Clearing the Way for His Coming Va- cation at Deer Park. ‘HIS TRIP THERE DELAYED AND HE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GO TO CAPE MAY THIS WEEK—SECRE- TARY BLAINE AND MINISTER PHELPS BREAK- Yast WITH BIM. The President is-very busy this week getting his work out of the way as far as possible that he may be freer to enjoy his vacation at Deer Park. Heretofore he has been taking rest by snatches—a day, two days or three at a time. It is only a few of these short trips, even, he has been able to take. When he gets his fam- ily to Deer Park he proposes to reverse‘the order of things—to work by snatches. He will come to Washington only when duty demands, Duty may be mote tyrannical and exacting than he now expects, but he is looking forward to spending most of what vacation he can take in complete rest with his family. In order to get through with his work he has been obliged to confine the office-seeking callers to the exact hours prescribed, as far as such a thing is pos- sible. Washington News and Gossip.

Congressmen had begun to encroach upon his time considerably by calling an hour earlier than that fixed for receiving them. For the it few days, though, they have discovered Tint thie did not hasten mantiere much, because they found the President very busy. ' With all the work upon him, however, he has found that it will be impossible for him to go to Snake 4 the end of the week to bring Mrs. ‘ison home. He will have to remain at the White = House and she will come on with the children SUBURBAN PROPERTY. — SUMMER RESORTS, SPECIALTIES. THE DEER PARK TRIP DELAYED. He will probably have also to delay his trip to Deer Park for a few days longer. It was at first thought that he and Mrs. Harrison, with the children, would start for that resort not later than the lst of July, and that he would go onfrom there to keep his appointment at Woodstock. It is pretty certain now that he will be oblighed to stay in Washington until he starts for Woodstock, and the Deer Park trip will have to wait upon this appointment. BREAKFASTED WITH THE PRESIDENT. This morning Sécretary of State Blaine and Mr. William Walter Phelps breakfasted with the President, The callers to-day occupied the President until nearly 10’clock. Mr.-Halford also came in for his share. A delegation of DISTRICT COLORED MEN headed by C, A. Stewart, John Freeman, R. H. Gleanes, W. H. Jones, George D. Graham, in all numbering about twenty-five,presented him with a petition asking-for the appointment of Perry Carson to be recorder of” ds for the District. Mr. Halford heard what they had to say and placed their papers where they would receive attention, Senators Spooner, Hiscock and Plumb talked with the President about some things they and their constituents are interested in, Repre- sentatives Browne and Owen, of Indiana; Cole- man, Struble, Flood, Scranton and Casey com- pleted the congressional callers. ——_or—_____ A SATISFACTORY APPOINTMENT. Minister Phelps.at Berlin the Right Man ia the Right Place. ‘This administration inherited the Semoan controversy from it8 predecessor. The en- tanglement threatened did not seem easy of settlement when the commission, of which Messrs. Phelps, Kasson, and Bates, were the members, was appointed. These three were men of recognized ability, but Mr. Phelps naturally went to the head, and to his efforts sre attributed the harmonious settlement of the difficulty. His ability and tact were at once felt by the foreign commissioners, and he succeeded first ig making a good impression upon the German members of the commission and bringing about a better feeling. This led to the approach of the subject in a friendly and amiable spirit, and the result was entirel, satisfactory to America, Mr. Phelps showe: himself the in diplomacy to the ablest dip- lomats he had to meet, and even while win- ning a victory from them he made snch warm friends in the German foreign office that it be- came their earnest desire it he should re- main with them as the representative of Amer- ica, This chimed with the purpose of the mt.

Yesterday afternoon as Policeman John A.

He knocked at the door, Which was opened by an old colored womer ‘Rachel Brown. She occupies the house and invited the officer in.

Owing to circumstances entirely beyond ite control, Tae Star is obliged to ask the indul- gence of its readers and advertising patrons for any shortcomings that may be observable in its columns for a day or two, as well as for such delay gs may occur in the delivery of the paper to city subscribers. The late prolonged and heavy rains, joined to the jarring of the powerful machinery used in printing the large daily editions of the paper, caused the foundation and side wall of the boiler and engine rooms to give way last night along the line of the deep excavation be- ing made for the new Stan building, carrying with it and partially destroying the main shaft- ing and some portions of the engine, thus en- tirely cutting off steam power from the presses and other machinery of the office. Happily the presses of the National Tribune can accommodate the Star's forms, with a slight modification, and through the kindness of its proprietor, Captain Lemon, and those in charge during his absence in Europe, the mechanical facilities of that office have been placed at the disposal of Tue Stag; so, until other provision can be made, the several editions of the paper will be printed there. Meantime arrangements are in progress to secure electric motor power sufficient, as is hoped, to drive all Te Stan's presses, as usual, within a few days. Until that is accomplished it will be necessary to close the several forms of the paper considera- bly earlier than heretofore, and necessa- rily, also, some subscribers will receive their copies of the paper somewhat later. To reduce -these drawbacks to a minimum, advertising patrons are urgently requested to send in their announcements more promptly than customary, and as early in the day as possible. On its part, Tar Star promises that all interruptions consequent upon the accident shall be as slight and brief as they can be rendered by well directed energy and liberal money expenditure¢ and in connection it takes this occasion to return its sincere thanks to Capt. Lemon, proprietor of the National Tri- bune, to the Washington Post company, to Messrs, Judd & Detweiler, to the United States Electric Light Company, to the Washington Ar- chitectural and Bridge Works, and to Messrs, Pettit & Dripps for assistance proffered and services rendered, Such neighborly kindnesses go far toward diminishing the results of dis- aster and misfortune, and they are appre- ciated at their full value, Goverxmest Recerers To-pay. — Internal revenue, $489,030; customs, $841,083, Vice-Prestpent Morton is at the Arlington, ConxGRaTULatiNa CommissioseR Roosevert.-- The president and officers of the Civil-Service | child’s mother was Martha Walker, a colored Reform association, of Brookline, Mass., have | Woman, who lives at No. 42 McCullough street, written a congratulatory letter to Civil-Service | who had left the child at the house last Thurs- Commissioner Roosevelt, in which they encour- | day and promised to call for it shortly.

A Rumor That it is Disbanded and a | pression Denial. Cutcaco, June 27.—A rumor has been in- dustitously circulated to the effect that Ed- ward Spellman, the district member of the Clan-na-Gael and millionaire distiller of Peoria, has disbanded camp 20 with a view to obstruct- ing the investigation of its records. Nobody in Chicago seems to have received an official notice of-Spellman’s action,and Judge Longen- ecker is inclined to doubt the authenticity of the rumor. The judge said last Ltireery aed had every reason to believe that it was not 5 but in the absence of facts he was unwilling to cast discredit on it. FATHER DORNEY'S TESTIMONY IMPEACHED. The fact leaked out yesterday that Father Dorney’s testimony regarding Alexander Sulli- van’s financial standing at the time of his board of trade transactions was practically im- Preece fone witness who was called imme- tely him. Father Dorney testified that when he was requested to investigate the accounts of Sullivan for the purpose of ascer- taining the truth of malfeasance made against him, he discovered that Mr. Sullivan was in a very sound finangjal condition as the result of his own business and commercial ulations, and added that on being referred by Mr. Sulli- van to Frank E. Johnson, John T. Lester & Co.'s manager, he found from the books that Sullivan had within two years cleared $50,000 on his transactions through that firm. Frank Johnson himself was the next witness called, and he vere aap blank that Father at Dorney had ever his firm for the pm- pose of making any such investigation as that mentioned; he positively stated that Father Dorney had never examined the books for any purpose, and thatin fact he had never seen and did not know Mr. Dorney at all. Burke Said to be a British Subject. Wnonrse, Max., June 27.—It is stated here on what appears to be most reliable authority that Burke is s British subject, and as such en- titled to certain rights of citizenship which he would not otherwise be able toclaim. One of the advant he would gain by this would be that under the extradition laws of Manitoba it would be absolutely for the prosecu- tion to prove that ‘he-wes direotly ed bearer] with the murder, Making out « prima facie case would not be sufficient to warrant extra- dition, and it would be operation here all the i urder, pa pes Nl, the rats lawyer, was in- by the United Press correspondent last evening and asked if this was to be the line of defense.

Spellman, the dis- trict delegate for the Clan-na-Gael, in reference to the disbanding of camp No. 20, of Chicago, last night stated opal that the camp was not disbanded as been stated and that it would not be. “The rumor isa sensational one,” he said, “and had no foundation so far as I know. Neither were the records of the camp burned. a Cook Piste opereicny = easily rep recor 6 cam] ‘ing to of- ficers of that division for then’ = “It has been said, Mr. aie, that you left Chicago ins bury, and that your action has created suspicion,’ “Yes, I heard that.

All the Arrangements for its Formation Completed. Loxpox, June 27.—While the newspapers have been printing column after column to demonstrate that a paper trust in England was impossible, and that the reports that such a trust was forming were absurd, the gentlemen interested in the scheme have been industrious, and to-day it is announced that all the ments are completed for a perfect monopoly of the paper business of the kingdom by a vast paper syndicate. Like most of the trusts re- cently formed in this country for the control of articles of common consumption, this scheme for a combination originated outside of the cir- cle of the manufacturers themselves. London financiers are at the bottom of this trust, as of most of the others, and their only interest is to make a heap of money by selling the shares of the paper trust.

Posed as an a and quick method of reaching their first pressing wants to divide the money which it holds equally among them, The sum which will be given to each will neces- sarily be small, but it will inspire them with the hope that the amount of money contributed for their relief may speedily become available and it will give @ better and a fresher oe to those who are now struggling to re-establish themselves in their lost employments and avocations, THE POSITION HERE 18 AS POLLOWS: The working people are offered ample em- ployment, and as they area people who own homes, they are sticking to Johnstown in spi of their present privations. Our merchants and tradesmen seeing this are quickly open: their stores in shanties or board buildings any type. We have thus on the one hands community needing enough supplies from the merchants to enable them to do a good busi- ness, and on the other hand the merchants making an earnest effort to supply this demand, If we can bring these two together and keep them together during the six ys, our community will again be self- sustaining. But already the inability of thepeople to purchase is causing great de- spondency upon the part of the merchants, which, if not speedily checked, will cause fur- ther want and hoplessness.
