Anmy Ornpers.—Lieut. Col. Avery M. Roberts, corps of engineers, has been ordered from Philadelphia to Fort Mifflin, on inspection duty; Capt. Stanhope E. Blunt, ordnance de- partment, formerly on Gen. Sheridan's staff, has been ordered to the National armory at Springfield; Capt. John E.

The con- tract calls for 1.100 horse-power. It is reported the ship made 1,400, an excess of 300. The speed by shore marks was 15 knots per hour for a distance of 17 mifes; 13 knots is all that was demanded. It appears that this little vessel has exceeded her contract horse-power by 21 per cent, while the speed is exceeded by 13}¢ percent. The Petrel was built from the de- partment designs in competition with the ves- sels built from British plans imported by the last administratio: Tur Preswext has recognized Nephtali Guerrero Larrain as consul general of Chili in the United states, Ay Examrvation ror Torocrapnic Arps in the geological survey will be held at the rooms of the civil service commission at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, the 23dinstant.

Laxp Questions IN OxLAnoma.—Acting Land Commissioner Stone has decided that a soldier in the regular army has the right to make a homestead entry in Oklahoma, but he would be required to observe the law as to residence. This law requires the person mak- ing the entry to reside on the land for a period of five years before patent can issue, Acting Commissioner Stone also rendered an opinion to the effect that a homesteader in Oklahoma may use the clay on his land to make bricks to sell for building purposes; that the timber grown on the land may be used for fuel, provided it is cut off lands in process of clearing for cultivation, but that it cannot be cut merely for the purpose of burning.

Mount, late of the third artil- lery, has been appointed custodian of the Washington monument to fill the vacancy caused by the promotion of Mr. Thomas to higher duties. It will be remembered that Capt. Mount’s resignation from the army was accepted by the President about last Thanks- giving Day under rather peculiar circum- stances against the captain’s will. He had, some months before, given his resignation to his colonel, with the understanding that it was to be forwarded to the Secretary of War upon a certain happening, but with a month’s warn- ing. The resignation was sent in, but, Capt. Mount claimed. without warning, and his friends made quite a fight to have the accept- ance of the resignation revoked. This, how- ever, was found to be im ible under the Poly og Capt. Mount had go. Since then e STRUGGLED TO REDEEM HIMSELF and has succeeded. For some time he hada hard time, but finally succeeded in securing a position under Col. Jno, M. Wilson, commis- sioner of public buildings and grounds, who took an interest in his welfare. He started him at the bottom of the ladder asa laborer, and as opportunity came and his confidence in the man increased he promoted him until he put him in charge of the property at the gov- ernment gardens at #60 a month. The ex-cap- tain developed sterling qualities as a worker, and was steady and diligent. Last Saturday the vacancy at the monument occurred and Col. Wilson could think of no better man than Mount. The place pays $1,200 a year and isa boon to the captain and his family. It is under- stood that an effort will be made at the next session of Congress to have Capt, Mount re- stored to the servic A Dishonest Internal Revenue Official. Attorney General Miller has instructed the United States district attorney at Omaha to institute criminal proceedings against J. C. Calhoun, fex-deputy collector of internal reve- nue, and bookkeeper there. His father was the former collector, The charges—to which Calhoun has made a confession—are that he falsified the vouchers for pay of employes in the office, also that he scaled their salaries and pocketed the reduction. He also was in the abit of confiscating money sent to the office to pay for retail licences, telling the applicant to go on with his business pending the receipt of some blank licenses from Washington. The father of the young man has paid all shortages and has promised to pay any that may be covered in the future. The case will be brought before the grand jury. Fourth Auditor’s Office Reorganized. The office of the fourth anditor of the Treas- ury has been reorganized by order of Auditor Lynch with a view to a facilitation of the work of that bureau, He has divided it into four divisions, to be known respectively as navy- pay and pension division, paymaster’s division, general claims division, and bookkeepers and record division. The marine and railroad ac- counts have been transferred from the navy- ay and pension division to the paymasters ivision. Mileage claims of officers and allot- ment claims have been transferred from the navy-pay and pension division to the general claims division. The bookkeeping accounts have been transferred from the paymasters division to the record division, hence that divi- sion wili hereafter be known as the book- keepers and record division. Answers to let- ters from the commissioner of pensions from attorneys and private individuals asking infor- mation about the status of persons who served in the navy have been transferred from the general claims division to the bookkeeping and record division. Claims for prize money have been transferred from the record division to the general claims division. Chief Clerk of the New Library Building. Mr. Geo, Thomas, who has been custodian of the Washington monument for many years, has resigned that office to accept an appointment as chief clerk of the new Congressional library building under Mr, Bernard Green, which was tendered him by Gen. Casey. This is a pro- motion, and Mr. Thomas has received many congratulations, He was yesterday the recip- ient of a complimentary testimonial from his fellow-employes in care of the monument, who waited upon him a short time before the shaft was closed for the day and presented him with a fine basket of flowers and a box of choice Havanas. He managed to express his surprised thanks for the courtesy, his appreciation of the compliment and his regret at parting from his former companions. Recruiting Service of the Army. The detail for the recruiting service of the army for the year beginning October 1, 1889, bas been announced as follows: Lieut, Col, Wm. H. Jordon, nineteenth infantry, to com- mand the depot at Columbus barracks, Ohio, relieving Major Wm. L. Kellogg, nineteenth infantry; Lieut. Col. Daingerfield Parker, twentieth infantry. to command the depot at David's Island, New York harbor, relieving Lieut. Frederick Mears, fourth infantry; Major Keuben F, Bernard, eighth cavalry, to com- mand the depot at Jefferson barracks, Missouri, relieving Major David Perry, sixth cavalry, One company officer (preferably a first lieu- tenant) from the second, fourth, sixth, eighth and tenth cavalry, and the second, fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth, twelfth, fourteenth, six- teenth, eighteenth, twentieth, twenty-second and twenty-fourth infantry, will be selected by the respective regimental commanders actually with their regiments and ordered to report in person to the superintendent of the recruiting service, New York city, by October 1, 1889, Gen. Schofield, in his order, urges’ upon the officers the importance of the recruiting serv- ice. He says: “Recruiting officers are re- wired to give close personal attention to all their duties, and every effort must be made to prevent the improper enlistment of minors or of men of vicious or doubtful habits.” East Tennessee and the Exposition.

Nasuvitze, Tenn., July 11.—When the north- bound Louisville and Nashville train pulled into this city at 10:33 this morning a crowd of people surged around the car to see John L. Sullivan, who was known to be on board. A rumor soon obtained circulation that a requisi- tion was in the hands of the police, several of whom had boarded the car, Some discussion and finally a struggle was seen in the car, and an officer reached over with hand-cuffs in his hand and, seizing the slugger’s arm, pulled him out into the aisle of the car. Sullivan re- sisted. Muldoon, who occupied the same seat, put his head out of the window and cried to the crowd: “Gentlemen, I demand American protection!” His patriotic wail was greeted with a variety of responses. Some cheered Sullivan and begged him to KNOCK THE COPPERS OUT.” Others cried ‘Hurrah for the Nashville po- lice,” “Hit him with your club,” &. One youngster, who was hanging on the outside of the car window, ducked his head behind the sill and informed the crowd that “the cops have out their guns.” After a brief struggle Sullivan was taken from the car and hustled toa car- riage. In the scuffle he drew back to knock down a policeman, when Chief Clack stuck a pistol in his face and told Him if he struck he (Clack) would kill him. The officers next grabbed Charley Johnson of Brooklyn, Sullivan's backer, who resisted vigorously, but finally began to cry with pain, Duringall this scrimmage Mul- oon sat quietly by and was undisturbed. Mike Cleary, Sullivan's other second, hid in the ex- citement, and another, named Lynch, jumped off the train. Only Johnson and Sullivan were detained, though the others were wanted, The arrest was made by authority of a tele- gram from Gov. Lowry of Mississippi to the Nashville chief of police, Sullivan has re- tained ex-Attorney General A. H. Washington, who says that the officers went beyond their authority and cannot hold their men, An im- mediate attempt will be made to get the parties out on A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS. Gov. Lowry’s telegram offers a reward of 1,000, and it is believed that if released on the present charge Sullivan will be rearrested in order to secure time for requisition to be ob- tained, The arrested belligerents are now at the police station in conference with their at- torneys, KILRAIN IN ST. LOUIS. What He and Mitchell Have to Say About the Fight. Sr. Lovurs, July 11.—Jake Kilrain, the de- feated pugilist; Charley Mitchell, champion boxer of England; Pony Moore, Mitchell's father-in-law, and Johnny Murphy, the game feather weight who was recently pounded out of shape by “Spider” Weir, arrived in St. Louis this morning at 7:30, via the Iron Mountain railway. There had been so many conflictin; reports about the great defeated and his fol- lowers that only a moderate sized crowd had assembled at the depot, but those who were there were brimful of curiosity and peered eagerly into the various cars attached to the locomotive, discovering nothing. An Associated Press reporter hurried’ to the smoking com- partment of the sleeper in which the Kilrain party were located, and in a few minutes Charley Mitchell cautiously opened the door and asked if there were ANY “BLOODY COPPERS” ABOUT, He was assured that the police force slum- bered peacefully, and upon receipt of this in- formation brought forth his principal, the once champion of the world, followed by the redoubtable Murphy, who rubbed his swollen head ruefully and said: “Now Pe look at that nut of mine, will you? and I did nothing but stand there in the sun and hoid a bottle.” Kilrain looks badly, but he is aa far from the rave as before the fight inso far as the in- fare received in the battle are concerned, His face is badly bruised, both eyes blackened, lips cut, but not severely, and his jaw giving evidence of some of the taps thereon from the brawny fist of the pride of Boston. Kilrain walks without assistance, but is far from frisky, and especially was this noticeable in his alight- ing from and mounting the steps of the car, He is also a badly frightened man. and fears Governor Lowry more than be did John L. He still looks to Mitchell and obeys his orders like a child. WHAT MITCHELL SAYS, “We can’t talk here, you know,” said Mitchell, “Let's get off to the windward of these curious blokes and get into our car and then we'll be easier, you know,” to all of which Pony Moore nodded a vigorous assent, and poor Jake Kil- rain followed meekly. Seated in the Cincin- nati sleeper Mitchell opened with the statement that the fight was lost use Jake was not in shape. “i knew he was sick and I asked him if he did not feel badly, and he deceived me by saying no—now didn’t you, Jake?” ‘But I felt well enough to ‘do him,’” growled the fallen idol of Baltimore. “The whole story in a nut shell,” continued Mitchell, ‘can be quickly told. Jake had no time to get fit and the sun knocked him out. The battle was fair and square and we have no complaints to make.” “But didn’t Sullivan assist the sun in knock- ing out Kilrain?” SULLIVAN ASSISTED THE SUX. “Some,” said Mitchell. ‘Yes, Sullivan did get in some damaging punishes in the third, and, I believe, in the seventh rounds.” “Just look at my head,” interjected feather- ht Murphy, who clung to the Beit that Od ol wud not John L Kilrain W. ‘But’s it’s a bloody shame to ui BE OSE i TWO CENTS. the fight, Jake,” suggested the Associated Press reporter. JAKE SAYS HE WAS FAIRLY WHIPPED. “Well, he whipped me,” replied Jake, “and he did it fairly, The truth is I had but two weeks’ training. The heat assisted, but I was not I don't blame anybody and acknowle: defeat. I was over-confident, ec po pee a= — I ek Sullivan, and shall try for another go at him.’ This statement was made in a disheartened way, however, and it was clearly evident that Kilrain is not over anxious for another battle. “I feel badly about losing the fight,” said Kilrain, “but am not suffering very much hysically. It meant a fortune to me. If I ba won I need not have fought again, but now must.” Mitchell says he will challenge Sullivan for another battle, and Pony Moore stated he stood ready to back his son-in-law for any amount. aot ami go direct to Baltimore via Cin- cinnat GOV. LOWRY’S INTENTIONS. He will Endeavor to Bring All Interested. in the Fight to Justice. ‘NewOr.eans,July 11.—The Times-Democrat's Jackson, Miss., special correspondent called on Governor Lowry last night. He was particu- larly amused at the criticism the New Orleans papers had given him in his action to sup- press the Sullivan-Kilrain fight, but he said before he got through with all those who had anything to do with the fight the laugh would be on the other side, The constitution of the state, he said, forbids the military authorities from doing anything except under the direction of the civil authorities, and for that reasor he was powerless to prevent it. “However,” he said, “I will see that every man, including the Queen and Crescent authorities, especiatly Mr. Carroll, general superintendent, who aided and abetted the fighters, will be held to a strict accountability of the law and will be prose- cuted to the end, Affidavits will be at once made out aguinst all parties concerned, and if they do not come to answer the charges I will issue requisitions for them. I will not see the law go flagrantly violated, and in the event of Kilrain’s death they will be prosecuted for murder.” The governor seems determined on this matter, ——o———— A TENANTS’ DEFENSE LEAGUE. A New Organization of Which Parnell Is President. Special Cable Dispatch to Tux EVENING STAR. Loxpon, July 11.—In view of the fact of the great interest of O’Brien’s announcement yes- terday of a tenants’ defense league under Parnell’s presidency to oppose the landlords’ syndicate I interviewed Davitt this morning on the significance of the new departure. He says it was arranged between Parnell, O’Brien and himself and has his heartiest sympathy. It will have two immense advantages, first, to reunite the Irish part. The plan of campaign served a temporary end, but neither Parnell, the leader of the conservative wing, nor the extreme wing, took part in it, The cam- paigners were the men in the gap. Now, Par- nell will be the man’on horseback, again lead- ing a united party; secondly, it will be a new start and generate a fresh amount of steam. I pointed out that the national league will now fall into the background and therefore the unionists will say, ‘See, we have killed the national movement. ‘They are obliged to fall back on an agrarian move.” Davitt replied that this did not matter; a rose by any other name ogee as sweet. The rick people would work for home rule just the same, whatever title was given the organi- zation. He added that a convention would soon assemble at Dublin, under Parnell, which he hoped would formulate a program to rally the democracies of the three kingdoms.
