Secretary Noble recently had circulated in the bureans of his department an order issued in April, 1880, by Secretary Schurz, which he announced was still in force and should be ob- served. The order was to the effect that impor- tunities for promotion by employes would be not only fruitless but might imperil their po- sitions. As this order was passed around in the Pension office the following verses in type- writer were pinned to it by an unknown poet: Alas! Alus! can it be 80, Must we no more indulge In opportunities to wain On vther clerks the bulge? Must we then hide our sense of worth ~ fe some Pour, timid dove, Despite the tact we want the earth Aud the plentitude thereot? But such is life. When skies seem bright The lurking storm-clouds menace, Ard when we think we've reached the goal ‘We find our name is “Dennis,” FALSE SWEARING SOMEWHERE. Contradictory Testimony in Reference to tbe Grand Rapids, Mich., Post Office. The civil service commission has made a re- port on the post office at Grand Rapids, Mich, Charges were made against the postmaster, Mr. Blair, and against the then chief clerk of the railway mail service, Mr. F. A. Hudson. The charges are backed up by sworn affidavits and are of so serious a nature that the commis- sion, in view of their lack of power to subpwena witnesses and administer oaths, deem it proper to turn the whole matter over to the Post Office department. Accordingly they submit to that department the affidavits taken. The only affidavit affecting Mr. Blair is that of McCon- ville, which is explicitly contradicted by the affidavits of both Mr. Blair and Mr. Hud-on; but in the case of Mr, Hudson all seven attida- vits charge him with having collected. or at- tempted to collect, money for political pur- poses trom government employees in the gov- ernment buiiding at Graud Kapids last fall, If the assertions contained in these attidavits are not disproved or explained by other evidence the commissioners beiieve that they WARRANT MR, HUDSON'S INDICTMENT under sections 11, 12, 13. 14 and 15 of the civil service act, Bot Mr. Hudson has submitted, together with bis aftidavit denying specifically all the charges, the affidavit of the chairman of the local democratic purty organization deny- ing that Mr. Hadson turned over such sums as were alleged, and also copies of letters from two witnesses denying the very facts that were set forth iu their affidavits. as well as letters acter or the improper animus of the men who make afijdavits against him, “If Mr. iudson ix guilt; “he should be prosecuted; says the report, he is not guilty i then the men swearing falsely against him should themselves be prosecuted for entering into # peculiarly infamous conspiracy blacken his chara ter.” If the assertions coutained in these affidavits are not disproved or explained by other evi- dence, ‘Le commissioners believe that they warrant ir, Hudson's indictment under sec- tions 11, 12, 13. 14, 15 of the civil service act. ‘Lhe Postmaster General will read the report and then devermine upon the proper action to be taken. TRADE WITH JAPAN AND COREA, Russian Coal Oli Driving the American Article Out of the Market. to The annual! report of Consul John M. Birch, at Nagasaki. Japan. to the Secretary of State, contains the statement that kero-ene continues to be the principal article of import direct from the United States, He says: “Two direct curgoes arrived from Philadelphia, and some reshipped American kerosene reached bere from both Shanghai aud Yokohuma.

Some 15,000 casex have been shipped to Viudiwostock, the neighboring mili- tury post in Siberia, during the year. and 10,000 cases to Hakodate. Samples of Russian oil from Batoum have reached this port. The cases and cans are very similar to the Ameri- can. The oil is water-white and called 130 de- grees test. It is not at present as weil received as the American urticle, but its friends claim that it will eventually compete with it if it can be laid down in Japan cheaper. The advanced cost of oil in the United States the latter part of the pust yeur wul.

The article coutinued it believed here that Russian oil will ultimately drive American oil out of Japan, owing to its superiority and to the great influence here of the firm which has under- taken the business, Both English und Japan- exe Lie poy welcome Russian oil tbat it may put au end to America’s monopoly in this branch of trade in Japan.” this news, we are informed,” says the con- sul, “has been received in Russia with great joy. ‘The oi! men of Russia hope to ultimately drive American oil from the old world, leaving only America for the oil men of America. TEXTILE FABRICS, Continuing, Consul Birch remarks: “A fea- ture of the import trade at this port, which does not figure in the returns, is the trade in certain staples for Corea, such as sbirtings, Victoria lawns. drijls, &c, The large demand for sbirtngs iu Corea is mostly supplied with Manchester goods, which are simply traus- | Shipped here to the steamers plying between bond until sold.

It was Dr, Bayne’s day at the Adler house and when the ordinarily jovial medico came out after examining the patient there was no smile on his face. “It has simply resolved itself into a question of endurance,” said be to @ StaR reporter, “How long the fight will | continue it 18 not easy to predict, but it cannot lust much longer. Since my last visit there has been a perceptible failing; an increase of weuk- Bess anda consequent decrease of ability to cope with any of the changes which are liable to come at any moment.” ALLEVIATING THE WOUNDED MAN'S SUFFERINGS. Maurice Adler to-day is as comfortable as Any one probably could be under the cireum- stances, The water bed has alleviated his sufferings considerably and bas kept his tem- perature down to a figure where it is not doin; very much damage. This morning the clinical thermometer recorded 99 4-10 degrees, Adler's puise was, at the same time, 102, aud extremely feeble and fluctuating. His respirations were 22 to the minute and labored, bu: not as much so ax they were a fewdaysago. He has accom- modated himself to the condition in which he finds himself, and is, if such a thing is possi- ble, getting accustomed to it. Formerly he struggled with the breathing in his throat; now most of his breathing is abdominal in i nature, avd he naturally has lesa trouble than before. Last night brought with it a fair amount of sleep, and this morning Adler was evidently Tetremhed for a time, | His appetite is no better and that which be displayed but a short time since is entirely absent. WIS ATTENUATED BODY. A not unnatural feature of the case is the at- tenuation which has come of four weeks of suffering and confinement to a bed. At the time of the shooting Adler was quite fleshy,and his neck, which was pierced by the bullet from Ward’s pistol, was of more than average cir- cumference. The neck has been almost skele- tonized, while the weight of Adler's body has decreased from 25 to 30 pounds, FREE BATHS BADLY NEEDED. What the District Commissioners Say on the Subject. A good many people around town are talking quite vigorously about the pressing local neces- sity for free baths and are suggesting that the District Commissioners should take some action in the matter. A number of youthful lives have been lost during the past two or three weeks because the boys bathed in the Potomac, where the water was too deep forthem Free baths would, very probably, have saved these boys’ lives for a while, at least “lam very emphatically in favor of free baths,” said Coumissioner Douglass, “but the Commissioners can dv nothing officially towurd establishing them because there is no appro- pristion available. I speak feelingly on the subject of tree baths, for the city has not sent a drop of water ito the second story of my house for fourteeu years,” Commissioner Hine said he would be de- lig sted to see Washingtou provided with suit- ave baths where the public couid souk itself free of expense. He hoped the day was not fur distant when there wouid be uo necessity for the rapidiy-moving sigt so often seen on the river frout—a fully uniormed poiiceman in hot parsuit of a small boy, whose oniform was bid- den in some luuber pile oriu a bole in the bank of the river, i Major Raymond is an enthusiast on free baths, but bis enthusiusm is dampened, so to speak, because he can bave a free bath at bome as often as he wauts one. Personally, therefore. he ts pot interested in the scheme, but be is unselfi-b, and cousequeatly is wing to see others enjoy themselves, ‘Lhe Conimissiouers can be counted on as solid when it comes to asking Congress to aid in the extublishment of free baths along the Potomac front, a Auction Sale of Real Estate.

INFORMATION FOR PERSONS WHO INTEND TO VISIT THE CAMP—QEN. ORDWAT'S ORDER FIXING THE! ROUTINE OF BUTY—OTHER MATTERS OF L- TEREST. . The nearer the time comes for the opening of the District militia encampment the better becomes the prospect for its success. Almost all of the eqnipage necessary for its mainte- mance has becn delivered at the fort and is be- ing rapidly put in place. Lieut. Lemly has been at the fort with a number of men all this week arranging things and making ready to lay the tent floors. The other night the steamer | Thompson took down a large load of stuff and | completely filled the already loaded wharf. which caused confusion for a time. But Gen. Ordway sent down two four-horse teams the next day aud matters were soon straightened. AN ERRONEOUS IMPRESSION has obtained in the public mind as to the land- ing of visitors at the fort from the statement made in Saturday's Star that no excursion boats will be allowed to land passengers until 2p.m. The regularly landing steamers, the Norfolk boats and the Corcoran, will make their regular stops at the fort at 7 and 11 o'clock in the morning. and there can be no restriction put upon their passengers, so that if person desires he can easily reach the camp 80 as toxtay all day. It is probable that after 2 o'clock nearly every boat on the river will make frequent trips between the city and the camp—the Arrowsmith, the Law, the Mat- tano, the Pilot Boy, the Mary Washington. pos- sibly the Wakefield, and in fact everything that floats and can move will no doubt be into service. INFORMATION FOR VISITORS TO THE CAMP. The round trip will cost 25 cents. In order for persons to reach the camp in time for the parade at 6 o'clock they should take a boat leaving the city between 4 and 4:30, which will give them ampie time to make the 12-mile run and to climb the bluff to the camp. Folks who gofdown will be allowed. of course, to take lunches with them, although “all-day picnics” will be discouraged. There is to be a post-trader's store, where such things as ice cream and soda water can be bought by visit- ors as well as guardsmen, but nothing like lunches or solid or liquid refreshments are to be sold. It will not be wise for visitors to de- pend upon “‘the hospitality of their friends in the camp.” for the latter will in all “gaereeny be in bad positions to be very hospitable. Their messes are at regular hours, none but uardsmen will be fed in the mess balls, and tween meals a guard at the fort door will prevent promiscuous lunching. At 10 o'clock p.m. all boats must leave with their passengers. THE ROUTINE OF DUTY. Gen. Ordway has issued the following routine of duty to be observed during the encampment unless otherwise ordered: (1).

The Reading company manufactured the Molly Maguire, and with the aid of McParlans sud some ‘who wore the livery of heaven to ae devil in,’ be was made to do double serve t dur; the company did pot care about dim barging and create a false opinion of the workmen gen- lly, These were the reasons why the world as made to belli that the Molly was the legitimate offspring of the policy of insubordina- tion to constitutional authority, which the Reading company pursued then and continues to pursue to-day.
