A Srar reporter had a talk today with Com- missioner Roosevelt concerning the attacks being made in certain quarters upon the civil service law and the vague talk of an attempt to repeal the law this winter. While not dig- nifying these attacks by attributing to them any power to injure the reform, Mr. Roosevelt speaks very plainly as to the merits of the case and as to party obligations to sustain the law. “The repeal of the law,” he said, ‘ora failure to appropriate for its enforcement twice the amount of money now appropriated would be an immense evil. For any Congressman to at- tack civil service reform would be an evil act; for-a republican to do so would be party- treachery—a base breach of faith.” “Do you think these attacks come from any powerful source?" the reporter asked. “They come from three classes of men. Those who cannot get office,and probably could not anyhow, comfort themselves by attacking civil service reform. Those whose political power depends upon nothing but their capacity for ped political onage are, of course, OP} dtoit. The ot class is composed of dull people deluded by the other two.” “Do you think there is any danger of a repeal of the law?” “No; for if nothing else stood in the way, the President's veto would prevent this. The President would certainly veto any act repeal- ing the law, and by no possibility could the op- position get strength to pass it over his veto.” “May Congress not fail to make an appro- priation?” “Ihave too much faith in the majority of members of Congress to believe that such a ty is strongly in favor of “and every republican who acts against it is a bolter.” re not the democrats pledged to its sup- ‘Iam a republican,” was the reply, “and I cannot speak for the democratic party at all.” THREE ARMY PLUMs. Will They Go to Army Officers or to Out- siders? Secretary Proctor is occupying his spare time before the return of the President examining the applications of candidates for the vacancies that are to occur next week in the subsistence and quartermaster’s departments of the army through the retirement of a couple of officers on account of age. These are Col. Amos Beck- with, subsistence department, and Capt, Chas, H. Hoyt,quartermaster’s department, the former retiring October 4 and the latter September 30. Besides these there is also another vacancy that has been left unfilled since the retirement of Col, Wm. W. Burns, subsistence department, September 1, because it was then thought best to wait and fill all three at once. These retire- ments necessitate the appointment of two com- missaries of subsistence, with the rank of cap- tain, and of one assistant quartermaster, with the same rank—three fairly good patron- |, age plums, It is ordinarily presupposed that such vacancies shall be filled by promotion from the line of the army, and, of course. service men declare that they should be so filled, but there 1s a belief growing that Secretary Proctor and the Presi- lent intend to take advantage of a law a daring the Arthur admfnistration, which pro- vided that such appointments might be made from on life. i. law was gga by Dp gress out muc! position, ant with but little notin. Soon after its gam) President Arthur appointed Henry . lainsworth, 8 broth: -in-la to bea tain in the quartermaster’s department, President Cleveland, however, refused to use his oH ‘tunities in this direction and insisted on filling all vacancies in these departments from the line of the army, arguing that, in his opinion, the appointments should be made by promotion as rewards for services in the army. THE STAFF APPOINPMENTS. It is now said that law is to be revived and officers are feeling pretty blue over the pros- pect. These staff appointments are regarded as capital prizes by them, and if tae appointing powers should decide to widen their field of outside patronage by availing themselves of the old law, of course the chances for pro- motion beyond the slow routine of line re- tirements and death will be ma- terially lessened. The adjutant general's department, the pay department and the ord- nance department are so constituted by law that vacancies must be filled from the army, while the quartermaster's, medical, subsistence and judge advocate's departments are open to civilians. , if the outside-appointment policy is followed in the designations to be made to the vacancies next week it may be laid down as a pretty sure thing that during the next four years the staff chances of army officers, which have heretofore been one of the ok pil on their horizon, will be lessened yy half, It is regarded as quite likely that in case the new papeictees are civilians they will be recruited from the ranks of the Grand Army of the Republic. The retirement of Cal. Beck- with will cause the promotion of Lieut. Col. George Bell to be colonel, Maj. Michael Small to be lieutenant colonel, and Capt. Chas, B, Penrose to be ON ACCOUNT OF THE STRIKE. American Cattlemen Stranded in London Without Means to Get Home. The United States consul general at London, Hon, John C, New, in a recent dispatch to the State department calls attention to the peculiar hardships suffered ‘by American cattiemen during the great strike in London. He says: “It has been the custom for many years for large consignments of cattle to be shipped here in the care of men who are paid small sum upon reaching this port, and are given a pass entitling them to a return passage on the same vessel, which generally starts upon its return in a week, This pass can be exchanged for its cash equiv- alent, about thtee pounds sterling, the ex- pense of a steerage passage to New York. Ag the strike prevents the unloading or reloading of these vessels they cannot return at the time specified, and in consequence THESE CATTLE MEN ARE LEFT HERE destitute and unprovided for, unless they sell their passes, to provide means of living, and if they do this they have no way of returning to their homes, They are under no obligations, unloads moral or legal, to assist in the ing of vessels and an attempt on to do this is attended wit serious nal hands of the strikers. During the past week there have been fully one hundred of these cattlemen at this office asking that I either pro- + | vide them means of living or a return sc cops Oe steamship companies to do it. My inability to do either has caused consider- able trouble and complaint. Mr. Thomas H. Sherman, the consul of the United States at Liver, £ fs ip L Telegrams to The Star. ALL-AMERICAS OONGRESS.

Mrs. Gurley’s Latest Story of the Child’s Abduction. Curcaa, Sept. 24.—A dispatch from Joliet, TIL, says: Mrs, Josie Gurley, who was con- vieted of abducting little Anna Redmond and sentenced to Joliet prison for five years for the crime, has made a confession which she claims is the only true story regarding the abduction of the Redmond child. Mrs. Gurley had just been informed of Harvey Gurley’s incarcera- tiou in Wisconsin for bigamy and her anger against Gurley, to save whom from prison she had perjured herself, she said led to the con- fession. Her story in brief is as follows: PBIOR TO THE ABDUCTION @ friend of Harvey Gurley named Dick Ryan, Gurley, Mrs. Parson snd Annie Allen were, in connection with aman named McGee of To- ledo, Ohio, getting up a theatrical company. McGee wrote them that to complete the com- pany they must procure a bright little girl who could learn to sing and dance. Acting upon this Ryan planned the abduction of the Ked- mond child. Annie Allen was not an actress, but was stage struck, and the conspirators agreed to secure her a place in the troupe for her stealing the chil Gurley promised by Ryan for his ‘services in committing the crime, On the day of the abduction the child came out to play about 10 o'clock, and was soon enticed away by Annie Allen, who was met further down the street by Gurley and Miss Parsons. Here a carriage was in waiting and the four entered and were driven to the home of Mrs. Parsons, Inthe meantime the child had been rendered almost unconscious from the effects of eating drugged candy. Two days later the child was brought to Mrs, Gurley's home on State street. CONTINUING, MRS, GURLEY SAID: “I did not learn that the child was a stolen one until one day in November. I was out for a walk and called at Mr. Parsons’, having the child with me. While there a man came alon; who sew the child and said: ‘That is Anna Redmond.’ Mr, Parsons pushed the child into the house and shut the door and then turning tothe man said with a laugh, ‘You are mis- taken. Thatis my son’s little daughter.’ The moment he had passed on Mrs. ns flew into a terrible and bundied me off home with thechild. I was so flustered and scared at whatI had heard that I todo. When Gurley heard that the child out he gave me a terrible beating and that I could not get out of oa Dick Ryan came to the house and then threatened me if I said a word about the child. SAID THEY WOULD KILL ME. Ryan first tried to teach the child to read and then to make her sing and dance, but she would not learn easily, They whipped her and and they made me whip her because she would not learn. It was Ryan's original intention to have the company ready to start on Janu- ary 1, but jsomething jinterfered with his lans and the date was changed to = 1. One day Gurley came home and said be was going to put the child in an orphan asylum and leave her there until they were bese | for the road. Well, the child was discovered in February and the theatrical scheme ot Ryan and Gurley fell through.” Mrs. Gurley says that Gurley often beat her and she was afraid he would kill her and that she was led to tell the stories she told prior to and at the time of the trial by the conspirators, who would send her threatening notes in food taken to her at the jail, ——— GOSSIP FROM LONDON. The French Government Getting Over its Fright—One Result of the Strike.

THE REPRESENTATIVES OF HONDURAS AND BOLIVIA EXPRESS THE GREAT ANTICIPATIONS OF THEIR PEOPLE AT THK RESULT OF THE CONGRESS— CLOSER RELATIONS WITH THE UNITED STATES. New Yorx, Sept. 24 —At 6 o'clock this morn- ing a reception committee, composed of Hon. Charles B. Flint, commissioner to the interna- tional American congress; F. A. Peroza, G. F. Bassett, C. B.

In conversation with Senor Zelaya, delegate from Honduras, that gentleman said: “ j People are very enthusiastic over this inter- | national congress and expect many advan- tageous results from it. We wish to develop | our mining and agricultural interests, but our | mines are what we want to see in operation us soon as possible. We need railroads and an enlargement of our commerce with foreign | countries, especially the United States. All classes in our country desire closer relations with your people.” In speaking of the present foreign trade of Honduras Senor Zelaya said that it was now controlled by England and France; that those countries were reaping all the benefit and were opposed to opening up of all the South American coun by others than themselves, and that the one main result hoped for by bis countrymen from this con- | gress was the immediate influx of American trade aud American enterprise in developing the country. WHAT BOLIVIA WANTS, Senor Juan Francisco Velarde said in rela- tion to Boli “We wish to develop our min- ing and agricultural interests. Mining is the principal industry and always will be. We have rich geld and silver mines. Our copper mines are equal to any, and we have one of the rich- est tin deposits in the world. England monopo- lizes the trade of our country and, of course, will not advance our industries to the injury of her own. What we wish is to have the United States become our principal commercial con- ection.” dee GONE TO ELKINS. | The President to View One of the Wild- | est Sections of West Virginia.

There was e heavy rain atthe time and Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. Davis, who were to have been of the party, decided not to go.

Torgxa, Kax., Sept. 24.—The inhabitants of Rossville, a village 16 miles from bere, were terrorized Sunday night by a crazy farmer named Jacob Kuykendall. With his wife he was visiting his father at Rossville. Suddenly be was seized with violent mania, and drove all the family excep’ his wife from the house at the muzzle of arevolver. Mrs, Kuykendall attempted to quiet him, but without avail, Finally the muniac became so violent that she was forced ‘TO FLEE FOR HER LIFE, but her husband shot and fatally wounded her Just as she passed through the outer door. ‘The | shooting attracted the villagers and an attempt was made to capture the madman, who had in the meantime barricaded the doors and win- dows, Standing guard with a loaded revolver in an upper window he defied the crowd and kept his would-be captors at bay. Finally entrance was gained at the rear of the house and the capture made in a novel manner. A large syringe was filled with chloroform and the contents thrown upon the maniac, The fumes of the liquid rendered him unconscious, ach The Neversink Stolen.
