Representative Randall is nearly over the fatigue of his trip to Washington and is feeling better today than he has for some time. He does not feel bad and his physician and friends do not think that there is anything in the least alarming in his condition. He is still in bed, because it is thought best that he should get as much rest as possible. He is an inveterate worker and as soon as he gets about he is apt to pitch in to work again.

An Official Inspection—It is Declared to be in Good Sanitary Condition. As stated in Saturday's Stan, several cases of diphtheria had developed among the pupils of the Arthur school building, and the health officer had decided to fumi- gate the building. The sickness created eome uneasiness among the parents of the pupils. The Commissioners were called upon for action, and Building Inspector Eatwisle and Inspector of Plumbing Robinson were called upon for report as to its sanitary condition, The report of Mr. Entwistle was forwarded to the health officer today and was to the effect that he had looked into —— ee ane heating arrangement found them perfect.

The plumbing and drainage was found to be in perfect order and the work entirely in accordance with the regulations, The heating and ventilation systems were thoroughly examined and found to be in the best of order and the dry-closet system free from auy defect. The doctor states that every precaution is being taken at the hoases where cases have occurred and that there is no cause for alarm as to the security of the pupils. sviahonssinoks PERMIT CLERK M’DEVITT. An Investigation in Progress and Prose- cution Probable. The caso of Permit Clerk McDevitt, who is charged with obtaining money from plumbers while he was in the employ of the District, as stated in Saturday's Stan, is creating a great deal of talk at the District building. The indications are, it is stated, that the amount obtained by him in this manner is large. The investigation is beirg pushed and already the clerk who is going over his books announces the discoveryof several discrepancies and there is no telling how much the amount will foot up afterall the books have been ex- amined, Several of Mr. McDevitt’s friends have come forward ready and anxious to make good any deficit, but as yet n toward settling the matter has been done. mat- ter is still aon the esenys of the Pprosecutin, attorne jor ie —«Dis- trict, There is kely to be some trouble in getting a warrant out for McDevitt's arrest, if the case is to be prosecuted, as sev- eral of the plumbers who have paid money to him refuse absolutely to swear out a warrant.

With the certainty that there is to be no extra session and that they will serve their terms out, the present officers of the House discuss with some complacency the prospects of the several candidates for their respective places, The speakership possibilities are also dis- cussed knowingly at the Capitol, where mem- bers are sure to go when they come to Wash- ington and where there is little of interest except remote political possibilities to talk abe: The sages of the Capitol, whether bare like Reed or not, pretty inthe opinion that ho will Be the next . They are nearly all ready to risk their reputation as prophets upon this prediction. The reason ust advanced is that the party cannot afford to ‘turn Reed down.” As to the officers of the House there are two or three things regarded as certain. Mo- Kee of Indiana is pected to postmaster, renin of Maryland, plumian isan tobe dour keeper and Col. John M. Carson of the Phila- delphia Ledger clerk.

Considerable interest is taken in the contest between Gen. Edward F. Feale and the regis- tration officers at Bladensburg over the right of the former to register as a voter in Prince George county, Md. Gen. Beale, who resides on Lafayette Square at the corner of H street, is the republican candidate for the state sena- tor from Prince George's county. About a week ago he applied for registration at Bladens- burg but was not permitted to register, the refusal being based upon the assertion that he ‘was nota resident of that county. General Beale made an appeal to the courts, and the case was heard at Upper Marlboro’ Saturday. In support of his cl to citizen- ship General Beale was put upon the stand, He said he was born in 1822 on Capitol Hill, in the District. He attended the Georgetown college from the age of nine to fourteen years. He then entered the navy, serving for many years. In 1875 he determined to take up his residence in Maryland, and he bought the Clark farm near Bladensburg, for $50,000. He had the house fitted up and furnished for occu- pancy by himself and family and had spent most of his time there since, except during the time he was minister to Austria, but had not slept there, for the reason that his wife had to be in Lolteeay to for medical attention, being an invalid. Since 1875,he said he had not claimed or sought citizenship elsewhere than in Prince George's county, M —_—$_———___ THE MARITIME CONFERENCE. The American Delegates Hold a Meet- ing Today.

The foot ball season was opened on Capitol Hill Saturday afternoon by a game between the Orients and the Kendall Green team, The match took place on the Orient’s grounds, back of Lincoln park, in the presence of a large and enthusiastic gathering, including many ladies, and was unusually close and exciting When time was called at the end of the sec- ond half neither side had scored a point.

Mr. Chandos interested himself in the rel, and promised to devote himself to the futherance of Mrs. Bloomfield Movre’s views inthe matter.

He hopes to drive them down to the basement where they can be easily caught New Carpets at rae Post Orrice Derant- meENtT.—During the summer months the floor in the office of the Postmaster General has been covered with matting, which gave the room a cool appearance. A breadth of brown linen with a red border covered the portion of the floor in front of the entrance to the Post- master General’s room, so as to protect the matting from the constant tramp of the army of office seekers. There is a slight lull in the rush cf callers at the Post Office depart- ment, and advantage has been taken of it to replace the matting with new carpet which has been put down on the ante room of the Postmaster General’s room and on his office floor and the floor of his private room, The two rooms occupied by Gen. Clarkson, the first assistant, have also appeared in a new winter dress and the suite of rooms occupied by the second assistant, Col. Whitfield, have been improved in the same way.

Mr. Arnold's Letter to the London Telegraph, A few steps led from Abraham Lincoln's cus- tomary council chamber toan inner official apart- ment, where at this hour President Harrison was sitting in debate with certain of his minis- ters. On receiving my card he did me the signal honor to receive me at once in the inner council chamber. Rising from a group of Secretaries of State, comprising Mr. Noble, Mr. Proctor and others, the President ap- proached with a cordial welcome to Washing- ton on his lips—a courteous, kindly, shrowd and business-stamped gentleman. of middle height or less, with light hair, beginning to “catch the Snow,” simple in style as were his surroundings. After some very friendly words our dialogue took some such pe as this: “You are pleased, I hope, with the states?” “Who could fail to be pleased, Mr. Presiden’ having eyes to see und mind to eppreciate’ Any reasonable Englishman must be proud and glad, I think, to be able to wander over so splendid a country and never feel himself other- wise than at home in this your transatlantic England.” “We know you have always been and area true friend to America,” “I consider myself balf an American, My children bear the American names of ‘Emer- son’ and ‘Channing’; my late wife was an American. I represent in avery humble wa; the bond of common blood and lan; e whi T hope will grow ever stronger be- tween the countries,” “We hope that, too, most sincerely; and my son, who has just returned from England, as- sures me that good will aud good wishes toward America are more and more felt in England.” “I venture to say, sir, that that isso. A con- stantly increasing number of Englishmen—and I trust and believe of Americans, also—ardently hope that no question will ever again arise be- cannot and will not be settled tyeen us whic! uar- | by reason and by right—the only proper arbiters between two such pare. “That ought to so, and will be so, if we make proper mutual allowances for each other, What has impressed you chiefly in your jour- neys here?” “The ‘magnificent distances,’ Mr, President.

It makes me think rather ruefully of Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes’ line, when he de- scribes the western giant as “Twirling the spotted globe to find us’ DISTRICT GOVERNMENT, WHY AN OATH 18 REQUIRED, “T notice,” said Commissioner Dougiass to a Sram reporter today, “that the Sentinel calls upon the Commissioners to show by what au- thority an applicant for liquor license is re- quired to an oath. The regulation re- quiring an oath was made by our predecessors and was in operation on the 2ist of May, the date of the organization of the present board, and bad been for the current year. The re- quirement for the oath grows out of the follow- ing language contained in the act of the “legi lative assembly of the District of Columbia,” August 23, 1871, and under which all = of ed ee ee issued: And be it it every nso engaged in any trade, &c., for which a license Columbus? shalt the one % ing the tum! atthe time for procuring same, make i , &e., and shail state powcr — a such facts as may be applicabie to licenses, as,’ &c.,6 mptecchonee | other things ‘bar rooms, pmo rooms an tippling houses,’ ” CHANGES IN THE ENGINEER'S OFFICE.

Robinson called on the Commis- sioners this morning and requested them to close the public schools the 16th day of October and allow the Odd Fellows in the employ of the District permission to be absent that day. The occasion is the forty- third anniversary of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. The Commissioners have issued an order allowing Odd Fellows in the employment of the District to be absent on the 16th, and re- ferred the school question to Supt. Powell, ———_—_ THE CATHOLIC CENTENNIAL. Noted Delegates on the Way From Europe. Much speculation has been indulged in by prelates, priests and laity of the United States as to who the distinguished prelate may be whose name was announced in a recent cable dispatch as having been named by Pope Leo XIII as his personal representative at the approaching Roman Catholic centennial cere- monies at Baltimore. The Most Rev. Francis Satolli is titular arch- bishop of Leponto, one of the most historic sees in the Roman Catholic church, since in its harbor was won a decisive victory on October 7, 1572, by Don John of Austria from the Moslems, Monsignor Satolli was born in the archdiocese of Perugia, Italy, in 1839, and isa personal friend of Pope Leo XIIL.who knew him when his holiness was yet archbishop of Perugia. Monsignor Satolli was once a dis- tinguished professor in the propaganda at Rome. He was appointed archbishop June 1, 1888. He will sail tor America October 20 and will be accompanied by his secretary, Abate Tacchi, an alumnus of the Academy of Noble Ecclesiastica, The other member of the delegation is the Very Rev. Dr. D. J._ O'Connell, rector of the American college at Rome, who precedes Arch- bishop Satolli to America, and is uow in New York, the guest of Archbishop Corrigan. He will not only represent the pope at the cere- monies attending the centennial, but will also attend the opening of the Catholic university here November 15. He did missionary duty for some years in North Carolinaand the Bahamas, and was one of the principal officers of the third plenary council of Baltimore, and was appointed. in company with Bishops Keane and oore of Florida, to bear the decrees of the council to Rome, where he was subsequently made rector of the American college, in itself a most important position, since its occupant is almost certain to be promoted to a bishopric, MGR. O'CONNELL ON THE CHURCH'S GROWTH, The New York World prints the following in- terview with Mgr. O'Connell, who is a young man, still in the thirties, slight in build, tall and graceful, with mild blue eyes, dark hair, and an oval face clean-shaven and of great mobility: “There is really no news connected with my visit,” he said. “I come to the city to visit my home and afterward to attend the ceremonies connected with the centennial celebration of tke American Catholic hierarchy to be heid in Baltimore November 10. There seems to be a misunderstanding as to the character of the coming celebration. It is not an assembly for the discussion of church doctrine. Assemblies of that sort are never held. The doctrinal laws of the Catholic church are fixed. What will take place is the celebration with pomp and ceremony of the irst establishment in America of an a see. November 10, 1789. Pope Pious VI created the hierarchy of the Catholic church in the United States, appointing Father John Carroli of Balti- more —_ He received his orders in the chapel of Lulworth Castle, England. He came to this country in 1790, and for twenty- five years remained the bishop of the see of Baltimore. He was a personal friend of Benja- min Franklin, At the time of the consecration of Bishop Carroil the population of the conti- nent of America was less than 4,000.000 souls and the Catholic population but 40,000. There were only thirty priestsin the country and not a single asylum or hospital, and the only Catholic college was at Georgetown. Now the Catholic population of Amerfea is 9,000,000, or one-sixth of the entire population; there are 18 archbishops, 71 bisho; 80'sees, 8,000 riests, 10.500 churches, 27 ecclesiastical col- leges, 650 colleges and academies, 3,100 parish schools and 520 hospitals. “Seventy-three bishops and archbisho; have accepted invitations tobe present at the celebration—every state and territory in the Union will be i eam cardinal of Quebee and other a, and Mexico will send two representa- ves. The exercises will begin with a _pontifi- cal bigh mass, at which Archbishop Williams of Boston will officiate, Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia filling the pulpit. A body of lay- men from all the churches of America will be present to attend the congress tobe held Nov- ember 11 and 12, at which various subjects of church interests will be considered and dis- cussed. The following day will be devoted to the dedication Washington. The congress will discuss church charities, educational matters, temperance, missionary work and like subjects.” THE CANADIAN CARDINAL, Of the distinguished visitors from other countrics the most prominent will be His Most Reverend Eminence Eleazer Alexander Tashe- reau, cardinal archbishop of Quebec. His nce will insure for the first time to the ‘atholies of this country the tacle of two cardinals together, The first ian cardi- nal is described as a most affable and dignified prelate and is, of course, metropolitan of Can- ada. He will be accompanied to Baltimore by — of several Canadian archbishops aud Two Mexican bishops —_ other invited guests is the vener- able inal Manning, archbishop of West- minster, but it is hardly probable that with his advanced age and stoadfast fidelity to official duty he could be induced to visit this country. cago, porter of Pullman car, head badly cut; Mrs. Giltson Keyes, Binghamton, Broome county, N.Y., wrist injured; Robert B. adian prelates are ex- | $f.’ YELLOW FEVER. Articles on the Epidemic Published ia Surgeon Gencral Hamiiton’s Report. The annnal report of Supervising Surgeon General Hamilton of the marine hospital ser- vice for the last fiscal year shows that during the year nearly fifty thousand seamen were treated at the different hospitals and relief stations throughout the United States, exceeding by more than a thousand the work of any previous year since the establishment of the service early a century ago. Much space is devoted to yellow fever. AR article on the “diagnosis of yellow fever” by of | Ast. Sarg. John Guiteras calls especial atten- tion to the diagnostic symptoms of the disease which appear early in ite course and which will no doubt be of great value in any future out- break of the fever in clearing up the doubt and Uncertainty which always attend the arrival ata definite couclusionin regard to the first few cases which forbode the onset of an wd demic. Doctor C. Faget, in an erticle on 4 “treatment of yellow fever,” furnishes more than thirty clinical charts of cases ulustrating the relation between pulse and temperature. Surgeon W. H. H. Hutton gives an in sketch of Camp Perry, the first camp of ““de- tention ind observation” known in history of epidemics, Surgeon Hutton also contributes an article on the “United States inspection ser vice,” which explains the measures taken to prevent tho spread of the fever to other parte ofthe country. Dr. John P. Wall is the au- thor of an able article on-““the yellow fever in Tampa, Plant City, Manatee and Palmetto,” in which he clearly shows the manner of intro- duction of fever into Tampa by smugglers in 1587, its hibernation in that city during the ensuing winter, and its modeof transportation to other points during the following spring and sammer. Drs. Ross, Martin and ‘Poss » who were in charge of the government re! meas- ures at Fernandina, Gainesville and Macclenny, also contribute interesting articles on the epi- demic of those towns. The report gives an teresting account of the outlines a tions which have recently been conducted at bacteriological laboratory of the service at New York, under the supervision of Asst, Surg. Kinyoun, Mention is also made of the establishment of a new laboratory on one of the isiands of Dry Tortugas especially intended for the investigation into the cause and prevention of yellow fever. Dr. G. M. Sternberg of the army contributes a volumin- | ous paper giving the investigation of the | methods adopted in Mexico and brazil for the prevention of yellow fever by inoculation. The result of the investigation is that the “method” is not protective and is therefore valueless, ALEXANDRIA, — for Tae Evexixe Stan. ASHINGTON CoRnProRATION.—Messra, Britton, Matthew G. Emery, ©.
