It has never been recommended as a position where a man suffering from nervous prostration would be | likely to secure needed rest and quiet. On the contrary it is asserted that a larger pro- portion of the citizens of the country are brought into direct relations with Uncle Sam through the Post Office department than through any other branch of the government. More thun one-half of the officials outside of | the army and navy who are appointed by the | President are connected with this department. | It ought not, therefore, to be a matter of sur- | prise that the Postmaster General is written to and talked to by perhaps more people than cabinet officer. This is especially p at the be ng of an administration. | AT Mi. WANAMAKER'S DOOR. For the past eight months the corridor near the door of the Postmaster General and his ante room have been thronged daily with ople anxious to see Mr. Wanamaker. He has en able to do but little except to shake hands and talk. If he was called upon to epitomize in a sentence the functions of a Postmaster General Mr. Wanamaker would probably say: ‘The duties are largely to shake hands and be talked a He takes very little part in the conversation himself. With a Foom fuil of visitors and more outside to take their places, he does not wit down and chat about the weather or the condition of busi- ness. He adopts the peripatetic method and ks about the room from one visitor to another. He listens to what each one has to say. His manner is always courteous. He Pays strict attention, but some how he conveys the impression that he has not time to listen | to lengthy statements, His replies are brief and to the point. and while he is saying good-bye to one visitor he is reaching out to grasp the hand of another. His thorough mastery of himself and his clear discernment of the proper disposition | of each request enables him to do a great deal inashort time. He seems to be Gp & through a day of fatiguing toil and at the same time preserve an equitable temper and a calmuess of manner that is appreciated by those who have business with him. He can be stern, but he is never irritable. He knows how | to repulse senseless pertinacity and impudence, but he does not assume the airs of superiority. MR. WANAMAKER’S BUSINESS HABITS. He isagreat worker. He has the method and the orderly modes of procedure which are | the qualities of a successful business man.

Latest News from the Scene of Work on the New Isthmuan Route. Mrs, E. Guerrera, daughter of the consul for Nicaragua at Philadelphia, Henry C. Potter, | has just returned from a trip to Central America, In the Philadelphia Press she gives an account of work on the Nicaraguan canal. She went over the route of the canal on which the surveys have just been complete ‘The work of surveying,” said Mrs. Guerrera, “has of course been thoroughly done and the strict- est economy has been observed by the chief engineers in the prosecution of the work. While only one or two of the young surveyors have died, nearly all of them have been ili. It was the intention tohave taken pitch pine houses from New Orleans to be usedas quarters for the engincers, but uufortunately they never arrived and the poor young fellows were compelled to sleep in tents in the swamps, ex- posed to fever and malaria, They also com- plained that the gum blankets purchased for their use were not as good as they should have been and the mattresses on their iron tent bed- steads were not more than .an inch anda half | thick.

NO YELLOW FEVER. “Now, there is one thing I'd like you to con- tradict,” suddenly exclaimed Mra, Guerrera, as | she handed the reporter for inspection an old Toltee piece of pottery, said to be 1,100 years old, and excavated from the recently discov- ered caves, but which now rests on the old- fashioned sideboard once used by Joseph Bon- eparte. “I'd like you to deny the statement that there is yellow fever in Greytown, Nica- Tagua, ‘There is not a case of yellow fever in Nicaragua, and the case which raised such a fuss when the Hondo came into New York was picked up at Livingstone, Honduras.

His name is Meesner and he is from California. The peo- ple of Nicaragua are generally well educated, very many of them having received their edu. cation in Europe and this country.

Sr. Lovurs, Mo., October 30. The traveling members of the international American congress have gone to Kansas City and St. Louis is its normal self once more. The delegates were well treated here, but there was too much “rush” about the proceedings for the day to have been in all respects a thor- | oughly enjoyable one. It opened up with a| dross, display of agility by the St. Louis fire depart- ment and the consequent soaking of several that the firemen were going to respect their rights as to the occupancy of the public streets, | Every city we have been in has developed a | ings held in desire to show off its men and means for the extinguishing of fire, but in the majority of instances the exhibit has been shut off on the ground that all fire departments were alike, and that no good could come of the forty or fifty displays which the local committees had so unanimously placed on the programs in each town. IN A MANUAL TRAINING SCHOOL. There were three very interesting places vis- ited yesterday, but the time allotted for their imspection was too brief to allow of anything more than the most superficial examination. The first of these was the manual training school of Washington university, and it was peculiarly interesting because it has a well- founded claim to being the first manual train- ing school in the country. The work done therein is of a most excellent quality and on the lines of mathematics, science, language aud lit- erature, drawing and tool theory and practice. Trades are not taught nor are articles made to sell. A maximum of mechanical principles is instilled into the boys and a minimum of prac- tical work is done because it 1s not assumed that the students are to become mechanics, or engineers, or manufacturers: they may’ become such or they may not, Each must take the full course of study without regard to whims and fancies, ‘Ihe school is to develop all their powers and fit them to choose their occupa- tions wisely. Inquiry among the teachers de- veloped the fact that nearly all the students in the school are the sons of wealthy parents, The delegates did not know that the south drew heavil upon St. Louis for the boots and shoes which its people wear and they were astonished at the extent of the industry, One company employs about 800 hands and turns out an immense quantity of work, RELUCTANT TO LEAVE. The most thoroughly pleasant feature of the | day’s program was the visit to that well-known | educational aggregation of feminine attractive- ness, the Mary institute. Here were assem- bled a large number of the young ladies who will in a little while be the belles of St. Louis; who will in the future be admired much, but never more enthusiastically than they were yesterday afternoon. They sang cerant selec- tions very sweetly and fairly enchanted the foreigners—to say nothing of the susceptible natives who accompanied them—by their grace- fulness in calisthenic exercises, The visitors overstayed their time considerably and nearly drove the local committeemen frantic by their refusal to allow themselves to be torn away from the presence of such a gathering of bud- ding womanhood. Senor Zelaya covered him- self with glory of amore appreciative nature than anything Honduras can ever give him by making a speech to the girls, It would be use- less to attempt to depict the applause those girls showered upon him when he got through. The gigantic establishment of the Anheuser- Busch brewing association was one of the sights which the local committee gave as much time to as possible and the delegates were somewhat deferential in the presence of ench an immense concern, ‘Twenty-two hundred employes earn their daily bread by manutac- turing beer. By the way, that English syndi- cate which has been going up and down in the land for some time past seeking breweries to devour has succeeded tolerably well in St. Louis. The associated brewers—which means every firm in the city with the exception of Busch’s and two others—have sold out and in return for their properties have received, or will soon receive, the neat little sum of $12,000,000. Delegate M. M. Estee of California left a good deal of his car load of Pacific coast fruit and wines in this city and the recipients of his generosity have hada good deal to say in praise of the kind of edible matter and drink- able liquid which California produces, Mr. Estee intended to donate his samples to the members of the excursion party, but he soon discovered that a more than fair proportion of it would spoil if the consumption was limited tosuch a small community, so he therefore gave away lavishly of car load and has spoiled a good many people's tastes for any other kind of fruit than that which comes from the coast, WHY THE PUBLIC 18 EXCLUDED, During the past few days the public hasbeen not a little disappointed because it was not mitted to the traina: every place where it stopped and the curious want to know why tho folks up in New England were permitted to ram- ble through the cars whenever the train was not occupied by the delegates. Some of thé pas- sengers on the “special” noticed the absence | of the crowd, but only a small fraction of the whole party know why the “dear “public” has been excluded. he fact is that lots of little things which the excursionists lett lying around onthe seats were not always there when the. owners returned, and this invariably made the aforesaid owners excited and oftentimes pro- fane. Somebody suggested that if strangers were kept outside of the cars there would be fewer things missing, and a brief experience has shown this to be true. It is presumed that the guilty ones simply wanted souvenirs, THE VENEZUELAN LIBERATOR, With a due sense of the eternal fitness of things, Mr. Wm. E. Curtis has so arranged matters that the speech which will be deliverea at the tomb of Abraham Lincoln at Springfield tomorrow shall be by Senor Bolet Parassa, who is the son-in-law of Gregorie Monagas, the Lincoin of South America and the idol of the people of Venezuela. In 1857 Gregorie Monagas issued a proclamation which emancipated every slave in Venezuela, Years afterward his enemies secured tempcrary control of the re- public and they imprisoned him in a dungeon at Maracaibo, but today his memory is heid in the highest esteem. It was very proper that the son-in-law of this liberator should be called upon to say something of the great Lincoln. CAPT. BOURKE’S GRIEVANCE. Dr. Yarrow has a patient at last, One of the newspapers, in mentioning Capt. Bourke, said he was an officer in the navy, and for several minutes after the paragraph was incautiously shown the veteran calvaryman it seemed almost certain that he would succumb to the shock. Liberal applications of proper stimulants brought him back to consciousness and to a re- ahzation of the fact that some reporter's edu- cation had been shamefully neglected so far as the names and lives of great Americans were concerned. When the captain read the para- graph a second time he stated very empliatic- ally that the job had been put up by his old naval smy—Lieut. MeCrea—who had, he was contident, paid for its insertion at so much per line. G.HLH. —_ Gen. Grant’s Resting Place. In an interview in Philadelphia G. W. Childs says Gen, Graut’s body will doubtless be re- moved to West Point or Arlington. ‘Several years before his death,” said Mr. Childs, “Gen. Grant said that his military superior, Winfield Scott, was burled at West Point, and he would like to lie there. He also expresed a de- sire that his wife might be buried at bis side.” “At the time of Gen, Grant's death New York came quickly forward with its offer to provide @ resting place; now, however, influential Grand Army wen have asked that ‘the body be removed to Arlinyton, aud special arrange- ments have been made to allow of Mrs. Grant | being buried at the same place. “United States army olticers seem to prefer West Point, Within a few weeks I expect to | see Mrs. Grant, and she will, of course, be the first to act.” ————-+e+—______ Richmond’s Disfranchised Negro Voters. A petition for a mandamus to compel the registrars of Heurico county, Va, to restore to the registration books the names of about 500 negro voters which they have stricken from the books was heard yesterday before Judge Minor of the county court.

The committeo presented to the President the following ad- THE ADDRESS, The address was as follows: , hundred spectators who foolishly imagined | To the Hon. Benj. Harrison, President of the United States: Sir: At the American National Baptist meet- Indianapolis September 15 to 17 the following resolutions, having been read and referred to the committee on resolutions, were reported back to the house and after amend- ment adopted: “And whereas our political leaders are few. and even those we have cannot reach the people, therefore it becomes our duty to out upon all questions that affect our people, socially and economically as well as religiously; and whereas God has sivays, in all ages, instructed and ruled the pec le through his own chosen and called men; therefore, be it resolved that this convention believes that the truest interests of our people are in their accepting the Horace Greeley doctrine of “Young men, go west,” where they may obtain a recognition and grow up with the country; resolved that the ir and oppressed people have always migrated westward, where they could get lands in new countries, and thus grow up with them and become the great men of those new communi- ties; resolved that we ask the President of the United States tou recommend to the United States Congress an appropriation of $50,000,000 to aid the colored people to leave the south.” Mr. Paestpent: We, the undersigned, were sppointed @ committee to lay these resolutions before you. Therefore, your petitioners beg leave to recite the wrongs their brethren un- dergo as a just cause, in the opinion of honor- able, industrious and fair-minded men, why we appear before you. We feel that a righteous statement of our case should be made to our great executive head and to the law-making ie of this vast republic. Our wrongs late from 1620, A.D., to 1889, A.D. From the time we landed few in number until now we are great in number, but still weak in the means of self protection. We pass over the long siege of American slavery, because it is familiar to the citizens of the world. We pass over our record in the war, as it has be- come a matter of fame how as soldiers and slaves we attracted the admiration of the world. And we come to our condition since the war and beg leave to tell the sufferings of our people in the south. Though outraged and slain in many quarters we have borne the slightest insults and tho most bloody murder with equal fortitude. We have appealed to our President and to the Con- gress of the United Siates before and we can- not see that we are protected from any source. Our friends seem powerless and high crime is still rampant. Occasionally there is an inves- tigation or along debate, but our lives and property are still insecure and outrageous laws are still being made against us. We do not appeal to you nor to Congress as partisana, yet, as the long, life-time allies of the sentiment your party expresses and by which you hold power ate , we do hereby request that our wrongs be righted. We make the fol- lowing indictment against many sections of the lower south. Letit be remembered that we do not speak of every section of the south, for many sections are quiet and peaceable: THE INDICTMENT, We charge: 1. That we are murdered with- out cause. 2. That we are not given justice before thelaw. 3, That weare driven from our homes and our property destroyed by fire. 4, ‘That we are denied the right to vote, or, if al- lowed to vote, our vote is destroyed by fraud, 5, That when elected we are ejected from office by revolutionary proceedings. 6. That we are kept in constant dread by the parade of arms and denunciatory threats through every campaign, 7, That our churches are burned and our meetings are disbanded. 8. That tho opposing press can say whgt it pleases while our press is muzzled. 9, That our progress is checked in every way, living under such un- happy and miserable circumstances, Now, since these things are so, we have come to ask you to lay before Congress these resolu- tions and this memorial, praying that $50,000,000, more or less, be srpropriated to aid those who are thus situated to leave the south and settle on western lands. It is no fault of ours that we are outraged and murdered, We would gladly have our people stay in the land where they wete born, for we all love the south, Indeed, we love its people, and would gladly live in peace with them. We are not anarchists, communists nor social- ists.but true Americans thatlove our country. If the pilgrim fathers could come across the waters for peace and safety, why should we not go west among a friendly people? It is useless to hope for a change of sentiment in these sec- tions of the south, ‘Hope deferred maketh the heart sick,” Say a generation has peers since the war and this state of affairs still continues. If it be argued that the United States can do nothing for us it would seem that we are not citizens of the United States, but citizens of the etates in which we live. If this be so it is apparent that we have no redress within the state, and the ouly remedy then would be to leave unfriendly states and goto friendly ones. The colored people are poor, made so, and are kept so. Some may dis- pute the propriety of this appeal, but the best vindication of our effort herein will be to give these people a chance to leave these sections. The exodus of the Israclites from Egypt will be asmall sized excursion compared to the move there will be in the south. The commit- tee, representing 1.362.273 communicants who are your petiuioners, do not bear any malice nor ill will to the people of the south, nor do our constituents. We are sure the uewspapers will daily corroborate our indictment in some | form or other. Trusting we may have your good | will in this matter and no desire to be | Unfair to the quiet and peaceful sections of the south, but only to speak of sections known tw cover the descriptions mentioned, we are, respectfully, yours, Wm. J. Simmons, C. H. Parrish, W. B. Johnson, J. A. Taylor. H.W. Bowey. soe. “THAT’S THE MAN.” Burke is the “Frank Williams” who Rented the Carlson Cottage. Jonas Carlson corroborated his daughter-in- law in her testimony in the Cronin trial yester- day afternoon and, narrating the story of the stranger, supposed to be Burke, who rented the Carlson cottage, said was my house, as he wanted to rent it, him yes, He said let me see the house, and I took the keys and went to the house with him, around and said there were six rooms. ‘How ! much do you ask for it?’ Isaid, ‘12.4 month,’ He said, ‘Can you take $11? ‘No, I cannot,’ I | said, ‘I will give you the mouey now,’ he said. | Then I got the money, aud my bey gave him"s receipt when we went back to the other house.” | Carlson went on to say that the stranger, who gave the name of Frank Willams, said that he | had three brothers, and his sister was to come on trom Baltimore to keep house for them.

He tered the words when the witness, walking straight ay to the defendant, Martin Burke, shook his hut at him, and exclaimed, ‘“Yhat's | the man,” Despite his utmost efforts to appear uncon- cerned, it was evident that Burke fully realized the damaging nature of oldman Carlson's testi- mony. Mr. Mills was not slow to clinch his ad- vantage. ‘Is that the man,” he asked, indi- | cating Martin Burke, “at your place you called Frank Williams?” and the witness unhesitatingly answered: ‘Yes, sir, John Garrity, a teamster, testified that about two weeks ago Coughlin told him he wanted to see “Major” Sampson; he wanted to get him to “slug” aman.

Politics and Art in the Metropolis, EX-PRESIDENT CLEVELAND AND GOV, BILL—TRE FORMER NOT TAKING ACTIVE PART IN POLITICS —THE BARYE ART EXHIBITION—THE NEW YORK WORLD'S FAIR PROJECT DRAGGING. Correspondence of Tu Evexryo Stan. New York, November 1. It is difficult to realize that we stand on.the brink of another election. The attendant cir- cumstances which mark the present contest, if it deserves that name, are as opposite as possi- ble from the circumstances of last November. The excitement of that time is still fresh in memory, Bands were playing, the spellbinders were spouting, the walls were covered with posters, thestreets were ablaze with torchlight processions and the whole country was in one vast hubbub. But now there are scarcely any indications of a contest. Next Tuesday, how- ever, an election will take place affecting the fortunes of the two great parties both in the state and in the city, and the consequences of the balloting may be important. If the repub- licans, for instance, should manage to elect their state ticket it would prove a serious, if nota fatal, set-back to Gov. Hill's ambitions. And even if marked republican gains in the legislature are made it will impair his prestige considerably. The governor has realized how important success is to him, and in the lai guage of political fervor he has taken off his coat and rolled up his sleeves, so far as such enthusiasm is compatible with the ordinary habits df a gentleman at the Hoffman house who doesn’t wish to be arrested as either insane or drunk and disorderly. : HILL AND CLEVELAND, But, dropping metaphor, the governor has spent the week here in close consultation with the local leaders and has made himeelf the cen- tral figure of the campaign. In marked con- trast with the governor's activity has been the masterly inactivity of Cleveland. If these two gentlemen both have their eye fixed on "92 they are chasing their rainbows in very different ways. Mr. Cleveland is keeping out of active politics entirely. He has lapsed into the pros- perous lawyer and “prominent citizen.” His name appesrs in a dignified connection wi political movements and with important social functions. but he carefully avoids the jealousies of active rivalries in the elbowing crush. Opin- ions differ as to the wisdom of this policy, but at any rate it is more dignified and respectable than Hill’s open scramble for advancement, THE BARYE EXHIBITION, which opens now in a few days—the time isnot definitely set—will be the great art feature of the winter here. Washington will appear to advantage in the collection, as all the examples of Barye’s work in the possession of the Corco- ran Art Gallery will be loaned to the exhibi- tion, Mr, Walters’ best examples will also be included. Altogether there will be be- tween six and seven hundred examples of the great artist’s work, comprising all branches of art from anelaborate bronze group toa pen-and- ink sketch. But the exhibition comprehends a side feature which promises to be of quite as much Popular interest as the Barye collections. This is the gallery of paintings by his con- temporaries and associates, most of whom are grouped in what is known as the Barbizon school, Mr. Walters loans about thirty of his best — canvases. Then there will be the famous Angelus of Millet, which is now the property of the American Art Association, and there will be four Millets from the collection of Mr. Quincy A. Shaw of Boston, who 1s considered to have the finest gailery of Millets in the world. Other splendid canvases giving examples of the finest work of Millet, Rousseau, Corot, Diaz, Dupré, Troyon and in short all the great French landscapists who cul- tivated their art in the forest landscapes of Fontainebleau are to be loaned from the pri- yate galleries of Cornelius Vanderbilt, William Rockefeller, George I. Seney, Potter Palmer, and other famous connoisseurs. Unquestion- ably the collection will be the best ever made of modern French landscape paintings, much su- perior tothe one hundred master pieces ex- ibited at the Paris exposition and finer than any European collection could be, owing to the fact that America possesses the cream of this phase of French art, THE WORLD'S FAIR, I violate no confidence in saying that the world’s fair drags, The newspapers try to put a bright face on the matter, but their buoyant spirits are artificial and do not reflect popular feeling. About one-third of the required guar- antee fund has been raised after a week's act- ive campaigning, but the totals are falling off and, candidly, it looks very squally. One great trouble is the continued uncertainty about the site. The defenders of the park have made such a stiff fight that the plan to utilize any of its territory is practically abandoned, On the other hand the committee find themselves ham- pered in the acquisition of private lands by greed and crankiness, so that they are getting pinched for room. Nor have they matured any scheme of buildings owing to this vagueness with regard to the location. Naturally in this muddle cautious capitalists are not anxious to subscribe fortunes, Like Demosthenes they exclaim, “But the how? Tell us that!” and the committee in reply can_rise to no more ele- vated strain than the Pinafore sentiment, “Never mind the why and wherefore!” THE RAILROAD CONSOLIDATION. A business topic of great interest during the week has concerned the gigantic consolidation of western systems and the probable conse- quences, The almost universal feeling in Wall street is that the railroads of the country are inevitably drifting into three or four great systems or federations. which again will have an amicable understanding and division of the spoils among themselves, And it is further held that this tendency toward consolidation | and monopoly has been hastened by, if not due to, the interstate commerce bill, It would be a singular turn about if Senator Reagan's bill, the whole intent of which was to forbid and prevent railroad combination, should have just the contrary effect aud be the means of consoli- dating all the warring systems into one vast federation.

The weather-crop bulletin of the signal office says: October has been cooler than usual in ail agricuitural districts east of the Rocky moun- tains, except in Dakota. There was a slight excess in temperature in the Rocky mountain | dastricts, and thence westward to the Pacific coast, During the mont thcre has been less rain than usual in the central valleys and generally throughout the southern states aud New Eng- land, More than the usual amount of rain oc- curied in California and Oregon, in the middle | Atlantic states and in the central Rock moun- tain plateau region, The drought condition which existed in the central valleys bas been succeeded by timely rains, which have doubt- less greatiy improved the winter wheat crop. The drought continued during the month in the southern portion of the Gulf states, extending from Florida westward over southern Texas, over which region only light showers were re- ported, and the deficiency of rainfall for month ee trom one to five inches, but this moruing (November 1) generous rains were re- ported from Texas, not uisiana and southern Alabama, and the rains are heavy in the central Mississippi and lower Missouri valleys, with heavy snows in western Kansas, F g _——>—___ David Harfeld, the weal! wn broker of Richmond, Va., was Proce Pres bigamy yes- terday afternoon. $1,800. | § A HINGTON, D.C., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 2. 1889—-TWELVE PAGES.

At the District buildings it is expected that a change will soon be made in the ottice of iuten- dant of the Washington axvium. It is stated that the place has already been offered to two men, One of these declined the position and was appointed shortly to another place, not quite so lucrative, while the other not as yet been heard from, THE ANNUAL ASSESSMENTS, The assessor has prepared the duplicate of assessments for the tax levy of the pa beginning June 30, 1589, ‘Which shows ut $40,000 increase in taxes over the amount esti: mated by him as a basis for the appropriations printed some time agoin Tne Stan. The total tax levy is €2.209,321.34. The increase is mainly due to buildings omitted and other clerical errors of the sub-assessors, A PETITION OF TRE HACKMEN, The Commissioners have received a petition from the licensed hack drivers who for the past ten years have occupied the hack stand on 6th street in front of the Baltimore and Poto- mac railroad depot stating that on the 3st ultimo Joseph Acton, an officer of the Metro- politan police force, notitied them that their right to occupy said street no longer existed and that he proposed to drive them all away. ‘This action on the part of the officer, they state, is wholly without cause or provocation and was done to gratify his own passion and hatred for them. They ask that Odicer Acton be pre- vented from putting his threats into execution and that they be allowed to conduct their busi- ness as heretofore. The Commissioners will look iato the matter, BUILDING PERMITS have been issued as follows: Paul Jones for the Inter Ocean Building company, one brick of- fice building, 512 9th street northwest, at a cost of $75,000.

The Vienna Fremdenblatt, court organ, says: “The coming interview between Count Kal- noky and Prince Bismarck will be directed toward realizing the pacific hopes expressed in the speech of the emperor of Germany read at the opening session of the reichstag.” The Fremilenblett also says that the czar during his recent visit to Berlin had an ex- cellent opportunity to divest himself of his distrust regarding the peace league and he was brought to a more just appreciation of the policy of the allies.
