A Congressman Proposes to Have the Law Apply to Department Clerks. erm congressional association to a StaB re- porter yesterday evening. ‘Well, you get the pay, why don't you do the work?” retorted the reporter, and then, lest his sarcasm choke off an item of news, he queried: “What does your motto refer to?” The trans-Missouri statesman stuck his No. 10 hands into his breeches’ pockets, and after dancing his pantaloons up and down four or five times said: “We want to get more work for the millions of dollars which are annually expended in the departments in this city, and we think we can get it without causing any one serious hardship. This great government has written in its statute book a decree which states that eight-hours shall constitute a day's work for its employes. What good and sufficient reason can you give why department clerks, copyixt« and messengers should not spend as many hours a day in toil as the people in the | government printing office or the navy yard? Stop a minute now; you were going to suy thats a weak argument and you were going to ask me why I didn't advocate a reduc- Gon of the hours in those places. ‘There is no reason why they shoula be reduced. Any man or woman able to work at allcan stand eight hours of it when there is an interrupting lunch ordinner hour. Work in the de; ote is piling up mountains high and yet the $ government buildings are emptied of per- sons save the watchmen and charwomen while the winter sun is more than two hours above the western horizon. Frequently, quite often indeed, the heads of those departments work away until long after dark, but they work alone. ‘The eight-hour law affords them no protection. But their clerks—they are the people I am talk- ing about. They commence to work at 9 and finish at 4, having in the meantime enjoyed a haif-hour’s rest for lunch, For the most part they are quartered in comfortable offices, prop- erly heated, lighted and ventilated, and Iam glad to know that it is so. It should be so in every instance so far as possible should they object to performing eight hours’ labor for six days a week? Holidays are plentiful and advantage ia taken of every opportunity to make their num- ber greater, while each individual is annually entitled to thirty days’ leave with pay. Out in the west goverament employes are treated with Jess consideration—they earn every cent that is paid them. In the post offices they get to work 4t6 o'clock in the morning and they m4 with their job until 9 o'clock at night, although their recompense is invariably less than that of their highly favored brethren and sisters in this city. We members of the association—not 1 of us, perhaps—have talked the matter over with a good deai of seriousness and the pri- mary resuit will be seen im the introduction of « bill which will require clerks to be at their desks at 8a.m. and to remain there, with an hour's interval at noon, until 5 p.m. We re- gard that as a fair proposition, and, although st may interfere with some of the society ‘ducks,’ it won't break anybody's heart nor will it endanger the foundations of this repub- lic. Weare going to push that bill, and don't you forget to remember that I said so, FOR A FREE Mr. Chaimers Says Law is BALLOT. Federal Election Needed. Hon. J. R. Chalmers of Mississippi made an argument yesterday before the House commit- tee on the election of President and Vice Pres- ident on the subject of the necessity of a fed- eral election law for the state of Mississippi. He declared that he did not come before the committee to assail the white people of the south, but merely to ask protection for the white republicans of the south, The negroes were able to speak fully for themselves. He said that he would trust his life with a south- ern democrat, but he declared that when hey stole or robbed the ballot boxes at ith the fifteenth amendment to tue Constitution, It has been said that the “th emendment conid not be enforced in the southern states. This was a serious matter -d .ejuired attention, Congress had the sisted, to provide a federal election Ti was uot necessary to apply the remedy vhere it was not needed, but where it was needed there it should be applied. The super- vieors of cleetions would answer all purposes in places where the elections were conducted fairly, but where they re not conducted ‘arly some other means must be at hand for urpose. He thought a law might be cted providing that whonever a certain er of citizens asked for registration by d States officials such request should be granted. «-n. Chalmers favored the bill introduced by Representative Kelley of Kansas, with some wudiZcations, as a measure that would tend to the needs which he insisted existed in Mississippi of “a fair ballot.” ri law, THE REVENUE MARINE. A Report Advocating the Proposed ‘Transfer of the Service to the Navy. Representative Cabot Lodge has prepared a report to be submitted to the House in support of the bill authorized to be favorably reported by the House naval affairs committee transfer- ing the revenue marine service from the Treas- ury to the Navy department, The report ro- views the history of the service and shows that from the date.of its organization it has always been treated asa part of the naval service of the country, though attached to the Treasury department, Its organization is upon a naval basis and it has always been provided that the officers and men of the service as well as the vessels might, in case of necessity, be trans- ferred to the active naval list. The service has always taken an active partin war and fre- quently is made to do strictly military duty. Seeretariys Chandler, Windom and Tracy have recommended its transfer in their annual re- ports and have advanced good reasons there- for. Appended to the report are petitions from officers of the service in favor of the transfer and also from various commercia organizations, THERE MAY BE LITIGATION. The New Orleans Exposition May Have @ Sequel in Court. Apropos of world’s fair matters it may be in- teresting to note that there is promise of a big fight over some of the things which were left undone when the New Orleans exposition came to an undignified conclumon, To aid that ex- position Cougress appropriated $1,300,000, with the distinct understanding that if there was a surplus when the show was over the money should be turned into the United States treas- ury. By the terms of the appropriation an ac- counting was to be rendered by the responsible managers of the affair, and because of their lax business methods it is stated it looks as though there was going to be trouble. A firm “Don't you fool yourself into believing that Franklin Woodruff's failure means disaster to THE MARYLAND MARSHALSHIP. The Attorney General Reminded That a Democrat Fills the Position. Attorney General Miller was reminded yes- terday that a democrat is still United States marshal tor the district of Maryland. Men and indorsements combined to force this fact upon his attention, Twoof the Attorney General’ callers were Marylanders and republicans. On was the Hon. Daniel L. Brinton, who was de- feated by Rusk in the last congressional fight in the third district, The other was Mr. Wm. F, Stone of Baltimore, who expects to be the next marshal. The Attorney General was in- formed that Mr. Stone is president of the seventh ward republican association of Balti- more, the oldest republican organization in that city; that he is also a member of the re- publican city executive committee, of the re- publican state central committee, and that he represents the first legislative district of Bal- timore in the republican state executive com- mittee. Republican organizations have been liberal in their indorsements and these docu- ments, in company with letters from merchants, lawyers, clergymen and veterans of the G.A.R., were piled up on the Attorney General's table in sn teapostn heap. Nol knows just when the change will come, but the friends of Mr. Stone look exceedingly hopeful and they whistle “Some Day” with a good deal of en- thusiasm. PARNELL’S PECULIARITIES. The Great Irish Leader Very Super- stitious About Some Things. An anonymous writer in one of the London papers gives some curious and little known facts about Mr, Parnell. It appears that the Trish leader is eminently superstitious in trivial mutters. He refuses to remain in a room where three candles are burning, and he regards green asa peculiarly unlucky color, so much so that when the freedom of the city of Dub- lin was to be conferred upon him he requested that the lining of the casket should not be green but purple, the latter being his favorite color and considered by him as very auspicious. His chief relaxation is machine making, and “4f he reads at all he isa student of specialist journals of the class of Engineering.” The writer is an enthusiastic admirer of the un- crowned king and regards him as pre-emi- nently the right man for his post, his very limi- tations being in the writer's eyes only addi- tional proofs of his fitness for leadership. To his other oddities he adds the inability to dis- tinguish one tune from another. The Kaiser’s Brother to Re-establish the Empire in Brazil. A special cable telegram from Berlin to the Philadelphia Times says: Great excitement has arisen from the report that Prince Henry will start to re-establish the empire in Brazil. The emperor of Germany excuses him for breaking his contracts at home and even allows soldiers to accompany him. oe THE RUNAWAY MONTANIANS. They Are in St. Paul, Undecided Be- tween Canada and Montana, ‘Two fugitive democratig, senators from Mon- tana arrived in St. Paul Tuesday evening os- tensibly en route for Canada. They are Sena- tors McNamara and C, W. Hoffman. They reg- istered at the Ryan hotel upon arrival and they have remained since, faltering between the structions of their party leaders to go to Can- advand the advice of their friends to remain where they are or return to their state and their positions in the senate chamber. In- structions has been telegraphed them from the leaders of their party in Montana to start at once for Canada, and avoid possibility of arrest in this country. It is asserted that Gov. Toole wired them to use all possible haste to get out of the country, it being the only shadow of hope to secure the seating of the two democrats in the United States Senate, forlorn hope that by preventing any legislation in Montana there 1s a shadow of achance that Clark and McGinnis may seoure the piace they seek in the United States Senate. e absence of all of the eight democratic senators from the state is absolutely necessary to prevent the legisia- ture from transact any busin ting ess, The re- rt that they are to be arrested for perjury in wing violated their oath to support the con- stitution of the state and that of the United States, has reached them and they are consult- ing attorneys as to the proper course to pursue. ——— ee MINISTER HIRSH AND MOUSSA. The Turkish Fiend is Finally Made a Prisoner. Mr. Hirsh, the American minister here, has induced the grand vizier to keep Moussa Bey, the Turkish tyrant of Roumania, imprisoned in his own kowak. Moussa tried to escape, but his own eunuchs opposed his passage. He was re- conducted to his apartment, in which he was con- fined with one servant only andforbidden to visit his harem and to receive his own sultanas, Hirsh furnished such overwhelming evidence of ‘ocities thateven Kimil Pasha re- former protege. ————— NELSON AND ALCRYON, Together With Their Owners They Are Ruled Off All Tracks.

Total, 4,447, The following was passed: ‘Resolved by the congress of the National trottmg association, that C. H. Nelson, F. L. Noble and G. H.

Bill for Their Relief to be Introduced in the House of Lords, A bill will soon be introduced in the house of lords, fathered by Lord Rosebery, provid- ing government assistance for peers and peo- pie of rank of both sexes who may have fallen into poverty. There are upward of thirty British and Irish noblemen now living on charity. Several are hopelessly bankrupt, while a few are earning their living. The re- cent death of the Viscountess Vingsland has called public attention to this fact, This es- timable woman, who has been in receipt of £100 a year from the civil list, was discovered ten years ago making shirts for living at 6 pence a piece, Lord Lisle, an Irish nobleman, is living in the depths of poverty in a small house st Baye- water. He is the head of an ancient family. The father of the duke of Buckingham died at sixty-one years of age in extreme BB tos More than twenty baronets are leading pre- carious lives, One is » pawnbroker and another is a photographic artist. This latter, Sir Atwell Lake, is descended from one of the most ancient of England's families and has been an officer in the British army and a theatrical manager in the provinces, Another baronet is @ tout for a political club, receiving a com- mission of three shillings and six ce for each member obtained by him. Five baronets have been convicted of swindling during the last ten years. i It is believed that the bill in parliament will endeavor to provide an asylum for these reduced aristocrats, without any livery or badge of Lat sae) to be worn by the inmates, They may also receive small incomes from a supple- mentary civil list. Care will be taken that no one shall be eligible who has debts or has been deprived of title by conviction for swindling. It is argued that @ peer, peeress or baronet descending to the acts that dire poverty forces on them brings their order into contempt and lessens the iniuenoe of the upper house! POSSIBLE SOUTHERN IRON STRIKE Workmen Make Demands That May Close a Dozen Blast Furnaces. Dispatches to the Chattanooga Tradesman from the Alabama mining region indicate that @ general strike is threatened throughout the state, involving thousands of coal miners and causing fifteen or twenty blast furnaces to close down, The Tradesman representatives have closely investigated the situation and state that the strike inaugurated a few days ago, when 500 miners of the Debardeleben company quit work, threatens to be the com- mencement of a general strike. The Debar- deleben miners quit work because the company declined to accede to their demands: First, that they be furnished posts, ties and rails; second, that no boy under seventeen years of age be permitted to work in the mines; third, that the miners committee be rmitted to regulate the working hours in each mine. The miners have referred the matter to the state committee of the Knights of Labor and await their decision. If they are sustained it is thought the miners at Cahaba, Pratt mines, Coalburg and other points will join in the strike. The company seems determined to re- sist their deman —e——— THE TOP CAME OFF, Fearful Volcanic Eruption in the Bingo District in Japan. The steamer Gaelic arrived in San Francisco from Hong Kong and Yokohama yesterday. Japanese advices give the following details of one of the most terrible volcanic eruptions in the recent history of Japan: Mount Zoo, near the town of Fukuyama, in the Bingo district, commenced to rumble at 8 o’clock on the even- of January 16. This continued two hours, fol- lowed by a short cessation, during which period the inhabitants of the neighboring vil- lages rushed away from their homes in great confusion, Soon the top of the mountain was lifted off. There was a din equal toa dynamite explo- sion and sund and stones were belched forth, falling in the neighborhood of Fukuyama, where smoke and fire were also blown by the wind. At the entrance of the town the ground was covered with sand and earth to a depth of over a foot. Stones and earth also fell at Mid- sunomimura, a village six miles away. No pre- vious cruption at Mount Zoo is recorded. The total lovs entailed by the eruption is estimated at nearly $3,500,000. ——-e0—____ Browning’s Voice in a Phonograph. From the Manchester Courier. ‘The last time Mr. Lebman met Browning was in the summer of the year that has just gone. It was at dinner at the painter's house, among the guests being Col. Gouraud, who brought his phonograph. It was Browning’s first sight of the thing and he was like a child with a new plaything. When his turn came to speak he declaimed into the instrament his own “Ride from Ghent to Aix.” Half way through memory failed him for a moment at which he ejaculated, ‘Good gracious! I've forgotten the rest!” and gest was the amusement when the phonograph repeated the half poem, and then, after a brief pause, the “Good gracious! forgotten the rest.” The voice is now with os Gouraud, a precious, but an eerie posses- ion, see. The Richest Woman in Wales. The richest woman in Wales and one of the richest in the world is Miss Talbot, the eldest daughter of the late father of the house of commons, She possesses wealth which it would be difficult to calculate, She has £3,000,000 in railway stocks, Miss Talbot is a fragile-looking, sweet-faced woman, who is never weery of well doing. Her two sisters, one of whom is an invalid, have also inherited large fortunes, the married one, Mrs. Fletcher, having a million and the invalid eight hundred thousand. Mrs, Fletcher's son, a lad of nine, is alread, of immense estates, and his aunt, Miss Talbot, may, if she pleases, leave him hers, that of Magram, which is full of wonderful mineral wealth, It is, how- ever, unentailed. i No More Official French. A special to the New York Times from Win- nipeg, Man., says the Manitoba legislature yes- terday decided to abolish the official use of the French language in the country by a vote of 26 to10, The French-speaking people are very indignant over this action and serious trouble is feared, particularly if Premier Greenway carries out his proposition to abolish the Roman Catholic separate schools. Catholics are loud in their threats against the government, st as esate pk icing Rumored Capture of Clayton’s Assassin.
