There can be no made as to the time when the new city post office building will be begun, even though the condemnation com- missioners carry out their promise of having a title to the land ready to be trans ferred to the government by the mid- dle of April. The trouble will lay in the office of the supervising architect of the treas- ury,which has to preparethe plans and which is #0 badly blocked with work that there fs no light ahead. The great difficulty is in the lack of space for draughtsmen, and this may be relieved in time by the completion of the new building that is being erected im the south court of the treasury building for the accom- the archi- Windrim wanted ion Congress to petitive plans for this building, along with some others, from private architects, but the scheme was killed in the Senate committee.

Prk ee THE ANTI-CIGARETTE LAW. ‘The First Prosecutions Under It Brought To- day by Policeman Lynch. Since the passage of the anti-cigarette law many of the boys have had to content them- selves with what they call “grounders” or “chokers” and there is now a conspicuous ab- sence of remnants of cigarettes in the gutters and about the entrances of public places. Notwithstanding the enactment of the law the boys are still puffing smoke, but the police have been instructed to look out for offenders, which includes persons who treat as well as those who sell, and in that respect the law is an anti-treating one. The first prosecutions under the law were begun today when Police- man Lynch, who has been on duty in the eighth’ precinct, swore out warrants for Messrs. Denham and White and Eliza Soper. ‘The former conduct a grocery store at 8th and § streets and the latter keeps s confec- ‘The boye to whom iis tiloges the cigarettes were sold are Jas.

Dr. Hammond's Revival An interesting episode in the revival meet- ings which are being conducted by Evangelist Hammond at the Tabernacle Church, on 9th street southwest, occurred last evening. A gray haired man told the story of his conver- sion. He said that fifteen years ago he at- tended the meetings condueted by Dr. Ham- mond in this city. He was at ‘time drunkard. He bad been » tor of a dance house and a gambling den, but had lost his business and his money in consequence of his drinking habits. He was introduced to the audience by Dr. Hammond as Mr. J. Reynolds and his description of what. his life had been Previous to his conversion and what it had n since drew tears from the eyes of his listeners. Addresses were made by Dr. Pres- brey, Mr. F. H.

The reciprocity treaty between the United States and Brazil has been promulgated in that country. It will go into effect April 1, and as dent of Brazil the ports of that republic are de clared free and open to the products of the United States included in the arrangement made between Mr. Mendonca and Mr. Blaine, and that certain other merchandise from the United States would be admitted at a 25 per cent reduction from the regular established rates of duty. This decree was sccompauied by a circular from the secretary of the treasury of Brazil in which he gives his instructions to the collector of customs of that country in re- gard to carrying out the new arrangement. The newspapers just received from Brazil in- dicate considerable opposition to the treaty, which is, howaver, attributed to the British and German interests, which are naturally op- posed to any concessions in favor of citizens of the United States, their commercial rivals. The announcement made from these sources that the treaty is invalid is, of course, entirely with- out foundation. ee DEATH OF MINISTER SWIFT. Heart Disease the Cause—Brief Sketch of = His Career. A cable message was received last night at the State Department dated at Tokio, Japan, announcing that Hon. John F. Swift of Cali- fornia, minister from the United States to Ja- pan, died of heart disease at 7 o'clock last night. Mr. Swift was born in Missouri in 1839. He settled in California when twenty years of ago, and, after acquiring a competence in business pursuits, studied law and acquired a high standing at the bar. In early life he was a democrat, but since the war he has been an active and influential republican. He was twice a member of the state legislature, was once defeated fora seat in Congress, and in April, 1880, President Hayes appointed him a member of the commission which negottated the supplemental treaties with Chins. On the Chinese question he held the views generally prevalent on the Pacific coast. ran for governor of California on the republican ticket in 1886, but was defeated by Bartlett, demo- crat, by a majority of less than a thousand. He was a delegate-at-large to the recent na- tional republican convention, and was one of President Harrison’s first appointments, hav- ing been selected as the minister to Japan on March 12, 1889, ‘The Citrus Fair at Los Angeles. The California citrus fair was formally opened in Los Angeles last night. After three weeks of arduous work the many designs were com- pleted in time for the opening. The pavilion where the fair is held is handsomely decorated and lighted by electricity. Fourteen special designs are worked out in o: and over 1,000,000 oranges were used in making the de- signs and exhibits. Eight counties of southern California are represented at the fair and there are 350 exbibits divided into twenty-seven classes. The fair exceeds the one given last year in magnitude and excellence of display. Labor Troubles in Milwaukee. A special dispatch from Milwaukee, Wis., says: From present indications the lockout of the plasterers seems to be only a forerunner of what may be expected ut the opening of the building season this year. All the. building trades in the city are members of the Building League. In this organization are included the stone cutters, masons and bricklayers, carpent- ers, plasterers, hod carriers, plumbers. paint- ers, roofers and cabinet makers, and the total membership of these organizations is full 5,000 men. These unions will stand by eac! other. The carpenters are backed by the treas- ury of the International Brotherhood, and the remaining unions are financially able to stand & protracted siege if necessary. ssintioweesrilied ‘The Lingo Murder Trial. ‘The case for the commonwealth in the trial of the negro Lingoat Camden, N. J., for the murder of Mrs. Miller was completed yesterday. ‘The witnesses identified variousarticles that had been turned over to Dr. Formad for micro- scopical examination, including the sleeve of a shirt found near the scene of the murder and the shirt from which it had begp torn, found Lingo’s house, and then Dr. Férmad’ gave his expert testimony. He testified that Mra. Miller had been feloniously assaulted; that he had found blood in the joints of Lingo's razor, which had been carefully cleaned with ashes, and blood on the clothing Lingo was said to have worn on the day of the murder, as well as blood in the serapings of his finger nails. His testimony was not shaken by cross-examination. ero 3 Stockholders Pat on an Equality. A special dispatch from Indianapolis says: A bill which provides that no stockholder in a corporation shall have more than one vote, no matter how many shares he may have, has be- come a law. It is likely to cause a vast amount of trouble to corporations and stock companies, because it places in the powor of a few men having small interests the control of companies owned almost wholly by others. It ie wholly inexplicable that the bill should have gone through the legislature without its extraor- o a origit rojected. Property holders are seen gtr way and it appears most probable that the route previously decided Upon will be abandoned.
