Conrad, under the direction of Mr. John Hyde, special mt in charge of the division of agriculture. e total number of planters in the state during the census year was 1,861; the total area devoted to tobacco, 423 acres: the total pro- duct, 175,706 pounds; and the value of the crop to the producer, estimated on basis of actual sales, $15,1 Cax’t Cuaxoz tH Pracrice.—A question was recently presented to the Treasury De- partment by the collector of customs at New York whether, in cases where the circuit court has overruled’ the appeal of his office or sus tained the appeal of the importers, direct re- liquidation and refund can be made by him or whether certified statements shall be trans- mitted to the department and refund made on thesame. Acting Secretary Spaulding hi formed the collector that the department is of opinioa that the latter course, which is the one now in practice, should continue to be followed. Canpipates For Commissioner oF PaTents.— The claims of several candidates for the posi- tion of commissioner of patents are being pre sented to the President, but as yet he has reached no decision. Those most prominently mentioned in connection with the place are ex- Representative Simmons of Connecticut, who was chairman of the patent committee he last house; Mr. T. A. ani member of a firm of patent attorneys in Chicago, and Mr. N. L. Frothingham of Massachusetts, who is the assistant commissioner of patents. Mr. Mitchell, the commissioner, expects to leave the city next week for his usual vacation. It is not known when the change will be made. Onzs axp Caupe Merats.—In regard to the smelting and refining of imported ores and erude metals in bond, Acting Secretary Spaulding has informed the collector of cus- toma at Newark, N. J., thot in “order to obtain a eredit on the ware house bond for the duties charged at the rate of 2cents per pound on 100 pounds of lead bullion, showing on analysis % per cent pure lead, the smelter and refiner must export 88.2 ounds of retined lead, which will be equal to $0 per cent of the number of pounds contained in 100 pounds of the bullion operated on as contemplated by the regulations.” ‘Tur Brazn1ax Corree Cnor.—The bureau of Americar: republics reports that estimates of the Brazilian coffee crop of 1890-91, now com- ing into market, continue to diminish. The first estimate was 5,000,000 bags, ext 3,500,000, ‘and now it is believed that the crop will not exceed 2,200,000 bags. Notwithstanding the in- centive of higher prices than have ever been paid before, the daily receipts do not average over 3,000 bags. Disorganization of labor is the chief difficuity, and should it continue it is be- lieved that the coffee crop of 1891-92, now placed at 8,000,000 or 9,000,000 bugs, will not yield more than 6,000,000 or 7,000,000 baga.

THE COMMISSIONERS’ MOTIVES, Why Dr. Hammett Was-Not Appointed to Succeed Dr. Townshend as Health Officer. The recent change of attitude on the part of the Commissioners respecting the successor of Dr. Townshend as health officer of the District has given rise to considerable comment as to tho motives influencing their action. It is understood, in fact hinted at the District building. that the choice of Dr. Hammett in the first place was a deep political scheme which had in view the removal of Collector of ‘Taxes Davisand the appointment of Mr. An- derson, a well-known Grand Army man. ‘The scheme referred to was to appoint Dr. Hammet, « well-known domocrat, health officer, and then when the unfavorable com- ment on the part of the republicans came in to Pens matters up by ousting the collector of es. The scheme, however, fell through on ac- count of the interference of the President, who did not desire the appointment of Dr. Ham- met It is an open secret at the District building that for months past an unusually large amount Of pressure has been brought to bear upon the Commissioners to get them to remove tor Davi iso well known that Col. Robert, while It willing to vote for a change in any office where an improvement was possible, was opposed to the removal of Tax liector Davis, whom he considers an efficient officer. DR. HAMMETT INDIGNANT. He Says Something Will Turn Up ino Short Time Explaining Things. Dr. C. M. Hammett, the physician first de- cided upon as the successor of Dr. Townshend, was at the District building for some time this morning in consultation with the Commission ors. Dr. Hammett was very indignant at the manner the Commissioners had treated hit and while he refused to be interviewed inti- mated that something would turn up in a short time explaining certain things. scaloslaat WHO PAID FOR THE ITATA’S CARGO. Mr. Burt Says the Money Came From Eu- Tope. Mr. George A. Burt, former superintendent of the Panama railroad, who was recently in- dicted in San Francisco for shipping arms on the schoone> Robert and Minnie, which were subsequently transferred to the Chilian steam- ship Itata, was interviewed in New York yester- aay by a Tribune reporter. “A greatdeal has been said,” remarked Mr. Burt, “regarding the people who furnished the money to buy the arms which were shipped by the Robert and Minnie. probably Enow #6 much about that as anybody, and I assure you that the credits were established in Eu- rope. I do not feel at eee Gd sayin what part of Europe—it may have been in England or on the contiuent—the money for the pur- chase was furnished. No New York firm had any hand in the matter. As for myself, I have violated no international law. Ihave aeted in accordance with it, and if I have maintained euy secrecy in regard to the shipment of the arms which were on the Robert and Minnie, it was because those arms might have been seized on the ocean by a ship of Belmacéde’s navy and the seizure might have been justified on the ground that they were contraband of war. ‘his is my statement of the case, and I can say, with Martin Luther, ‘Here stand 1; God help'me, I could not do otherwise,’” Sint Ivcreastxa.—The United States treas- urer today states the surplus at $3,027,137 in excess of fractional silver and deposits in national banks. Arrorxtep TexiER.-—Col. Amos Webster, formerly chief clerk of the Treasury Depart- ment, has been appointed teller in the office of the controller of the currency at a salary of $2,000 per annum. A Soupren'’s Rewarp.—The President has issued a certificate of merit to Harry W. Cap- ron, corporal company B, seventh cavalry, for distinguisbe? service in action at Wounded Knew Creek, 8. D., December 29 last. Annest or CouNTERFEITERS.—The Treasury Depa.tment is informed that Alfred C. Green, J. A. Walker, J. B. Lewbaugh' have been arrested in St. Louis for counterfeiting 10 cont, 25 cont and i silver coins. A Souprer Drowxep.—Private Kouba of bat- tey I, third artillery, from Fort McHenry, was drowned at Fort Monroe while bathing last night. He leaves a wife and two children in Baltimore. His body has not yet been re- cove Caxxoz Br Attowep.—Acting Secretary Spaulding has informed the collector of cus toms at San Francisco that the department is of opinion that neither refined sugar nor any other article exported with benetit of a draw- back can be reimported for the p of be- ing warehoused and re-exported in bond with- out payment of duties. ‘Tax Caprver.—A regular meeting of the cabinet was held today, beginning at 11:30 o'clock. The absentees were Secretaries Blaine and Proctor and Attorney General Miller. The principal topic of discussion was the con- tinued coinage of silver after July 1, and the Secretary of the Troasury presented consider- able data on that subject. Cot. J. B. Wesen, superintendent of immi- gration at New York, had a conference with Assistant Secretary Nettleton at the Treasury Department today in regard to his visit to Eu- Tope as chairman of the commission appointed to investigate the sources and causes of emi- tion to the United States. He will sail from jew York on the 8th proximo and will meet his associates in London. Nava Oremations 1m Curu.—The Navy Department has received @ report from Ad- mira] MoCann, on board his flagship Baltimore, dated Iquique, Cli, May 26, saying that there is little or no probability of a demonstration by water against Valparaiso or other southern port by the revolutionary fleet. On the con- trary, the government torpedo cruisers Almi- MORE BROOM WANTED, Leasing Outside Quarters so as to Better Ac commodate the Patent Omfce. ‘Two floors in the new building that is being erected at the northwest corner of 11th and @ streets have been leased by the Interior Depart- ment. About the Ist of July three divisions of the general and office, namely the ac- counts, private land claims and « part of the recorder's division will be removed from the Interior Department build- ing to these new quarters. The rooms vacated ix. the department building will be occupied mainly by the patent office, #! much eramped for room. In addition it will be places for the two new and their corp general land office remaining in the department building will also have @ chance to get a little more additional space, which is very much needed. The mineral vision will occupy the rooms vacated by, the divisions of accounts. When this change is ef- fected there will be four divisions of the general land office in quarters outside of the depart- ment building. The contest division now occupies the whole of the building at the northwest corner of 8th a dG streets. The lease of the floors in the net ing is only a tem) expedient, as it is believed ‘that it will be possible to secure @ building large enough to accommodate the entire Ind office. Con- gress has made an appropriation of €16, to pay the rent of such a building, and one or two propositions have been made to the depart- ment contemplating the erection of a building, which, owing to the character of must be fite pro f. No definite action has at 3 n by the department, but it is probable that before the expiration of the next fiscal year the entire land office will be out the department building. When that result ia attained the department building will be left to the sole use of the Secretary’ office and the‘patent office. The former is not large and occupies comparatively only a few rooms, so that practically the patent office will spread over the whole building. This is believed by the patent office officials to be the manifest destiny of that office. It is claimed that the building was originaliy intended for the use of the patent office, and the prospect that it is to be given up sor their use is a pleas- ing one to those who are anxious that the pat- ent office should have su‘ficient room to enable the important public business to be properly performed. ae TAMMANY’S FOURTH. Candidates for the Next Speakership to Test ‘Their Standing. The Fourth of July celebration of Tammany is looked forward to with a deep interest by the several candidates for the speakership of the next House. The politicians outside of New York regard this meeting us one of considerable importance in more ways than one, but chieily they are interested in discovering by the measure of enthusiasm with which the name of each is received what the feeling of Tammany is with regard to cer- tain prominent democrats. Nearly all the speakership candidates are expected to be there. The most active rivalry for the New York delegation is between Crisp, McMillin and Mills, all of whom are expected to talk patriotism to Tammany. Crisp, whohas been chosen to deliver the principal long speech of the occasion, is supposed to be stronger in New York thea any other candidate, but the disposition of the delegation is sumcientiy im doubs to make wi the candi- dates anxious for the opportunity to measure their strength. All the big democratte poll: ticians, too, are anxious to see how the name of Cleveland will be received at the meetin ‘McMillin is now in Washington awaiting time to keep his engagement with Tammany and is believed to be preparing to make a tcli- ing speech. ‘Mr. Bynum was to have been one of the can- didates to attend the celebration, but he saii today that he did not think he would be able to go. ————__2+____. NO SPLIT IN THE ALLIANCE. What Dr. McCune Says of the Opposition of Mal. Dr. McCune, the alliance leader, denies that there is any serious split in the alliance on ac- count of opposition to the subtreasury schome. “Of course,” he says, “‘there are some who op- pose the plan, but the opposition doer not amount to one in a hundred. The papers make a great deal out of a little talk, and there isa considerabl2 misapprehension. President Polk called for the resignation of Hall, the head of the Missouri alliance, from the committee long before the Texas meeting in opposition to the subtreasuary was called. His resignation wat asked for because he had violated his obliga- tions. There is not going to be any division of the alliance. There will be a meeting of the Missouri alliance and Mr. Hall will have to an- wer to his own le. He will not be re- elected and that end it.” Adjustment of Postmasters’ Salaries. ‘The annual adjustment of the salaries of postmasters of third-class post offices, based upon the receipts, has just been completed by Mr. Albert H. Scott, chief of the salary’and allowance division.
