Coat consulate at Kehl, Germany, for false represen- tation as to his military eervices and for fraud- {aie as consul. The case has been under investigation by Secretary Foster for the ast month, and definite action was taken on turday. Mr. Johnson was first appointed to the consular service in 1872, has at various times undergone investigation, and was once re- moved, but soon afterward re-entered the service and has maintained his position upon the representation that he was repeatedly wounded at var‘ous battles during the civil war and was thereby greatly impaired in health. Recent charges as to his accounts and official conduct led to an in tion of his military service, which showed that his army record was ‘bad; that he was not in the service at the time and did not ‘ipate in the battles as al- Jeged, and that the claim made as to his wounds was entirely unfounded. He was also feund to be guilty of presenting fraudulent accounts as consul, ——_—_-e-—_______ The Star's Marvelous Editions, ‘From the Washington Sunday Herald. Tur Evexine Stan even surpassed itself in the marvelous editions issued during the en- campment, The small as well as the great in- cidents were blended to make an accurate and interesting history of the memorable celebra- tion, Tux Stan's enterprise is but another st A FEW FACTS. Tae Stan has no preposter- ons claims to offer its patrons as to its circulation last week. It printed neither a million copies nor a quarter of s mil- lion on any day. But thon no other Washington paper did 80—or could by any possibility have done so with the printing facilities at command, and any such claim is simply ridicu- lous. Below is printed an affidavit of the actual circulation, day by day, of Taz Stan. These are the figures of the complete Stans. If the issue was a twenty-page one the statement is of that many twenty-pago papers. If a sheet or four Pages is to be accounted o “copy” the figures would be five times as great. The latter course is sometimes pursued. Orders for the paper for the ‘week are still pouring in at the Tate of a thousand a day. It is certain that the circula- tion of Tue Stan was much in excess of that of any other Washington paper.

Tur Evextxe Star made a. substantial contribution to the success of the great encampment by _ produo- ing from day to day a reo- ord which is generally con- ceded to have been unrivaled for completeness and excel- lence. The week's issues form ‘journalistic monument com- memorative of the great re- union of veterans in a city whose fortunes were so closely identified with those of the armies of the Union that bat- tled around it. Recognizing the historic character of the event Tue Sram «pared no pains or expense in producing issues that in every respect Were commensurate with the occasion. It is gratifying to the publishers of Tue Star that its efforts have been fully appreciated, not only by the veterans for whose especial benefit the effort was made and by the citizens of Wath- ington, but as well by the journalists of the country, who have been liberal and hearty in their praise of work that bas never been surpassed. This, as stated, has been a contribution of THz Stan to the encampment, for notwith- standing’ the great expense of the issues the price of the Paper was not increased, single copies being sold as usual at two cents, and Tue Star for the whole’ week being mailed to any address for fifteen cents, Postage prepaid, figures which ‘meant a financial loss to Tur Evexixa Stan Compaxr on every copy issued. ———_-e-___ REPRESENTATIVE RICHARDSON. He Thinks That Mr. Cleveland Will Carry New York and Be Elected. Representative Richardson of Tennessee enid toa Stan reporter today that he had no uneasi- ness about democratic success on the national ticket in Tennessee. There was somo trouble about the lol ticket, but he did not think the democrats could be beaten on tha either. In fect, he said, the news was getting more and more favorable each day. As to the general situation he said that he was perfectly confident of Cleve- land’s election. The news he got privately from New York, he said, indicated that Cleveland would surely carry that state. The action of Mr. Hill he pronounced honorable pooch wil be of gist Denes fe whe curty a 8) of the Mee taid,"“There never wanany grounds fer dosbting that he would do the right thing.

He Will Work for the Success of the Demo- cratic Party. * People who have been counting on revolts by | Prominent men in either party are beginning to realize how vain is sucha hope. Mr. Hill bas settled the question of working for the party which he has so often proclaimed himself loyal to as Quay, Dudley and Piatt settled the question of their attitude toward the republican party during the campaign. there mas be in either party it will not appear among men as prominent as these and as de- Pendent as they are upon their parties for their future. to work for their respective parties or retire from politics. There is no doubt that Mr. Hill is still extremely sore and believes that a great injustice has been done him. If Mr. Cleveland could be defeated without hurting the party euch ar sult would give Mr. Hill joy. ‘But Mr. Hill friends have pointed out ‘to him, and he pro! ably saw for himself, independently of any Suggestion, that the defeat of Mr. Cleveland, should he’ be defeated, would be charged to Hill and his friends, and that therefore no one was more interested in the success of the ticket in New York than Hill himself. It has been known to men here all along that Hill would come out and make just such speeches 48 those made in Brooklyn and Buffalo, though shortly after the nomination of Cleveland he was not disposed to take any part whatever in the campaign. Itis regarded as perfectly safe to rely on his doing everything he can for the success of the ticket, but a personal Teconciliation between him and Cleveland ts not expected. Mr. Hill prefers to have it understood that his work is for the party, and mind. aday or two ago, said that Hill would work | With the state committee and independently. but would not take orders from the national | committee; that he would do ail he could for the success of the party ticket, but do it in his own way, and that his personal and political friends would be loyal to the party at all times, z -o-— = FORT MYER’S WATER SUPPLY. It Is to Be Investigated by the War Depart- ment. It is understood that a board consisting of an army surgeon and a government chemist will be asked by the War Department to inves- tigate the water eupply of Fort M as it is feared that an inadequate supply in dry weather may endanger the health of the troops quartered there. Itis said at the de- partment that the published report of a high sick rate among the troops is somewhat exag- gerated. There are more than usnal on the sick list, however, and it is alleged that many of the dis! eases are the result of insufficient and impure water. ees ae DR. HAMMETT’S OPINION. He Thinks the Schools fore Monday Health Officer Hammett is of the opinion that it will be impossible to open the public schools of the District before next Monday. He stated to a reporter of Tue Sran this morning that he had ordered a large quanti of sulphur candles with which to fumigate the school premises and expected them Saturday, but owing to the freight blockade they had not yet arrived. He bad, however, directed that they should be sent by express, and expected to receive them this afternoon. He said his force had examined but a few of the school houses, and had found them in no unnsuaily bad condition. The floors.he said, would be thorougiily cleansed with fumigating’ fluids, the sulphur candles burned throughout the premises and every- thing needful done. “Of course,” explained Dr. Hammett, “the buildings need a thorough cleaning, but there | is no necessity for parents to feel alarmed be- catize of the ocedpaney of the school houses last week by such a large number of strangers.

LOTS OF LUMBER FOR SALE. The departure of the veterans bas left the committee with a large stock of salable goods on hand. There isan especial profusion of lum- ber, the total quantity purchased some time ago being somewhere in the 1,000,000 feet. The barracks will be sold one ata time and standing. Much of the material is in first-class condition. The boards are re- spectively 12, 14 and 16feetlong, the majority of them being ‘ixteen.
