The meeting of the Federation of Liquor Dealers at Faber's Hall yesterday afternoon, mention of which was made in Tue Star of yesterday, did not result in the excited discus- sion of the liquor question anticipated by the President of the federation when he requested that the reporters should submit their reports toan inspection before sending them to their papers, cbout the most important business done being the election of the following officers: President, Michael P. Sullivan; vice president, Hugh Cosgrove; recording and corresponding secretary, E. L. Jordan; financial secretary. Frank P. Madigan, and treasurer, William Me- Guire. Four additional members of the board of directors: Lew Neumeyer, W. A. Power, E. Walsh and J. E. Dal ‘ME, CLARKE’S ADDRESS. Mr. John A. Clarke, one of the attorneys for the liquor dealers, having been invited to address the meeting, expressed some regret that it was not possible for him to photograph those present that he might contrast them with those who classed them as ‘‘rum sellers.” Mr. Clarke's regret was the regret of those present, for the remark was loudly applauded. He ex- plained that the meeting was not called for the purpose of shedding blood, but that those attending the meeting had come as law-abiding citizen: A decision had been recently rendered against them, but he thanked God that there was a higher court, Those who con- demned the liquor dealers forgot that the dealers had homes and that they were reputable citizens. The case decided by Judge Miller in the police court was merely a test case, said Mr. Clarke, and if the dealers had imagined that Were not the men he had supposed they were. Mr. Clarke advised the dealers to abuse no one, the District Commissioners, Judge Miller nor any one else, but to be men, conservative and abiding.” Judge Milier’s decision would, he felt certain, be reversed by the upper court and their rights be secured to them.

As is well known the plan of Com- missioner MeDonaid is to establish a stillwater channel alongside of the falls of solid masonry, into which fish struggling against the rapid current of the falls will be forced for safety. | This channel is to be divided into six sections of ireiined planes, not inappropriaceiy named fish lndders, of an easy imciination, with har- bors of retreat formed by iron rods inclined up stream so as to offer resistance toa backward movement. The first step baving been resched by the force of the current in this shaliow water, the strugghug fish may be urged on to a succeeding harbor. and thus by gradual west- | ward efforts, aided by eastern resistances of | these iron-protected harbors, may find himself | landed upon a level above, irom which another | simiar ladder of ascent’ may continue him on his journey until the rapids are thus | passed. In addition to this solid masonry, with its iron protectors, wood is used in completing | these safe harbors, and to all appenrances the work as developed by its projector seems theoretically impregnable.

Armstrong was added to the committee and Dr. G. W. Fisher made chairman pro tem. Vending the preparation of the resolutions there was a vigorous interchange of ideas. The resolutions, as reported, were generally deciared to be too tame and diplomatic. ‘The Anacos- tans wanted to singe the Commissioners with words of fire. Discussion followed.

The London Standard’s Vienna correspond- ent tells us of the very newest thing in news— my idea translated into fact. ‘The first “‘ieiephonie newspaper” appeared in Pesth yestercuy. In other words, the Intest items of news—political, local, commercial, sporting and other—are sent out from a central ‘office by telephone to the subscribers, who for this intelligence pay the very modest sum of seventy-five cents a month. ‘This novel under- taking comprises at its central office two de- partments—a regulcr editorial office, which re- ceives the telegraphic and oral messages and works them up into leaders or paragraphs, and a special telephonic, publishing department where experienced spenkers, each possessing a soft but distinct voice, transmit through the instruments the contents of the manuscripts delivered from hour to hour by tie first depart- ment. There are two languages used—German and Hungarian. ‘The news includes stock exchange uotations and financial articles, reports of trical performances, book reviews and par- agraphs on ail the miscellaneous topics foud ina cally newspaper. ‘The subscribers who re- ceive the news have a square wooden tablet be- fore them, from which are nded two tubes long enough to reach their ears when they are sitting in an easy chair or at a writing desk or even when lying in bed. The service commences at 8 o'clock in the morning and lasts until 9in the evening. ‘The novelty has #o far been very well received in the Hungarian capital. = Taz Tavzspert Exurnitiox of oil paint- ings bas been placed in room 205, Lenman Building, 1495 New York avenue, where, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily, those who enjoy’ pict- ures are iy od eee es phical Union, No. Publobers tsiay” Shorter hours will lI fed. in build | attimes, and then azain at night iny limbs would ache severely, !
