THETHREE VACANCIES |THE UNITED STATES MINT./THE SENATE STEERER| THE O'STRICT OFFICES.|CHASED BY CHINAMEN In the S&cnite Cause Considerable Discussion Today. AQUESTION OF EXPEDIENCY AS 0 THEM. Mr. Chandler Uncertain How He Will Vote. NO QUORUM IN THE HOUSE. THE SENATE. Mr. Aldrich (R. 1) introduced a joint resolution (which was referred) similar to the one introduced in the House by Mr. Cummings, authorizing the President to make with other governments an interna- tional agreement for the reporting, mark- ing and removing of dangerous wrecks, derelicts and other menaces to navigation in the North Atlantic ocean. Mr. Teller (Col.) offered a resolution, which went over until tomorrow, calling upon the of the Treasury for in- formation as to when, in what amounts, and under what circumstances the Treas- ury ent has anticipated the pay- ment of the annual interest in government bonds since July 1, 1880. To Postpone Action. Tie resolution offered by Mr. Dubois @daho) yesterday to postpone action on findncial, tariff and federal election meas- ures until next January, when the states of Washington, Montana and Wyoming may be fully represented in the Senate, was taken up, and Mr. Dubois made an argu- ent in its support. He described the im- rtance of the question involved. Three states were now, he said, deprived of their vote and importance in measures that were vitally important to them. It was no fault of the people of those three states that they were not fully represented in the Senate. It was their misfortune, which the Senate could cure. Mr. Dubois then went at some length into the history of the case, and quoted largely from Mr. Hoar’s majority report from the committee on privileges and elections in favor of seating the then claimants. He had no reasonable doubt that if his resolu- tion were adopted the governors and legis- latures of the three states would see to it that their full quota of Senators would be in the Senate before the time fixed by him. He imagined the case of a “force bill” being brought before the Senate while three of the southern states were only partially rep- resented, or the case of a tariff bill pending when three New England states were in the like position, and he asked whether, in the one case, the constitutional right’ of every state to have two Senators at all times would not be perfectly plain to Sen- ators from the south, and, in the other case, equally plain to Senators from New Eng- land. ‘It was dangerous, he said, to pro- ceed with the pending legislation until those states which were so seriously affected by it had @ proper representation in the Sen- ate. A Remarkable Proposition. Mr, Mitchell (Oreg.) said that he agreed, in the main, with the position of the Sena- tor from Idaho as fo the inadvisability of rushing through a repeal of the silver pur- chasing act without substituting some other Iegislation. While regretting, as much as the Senator from Idaho could regret, the fact that those three states were, unfor- vant appraisers: P. E. tunately, deprived for the time being of one Senator ‘each, he regarded the proposition of the Senator from Idaho as one of the most remarkable that had ever been pre- sentéd to the Senate. For that reason, not- withstanding his great sympathy for those states, he should oppose the resolution to the bitter end. He put the case of a Sena- tor dying or being expelled, and asked whether the Senate should then “call halt” until the vacancy was filled. Such a proposition could not be maintained for a solitary moment either now or at any other time. What steps, he asked, had those states taken during the last month looking to a full representation in the Senate? Had the governor of any one of them con- vened the legislature for the purpose of filling them? Mr. Chandler's Positt Mr. Chandler (N. H.) suggested to Mr. Dubois not to press the resolution for ac- tion, but to let It go over for the present, because the course of events might, in a few days, show its adoption to be unneces- sary. He was willing to vote at any time to postpone action on the federal law and on the tariff. But, inasmuch as he prepos- ed, now, to vote for the passage of the re- peal bill, he was not prepared to decide now whether he would or would not vote to post- pone action on that bill until after those three vacant seats were filled. He suggest- ed the consideration of the resolution be Postponed until debate on the pending ques- tion be exhausted. It was conceded, he said, that there were many days yet of de- bate before the repeal bil could be voted on, and the situation at chat time might be such that he should be unwilling to vote for the resolution. On the other hand the situation might be such that he should be willing to vote for the resolution. If there should appear to be a large majority in fa- yor of the repeal bill, so that three addi- tional votes against it would not affect the then he should emphatically yote on the resolution. On the other hand, if it should appear probable that the vote ‘would be so close that the bill could not be passed with the three vacant seats filled, he should hesitate a long time be- fore he insisted upon It that such a great question should be decided differently from the way in which it would be uecided if the Senate were full. Mr. Platt asked Mr. Chandler how he Proposed to ascertain the probabilities of the vote on the repeal bill. Mr. Chandler replied that he proposed to use his own judgment on that point. A Change of Votes. In the course of further remarks Mr. Chandler alluded to the change of votes on the admission of the three appointed Sena- tors, and quoted Mr. Mitchell ag saying last session that their admission would have a majority of from 12 to 15. Mr. Mitchell denied that he made that statement, but admitted that he had said they would have a majority. “And lo and behold,” said Mr. Chandler, “after the Senate met in this extraordi- nary session, that majority of 12 to 15 had vanished. I’ make no accusation against Senators who changed their opinion, their attitude and their vote on that question. I make no imputation on their motives. I am bound to presume that they were not in- fluenced by their desire for the passage of the repeal bill or by th@r desire to increase the democratic majority in the Senat (Continued on Sixth page.) ————_——— SPECIAL NOTICES.

Sketch of His Long Service in the Treasury Department — Other Presidential Nominatio ‘The President sent to the Senate today the following nominations: Robt. E. Preston of the District of Col- umbia, to be director of the mint. Third Lieut. F. G. Dodge of Massachu- setts, to be a second Heutenant in the rev- enue cutter service. Mr. Robert E. Preston, whose nomina. tion for the position of director of the mint was sent to the Senate today by the Pres- ident, was born at Bean's station, Granger county, Tenn., in 1836. He received a com- mon school education, and at the age of seventeen started in lite asa clerk in the store of J. C. Greenway, dry goods mer- chant in Abingdon, Va., receiving a salary of $8 per month and his board. He contin- ued in that capacity until April 1, 1856, when through the influence of friends, without any solicitation on his part, Mr. James Guthrie, then Secretary of the Treasury, appointed him to a clerkship of class 1 in the office of the firat auditor, where he gave entire satisfaction to his ‘superiors, and through merit was successively promoted to the various clerkships until he reached the highest grade at $1,800 per annum. ‘While in the auditor's office Mr. Preston had charge of the mint accounts, so that when the bureau of the mint was organ- ized in 1873 Dr. Henry R. Linderman, the first director of the mint, requested that he be transferred to that bureau. Mr. Preston, however, declined the transfer, but in the following year Dr. Linderman, in view of his thorough fitness for the position, tender- ed him the place of examiner of the mints, which he accepted and has since filled with credit to himself and satisfaction to the successive directors of the mint, se much so in fact that at their several requests he has been designated by the Secretary of the Treasury to act as director in their ab- ce. From his long experience and thorough knowledge of mint matters Mr. Preston is ply cantopea ir the a of director of and his appointment meets with the approval of the public. ————+ e+ THE SENATE CONFIRMS A Number of Pre ~ meni The Sena Nominations: Frauk H.

CHOLERA’S INCREASE. mtinl Appoint- at Yesterday's Session. has confirmed the following A Physician Has a New Theory Con- cerning Yellow Fever. A telegram received this morning at the office of the surgeon general, through the State Department from the United States consul at Leghorn, brovght the information that cholera is increasing to an alarming extent at that place. Within the past twenty-four hours there have been twenty- fix new cases and fifty-six cases are now under treatment. According to a telegram received in this city from Atlanta, Ga., Dr. J. J. Knott of that city ts of the opinion that he has dis- covered the true cause of yellow fever and the remedy for it. He says it is nothing more nor less than phosphoric poison. He left last night for Washington to present his views to Surgeon General Wyman, and ask to be sent to Brunswick to test his theory on the yellow fever sufferers there. Surgeon General Wyman stated to a Star reporter this morning that he had reason to believe that Dr. Knott is on his way to this city and upon his arrival here he will be given an opportunity to express his views. The surgeon general said that there are scores of people all the time who think they have hit upon the true cause and remedy for yellow fever. He declined to express any opinion as to the possible merits of this particular theory until he should have a more complete idea of it than the mere bald statement that yellow fever is phosphoric poisoning. euiin ae GOVERNMENT BONDS. Some Information in Regard to Their , Purchase Sent to the Senate. It ts probable that never before has the ‘Treasury Department been so flooded with resolutions calling for information as it has been during this extraordinary session, due of course, to the pending debate on the financial question. The latest reply to a query of the Senate came today in response to a resolution of the 19th instant, direct- ing the Secretary to acquaint the Senate when and in what amounts government bonds have been purchased since 1879, the rate and the aggregate amount of premium paid on such purchases; whether any such Purchases have been made without the notice required by law, and what amount of public moneys, by years, has been deposited in national banks since 1879, and what in- terest these institutions paid for the use of the money. It appears from the treasury statement that during the fourteen years covered by the inquiry bonds have been purchased only during six years, 1880, 1881 and 1888 to 1891 inclusive, the total aggregating $46,- 459,450, and the net premium on the same being $60,125,217.98. It will be seen that there were no bonds purchased from 1882 to 1887. inclusive. During that period there were outstanding, bonds which had become re- deemable at the pleasure of the government and the surplus revenues were applied to their redemption at par. There have been no purchases since 1891. In regard to the implied violation of law the Secretary says there is no law requiring the department to give public notice of the purchase by the government of its bondi but that there have been no such purchases since 1879 except in pursuance of public notice. The amount of public money hela by national bank depositories is found to range from a little more than seven million of dollars in 187 to the high water mark of almost fifty-five million in 188, from which point it declined to a little more than twelve million for the last fiscal year. No interest has been paid for the use of this money. ———_-e+____ Personal Mention. Mr. O. B, Hallam has returned to his home after three weeks’ stay at the world’s fair and Detroft.

A LIVELY TIME IN THE SENATE It Was Precipitated by the Du Bois Resolution. BITTER PERSONALITIES. eee ree Today's session of the Senate was the most exciting of any tnat hus occurred since the beginning of the silver debate. It was marked by bitter personulltivs, the dis- closure of some secrets, and a general be- fuddlement of the atmosphere that sur- rounds the fate of the repeal bill. The sil- ver men charged the repeal leaders with at- tempts to force the Senate next week to sit from 11 o'clock in the morniug until mid- night. Senator Chandler announced that al- though he would vote for repeal, he was not in complete accord with the repeal party. Senator Gorman was denounced by Mr. Wolcott as the steering committee of the Senate,assisted by Mr. Aldrich of Rhode Island, and Mr. Gorman accused Mr. Wol- cott of eavesdropping. Altogether, it was a very lively day. The whole matter was precipitated by Mr. Dubois’ resolution to postpone the consid- eration of silver, tariff and clection ques- tions until January 15, ur after the three states of Washington, Wyoming and Mon- fone about have filled the vacancies in the nate. Mr. Chandler Arrests Attenti There had beer no particular attention paid to the debate thus far, but when Sen- ator Chandler arose there was a general swinging around of chairs and he had a very full audience. He reviewed the his- tory of the case of the three Senators who were rejected by the Senate, and claimed that in the early consideration of the case; in April it was admitted by those who op- posed their admission that there would be @ majority of from 10 to 15 in favor of them. On the second consideration, how- ever, in August, that majority had myste- riously disappeared, and in its stead there was a majority against seating the three Senators. Senator Hoar suggested a compromise, to be effected by debating the silver bill with- out voting until the three states should have a chance to re-elect Senators. He said 1t was apparent from the attitude of Mr. Mitchell that Mr. Dubois eould not count upon the unqualified support of all his friends on the silver side in his post- ni resolution. PerCan we count upon the support of those who are not on our side of the silver ques- tion?” asked Mr. DuBois. ‘ “I think you probably can,” was Mr. Hoar’s reply. Mr. Wolcott Throws a Firebrand. It was at this time that Senator Wolcott cast his firebrand upon the tinder that was scattered over the Senate floor. He alluded to the change of votes upon the question of admission of Mr. Mantle, and sald that there could be no question ebout the muta- bility of human nature. He quoted the words of Sancho Panza thus, “Every man is as God hath made him, and often times @ great deal worse.” He sald that the peo- ple of the three states in question need not distress themselves about the tariff ques- tlon or the election laws. They would have ample time to elect their Senators to vote upon the silver bill now pending. That would be true in spite of the cruel and un- usual hours that had been tmposed upon the Senate. Senator Aldrich interposed a question while Mr. Wolcott was talking about the readiness of the silver men to take a vote upon cloture and showed a good deal of feeling, which was a hint of the scenes that were about to follow. Mr. Wolcott went on to sa} “We are not “‘thout inclination that the burden that is v so heavy upon the shoulders of the sciate will be made much heavier next week. We are informed that an agree- ment has been reached among those who are in favor of repeal for the Senate to meet at 11 o'clock each day and to con- tinue in session until midnight. This has been initiated by the Senator who {s sup- posed to be the ‘steerer’ of so many Sena- tors on the democratic side who have de- serted thelr party and platform and allied themselves with the personal fortunes of the executive. He has consulted with the Senator on this side of the chamber who is known as the dominant apostle of protec- tion. Mr. Wolcott evidently alluded to Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island from the amused glances that were cast upon the latter from all parts of the chamber. Mr. Wolcott went on to say that the proposition to sit until midnight would be futile. Senator Allen Chips I Senator Allen of Nebraska secured the floor at once and it was generally felt that the end of the incident had come, for the Populist from the northwest was expected to make a long third party speech that would tire everybody out and give the an- tagonists a chance to cool off. Mr. Allen explained that though he had voted against the admission of the three Senators he should vote in favor of postponement be- cause he felt that there would be a great injustice done the three states if a vote on the silver bill should be taken with their representation incomplete. During one of his characteristic arguments to show the increasing poverty of the people he alluded to the recent blood riots in New York. An Interruption by Mr. Hill. Senator Hill interrupted to affirm that it was the Sherman act that caused these riots. A heated discussion arose between Senators Hill, Allen, Gray and Butler, in which the South Carolina Senator en- deavored to pin Mr. Hill down to an ex- pileit statement of just how the Sherman act affected the people. He claimed that there was just as much money in the city of New York now as at any other’ time, and challenged Mr. Hill to deny it, but the wily Senator from’ New York had left the chamber, and Mr. Gray did not care to answer for him. Senator Allen, continuing, alluded to the Sherman act as a measure that its author had acknowledged to be a makeshift to prevent the passage of the ffee coinage bill. It was a trick to deceive the people, and its author had admitted it to be such, Senator Sherman Involved. Senator Hoar called Mr. Sherman's at- tention to these words, but the latter de- clined to answer the populist Senator until me again referred to what he sald was Senator Sherman's admission that the act was intended to deceive the people. Then Mr. Hoar called out loud enough to be heard in the galleries, “he has said it again,” and Mr. Sherman arose to ask Senator Allen if he had really said such a thing. Mr. Allen disclaimed these words and explained that he had merely said that Senator Sherman had admftted that the bill was a compromise to defeat fi silver. A murmur of amused dissent arose from ‘the galleries and the floor, but Sena- tor Sherman accepted the apology and sat down. Senator Allen concluded in a few mintes, and there was a general hurrying into the chamber from the cloak room as Mr. Gorman: arose to address the Senate. Mr. Gorman’s Lecture. ‘This was an unusual thing as the Mary- land Senator usually sits quiet during the debate. He sald, “We are all aware that the pending resolution ts one of a series which we all know have been introduced for the purpose of consuming the two hours' devoted to morning business. It was a part of the plan of the silver opposition to consume time. It ts natural, it is very right and no one can object." Mr. Gorman went on to criticise the manner of conducting the debate and said that the scenes of the past week were without paralell in the history of the country. “The opponents of (Continued on Sixth page.) Though the President Has Not Given Them Much Attention, Some of Them May Be Filled Within @ Day or Two — Mr. Ross High in Favor. ‘The President has so far given no inti- mation whatever of his intentions in regard to District intments, and, according to the best possible information, he has not yet given the matter “serious attention.” The fact that the term of Commissioner Ross has expired has been brought to his notice, as has also the fact that Marshal Ransdell has served the full four years of his term. In the latter case it has also I been pointed out that a new quarter be- gins in a few days, and that in case a change in the marshalship is determined upon it would facilitate matters if it were made before the next quarter. ‘Wilt Take His Time. While the President appreciates these considerations, it is sald that they are not sufficient to provoke him to act until he has had ample time to consider his course in the matter. Other questions of far greater importance to the nation at large hhave engrossed so much of his time since the meeting of Congress that it is said he has not been able to give local questions the consideration they deserve. It is known that he does not regard Immediate action essential in the case of Commissioner Ross, for the reason that the statute under which his appointment was made permits his per- forming the full functions of his office until his successor shall have been appointed and confirmed, regardless pf the fact that the term for which he was appointed has ex- pired. Mr. Ross’ excellent service in his trying position is one of the strongest reasons for the general belief among his many friends that he will be his own suc- cessor. There is good authority for the statement that he is held in high esteem at the White House, and that he stands an excellent chance of reappointment. That this impression is strong with the democ- racy of the District ts evidenced by the fact that no special efforts are being made to bring about the appointment of any one else. There is but one open candidate in the fleld—Mr. Boteler of Georgetown—and his advocates have confined their public op- erations to filing a petition with Private Secretary Thurber. A ‘good deal of quiet wire pulling in the interests of other will- ing citizens may be in progress, but if so it has not yet made itself manifest in the usual quarters. May Come With: a Day or Two. Although tt is not probable that any local appointments will be made for some time yet, it 1s just possible that the President may dispose of the matter within the next day or two. This would not be at all tm- probable in the event that he decides on the reappointment of Corjmissioner Ross. It is generally believed that this appointment will be settled before the others are finally considered. Those regarded as being next in order of settlement are the marshal- ship, the recorder of deeds and the register | of wills. The postmaster and the district | attorney are not likely to be disturbed for | some time to come, in view of the fact that | thelr terms of office began at a much later | date than the others. ——-o + MR. -MORGAN’S DENIAL ‘That There is Any Personal Alterca- tion With the President. After the heated argument between Sen- ators Palmer and Stewart yesterday after- noon, which was outlined in The Star of last evening, the Nevada silver leader con- fined his remarks to generalities that aroused little interest, and after about an hour more of talk he yielded the floor to Senator Morgan, who desired to pay atten- tion to the allusions made to him by the Times. He said: “Iam very happy to state that between the President and myself there exists the most cordial personal relations. They have al- ways existed, and I hope they ever will; for I esteem and prize him very highly in all Personal respects, and in his public career. think that the history of Mr. Clevelind is a history which illustrates some of the high- est of the American character. I differ with Mr. Cleveland in some of his views of public policy. I do not think that I differ with him on any questions that are vital to the country, or vital to the demo- cratic party. “With this statement I feel justified in say- ing that in this particular article the paper played the part simply of a mischief-maker. ‘There was no occasion for that newspaper to take me up or Mr. Cleveland, and to bring us together in this irritating and un- fortunate attitude to each other, and which, without explanation, the country might understand to be real and true, whereas it is simply and maliciously false. We bold no such relations to each other as are indicated in that article.”” Mr. Voorhees Defends. Mr. Voorhees said he was very glad to hear the remarks of the Senator from Ala- bama in regard to the assault which had ‘been made upon the President for the last two days. He desired to account for the at- titude of silence observed on the democratic side of the chamber in the face of the as- sault. It was that it had not been thought necessary to say a single word in defense of Mr. Cleveland, from the time he was born in New Jersey up to the present hour. Whether Senators differed from Mr. Cleve- land or agreed with him, nobody failed to recognize his stalwart and powerful char- acter and his high integrity. He hoped that this ttle tribute would be taken as suffi- clent to account for the fact that the demo- cratic side of the chamber would not feel called upon to enter upon any defense of the President unless something far more im- portant was charged against him than had been charged up to this time. The Senate at 6 p. m., after a short ex- ecutive session, adjourned. —_——-2.+____. Redemption of Paper Money. The Treasury Department is redeeming United States paper money and national bank notes at the rate of about $1,250,000 a day. The paper money coming in for re- demption is of an unusually dirty and torn character and shows that it has been used up to the limit, both as regards health and safety of value. During the financial strin- gency, when paper money and, in fact, every class of money was scarce, banks and other holders of paper money would not part with It as long as a bill would hold together, but now that money is becoming more plentiful the amount being sent dally to the treasury for redemption is increasing. It takes only forty-eight hours to replace old bills with new ones, so that the holders are not kept ont of their money long. Most of the new notes issued in place of the old notes destroyed are of the denominations of $5, $10 and $20. The redemption force of the treasury is handling the large redemptions with dispatch at present. At one time last January the redemptions were so heavy that additional clerks had to be employed, and even then the work was two weeks behind. SES ae Fourth-Class Postmasters. The total number of fourth-class post- masters appointed today was sixty-seven; of this number forty were to fill vacancies caused by death or resignation, and twenty- seven by removal. The Virginia appointments were as fol- lows: Hilton’s, J. Curtis, vice F. G. Owens, resigned; Rensen’s, T. E. St. John, vice D. H. Scott, resigned; Sweet Hall, B. Turner, vice B. B.

An Exciting Soene in the Streojs of Chicago, RESULT OF A LAUNDRY DISPUTE Three Celestials Run Amuck in a Crowd. KNIVES AND FLATIRONS. CHICAGO, Sept. 2.—Israel Weinberg went into the laundry at 500 Jefferson street, copducied by Chimamen, and called for his linen last evening. It was not ready and he criticised the delay. Immediately Kling Ling grabbed a hatchet and made for him. As Weinberg went out the door the Chinaman struck him in the back. He ran yelling into the street and a crowd gathered about. The Chinese turned on the crowd, strik- ing right and left with the hatchet. The tumult wkich was raised drew a crowd of 600 persons about the place. As they gath- ered near the dloor another (Chinaman in the P ut and dra’ a -blad: two-edged knlte ran into the crowd cutting and slashing everybody in reach. He made his way to the corner of Wilson and Jef-| ferson streets. where the inoffensive Bob- lovinsky was standing. Without a word of warning he plunged the knife into his side twice in rapid suc- cession. The* wounded man sunk to the pavement, bleeding profusely. Turning, then he run back to the laundry, leaving @ trail | of blood in his path. A third Chinaman followed John Sam out of the laundry with a flat fron in his hand, with which he knocked down several men. A number were badly hurt by the iron, but none seriously. Several Afi 4 badly cut in the face by the broken glass thrown by Kling Ling. There were six Chinamen in the place at the time, but witnesses to the affray say but three of them were in the attack. The Chinamen gave meager versions of the affair at the police station. They say that the wounded men had attempted to rob em. The police do not believe the story, al- though money was found scattered on’ the floor when Officer Boyle arrived at the jJaundry and arrested John Low and Kling Ling. —_——___ THE REVOLT IN ARGENTINA. Col. Espina, Who Fomented Rebel- lon, Will Probably Be Shot. BUENOS AYRES, Sept. 27.—The officers and crews of the torpedo boats which at- tacked the government naval squadron yes- terday, and which were captured, were in- cited to revolt by Col. Espina. The officers and members of the crews gave their cap- tors information which, when it was laid before the government, led to Col. Espina’s arrest. The probabilities are that he will be shot as a traitor. The government has issued a decree or- dering the imprisonment of Admiral Selier. Dr. Alem was also ordered to be arrested, but he took in the German legation and thus escaped prison. All the jails are filled with other lights of the party. The states in the northern part of the Fepublic are now in open revolt. sario is now in the hands of the re- yolters. A division of Gen. Pelligrint’s forces, which went to the ald of the re- volters at Rafaela, is now marching to the city of Santa Fe. —__ YELLOW FEVER.

The naval authorities state that she had on board a crew of 200 men all told. dinette FRENCH DEMANDS OF SIAM. M.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—The United States cruiser Newark, which sailed hence om Monday last for Rio Janeiro, was spoken September 26 300 miles south of Sandy Hook by the steamer Hogarth, which ar rived this morning from Santos. The Chartes at Rio. A dispatch received at the Navy Depart ment this morning reported the arrival of the cruiser Charleston at Rio Janeiro. It was dated yesterday at Rio and signed by Commander Picking of the Charleston, and its receipt is taken as an indication that telegraphic communication with the Bra- zilian capital is once more free from cen- sorship, so far as official dispatches are concerned. No special instructions have been sent to Capt. Picking for his guidance in the pres- ent crisis in Brazil. His general imstruc- tions to “protect American interest are regarded sufficient to meet all possible contingenct when taken in connection with the naval regulations. Capt. Picking will undoubtedly put him- self in immediate communication with Mr. ‘Thompson, the American minister, and the two will act in concert in their efforts for the protection of the rights of American in- terests. The harbor of Rio will be kept open for the merchant ships of the United States, and no further interference with the com- merce of the United States will be permit- ted. In case of necessity Minister Thompson and American residents of Rio will be taken aboard the warship. It is hardly probable that such extreme action will be taken unless the threatened bombardment of the capital renders it absolutely unsafe to remain ashore in that vicinity. In general terms the Charleston will ob- serve an “armed neutrality” and will studi- ously avold even an appearance of interfer- ence with hostilities, except where the in- terests of the United States are clearly jeopardized. Bombardment Stopped. A dispatch to the New York World from Buenos Ayres, via Galveston, dated Sep- tember %, says: The bombardment of Rio de Janeiro,which began Saturday and on resulted in the killing of a number of Ee was renewed by Admiral Mello | yesterday. He trained his guns on the city and there were a number of casualties. Soon after the bombardment began the for- | eign warships in the harbor hoisted signals | signifying their desire that the firing should | cease. The signals were recognized by Admiral Mello, and the latest news is that the firing upon the city has been suspended pending negotiations. Progress of the Insurgents.

Am Application for a Writ of Habeas Corpus Heard. At 11 o'clock this morning the application of John Shea of South Washington, now serving a sentence in the work house upon @ second conviction under the act of March 3, 1898, of selling liquor without @ license, for a writ of habeas corpus, was heard be- fore Judge Cole in chambers—Messrs. O'Neill and Smith appearing on behalf Shea, the District being represented by the attorney for the District, Mr. 8. T. Thomas, and his assistant, Mr. A’ B. Duvall. Mr. Cook addressed himself to the first ground in the petition relative to the al- leged want of authority in the appointment ‘of Justice of the Peace Mills in the absence of Judge Miller. He contended, among other things, that justices of the peace ‘were not “learned in the law,” as contem- plated by the act referring to the appoint- ment of such as acting Police Court judges, He also claimed that there was absolutely no authority for such acting judges of the Police Court, as the former authority te appoint such was repealed by implication when the Police Court was made to consist of two judges. Judge Cole—This case then turns upon the question whether or not Judge Mills was a de facto judge? Mr. Thomas—That is the position of the @efendant, your honor, but we contend that such’a question cannot be raised by writ of habeas corpus. It can only be done by quo warranto. —— Banks to Resume.

Consul General Mason at Frankfort-on- the-Main has supplemented his recent re- port to the State Department about the fal- ling off of the German bop crop by ad- ditional information giving fuller and more authentic figures. ‘This year’s crop, he says, will be about 22,500,000 metric pounds against 48,200,000 pounds last year. The crop is one of the best in quality gathered in recent years, but in respect to quantity the yield in the German provinces is more disappoint- ing than was expected at the opening of the harvest. Even in the famous Spalter-Land of Bavaria, where the finest hops in the world are grown, the yield will not be a quarter crop. Mr. Mason says the fact must be accepted that the hop crop for 18%8 will be far the smallest gathered for many years. Germany will be obliged to import largely to meet her own demands and al- ready the markets of Bohemia are crowded with German buyers. This condition added to the pending increase in the revenue tax on bear manufacture makes the outlook for the German brewing industry very discour- aging. a An Agricultural Appointmens. Mr. A. C.
