Ex-Senator Mandefbin yesterday tele- graphed Controller ofsttie Treasury Bowler that he had forwardeina motion‘to refer the whole question .of:the payment of. the. sugar bounty appropaiation to the Secre- tary of the Treasury, wn account of the’ pé- cullar language ef the.dppropriation,which, | 7; he claims, takes thesmatter out of the hands of the régilar-morounting officers of" the government... Thélanguage upon which the motion is based is és follow: “The bounty Heretnvauthorized to ‘be ‘pata’ shall >be: -paid..upon tpresentation. of such proof of manufacture ‘and production as shall be required in each case’by the com+ missioner of internal/re¥enue, with the ap-| proval of the Secrefary of the Treasury, and undet such regulaticns as, shall be pre- scribed by the commissioner of internal revenue, with the approval of the Secre- tary of the Treasury. And for the pay- ment of such sugar Wounty the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to draw war- rants on the treasurer of the United States for such sums as shall be necessary, which sums shall be certified to him by the com- missioner. of internal revenue, by whom the bounty shell be disbursed, and no bounty shall be allowed or paid to any person as aforesaid upon ny quantity of sugar less than 500 pounds.” If Mr. Manderson’s motion prevails it will take the question of the bounty pay- ment entirely out of Mr. Bowler’s hands. While the language of the act seems to give color for the claim, that the Secretary of the Treasury should issue warrants di- rectly on the certificates of the commis- sioner of internal revenue, it is pointed out that the language of this appropriation is identical with that of the original McKin- ley bounty, which language was not treated either by the last or the present admin- istration,.sg. taking those disbursements out of the hards of the regular accounting officers of the, government.

The Reason Why a California Post- master Lost His Head. The editerial that caused the removal of Postmaster Walter C. Lyons at Selma, Cal., as might be suspected, was on the subject of silver coinage. A ccpy of the Irrigator, Mr. Lyon’s paper, containing the article was, sent to Postmaster General Wilson, who wrote to Senator White suggesting that if, in his judgment, the editorial justi- fied it he should name a successor to Lyons. The Senator named W. 8. Staley. The editorial was as follows: “Western people at least demand the restoration of silver and paper money and will be content with nothing else. They feel that the President has sacrificed their interests to those of eastern capitalists and hate him cordially. The situation as regards the President is somewhat similar to that of Benedict Ar- nold after he deserted the colonial for the royalist eause.. He. is said to have asked a colonial prisoner ore day what they would do"'to him éf.they caught him. ‘Cut off the leg that was wounded at Saratoga &nd bury it’ with the honors of war,’ was the answer. ‘The rest of you they would hang.’ The principles advocated by the President during his first administration ought to be indorsed and blazoned upon thé party banner, but western democrats will brand those of the second administration as traitorous to his constituents and meet them and their advocates as political op- penents.”” 34: ——_—_—_+2<____. INCREASED POSTAL BUSINESS. ese Postmaster General Wilson says the re- ceipts of the largest post offices of the country for the mopth of July past were about 17 per cent feayier than for July, 1894. He considers a good indfcaticn of the returning prosperity of the country. The a at sine of and their increases are as follows: New .York., -3536,800—Increase, $63,500 Chicago . + 382,300— "1" "65,500 Philadelphia 5,00 — 21,000 Boston . 500 900 Brooklyn 14,500 Baltimore 200 Buffalo”. 8,300 Rochester . 1,300 Providence . a 3,800 Newark .. 25,21 sf 2,800 Washington 87,800—ecrease, "208 Washington is tke only office showing a decrease, and this is due to the adfourn- ment of Congress, which wag in session during July last year. Troops. for Fort Hall. General Coppinger has informed the War Department that he has ordered two com- panies of the eighth infantry to go into camp at the Fort Hall Indian reservation. This action is taken in resyonse to repre- sentations by the Interlor D§partment that the Indians have been very restive since their return to their reservation after the Jaekson’s Hole affair, and have been repre- sented as disposed to make trouble unless steps were immediately taken to punish the white-men wio killed some of their number. ge Testing Machine Guns. A series of tests of machine guns was begun at the Indian Head proving grounds yesterday. They are expected to fire about 600 rounds per minute of the rifle‘ammunition of .236 of an inch caliber, now in use-in the navy. The Browning automatic, a new single barrel machine gun, whose charge fs fired by the press of the powder in the barrel, was the only one tested today. There was some defect in the emmunition furnished, however, and the test was not completed. So far as it proceeded, the gun gave entire satisfaction. The defective ammunition was condemned and a new lot will be ordered. As soon as {t is received the tests will be resumed. — To Torpedo Boats Too Slow. The Navy Department doeg not know what to do with the torpedo boats built for the battleships Texas and Maine. These boats have failed to make the time required, for torpedo service, and those de- signed for the Texas will not be used, and it 1s probable that those made for the Maine will not go out with that ship. These boats cannot make more than eleven or twelve knots an hour, and, in the opinion of naval experts, that speed will render them useless in battle. One of the tor- pedo boats of the Texas will be on exhibi- tion at the Atlanta exposition. It ts quite probable that in the future all of these torpedo boats will be used at the Annapo- ls Naval Academy by the cadets. 2 +____ The Port Royal Dock. Unofficial information received at the Navy Department indicates that the Port Royal dry dock is not-yet all that it should be, and possibly, if-aniattempt were made to dock a big ship ltke the Indiana or other first-class battleship, there mtght be a great deal of trouble. The weak point of the dock is at the entrance, and whether it is due to the soft condition of the soil which surrounds the éhtrance or because there is some defect inthe building of the dock will‘not be made'plain until the offi- cial report of the board. which was present at the trial is made. + o+—____ To Investigate the (Columbia Affair.
