Senator Chandler, from the Senate com- mittee on the census, has reported a bill to establish at the national capital a census office for the taking of the twelfth and subsequent cersuses. The bill as reported contains a modification of its provisions as introduced, which is explained by the re- “A majority of the committee are of opinion that the employes in the census oMice should be appointed according to the direction of the director of the census, and not in the method provided by the civil service law and the existing rules made in pursuance thereof.” The bill originally provided that the ap- ointments of employes should be under the restrictions of the civil service law. The bill provides as follows “There shall be at the seat of government @ census office, the duties of which shall be the taking of the twelfth and succeeding censuses and the collection of other in- formation, as hereinafter provided. The census office shall be under the charge of a director of the census, who shall be ap- pointed, as soon as ptacticable after the passage of this act, by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, and who shall receive a salary of $5,000 per annum; and there shall be also an assistant director of the census, to be appointed in like manner, who shall be an experienced statistician and shall receive an annual salary of $4,000; and there shall also be in the census office, to be appointed by the director thereof, a chief clerk at an annual salary of $2,500, five chief statis- Ucians at an annual salary of $3,000 each, one stenographer at-an annual salary of $2,000, and as a temporary office force, until the force of the census office shall be classi- fied and provided for thtdugh regular ap- propriations, such number of employes, not to exceed thirty-two in all, as the director of the census may find necessary for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this act, such employes to consist of clerks of classes four, three, two and one, and at $1,000 per annum, ‘watchmen, assistant watchmen, messengers, assistant messen- gers, laborers, skilled laborers_and char- women. “The chief statisticians herein provided for shall be persons of known and tried ex- perience in statistical work. One of the clerks of class four shall be designated as disbursing clerk and shall give bond. * * * The chief clerk, disbursing clerk and the chief statisticians provided for in the pre- ceding section, and all other employes au- thorized by this act below the assistant di- rector of the census, shall be appointed ac- cording to the discretion of the director of the census, and not otherwise. t shall be the duty of the director of the census to submit to the Secretary of the Treasury, on or before October 1, 1897, estimates for such classified force as he may deem necessary to carry out the pro- visions of this act. That during the neces- sary absence of the director of the census, or whea the office of the director shall be- come vacant, the assistant director shall perform the duties of the. direc‘or.” The scope of the next census is outlined as follows: “That the twelfth census shall be re- stricted to such specific topics and fea- tures as may be authorized by Congress, and to this end the director of the census hall proceed at once to wake all necessary preparations for the next decennial enut> eration, and shall submit to the Congre in December, 1897, a report, with recom- mendations, relating to such’ topics of fea- tures as he may deem adequate for the purpose intended by this act; and in his report he shall make such further sugges- tions and recommendations relating to the details necessary for taking the twelfth and subsequent censuses and for the con- tinuous work of a permanent census office as he may deem proper.” Other sections of the printing, binding, traveling expenses, rent, ete., and 0 is appropriated to’ carry out the provisions of the bill. a FEARS VIOLENCE. bill provide for Young Man Who Assnalted Miss Tay- lor at Williamsport, Ma. Jack Lemen of Williamsport, Md., who is charged with attempted assault, and afterward cuttirg the throat of Mizs Lizzic Taylor, was given a hearing yesterday be- fore Justice J. Q. Miller. State's Attorney Charles D. Wagamen demanded a renewal of Lemen’s bail, $2,000. The grand jury, which was selected yesterday, will invesu- gate the case as soon as Miss Taylor is able to appear. Her cendition remains critical. Lemen is corfined to his father’s house, fearing to venture on the street for dread the mob. Alexander Armstrong, a Hagerstown lawyer, has been retained a. Lemen's counsel. It is said Lemen, who 1s a wealthy young sport, offered’ Miss Yaylor $15,000 if ane would not appear at the trial. The girl’s father retorted that all the money in the country would not prevent his daughter from defending her honor. Lemen’s father has assured Miss Taylor's tather that the law would take its course, so far as he was concerned. Sg ge CARRY DISEASE GERMS. MAY The Unfumigated Chinese Embassy an Object of Suspicion. ‘The secretary of the state board of health at Albany, N. Y., has received a telegram from Dr. A! T. Watt, superintendent of the provincial board of health of Victoria, B. which reads as follows: “Would advise that you keep under ob- servation while passing through your ter- ritory the members of the Chinese embassy, who were on board of the Empress of Chi- na, lately in quarantine at Williamshead. They left Vancouver Wednesday afternoon, going to New York via Montreal.” The secretary of the state board has re- peated the message to the board of health in New York city, where ‘the party will eventually land. The secretary is of the opinion that no one of the embassy Is afflicted with a con- tagious disease. In view of the fact, how- ever, that there was a disease on the steamer whieh brought the party to this country, it is deemed advisable to keep them under observation. ge Col. Hay Meets Bimetallistn. A luncheon was given at the St. James Club, London, yesterday in honor of the United States ambassador, Col. John Hay, in order to enable him to meet the leading English bimetallists. ‘The Hon.

Sir Spencer Walpole of the English delegation protested against any change in existing rates. His opposition was due to the English ownership of so many vessels which carry mails. The Belgian represen- tatives offered a compromise, providing for a reduction from ten to five per cent on a sliding scale for three years, and this Was accepted by the subcommittee and will be favorably renorted..to the general com- mittee today. The full committee will then Tecommend its adoption to the .congress. The most important work of the con- gress is being done this afternoon, the committee having in charge the general convention to be entered into at the pres- ent congress by all the countries which are members of the Universal Postal Union being engaged in the consideration of the various propositions to amend the exist- ing treaty. The congress may be con- vened tomorrow to consider redorts from the committees thus far agreed upon. The postmasters general of Norway and the South African republic have negotiated a treaty between those countries, includ ing reciprocal arrangements in money or- ders and registered mail. It was decided at a meeting of the com- mittee on arrangements, held at the Post Office Department this morning, to take the delegates to the congress on a trip to Mount Vernon later in the week. The pro- posed visit to Richmond and contiguous points of interest will not be made, ag the expenses were found to be entirely too great. Invitations have been received from Chicago, St. Louis, Indianapolis and other cities for the delegates to be their guests, and a tripincluding the cities which have indicated a desire to entertain the dis- tinguished foreigners will be shortly ar- ranged. The reception to be given at the old Cor- coran Gallery tonight by Postmaster Gen- eral Gary in honor of the delegates and the ladies accompanying them will be a notable affair. The invitations name the hours to be from 8 to 10. ee Hotel Arrivals. Raleigh—W. L. Pierce and E. A. Law- rerce, Pittsburg, Pa.; *. W. Walker, Bea- ver Falls, Pa.; M, Friendman, Boston, Mass.; C. C.

For any one going abroad this summer the fine maps which Miss Richards shows of Paris and London will prove invaluable, and will aid them much in their enjoyment of the many famous and interesting buildings in both these his- toric cities. 3 — George Paid for His Sport.
