It 1s thought the strike wili not Last & week. The plasterers all qult work this morning because «f a refusal of maasters to pay an advance of 50 cents per day. O1NcINNATI, May 1. —There will be no disturbance here among the cigar- makers on sccount of the reduction of the tax. They struck sometime ago for an addition to wages and succeeded, and so did the cigar packers. Strikes for an advance have been made at New- | P! ark, Ohlo, and at Portamouth, Ohlo. Damands of workmen at Wheeling, West_Virgints, Steubenville, Ohio, and Urbana, Ohlo, have been complied with, Prrrssurc, Pa.,, May 1.—Reports from the railroad coal miaes this even. lug state that the strike sgainst the recuctlon ¢f half a cent per bushel in price of mining has extended to all mines save one or two.

WASHINGTON, y 1.—The Bliss argument In the star route trial this morning tarned upon the petitions connected with the vartous routes, and Miner was made the objact of a particalarly bitter attack. He showed that two routes had been incresssd and expedited at a great expense by Brady solely upon the recommenda tlon of Dillon and Billlogs, railroad prosidents, yet Brady had pretended he was fighting the rallrond interosts in the star routes, Dorsey had pro- cared raiiroad passes from those gon- tlemen for his agents, and it was a clear casa of ‘‘Scratch my bick and Tl tickle your elbow,” Bliss took up the evidence relating to routes and rapidly reviewed it, paasing over the minor poluts with vigor, and bringlog oat in strong con- what he described s the more ant offerces of an order for an {ncrease on the Alamo- ton route He sald it had remalned urrevoked untll congresslonal investigation caused o cleaning up In the dirty house of the samo assletant postmaster general.

When the cour: ad- journed Bliss had not concluded hls address, GREEN B. RAUM WILL PRACTICE LAW IN WASHINGTON, AND MAKE TWICE AS MUCH MO! gton Special to the C wmer:ial Ga- I'ne resignation of Green B Raom was a complete surprise to everyone. Not even hls most Intimate frlends or office asscciates had the falntest hint that such acourse had been deter- wmined wpon by the Commissloner. When General Raom returned to the treasury department, after his interview with the president, and an- nounce * to his subordlnates what he had just done, there was exhiblted by all, first lnoredullty and then actual grief. In r.pli to those who Inquired re- garding the cmuses which led to his reslgnation, Commissioner Riom sald that the resposibility of the offise had grown too heavy for » man of hia sge, and the salary too small. He expeot- od to remain in this elty and practice law before the supreme and other ocoorts and the departments, This Is true, but it does not give the inside of the matter. It has lorg been a source of surprise to those in Washington, who are used to seelng fmportant nterests ably repressnted, that the whisky dealers should {ntrust thelr business to men of such limited taot that almost every legislative project undertaken for the past two or three years has failed. Weroa law- yer and au expert. ltke Goreral Raum en.aged as counsel or representative for these eopls, thers wounld be but little Itkelihood of & fallore on any reasonable plan for their benefit. While it is not known that definite arrangements have been made with Goneral Raum, 1t is underatood that he has long been conefdered as a desirable acqusition, and it would not be surprising to see him aoting for them. The salary, mentioned when this matter was dls- cussed lsst wiater, as sultable for a rapresentative like General Raum, was $25,000 per annum, The ultimate business relations which General Rium has had with all banks not natlonal gives him an acquaintance that will be of tho best benefit hetealter. There are now pend- fog unsettled and disputed bank acoounts with the govarnment for unpald taxes, which he can bring to a satisfactory eet:lement if inirusted with thelr management, He is also to act as couusel for Wm. Pitt Kellogg, lately Indlcted. Bu! he has only consented to this upon the most earnest sollcitation. The two hundred thousand tobaoco. rebate claims which will be shortly flied, also suggest a possible field for one well acquainted with department routine. This olass of clajms, while covering but small amounts and needing no legal preparation or argament, yet re- quire looking after and ocollection. Altogether there are so many bright Llities outeide of the go\ernment employ for Mr. Raum’s acknowledged talents that his resignation at this time {s the most natural thing in the world, CAPITOL NOTES. 8pocial Dispatckes to TaE Bax.

Nev- ertholess it would recommend that for this name be substituted another, per- hups, *““Refuse, Al,” which would render a misunderstanding of that kind impossible. Any term that does not contaln the word ‘‘lard” would suit the purpose. In order to secure a repeal of the prohibition it is of the groatest importance that your govern- ment should take the trouble of mak- ing the necessary iavestigations which would establieh the following facts: 1 That no dieased hogs or dead hogs are used for the export trade. 2. That the examination of goods when shipped ls a strict one, s much so that only fally cured and wholesome ment can pass it. Sach {nveetigations can only have a beneficlal {ofluence on the whole trade In American products In general. At the samo time they certalnly will prove the best means f removing ex- isting projudice and eecurlng & repeal of the prohibition lately lssued, BeruN.
