Ily this of course I do not moan that nny ofilccr should look upon himself as having tho right or authority to make arrests or interfere with citizens or their rights, without good and sulllcieut reason. I shall oxpect that, as my assistants, on will at all times carefully and impar tially, but fearlessly, discharge your duties to tho host interests of our people "I shall right here serve notice upon each and all of you that I will not permit any officer to continue to uso bis office, or tho privilege and tho power that his appointment gives him, solely for tho purpose of money making, or imposing upon the liberties and rights of our people, no matter who they may bo; the position of special police officer was certainly novor created by law for any such purpose. I shall bo careful whenever a well-founded complaint is made to me of the misconduct of any of you, whether in the discharge of your duties, or as private citi zens, to in.mcdiatoly strip such officer of his star."

J Without wishing to air grievances before tho public and having no icsiro to continue tho controversy, nevertheless we feel it just to oursslves nnd tho patrons of the company to contradict certain misstatements made by the trustees of tho Columbia Hose & S. K. K. Co., in last evening's Herald. They say we refused to sliaro tbo last collections made by the Resc.uo Company. This statement is partially true. At the close of last season, when tbo sprinklers of both companies wero out of service, certain business men and others on Main street requested the Columbias to continuosprinkling that thoroughfare, and upon a refusal on their part similar applica tion was mado to our company. We, in line with our past record to always accommodate the public in every way in our power, ac cepted tho proposition, continued to sprinkle that street, and retained the receipts, no part of which wero tho Columbias entitled. What is moro, their sprinkler was not lit for ser vice This Is a true statement and our course will bo approved by tho public, to whom we loavo the subject. Our collector will make his rounds the latter part of this week, and we shall appreciate any favors shown by the public, and thanking for tliu liberal support of tbo past, we remain, liospcctfully, MoKOANSTETLKtt, Chaui.ks Hoffman, Samuel Qiliikkt, A.

Pittsburg, April 8. Seventeen of the 28 puddling furnaces at A. M. Dyers & Co.'s rolling mill, which have been closed down by a strike of the puddiers against a reduction of GO cents per ton In the puddling rate, were started yes terday with non-union men. A large crowd of strikers collected about the mills, but beyond Jeering the new workmen when they entered there was no attempt at force. Later In the day the rush for places became bo great that the strikers were frightened, and declared the strike off at both the Dy ers and Oliver mills. The old men were taken back, and work was resumed In full today at the reduction. President Garland, of the Amalgamated Associa tion, says that Dyers & Co. violated their contract, and the men can Insti tute suits against the firm for damages.

What is tho matter with being covered with one of the Famous $B.00 latest spring suits? Washington, April 8. A number of western Republican senators, more par ticularly those from the Itocky moun tain states, have united In a movement to make sure of securing certain con cessions In the tariff bill which they consider Important to that section of the country. There have been several Informal conferences recently, but up; to date no conclusions have been reached. The articles which the senators have (specially In view are wool, hides, coal nnd lead ore. The tendency Is to ask a charge In the portion of the wool schedule which relates to third class wools. The probabilities are that there will be a demand for specific instead of ad valorem rates in this class, and one senator said today that he would not be satisfied with less than 60 cents a pound on any wool. There Is quite a determined move ment among these senators for a duty on hides. The llnance committee, west ern tenators say, did not manifest at first a disposition to grant this conces sion, but the western men say they now And reason to feel encouraged over the outlook. They probably will ask that the duty be fixed at two cents per pound, but some of them appear will ing to compromise at one and a half or even one cent. There will be a determined effort to Increase the rate ah the lead contained In ore from one cent a pound, as fixed by the Dlngleyblllas It passed the house, tooneand a half cents, and to change the language of the provision. This would mean a return to the McKInley rate, but the language of the Wilson law is considered preferable to that of either the McKInley law or the Dingley bill. There will be an effort also to pre vent any reduction of the house rates on coal and lumber. The Wyoming and Colorado senators are especially Inter ested in coal, and the Oregon and Washington senators In lumber. There are also many smaller Items to which the western senators are giving their attention. Some of them are Inclined to fear that the bill may be made to discriminate 'against western Inter- I eats, nnd desire to organize to prevent that result. Senator Chandler today authorized the statement that the passage of the tariff might he endangered It the pres sure for high duties continues. "The Republicans have not a majority with out assistance from other parties, and the danger Is that there will be such a general revulsion of feeling ns will cause the outsiders upon whom we are counting to not cast their votes for the bill. So, at least, the matter pre sents Itself to my mind. The Republi can members of the finance committee are disposed to be conservative, but the pressure is so strong that they may be forced to yield. The people who are creating the pressure are thus pre paring to pull down upon their own heads the tatfnple that shelters them."

C, Apillv8-The supreme court of the state yesterday rendered decision which atllrms that no man may keep liquof In his house or place of business for a lawful purpose, such as personal use, unless the vessel in which It Is kept has a certificate on It from the state liquor commission. The case came up on an appeal from Oconee county, where liquor was seized by constables from the residence of a citi zen who kept It only for personal use. Chief Justice Melver and Justice Gary agreed that it was not a criminal of fense to keep such liquor without the certificate of the liquor commissioner. Justices Jones and Pope declared that it was criminal, and when the oourt is divided the decision of the lower court Is affirmed, which found the citizen guilty and sentenced him to three months in the chain gang.
