COrTKIGHT, 1391, BTTHK XITC DTOET ASSOCIATX
mess.
London, March 27. Lord Salisbury,
just before starting for San Kemo, held a
long conference with Lord Kunts:ord and
Mr. Curne, the permanent Secretary of the
Foreign Office. A work ot supreme diffi
culty, requiring the most delicate handling,
rai confided to Mr. Currie, relating to en
gagements ot England to protect Belgium.
King Leopold, during his recent visit,
pressed lor an answer as to what practical
co-operation England would giTe under the
existing treaty lor the defense of Belgian
neutrality in the event of war. Lord Salis
bury, according to a report credited in the
Foieign Office, promised English aid by a
fleet and contingent troop!), it demanded, to
defend Antwerp, leaving the Belgian army
iree for defensive operations in the forts of
the Meuse.
Something occurring behind the scenes of
European diplomacy sharpens apprehension
that the final move in the long game pre
luding war will not be long delayed. Apart
!rom the renewal of the concentration of
troops on the Ituisian-Austrian frontiers,
and the Czar's demonstrative friendship for
President Carnot, it is reported that an
agreement has been reached between the
French and Kussian Governments in regard
to the simultaneous mobilization of troops
and other movements in the event of war.
Trouble looked for in the Tall.
The heads of the European powers seem to
be informed of a Russian scheme of attack,
which is likely to declare itself in the
autumn. The question of Belgian neutral
ity is intimately associated with England's
attitude in such a conflict, aid it will be
Lord Salisbury's justification if the agree
ment with King Leopold conies up in Par
liament. The presence of Lord ICnutslord at the
conference with Lord Salisbury was proba
bly due to the relations ot -New oundland
with other disputes with France. Questions
ol which notice has already been given in
the House ot Commons to be answered after
the Easter recess demand that the Govern
ment explain whether or not the fisheries
trouble has become a mere pawn on the
diplomatic chessboard on which the English
occupation of Egypt is king. Lord Kuuts
ford damaged his reputation among Con
servatives through his tactless treatment of
the Newfoundland matter. He required
coaching by Lord Salisbury, who is blamed
within his own circle for allowing the Colo
nial Minister too free a band. f
The Wesleyan agitation over biblical in
spiration is extending to other churches.
Leading theologians keenly discuss l'rof.
Davison's criticism of the tenet ol verbal in
spiration. Mr. Spurgeon and several Bap
tist ministers, while refraining from detailed
attacks upon the new movement, constantly
refer to the "fomenters ot doubt," and pray
that God will supply believing, earnest
men.
Opposition to Dilke's Candidature.
Over 2,000 dissenting ministers have
signed the protestagainst Sir Charles Dilke's
return to public life. Sir Charles persists
that be will stand as a candidate lor Parlia
ment until be receives the official veto of the
Liberal chiefs. He had invited the opinion
of Mr. Morley and Sir "William Harcourt
on his candidature without response. Mr.
Schuadhorst, the Liberal caucus chief, dis
approves the candidature on the ground that
if the Forest of Dean electors rctnrn Sir
Charles Dilke many thousands of dissenters
will withhold their voles from the Liberals
at the coming election.
Walter Besant, William Blackand others
are discussing the ionization of a Society of

IBT PUXLAT'S CABLE COMTAKT.
Pabis, March 27. The assertion made
by the London Times that the Due
d'Orleans is in Tiflio, caused telegraphic
inquiry to be made, with the result that as
surances are given that nothing has been
seen of bim there. Mme. Melba, the opera
singer, in company with whom the Prince
is reported to have visited Vienna, on being
interviewed, declined to make any state
ment, beyond admitting that she had met
him at the Anstrian capital. Mme. Melba
added that it was not her business to keep a
record or the Prince's movements.
The Duke d' Lnynes, the intimate friend
of the Due d'Orleans, who was also re

similar silence, although it is reported that

MAFIA IN THE TTBOIj.
An Appointed Assassin Murders Mer
chant by Mistake.
Viekka, March 27. A dispatch from
Kufstein, a fortified town of the Tyrol, on
the Bavarian froutier, brings news of a
murder by a Mafia conspirator. From the
few details received from the scene of the
tragedy, it appears that a well-known mer
chant of Kufstein, who was upon the point
of entering a railroad car at that place,
was suddenly confronted by an Italian, who
plunged a stiletto in the merchant's breast,
killing him almost instantly.
The Italian, who turns out to be a work
man employed in the neighborhood, was
promptly arrested, and from the investi
gation subsequently made by the police
authorities, it seems that the Italian was a
member ot the Mafia Society, and that be
had killed the merchant in mistake lor a
compatriot whom he had been detailed to
kill for some real or fancied wrong done to
the Mafia Society, and for which the
prisoner's compatriot had been condemned to
death by one of the Mafia's secret tribunals.
The murder of the merchant of Kufsteid has
created considerable excitement, and there
is a feeling of dangerous ludignation grow
ing against the Italian secret society.

THS-
SHE DBES8ED IN COUET,
But the Judge Will Have to Ask Hit Wife
to Decide the Case.
Newark, March 27. Mme. Chevalier
made 20 costly dresses for Mr. Edward B.
Aymer, of East Orange, N. J., last year,
which that lady was to wear at Newport
daring the summer season. On ber return
Mrs. Aymer ordered two dresses from Mme.
Chevalier, one of wnich she was to wear at
the matrimonial reception of her sister in
Philadelphia. The dresses, however, were
made from former measurements, which, it
was found, were not perfect. In court yes
terday the Judge decided that the lady
should try on the dresses, and she retired to
a private room, donned one of the costumes,
and appeared in court. Judge Henry, after
a critical examination of the costume and
of the attitude for fittiug Mrs. Aymer's fig
ure, declared that be would have to bring in
his wife to decide the merits of the suit. De
cision was reserved. Two hundred dollars
is involved in the case.
The defendant in the suit brought by
Mrs. Chevalier is reputed to be the wife of
the wealthiest man in East Orange. Mis.
Ayiner is recognized as a leader in society.
She drove to the court in a handsome
landau drawn by a pair of gray horsrs and
driven by a liveried coachman. Beside her
husband the plaintiff was accompanied by
her infant's nurse, an expert dressmaker.
The court room was crowded with society
peoole from East Orange. Mrs. Aymer
contended that the dresses did not fit her,
and that under the arrangement 'that she
had made with the dressmaker she was not
supposed to pay for them.
EECOGMZED AS DE FACTO GOVERNOR
The Executive of Rhode Island Honors a
Requisition From llulkeley.
Providence, March 27. Governor
Bulkeley, of Connecticut, wants the body of
Thomas Garnett. Under the seal of bis
State, and in accordance with all the official
forms of extradition, he has made an official
demand upon the Governor of lthode Island
for the surrender of Garnett. Garnett has
been in the Bhode Island State prison for
three years, and he prefers to stay there
rather than to go to Connecticut The
requisition arrived this forenoon, and at
occe cave rise to the question, "Would His
Excellency recognize Bulkeley as Gov
ernor?"
To a reporter Governor Davis said: "It
seems to me I have but one clear course.
This document bears the seal of the State of
Connecticut. I am aware that all over the
country, and especially in Connecticut, the
opinion prevails that Mr. Bulkeley is not
the lawlul Governor, but who is to decide?
My personal opinion is that Morris is the
lawlul Governor, and if his signature, with
the official seals, were attached to these
papers, I should not hesitate to surrender
Garnett. As Bulkeley is in possession of
the seals, Bulkeley is Governor de facto,
and I do not feel that I can properly decline
to recoguize him as the Executive. So I
have made up my mind to recognize the
validity of the papers. lam now sending
the requisition papers to the Attorney Gen
eral to see if thej are all right."

Howard Crosby's condition to-day until
evening. His temperature stood at 101 the
greater part of the day, an indication which
showed that the high fever ef the night before
was sensibly reduced. His mind was clear
also,but he suffered intense physical anguish
and caught but 10 and 15 minute

peared his fever rose. The most unfavorable
symptom was his difficulty of expectoration.
It will be remembered that General Sher

DELAT IN ACTION ON THE SHIP CANAL
rrnosr A staff conaEsrosDEST.
Habbisbuho, March 27. The sub-committee
of the joint committee appointed to
investigate whether a school-book trust had
been formed has its report ready, and it will
be presented to the Legislature when it re
assembles. The committee first finds that the Ameri
can Book Company, of Cincinnati, which
was formed by the consolidation of D. Ap
pleton & Co., Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co.,
A. S. Barnes & Co., Ivison, Blakeman &
Co. and Harper Bros., the first and last only
so far as their school publications were con
cerned, is not a trust, but a corporation.
There are 181 other booK publishing firms
in Ihe country, none of which have any con
nection with this corporation. The evi
dence adduced by the committee shows that
since its lonoutiou it hasieduced the price
Ol its books to dealers.
Au Aicument Against Uniformity.
The individual publishers and firms also
hold that the American Book Company is
not a trust, and that they are able to protect
themselves against it, provided the State
does not interfere by requiring State or
county uniformity in text books. With,
State uniformity the American Book Com
pany would be given a great advantage, ow
ing to the great number of school publica
tions winch they control, and with county
uuuuruiky mis lact anu uieir great cajmui
would hurt the smaller publishers.
As a lesult of their investigation, the
committee reports against uniformity of
textbooks and in favor of local school dis
tricts purchasing all books out of the State
appropriation aud furnishing them tree to
the pupils. Under the present laws this is
permissive, but they recommend that it be
made mandatory on the school boards. To
carry their recommendations into effect they
urge the passage of Mr. Ellwood's bill,
which contains the mandatory provision,
but allows five years for the gradual adop
tion of the svstcm. thus avoiding bearing
too heavily upon the poorer districts. This
latter provision is incorporated at the re
quest of State Superintendent Waller.
As showing the practicability of the sys
tem proposed, it is set forth that under it the
schools in Philadelphia .ire provided with
books at an annual cost of 67 cents per pupil,
and in Lancaster at 45 cents, while two
thirds of the districts in Montgomery county
have adopted it without auy increase in
taxation.
A Conference With iho Governor.
A'deputation from the Republican Steer
ing Committee has bad a consultation with
Governor Pattison relative to the delayed
commissions of State Superintendent of In
struction Waller, State Librarian Egle and
Factory Inspector Martin. While they de
cline to state definitely what passed between
them and Mr. Pattison, it is generally
understood thut he gave them due assurance
that the commissions would be made out and
delivered.
Senator McCerary, of Erie, is of opin
ion that nothing more can be done in the
ship canal business until Congress meets in
December. The report of the commission
was not filed until February 20, and the
joint resolution of the Legislature ri quest
ing Congress to authorize the Secretary of
War to detail two United Mates engineers
to go over the report and maps and examine
into the results of the commission's labors
got to Washington only a few days before
adjournment and was uot acted upon, Sec
retary Proctor would willingly detail the,
officers had he the proper authority, whioh
can now only be granted when Cougress
meets.
The delay in presenting the report does
not rest with the commission, but is rather
chargeable to the delay in appointing it.
The resolution creating it was passed early
in the session of 1889, but the commission
was not ready for organization uutil Sep
tember of that year. There is still about
51,500 of the appropriation left, and an
other resolution has passed the Legislaturo
authorizing the commission to go ahead and
penect its work, but not to incur expenses
beyond this sum. Hen by Hall.
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
MAY BE TUBNED LOOSE IF THE FLOOD
BEIDGE BILL PASSES.
The Governor, However, Is Likely to In
terpose a Veto Should It Go Through
A Precedent for His Probable Action
Recalled Governor Hoyt's Veto.
ISrXCIAL TELEQEAU TO THE PI8PATCH.1
HAlilUSBUEG, March 27. As many
counties in the State had their bridges either
destroyed or damaged by the flood of 1869,
tbe bill having the payment of their re
erection or reconstruction in contemplation
is very popular with many members of the
House, who think their support of it will
give them a big boost with their constitu
ents. As the probable cost of the proposed
legislation to reimburse counties for money
expended in building or constructing
bridges is inquired into, the larger appear
the figures. Under its operation, claims for
State support would come from nearly every
section, and if a precedent were established
it might involve, the State in the loss of
millions of dollars.
But the act which is being whirled
through the Legislature is liable to en
counter a veto if the Legislature is unwise
enough to allow it to reach the Governor.
The bill is on all fours with the one Gov
ernor Hoyt vetoed in 1881, proposing an ap
propriation of J1U,UUU to assist the Milton
school district in tbe re-erection of build
ings destroyed by the great fire the pre
vious year. In disapproving this bill,
Governor Hoyt employed the language oi
the Constitution, which says that "no ap
propriations, except for pensions or gratui
ties lor military services, slmll be made for
charitable, educational or benevolent pur
poses to any person or community."
This provision tbe then Governor of the
State thought conclusive as to the lack of
authority to enact such legislation, and in
his message ot disapproval he stated that
the debates in the Constitutional Conven
tion showed that "the intention of the pro
vision was to cut oil, without remedy, just
such appropriations as this." It was alto
maintained by him that "an appropriation
to a school district is au appropriation to a
community, as the bounds of the district are
coterminous with the borough or township,
and every citizen is a beneficiary."
HUGHES HUST GO BACK

rSFECIAt. TELEORAM TO THE PISFATCR.1
Haebisbtjeg, March 27. Governor Pat

of James Hughes, tbe head of the national
organization of clotbing cutters of North
America, who is charged with extortion and
conspiracy in connection with the boycott
plaoed on L. Adeler, a clotbing manufact
urer of Bochester. On learning of the con
clusion to which Goypruor Pattison came

tbe Governor lo reconsider liU determina
tion. The Governor claimed that'under the
act of 1678 he had no alternative but to
comply with the demand ot an Executive,
of another State if the requisition was in
proper form.
The Governor was told that ihe statute
was unconstitutional, and thnt under the
Federal Constitution an Executive was
bound to respect the requisition of another
Executive only in the event of a person
charged with crime having fled from justice.
This thev claimed that Hughes had not
done;
7ATTIS0N WON'T OBJECT
To the Return of the Bills Recalled by the
Legislature.
rSFECTAI. TELEOBAX TO THE DI8FATCH.1
Habrisbubq, March 27. The passage
by the Legislature of a concurrent resolu
tion recalling several bills that had been
messaged to the Governor can only accom
plish its object by his permission. He is
not averse to returning them, but if he
were to exercise the power conferred on him
by the Constitution he .could disapprove
the resolution, which, under the Con
stitution, must either be signed or
vetoed by him. The power given to him
in this connection pointedly exhibits
the folly of the Legislature in seeking
to temporarily withdraw legislation from
him because of a fear that its passage might
be imperiled. The Governor will interpose
no obstacle to the execution of the plan
adopted to get possession of the bills, but
he thinks there was no necessity fur the
cautionary measure.
Some cursosity is shown to learn what the
Legislature will do when it obtains posses
sion of tbe bills again. When bills are re
called under ordinary circumstances it is
because some defect has beeu discovered in
them which requires correction, bat this
legislation is not wanted for modification.
SUING THE CIGARETTE TBTST.
Mr.
Allen Asks a Big Commission for Or
ganizing It.
New York, March 27. Theodore E.
Allen is seeking, in the Supreme Court, to
recover $50,000 commission from the Kinney
Tobacco Company for his part in organizing
the American Tobacco Company (Cigarette
Trust) in January, 1889.
Allen claims to have proposed the trust
to Mr. Kinney, and was authorized to or
ganize it, with the understanding that be
was to receive 1 per cent of the defendant's
interest in the trust. He organized the
company in New Jersey, and the defendant
received 55,000,000 in certificates. The de
fendants deny the contract, and yesterday
obtained from Judge Barrett an order re

SHIP IS WKECEED IN A STORM.
Tha
Life Savers at Capa Henry Tnt in a
Whole Day's Hard Work.
EIGHT OP THE CHEW LOSE THEIR L1TES
New Yobk, March 27. Tbe Norwegian
bark Dictator, from Pensacola, Fla,, to
West Hartlepool, England, laden with pine
lumber, with a crew of 15 and the Captain's
young wife and little boy of 3 yeirs, came
ashore in a strong easterly gale this morning,
four miles south of Cape Henry and two
miles north of Virginia Beach Hotel. The
weather was so thick that the vessel was not
seen until 9 o'clock, aud then she wasin
the breakers, broadside on, within a quarter
of a mile ot the sbor
Full crews from tfo life-saving station,
those of Cape Henry and Seatack, under
command or Captkin Drinkwater, were
promptly on hand and began firing lines to
the ill-fated bark. Tlieguns could not de
liver the lines so far, though they were re
peatedly fired. The ship finally succeeded
in getting a line ashore tied to a barrel,
which the surl carried to tbe lite-savers.
The SailoiV Unfortunate Ignorance.
The breeches buoy was quickly rigged
and sent to the vessel, but unfortunately the
bark's crew was ignorant of its use, and the
rescue was delayed until Captain Drink
water, of the life-saving crew, wrote instruc
tions, put them into a bottle and sent it to
the Dictator by the line connecting the ves
sel with the shore.
The men on board broke the bottle at
once, as could be seen by glasses from the
shore, aud proceeded to carry out the direc
tions. The first man was delivered ashore
in eight minutes, and seven others were res
cued before suaiset, four of whom came
ashore in a life-boat, which was capsized,
but the men succeeded in reaching the shore
in a half-dead condition, one man haying
his arm broken.
During the entire day the ship rolled and
pitched terribly, which made the work of
rescuing the unhappy sailors exceedingly
difficult and slow, as the life line would
tighten or slacken in response to the motion
of the vessel.
Survivors Brought Ashore Half Dead.
Once the line broke with a man midway
to the shore, and he was hauled back to the
bark half dead. The line was mended and
the same man was salely lauded. The beach
was lined with people who had come from
the couutry houses and the hotel, and to the
spectators the anxiety and suspense was
awful, as they could plainly see the people
on the bark and hear their constant cries
for succor. At nightfall there were
still nine persons on the bark,
and among the number the captain, his
wife and little child. The captain had
urged his wife all during tbe day to take
the buoy and come ashore, but she steadily
refused, as she would not leave her husband
and child, and only one could take the buoy
at a time.
To-night the work of rescue was con
tinued, and -the captain vainly besought his
wife to make the attempt for life.
The Names of the Rescued Seamen.
Tbe bark soon went to pieces, and those
that remained on her were lost, including
the wife of the captain. Her husband, just
before the ship went to pieces, sprang into
the sea with his son strapped to his back
and reached the shore alive, but the boy was
lost, making a total loss of eight live;. Tbe
list of the saved is as follows: Captain J.
M. Jorgonson; Second Mate Julius Ander
son, Ampler Barrett, John Stevens, John
Batterson, Yelmer Olisen, John Mail, Carlo
Olsen (broken arm), Charley Joseph (col
ored.) The Dictator was trying to make Hamp
ton Bonds, having been disabled by hurri
canes since the 12th inst. The sea is still
tremendous. By daylight to-morrow there
will be no vessel in sight. All that could
be gathered from the half-dead sailors as to
the cause of the stranding of the vessel was
that they did not know where they were,
the sun not having been seen for four days,
and the weather was so thick last night and
this morning that they struck the breikers
before they could see the coast.
The lile-savers have worked all day with
great heroism, without food since early this
morning. The apparently slow progress of
the work of rescue is due to the fact that a
life-boat could not live in tbe surf, that
the guns. would not reach the bark, and that
the crew could not use the breecbes buoy
until they were instructed from shore.
LADIES' FASHIONABLE TIPPLE.
An Orange and Brandy Concoction
That
Tastes Like liurnt Matches.
Orange liquor is getting to be quite a fad
with the women, says the New York Timet.
Gentlewomen who frown puritanically on
their husbands' cocktails and wine suppers
derive pleasurable satisfaction from a mix
ture of burned brandy and orange. The
modus operandi is to cut an orange in half
and turn the skin back with tbe handle of a
spoon so that it will form a cup on top of the
juicy fruit. A thimbleful of brandy is
poured into the golden cup, a lump of sugar
is added, and a lighted match sets tbe liquor
ablaze.
A little gossip passes while the brandy is
burning, and then the highly-flavored
remnant of brandy, sugar, and oil of orange
peel is sipped and pronounced delicious.
At a recent symposium of this character in
the dainty apartments of an amiable blue
stocking, one woman had the frankness to
declare:
"I don't like it It tastes just like burned
matches."

BUMOES OF A BANK TEOUBLE.
A Former President Says the Institution Is
in No Danger.
New Yobk, March 27. There were re
ports about Wall street this afternoon that
the Mechanics and Traders' Bank, of Broom
street and Broadway, was bard pressed for
money and that the directors were having
difiicultv in getting assistance.
Mr. Meyer Thallmessenger, who was
President up to January 3 last, when he
was succeeded by J. Boskwitz, was seen to
night. He said he considered the
bank in a sound condition. He
admitted that in the November
troubles they bad to borrow $1,000,000 'in
Clearing House certificates, but he sajd
these had been repaid while he was in con
trol. He denied that they had been refused
at the time a further loan from the Clearing
House, as he had asked for no other loan.

FAT DIPLOMATIC PLACES.
Something Abont the Japanese and Chinese
allusions.
Tbe Japanese mission is still vacant, and
Senator Blair is, I understand, preparing to
go to China, writes Frank G. Carpenter.
These are two of tbe best missions in the
gift of the Government, though the states
men here do not seem to appreciate them.
The $12,000 a year in Pekin is equal to
$17,000 in London, and Blair will probably
save money while he is in the East. His
house will be furnished for bim and he will
have servants and other extras for which
the Government will probably have to help
pay. He will have as eood a cook as you
on get anywhere outside of Paris, aud he
will live better in China than he has ever
lived here. He will have plenty of good
society in the company of the other diplo
mats who live at Pekin, and his summers
he will spend in the mountains near the
city or in taking tours about the coast in
one of our naval vessels.
The mission at Tokio, Japan, is more ex
pensive, but it is much pleasanteras far as
the intercourse with the people is concerned.
Tokio is as lively a place as Washington.
It has its court society, its clubs, and irom
now on it will have its Senate and House,
bringing the best men from all parts of
Japan there every winter. There are sev
eral hundred foreigners living in Tokio, and
one uns nil the advantages or civilization.
Some of the native bookstores have the
latest editions of all foreign works and the
markets are equal to those of New York.
The Japanese are verv friendly with Ameri
cans. They pride themselves on being like
us, and the man who gets this $12,000 place
will have one of the soltest snaps and
pleasantest positions in the gitt of the Gov
ernment. I have just received a letter from Edward
Bedloe, who is now at Amoy, China. He
writes me that Amoy is an "earthly para
dise, where sea and sky, land and lake,
plain and peak, make a panorama that ex
cels aught I have ever seen in my life." He
goes on to congratulate himself on his posi
tion and its advantages for the study of the
Chinese language and the pbilosphy and
questions of the far Bast. He predicts an
increase in trade between Chiua and the
United States, and evidently has a high
idea of the abilities ot bis Celestial brothers.
SABNTJH AND HIS FEN.
An Experience One of the Dispatch
Corre
spondents Had With Him.
I bad a curious experience with the great
showman and advertising philanthropsist,
Mr. P. T. Barnum, about a year ago, which
is worthy of being printed, writes Frank G.
Carpenter to The Dispatch. I was pre
paring an article for this newspaper, and I
wanted an expression from Mr. Barnum on
the subject. I wrote asking for it, and by
return mail received tbe following reply:
Dear Sir Yours received. I hare more
calls from magazines and popular newspapers
for what I can writo tban I can supply. Every
penny earned by my pen Is given to worthy
charitable objects, and-1 don't write anything
without receiving liberal payment tberefor.
Truly Yours, P. T. Barxtjm.
P. S. I nearly finished a fortnigbt ago an
article on tbe snbject you name, for which
either of three or four magazines would gladly
pay mo liberally. P. 1'. B.
In responsnJo this I wrote to Mr. Barnum
telling bim that while I could not give him
as much perhaps as some of tbe magazines,
I would gladly pay what would be a good
newspaper rate lor the matter, and that I
could give him a very wide circulation for
it. A few days after this I received another
letter which read as .ollows:
New York, May 8. 189a
My Dear Sir My time and brain are en
tirely too valuable to be sold for the amount
you mentioned. Yonrs truly,
P. T. Bakntjm.
A few weeks after this an article on tbe
subject above spoken ot appeared signed by
Mr. Barnum in a weekly publication issued
in New York City. I met tbe editor of this
publication at Saratoga and asked him what
he paid for the article. He replied: "I did
not pay Mr. Barnum anything. One of my
writers called upon him and he dictated the
article to bim and gave it to him for noth
ing." This, however, was probably a mat
ter of friendship, for I happen to know tbat
Mr. Barnum does write articles himself and
gets good prices for tbem.
HEW YOBE'S POLICE F0ECE.
TVlmt Dr. Howard Crosby Meant by His
Recent Criticism.
We se.e tbe police in full harmony with
tbe law-breakers, receiving pay for their
protection, and the heads of tbe department
fully aware of the constant defiance of law
without an effort to change the condition of
things, says Dr. Howard Crosby in a letter
published a week ago. In the city of New
York tbe police is a very efficient and noble
force in any matter of murder or burglary,
but in what they esteem smalt matters (but
which are the germs of the great crimes)
they are wholly demoralized, and that only
becanse they are wretchedly governed. The
commissioners and inspectors and captains
are tbe blameworthy cause of all, seeking
political prererment or social ease rather
than the good of the commnnitv.
It these high officials wished to, they
could make New York the most law-abiding
city in the world. They have plenty of
money and plenty of men for tbe work, but
they have no heart in it. They wait for
citizens to make complaints when they
sbould see the evils witb their own eyes.
In a single week, by strict watchfulness and
prompt punishment of tbe patrolmed who
are derelict, they could put a new life into
the force and make the city rejoice in
obeyed law.
HOW TO KEEP THE GIELS.
Hotel Keepers Always Solve the Servant
Problem Successfully.
"If housekeepers would take a bint from
hotels," says a hotel man to a writer in the
New York Tribune, "they would have less
trouble with servants. Hotel men have no
trouble jn getting all the help they want,
though they offer only moderate wages. The
difference is not so much in the work as in
the hours.
In a private honsc a girl's labors are from
the rising of tbe sun, even unto the going
down of the same, and more, too. And if
she does happen to get through her work
and ventures to sit down, bermistress is apt
to object. In a a hotel a girl has certain
well-defined duties to perform and after
tbey are performed, as a rule, her time is
her own. If some such arrangement could
be recognized in private houses tbe servant
problem would be much simplified."

NO EIGHT TO EXIST.
So Says Ihe Court of the Universal
0der of Co-Operation.
IT MOST GO IST0 LIQUIDATION.
The Appointment of a Receiver to Be Made
on Heit Tnesday.
A BIG CROWD ST0KUS THE 1IAIS OFFICE
;rXCIAI. TILED KAH TO THH DISFATCIZ.I
Philadelphia, March 27. Judge But
Jer, of the United States Circuit Court, de
cided to-day that tbe Universal Order oi
Co-operation bad no right to do business,
and consequently tbat order must go
into liquidation, and a receiver will at ones
be appointed to take charge of its affairs.
The case was brought up before Judge
Butler during the early part of the week,
and on'application of Lawyers Heverinand
Shakespeare, for the order, an extension was
granted until yesterday, in order to give
time to prepare an answer to the request of
the petitioners. By their attorneys, tho
officers of the order presented an answer to
the complaint, iu which they admit the
complaints made against them, and that the
order submitted itself to the judgment of
the court as to the legality of the business
carried on by it.
No Opposition Made
It was urged by Lawyer Heverin that the
officers of the order did not wish to do any
thing illegal, as they were in every sense of
the word reputable business men of good
standing in the community. The officers
made no opposition to tbe request for a re
ceiver; they were anxious to have a decision,
so that tbey could understand clearly
whether they wtre doing anything contrary
to the laws or not.
Judge Butler then gave bis decision in a
few brie'' sentences. He said tbat nnder
the law the Universal Order of Co-operation
bad no right to carry on the business pecu
liar to it. Tbe order had no authority to
enter into a contract such as had been made
with tbe members of tbe order without first
having sufficient money on hand to carry
them out. The contracts were ultra veres,
and it was not necessary to say anything
further abont them at this time.
Counsel Most Get Together.
As to jurisdiction, it was plain tbat the
corporation should be treated as a trustee,
and being so treated, it was eminently
proper that they should be brought into that
court. Judge Butler said, in conclusion,
that the case wai not contested and counsel
should at once get together and prepare the
order appointing a receiver. This could be
entered ea the record next Tuesday, and at
tbat time tbe appointment of a receiver
would be formally made.
The court room was crowded when the de
cision was given, by the officers of the vari
ous financial affairs in this city, who mani
fested a lively interest in the case. The
decision affects more or less every one of the i
short term orders in tbe city, who now must!
show some stability satisfactory to the court!
betore they can further continue business. '
Judge Butler received an informal protest i
against the appointment of a receiver yester-
l day, signed by 20 members of the order, but
be retused to take it into consideration, and)
no mention was made of it other tban au an
nouncement that It had been received.
The scene around, the main office of the
order soon after the decision was made
known was not pleasant to those of tbe ofs,
cers of the order who happened to be there."
The crowd gathered around the door and
threatened to break down tne door unless ad
mitted to the offices, and once inside tbe cry
was for Driver, but that astute gentleman
was nowhere to be seen, not having been in'
town, tor over a week past. The people
could get no information out of Treasurer
McBracken, and one by one tbey went home.
Dr. Rosenthal, of 800 Passyunk avenpe,'
is secretary of Branch 33, and has for some
time been endeavoring to save in some way
tbe money in the bands of the officers to the
people. He now says that he will leave no
stone unturned to obtain a proportionate
division of the funds among the members of
the order.
ABTIST8 IK BAIMEKT.
Fourteen Parisian Designers of Ladles
Gowns Arrive In New York.
New York, March 27. Among the
cabin passengers who arrived from Europe
to-day by the steamship Werra were 14
Parisian designers of ladies' fashionable
gowns. These artists have been engaged by
the managers of tbe New York and Paris
Young Ladies' Fashion Bazar, to contribute
exclusively to the columnsof tbatmagazine.
All of them are well known in New York,
for their reputations have preceded them.
Mrs. Astor, the Vanilerbilts, Mrs. Cleve
land and Mrs. Marshall O. Boberts are
among the society leaders who have
worn gowns designed by these artists.
In an interview one of the de
signers said: "Paris still leads the
world of fashion, although Eugenie no
longer sits on tbe throne. Parisian gowns
have a style about them that cannot bs
equaled. That, I suppose, is the reason
why we have been engaged to come to
America to teach the ladies of your beauti
ful country, through the columns of tho x
New York and Paris Young Ladies' Fashion
Bazar, how these wonderiul creatioos ot the
dressmaker's art are constructed. It is oar
business to design the handsomest and most
fashionable gowns for tbe different seasons
of the year. These designs will be printed
in colors, and will be accompanied by such
clear instructions as to the selection of ma
terials and tbe cutting and fitting of the
garments, that no woman or sense will hive
the least difficulty in making perfect fitting
gowns herself.
"It is a knack, a science, to fashion a
gown that will make a very small and very
fleshy lady appear slim. Not one designer
ontof a thousand can hit upon tbe true
lines unless he or she makes it the study of
a lifetime. You ought to sec the April
number of our magazine. We have de
signs in it that will take the hearts of the
ladies by storm. They do not get a new
dress made up every day, and I can tell yon.
it is an important item to get the best maga
zine and the. very latest and most exquisite
Paris styles, and have it fashioned like the
one that is best suited to their figure."
