last week telegraphed the friends of tho

City that he would ho in I'ottsvillc to-day
ind w.ulu antfiuuce the name of tho next
postmaster. He had not arrived at tho noon
hour, but the delegations her from Maha

ha narrowed down between David Graham

(Jraliam, who is interested with Senator
Cnyle in the publication of the American.

very confident, whllo Heed's friends say
llrumtn daro nt turn down their favorito.
Itisiumorcd that Coylo is backing Meed,
while pietendiug to be for his partner,
Graham.
Ono proposition Ilrumm made to Graham
was this. If he receives the appointment
tin must continue tho publication of tho
Kmerican during his term. The paper is
not a succesi financially or otherwise but
llruuiui realizes that ho has no paper north
of the mountain to plead hit cause, and
seeks this means of securing an oran. The
fact that John O'Donnell, a good newspaper
man, has recently been employed on tb
paper, looks as if Graham has decided to fur
nish the organ for Ilrumm.
Patrick Wolsh and his side-partner, James
MrCool, are here with Graham awaiting the
Congressman's arrival, and Krank Meed is
also on tho ground with a delegation. If
either dear charmer were away, how happy
Ilrumm would b. This Is the harden nut
ho has yet had to crack, and the probabilities
are ho will hit las lingers instead ot the

It was confidently expected that Judge

llice, hut the court announced no decision.
rgumeut on the motion for a new trial was
icard on Friday last. It is rumored that the

'ershing and Koch were in consultation at
the court house this morning, and It was
10:30 before Judges Bechtel and Koch made
their appearance upon Mia Bench, thirty
minutes late. It is rumored that the Com

hat they reached no final agreement. The
decision is looked for any day.

CO.V8TA11LIM QUtSTIONKl).
Chirlos A. Snyder, Esq., created a little
.seujatlou this morning when he notified the
lork of the Courts to examine tho five Con-
tables of Hahanoy City together, as his
client, T. J. Joyce, desired to show that
liquor selling was a habit indulged in on
Sundays by the saloonkeepers of that bor
ough. Tho request was compiled with.
Joseph Bussell, 1st ward constable, was the
first examined by Mr. Snyder. He said ho
lad no knowledge of any one selling on
Snnday. He had seen an article in the
Black Diamond on Sunday, stating that
liquor was sold on Sunday but had not in
vestigated tho charge and ho made no
monthly Investigation before coming to
court. Judge Koch asked why he had not
made the examination and the Constable
answered that ho did not think he was re
quired to. Judgo Koch told him to look the
matter up and roport at the next term of
court. He als road the Constable a lecture
and asked if any prosecutions had been
brought, and how many were charged with
soiling on Sunday. ltujsell replied that one
suit was pending and four or fivo are charged
with violating the law.
Constable Kleliideutz, Second ward, said
ho asked T. J. Joyco for information and
couldn't get it. Ho answered Judgo Koch
by saying he looked for a "den" in his
ward, hut couldn't find it.
Constable M. S. Gelgcr, 3rd ward, stated
that ho sued an Italian for violating tho law
and had subpoenaed Joyco as a witness.
Joyco didn't appear and the caso foil
through. Tho Constable said ho didn't
know that a fire company sold pretzels and
gave be'or with them at a ball. He admitted
ho was givou a ticket aud told to go to the
ball, but ho went to Minersville that day and
uiun't get uaclc until after the ball.
Constable John Leitenberger. 4th ward.
swore he made a persot 1 exaiuinatiou. He
ausweied that ho had 1 o knowledge of any
rows, side issues or sh(A vs, or violations of
the Sunday law.
Constable Daniel UeoriO. of the 5th ward.
was positive there were no violations in his
ward, so far as lis could discover, lit knew
of no selling on Sunday and no side shows in
saloons,
Mr. Snyder : All right. We'll see about
that later.
At this tho matter ended for the presont
Joyco was not ou hand when called.
KKCORDS LOST.
Messrs. Whltehouse and Ulrica applied to
Judge Bechtel for an order to secure a copy
ot the opinion in the case of tho Common
wealth against Thomas McGrath, Director of
the Poor, filed March 10th, 1880. Itdeieloped
that the opinion recorded In tho casu is miss
ing and cannot be found on file. Judge
Bechtel didn't see that tho opinion had any,
thing whatever to do with the caso of the
preseut county commissioners, lit was
positive) it had no bearing whatever. Messrs,
Whitekouse and Ulrich politely dissented
from tho court's opinion aud insisted upon
their request.
MINOR NOTKS,
Judgo Bechtel handed down the following
decisions :
William Reynolds, Treasurer Blytho town
ship, Martin Murphy, Treasurer Case town,
ship, bonds approved.
Schuylkill Trust Company vs. First Na
tional Bank of Mahauoy City; the rule ob
tained to show cause why the satisfaction of
the $5,000 mortgage on the property of Mary
Bast, of Schuylkill Haven, by the bank
should not be stricken from the record was
made absolute.
Tho rule to show cause why the license
granted to Bartholomew Fell, of Girardvllle,
should not be revoked was discharged,
In the caso of William Oates, by his father,
John, against P. & IC. C. & I. Co., a suit for
damages, the demurrer was overruled aud
defendants given leave to plead by mention
iug the receivers as co-defendants.
Tho saloon license granted to John Cowol!
of the Fourth ward, was transferred to his
brother, Joseph. Judgo Bechtel said that
had not the testimony shown that Joseph is a
brother of Johu's and a man of fitness and
intelligence, tho contention that he had but
recently been naturalized and as to other
points the court might havo opposed the
transfer. Another important feature Is the
fact that John Intends opening a school,
In the caso of Sabilla Davis vs. Martin
and Margaret Davis tho latter was declared
the only one liable In the action.
By Judge Koch : Tho motion to have the
costs of the proposed public road view in
Hahanoy township paid by the county will
be decided when tho olllcial report of the
viewers is disposed of by the court. Judge
Koch said that under the Acts of 1887 and
1601 tho court has discretion over the costs.

CHURCH REMODELED.
The Methodist I.'plscopal Church l'rcsoiit
An Improved Appearance,
Tho main auditorium of tho Methodist
Episcopal church, at the corner of Whito and
Oak streets, was thrown open yesterday after
having been closed Tor soveral weeks for re
pairs and improvements. Tho work is not
finished, but tho church was in condition for
service yesterday. More seats nro to be
placed and the Whito street entrance needs
wainscoting and painting, after which the
carpenters and painters will withdraw.
The appearance of the interior has been
greatly chauged. The seats have been ar
ranged in amphi-theatro stylo aud the
rostrum is now at tho centre on tho White
street side, instead of at the southern end of
the church. Theroaro some who are not
nthusiastic over tho change, but all agree
that it is an improvement in at least one re
spect. Tho eutiie congregation is brought
within easy heariug distance of the pulpit.
1 here are now two entrances to tho audi
torium, on Oak street and on White
street. Tho embarrassments met with on
occasions of funerals and other special
gatherings on account of the . peculiarly
narrow construction of tho Oak street en
trance will be avoided iu tho future, as the
Whito street entrance has been added for
that very purpose. The entrances from the
two vestibules are at tho southern and
northern ends of the auditorium, respec
tively. Iu tho re-arrangement of the seats a
pitch of fourteen inches has been given to
the floor, which has been covered with a new
uud beautiful brutscls carnet. a aift from
tho ladios of th church. Much of jhe fresco
work on the walls and ceiling of tho church
has been retouched aud adds to the appear
ance of what is now a modernized edifice.

ROYAL
POWDER
Absolutely Puro
Washington, March 7. The Spanish
situation developed two new phases
yesterday, when It became known that
the Spanish government had formally
requested the recall of Consul General
Lee from his post at Havana, to which
request the United States had courte
ously but llrmlv refused to comply;
also, that the Spanish government has
suggested the impropriety of sending
relief supplies to the Cuban reeoncen
trados on the cruiser Montgomery and
gunboat NaBhville, to which suggestion
tho United States had given a like an
swer In the negative.
The first Intimation of these steps
came in a brief and explicit cable dis
patch from Madrid. Prior to Us re
ceipt, however, the authorities here had
been fully conversant with the facts,
although no intimation had been al
lowed to get to the public on either sub
ject. This disclosure from Madrid left
no further ground for reticence In
"Washington, and after a conference at
the White House between the president,
Assistant Secretary Day, of the state
department, and Secretary Long, of the
navy department, the following au
thorized statement was handed to the
press by Judge Day as comprising
everything that was to be said by the
administration on the subject:
"The president will not consider the
recall of General Lee. He has borne
himself throughout this crisis with
Judgment, fidelity and courage, to the
president's entire satisfaction. As to
the supplies for the relief of the Cuban
people, all arrangements have been
made to carry a consignment this week
from Key West by one of the naval
vessels, whichever may be best adapted
and most available for the purpose, to
Matnnzas and Sagua."
Beyond tho foregoing those who had
participated In the conference at the
"White House would not discuss the
subject, and It was stated positively
that the authorized statement com
prised everything that would be given
to anyone.
The request for General Lee's recall
is understood to have come within the
last few days, and doubtless since the
last cabinet meeting on Friday, as no
reference was made to It at that time.
It camo through Minister Woodford, a
somewhat unusual proceedure, as the
common mode of requesting the with
drawal of u minister or a consul is
through the representative of the gov
ernment making the request, which in
this case Is Senor Du Dose, the Spanish
charge d'affaires. Mr. Du Bosc had re
ceived no Instructions on the subject,
and was In complete Ignorance of the
demands made through Minister Wood
ford. The other suggestion of the Span
ish government that relief supplies
should not be sent in war vessels did
not come through Minister Woodford,
but was presented by Senor Du Bosc
to the state department last Friday.
The grounds on which General Lee's
recall was asked are not officially dis
closed. It is known, however, that the
Spanish government has chafed for
some time over General Lee's presence
in Havana, although this had never
taken the form of a definite protest
prior to the present time. It began to
assume a more serious aspect shortly
after the arrival of the Maine at Ha
vana. At that time General Lee escort
ed Captain Sigsbee on his round of of
ficial calls. These were made with due
formality, but the Spanish officials took
offense when the calls wero restricted
to General Blanco. Admiral Mantarola
and the representatives of themllltary
arm of Spain s service, and did not In
clude Premier Galvez and his associates
of tho autonomous cabinet. The mat
ter came to the attention of Senor Du-
puy de Lome, then Hpunlsh minister at
Washington, and although there were
no protests, the situation doubtless
reached the state department, hb suit
able amends were made by Captain
Slgsbeo'a calling on Dr. Congosto, the
civil secretary general, and Premier
Galvez and his associates.
Thero was like Irritation over a din
ner given by Consul General Lee to
the otllcers of tho Maine. The list of
guests on that occasion Is said to havo
omitted some ot the Spanish naval of
ficers, and to have Included, quite con
spicuously, the names of a number of
American newspaper correspondents
Who wero regarded by tho Spanish of
ficials at Havana as antagonistic to
them.
Since the Maine disaster a report has
been circulated that General Lee held
the personal opinion that tho explosion
was due to external cause. .No olllcial
roport ot this character was ever sent
to Washington so far as Is known. But
the mere circulation of the report at
Madrid, attributing such views to Gen
eral Lee, has been the source of much
feeling In Spanish olllcial circles. The
press dispatches from Madrid also dis
close that General Lee Is hold account
able nt the Spanlah capital for the pro
ject of the purchase of Cuba bv the
United Stales from Spain, as well an
for a general sentiment of sympathy
toward the Insurgents. The suggestion
of Tho Impurclal, a leading government
organ, that the next session of tho
cortes will consider the case of General
Lee, shows the stiong Intluences which
Induced the Sagasta cabinet to ask his
recall. Senor Dupuy de Lome's en
forced retirement is also felt to have
awakened a counter sentiment at Zrtad
rid, which finds expression against
Consul General Lee,
There Is little doubt, however, that
the main cause ot Spain's action Is the
sympathies General Leo has shown for
the Cuban sufferers. It Is shown that
his active and open sympathy with the
people who have suffered so greatly
during the present insurrection, Ameri
can citizens as well as native Cubans,
has not been accepted by the Spanish
officials In Cuba as an exhibition of dig-
lnterestefl offlrlmitm. Such as Is ex
pected of consular officers.
As a nntter of fact, Spnln requires
no formal excui"e for the dismissal of
a consular officer, according to Interna
tional law. These oiricers are not en
dowed usually with diplomatic priv
ileges, and thy prist entirely by tho
sufferance of the nations to which they
are went. So Consul General Leo may
be dlnmlsscd from his post at the pleas
tire of the Spanish government, and
this would not violate any section o
International law. Thlg radical course
Ib not expected, however, and all the
indications reaching officials here Is
that Spain will not proceed further
with the Incident.
The supplies for the starving Cubans
will not be taken on the cruisers Mont
gomery and Nashville. It is under
stood that the dispatch boat Fern will
perform the duty. The Fern Is mui h
better dulled for such duties.
