CIVIL SERVICE CHIII‘E

Deputy Collectors May Go From
the Classified Service.

 

ADMINISTRATION MAY ACT

 

Reported Terms of the House Bill to
Modify the Systeln—Hard Fight
Expected in the Senate Over the
Caucus.

Washington, Dec. 14.—One of the re-
sults of the anti-civil-service confer-
ence of Republican Congressmen Sat-
d‘rday is the announcement that per-
hhps the Administration will act in the
matter before Congress. It is rumored
at the Treasury Department that an
order is contemplated taking the Dep-
uty Collectors of Internal Revenue out
03 the classified service, and that this
will be followed by other changes, n01
Only in the Treasury, but in other de-
partments.

'So far as Congress is concerned, it is ,

MRS. M’KINLEY’S FUNERAL.

The President's Mother Buried Be-
side Her Husband.

Canton, Ohio, Dec. 15.—The body of
Mrs. Nancy Allison McKinley was
buried beside that of her husband in
the family lot in Westlawn Cemetery
yesterday afternoon. The funeral was
the largest ever held in Canton.

Some of the most distinguished men
of the nation were present. Thousands
of residents of Stark County, and of
Ohio gathered to pay respect to the
memory of the President’s mother.

At the McKinley homestead the fam-
Ily and immediate relatives and officers
of the United States Government as-

sembled at 12.30 o’clock, and a brief I

service was held, conducted by Dr.
Manchester, assisted by Dr. Macafee,
of Columbus, who was President Mc-
Kinley’s pastor when he was Governor

' of Ohio.

 

expected that the House Committee on g
,5 McKinley. All business houses in town

Civil Service, soon after the holidays,
Will report a bill carrying out the
ideas of the more moderate of the op-

, nents of the extended civil—service:

system, and that a. vigorous eff 1t will
be made for its consideration if the
House. The measure reported will
probably, in addition to fixing narrow
limits within which the classification
shall extend, propose some tenure of
-office for clerks in the classified serv-
ice, and will aim to curtail the pow-

I
ers and check the growth of the Civil- I

Service Commission. The general un-
derstanding is that the Democrats will
assist the Republicans Opposed to the

law, provided the proposed modifica-j

tions do not go too far.

 

The Census and Civil Service.

Washington, Dec. 14,—The Census
bill will be before the Senate this week,
and a lively fight is expected, espe-
cially in regard to whether the new
bureau shall be placed under the Civil-
Service law or not. It seems, there-
fore, likely that both Senate and
House will discuss civil service re~
form this week.

The bill, which has been reported to
the Senate by the Committee on Cen-
sus, provides for a permanent Census
Commissioner, who shall be assisted
by such clerks and statisticians as are
deemed necessary to prepare the de-
tailed plan for the twelfth and subse-
quent censuses. Commissioner of La-
bor Wright, who completed the last
census, believes that there should be
some preliminary training for men
who are to undertake the work, and
the Committee on Census is evidently
of the same opinion. It is also pro-
posed to limit the scope of the census
in regard to manufactures to show
only the total output, the number of
men employed and the raw material.
It is argued that a permanent Census
Bureau would be able to collect bien-
nial statistics which would be far

more valuable than reports gathered!

every ten years. It is also proposed to
limit the work regarding population,

and several lines of inquiry which were I

followed in the last census will be
omitted.

The Senate, as at present constituted,
is strongly in favor of keeping the cen-
sus out of the classified service, and
allowing appointments to be made at
the discretion of the director, subject
to such examinations as he may pre-
scribe, with the approval of the Secre-
tary of the Interior.

THE DAY IN THE HOUSE.

Legislative Appropriation Bill Re-
ported—Comes Up To-day.
Washington, Dec. 14.—-Mr. Bingham
(Rep, Pa), from the Appropriation
Committee, reported to the House yes-
terday the Legislative, Executive and
Judicial Appropriation bill, which he
gave n‘otice he would call up to-day. I

The bill carries a. total of $21,562,425, ' have Put extra organizers

being $780,861 less. than the estimates

The body of Mrs. McKinley was re—
moved to the First Methodist Church,
half a dozen blocks from her late home,
at 1 o’clock. All the available space in
the church had been taken a short time
after the building was opened. The
streets were filled about the building.
Thousands of persons formed in line to
take a. last look at the face of Mrs.

were closed.

After the funeral services all of the
Washington guests were entertained at
dinner by Mrs. Harter, and at 8 o’clock
left here on the special train for Wash-
Ington. The car Newport, which is'as—
signed to the President, was attached
to the special train, and in it were the
President, Mrs. McKinley and Abner
McKinley.

GEN. LEE IN DANGER.

Military, Police and Detectives Now
Guard the American Consulate.

Havana, Dec. 15.—The American Con-
sulate in this city is guarded by four
soldiers of the military police of Ha-
vans. and two detectives. There is
much apprehension in Government cir-
cles that an attack may be directed
upon the Consulate by the uncompris-
Ing Spaniards, who are very angry
over the message of President McKin-
ley.

Gen. Lee is serene amid the storm of
passion, and continues to receive every
caller with his usual politeness, and
performs his duties with great regu-
larity.

The pessimistic impressions of Senor
Canalejas concerning the war in Cuba,
and his conclusion that Spain will lose
the island, fill several columns of an
extra issued by Diario de la Marina.
After reading the extra the press cen—
sor consulted with Gen. Blanco, and
speedy orders were. sent to the Diaria
to stop the publication. Nearly the en-
tire edition of the extra was then
burned.

The insurgents are so active around
Havana city that the trains from Ha-
vana to Guanabacoa, a. town only fif-
teen minutes by rail from the capital,
are accompanied by a heavy Spanish
guard for fear of an attack from the
patriots.

 

COAL MIN.r '28 MAY STRIKE.

The Uniformity Contract May Fail
of Adoption.

Pittsburg, Pa., Dec. 15. — Unless
enough signatures are obtained to
make the uniformity contract binding
upon the operators another strike of
coal miners may be declared after Jan.
1. The contract calls for uniform, hon-
est methods of coal production and
one price for mining.

It must be signed by 95 per cent. of
the operators before it can go into ef~
feet, and just what the labors of the
commissioners have effected will be

‘ shown at a meeting of operators called

for Thursday.

If the contract fails to go through the
operators will demand a. rate of 55
cents after Jan. 1, the same rate paid
by W. P. De Armltt. The present dis-
trict rate is 65 cents, and the miners
want an advance of 10 cents per ton.

The outlook is stormy. The miners

sent for the consideration of a. resolu-
tion to print 2,000 copies of the testi-
mony of the Civil Service Commission
before the Appropriations Committee
The work of the commission was pro-
vided for in the appropriation bill, and,
as it was the purpose of the committee
to allow the widest latitude for debate
in the consideration of this item, he
thought the House should be in pos-g
session of this testimony. There was
no objection, and the resolution was

adopted. .
Mr. Cannon, chairman of the Com-I
mittee on Appropriations,

unanimous consent for the considera-
tion of an urgent deficiency bill, which.
he explained carried but three items—
$5,000 for the construction of a building

payment of the temporary employes oi
the House and Senate, and $175,000 for
the payment of the mileage of Sena-
lors and Representatives. The mileage

sion of Congress, he explained, had
been used to pay mileage at the extra
session. The bill was passed withoul
debate.

Sealing In the Senate.

Washington, Dec. 14.-—-In the Senate
Mr. Davis, chairman of the Committee
onAI‘oreign Relations, called up the bill
prohibiting the killing of fur seals ir.
the North Pacific Ocean, but upon the
suggestion of Mr. Pettigrew (S. D.),

who said he desired to offer some.

amendments, the measure went over
until to—day.

A bill was passed for a public build
lng at Durham, N. C.. to cost $125,000.

At 2 p. m. the immigration bill was
taken up. An agreement has been
reached by the Senate to vote on the
Immigration bill at 2 o’clock on Jan
1?, and the Senate then adjourned.

 

A Trust Iinoeked Out.

Chicago, Dec. 14.—It is reported here
that the typewriter trust is on the
verge of collapse. One big concern has
given notice of withdrawal from the
combine in January, and others are ex-
pected to follow suit. This will mean a
fifty-dollar typewriter. Most of the im.
portant patents have expired, and out—
side makers can now duplicate high-
grade machines for a factory price Oi
$12 and $15. Trust sales have been cul

15 last that pretty golden—haire-d,‘blue-
eyed Kate Clum was drugged and car-
ried out of her bedroom by Henry and
Frank Mondore, two negroes living in

the influence of the drugs she was
forced to become the wife of Henry.

Kansas in a Blizzard’s Grip.

Topeka, Kan, Dec. 15,—Dispatches
from five towns in western Kansas

Not to Change Tariff Law.
W'ashington, Dec. 15.—The Dingley
tariff law will not be changed in any
of its customs features at the presenl

i'FORM OF TRIAL ACCORDED

Victilns Strung Up One by One as Fast
as Sentenced—Three Others Whip-
ped and Ordered to Leave the
Country—Two Shot to Death.

New Orleans, Dec. 15.—Iberville par-
Ish has seen many lynchings, but none
3 rnore sensational than that which oc-
curred yesterday morning near the lit-
tle town of St. Gabriel. Three negroes
were hanged by a mob and three others
were brutally whipped and ordered to
'eave the country.

George Bubur kept a store on the
Brown plantation at St. Gabriel, and
g was murdered on the night of Nov. 27.
‘The murderers robbed the store and
got away with a considerable amount
of money. A few days afterwards six
uegroes accused of the murder were ar-
rested at Plaquemine, the seat of jus-
tice of Iberville, and confined in the
lail there. The murder had been most
brutal, and there was much talk of
iynching the prisoners. -

Thomas Jones and James Lovigne,
the latter a. cripple, were among those
arrested. They were brought to this
: zity for safe keeping. They were re-
'moved to Bayou Goula, three miles
from the scene of the murder, last
week, and once more the people of the
country parish declared their intention
to lynch them.

To prevent this, the negroes, with the
others charged with the Bubur murder,
were placed aboard the train and
started for New Orleans Monday after-
noon, it being the intention to keep
them here until time for the trial.
' When the train was three miles from
St. Gabriel an armed mob stopped the
train at the point of weapons, took the
uegroes from the law officers and took
them to the woods.

Judge Lynch’s Court sat in the woods
deliberating by the light of pine
torches. A form of trial, hasty and
one~sided, was given to the terrified
prisoners. Each was tried separately,
and a verdict of guilty was quickly
reached.

Thomas Jones was the first victim.
He was strung up in the presence of
the other prisoners, giving them a good
Idea of what their fate was to be. Then
Iim Lavigne was hanged to the same
tree, and half an hour later another
negro whose name is not reported
shared the same fate.

The mob’s thirst for blood had ap-
parently been quenched, for the other
three negroes were sentenced to be
whipped and banished from the par-
ish. They were tied to trees and beaten
until nearly dead, and then warned
never to show their faces in the neigh-
borhood again. They made off through
the swamp as fast as their wounds
would permit. The mob diSpersed at
daybreak, leaving three dead negroes
hanging to a. tree.

 

 

Two Shot to Death.

Birmingham, Ala, Dec. 15.—In-forma-
tion comes from Kennedy, seventy-two
miles west of here, that Lewis and
lohn Bonner, negroes, were taken from
Howe Monday night by bands of white-
cappers and shot to death.

Lewis Bonner was a United States
witness and also a State's witness
against whitecappers who murdered
another negro three months ago. This
Is supposed to have been the cameo of

, the murders.

ANOTHER BOND ISSUE?
Comptroller Eokels Gives His Views
on President McKinley’s Message.
St. Louis, Dec. 15.—James H. Eckels,

Comptroller of the Currency, when
asked if he agreed with the recom-
mendations as to the currency made

by President McKinley in his recent
message to Congress, said:

“I think they are good as far as they
go. He does not go far enough, in my
poinion, when he says certain things
' hings
that ought to be done should be done.
and especially when they so vitally
touch the country’s life. The President
admits that the $346,000,000 greenlmcks
and $12,000,000 Sherman legal tenders
should be taken up, and would.
I dare say, like to see it done; but it is
a conditional problem with him. Those
notes are simply a. debt, and the only
way to get rid of a debt is to pay it.”

“How would you pay such a vast
sum at one time‘!"

“I would issue long—term 21/; nor cent.
gold bonds, and call those tenders in.
Then these issues could be made gold
certificates.”

“Will the Dingley law produce
enough revenue to pay current ex-
penses?”

"All tariff laws are problematical.
So far the law has not been the success
predicted for it, but as times improve
the revenues will increase, and it may
produce better results.”

To Fight American Shoes.

Washington, Dec. 15.—A British cor-
poration has arranged to start a shoe
factory at Galashiels, Scotland, capa-
ble of turning out 20,000 pairs of shoes
weekly. United States Consul Fleming,
at Edinburgh, in reporting the fact to
the State Department, says this is the
beginning of an attempt to compete
with American shoemaking, and that
a number of these factories are to be
established in different parts of the
United Kingdom.

The British reports show that more
than 45 per cent. of the.total imports
of shoes into the British colonies are of
American manufacture.

Indiana Lynelu-rs Betrayed.

, Indianapolis, Ind. Dec.‘ 15.—Gov.
I Mount has in manuscript the names of
the men who, according to Peter Hos-
tutler, made the mob who lynched the
five thieves at Versailles. It was Hos-
tutler who, acting as a decoy in the
I employ of Ripley County, brought
about the arrest of the men who were
lynched. Having failed to collect from
the county .250 in promised reward, he
now proposes to bring the lynchers to
justice.

SAYS WEEKS DID THE KILLING.

Declares His \Vii‘e
Kim On to Crime.

Bridgeport, Dec. 15.—Charles A. Boi-
n. '. charged with the murder of Mar-
.~-.is Pichols at Daniels Farms, was
~ompelled throughout last week to sit
plietly and listen to the swearing away
of his life by his alleged accomplice,
uavid \Veeks, and, worse than that,
by his wife, was yesterday called to
the stand in his own defense, and in-
structed to tell the story of his life.

After telling of his early life, and of
how his first crime was committed, he
plunged into the story of the murder
of Nichols.

Up to the time of the actual com-
mitting of the crime Boinay’s story
agreed with that told by Vi'eeks. He
narrated how the robbery was planned,
how they watched the house, lying in

“nil-1:." Crgefi

wait in the barn, their first entrance-

into the dwelling—all coincided with
the story previously told. But the con-
tradictory point was reached when he
came to tell about the shooting, of
which he accuses Weeks of being
guilty.

As told by the prisoner, both men
held in their right hands revolvers as
they forced open the door.

"iv/e landed in the middle of the
floor,” said Boinay, “and as we did so,
Mr. Nichols exclaimed, ‘Get out of
here!’ We told him to hold up his
hands, to which he responded by unex-
pectedly hitting me over the head with
his lantern. This dazed me and I
dropped my revolver. Then Vv’eeks
fired two shots and Nichols fell to the
floor. Miss Nichols ran upstairs one
(light and down another, and I followed
her. While I was upstairs I heard two
more shots fired.”

In reply to his attorney, Boinay con—
Iinued that his wife and mother-in-law
were aware they were going to
eonimit the rot-berg, and when they re-
turneu Mrs. Boinay said: “While you
and Dave were away I went over to
Sister Curlis’ house and stole some
chickens, and so you are not the only
persons who know how to poach.”

He also told how be divided the
money with his wife, giving her $62.
He likewise told of their departure
from the scene of the crime, and how,
the Wednesday following, while at
Garrisons, N. Y., with Dave Weeks and
his brother, Will Boinay, he first
learned of John Weeks’ arrest on sus-
picion. How he remarked to his broth-
er that John was innocent and that
Dave responded, “Yes, I shot him my-
self.”

EIGHT HOURS A DAY’S WORK.

Federation Army of 600,000 ‘Vill Be-
gin a Crusade.

Nashville, Tenn., Dec. 15.—The real
work of the seventeenth annual con-
vention of the American Federation of
Labor began yesterday when the com~
rnittees appointed to consider the vari-
ous suggestions made by President
30mpers in his annual report began to
file their reports.

The eight-hour day question is far
and away the chief topic discussed by
the delegates. They represent an en-
rolled army of 600,000 wage earners, and
the sentiment seems practically unani-
mous that agitation in favor of the
general adoption of the eight-hour day
shall be at once begun and pushed vig-
orously in every labor organization in
the land. The feeling, however, is that
May 1. 1898, is too soon to adopt it.

The only man mentioned so far as a
possible candidate against President
Gompers is Harry Lloyd, of Boston,
and even his candidacy has not proved
very strong, Gompers’ friends claim.
There are a few delegates opposed to
Gompcrs, but he seems to have a ma-
jority of friends.

Every indication is that Kansas City
has a cinch on the next place of meet-
ing.

Secretary Morrison’s report made a
remarkable showing as to strikes—that
165,407 people were benefited, while only
940 received no substantial advantage.

It was recommended that the per
capita tax be increased from 1 cent to
5 cents per month.

One of the latest arrivals is Isaac
Cowcn, representing the striking engi—
neers of Great Britain, who is seeking
financial and moral support in the fight
for the eight—hour day.

Applications for membership in the
Federation have been received from
more than five hundred unions
throughout the country. Organizers are
actively at work in every section, and
it is expected that next year will be
even more successful than the last,
when 34,280 new members were admit-
ted in 217 separate organizations.

Does Not Oppose Annexation.

Washington, Dec. 14.—The State De-
partment denies that Great Britain has
protested against the annexation of
Hawaii. Officers of the department
cannot understand how such a report
originated, in View of the attitude of
the British Government since the
treaty was negotiated.

No official reference to this has been
made by Great Britain, but semi-offi-
cial explanations appeared in the Bug-
lish press that the Government recog
nized the right of the United States tr
annex the Hawaiian Islands as a na t-
ural outcome of their geographical sit-
uation and in accordance with the
policy towards which this country has
been tending in the last seventy—five
years.

Texas Town Almost Destroyed.

Dallas, Dec. 14.-—The town of Boyd,
Tex, in the Panhandle country, was
almost totally destroyed by fire yester-
day. The fire started in a feed store,
and was the result of boys smoking
cigarettes. There is no organized fire
department in the town, and the flames
soon got beyond control. Eighteen
business houses and a large number of
dwellings were destroyed. The loss to
business men is estimated at $50,000,
with insurance of only $10,000.

Armour & Co. Buying \Vheat.

Omaha, Neb., Dec. 14.——Armour &
Co., agents throughout Nebraska and
South Dakota are buying enormous

East. At one point in South Dakota—
,Eureka — Armour’s agent has pur-
'chased 50,000 bushels in the past week.
In this State even larger quantities are
being sent to Chicago by Armour men.
The eXact intentions of the firm are
bothering other speculators in this ter-
ritory very much.

Mugnutes’ Big Loss.

New York, Dcc. 14.-—-John D. Rocke-
feller and J. Pierpont Morgan have re-
ceived reports that certain Western
speculations have failed; that Rocke-
feller has lost $3,000,000 by the poverty
of his Washington mines, and Morgan
is out $300,000 by the fading away 01
the assets of the Chicago General Elec-
tric Railway. The losses are small in
comparison with the wealth of the
financiers, but they are a thr'ut at the
pride of these men. .._.__
