CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.-
Interesting Addresses at the lilassachu-
setts Reform Club's Meeting. '
Boston, March 27.—“The Present Cri-
sis in Civil Service Reform” was the
subject of four unusually interesting
addresses at a dinner of the Massachu-
setts Reform club. The speakers were
Marriott Brosius, 'member of congress
from Pennsylvania and chairman of the
house committee on civil service reform;
Lucius B. Swift of Indianapolis, Edward
M. Shepard of Brooklyn and Charles J.‘
Bonaparte of Baltimore.
Representative Brosius devoted the
greater part of his address'to the recent
attacks upon civil service reform in
congress. “The subject,” he began, “no
doubt refers to the quadrennial agita-
tion, particul rly after there has been a
change in administration.” There was,
however, no crisis in this work of re-
form. he said. 'He paid a tribute to
President McKinley, who, he said,
“stands like a stone wall to turn back
the flood of ofl'ice seekers and patronage
purveyors who swarm about the White
House today.”
Lucius B. Swift of Indianapolis, the
next speaker, arraigned President Mc-
Kinley for "appointing men to impor-
tant positions unfit to represent the peo-
ple of the United States.” The appoint-
ment of ex-Chairman Gowdy of .‘the In-
diana Republican state committee as
consul general at Paris, his choice of a
minister to Mexico and several appoint-
ments in Indiana were criticised at con-
siderable length.
Edward M. Shepard of Brooklyn de-
voted his address principally to the his-
tory of civil service reform legislation
in New York and the opposition to it
at the present time. He incidentally
referred to United States Senators
Platt and Murphy, and asked: “Do
those men represent the state of New
York? Not at all.” He added: “I do
not disparage either of those men, but I
should be stung to the very quick if I
thought they represented New York.
They represent the development in
American politics which we derive from
the spoils system.” He then devoted his
attention to the United States senate as
a body, declaring that it‘ was held in
contempt and did not represent this
country.
The last speaker was Charles J.
Bonaparte of Baltimore. During his
spirited address he also scored past
and present administrations at Wash-
ington for ignoring civil service reform
principles.
ARBITRATOR 0N ARBITRATION.
lVllliam R. Cremer Against Acceptance
by England of the Amendments.
London, March 27.—An interview is
published here with William R. Cremer,
formerly member of parliament for the
Haggerston division of Shoreditch, Rad-
ical, who has for several years been sec-
retary of the International Arbitration
league, and who is editor of the society’s
organ, The Arbitrator. Mr. Cremer is
quoted as saying that he considers it in-
advisable to ratify the amended arbi-
tration treaty. He says that the British
government will almost certainly refuse
to accept the treaty in its emasculated
form and asserts that there is good rea-
son to hope that in a few months it will
be carried as originally proposed. He
says he will be greatly surprised. if the
Americans do not make their voices
heard in such a way as to induce the
senate to alter its position before next
session. He adds:‘*‘
“There is no doubt Senator Morgan is
the chief obstacle. When in Washing-
ton, I had a long talk with President
Cleveland relative to arbitration, and
Mr. Cleveland suggested sounding the
senate. I' saw Senator Morgan, who
expressed warm approval of the princi-
ple.
“ ‘Tell the president,’ he said, ‘that if
he sends a treaty to us I will get it
through the committee in 48 hours.’
“I repeated this to Mr. Cleveland, and
judge of my surprise when I landed in
Liverpool to read Senator Morgan’s vio-
lent attack upon England.”
Archbishop of Dublin Ill.
Dublin, March 27.—The Most Rev.
William Conyngham Plunket (Lord
Plunket), Protestant archbishop of
Dublin, is. so seriously ill that his phy-
sicians consider his condition hopeless.
He was born in 1828 and succeeded to
the title on the death of his father in
1871. On the resignation of Archbishop
Trench in 1864 Lord Plunket was elect-
ed archbishop of Dublin.
The President af‘a Drill.
Washington, March 27.—President Mc-
Kinley, with the members of his cabi-
net and the ladies of their families, by
invitation of Colonel Sumner, command-
ing the United States forces at Fort
Myer, Va. just across the river from
“Tashingtonettended an exhibition drill
of the cavalry troops quartered at that
post and also partook of luncheon with
Colonel Sumner.
Peru’s \Vise Move.
Washington, March 27.—To promote
the extension of various branches of in—
dustry in Peru the government has by a
decree transmitted to the state depart-
ment by United States Consul Jastrem-
ski at Callao provided for a permanent
exposition of machinery of all kinds, to
which foreign exhibits will be admitted
duty free. The exposition opens at Cal-
lao July 28. ,
Hawaii \Vants to Join Us.
Washington, March 27.—It is said to
be probable that formal application for
annexation to the United States will be
made soon by the government of Ha~
waii through‘its minister to the United
States. The application will be present-
ed to the state department, and it is ex—
pected will be transmitted to congress.

Crown Prince Constantin Goes to 00m-
mind the Greek Forces.
HE SAYS HE KNOWS HIS DUTY
And Assures 'His Countrymen That He
Will Acquit Himself Like a Soldier.
His Departure Believed to Be
the Signal For IIostilities.
Athens, March 29.—Crown Prince Con-
ltantin, who is to take command of the
Greek forces on the frontier, has started
for Volo. He was accompanied by the
crown princess, who will go as far as La-
rissa, where she will inspect the arrange-
ments made by the Red Cross society. She
will remain there two (1&3 and then re-
turn to Athens.
An immense demonstration was made
before the palace previous to the depar-
ture of the crov’vn prince. The crowd en-
thusiastically cheered for the royal pair,
the king of Greece, Crete, etc. A deputa—
tion presented the crown prince with a
copy of the resolut’ons which were adopt-
ed at a public meeting held recently de-
Pir : us were faithful interpreters of the
sentiments of the nation, which was ready
to make any sacrifice of blood or money
in the cause of Crete. ' '
Crown Prince Constantin replied as fol—
lows: “Have confidence in me. I know
my duty. Rest assured I shall acquit my-
self like a soldier.” .
After the family dinner at the palace
the “Te Deum” was sung in the chapel,
the metropolitan officiating. The crown
prince kissed the metropolitan’s hands,
and the king and queen kissed the prince
and princess. All were deeply affected.
It is semioflicially stated that the ques-
tion of declaring war depends upon the
present negotiations with the powers. No
one on the streets of Athens believes this,
all accepting the departure of the crown
prince as indicating that Greece has come
to a definite decision to go to war.
In Candie the public heralds are con-
stantly running through the streets ex-
horting the faithful to make a sortie and
fight the Christians. An official who vis-
ited Captain Koeakas’ camp was informed
that he had 16,000 troops and provisions
enough to last five months.
The government has issued severe or-
ders to the chiefs of the frontier army to
restrain the troops and prevent any ag-‘
gression.
By order of the government the Greek
commandant at Pincus, the port of
Athens, today prohibited the departure of
the steamer Heralrlia and confiscated her
cargo. which consisted of provisions in-
tended fer Mussulmans on the island of
Crete.
The government commanders in Thes-
saly have adopted stringent measures to
prevent the spread of smallpox, which is
raging among a portion of the troops.
A dispatch from Khania says that can-
non firing has been proceeding near Aliki-
anon, where Colonel Vassos, the com—
mander of the Greek army in Crete, is en-
camped.
A dispatch from Khania says that the
insurgents at Akrotiri fired on the launch
of the British admiral, which was en route
from'Suda bay to witness the attack on
the blockhouse above Fort Izibdin.
Russia‘s Policy.
St. Petershurg, March rsit—The Greeks
are overflowing with joy at every one of
the further complications which follow
the efforts of the powers to establish order
in Crete, and reports are made that this
sentiment of exultation has given rise to
a. strong feeling that Greece has been en-
couraged in her refusal to aid the powers
by their ovcriudulgcnce. and in conse-
quence a policy of greater severity will
soon be forthcoming, even if one power
were to fall out of the concert.
The Novoe Vremya, which now repre-
sents fairly Russia’s fixed policy, says:
“The blockade of Greece must be hasten-
ed, even if Lngland stands aloof. ' All
means are good to bring good sense home
to the Greeks. The only danger is in a
conflict between the Greeks and the Turks.
We must let the Greeks know they must
renounce that desperate step and give up
ambitions for which they started the Cre-
tan agitation.”
‘Var Seems Inevitable.
London, March 29.—-—A dispatch to The
Observer from Athens says: “It is stated
on the best of authority that War may be
expected to break out at any moment,
most.probably near Arts and less prob
ably near Larissa. In diplomatic circles
the presonre of Crown Prince Constantin,
it is believed, will have arestraining influ-
ence on Illa troops, more especially the
troops now formed in brigades, thus break-
ing the influence of the national commit-
tee, which has hitherto been paramount.”
A disp .tch to The Observer from Berlin
says that Lieurenant General von Bergoltz‘
of the Fifth division, Third army‘corps,
is a candidate for governor of Crete. It
is said that Germany, Russia, Austria and
Turkey have agreed to support’him.
A dispatch to The Observer from Rome
says the officials of the foreign oflice con.
sider l-ll It. war between Turkey and Greece
is inevitable.

of ice and logs on the upper Hudson

way and extends three miles up the

would cause me to hawk, spit, and often
gag in the morning, before I could clear
my throat. ' I got some California Ca-

already these symptoms are very much
better. My throat is finely free from all
