DISCUSSION OF THE QUESTION IN CONFERENCE, TThare Be am 7aa Uxe 8 tri klag O f the Clavaa I tha Discipline Frawldlaa; far at Tlva Yeatra Llnatt A. Dalagst AdTMtl Llta PuMtkU-TlM fa Ea-Ites-a. Omaha, May IS. Bishop Foster waa ia the chair today at the methodist episcopal general conference. A resolution was introdaced expressing the satisfaction of the conference upon the efforts of the fraternal delegates from the methodist episcopal church South and the independent methodist church, and expressing hope that in the near future all branches of the (Treat methodist church will become one body in the Lord. The ballot for the ecretary of the Sunday-school and tract society was taken, and while the tellers retired to the committee-room the election of an editor for the Methodist Rerieio was taken up. J. W. Mendenhall, the present editor was the only nominee, and received A handsome Tote, doubly assuring his success. Ta Btrlka Oat the lMva-Yaav Limit The special order was then taken up. It Was the report of the itinerancy committee proposing to strike out that section in the discipline providing for the fire-years' limit on the pastorate and to allow the bishops the option of Bonding a minister back to the same place, year after year, if expedient. Arthur Edwards of Chicago, editor of the NorthwesUrn Christian Advocate, was the first speaker. He favored abolishing the flve-year limit. It was held, he said, by some that this would abolish itinerancy. It would do no such thing. Every caetorate) would cease at the end of every year juet as they do now. This would simply give the bishops and presiding elders power to keep xuen in those places where they could be of the greatest benefit to the church, and it would entirely remove the apparent claim of the pastors upon the right to be kept in the same place for five years. Ir. Buckley Ka-alalad. Now came the election of an editor for the Christian Adivcati of New York, the itinerancy debate being interrupted. The Kev. Dr. Mains of the New York east conference in a neat speech which had to be rhort on account of the rules nominated Vr. J. M. Buckley who has been editor of the chief paper of the church for twelve fears. The nomination was greeted by a general burst of applause from all over the house the galleries joining in the enthusiasm. When the applause had subsided Bishop Foster asked "'Am I to understand that in to be the unanimous nomination of the conference?" ''Yes, yes" shouted a score of delegates. If the Voles of the conference had permitted, Dr. Buckley would have been elected by J, rising vote but the rules were carried -put and a ballot was taken. Dr. Moora'a Nomination. Dr. D. II. Moore was nominated for the editorship of the Western Christian Ad locate ot Cincinnati. His nomination aroused Almost as much enthusiasm as that caused Dy Dr. Buckley for the New York editorship. Dr. Moore had been the special champion of the women in the great discussions that have been waged in the church for several fears upon the admission oi women as delegates to the general conference. His nomination for the editorehip of tho Wertem Advocate was heartily seconded by A score of delegates. After the ballot was taken the tellers retired and the report of the committee on itinerancy regarding the time limit was aain taken up. Tha Debate On. The Kev. Mr. Ackerman of Tennessee made a ringing speech and made rome pretty lively thrusts at the presiding elders ani the biehops. The speaker created a good deal of merriment. The conference guyed him, crying ' louder" when he was yelling at the top of his Toice. A minority report from ttie committee was presented opposing the abolishing the present limit, five vears. Dr. Caswell of southern California then got the floor. He was in favor of the majority report. He held that the needs of tha church and tho judgment of the bishops end presiding elders should decide upon the appointments and not almanacs. He believed in keeping men in the places wbere they could do the most good regardless of the number of years, lie liked the idea of life pastor. Tba Bavllota. The result of the ballot for editor of the Kew York Christian Advocate was read as follows: Total number of votes, 402: Dr. J. M. Puckley, C63; Dr. J. II. Pitts, 31; Francej . Willard, 15 applause, and the rest scattering. Dr. Buckley was declared elected. The election of an editor for the Northwestern Chrütian Advocate came next. The nominees were Dr. Arthur Edwards and Dr. E. D. Whitlock. Dr. Edwards has been editor of the Northwestern Advocate for twenty years. After the ballot was taken the tellers retired and the chairman announced tha result of the ballot for editor of the Wettern hrittian Advocate at Cincinnati. Dr. D. H. Moore received föö; T. B. Nee ley, 10; J. F. Motcher. 4, tnd be rest scattered. Dr. Moore was declared elected. It is generally conceded that Dr. Arthur Edwards has been elected. Omaha, Heb., Mav 20. Bishop Foca f:resided and N. Ii. ßidgeway of Illinois ed the devotions at the methodist episcopal general conference today. About the first thing that was sprung was a question of finances. Some very vigorous remarks were olfereJ. One delegate declared that it waa nonsense to talk about borrowing- the money from the book concern, because the money would never be paid back. . After much wracglioz the conference, however, did what general conferences have done before, decided to draw the mount from the book concern. On the second ballot Dr. C. If. Payne received 206 votes and was elected socretary of the board of education. The delegates who clamored for the election of more bishops at the present session made a frantic effort to open up the question again. A motion for reconsideration, however, was laid cs the table in the twinkling of an eye. The committee on temperance and prohibition of the liouor tratfic has a report a yard long that will be presented soon. The report reaffirms the well-known attitude of the church upon the saloon question and declares that the church is in harmony with every organization that seeks to promote total abstinence and the overthrow of the liquor traffic The report says we affirm the language of the episcopal address of 1833 which said: The liquor t raffia ia so er&ieoua ia all ita baariugt, so iaimical to the interests of hooeit trade, to rtpugnaot to the moral leme, ioiaJwriooa to the peace and order of society, that the ooly proper attitude toward it for Christiana ia that of relentless hostility. Ii can csvar be legalized without tin. The traffic is stoutly condemned and the whole licensing plan for liquor saloons is declared to be a means to footer and sustain the damaging traffic. Closing the report says that while it is not tne province i the church to suggest or dictate aa U

political proclivities of any man, yet the committee declare that political party has a right to expect, neither ought any party to receive, the support of Christian men eo long as that party stands committed to the license policy. During the proceedings today it was decided to instruct the central conference in India not to make the changes recently decided upon by that conference but to await the adoption of changes to be made by the general conference looking to the establishment of five conferences instead of three. A red-hot resolution introduced by Dr. Hammond of California was adopted, declaring that the iniquitous opium habit was makincr fearful headway on the Pacific coast and vigorous steps should be taken to stamp it out. Judge Lawrence offered a resolution to have a commission appointed for the purpose of ascertaining what eteos could be taken to have the methodist episcopal church united under one organization. Tha Hiahopa to Report. Dr. W. 11. Shier of the Detroit conference succeeded in having a resolution adopted requiring the missionary bishops to report all moneys received from private sources for the help of the missionary work in foreign lands. Bishop Taylor, it was said, as an illustration, has been getting about $30,000 per year for Africa that he has not been obliged to report to the missionary societies. That patriarch of methodism, Dr. TV ill -iam Nast of Cincinnati, was introduced to the conference just before adjournment. The old gentleman is eighty yearn of age and spoke with great difficulty. The fact that he has been over half a century editor of the Methodist Apologrte has endeared him to the hearts of the methodist people. Omaiia, Neb., May 1!). Chaplain McCabe has organized a mixed choir which is furnishing very satisfactory music for the methodist episcopal general conference. Bishop Merrill presided today and Dr. George P. Mains led the devotional exercises. Mr. Amos Shin kle got the floor immedietaly after the preliminaries and said ho wanted to introduce a resolution that would save at least SI, (XX). The resolution provided that during the election proceedings all but delegates chould be excluded from the conference floor, and in voting all the delegates stand until the teile passed them with the hat collecting the ballots, thus doing away with the call of the roll in voting. The resolution was adopted. The election of an editor of the Central Christinn Advocate was taken up. Dr. Stewart of Kansas City nominated Dr. Jef-se Bowman Young. Klder Shank of Nebraska nominated Chancellor C. F. Creighton. Dr. Madison of St. Louis, Dr. McElroy of Illinois, the Rev. J. C. TV. Coze, Dr. Goodwin of Illinois and W. T. Smith of Iowa were nominated. The delegates bobbed up like quails out of a etubblefield to second the various nominations. The nominations of Dr. Jesse Bowman Young, Dr. Creighton, Dr. Goodwin and Dr. McElroy were particularly well provided with reinforcement. An Exciting- Klectlon. This election created more excitement than anything that has preceded in the line of election. Before toe ballot was taken Bishop Merrill announced the election of Dr. Arthur Edwards as editor of the Northwestern Christian Advocate by the last ballot taken on the previous day. Dr. Edwards got 307 votes out of a total of 40. Tho result appeared to be eminently satisfactory to the congregation. The ballot for the editor of the Central Advocate was taken. Mr. Shinkle'sBcheme for balloting proved to be a veritable time-saver. The ballot was taken in four minutes, whereas by the old way of cilling the roll it required nearly half an hour for each ballot. Dr. C. W. Smith waa the only man noinnated for the editorship of the Pittsburg Advocate. Hi election was practically unanimous. Tho conferenco decided to reconsider the meeting by which tht call for the presentations was shut od on May IS. Keaolnttona Offered. It was decided to have one more full roll call before the introduction of resolutions. A report of the committee on consolidation of benevolence was ehot into the proceedings by a suspension of the regular order. It recommended that the Educational nociety and the Freedmen's aid and southern educational society be not consolidated. The report was adopted and again the friends of consolidation suffered defeat. For editor of the Northern Advocate, printed at Syracuse, X. Y., J. K. C. Sawyer was the only nominee. Before taking the ballot Bishop Merrill announced the result of the ballot for

JiA antW i J s Miss Lettle Huntley, Is the sister of Mr. W. S. Huntley, of Cortland, N. Y., a well known carpenter and builder. Her frank statement below ive3 only the absolute truth concerning her illness and marvelous recovery by the aid of Hood's Sarsaparilla. She says : C. I. Hood St Co., Lowell, Mass. : "Dear Sir: Twelve years ago I began to fcave hemorrhages and four years ago Lecamo o low tliat the physician told me Thoro Was No Hopo and I should soon die. I could not be moved from my bed. Under my face were napkins continually reddened with Mood from my tnoutti. I could rnt nothing sind had no action of the bowel for a week.

editor of the Central Chrütian Advocate, as follows: Dr. Young, 211; Dr. Creierhton, 79; Coxe, C2; Smith, 46; Dr. McElroy, 34; Dr. Marsden, 26; Dr. Goodwin, 18; rest scattering; no election. A second ballot was then taken on the Cm'raf Advocate. A report from the judicial committee was then run in. A question was asked by the bishops relating to the meaning of tbe rules where they proyided that one-third of either order could call for a vote by orders. The question was whether the rules meant one-third of all the members, one-third of ail present, or one-third of all the members yisitine. The committee decided that the rules meant one-third of all tbe members in the house at the time of tho call whether they voted or not. The report was adopted. Tha Flvr-laar Limit. Then the regular order was taken up. It was the discussion of the time-limit resolution touching the itinerancy. The Kev. K. J. Gray of Pennsylvania was oppoped to the abolishment of the five-year limit. It would be drifting toward Congregationalism, he said, and would break up the whole plan of itinerancy. He eaiJ the abolishment of the time limit might help the better class of churches, but would be hard on the weaker churches. It would create an oligarchy despotism, composed of the bishops and presiding elders. He therefore oQered a substitute for the minority report, providing for the submission of the question to the annual conferences. Klder fchank of Nebraska got the floor and made a stirring speech in favor of abolishing the limit on the pastorate. He said the time limit was a corpse and should be buried. Tho second ballot for editor of the Central Advocate was announced. It gave Dr. Jesse 1'iowman Young tho election by a vote of 3'X) ballots out of 462. The conference tooK up the election of an editor for the California Chrixtian Advocate. The nominees were Dr. B. F. Crary, the incumbent, and Dr. AV. S. Matthews, both of California. Trior to taking the ballot Bishop Merrill announced the result of the ballot for editor of the Northern Advocate. Dr. J. E. lawyer was elected by a very large majority. An Inning for Colored Pcsplis Now the colored people were in it. The election of an editor for the Syuth western Christian Advocate interested them deeply. Dr. A. K. P. Albert, editor for the past four years, is a colored man. In fact, it is a paper published especially for the colored method is ts. The Itev. Mr. Shumpert nominated Dr. A. E. P. Albert to succeed himself. The colored delegates had the conference ail to themselves for half an hour. Mr. Knox of Kentucky made a speech that Bailed away into the clouds and part of it never came 'down again. He nominated Dr. E. W. S. Hammond of Kentucky. The contest lay between Dr. Albert and Dr. Hammond. The samples of oratory presented by the colored brethren were very creditable to them. They spoke vigorously and plainly and were heard all over the house. The Imllot was taken and then Mr. Field of Philadelphia got the floor during a ballot which ensued and delivered a scorching little speech in which he deprecated the tendency of some of the delegates to trifle with tho matter of electing olTicial editors. Votes had been cast, he said, that could mean nothing but a joke. Delegates bad voted for Amanda Smith, the colored evangelist, and Mr. Field said he was mortified to think any member of the conference would ridicule this good woman by casting a trivial-ballot with her name upon it. Ho called upon tho delegates to delist from any such nonsense, lie was tiitnultuously applauded. The question of publishing the names of the bishops who received scattering votes for the different editorships waa also discussed. Hutae wanted the names omitted from tho list, but the conference thought that it would not hurt the bishops to pee their names printed in the liest of those receiving votes. Othar Krfltora Klaetad. The election of an editor for the methodist AjmloijfU, the Herman paper published at Cincinnati,1 was taken up. Dr. William Nast, for many years editor of the Apo'otjrte, had decided to retire from the editorial chair. His son. Prof. A. J. Nast, was nominated for the position. Dr. J. I Kestler was also nominated. Prior to taking the ballot Bishop Merrill announced the result of the ballot for the Southwestern Advocate. K. W. 8. Hammond got 241 votes and Dr. Albert 227. Hammond was elected. The ballot for the editorship of the Jjofoye was then takeu. The committee on church extension brouKht in a report favoring the election of an additional eecretary for the work. A minority report also came in recommending that the assistant secretaries be elected. The conference got into a snarl in trying to discuss the recommendationa. Some held that to elect three secretaries instead of one would involve a change in the law of the church, and that would have to lay over one day and be printed. It was finally decided that this was tbe situation and the matter had to be laid over until the next day. A. J. Nast was announced as the successful candidate in the election for editor of the Methoditt Avologete. Dr. A. J. Leibhart was elected editor of the llava und Herd, another German paper. vDr. C. II. Payne was nominated as corresponding eecretary of the board of education. lr. Bridpreman and Dr. L. 15. Noely were also nominated. The ballot waa taken and the conference adjourned. THE PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY. CaoaarvatlTa Wlu tlia Modarator in tha Preliminary Fight. Portland, Ore., May 10. The first day's eeefiion of the prcsbyterian general assembly is at an end and the first contest has been fought. The victory lies with the conservatives by a vote of just five above the majority of three who answered to their names, but not bv a majority of those in the roll. The question thus settled is that of the raoderatorship, and it goes to the president of Cantor college, Danville, Ky., the Por. William C. Young. The fight was a stubborn one, and three ballots were necessary to decide the matter. A M'lrntticant Speach, Elder Junken Keiheldarffor welcomed the newly-elected moderator in a neat fpcech. Dr. Young responded in a epeech which is regarded as eomewhat insignificant. He professed to believe that his election was largely due to geographical reasons and because he held views which are shared by every minister south of tbe Ohio river. He further said that no part of the church is more loyal to the church and its standards than that represented by him. It stands for the bible as that bible is interpreted by this part of the church. Pobtland, Ore., May 20. The session was devoted to the announcement of standing committees, to acting upon matters submitted to the aeiembly and to report appropriate action thereon. The rest of the day ia occupied with reports of committees. In announcing the committees. Moderator Young stated that owing to the large number of candidates for moderatorehip yesterday, the assembly itself bad taken the question of the chair-

Beware of Fpuricus imitations or substitutes at lower prices than above. manship out of his bands. As to the composition of the committees so far as can be judged from casual comment, Moderator Young had exceeded the anticipation of many and has failed to justify the fears of others. He peems to have felt tbe force of the general feeling that he could not afford to pack any committee in any interest, but tbe exact quality of his work can only be ascertained when its actual outcome is apparent. Tbe special committee in charge of the church periodical reported through Dr. Mcintosh of Philadelphia and Dr. Nelson, the editor, addressed to the assembly a resolution enlarging the committee, which was adopted, but a resolution indorsing the periodical met with unexpected opposition. Before a vote was taken the hour of adjournment came and the consideration was postponed till the afternoon eession. The afternoon eession was occupied with reports of the various committees. The recommendation as to the periodical was adopted, that it be condensed, illustrated and made more attractive. The question of tbe 6eal of the assembly which raado euch a etir at Detroit was finally eettled and the seal proposed adopted. The committee on census of creed reported progress and was continued. The Jacksonville, Fla., church case came up a?ain and a final settlement was provided for. The church unity committee reported progress and was continued apparently through indulgence. At 4 o'clock the assembly exhausted is docket and adjourned till Mondav morning. The moderator announced the membership of the various standing committees. The chairmanships were distributed as follows: Bilis and overtures. Dr. Iladcliffe of Detroit: judicial, Dr. T. Ra'ston Smith of Buffalo; home session, Dr. McPhereon of Chicago; foreign missions, Alexander Allison of Philadelphia; education. Dr. Dr. Leggett of Kahway; . publication, Dr. iSample of New York; church erection, Dr. Holmes of Albany theological seminary, Dr. Hutchmore of Philadelphia; ministerial relief, Dr. KobJnson of Allegheny; freedmen, Dr. Sutherland of Knoxville; aid for colleges, Dr. Alexander of San Francisco; correspondence, Dr. Blaeney of Kentucky ; benevolence, Dr. Wallace of Lewinton, Pa. ; narrative of the etate of religion, Kev. Dr. Worrell of Keokuk; temperance, Dr. Kinger of Ohio. Portland, Ore., May 21. There is no pession of the general presbvterian assembly today. Karly this morning an excursion party left ou a visit up tho Columbia river to the Cascades. The judicial committee before which tho Brings caso is to come, and upon whose finding and recommendations the assembly will bo called to act, ia by no means unanimous, and apparently cannot bo brought to unite in its findings. Therewill.it is eaiJ, certainly be a minority report, and it will be in favor of tha appellants in the caso. A member of tho minority etated that not only was the committee not likely to agree in its findings, but it is likely to be quite discordant in ita recommendations. Tho question at preseut to be considered in not the iuerits of the case, but the technicalities involved. Prominent ollicials contend the only question to be decided by the committee is whether an appeal is in order and to report its finding, to arrange papers and to prescribe tbe mode of procedure. The member mentioned above went on to criticise the work of the moderator in appointing 6uclt a committee, and when asked what that was said the majority should at last have been conservative, explaining that conservative meant anti-Briggs. What this meant, if the question is strictly one of law and not of doctrine, was not gone into. The position of many on the question at leeue between the Lnion seminary and tho assembly waa expressed by one, who remarked: "I could grow eloquent, had I the ability, on the history of the seminary. We honor, love and esteem it, and our highest desire is to serve the church, but we want to get rid of Briggs." When aked what would be done if both could not be obtained bo remarked that it was an unpleasant alternative. As it was evident at Detroit, fear of "losing" the seminary is, in a sence, the only restraining influence at work, Kven safeguards of constitutional rights would not apparently avail with men thus among them. The appellants in the Brings case are leaving no stone unturned and are sparing no expense to gain this end. They have cauned all their documonts Jo be printed in a stout octavo volume, including the records of the presbyteries touching the case. Thtso volumes are kept Becurely guarded so that they shall cot fall into other bands until the matter has been duly presented in open eession. The coming of Dr. Briggs, which was announced some days ago, caused some stir at the time, but all have settled back into a etate of quiet expectancy. Why ho was coming was a problem bard of solution to many, but it seems evident that reasons were well taken. He will have to appear before the assembly to sliow cause why an appeal ia not in order if it shall be decided that the appeal is a judicial case, and if that position is assumed be is tbe only man who has a right to appear on tho floor. Tann; Paopla'e Coaaantlan. East Liverpool, O., May 20. The fourth annual meeting of the Young People's convention of the United presbyterian denomination met in this city today. J. S. McCampbell, M.

MORE EVIDENCE OF WORSE THAN GROSS NEGLIGENCE. EDtMih Armr Offleara ZlD tha Baraan Ltka n English Convict Camp Wiekad Wnata f aianaj Mr a. Ilarrlaan'a Ilaalth 'awa (ram tbe Capital. Washington', May 21. The census office investigation was resumed today and J. Fraize Richards, a discharged clerk from the division of wealth, debt, taxation and local government in the census office, testified to what he regarded as a large number of instances of mismanagement and waste of the public money in that division The chief, whose name was T. C. Campbell Copeland, had been an officer in the English army and conducted the office as he would an English convict station, lecturing the force in a class and hectoring them. Owing to his lack of knowledge of our institutions he gave directions to ascertain various impracticable things, which took up the time of clerks and after a waste of money had to be abandoned. For instance, he caused an exhaustive examination to be made of all etate laws to ascertain how many of the states had laws for the imprisonment of mothers of bastard children until they revealed the name of the child's father. He estimated that $25,000 or $30,000 had been thrown away in printing worthless papers on this subject. In the section relating to school statistics, after the expenditure of $35,000 or $40,000 a lot of material collected under the supervision of Mrs. Ellen II. Walworth, was thrown away. L. C. Herr of Minnesota, who6ucceeded Mrs. Walworth, estimated the waste at $33,000 in conversation with witness. A large quantity of printed material found its way to the junk shop, and he thought at least $100,000 had been wasted in this division, ostensibly as a benetit for a deserving woman, but reaily for the glorification of tbe chief. The clerks wer kept posing for two or three hours while an artist went through and took pictures of the employes to illustrate a magazine article prepared by Mrs. Copeland on the work of his division. The witness related a trouble which occurred over the publication of an article criticising Copeland as an alien, and incompetent. Copeland lectured the division for it and, selecting the widow of a captain in the union army, accused her of ita authorship and endeavored to get information from her. There was trouble between witness and Mr. Copeland over it, and witness placed an American flag inscribed, "Protection to American Industries" on a platform in his office as a protest against Mr. Copeland. Witness was next assigned to the agricultural division. He found that when enumerators returned statistics stating that a farmer produced eo much sugar, the clerks were told to alter the schedules and put in as so much molasses, aa it must be assumed they also produced molasses. Aleo if a farmer returned molasses, sugar was to be inserted, tie protested that there was no reliance to be placed in the manufacturing statistics, and that the farmers at least ought to be corresponded with, if there was to be a semblance of reliability. The testimony of the witness showed that he bad considerable trouble in the office and finally he was dismissed. lO CONFISCATE PENSIONS. Tha Flan Fropotad by tba Managera of tlia aldlara 11" me. BrREAüor The Sentinel, 1420 New iork-ave.. N, w., ay 21. ) Washington, D. C, May There wt3 quite an exciting debate in the house today in the committee of the whole duiing the consideration of that part of the sundry civil appropriation bill relating to soldiers' homes. The occasion was an amendment olfered by Mr. Forney directing the national board of managers to withhold from members of the homes all cf their pensions, except $5 per month, and apply ail over that sum for the expenses of the institution. Mr. Forney stated in the debate that this amendment was offered bv him oa the recommendation of the' national board of managers, of which (ien. Franklin is president. Maj. George W. Steele of Marion, lud., is local manager of the branch home at the latter place. The debate in favor of tbe amendment was led by Mr. Forney, joined by Mr. Hull (la.) and others. Tbe opposition was led in debate by Mr. Martin (Ind.), and he was aided by Mr. Pearson (O.) and Mr. Houk (O.) and others. Mr. Martin took the ground that a soldier's pension washn own property and could not be taken from him ;that the amendment would reach only those receiving more than $lö a month not only the soldiers already in the homes, but poor men who may hereafter want to enter. Although a small majority seemed to favor the amendment in the committee of the whole, Metsrs. Martin, Pvnum, Hoi in an and many others announce their intention to try and defeat it when it comes up in the house on a yea and nay vote, ana they feel confident that they will succeed. MRS.

In view of the many conflicting and in some instances alarming reports which have recently appeared concerning the condition of Mrs. Harrison's health. Dr. F. A. Uardner, her physician, was requested by the Associated Prees to state the facts. Ho said that Mrs. Harrison was suffering from complete nervous exhaustion, which was the indirect result of three years of attention to tbe exacting social duties of the white house. Late in February of this year Mrs. Harrison had an attack of la grippe. It waa particularly eevere and tenacious, and from it developed bronchitis. While in this condition she caught cold, and this brought on bronchial pneumonia. Other severe and trying complications followed. Low malarial fever set in and it was several days before ita weakening and wasting force could be broken, and hardly bad she begun to mend before an attack of rheumatism added its exhausting and enervating influences to what had preceded it.

Agent, Indianapolis, Ind. IT RESPECTS TUE LAW. Tha Lottary Cobimi'( Oosd Faith. IWathiogtoa telegram to Globe Democrat The New Orleans postmaster, Capt. S. M. Eaton, is a little, smooth-faced man, honest and shrewd. He is a great friend of Warmoth, but he has backed up the Postmaster-General's eüorts vigorously in tbe fight on the lottery. The year before the warfare began Mr. Eaton says the Lottery Company bought at the New Orleans office $103,000 worth of stamps and stamped envelopes. For that same year the total revenue of the office was $416.000. So it appears that the Lottery Company contributed within $1,000 of one-fourth of the entire revenue of the office. By the action of the department in enforcing the anti-lottery law passed by congress this postal revenue from the lottery company became a dad loss. Last year's receipts bv the New Orleans office reached a total of $352,000. Tbe day before Capt. Eaton started to this conference the lottery company posted in all its branch offices in New Orleans a notice to this effect : "The Supreme Court of the United States having decided the anti-lottery postal law to becoiistitutional,it is hereby ordered and directed that no one in tho employ of this company ehall mail a letter which in any way refers directly or indirectly to the business of the lottery. It must be understood that this company will aid in the enforcement of this law." "I think that this notice ia honest and eincere," said Capt. Eaton, "and the company means just what it Bays."
