EXTORTIONATE FEES.

Aa Abas? thit 2is Groxa Up in the Various United Sates Caurti' - EOW THE CURKS SCXD U THEIR BILLS. Ecu. J- P. S tells Enen:3 Endeavoring to DatiM H s appointment as Public Printer. A lrl.-lility that Juilc Holman's Name Will (let Into Webster' Dictionary Ti Money of the Government Wted Personal Mention. Wamcmjtox. May 23 The Department of Justice and Comptroller Durham hare joined hand? and are deter .mined to reform many abases that have grown up in the matter of fees in the various United States courts of the country. A great many people have been hit with this reform club, and come more probably will be hit. One alleged Sbuse of considerable magnitude is the laethods by which some of the clerks who Lave been longest in office have devised. "Wra. E Singletcn, Clerk of the Eastern district of Texas, sect in his bill as follows: For recording in the Court minutes a sepsaate rep3rt of the attendance and travel of each juror and witness, fifteen cents each. Tor nniins copy ef separate orders of the Court fw the Marshal to pay each witness andjn-or ten cents. For ! "hir.g a certificate on each of those Copie?. : '-en cents each. lie t1 put the seal of his office on each tl the? . ;!icate copies and charged twenty cents fi - h copy for this. All t. ' r.s up sixty cents for each juror Bad n'. .. and makes a very handsome Rum fo- Clerk during the year. The a oi.nting ofiicers of the Treasury disallowed i i- c charges, on the ground that ihere W3- no necessity of making separate Tecord of attendance of each juror and witness, and that sirjply a certified list handed io the Marshal is all that is necessary. Instead of making it cost the Government sixty c -:ts for each juror or witness at a term o t mrf. it is Leid that twenty-five cents is n I thit is neotss-ary fcr all of them logettier 2lr. Singleton has gone into the Court of nairLs, and claims that he is entitled to ' e entire amount of his bill. K. ('. I: ..; er is the clerk of both the District an i i Ti i'.it Co :rt at Indianapolis. This s a larr ci-rrkt. and the fees are more than - ",'&), tie maximum salary for the office. t the Circuit Court lia-i few fees attached - "L II? accordingly charges all the per - - m fo- attendance of court to the Circuit ,urt fi.:id. If he charged half of it, as the i ccountinsj officers hold that he should do, ,o the District Court., tint sum would be turned in'o the Treasury instead of his own pocket. Dut'er threatens also to jo to the Court of Claims. I!. S Miie'd?, the new District Attorney for übrthem Ohio, lives in Canton, O., and the court is located at Cleveland and Toledo. He has been sending in mileage for every time lie has g'jne from his home to the place of bolding court. This has been disallowed, and he has been told that he must fix upon Cleveland as his official residence, and that le will only be allowed mileage when he goes from there to some other point to hold court. These are typical cases. There are many xnore like them. Jndge Holman. Special to the Sentinel. Washington, May 23. The Tost of to-day prints the following editorial : C Judge Hoiman's name will get into Webster's Dictionary if he doesn't look out. illany of the reckless Republican papers are inclined to use the new verb "to holman be," and they assert that tb vrtchful member from Indiana is "Ilolmanizing legislation." The fact is that the charge is true. He keeps economizing wherever he can in the most reckless fashion. In reporting the Appropriation bill from his committee, he lopped off 225 Government employes. If he keeps it up the dictionary will be amended in its next edition as thus: Holmany, n. Fxugality; retrenchment; inclination to cut down expense, and dispense with sinecures. Iiolmaniz. v. To economize; to retrench any way, whether you can or not; to protect the Treasury against all comers. Holmanistic, adj. Tendency to holmanIze; severe economical bias. Holmanomically, adv. In a holmanistic manner; after the fashion of holmanizers. Probably he can stand It, and perhaps the Treasury can stand it, if the Republican party can tand it. btoll's Chances for Public Printer. Bp:Ial to the Sentinel. 'yVashisctox, May 23. For the first time il is learned the President had other reasons llitn those named for not appointing Colonel J. B. .sto!l Public Printer. Kecent development i go to show that objections to Mr. JStoIl are found in bis participations in the recent Indiana Editorial Convention, which, according to the Scott Hay resolution, severely criticised the policy of the administration. The President has the Idea that Jlr. Sioll favored the adoption of the resolution and indorsed the sentiments embraced 5n Colonel Pay's speech. The enemies of Jlr. Stoll are making a mountain out of a mole hill, and hope to defeat his appointment. The full proceedings of the meeting as printed occupy a page in the Executive pcrap book, and about every new moon Colonel I.amont is asked to read it a'oud to bis worthy sire. It is supposed an appointment will be made about the 1st of July, ani the list of applicants up to the present time pnmber sixteen, with several States yet to Xiear from. Colonel Hughes Kant Appointment. Precis! to the BentineL "Whisgtos, May 21. The name of Coif riel Hughes East, Secretary to the late .Vice President Hendricks, was to day sent lo the Senate, being appointed to the office pf Pe-ister of Public Lands at Yankton, Pak. The office is a good one, with more revenue than that of Secretary of either of the Territories, to which position the Colonel b:id expressed a preference for. It Is a commendable recognition of Mr. East, nd the fulfillment of promises repeatedly Tnade to him and his friends by the ad min is tration, which was desirous of assigning him lo a place commensurate with his qualifica tiocs aad worthiness. He will enter 9a his

duties July 1. About two weeks hence, with bis family, he will go to Indiana, ani after a visit there of about the same length of time, the journey to the future scenes of his newly-acquired home will be continued, arriving at Yankton about the 20th proximo. Mr. I'endleton Will Come Home. Special to the Sentinel. Washington, May 21. The death of Mrs. Pendleton will be a great shock to Washingington society, In whose circles she was so well-known. In official circles it is not believed that Mr. Pendlet on will resign his foreign mission, although those who know him well, personally, shake their heads and say it is more than likely. One of Mr. Pendleton's daughters is with him in Berlin. His son is practicing law in New York. The only other child is the young lady who was with Mrs. Pendleton yesterday, and who was severely injured in the same accident in which her mother met her death. It is expected Mr. Pendleton will return to his home immediately and remain there until his daughter recovers. Not a Very Active Mind. Epetfal to the Sentinel. Washington, May 21. Representative Hewitt seldom sleeps. A few nights ago he sat in the lobby of the Arlington with his head bowed and his feet on the topmost round of the nearest chair. A dandified young man stepped up to him with a fresh, self-confident air. ''Ha, Mr. Hewitt," he said, "how d'ye do? I thought you were going to sleep on the chair. I often wonder," Le continued, "why some people find It so difficult to fcleep. It is the easiest thing in the world when you know how. I can go to sleep any time and rise any time when I want to catch an early morning train or meet an early engagement. I caa wake to the moment without any alarm. When I go to bed I don't lie awake thinking, I go to sleep right away; never lose anyjtime thinking." "Ah," said Mr. Hewitt, who had been listening without saying a word and trying in vain to chase the young man with a look. "Ab, I see your mind is not very active, is it 7" Then Mr. Hewitt resumed conversation with his New York friends and the young man shuilled away. IMPORTANT MEASURES

That Will he Considered tu Congress the Present Week. Washington, May 23. The morning hours of the Senate during the week will probably be occupied in work upon the miscellaneous calendar. The bankrupt bill is the unfinished business, and will be laid before the Senate at 2 o'clock. Sometime during the day Senator Plumb will ask that the pending business be laid aside and the District of Columbia Appripriation bill betaken up and psssed. Probably the Military Academy Appropriation bill, already once reported and recommitted, will again be reported and rassed before the end of the wee. If the Caucus Committee's order of business is fol lowed, the DesMoines liiyer Land bill and open executive session resolution will be taken up in turn after the Rank run tcy bill is disposed of. Senators Sewel and Van Wyck will, however, make attempts to set aside this order ot business, the former to call up the Fitz John Porter bill, and the litter ask ing consideration of the bill for taxing rail road lands. The Dunn Free Ship bill and General Ap propriation bills will occupy the attention of tne .Mouse during the present weefc. The Legislative Appropriation bill will be taken up to-morrow after the call of States for the introduction of bills, and its consideration will be interrupted Tuesday and Wednesday by debate on the Free Ship bill. Thursday will be consumed in general discussion of the Legislative bill, and it is probable that the week will expire with this measure still before the House. During the morning hours, if such there should be, the strength of the bill providing for a new naval establishment will be tested indirectly in the disposition made of the resolution to fix certain days for its consideration. The report of the Committee on Civil Service Reform on the Jeffersonville levee investigation may be called up for action about the middle of the week, but will be quickly disposed of. FATAL ACCIDENT. Death of the Wife of Ex-Senator Ceorge 11. Pendleton In New York City. New York, May 20. Mrs. Alice Tendleton, sixty-one years of age, wife of ex-Senator George H. Pendleton, of Ohio, and present Minister to Rerlin, was thrown from her carriage while driving in Central Tark this ajternoon. The result was a compound frac ture of the skull and concussion of the brain, from which she died ten minutes after the accident. Mrs. Pendleton came from Rerlin less than two months ago with her daughter, Miss Jane Francis Pendleton to attend the funeral of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Frank Fendleton, who lived at No. 103 East Thirtyfifth street. Since the funeral of young Mrs. Pendleton the old lady and Miss Jane bad remained with Mrs. Pendleton's son, who is a well known lawyer of this city. It had been their practice sine coming to New York to take a livery on Thursdays. Following this custom, they engaged a Victoria and drove this afternoon. As they were proceeding through the Central Park the horses became unmanagalle and ran away, dragging the driver from his seat. The park police affirm thai when the horses bolted, the ladies be coming friehtened, leaped from the carriage, one from each side. The Park officer who first reached her found her dead. The daughter, a little distance away, lay unconscious upon the ground. She was taken up and carried to the Presbyterian Hospital. The body of Mrs. Pendleton was borne to the Arsenal Station in the Park, and thance after an in quest to the home of her son. The verdict of the Coroner's Jury was in accordance with the facts stated and exonerated the driver who had been arrested. The young lady's condition at 12 o'clock to-night was still that of unconsciousness with doubts as to her re covery. "I find a ready sale for your Athlophoros, and each customer recommends it to his neighbor." writes C. F. Xtmmerman, a drug gist of Terre Haute, Ind., in giving his testi monial to the merits 01 the great remedy lor rheumatism.

SHE HAD TO SEE HIM DIE

Tho Hornbla Dilemma of & Wife Ths Freik of a Drunken Husband. David Scott Atkinson Takes a Fatal Dose of Morphine in His Wife's Presence, and Threatens Xler With Death if She Interfere. IChlcago News, Mar 22.1 A suicide occurred early yesterday morn ing in a lodging house at 16 South Clark street, under exceptionally peculiar circumstances. Among the roomers at the place was David Scott Atkinson, a North Side saloon keeper, and his wife. For some time Atkinson had been afflicted with species of melancholia, and recent business reverses, together with a dark suspicion of his wife's fidelity, had contributed to aggravate his malady. He was subject to frequent fits of depression, during which he would drink heavily. His behavior during these spells was most violent, and his wife 1 elates that on one such occasion the strength of twelve men was taxed to control him. ff When he was despondent he invariably did two things. He refused to eat ani he abused his wife. Not two weeks ago, in the same room in which the tragedy of yester day occurred, he excitedly charged his wife with unfaithfulness, and threatened to kill her. Losing control of himself he hurled a revolver at her in his madness, and he was only prevented from attacking her by the timely appearance of neighbors, whom Mrs, Atkinson's outcries had awakened. Since that night he had been especially gloomy and irafcible. He was going to the dogs, be said, and he didn't care how soon he got there. His wife had seen him in a similar frame of mind so often, however. that she did not especially mark his conver sation or his conduct, lie had been drinking during the entire week past, and on Thursday he drank heavily all day. His wife was, therefore, somewhat surprised when at 2 o'clock yesterday morning he came in an apparently pleasant frame of mind. He spoke to ner with unwonted kindness, undressed leisurely and got into bed. He neglected, however, to tum out the light. Dave, are yon going to leave that light buroir ;'."' asked ' 11 wife. 1 es he rep: lt d shortly : ""I ve something to att d to." TLt-i legotO' of bed. t'jok a small par cel out of one f ' bet of Ijis clothes, a knife out of another, ...... ai). calmly: "This is morphine, Tbtie- v dear. I am going to take a doee tbst v 1 going to lie right ! to bell. You will 1. shall be compelled tn 'id me. and you are and watch me go inperfectly still, or 1 i ill you. I am about to punish you as a v never, never was punished by her hm'id before." vclatmed Mrs. Atkin"My liOrd, Dave: son, sitting up in bei apprehension, "don' yourself here. Let 1 in wild affright and do that. Don't kill out. at least, so that 3 , t won 1 nave 10 see jv i uie. "1 es, and you w 1 1 call for help and I 1 finished job of this," won t be able to mak said her husband, ds . . glance at her. "Oh ing a furtive, cunning no," he contiued, imt know me. 1 have perturtaly, "you doii made up my mind to die, and die lam going to. 1 ou shall see me draw my last breath." Having taken a large quantity of the drug he laid the caoer on the chair by the bed. and solemnly delivered the following antemortem speech to his terrified wife: "iheresa, 1 am going to die. 1 ou will miss me. 1 ou think that I have been a cruel and jealous husband, but you have not loved me as a v lie should. 1 ou have not been true to me. I am goiDg to punish you." At this point airs. Atkinson interrupted: "Dave, for God's sake let me up! Let me leave the room," she cr.ed. No, you lay still and don t talk so loud no one must hear me," was the suicide's imperative response. Atkinson then got into bed, and his wife attempted to get out. "No, you don't" he said, stopping her; "you lay still if you don t want to go to h 1 with me. I shouldn't like to kill you if I can help it." 1 hen he suddenly got out of bed again, saying: "1 hat dose wasn t strong enoughguess I'll take another," and with that he de liberately took some six or seven grains more of morphine. After placing his revolver under his pillow he sat down on the edge of the bed and held up the door-key, which he had kept in his hand all the time, triumph antly to his wife. "Say, wife, wouldn't you like to get this key ?" he said. Iiis spouse replied by grabbing dexterous ly at the key. Quicker than thought the morphine eater hurled her back across the bed and savagely told her that if she made another such at tempt he would kill her as he would a dog. pV'Don't try me that way again," he con tinued, glaring at her luridly; "I haven t any too much love for you, and if you fool with me again all h 1 won t save you. 1 ou have got to see me die, and you might as well make up your mind to it. Guess I ain't taken enough yet. Then the man stood up and emptied the re mainder of the morphine into his mouth. The three tremendous doses of the deadly drug now began their work. The victim lay down on the bed, stretched himself at full length, and breathed hard and irregularly. Feeling for the key, he clasped both hands about it, and held it with all his remaining strength. He gazed fixedly at the ceiling. "I am gome, Theresa," he said, m an un steady voice. "I am goiner. You will be sorry when I am dead. You will find the money in the vault. The watches are there, too. So are my rings. I don't owe anybody. You can have them all. I hadn't ougnt to leave you anything. I ought to kill you. Rut this will be punishment enough. This will last you forever. You will never forget this night. You will never forget my dying words my dying breath. I have been a bad man at times but you will miss me and wish me back . Good-by Theresa good by Theresa I'm going ." Then his breath fell short, he whispered unintelligibly, tried to speak, and became unconscious. His wife, snaking with fear and horror, called to him, grasped his bands, unloosed them, seized the key, unlocked the door and rushed into the hall screaming. In a moment she had summoned the landlady and her husband to the scene. The unconscious man breathed at intervals, but before medical aid could be summoned he was dead. "It all fee med like a pleasant dream to him," (aid his wife afterward, ' but it was a horrible nightmare to me. God knows I never want to pass through another such pcene. I am near forty years old, but I feel fifty to day." A PARIS TRAGEDY. Senftatioaal Suicide of a Bridegroom I nder Unaccountable Circumstances. Paris, May 20. A domestic drama with a tragic ending has just made a great sensation in the busy quarter of the Faubourg du Temple. On Saturday a merry party met at a bouse in the Rue Saint Maur to celebrate the marriage of the daughter of a working tradesman and a respectable clerk. The bride was pretty and the bridegroom a steady, hard working man. The young couple seemed deeply in love with one another, and the marriage bid fair tobe abappyone. After dining heartily the wedding guests had a dance, and about midnight, when, according to the custom of the petite bourgeoisie of Paris, the bride had received the kisses of all present, she reurea, witu her husbamt her new uoae,

near by. her father promising to wake her about 12 o'clock the next day. At noon precisely the father knocked at the door of the nuptial chamber and invited the young people to come to dejeuner with him. The husband, who was apparently in high spirits, accepted, but asked his wife to go on without him, promising that he would follaw immediately. Time passed, and 1 o'clock struck, then 2, but yet no sign of the bridegroom. Getting alarmed, the wife and her father went to look for him, and had just reached his house when a cab drove up, followed by a crowd of people. Dreading misfortune, the bride rushed to the cab and looked in, and the next moment, uttering a cry of horror, she fainted. On a seat in the cab lay the body of her dead husband, sho: through the head. Beside him lay a letter, cn which he had scrawled the following worJs: I am resolved. I write thU tn the Boulevard de t&bastopol. I have hired a ia and hope I shall net miss my aim. Henry J. Rue Saint Maur. On a separate sheet he had added: "Let them bury me quickly and cheaply and let my mother and father-in-law break the news to my wife. Farewell." No clew whatever can be discovered to the tragedy. The widow is beside herself with despair and has to be constantly watched lest, like her husband of a day, she should also commit suicide.

CHICAGO ANARCHISTS. StUMittional Developments Made to the (rand Jnry. Chicago, May 23. A moraine paper published to-day what purports to be the testimony of Captain öchaack yesterday before the Giand Jury in relation to the instigators of ihe recent Ilaymarket slaughter. This testimony as printed is sens it ion al in the extreme, but not incredible, and it is anticipated that the developments of the next few days will prove the truth of much of it. Captain Schaack is said to have told the jury the following facts resulting from the investigations of the police department: He had witnesses to prove the prisoner Llngg had manufactured a number of dynamite bombs from material obtained at the office of the Arbeiter Ztitung. Three persons were associated with Lingg, one of whom was under arrest. The second section of the Captain's testimony, it is said, was listened to with breathless silence. "I think," said Schaack, "that I have got to the bottom of this business. In a couple of days I will have it all. Rut I want a little more time. TheD I can prove beyond a doubt that this Anarchist conspiracy has ex isted here for years. There are two divisions of it. One is an agitating section. Money is set apart for its purposes. This is called "the Socialist Section. Resides this there is an armed party an Anarchist Section. These drill and are trained in the use of explosives. I think 1 can prove that there was a well laid plan to sack and burn districts in Chicago May 4. It would have been carried out but that the Anarchists lacked nerve and were unprepared for the vigorous action of the police. Men were toled off to set fire to certain houses in the northwestern portion of the city, and others were toled off to throw bombs at the meeting if the police attempted to disperse it I think I can eonnect every man of the Socialists now in jail with this. The houses to be burned in the northwestern section of the city were to be fired indiscriminately. The purpose of the burning was to attract the attention of the police to that section and to draw them away from the main points of attack, the Ha market square and the police stations. The early dispersal of the crowd in the square, the premature throwing of the bomb, for it was prematura, and the de termined resistance of the police frightened the would-be incendiaries and those who were to attack the police barracks in' detail." A luror asked where the witnesses to prove this conspiracy were. "In the lockup ct the police stations," Schaak replied. "I can produce as many of them before the Grand Jury as may ue deemed wise and necessary. They have con fessed their complicity to me. 1 have explained to the State's attorney and I am acting under his Instructions." An Astonishing Yield of Oats. There was a reunion at the Louisiana Hotel, Saturday, of Messrs. Montgomery and Bettys, lucky holders 01 Capital Prize tickets in the Ijomsiana State Lottery. Here were two men whose combined wealth only a short time ago waa only a few hundred dollars; now it reaches high in the thousands in valuable real estate which they purchased with the money they drew, respectively, in the drawings of April, lst, and November, 1883. Mr. Montgomery, who invested $'J,500 in a desir able farm one mi!- from Mt. Sterling, in forms us that he tsi-ed a good crop last year, consisting of lO.txi" pounds of tobacco, for which be has l 1 offered cents per pound; 5K) bushel -f corn; and from two bushels of a new v riety of oats (which he procured in Philb ielnhia) sown on three acres, harvested 200 dozen bundles. As many as twenty-seven stalks sprouting from one grain, some measuring nve leet in length, the heads alone measurinz two feet. Some idea of the value of these oaU may be formed, when we say that Mr. M. was oflered $KJ for his last year's product. He has sixteen acres sown this spring. The value of Mr. Montgomery's last year's products may be safely estimated at $1,000. In addition to his Blue Grass farm, he purchased a valuable tract of land in Robertson, on which his brothers are raising matchless crops of tobacco, besides other products. And the splendid possessions of these men were secured by the investment of $1 in the liOuisiana State Lottery! bureiy tue old maxim, "Truth is stranger than fiction," holds good in these instances. Mt. Olivet (Ky.) Tribune, May 13. Anarrhista Jailed. St. Lons, May 23. The anarchists, F. II. Bergemann, Martin Frank, Otto Fricke and Gottleib JaborosskI, for whom warrants were issued yesterday, were arrested to-day and jailed to await trial on the charge of having incited and urged the adoption of, at an unlawful assemblage, resolutions indorsing the actions of tbe anarchists during the Haymarket riot in Chicago. It had been stated previously to their arrest by a detective who was working on the case that these men knew more concerning the whereabouts of the noted Chicago agitator, Parsons, than they cared to reveal. This detective states that he knows positively that rarsons Eased through a small town in Northern !ansas soon after tbe riot, with th intention of escaping to Canada, but was obliged to change his course on account of the serious delay to travel by washouts on the- railroads, and started for the South, passing through this city on the way and conferring with his brethren while here. If this should prove to be the truth of the matter the arrests made here to-day are important, and tends to substantiate the statement tel egraphed from Florida that Parsons had been seen there, presumably on his way to Cuba. Killed by a Tramp. Ixhisville, May 23. Moses Dawson, a drunken colored tramp, refused to pay his fare on the Owensboro and Hashville Road to-night, and was ejected by Conductor Thomp?on and the passengers near Russelville, Ky. As the train moved off Dawson jumped on the platform and began firing his revolver through the crowded coach. Seven shots were fired, and A.G. Clinton, a farmer, received three of them, being fatally wounded. All the others struck the seats and did no damage. Dawson was captured and taken to jail. There is much indignation and some talk of lynching. Neuralgia and kindred diseases promptly yield to the Immediate action of St. Jacobs , Oil, the paiö conqueror.
