Correspondence.

FROM WASHINGTON. An Interesting BfUch of New* From the Capitol. From our Regular Correspondent. Washington, Sept. 21, 1894. Will the forced resignation of Mr. Jeremiah O’Rourke, Supervising Architect of the Treasury, cause a great political scandal? Many believe that it will, and Mr, O’Rourke’s talk is calculated to increase their number. While he has made no direct changes he says that the asking for his resignation was the result of a conspiracy to force him out ol the office, adding significantly: “As long as I stay at the head of the Supervising Architect’s office I propose to run it straight. If I had been willing to go into deals with the contractors and iivide up with them, there would i ave been no difficulty about my remaining in office.” That is ery serious talk, and if there bf .ny ground for the implied harge it contains, somebody o ight to be shown up and puni - > it be merely the result of sure-headedness at having to give up $4,5u0 a year, Mr. O’Rourke is the party who deserves the punishment. But he doesn’t stop there. He intimates that at least two of his predece.s sors—Potter and Windrim found themselves forced to re sign or wink at irregularities Tne importance of this matter is great. The Supervising Architect’s office has charge of all tht work upon every public building in course of construction throughout the United Stales, and it is a grave thing to intimate Ghat contractors for this work have power enough to force the head of that office out of public life. The reason given out at the Treasury for the Secretary’s asking for Mr. O'Rouke’s resignation i® the long continued friction between him and his chief clerk, and the chief of the law and contract division of his office, which kept the business of the office disturbed all the time. The two officials who couldn’t gee with Mr. O’Rourke are Kentuckians and personal friends of Secretary Carlisle.

Neither the republican nor the democratic Congressional committees have taken any decided position on the silver question; they both tell candidates for Congress that it is a matter for them to settle individually to suit themselves. Consequently there are democratic candidates making their canvass as friends of free coinage and as opponents, a<d H is just the same with the republicans. In this connection the views of Senator Roach, of North Dakota, are interesting. He says: “The all important question in my state is finance. The tariff and all things else are of little importance, compared with silver. The populists, who have a strong organization in the state, are out for free coinage, while neither of the oid parties are-thoroughly committed on the question. The republicans will try to satisfy the silver people with some sort of expression friendly to silver, and the demo crats cannot afford to take any halfway position. The silver question is bound to be the vital

issue in the west, and the democratic party must come out squarely on it. The tariff can no longer be a leading issue. The western people are for silver, without regard to the attitude of either party, and the situation is such as to r< n’ » a readjustment of party linp= probable. In my state a fn 1 stale ticket is to he elected, and the Senate branch of the legislature holds over for four years, and will participate in the elec lion of Sena-or Hansbrough's successor. The three parties are therefore making a hard tight for the legislature, and the populists are strpng en9ugh nQt>

to be without hope of getting the next Senator.” • • • The first step towards getting the sugar bounty before the courts was taken here this week when a Louisiana firm engaged n growing sugar cane and making 6ugar applied to the court fora mandamus to compel Secretary Carlisle to have their plant inspected so as to enable them to collect the bounty on the s igar produced from this year’s crop of cane. The petition was presented to Judge McComas, who directed Secretary Carlisle to show cause on October 4, next, why the mandamus should not issue as prayed. The argument is looked forward to with much interest, although it is thought that a much stronger case can be made for the best sugar mak ers, who have been refused the bounty on sugar that was made oefore the bounty was repealed.

• • • The Civil Service Commission wish to show that all information c mcerning the scope and character of the various examinations for appointment to Federal office may be obtained free by making application direct to the 'ion. Certain parties in Washington and elsewhere have been trading on the credulity of candi* latesfor examination byjnaking i charge for this information which may just, as easily be ob iined for nothing by writing rent to the Civil Service Commission, Washington, D.

Obituary.

Ira Chase Kelley was born in Preble county, Ohio, Sept. 10, 1825, and died in Rensselaer, Friday, Sept. 21, 1894, aged 69 years and eleven days. His earlier years were spent near the place of his birth, in the acquirement of the proses sion which he practiced during his residence in this place. He was one of the early pion eers, having crossed the plains in the year 1849, where he re mained until he entered the army, being engaged in protecting the frontier from depredations of the Indian tribes. He was married at Richmond, Ind., on April 10, 1867, to Agnes 0. Strain, and four sons and three daughters were the result of this union. One daughter has preceeded him to his Heavenly home, and the widow and remaining children are left to mourn his loss. He connected himself with the Presbyterian church about five years ago, retaining that membership up to the time of his death. He was also a member of the G. A. R. and Masonic Fraternities. The funeral services were held S tbbath morning at 11:30 at the home of the the deceased, and c mducted by Revs. Utter and Baech. A large company of friends followed the remains to the cemetery, where the interment was conducted under Masonic Ritual.

The family have the sympathy of many friends in their deep sorrow. But for the peace and comfort of the soul, may they ever continue to look to the ‘ Father of mercies and the God of all comfor^” Chas. A. Dana, editor of the New York Sun, will be the subject of a very comprehensive and interesting biographical study, by Edward P. Mitchell, Mr. Dana’s chief associate on The Sun, in McClure’s Magazine for October. The story of Mr. Dana’s connection with Brook Farm, and of his sc: vi- * during the war as Assistant Secretary of War under Lincoln and Stanton. will be told with especial fullness. Views of his office at The Sun and of his country home on Long Island, and a very interesting series of portraits of him, will accompany the article,

The Fair.

That the Fair will be superior in point of interest to any enterprise ever engaged in by the members of St. Augustine’s Congregation is evident, from the fact that some of the most prominent men of the town have consented to take an active part in it. Messrs. John Eger and Frank Meyer have entered into a contest for a gold watch, which will be awarded to the one who will be declared the most popular business man of the town, by a majority of votes. Thus Messrs. Spitler and D. Nowels will test the sentiment of the people in regard to politics, and see which of the two is the is most popular, politician. A fine cane will be awarded to the one representing the party considered most popular by a majority of votes. Then Messrs. Michael Nagle and James Walters will compete for the honor of being the most popular member of St. Augustine’s Congregation. The one obtaining the honor will also be the receiver )f a gold watch. The Misses Ura McGowan and Maggie Healy iaboring under a serious doubt as to the one enjoying the greater popularity, have concluded to let the decision to the public. The most popular of the two will he presented with a fine ring. Nothing is left, undone by the lifferent committees, that can in any way contibHto towards the success of the Fair. Comical plays are being prepared for those who are fond of having a rood laugh, and dialogues and recitations for such who prefer something literary. A good time will be procured for every one attending.
