WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S.-In regard to the
fifty dollar counterfeit United States Treasury
note lately discovered at Chicago, United
States Treasurer Gilfillan says that the
Assistant Treasurer, in reporting the discov-
cry of this supposed counterfeit, failed to
state whether it was printed on filagree paper
or not. He telegraphed him to know which.
He replied, 1T is printed on exactly same
kind of fibrous paper that genuine notes are. =
Mr.. Gilf1llan says that he believes the note
to be genuine. Should it so prove. it will
cause no little amusement, for the reason that
two Chicago banks have gone to law about it.

The south balkan Provinces Being De-
populated by the Turks.


LONDON, Sept. 2s.-The pitiful stories of
the condition of the Christian population
south Of the Balkans are beginning to create
uneasiness in Europe. The dispatch of Ahmed
Vefik to Adrianople, at the instance of Minis
ter Layard, has not had the effect of putting
a stop to the executions.
The italian consuls are sending to their
government fearful accounts of the doings of
Ottoman officials. They say that the eSeeu-
tions and transportations are depopulating
Roumeiia. The italian consul at Tupoli
states that 25,ooo Bulgarians have been land
ed at Tripoli from Turkish transports, and
have been sent to towns OF the desert in the
interior. A correspondent of the Times, en-
gagged on one Of the relief agencies at
work among the Bulgarians, sends a
hideous account of the state of
that province. He is at present es-
tahlished at CaTtora, on the southern
slope of the Balkans twenty miles south of
Rastoulik; in this place the population,
which he estimates must have been near 20, :
600, there is not a grown man left, and for six
weeks the place has been at the mercy of ir-
regulars of the Turkish army. There now re-
mains nothing but the ruins of what was
once beautiful town of twenty or thirty
thousand people, only the women and chill
dren; these poor creatures hide themselves
as best they may, dreading the outrages of
which nightly some of them are the victims
They can hardly be said to have shelter,
clothing or food and have sustained life by
furtively gathering roots and vegetables left
there in ruined gardens.

Crvn SERVICE REFORM.
The 0hIoan Clerks at washington Going
Nonse to Vote.

WASHINGTON, Sept 2S.-The Republican
State Central Committee of Ohio is getting
'despondent, and has sent agents to this city
to obtain personal and material aid in carry
ing on the campaign. These gentlemen rep
resent that the offfce-holders are willing to
give Hayes civil service order the broadest
construction, and are seriously indisposed to
contribute their money or time to the cause.
Less than $500 has been collected from that
source, and there are indications that large
numbers will abstain from voting unless in
timation is given from Washington that they
are carrying the civil service reform too far.
The agents ask that Ohioans in Office here be
required to go home and vote in order to in
duce resident offiee-holders to do the same
Secretary sherman met the appeal with a
liberal contribution, and it has been given out
that by going home to vote, and by contribG-
tion of means, clerks from Ohio will make
their tenure of Office more certain. Even Sec
retary Schurz swings into line and assents to
clerks in the Interior Department going home
to vote. even if it causes temporary suspen-
sion of the thousand and one Investigations
now in progress; efforts are being made to
secure reduced fares on railroads, and if these
prove successful there are about one hundred
and fifty clerks enrolled who will go home to
vote, paying their expenses, with the under
standing that the time lost will not be de
Quoted from their annual leave of absence.
