IN. Y. Herald.I

WASHINGTON, April 3.-The new Blue Book,
just published, g. cumbrous and utterly use
less but very costly publication, which con-
tains the name of every person employed in
the Federal service, gives $3.50 as the total
number OF Federal office holders Of all kinds
and degrees. This Is about one in $50 Of the
total population, or one for every ninety votes.
The vast number of Office seekers ceases to
excite surprise when these figures are known,
for if there were but five applicants for
every place this would make one in
every eighteen Of the voting population
Federal place hunter. But when the State
and local officers are added to the Federal the
number Of persons who are paid for attending
to the business Of ruling the remainder be-
comes frightful to contemplate. Counting
school officers, constables and justices Of the
peace, with the more important placemen, 1t
Is probable that the State and local office
holders are at least as numerous as those in
Federal employment, and at that rate one
man in forty-five voters would be drawing his
support from the public purse, or in other
words, every collection Of forty-fve voters
Throughout the country is obliged to support
one man by their labor in order to maintain
such government as we have. But we allow
five place-hunters for every State and local
place, as we'll as for the Federal offices, the
result would show that every ninth voter in
the entire Republic is an office-seeker.

A Brave Act.

PORT EADs, April 8-This morning at
about 9 O'Clock the towboat Wicaco, with the
French ship Emma in tow, when about five
miles from land, lost overheard fireman
named French Louis. There was very
heavy sea running at the time, and the ship
passed clean over the man and the tOwboat
rounded to as soon as possible. Mr.. Geo.
Uhler, the second engineer of the Wicaco re-
marked that he believed he could save the
man, and seizing a life bouy jumped over
board, and swimming to the exhausted man
gave him the buoy and helped to sustain him
until the towboat could get close enough to
throw line Both were saved. The bravery
of the act can only be appreciated by those
who saw 1t.
Pass George Uhler's name around with a
hip, hip, hurrah, all the honors and tiger.

Custom nuties Not Collected.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-Speaker Randall,
in conversation about the tariff bill, said this
morning that the duties under the present
law are not faithfully collected. He said that
if duties amounting to $40, 900, 900 annually
were collected, and they were distributed so
as to protect the manufacturing interests, no
further protection would be necessary. He
added that, Of the 60 per cent duty levied
upon silks, not more than As per cent Is col
lected; that Of the revenue on kid gloves alone
the s4O,Ooo,OOo that should be collected On
sugar there is a loss OF 55,OO0,00o. The classi-
fication Of iron and steel in the Wood tariff
bill is satisfactory to the manufacturers OF
Philadelphia. The committee changed the
duty from ad valorem to specific to please
them, and that portion Of the bill relating to
this matter was copied from the printed slips
prepared by the Iron and Steel Association
of Philadelphia. Speaker Randall said that
he had these slips now in his possession.

Alarming Increase of Mysterious Disap-
pearancps.

NEW YORK, April s-There has been an
unusual number OF cases OF mysterious dis
appearance in the past few days. The man.
ner In which people suddenly drop out OF
sight of their friends is remarkable. No one
can find out whore they go. Their friends
give the names and descriptions OF the miss
ing ones, and a general alarm Is sent to all
the station houses, and read to all the mem
bers of the police force; then $500 pairs of
eyes are engaged in the search, but the alb
sent persons in many cases cannot be found.
Some times they run away or are drowned,
or are locked up In prison under assumed
Among the saddest cases reported are those
of the Murphy children, Maggie and Susan,
respectively fifteen and thirteen years OF age
and Mille Lummis, aged fifteen. They
started for school about ten days ago, since
which time they have not been seen.
One of the strangest cases OF disappearance
was reported last night. A handsome young
woman named Mary Kidd, left her home in
Greenport, l.. l., a few days ago for this city.
and. although her friends and private detec-
tives have been diligently searching for her,
she cannot be found. She Is said to be a
young woman OF good character.
Sarah Mccarthy, aged forLy-two years, OF
Brooklyn. has been missing for few days.
When last seen she had S112 in her possession.
William Weight was reported missing by
they told Of their fears. There are numerous
other cases reported.
At the Morgue are seven dead bodies, all
Of men, who are supposed to have committed
suicide by drowning. Some OF these bodies
explained the mysterious disappearance OF
men who have been absent from their homes
for several weeks.
