The Life saving service.

Washington, Dec. 3.-Thc life saw
ing service has lT9 stations, l30 of
which are on the Atlantic coast, "a on
lakes and 6 on the Pacific coast. The
record of the service for this year sur
passes any previous year. The csuali-
ties have been greater than ever before,
the highest previous number be-
ing 2l9, and this year there were 800.
or the l $50 persons on board of these
vessels only o were lost. Great relief
has been afforded slipwrecked persons,
and besides this many vessels have been
saved from wreck. Inadequate compen-
sation is fast driving men from the bus
iness and threatens to destroy its ell
cheney. The superintendent asks that
the matter Of pay be left to the discre-
tion Of the general superintendent. The
present rate Is $40 per month.

The idea that steamer has been
lifted out at Baltimore and sailed for
the west coast of South America for the
purpose Of breaking the Gillian block
ade and getting into Callao, Peru, with
munitions of war for the belligeren;
Peruvians, is regarded as highly anus
ing by Chilians now here. The fact
that the Amazonas-to say nothing OF
any other Gillian vessels cruising OFF
the Peruvian coast, eager for fight,
should, they think, deter any one from
attempting, with any vessel less power
full than tie Amazonas, to run into the
Peruvian ports. The truth is, they
claim, that any attempt to succor not
amounting to forcible intervention by
some strong government will be fail
ure, whether conducted by land or sea.
Peru Is completely prostrate at the

the reported mysterious disappearance
OF one Of the guests. On Monday Frank

law registered at the hotel as from Ar,
izo territory, and last evening Rigg:
left the house and has not been seen
since. As Riggs was known to have q
large sum of money, 5000, it is said
that Mrs. Riggs suspects, or Processes
10 suspect, that her husband has been
foully dealt with, and this morning
sought the aid of the police. Detectives
were set TO work, but no trace of the
missing man could be found. This
evening, however, telegram was re-
ceiyed by Mrs. Riggs, which the de-
tectiyes think contained information
that Riggs had simply abandoned his
family. At all events, Mrs. Riggs has
changed quarters and the excitement
Is allayed.

Washington, Dec. g. Secretary
Thompson in his annual report reiter-
ates the opinion he expressed in Cali
fornia rs TO the great Importance of
the Mare Island navy yard, and, after
describing its advantages of situation,
the readiness with which its approaches
can be defended, and the excellent con-
dition Of its buildings, he says: Every
thing connected with 1t recommends
this navy yard TO the avorable.consid-
Grafton of congress. lie says the appre-
hension Of permanent injury to the
navigation Of the river in front of the
navy yard is unfounded, the shoaling
being created only by soft mud wash
ings from Napa valley, which will be
removed by dredging. The secretary
wamly recommends an appropriation
Of $3.50, 900 to continue work on the
stone dry dock, complete the iron
plating shops, construct roads, extend
timber shed, and repair section Of
the floating dock. He says this dry

New York, Dec. 3.-The indictments
against Philip, Hart, Byrne and Post
charge the flrst-named for writing, and
the others for publishing on the 2ad of
October last an editorial headed: sly
ling and sticking to it, in the Truth
newspaper, and also for publishing the
alleged Garfield Chinese letter and fac
simile Of it, and by these means unlaw-
fully, wickedly and maliciously devising
rs much rs in them lay to injure and
villify James A. Garfield and to bring
him into public scandal and disgrace,
and to deprive him of his good fame,
credit and reputation, to the great
scandal and injury of Jas. a. Garfield,
and against the peace of the people of
New York and their dignity.
These parties are all charged with
criminal libel, the penalty for which is
one year in the penitentiary and $3.50
fine. Bail was given by Philip, after
which the examination was continued.
Post and Hart came to the district attor-
ney's Office this afternoon to give bail,
hut Judge Cowing had gone home, and
they were allowed to so on their own
responsibility until tomorrow morning,
when they will furnish the necessary
bonds. 1t is probable that now Morey
has been indicted for perjury he will
be removed from the house of deten.
tion to the Tombs. All the indicted
parties, it is said, will be arraigned in
the court of general sessions on Mon.

Washington, Dec. William H..
Holschuck, upon whose affidavit Ex-
Minister Christiancy and his counsel,
Robert Ingersoll, relied to prove Mrs.
Christiancy's infidelity, brought the
case to sudden termination to-day.
Holschuck, who is clerk at the st.
James hotel, testified that his affidavit
was founded on mistaken identity and
false statements made TO him. The
case will very likely be dropped now.

views nan All rsia,-.

Washington, Dec. Commissioner
Raum's report Of the internal revenue
receipts for 1879. were Sis, ,0OO, 900. an
increase Of two and three-quarter mil
lions, the receipts for 1880 were sl24,
O00, 900, in the face Of the reduction OF
the tobacco tax, an increase of ten and
oae-half millions. The same ratio Of
increase is kept up for the first four
months OF the present year, and bids
fair to continue Throughout the year on
account of the prosperous times, which
seem likely TO be better than worse. As
congress will therefore probably want
to relieve the people from the taxes, be
suggested that bank checks, matches,
patent medicines, perfumery, ETC., bank
deposits, savings bank deposits, aud
bank capital. all Of which yielded sll,-
0o0. 900 tax, should not be TOO speedily
removed on matches, cosmetics. etc.,
as 1t would injure the trade OF those
who have them now on hand.
The commissioner thinks that liquors,
tobacco and their products will give an
annual tax Of sl20.o00. 900, which sum
will gradually increase and be ample for
the purposes Of the government. lie
would continue the stamp tax on all
medieated bitters containing over 20
per cent. Of proof spirits. The bank
taxes he would remit first, because the
revenue does not need them; and Sec
ond, because they are unequally i'm
posed.
During the last four years and four
months t4,061 Illicit distilleries have
been seized, 1889 persons arrested for
running them, 26 United States officers
and men killed, and 81 wounded. In
the past sixteen months l,l20 stills
were seized. There will probably be a
decrease in Illicit stills henceforth; the
legal distilleries soon run out the lille
gal ones whenever established.
Additional legislation is needed To
protect the United States officers in
collecting the revenue.
He takes issue with Secretary Sher-
man for taking from him the appoint
ment Of subordinates, and says the
commissioner is better able to make
these appointments than the secretary
Of the treasury is; that while he Is re-
sponsible for the conduct and honesty
Of his subordinates, he should have con-
troll Of their appointment.
The total cost of collecting for the
year was 81 ,50G, 900, or 363 per cent. of
the total amount. lie gives details
Of the amounts collected from the va
rious articles. He says the only in
crease In revenue on tobacco is in the
lower grades, the others have fallen of
owing to the reduction of the tax; the
price of tobacco remains unchanged,
and consequently the only reason for n
larger trade in tobacco Is the general
business boom. Spirits have largely
increased in amount, 1900, 900 gallons
being on hand on July lst, 1879, and
q, ,000, 900 on the first OF November,
1880. He fears that the business is on
the eve Of being overdone; 10000, 600
gallons were produced and deposited in
distilling warehouses during the last
fiscal year. Gen. Raum makes some
practical suggestions rs to casks, etc.
