The Commissioner,s Position,

Special to Louisville Courier-Journal.
Mr.. Evans went into his office with the dis
advantage of not having the acquaintance of
single man under him. He, however, took
the reins of his vast and complicated depart
ment, and announced that he would drive
the revenue coach with his best ability. That
was only short time ago. He soon found
that if he was to be held responsible for the
efficiency of the revenue machine it was nee
essaTy for him to have the best and most
competent men under his immediate COM
mand. and it was also best that these men
should be his friends so that he could talk
business with them frankly and confidential
ly. He found in the service no matter where
now, few men who were incompetent to fill
their places. He consulted with the Presi-
dent and the latter told him that he held
him responsible for the efficiency of the rev.
enue service Mr.. Evanss duty was plain,
and he was not slow to act.
Now" said Commissioner Evans, II
know just exactly what l am doing, and l
know also the men who are making this
racket and the reason for it, | am not in the
least disturbed by these newspaper attacks

competent men and men that l can trust

gest the transfer of man from one place to

That shows that there is leak in my office,
and intend to stop it."
"Will there be any other removals?'
"Yes, think there will / want the reve-
nue. force to suit me, or else l would rather
not remain at the head of it. OF course, if
the President is dissatisfied with my organic
ing the force to suit myself, he will not be
backward in saying as much. One thing
you can depend upon, and that is, that few
men here in Washington, aided by a few
newspapers, will not bulldoze me. This fight
on me has been made to save the heads of few
men in the service, but it will not succeed.

banking upon the dissipated capital of Indi-
ana as the great political factor of national
battles. They have either not yet learned,
or they strangely forget what must be evil
dent to every intelligent and dispassionate
observer of political events. that Indiana
won't control the next presidential election.
That State will be controlled, regardless OF
its leaders, by the popular tide that is now
reasonably certain to control Connecticut,
New York, New Jersey, Indiana, and proba-
bly, Pennsylvania, Ohio Virginia, Tennessee
and North Carolina. While the result of the
contest of 1884 now defies intelligent cacula-
tion, it seems quite likely that the States
before named will vote for the same presi-
dental candidate next year, and so far from
Indiana controlling results, that State will be
controlled by the tide that must carry the
country very largely to one party or the
other. If the Democrats defeat Randall for
Speaker and revive the tariff issue as the
vital question for 1884, all the States we have
named will vote for any fair Republican can
didate; if the Democrats make a blameless
record in the next Congress and nominate
man who commands the trust of the people,
Democratic success by the vote of the same
States is not only possible but probable In
any event. Indiana won't be great factor in
the battle of next year, and the sooner the
Indiana Democratic leaders learn the fact the
less folly they will have to atone for.

sherman's Last Official Tour.

WASHINGTON, June 20.-General Sherman,
accompanied by Colonel Tiball, of his staff
left here this morning for Buffalo, where he
will be joined by Chief Justice Waite and
Justice Gray. From there the party will
start on their trip across the continent along
the Northern boundary of the United States
inspecting all of the military posts en- route
General Sherman would have put off his de-
parture until after the funeral of General
Ewing, but one days delay in starting would
have disarranged all his plans throughout
the entire trip, which had been carefully
mapped, with dates for arrivals at certain
points and escorts provided to meet the
party along the route. Colonel Bacon, of
General Sherman's staff was to have accom-
panied the party, but decided to remain here

A TENNESSEE JUDGE
Indicted for Perjury and subornation of
Witnesses

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 2O-The Ameri-
cans Springfield special says; Judge John
E. Garner, of that place, was indicted at the
June term o. the Robertson County Circuit
Court, for an attempt to commit perjury and
subornation of witnesses in law suit in
which he was the leading counsel, being the
trial of Bunch Hopkins, for the killing of
DIR. Nuckles, in which Hopkins was acquit-
ted on the ground OF self-defense. The trial
was most exciting one, on account of the
prominence of the parties and the manner of
the killing, and the verdict of acquittal was
productive of much feeling. There are sew
eral counts in the Indictment one charging
that Judge Garner bribed witnesses to swear
falsely. Ben. Boon, James Boon, James
Suit and Sim Demonbreun were indicted
jointly with Judge Garner. Judge Garner is
one of the commission of referees, a court
created by the last Legislature to relieve the
Supreme Courts over-crowded docket He
is lawyer of high standing and has served
on the bench and in other positions of honor
and trust.

THE SPEAKERSHIP.

The Chair Will Not BE Occupied by Free
Trader-Senator Eaton's Views.
New York Tribune
The impression grows that the Speaker will
not be free trader; that, on the contrary,
Mr. Samuel j. Randall will occupy the chair;
that the ways and means committee will be
lodging committee, and that the burning
question:" as the free traders call their hob
by, will be so wet down that it will only
smolder during the session. The views of
Senator Eaton as recently expressed in pub
lished letter are accepted by a majority of
the party. That gentleman remembers with
great clearness what happened from tackling
the tariff question in 1880, and he is
chiefly anxious to avoid a repeti-
ton of it. His feeling is very much
the same as that of the bereaved husband
whose wife, supposed to be dead, was being
taken to the cemetery. The careless driver
OF the hearse struck a post as he was turning
into the cemetery; the hearse tipped over,
the coffin burst open, and the occupant, be-
ing only in trance, came to consciousness
and returned home with the mourners.
Some months after she did actually die. The
second funeral was in progress, and the pro-
cession wass drawing near to the cemetery
gate, when the bereayed husband slipped out
OF his carriage, and, running up to the
hearse, called to the driver with great earn
estness: "Be sure and keep clear of the

frauds connected with these building con-
tracts 1t shows how differently the admin
istration investigate in case wh~n they are
anxious to do something, and in a case
where they are not"
Mr.. Thomas, IN reply, charged that the
gentleman's remarks were intended for intu-
ence and effect outside the room where this
investigation is being carried on.
Mr. Coleman called attention to the requi-
stion made, some days ago, in the case OF
Bartlett. Robbins & Co., and said this requisi-
ton had not been fully complied with, nor
have we any means of knowing to what
extent.
Three clerks in the Supervising Architects
Office were sworn, and testified to having
looked through the files of the office for the
purpose of obtaining the papers called for
by Mr.. Coleman, and said that all papers
bearing upon the subject had been produced.
Mr.. Murch was then sworn, and answered
the usual questions as to residence, occupa-
tion, etc. Witness had been sLone-cutter
from 1859 to within six years; he worked
both as a journey man and as foreman in
dressing granite for the Philadelp phia build
ing During the time he worked there the
Is per cent. contract was in force with the
Dix Island Granite Company. The men were
instructed as to the length of time they
should occupy in cutting each stone. The
superintendent made estimates and if the
man finished particular stone in less time
he was kept at jobbing until the estimated
time expired. Witness worked about 140
days upon one stone, and believed he could
have done the work in forty or fifty days.
Question-Why did you work lao days
| upon one stone?
Answer-Because 1 was working under in
structions.
Witness believed work under the Is per
| cent. contracts was much better performed
| than that under the modified contracts.
| Witness stated several instances coming un-
der his own observation where men were car
ried on the pay-rols and paid by the govern
ment where they were not performing any
| service. Witness believed that the modified
contracts yielded to contractors from 200 to
300 per cent. of profit and were grossly un-
fair to the government, based as they
were upon extravagant prices paid
for dressing stone under the Is per
cent. contracts. Witness appeared before
the commission of which Assistant Secretary
French and Mr.. Hill were members, and tes-
titled to all the facts as just related by him,
and called Mr.. Hills attention to the unfair
ness of the modified contracts which he
| (HilD then proposed making.
Counsel for defense wished to postpone
the cross-examination of Murch until to-
morrow, to which the prosecution assented.
Several letters and other documentary
| evidence relating to the Philadelphia build
| ing were then offered. after which General
| SteinmetZ was recalled and questioned, as
an expert, relative to certain alterations in
| plans for the building. The committee ad-

licenses under the new city ordinance in or
der to evade the operation of the new State
high-license law continued to-day. When
the clerks office opened this morning the
line of expectant dram-sellers extended
through the hallway and half block along
the streets. Preparations for speed had been
made, however, and by noon the jam was
practically over and for the remainder of
the day was easily taken care of. The result
of the two days work is the issuance of
5000 licenses. There are about four thou
sand saloon-keepers in the city. 1t is alleged
that many of the noiaries winked at glaring
irregularities in furnishing sureties.

Nothing Definitely Decided AS To the Indi

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, June 20.-It has not been
definitely decided yet whether Indiana will
have three or four internal revenue districts
under the new consolidation. One plan dis
cussed by the President and the Secretary of
he Treasury is to consolidate the Evansville
and Lawrenceburg districts (the First and
Fourth) into one; to combine the Sixth and
Seventh indianapolis and Terre Haute) and
to make one district of the Tenth and
Eleventh, thus cutting the State into three
districts, extending crosswise from the east
to the west boundaries. Another plan
is to consolidate the Lawrenceburg and
indianapolis districts, the Terre Haute and
Evansville districts, and the two northern
districts. The third plan is to consolidate
the Evansville and Lawrenceburg districts
and the two northern districts, leaving the
indianapolis and Terre Haute districts sub
stantially unchanged, and giving the State
four instead of three districts Under the
first and last plans either Cumback or Veatch
would have to retire; under the first there
would be acontest for the position between
Carter and Mckay; under the second it would
be between Cumback and Mckay and Veatch
and Carter; under the last Mckay and Carter
would be undisturbed, and under the opera
ton of any of the plans either Moon or
kirkpatrick, of the Warsaw and Anderson
districts, would have to take back seat. 1t
is quite likely that decision one way or the
other will be reached verv soon

OBITUARY..
Death of Rev. John William Colenso, Bishop
of Natal.

Death of Rev. John William COlenso, Bishop
of Natal.
DuRBAN, June 20-Right Rev. John Will
liam Colenso, D. D., Bishop of Natal, is
dead.
Bishop Colenso was born in Cornwall on
Jan. "a, 1874 He took his degree at ST.
Johns College, Cambridge, in 1886. In 1888
he became assistant master at Harrow, in
1912 tutor of St John's-College, and in 1916
rector of Forncett st. Mary. In 1854 he was
appointed Bishop of Natal, South Africa. In
1861 he published "The Epistle to the Ro-
mans, newly translated and explained from
a Missionary Point of View" and in 1862
1.-THE Pentateuch and Book of Joshua Criti-
cally Examined" This last work in which
he called in question many of the statements
contained in those books, excited much
animadversion, and was formally condemned
by the convocation of the province
oi Canterbury, and he was declared by the
Bishop of Cape Town to be deposed from the
office of bishop. An appeal to the privy
council was taken, upon the ground that tile
crown had no right to create a bishop in any
colony where there was an independent leg
islature and that therefore there was in law
no bishop either of Cape Town or Natal. In
England he found many synpathizers, and
i''evious to his return TO Natal, in 1865 a
public meeting was held, and he received a
Testimonial of 933 300. In 1866 he published
volume entitled Natal Sermons" and sew
eral papers justifying his course in the con-
troversy In January, 1869, Rev. William K.
'Macrorie was consecrated Bishop of Maritz-
burg. in Natal, it being held that the see was
duly vacated by his predecessor. But in 1872
the Colonial Assembly passed an act vesting
in DIR: Colenso the property belonging to the
roe of Natal
