ACCUSED OF AN AWFUL
CRIME.

MILWAUKEE,, Jan. George Scheller,
proprietor of the Newhall House bar,
was arrested at one O'Clock last after
noon on warrant sworn out by Officer
Hannitn, charging him with setting
the fire which destroyed the Newhaii
House on Wednesday morning last week.
The arrest was made by Lieutenant Jan
sen and Officer Hannifin in Booths
Quiet House," corner of Mason street
and Broadway. Scheller did not seem
much surprised, and made no statement.
He looked pretty badly broken up. He
has been drinking heavily since the
hre, and his face shows the effects Of the
spree.
The engineer Of the Newhall House
thinks the fire was incendiary, although
he accuses no one. He found where a
pile of wood had been placed in the
basement and lighted. Scheller was
drunk the evening before the fire Oc-
Cured. He denies the crime but there
Is strong feeling against him.

THURMAN AND HOADLY FOR CIVIL,
SERVICE REFORM,

Ex-senator Thurman don't slop over.
In response to a newspaper man the
Judge said, 81 am out of politics." but
when interTOgated on the Pendleton
civil service bill, said:
81 have probably heard twenty men
discuss this bill, and from what / see in
the papers there are many others who
have given their opinion upon it. But
of those | have cOnyersed with, not one
had read the bill throughout. They had
seen extracts from it, and thus came to
conclusion as TO the merits of the
measure. But being Judge | could not
give an opinion without looking over
the entire case. In fact have not read
the bill, nor have seen it in full; neith-
or have had time to read the speeches
or discussions upon it in Congress, and
cannot be expected to pass an opinion
upon 1t, one way OF the other"
Judge HOadly was also seen and ap-
proved himself in favor of civil service
reform, adding:
1t will not do for US to pitch into
PendletOn too strong, for if we tip over
the boat there will be a good many of
our best men that will be spilled into
the water"

Governor PattisOn Inaugurated
Quietly.
The Executive Of the Keystone State Goes
Into Office Without Any Undue
Demonstration.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Jan. 1G.-Mr. Patti
son took up his residence at the EXecu-
tive Mansion this morning. His refusal
to permit himself to be made subject
of any OstentatiOn or display had effect
to diminish the usual crowds, but there
was large number of strangers in the
city, and the inaugural ceremonies were
witnessed by large and interested as
semblage. 1t was expected PattisOn
would accept the escort of the Americus
Club OfPbiladelphia, from the Executive
Mansion to the capitol, but he refused
and accompanied by the joint LegisIa-
tive committee and George HOyt, walked
to the capitol few minutes before IL
where had already assembled the mem
bers of the Legislature. The oath of
office was administered to the Gov
ernor-elect by Justice Turnkey, when
the new Governor delivered his inaugu-
raj address.
The Governor, in his message says: I
adopt, in part, as direct application to
the present time, a sentence from Presi-
dent JacksOn's first inaugural, in which
he says: "The recent demonstration Of
public sentiment inscribes on the list of
executive duties, in characters too legi-
BILE to be overlooked, the task of re-
form"
This task clearly set before, himgthe
present Executive will zealOusly strive
to fulfill it. Happily for him., ,,there can
be no doubt of the particular subjects as
to which public anxiety for improve
ment has manifested itself. These are
well defined. The method of accom-
plishment is a question for legislative
wisdom ultimately to determine. So
far as the limits of an address like this
will permit let me briefly state few Of
the subjects of needed reform. The peo-
pie demand the abolition of needless
offices, the fixing of official cOmpensa-
tiOn at sums commensurate with the SER
vice rendered, by salaries definitely as
certained, rigid accountability in the
expenditure of public monies, and the
raising of the efficiency of the civil SER
vice by making fitness and integrity
alone tests for appointment. The peO-
pie demand strict economy in the ex-
penditure of their monies, simple and
business like conduct of affairs of the
government and repeal of all laws Great
ing revenues for the needless spending
of the public funds at the discretion Of
the officials. The people demand that
the burdens as well as benefits of the
government shall be distributed with
fairness, justice and impartiality. They
demand uniformity and, simplicity in
taxation and its distribution in such a
way as that, while all shall bear their
just share of the common burdens, those
who contribute the most receive the
most and those suffer the least who can
bear the least.
