The New York SUMS Charges Against Com
missioner Dudley.
Philadelphia Press
The New York Sun yesterday published an at
tack on Commissioner Dudley, Of the Pension
Bureau. 1t appears that the Commissioner
stands convicted of what our esteemed Demo
cratic contemporary regards the following UNI
pardonable crimes.
First The encouragement of merit cards of
punctuality industry, rapidity, good habits and
accuracy in his clerks
Second-In suggesting to the men employed in
the Office that sitting all day with their coats of,
chewing tobacco and expectorating on the floor
In the presence of highly respectable and often
manly, but offensive, and that the ordinary rules
of propriety and the amenities of life were not
out of place in the Pension Office.
Third-An attempt by circular and otherwise,
to improve the arrogant style of letter writing
prevalent in that Office, which, in its least ag-
grayated form, was in bad taste, and in its worst
insolent In this connection the Sun informs
the public that Commissioner Dudley has dared
to address his clerks in the following mpertinent
and manifestly improper language
Let the examiner who writes letter seek TO intelli
gently, and in the most polite language at bis com
mand, convey the fullest possible answer to the
writer's inquiries In short, let have refreshing
change in the manner and form Of expression in our
Fourth-The Commissioner insists that his
badly paid and oEer-worked clerks give the Office
six and one-haf hours honest labor per day,
and not eat their lunch during work hours and
enjoy the time allowed for lunch on the street
He even had the unblushing effronterY to sug-
gest to his employees that the interests Of thou
sands of expeetant pensioners, whose very eSis-
tence, in some instances, depends on the speedy
settlement of their claims, demand this much
from the Office In which these clerks are EN-
ployed.
The Sun deserves great credit for its exposure
of the Pension Office and its righteous denuncia-
ton Of Commissioner Dudley His speedy re-
moyal from Office should at once follow such un
the rights and privileges of the ladies and gen
| tlemen who condescended to grace the Pension
Bureau with their presence. 1t is to be hoped
the good work inaugurated by the Sun will not
end in the Pension Bureau By all means, let
it be continued through the other departments at
Washington. 1t is high time thepublic were in
formed Of the unparalleled audacity of Repub
liean bureau officers.

A Case without Hone,

John r. Booker, of Macon, Ga, writes: In

cancerous sores, that ate great holes into my
flesh and spread rapidly over my body. / re-

crippled with mercurial rheumatism that I
could scarcely hobble about; my throat and
mouth were badly liberated, my hair began to
fall out. So wrecked was my general health
that became physical ruin and my life was a
burden For long time I was bed ridden, and
my suffering was so intense that l prayed for
death as relief exhausted the whole cata-
logue of patent medicines, in each case following
the directions religiously. Each in turn seemed
to aggravate the malady, and none Of them bene-
fitted me in any way. When life was apparently
hopeless commenced taking S. S. S. To this

well My hair has grown out thick; my health

enjoy my food. Every sore has disappeared
from my body. / weigh as much as ever did
in my life, and am perfectly healthy in every
way. The very germs Of the caneerous affection

that was preying on my life, and which everyone

also relieved of the bad effects Of the mercury
and potash mixtures that l was fed on for
years.

Miscellaneous Notes.

Il
The gross earnings of the Missouri Pacific, in
Guiding the Iron Mountain in June increased
s97,775
The Northern Pacific has laid a track into Min
nesota and no Iongerhas to enter over the tracks
of the Manitoba.
The West Shore pay-car started from New
York Tuesday to pay the employees up to June g.,
the date of the receivership.
The arrangement between the Wabash and the
ST Paul, with reference to the terminal facilities
at Ottumwa, will soon be completed,
The New York. New Haven g Hartford com
pany is credited with having furnished the
money to pay the New York & New England
coupons.
The New York Dial says Vanderbilt is crying
up his properties but it is noticed that he is not
buying them up He wants the other fell
lows" to do that.
The Daily Indicator says the adjournment Of
Congress clips the claws of the bears. The rail-
roads will now have chance to earn their diyi-
dends and interest.
The Canton, Aberdeen & Nashville branch of
the jackson route has been completed to West
Point, Miss The Illinois Central company is
laying the track at the rate Of mile per day.
The Baltimore & Ohio railroad has acquired
control of the Grafton and Green Brier road, one
of the most valuable local lines in West Vir-
one of the richest coal and timber districts in the
South.
The New York Mail says 'tErie's condition
suggests the probability of a circular similar to
that of Governor Smith, of the Vermont Central:
In order to promote harmony among all classes
of bondholders, no interest will be paid on any
obligations
In order to get ahead of the ticket scapers at
the New Orleans Exposition the railroads have
agreed upon an Airon clad ticket, Eand will place
the sale and auditing in the hands of common
agent, who win manage the whole business at
one ticket pavilion, now in course of erection
Commissioner Fink's new pool rates gave the
Grand Trunk Al per cent of the New York
through business and the Michigan Central
only 8 per cent. The Vanderbilt lines appealed
to the arbitrators- Charles Francis Adams, IT.,
John @. Gault and Hugh Riddle-and it is said
that they concluded to award in favor of the
Vanderbilt lines. But they have delayed be-
cause Fink is aggrieved and the Grand Trunk
is likely to bolt and this is likely to lead to a
rehearing.
The new time schedule arranged by the gem
eral superintendent of the Union Pacific and
its Eastern allies reduce the time of freight
trains between Chicago and Denver to about
fifty nine hours, while the present time Of the
Burlington is about sixty hours It is quite Ger
tain that the Burlington will meet this action Of
the Western Trunk-line Association roads by
making still further reduction in the time Of its
freight trains, and there is great danger that
another war on rates viii be fnaugurated

The Real workers q one country.

bprIhgned RepubHcahs
Who are the real iaborers of the ceuntryY Are
they the members of trade-unions. and the
knights of this and that who walk behind
brass bandsl Everybody knows how small a
proportion these organizations include of the
real laborers of the country. The census Of
1880 discovered over IL 300 600 persons who were
able to give their occupations, not including
those engaged in household duties in their own
families; OF these there were nearly l3, 1000 900
males between sixteen and fifty years of age,
and nearly IA, 900, 900 of the whole number were
natives Of the United States The idea that
most Of the laborers are foreigners, therefore,
has but slight foundation. There are over ], (
600, 900 males engaged in agriculture, 100000
in manufactures /, 1850 900 in trade and transpor-
tation. and q 712 900 in professional and personal
services, as well rs lawyers and doctors. There
are probably 10000, 900 manual laborers upon
wages in the country who are wholly outside the
trade unions.

Another Big railroad scheme.

The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe people have
taken out charter for about 400 miles of road
in southwestern Kansas, to connect parts of
their system and occupy rich country not now
supplied with roads. An opinion prevails that
the extension will connect with a road to be
built through the Indian Territory to Texas, and
it is believed that the Gulf, Colorado & Santa
Fe road viii be extended north to meet the A.,
I, & S. F. extension An extension through
the territory northward to meet the Atchisor
system, will involve the construction of only
about $50 or 300 miles of road distance varying
according to feasibility Of route) and this will
connect those important commercial centers Of
las-with Kansas City and Chicago, thus giving
the great cattle, wheat and cotton sections a

induced totry ATHLoPHoRos, after all the usual
remedies failed. In 20 minutes after taking the
first dose could bear my weight upon my feet
In two days was able to get about and attend
to business In two other cases which have
come nmy knowledge its use has been attended
with the same results.

row dollar to buy bottle OF ATHLoPHoRos
On account of his poverty his name shall remain
a secret He had suffered terribly from Rheu-

II took my first dose Tuesday afternoon,
and on Wednesday, after but seven doses, 1 had

THE GROWING CROPS.
The Indiana Farmers Estimate Of Their
Condition "A Favorable Showing,

The following statement of the condition of
the growing crops and live stock in Indiana, as
compared with the corresponding period last
year, will appear in the Indiana Farmer of this
week, and is certainly of an encouraging and re-
assuring nature:
Our reports Of the condition Of the crops to July
l are little better in most respects than month
ago. The table, given by counties for Indiana shows
decided improvement in the wheat, as compared
with the same date last year. July 1, 1883, but
three counties in Indiana reported wheat up to 100 in
condition Now we have twenty four counties report
ing 100.
Wheat-Harvest Is reported progressing salts
factoriy in Indiana Ohio and Illinois. The berry is
generally very good, much better in this respect than
last year In few counties the fly has done dam
age but this is not general in any county. Most of
the reporters lay stress the fact that the quality is
excellent. Compared with the LIST of July last year
the average condition in per cents of full crop is as
follows, 100 standing for full average crop;
