An Exposure of the Falsity of Certain
Charges Concerning the Civil Service.
Special to the indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, May A good deal of com
plant having reached Congress from different
parts of the country to the effect that in carry
ing out the general provisions of the civil
service laws the l754th section of the Revised
Statutes, requiring that preference be given to
discharged Union soldiers and sailors in making
federal appointments had been violated, call
was made upon the Secretary of the Treasury
and heads of the departments for the facts in
the case. The answers elected show that the
parties complaining had no cause for doing so.
In several instances it is proven that the per
sons who complained against the manner in
which the civil-service laws were fulfilled were
never soldiers. In one or two instances it is
shown that the men who complained that the
ex-soldiers and ex-sailors were ignored were
men who were not chosen for places they sought
because the soldiers were given preference and
appointed in their stead. In at least one par
ticular the civil-rights laws work two ways it is
thus seen.

The Feeling in Shelby County.

Special to the Indianapolis journal.
SHELBYvILLE, May 4. The news of the action of
the sub committe in deciding the English Peelle
contest in favor of Mr. English was received
here with surprise by all fair-mlnded Democrats
and indignation and disgust on the part of the
Republicans. One prominent Democrat o-day
remarked that if they had thought, in 1882, that
Mr.. English would have resorted to the methods
he has in order to gain a seat in Congress, the
honest men in Shelby county would have given
Mr.. Peelle handsome majority instead of per-
mitting English TO get even the pitful majority
of 11S.
The many warm friends of Congressman
Peele in this city and county propose to see that
this great public outrage perpetrated against
the will of the majority of the voters in the
Seventh district is made right and that the will
of the people shall not be overthrown by mere
techncalities and fraud. The English family
may triumph now, but in November next Shelby
county will materially aid in giving Mr.. Peelle
such overwhelming majority in this distri ct
as will put another contest out of the question.

LONDON, May At is no longer doubted that
the ship which signaled the City of Rome saved
some, if not all on board the State of Florida 1t
is calculated the disaster occurred on the 18th
ult, at which period the wind was blowing from
the east. The boats would drift until
rescued. They must have been launched, be-
cause they were so fixed they would not other
wise have foated The fact that the boats were
without gears or oars is regarded favorably, as
indicating that the rescung ship secured the oars
and gear and allowed the boats to drift away.
One is a life-boat number one, and the other
small, new boat not numbered. The owners are
of the opinion that the State of Florida struck an
iceberg, as the captain of the State of Pennsyl-
vania reports ice in the place the State
of Florida is supposed to have been
at the time of the disaster. An inventory
shows the cargo was shipped by two
well known firms, and all small packages on
board were accounted for. Detectives who were
reported as awaiting the arrival of the State of
Florida were seeking to arrest an embezzler,
supposed to be on the vessel The news
concerning the fate of the missing vessel
is awaited from America, where it is supposed
those who have been rescued will be landed.
The captain of the City of Rome explains that
when the ship displayed signals there was a lit
tie snow, and the flags showed badly and were
difficult to read. The City of Rome passed the
ship rapidly without replying to the signals.

Advocates of Postal Telegraphy Well Pleased
with What Has Been Accomplished.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, May 4.-Senator Hill, of Colo
rado, and members of the House committee on
postoffices and postroads, are jubilant over the
reductions that have been already made in tele
graph tolls. AS chairman Of the Senate com
mittee post-offices and post-roads Mr. Hill
was the first to begin an investigation into the
telegraph business. 1t was he who called the
officers and patrons of the telegraph companies
to testify, and who brought out the condition of
the corporations and their attitude toward the
people. The first bill providing for postal
telegraphy was formulated by him.
In conversation with your correspondent to-
day member of the House committee stated
that he had first had a talk with Senator Hill
and they both agreed that the bills now before
Congress will be passed either at this or the
next session, and that in either event the rates
will be reduced from 20 to so per cent. all over
the country before another six months They are
not slow to take to themselves the credit that is
due them for cheaper telegraph, already, and
that which is so soon promised.

MINISTER FOSTER.
Deserved Tribute to the Man Who Stands
at the Head of Our Diplomatic Service.

Washington Letter in Philadelphia Record
Minister Foster, of Madrid who is here in con
nection with our last Spanish treaty is one Of
the few diplomats in our diplomatic service,
Our diplomatic service, far more truly than our
Senate, is the place where our good politicians
go-when they're dead 1t is filed with incom-
petent men, who get their positions as rewards
for political service and without the slightest
reference to their personal fitness. Take Min
lister Lowell, of England, Minister Young of
China, Minister Foster and one or two others
less well known out of the list, and a beggarly
array remains. Lowell is not much of a diplo-
mat, though he is an extremely creditable repre-
sentative, and Young has not had very much
experience so that Foster stands pre-emnently
at the head of our diplomatic service. Foster is
fine-looking man, not tall, but tall in appear
anee, straight. thin, wiry, whitehaired white
whiskered, who dresses with excellent taste
He is quiet, courteous, delightful in converse
ton. He has strong mind, well stored with
the acquisitions of busy lifetime. He
possesses rare good judgment, coupled with
still rarer foresight. 1t is these valuable quail
fcations which have made him the adviser of men
much better known. He is called the rudder"
by men who know his unusual wisdom ana the
influence it has given him over great men who
have every good quality, but who lack the ability
to steer i'll safe paths across the stormy seas of
pollbiCso. ItSlueut ndh gtbhJ commence
in Minister Foster, although President Arthur
does not need steersman But he has consult
ed Minister Foster on several important occa-
sions greatly to his own satisfaction. One of
these consultations resulted i'll the appointment
of Postmaster general Gresham Foster brought
him to the surface Of national affairs. Apart
from his great natural abilities Minister Foster
is man Of great attainments He is a fine in
ternational lawyer, possessing well an init
mate acquaintance with our own laws and Gus
toms; a statesman familiar with all the state
craft known in our country or any of those to
which he has been accredited; nguist who is
able to speak the language of almost every la
tion in Europe or America. He is a man OF i,re-
proachable personal character, pure as ice and
honest as Fabrcius. He has served us at Mexi-
co, at st. Petersburg and at Madrid. He will be
in active service as long as he lives. Should he
die don't know any man who could take his
place. He is very rare man.

He Delivers Strong Speech Against the
Chinese Restriction Bill.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, May 4-No speech has been re
ceived more heartily by the House during the
present session than that of General Browne
yesterday afternoon, in opposition to the bill to
further restrict Chinese immigration. He had
spoken but few minutes when half the mem
bers were standing about him, listening intently
and applauding at brief intervals. He opposed
the bill because it dispossessed people of their
inherent right to go to any quarter of the globe
at their free WILL travelling for the purpose of
locating and becoming citizens. He thought it
mean principle to admit every other
class of people at Castle Garden and
refuse admission to the Chinese on the Pacific
slope.
1t had been alleged, he said, that the Chinese
degraded labor and yet there was no PARTON of
the country where labor was paid as well as on
the Pacific slope. There nearly yevery well-to-do
family employed the Chinese as chambermaids,
cooks, etc, while in the shop the Chinaman
thrived with the American. No proof had been
produced that labor had been degraded by the

A VALUABLE HISTOY.
The Curious Record Kept by United states
Marshal of Pennsylvania.

WASHINGTON, May 3-Ths Star says curi-
Gus accOunt-book kept by Deputy Marshal
Brown, of the Western district of Pennsylvania
has been discovered and is now in the hands Of
chairman Springer. 1t is large book Of over
four hundred closely written pages in cipher,
and is supposed to contain a history of all trans
actions of the marshal's office during his term,
more particularly of'the famous Roberts torpedo
cases. 1t contains also copies of correspondence
between Brown and number of court officials
at Pittsburg. There are arbitrary forms for
dates which it is quite easy to decipher but the
rest is perfectly unintelligiOle From what is
already known Of the transactions in court and
the marshais office, and what Brown has told,
some very important information is expected to
be derived from translation of the record 1t
is known that part of the record is composed of
letters from Mcdonald Hall and Deputy Clark
of the court and other court officers Springer
has sent subpoena for Brown and he will prob
ably be here Wednesday. Brown will be
asked to translate the book and if he refuses 10
do so they will endeavcr to have it figured out
