The Rascally Washington Bankers.

The Washington Star says: Disclosures show
that the failure of the banking house of Mid
dleton & Co., was not only most disgraceful,
but one of the most disastrous on record. Pro-
perry left for safe keeping, good margins on
stocks, charity funds, and all Of the deposits,
and in fact everything, has been swept away
and used by this firm until it is doubtful if il
pays q cent or a mill on the dollar. 1t is shown
that they have been giving funds to make pur-
chases which they have simply passed to their
own credit and spent. Dickmal, formerly Mid
dleton's partner i'll New York. said that if the
Middletons had any defense or explanations to
make, they could very easily appear before the
creditors committee and show if these large
sums were lost through failures i'll ordinary
business channels, or had been, as openly
charged, deliberately stolen. Some of the Off
GERS were before the grand jury recently Ell
dcavoring to secure the Indictment of the Mid
dletons for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses. The developments are not yet made
public, but promises some very ugly features.

tary service. The value of a man Us O
fighting machine is, among the military
powers of Europe, of much more conse'
civil society. In most countries prep
aration for the church is attended with
no other combative tendencies than the
conflict Of creeds; but where society is
based upon the sword, it is natural that
the cassock should have to yield to it

The House Committee on the Re-
form of the Civil Service has submitted
a unanimous report against repeating
the reform law Of last year. The COM
mittee consists of Messrs. Mutchler, Of
Pennsylvania; Cox, of New York; Glenn
ents, of Georgia: Hoblitzell, of Mary
land; Finerty, of Illinois Barksdale, Of
Mississippi; Seymour, of Connecticut;
Robertson, of Kentucky, 8 democrats,
and Bingham, ofPennsylvania; Phelps,
of New Jersey; Willard, of New York;
Lyman, of Massachusetts,, aud Hit, of
Illinois, 5 republicans. The report is
not only unanimous, but it is emphatic
and unqualified. 1t recognizes the evils
OF patronage" it condemns the "spoils
system;" it attributes the maintenance
OF the system to both parties, and holds
both responsible for the duty of up
roofing it. 1t expresses the conviction
OF the committees that much good has
already been done, and that much more
can be done. And it all concludes as
follows: "Your committee, entirely
satisfied with the thorough conscien-
tious, and non-partisan work of the Civil
Service Commission, are justified in the
belief that its continuance will aid in q
large degree in eradicating the preva-
lent evils Of the civil service of the gov
eminent, remove just complaint, and
restore public confidence in the work
performed by the subordinate officials.

repeal of the law"

went insane on the subject of religion. The
