FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, Oct. 8, 1885.


Mr.. Dorman b. Eaton resignation
Us one of the civil service commission,
when accepted by the President, will
close the first chapter in the history
the reform movement 1t was due to
Mr.. Eaton's labors more than any
other cause, perhaps, that the present
law was enacted. Mr. Eaton con-
scented to serve on the board until the
rules to carry out the principles Of
the law were framed and tested by
practical experience. Naturally, also,
he desires to remain until tho pending
case, which involves the constitution
atty of the law, is tried. When that
question is settled he feels that the
future of the movement can be entrust-
ed to new hands. Mr.. Eaton's with
drawal will probably result in the en-
tire reorganization of the commission
and in material changes in the rules.
The machinery was perfect, and oil
they ask is that the system may be
perfected and not destroyed. In the
selection of new commission it is
very desirable that men be chosen
who will carry weight with the coun-
try. The salary attached to the office
of commissioner is not large, but tho
position is one of vast influence and
of constantly growing Importance,
No man is too large for the place, and
it is to be hoped that President Cleve-
land will be able to select board
whose names will compel the respect
of the the whole country.
There are very few members of Con-
gross in the city at present, and the
pressure for Office is comparatively
light. The rush that was expected
on the return of the President was
not made, and Mr. Cleveland and his
Cabinet have had tolerably plain sail
ing. The New York, Ohio and Viz
iginia politicians are too much occu-
pied by the more important political
work at home. Apolitician who came
from Ohio the other day says the
prospects are for campaign there al
most as hot as that last fall.
Senator Henderson, of Nebraska,
who spent several weeks in Utah
studying the Mormon problem and
making other personal Investigations,
expresses doubt whether the Edmunds
law will be found effective enough to
destroy the practice Of polygamy. He
is strongly in faver of additional leg
islation on the Utah question, and
says that further delay is doing injus
tice to the Mormons themselves. He
believes more rigorous bill will be
passed by the next Congress. Send
tor Henderson considers the Nor
mons in the light of an alien popula-
ton who hate our nationality and
government, and says the wonder is
that their hatred has not long ago
caused them to break out in open re
bellion. He thinks that Bishop John
Sharps act of pleading guilty may
have salutary effect and be the first
step of Utah's redemption. l..

from Philadelphia to Gap Station. At Down

either go into the smoking car or leave the
train, whereupon he left the train accelerat-

es On crOss-examination he admitted that
he had two drinks before getting on the train,
and that he and two friends with him had a
flask, from which they took one or more
drinks on the Car. The conductor aud sew
eral of the passengers testified that the three
men we're drinking, and were noisy and OBJ
jectionRble to the other passengers. They
paid no attention TO the conductors repeated

Jury that people who drink whiskey in rail-

Forty expert counters and as many clerks
who kept the records, were at work nearly
three weeks during the recent count Of the
money in the United States treasury. The
specie handled aggregated nearly Sl2, ,OOO,-
600 about 81, OOO, 600 silver dollars, $500, 900
minor silver coins, and 81, SOC, 900 in gold
coin. The silver weighed about 27O tons,
and the gold coin about four aud a half tons.
This hard money, strictly speaking, was not
counted, but weighed. The silver dollars,
when originally placed in the vaults, were
put in bags, each containing 8 Il, 900, coin and
bag weighing 59i pounds. The gold was in
bags containing 81, 600 each aud weighing
1sI pounds. An actual count by piece was
only made OF a few bags on the start, TO
ascertain the proper and exact weight Of a
bag Of 81, 900 in silver or 81, 900 in gold and
afterward OF such bags as we're not sati+fac-
tory in weight. Very few bags, either of the
silver or gold, fell short of the standard
weight, and in such instances actual count
showed the required number of coins, but
with a few of them sufficiently abraded to
account for the deficiency in the weight of
the bag and contents. When the last bag
was weighed and the record footed up, not a

The s.ewar, Ca,hedraI organ.

The organ built by the Roosevelts for the
cathedral erected by the widow of A. Il. Stew
art at Garden City, l.. l.. is the largest in
strument Of its kind in the world 1t has 10
stops, 1859 pipes and cost $l00 900. Most
OF II is set in an ootagonal chamber made by
the angle where the trRnsept and ehancel
walls join, fifteen feet in diameter, and ex-
tending from the basement floor upward TO
distance OF forty feet A remarkable feature
is its construction so as to distribute the
sounds in four different parts OF the cathedral
at once, all remaining under control of the
player at the main organ. The four divisions
are classified as follows Chanoel, fifty -four
stops tower, thirty eight stops chapel, ht-
teen stops echo, eight stops Steam power
is employed in Initiating the bellows. There
are double engines of ten horsepower be-
meath the chanoel division to supply it with
compressed air, and the speed is governed,
as far as possible by the rise and fall of the
bellows The greatest novelty Is the electric
chime action, by which thirteen bells in the
organ tower are played from the solo manual
The bells are rung with the same force and
precision as though struck In usual manner,
and may be rung in connection with the mu.
sic that is played on the organ.
