BURNED WITH VITRIOL.
Horrible Punishment of q Man by a

Horrible Punishment of a Man by "A
Woman Whom He Owed Money.
CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-Joseph Schneider
lies in critical condition in his home No.
643 Third street. His eyes, mouth and
breast are horribly burned with vitrlol,
and the attending physician says there is
doubt about his recovery, and that in any
event he will lose his sight. Some time
ago Schneider borrowed, it is said, 81, 200
from Mrs. Stradleman.
A FAILURE TO PAY.
He failed to pay it, and she sued him
and obtained a judgment for 5000. This
was not paid until about two weeks ago,
when Schneider got married. Before the
marriage he is said to have compromised
the matter with Mrs. Stradleman by pay
ing her $50. Last night he accidentally
met Mrs StradlemaR AZ the corner Of
State and Thirty-second street. They had
some words, when the woman, as quick
as fash, dashed the entire contents of a
large bottle of vItriol into his face.
HORRIBLE INJURIES.
He was removed 10 neighboring drug
store where it was found that the liqu i'd
had penetrated his eyes, run down his
mouth, causing his tongue to swell so
that he can scarcely speak, and then
trickled all over the upper portion of his
body. He was removed TO his home. The
woman escaped after throwing the vltrio!
and will probably not be arrested, as
Schneider informed the police that he did
not intend to prosecute, and requested
that she be rot arrested.

CIVIL SERVICE GUARDIANS.
The New Commissioners Meet-Th
Sterling Case Considered.

The New commissioners Meet-The
Sterling Case Considered.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Col. W. L.
Trenholm, who succeeds Judge Thoman
as civil service commissioner, arrived in
the city last night. To-day he took the
oath of Office, and with the other two
commissioners called on the President.
After leaving the White House the new
commission held its first meeting. The
only business transacted was the elec-
tiOn OF Mr.. EdgertOn as president.
The Sterling case was discussed
informally, but no conclusion was ar
rived at. The report Of the examiners at
New York was received to-day. 1t shows
that Mr.. Sterling passed twenty-fOurth
on list of thirty, with an average OF
fraction over 90 in the examination for
custOm-hOuse weighers. The commission
will hold another meeting tomorrow,
when the question Of whether the entire
list of those who passed successful eX-
animation for weigher at the New York
custom-hOuse shall be sent to the appoint
ing power or whether only the four high
est on the list shall be certified, will be
decided.
CLEvELAND's INTENTIONS.
Some of the Democratic statesmen, now
in town, after thinking over the Presi-
dents remarks about civil service reform
published last week, have come to the re-
markable conclusion that the President
intended to intimate that the civil service
regulations would be so amended under
the new Civil Service Commission
as TO make the way Of the
ofiiceseeking Democrat straightout easy.
They say In effect that "tAe President is
all right after all. He's not mugwump,
and he does not purpose to let the mug
wump purposes of the old commission
control the action of the new CON-
mission. He's going to let down the
bars and let the boys in" 1t would
seem to be almost needless to say t.sat
there Is nothing in this theory. The bars
are not to be let down, and the boys are
not to be let in any more quickly than
they have been. ANY changes that may
be made In the regulations by the new
Civil Service Commission will strengthen
rather than weaken them.

BINIETALIsM IN EURoPE.
The Latin Monetary Union Continued
for Five Years.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-It was learned
at the State Department that prior to the

Europe in relation to the question of gold
and silver coinage. the President delegat-
ed George Walker, the present Consul

ardent bimetalist and advocate of the use
OF silver as coinage, and a writer upon

sions of congress OF the States comprising
the Latin Union, and make a report of

lows:
WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 8, 1855.

tinues unabated interest in the question of
silver coinage You will make known our
readiness and desire 20 enter into negotiations
with other governments. to the end of MAIN
tanning the monetary standard of silver in as
ISOLATION with gold. The Senate OF March 30
last adopted resolution requesting such ne
equations, and slthough the lateness OF con
slderatlon in the Senate prevented its cOnsid-
Grafton by the House, it sufficiently repre-
sents the view Of the executive to authorize
the declaration you are instructed TO make.
"BAYARD."

retary Bayard was introduced by Senator
Aldrich. 1t was as follows:
Resolged. etc, That the President Of the

Union and such other foreign powers as he
shall deem advisable, with the purpose of
securing such treaties with them as shall bind
the nations agreeing thereto to open their re-
spectlve mints to tree coinage Of silver with
full legal tender power at such uniform rate
as shall be agreed upon.
MR.. WALKERS COURSE.
Although not formally admitted to their
deliberations, Mr.. Walker held discus
siOns with the members of the congress,
and addressed to them certain obserya-
tions indicative of the profound interest
of che United States in the important
question of blmetalism. Mr.. Walkers
dispatches to the department transmit
copies of his 'obserVations" which, in
English and French, were laid before the
delegates. The final action of the con-
gress is announced by Minister McLane
