Rnssia Expelling German Residents.
The supposition that the expulsion of the
Russian Poles from Prussian territory, where
they had settled to escape Russian despotism
was due to an understanding between the gov
ernments of Russia and Germany seems to
have no sufficient foundation. Russia, it sp-
pears, is anything but plea with the action
of the Prussian authorities, and is engaged in
the execution of retalatory measures Many
Germans who have boon residing in Russia are
being forced to return to their native country.
Hardly any notice is given them that they will
be required to return, and much hardship and
suffering attends their expulsion. In many
instances these refugees reach the German
frontier in destitute condition.

he intended for the young lady's use, and on

CoRYDAN, KY, June This town was
greatly excited over the appearance of 250 men
in its streets at midnight, Saturday, bearing
letters for the county commissioners and cer-
tain county officials. The men came from
bill back Of Corydan, and, completely masked,
rode into the town in very orderly manner,
deposited their mail in the Office, and returned.
The horses, &s well as the riders, were mask
ed. The tenor OF the letters to the commits
sioners was to demand of them that an in-
vestigation of the county officers sffairs
should be made at once without fear or faver.
For some time past it has been known that
the county treasurer's books were not in good
shape, and an investigation by the commits
sioners was not very satisfactory. A few days
ago it was discovered that $40 900 in county
orders were outstanding, and the debt of the
county, with 500, 900 premium in floating debt,
is over $4,000. A few years ago the county
was free of debt and the people are not satisfied
with the rapid accumulation of their obiga-
tions The letters to the officials were in the
nature of positive requests to throw no OBJ
stacles in the way Of complete investigation
of the county's affairs

NEW YORK, June 1.-The president of one of the
largest and busiest banks in the vicinity of Wall
street said one day last week; "Money is simply a
glut in the market. The banks are becoming mon
ey poor" The speaker was one of the last of the
New York bank presidents TO cling to the custom of
paying interest the deposits in banks of discount
he abandoned the custom recently, except in few
special cases, because the present condition of the
banking business did not warrant such payments.
The same bank president refused outright few
days ago to accept deposit of S150,0O0. His
bank has more money than it knows what to do
with. .. ID. Baldwin, president of the Fourth Ma
honal Bank, said there was about SCI 900 600 of
cash lying idle in the banks. He declared that his
bank would be glad to loan money on call at per
cent. per annum, but there seemed to be no de-
mand for large amounts. Henry Clews remarked:
The want OF confidence among investors has left

WARRINGTON, June IA. f. Howard, Col

rendered his resignation to the Secretary of the

held the Office siace December "a, 1873, during

Consistency therefore compels me firmly to ad-

A Speedy Adjustments of their Troubles
MOI Pr0huhE0

PIrTsBURG, Pa, June 1.-Workmen in the iron
mills where the new scale has not been signed
went out on strike this morning. Thus far ten
out of the thirtyeght iron and steel mills in this
district have signed the scale, but there does not
seem to be much prospect for general re-
sumption in near future, Among the iron manufac-
turers there seems to be determined opposition to
the terms proposed by the union, and if their
ances are earnest the chances tor speedy adjust
ment of the difficulties are exceedingly slim. The
amalgamated association authorities still expr ess
themselves confident of coming out on top in the
present struggle.
NEW YORK, June 1.-Abram s. Hewitt today
said he did think the strike of iron workers in
Pittsburg and the west would affect the interests in
this city or neighborhood. The amalgamated asso-
ciatjon and iron and steel workers extended over
the whole:country but it was only in the western
district that it was insisting tee adoption of
scale submitted by its committee to the manufac-
turers. AS there was falling market and the ca
pacity for iron manufacture in this country was
much greater than required the western trouble
was not likely to be reflected in the east.

MONTREAL. June 2.--Iast week the customs
authorities here seized large consignment of
patent medicines from the establishment of j.
9. Aver & Co., Lowell, Mass. The officers
claim that the firm has defrauded the
Canadian revenue out of at least $4,000 a
year for the last ten or fifteen years by under
valuing their consignments. The firm defend
their action by saying that the medicines were
not compounded, and were, therefore, sent in
bulk and valued merely at cost. An old en-
ploye of the firm named Young testified, how.
ever, that the goods were ready for sale at a
price 30 per cent. higher than they wers in
voiced at. This witness gave some extraordi-
nary evidence, and sWore that in order to pre-
vent his coming to Canada to testify he was
arrested at Nashua, N. H., and locked up for
ten hours without any charge, and after he had
been searched from head to foot was liberated
and advised to return to Lowell, Mass. The
goods now under seizure are valued at
$150,000.
