Loud and bitter complaint is made by

Instead of tho easy accessibility and al
most unvarying courtesy that obtained
throughout many successive Republican

complainants note and romark upon a

fcrring to IL, he said: "If my lord, the
commissioner, had beon a hastiif aud n
poodle. the reception | got would have
been in accordance with the eternal 1t.

OF course these things are irritating,
but they are not unnatural. For a quar-
ter Of century tho Democratic party has
ben struggling for office, and for nothing
but Office. It has sot up oilice.holdiug as
the chief end aud aim Of man. 1t has not

such long, persistent exaltation of office
holding to produce the haughtiness Of
which Democratic statesmen now make

These new iucumbents hold the prizes
which they have been educated to believe

deavor. They possess that for which

Tho Democratic idea that officials ar'

Com mmnnder Kane at Colon.

The report of Commander Kane, of the
Galcna, concerning the burning Of Colon
and the incidents preceding it serves,
for one thing, to show that he acted
with prudence and flrmness in the trying
position he was placed in. With his
lieutenant the Unitod States consul,
Capt. Dow, OF the Colon, and other
Americans in the hands of the cutthroat
Prestan, and threatened with execution
IL he made any hostile demonstrations,
the rieosssity for groat oirounspootiop on
his part was obvious, and that he was
equal to the emergency is demonstrated
by the fact that in ono way or another
the prisoners were released from the
custody of the insurgept chief, such parts
of the city as escaped destruction saved
by his management, and the arms on tho
Colon prevented from falling into Pres
tau's hands.
A more hot-headed officer in command
ofthe Gaena would probably have opened
fire on Prestan and his followers. Certainly
the provocation to do so was great That
the result would have been to drive tho
insolent ruffisn out of Colon no one can
doubt, but the prisoners in his hands
would almost certainly have been mur-
dred as consequence Of such action.

Mr.. r.Blodgett,and other attorneys addressed

an explosion, as he asked the immediate
foreclosure of the Central Trust mortgage,
which would relieve the branches of the
incumbrance which by its weight held
them together. The counsel for the Cen.
trail Trust Company applied to the court
for an order extending the receivership
to tho consolidated causes and to tho

would be in the line Of Gen. Hubbard's &

THE REPUBLICAN cOngratulates Persia
on the acquisition Of SO eminently de-
sirable minister from tho United States
as the Hon. Bayless w, Hanna, of In

Mr. Hanna is abundantly equipped
with all tho qualities of bonhommorie
and easy adaptability to strange sur

Language Of Persia, and has often do
lighted social circles in his own state by
singing to his own piano accompaniment
his own translations Of Persian songs

many centuries before English literature

OUR Democratic morning contemporary
suggests to the administration that "by

ing with them just what legislation
should be sought, in what shape and for
what purpose, the business Of Congress
will at once assume an importance whi ch
on many occasions heretofore it has failed
10 attain" If we arc not incorrectly ad-
vised this Is not unlikely to happen. The
administration has deep convictions on
one or two great questions. 1t SO happens
that the Republican Senate agrees with
the President and a majority of the
Cabinet on those questions. The Demo.
cratic leader of the Houso-the Hon.

THE NAVY FRAUD CASES.

Judge Macarthur sustRins the Pleas
Against Five Counts In the Indlct-
ments.
Tho argument on the demurrer to tho
indictments recently found against Wm.
II. Dempsey aud John w. Drew, charging
them with presenting false vouchers to
the bureau Of medicine and surgery of tho
Navy Department was continued and con-
cluded In the criminal court last Satu rday.
Justice Macarthur briefly reviewed the
two sections Of the statutes bearing upon
the cases, and thought that the whole
scope aud aim of the statute was TO pro-
toct tho government and to prevent and
punish fraudulent claims presented against
1t; but before parties could be punished,
1t must be absolutely shown that the claim
was fraudulent. aud in every indictment
the fact should be distinctly stated that
the claim was false, fictitious, and fraudu-
lent. Even that was not sufficient. For
whcro an indictment set out that claim
was false, fictitious, and fraudulent it
must be averred in what manner il was
so. In these cases n bill had been set out
Ia support of the claim and averred to be
false, but he did not think that sufficient
bhc IiNuuoA h6No bohO
and averred the claim was false. He
thought, therefore, that this point was
well taken aud applied to five counts in
the indictment, though the sixth and
last count was free from this blemish.
But there was q question raised as to
this count that it failed to show that any
claim was presented, and he held that I'M
til party made q claim upon the United
States there was no otfense committed in
the meaning OF the statute. He thought
the point we'll taken that there must first
be a claim. When this foundation was
laid in the indictment then the prosecu-
tion could go on putting in its support.
He should sustain the demurrer as to
FIVE accounts, and dismi.s it as to the re-
naming one.
District Attorney Worthington gave
notice that on Tuesday he should ask tina,
the defendants.com in and plead and that
day be fixed for their trial.

From reading tho Nautical Gdseite one
would suppose that the executive COM
mitteu OF the National Board of Steam
Navigation had been charged with tho
duty of retaining Gen. J. A. Dumont in
the Office of supervising inspector general.
But such is not the case. The only meet.
ing of tho executive committee had since
the annual meeting Of the board, in Octo-
Der last, was held In New York, at tho
Filth Avenue Hotel. on tho 18th of Jan.
uary. This meeting was called for the
purpose of considering how matters OF
legislation then before Congress could
host be advanced. At that meeting an
effort WAS made, however, to commit the
executive committee to tho approval of an
effort TO retain Gen. Dumont in office, but
upon objections being raised, President
/. l.. Fisher ruled that IL was not within
the province of the committee to take
such action, and the matter was there
| upon dropped without further discussion.
Tue member who made tho objection did
so on tho ground, first, that 1t was not
good policy for tho committee to assume
authority not given by the board, and
which might not be sustained; second,
that tho steam mboatDen Of the Mississippi

and that any action taken by the com.
