Four years ago he went tn rough bankruptcy,
but has since done plenty of business under
another name. Frank says he spoke to Bud
densick couple of times about the quality
of the mortar and the builder replied that it
would be all right. 1t is said that
the building examiner made a protest against
the method of erecting these houses to the
department, and was soon removed to an
other district Inspector Doench made
hasty examination of the other buildings
near by erected by Buddensick and remarked
that he thought he would order extensive
alterations in them. There were
MANY NARROW ESCAPES.
Andrew Love and John Gamer were

persons are still in the ruins.

The BIackfeet Loyal.

special TO Ine GioDe.
OTTAWA, Ont, April 13.-In the house of
commons to-day Sir John Macdonald read a
telegram from Crowfoot, chief of the Black
feet, dated at Blaclfeet Crossing, April 10.
The chief said that he and his tribe would be.
loyal to the queen. The young men were to
90 to work on the reserve and raise their
crops, and they hoped that if they raised
more than they required the government
wonld help them to get it disposed of. He
(Crowfoot) did not know what to believe, but
they were to shut their ears to everything
but what was told them by the govern
ment. They do not ask anything
from Mr.. Denny but ask the government for
SOME tobacco. They also desired that Mr..
Denny, who was formerly Of the mounted
police, should be sent to them, and whatever
Happened they were to be loyal to the queen.
The message was signed by Crowfoot. A
message from Lieut.. Gov. Dewdney says that
he and Father Lacombe had had satisfac-
tory meeting with Crowfoot. Father La
combe says the meeting was most enthusi-
astic and the reception accorded them was
also of the very best kind.

Four Thousand postoffices Vacant.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, April 13.-On Saturday last
there were 1000 of the smaller postoffices va
cant by reason of the expiration of the terms
of the present Republican incumbents.
There are not less than 5000 bashful Demo
Gratis who covet these places. They don't
pay much, of course, but they are generally
held by those who combined storekeeping
with the Office, and where the postmaster is
the people will come to trade. 1t is asked
with good deal Of sensible pertinence why
can't Democrats at least get these offices
which are vacant. Gov. Curtin some time
ago made the remark that cross-road post
office was worth ten votes TO the political
party controlling it. The excuse now offered
by the postmaster general for not placing
Democrats in these offices is that the depart
ment is crippled because of the
absence of his first assistant, aud to him is
the duty assigned of selecting postmasters
not presidential There is q good deal of
logic in this excuse. The first assistant post
master general is Malcolm Hay of Pennsyl
vania, whom every friend declares to be a
hustler. But Mr.. Hay is sick. He has not
vet been able to take hold, and may not be
for weeks, if ever. Ex-Postmaster General
Hatton when he first saw Mr.. Hay said he
would not be able, by reason of i'll health, to
manage his desk. If each country post
master is worth ten votes the mathematical
Democrat can easily figure up how many
votes are jeopardized when he multiplies
1000 by ten.

The wales Court Martial

WAsHTyeToy, April 13.-The court mar
tlal, appointed to try ex-surg. Gen. Wales,
will reconvene at the navy department to-
morrow, to which date the trial was post
poned, at the request Of the accused, when
the court first met month ago. The trial
win be held, naval officials say, without re-
gard to any decision that the district court
may make Oh the pending habeas corpus ap-
plication Of the ex-surgeon general, which
looks to trial by jury instead Of by court
martial. a refusal on his part TO appear be-
fore the latter, the officers say, win be con-
sidered coptempt, and will be treated ac-
cordingiy.

Another Naval Scandal.

WASHINGTON, April 13.-Mention was
made two or three days ago of scandal
raised against Paymaster General Smith in
connection with beef contract. There is to
be an investigation, but Smith is not the only
one whose action will be considered. 1t ap-
pears that there is secret history behind
these charges against Smith, and that Pay
Inspector Stevenson played prominent part
in it, The latter, who is nominally on duty as
fleet paymaster Of the North Atlantic squad
ron, now at Aspinwall, has been here some
time scheming for Smiths place as
chief of the bureau of provisions and
clothing. 1t is asserted that Stevenson
not only worked the case against Smith, but
secured the publicity of it. This isn't Il e
first navy department sensation that Steven
son has been involved in. He had a lively
time of it a few years ago on his own ac
count. When he was up for examination
for promotion to his present grade, he came
very near failure. Indeed, one board re-
ported against his being morally and profes-
sionally qualified for promotion, and it re-
quired considerable eloquence on the part of
Robert Ingersoll to Offset the arrfagn ment
of him as paymaster and gentleman
made by Mr.. Simous of the attorney gen.

Likewise the Cattlemen in the Oklahoma
Country.
WASHINGTON, April 13.-The Post to-mor-
row morning will print an interview between
Capt. Couch, the leader of the Oklahoma
'sboomers,'' and the secretary of the interior
with regard to the Oklahoma lands, in the
course of which Secretary Lamar said:
.sWhat is it you wish?''
"I want to know what course the admins
tration has determined to pursue with refer
ence to Oklahoma and its settlers" replied
Capt. Couch.
ssWell, sir, I will state to you the policy
of this administration with regard to this
Oklahoma country,'' said the secretary. cit
considers the Oklahoma territory, on which
the people you represent are proposing to
make settlements, as within and part
of the Indian territory. the admins
tration regards it as not part
of the public domain open to
entry and settlement and acquisi-
ton of titles under the land laws
of the United States, being Indian country,
that is, territory acquired and reserved for In
dian occupancy. The government is pledged
to the protection of 1t and the security of the
Indians from intruders. No white persons
have the right 10 go tnere anu reslue WITHOUT
permit, and when they do go they are in
truders who are acting illegally and wrong
fully. The policy of the president is to exc
cute the pledge of the government
and protect this territory from
the intrusion of white persons who claim that
they have right to enter upon it and that it
was public domain, subject to presumption
and homestead or settlement. 81
~ as this the final decisfon?" asked Capt.
Couch.
'It is, and will be enforced" replied Mr..
Lamar.
In reply to a further question. Secretary
Lamar said the administration was deter
mined that the cattle men on the Oklahoma
reservation should leave. They will not be
permitted to Craze their cattle within the
limits of that territory. He repeated the
declaration with emphasis.

War on the Canadian Pacific.

Canadian steamboat owners express much
indignation over what they term an attempt
on the part of the Canadian Pacific railway
to monopolize the lake carrying trade be-
tween Sarnia and Georgian bay ports, and
the Lake Superior terminus of the road at
Port Arthur. The railway company's boats
are much faster, and last year it cut rates to
starve all competitors. This discrimina alton
rendered competition impossible, as the rail-
way steamers were given all the freight.
With view to putting a stop to this, meet
ing of the Ontario boatmen was held at
Toronto last week to urge that the Canadian
Pacific steamers be withdrawn. The meeting
ended by committee being appointed TO go
to Ottawa to ask the government to see Ihat
no discrimination IN boats be made between
Port Arthur and the other terminal ports.

Internal Revenue Collectors.

cpcClut W UlOUt
WASHINGTON, ADril 13.-In view of what
appears on the surface to be an indisposition
or unnecessary delay on the part otthe ad-
ministration in making changes in the force
of internal revenue collectors, it is proper to
state that the necessities of the service require
shat the collection of special taxes which
become due on the 1st of May, should be made
by the present force. This collection should
undoubtedly occupy the entire month of
May, and Secretary Manning and Commits
sioner Miller are both disposed to allow the
collectors in good standing the privilege of
settling their accounts to the close Of the
general fiscal year ending June 80 next.
During the ensuing month of June the COM
missioner of internal revenue viii determine
the amount of allowance TO be made to
various collectors for the expenses of their
collection districts. The number of depu-
ties and the pay of the same, which will
hinge upon the possible consolidation
and changes of districts as they now
exist Commissioner Miller viii make special
effort to reduce the expenses of the internal
sum, aud to that end it is possible that
several districts will be consolidated, and the
services of their collectors dispensed with.
There viii be few If any changes at present
in the force of internal revenue agents, but
in proper time this branch of service will be
thoroughly organized.
Gen. Sewell, the present supervising rev.
enue agent stationed at Washington will
doubtless be superseded BY an incumbent
specially chosen By Commissioner Miller.

Great excitement prevails. No one had
