No More Dismissals or Appointments to
be Made for the Present-Ohen-
sive Partisanship Cry too IndeG-
mite in Its Meaning.

WASHINGTON, July 13-The Evening
Star gives prominence to the following
The President has called Il halt. A little
over week ago the order went out to all
the departments that all dismissals and
appointments to fill places not vacant,
must stop at once. A week ago a stop
was put to all the work in the appoint
ment division of the treasury department,
and the appointment clerk was told that
no more commissions were to be made
out, or papers considered until further
orders, and Il lot of changes that were con
templated by him We're killed in their
inception. Commissioner of Pensions
Black was sent for personally by the
President and was given to under
stand that the offensive partisanshp cry
had been too indefinite in its meaning,
and that no more changes in his Office
were to be made until there was a thor
ough understanding on the subject on the
part of he President The result was that
orders for number of changes in the
pension Office were COuntermanded and
everything put at standstill The
President it is understood, then
had an understanding with the heads
of the pOstofiice and other departments
declaring his policy to be to stand by the
civil service reform declarations in his let
ter to Curtis and his address on the 4th OF
March. Removal for cause, he held tO
mean that, and not removal with excuses.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Mrs. Pollard Saved from Suffocation by the
Intelligence of Her Dog.

NFw YORK, January 3O.-Mrs. Marie An
toinette Pollard, elocutionist and lecturer,
and widow of the Southern historian, Z.
A. Pollard, sat waiting until after midnight
on Thursday night in the front ballroom
on the second floor of No. 45 West Four
teen street. She had locked the door of her
office and the key was in her pocket.
Her coach dog Julia, lay on the
floor beside her chair Prof. B. P Wor-
cester was asleep in the front office. G.
r.. Turner, proprietor of the
artists studio on the top floor of the three
story building, was asleep with his brother
Thomas. Mrs. Pollard was at work on her
new lecture, "The Glorious South of 1885,"
and was so much absorbed in the task that
she did not notice how late it was. Her dog
had been restless and had acted in pc
culiar, nervous manner for some time.
Finally the animal howled ipiteously and
Mrs. Pollard, started from her work, noticed
that it was ] 80 A. NJ. Her room was half
full of smoke at the time, but she had not
noted the fact. She tried to open the hall
door to ascertain where the smoke came
from, but forgot that the key was in
her pocket. Becoming alarmed, she
pounded on the floor leading to the choir
school until she awoke Prof. Worcester.
He opened the door and they went into the
hall together Smoke was rising from the
first floor in dense clouds. The Professor
rarN down to the street and sent out an alarm
of Tire. Then they opened front window
and were helped down the ladder by the
fireman. The flames had started in Bass
ford's store, from an overheated stove, and
had extended to the roof along the stair
ways in the hall. Rooms on the upper
floors had not been invaded when the fire

DESPERATE DYNAMITERS.
Fiendish Attempt to Blow Up a
New York Dry Goods House.
Evidently the Work of Strikers-Two Build
ings Damaged, But no one Hurt.

New YORK, February 1.-At a late
hour last night an explosion took place
underneath the show window of Garry
Brothers dry goods store, Grand and AL
len streets. The window casing and sash
were entirely demolished. At the time Of
the explosion G number Of persons were
passing the spot, but none of them were
injured. The windows of Ridley Bros
were also shattered. The shock was felt
several hundred feet. A lamp on shelf
in the Eldridge Street House, three hundred
feet away,was thrown to the floor. Dishes
in tenement houses III the eneighborhood rat
tied, and the iron stanchions of the Ele-
waited Railroad, near the store, look as
though they had received violent blows.
There is no evidence that the cartridge was
applied to Ridley's store. Had it not been
for the heavy elevated railroad structure
which runs up Allen street between the two
stores, however, the probability is good
part of the west side of Ridley's building
would have suffered. Many of Ridley's EN-
ployes came to the spot to guard the prem
ises. The damage to both buildings is ST.
800. The police are satisfied that the eX-
plosion was the outcome of the strike OF
Garry Brothers employees. Burke, a former
clerk of the firm, and who caused the strike,
was dismissed for failing one night to prop
erly secure the doors of the establishment.
The Dry Goods Clerks Union of which he
is member, tried many methods to secure
his reinstatement. They went so far as to
station men in the vicinity of the store and
ask intending purchasers to boycott the
firm. When the strike was ordered by the
Union,the firm was left without clerk.
Shortly after the explosion four men were
found in the shadow of the livingston
street Station of the elevated road, one of
them, Charles Henry, laborer, who said
he lived at Williamsburg, with severely cut
head and face. The others, VIM. Britton,
waiter: Jas. Daily, a clerk, and Jos.
Lamb, painter, were binding Henry's
wounds. All were arrested and remanded.
To-day lad was arrested, charged with
experimenting in dynamite, at the corner
of Grand and Essex streets, where he suc-
ceeded in dislodging a portion of the horse
car track. 1t could not be connected with
the other explosion.

Injured

NEW YORK, January 30.--The fast ex-
press on the Bound Brook Railroad was
running sixty miles an hour on the out
skirts of Jersey City, when wheel of one
of he forward coaches broke, causing those
which followed to leave the track. The de.
rallied cars crashed into coal train stand
ing on siding, upsetting the cnal cars, and
completely wrecking the coaches. Only

passengers on the train. The whole train,
