CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
Vice President Hendricks Thinks 1t
is Not an Established Fact.

CHICAGO, Aug. 6.-Vice President Hen
bricks, accompanied by Mrs Hendricks, ar
rived here this morning. In an interview
with representative Of the press, Mr.. Hem
bricks was asked ''Do you think civil SER
vice reform, so called, has become firmly
enough engrafted upon our politics to be
called an established fact?" Mr.. Hendricks
hesitated momentarily, then replied with
some emphasis 81 do not. Nothing can be
called an established fact about which there
is still argument, discussion and division of
opinion" SIT has been intimated Mr. Hen
bricks, in various newspapers that there is
not that cordiality and sameness of purpose
between President Cleveland and your
self that would naturally be expect
ed to characterize the first Democratic
administration in twenty-five years ?"
'Well, as to that it is an invention principal
ly of disaffected representatives OF factions
on the one hand and suspicious and conject-
ures and oftentimes iibeis of partisan organs
of the opposition. People who can intelli-
gently judge of the difference of our posi-
lions will place no credence in such a state
ment. Our relations when we meet are de-
cidedly cordial. l have not seen
but have no doubt when do meet him it
viii be upon terms of most cordial Demo-
cratic fellowship" Mr.. Hendricks took his
departure this afternoon for New York.

RAILWAY MATTERS.
cANADA's NEW OUTLET.

The Bangor Commercial speaks very high
ly of the recent legislation of the Dominion
Parliament in behalf of the trunk line soon
to cross the State of Maine in order that the
Canadian Pacific may secure a winter port
1t says that as the resolutions were passed
without division it is evident the scheme
meets the general appreciation of all sections
of the Dominion, and will tend to allay the
jealousies existing between Quebec the his
torical centre, and Montreal, the commercial
centre Of Canada. The distance by this
route from Montreal to st. Andrews is 43O
miles as against 57S from Quebec, via ST.
Roch, the shortest all Canadian route. 1t
was stated in the debate that the survey
shows it does not vary at any point twenty
miles from a straight line with easy gradients
and favorable curves for large coal trains
During the progress of the debate Sir John
Mcdonald said provision had already been
made for grant to a line through Cape
Breton to either Sydney or Louisburg, and
the government intended to ask Parliament

AN INTERESTING RACE.
The Yachts Puritan and Priscilla
Again Competing.
An Accident Causes the Former to
Lose the Race.

COTTAGE CITY, Mass, Aug. GA stiff
northeast wind was blowing when the yachts
left New Bedford this morning, and this gave
them a full run to Quick's Hole, and dead
beat from there to the finish. The Puritan
was first to cross the starting line, and was
closely followed by the Clytie andsPriscilla.
The Puritan at once flew to good lead, with
the Priscilla next behind. AT three miles
out the Puritan led by half mile and had
increased her lead three-quarter miles. By
the time the destination was reached the
Puritan began to cut off work in beating to
westward. and apparently had the race well
in hand,a this is one of her fayorite courses.
An accident however destroyed her reason
ably certain chances for victory. Without
moments warninRher mainsail came to the
deck on the run, the bolts securing the block
through which runs the throat halliard had
parted, and the Puritan was floating help
lessly in the trough of the sea. 1t was near
ly ten minutes before! the damage could be
remedied and the sail reset somewhat imper-
fectly. Meantime the Priscilla had over
taken her rival, and when the Puritan once
more started on her journey the two
boats were nearly stern and stern.
1t was close fight thence to the finish, but
the Puritan rounded the Polinia, anchored
off the Highlands, some distance ahead,
though losing the race by reason of the ad-
vantage at the start But for the accident,
she would have had an undisputed claim to
being the winner. The old America did
splendidiy and defeated all in her class eX-
cept the Dreadnaught. She led the schooners
0f the feet. The fleet returns to Newport
tomorrow morning and the Genesta Will pro-
ceed TO Boston

New EngIand FIsherles.

To the Editor Of the Press:
The late action of the Boston Fish Bureau
in declaring in favor Of opening our markets
for free admission Of Provincial fish. might
at first glance, without understanding their
position in connection with our fisheries,
look like fire in the rear, or division in
the fish interest as to the policy of tariff pro-
lection.
But such is not the case. The voice of the
Boston Fish Bureau is the voice of commits
sion merchants who have had the handling
of Provincial fish, and now that their ''craft
is in danger they are willing to sacrifice the
New England fisheries rather than accept
lessening of their commissions In other
words it is the voice of a score or less of
middle men in the business, as against the
whole New England fishing interest. When
we speak Of the New England fishing inter
est we do not mean simply the owners of the
vessels, but we include every man who sails
in these vessels, as the protection that would
enable the owners still to continue the bust
ness, aids each man directly, as he engages
for certain share OF what fish are caught,
thus receiving direct benefit by having a pro-
tected market for his fish. In all manufac-
lures that our government are so careful to
protect, the advantage of such protection
comes directly to the stockholders of such
corporations, and only indirectly to the great
class of operatives. In no other branches of
American industries, save the fisheries, does
the policy of protective duties come so di-
rectly to the aid Of actual producers. And
Shall the men who endure so much oil expo
sure and peril for so meagre return, receive
no recognition from government proclaim
ing to be government by the people, for the.
people, especially when that government in
time OF danger, expects to call upon this very
class to man their ships Of war.
And now word in regard to the great
claim that our provincial friends make as to
supplying bait for our fishermen. Is there
way OF supplying bait for their fishermen
Thus far, in all that has heen wqitten of late
iii regard to this fishery question, | have not
seen our bait supply mentioned. What are
the facts? A large proportion of the Nova
Scotia fishermen are hand line fishermen, and
use salted CLANS for bait, and the State of
Maine furnishes about all of this bait. over
6}o0 barrels having been sent from this port
this year. In fact hardly see how our Pro
ylnclal friends could continue their fishing
business without the help of the State Of
Maine, and no mention of this, while great
cry Is made about few barrels of fresh her
ring and squid that are bought by our Glou-
ceSter vessels i'll Proyincialports. The plain
facts are we are furnishing bait to enable
our nelghbOrS to catch fish to supply our
markets, and our government in the past
has been perfectly willing that this unequal
contest should go on, and indeed has aided
our neighbor in the contest by a gift of five
and one-half millions of dollars. Consist
ency thou art jewell L..

SlANDERED GRANT AND DIED.
Fate of the Only Southern Editor Who
Has Spoken iii of the Dead.

NEW YORK, August "a special despatch to
the Evening Post, from Washington, says:
There has been but one newspaper in the South,
SO far as has been observed here, which has spok-
ill of Gen. Grant since his DEATH and has taken
the occasion Of that event to attempt to revive
memories, using his grave for rifle pit. That pa
per was published in Raleigh N. c. The editorial
has been copied in many of the Republican papers
Of the North, with the comment that its appear
anee is a adiscouraging sign of the times.
A gentleman who reached here from North Car
ollna tells curious story about the writer and his
tragic end. The ink upon the paper which con
tanned this article was scarcely dry, and the edi-
ton of the paper had not all been delivered at the
post Office, when the editorof the paper who wrote
the article fell dead.
This editor was convicted as Ku Klux and sen
fenced to ten years in the Albany penitentiary.
The evidence at his trial showed that he was the
leader of the Ku KuX in his section, and had been
guilty of atrociously maltreating a Republican
member of the Legislature from his district, who,
as the result of the whipping, and other abuse,
was very badly crippled. The editor remained III
the Albany penitentary four years. when a petit
tlon for his pardon generally signed in his locali
ty, was presented to Gen. Grant by the very Re-
publican for the abuse of whom he was serving
time. The President granted the pardon. The
man returned to his home, has been in politics
since, but has committed no conspicuous act I'M.
III he made the recent assault upon the memory OF
Gen. Grant, which was so quickly followed by his

Mr.. Stephen and others were sanguine that
Louisburg, being the nearest port to Europe,
would be the great point of departure and
arrival for American and Canadian passen-
gers The Commercial advises General
Manager Tucker Of the Maine Central to
keep a sharp eye on the new road in order
that any overflow of traffic may be diverted
toward Bar Harbor, where Mr. Tucker is
desirous of establishing great seaport.

Assaulted with Deadly Weapon.
Late last evening Mrs. P. G. White called
at a boarding house on Essex street in this
city and inquired if Miss Mccarthy a dress
maker, was there. She was answered affirm
atively, and Miss Mccarthy came into the
parlor. In few moments Mrs. White ac-
cused her of having intimacy with Mr..
White, which she neither admitted nor de-
MED, whereupon Mrs. White drew revolver
and fired at her, but missed her aim, and
Miss Mccarthy escaped to another part of
the house, and Mrs. White was allowed to
depart. The latter then went to house
where her husband was boarding, they not
living together, and drew the revolver on
him, but he took it from her. No arrests
