take.
II. Hoyt is young man who lives in st.
Paul and who had i'll luck upon the occa-
sion of Minneapolis visit the other day.
He went into the First National bank and
purchased draft. In so doing he inadver-
tently left behind him his wallet containing
$125. A stranger was also in the bank on
a similar mission. The latter drew out
$1,000 on draft and was about
to take his departure, when Mr..
Side noticed the pocket book lying on the
counter. MI. Side naturally supposed the
wallet belonged to the stranger. and calling
him back handed it to him. The stranger
had no hesitancy in taking the unexpected
prize. Placing it in his inside pocket he
hurried out and quickly disappeared in the
crowd on Nicollet avenue. Soon after Mr.
Hoyt discovered his loss and returned, but
too late. The money was gone. He spent
the day in searching the city, but all ell
deavors were futile. TWO ladies, who re-
side on the east side of the river, and who
were in the bank at the time mentioned,
were waited upon, but they could give no
information respecting the man who carried
off the money

THE LABOR SITUATION.
Few Radical Changes--Painters to

COnfer--AmOng Other Trades.
Yesterday brought no radical changes in
the labor situation, as far as a majority of
the trades are concerned. With the sash,
door and blind operatives, it is evident no
definite agreement will be reached until
concerted action of the manufacturers of
the Northwest can be obtained. The Min
neapolis Sash, Door and Blind company has
agreed to pay ten hours pay for nine hours
work, provided the men work on as usual
until general had been effected. johnson
s. Hurd shut down and threw out ninety
men, but the other factories are working as
usual.
The plumber situation is unchanged since
Yesterdays report, and the same may be
said of the carpenters and bricklayers
Quite number of non-union carpenters
have come to the city and gotten employ
ment, and while several small contractors
have yielded to the demand others are
holding out, endeavoring to fill up with nom
union men. The union men are swelling
their ranks and are quite confident of ulti-
mate victory.
The greatest interest, just at this time, is
centering in the painters and there are pros
poets of general strike. With those few

insurance agents cause an lnveSti
CATION of Sylvester Chase's Death.
Since the drowning of S. B. Chase of the
Lurline Boat club at Lake Calhoun on Sum
day last number Of persons have advanced
the rather startling theory that the drown
ing was not accidental, but was premedi-
tated. 1t is urged in substantiation of their
claim that short time ago Mr.. Chase
took out $4,000 insurance policy
in the Travellers, the policy to
remain in force one year, and that he sui
cided in order that his family might get the
benefit of the money. This idea is secuted
by the relatives and friends of the dead
man, but not by the insurance agents who
became alarmed and insisted upon post
mortem examination, which was conducted
yesterday morning after the adjournment
of the inquest, by Drs. Simpson and
Evans. The stomach showed no
traces of any poison OF in fact of any sub
stance that would cause death, A slight
irregularity in the formation of one of the
heart valves was the only thing discovered,
but this had no bearing Oh the case r. E.
Boder, who witnessed the drowning, testi-
fed at the inquest that M. Chase seemed to
have been taken with cramps, and made no
effort to save himself. He was closely
questioned by A. l.. Levi, the attorney for
the insurance company, but nothing was
brought out which tended to show that Mt. 1
Chase had suicded. The fact that an
empty brandy bottle was found floating in
the vicinity where he was drowned, lost.all
interest when it became known that MI.
Chase was a man who never touched liquor
The inquest will be resumed tomorrow
morning, when certain witnesses are re-
Quested to be present.
The funeral occurred yesterday forenoon
from 1716 Second avenue south, and was
attended by the boat club and large num-
Der of other friends. The Rev. Dr.. Sim
mons conducted the services. The pail
bearers were John L. Armory, George E.
Higgins, NJ. E. Eddy. G. F. Haney, E. B,
Clement and A. Chase. The floral decora-
tons were handsome in the extreme The
mains were inferred IN Layman's ceme-

CURRENT COMMENT.

Some of the city pastors. to use street ex-
preston, took tumble to themselves Mon
day morning. just after they had waited their
sympathy to the people of the destroyed Uni
tartan church. They solemnly decided the
cause of this church was a real bad one, ep-
posed to Christianity inf1del to the last de-
gree, and so on, and therefore they could give
it no money. Then they tackled about and
tender ed them sympathy! There is Free
Masonry in the ministry and they understand
these things, but the-public will be at a loss
to know how it is that this Unitarian church
is too bad to give money to, but is good
enough to receive sympathy. '.Not cent for
aid, but millions for sympathy is the way
the ministers paraphrase the old saying.

was the matter, when third man walked up,
reluctantly drew four half dollars from his
pocket and in q said voice said: "Give me
credit for So, please, Mr.. Secretary" Then
light dawned on me, and I began to
comprehend that the men had mistaken
me for the talented secretary, who from a
personal standpoint, does resemble me to
great extent, having tow-colored hair, thin
face, and generally broken-down look. Be-
fore could make an explanation the secre-
tary came In, seated himself next to me, and
calmly reaching over took the money, at the

Two Trains on One Track.

If the Harrisburg correspondent OF the
New York S,m is reliably advised and
makes faithful report, Boss Quay is wreSt-
ling with plan to captivate the liquor
league that is intended TO be as adroit and
is yet as bare-faced as his scheme in the
state convention to stay the Prohibition
detection from his party.
1t seems that at the sessions of the liquor
league in Pittsburg to-day, Montooth, who
was a candidate before the convention for
lieutenant governor, is to deliver an ad-
dress of welcome Col. II. {. Keller, who
was voted for in the convention for seCre-
tary of internal affairs, and is saloon
keeper in Reading Harry f. Grafin, Sec
retary of the Republican state committee,
who is a saloon-keeper at Pottstown, and a
number of other saloon and hotel-keepers
in Philadelphia are 10 figure as delegates
and use their influence to persuade the
liquor men that the Prohibition plank was
a bait to lure the Temperance men and
means nothing serious to the disadvantage
of the liquor interests.
The circumstance that Gen. Beaver joined
the party at Tyrone and rode out with
them, drinking soda by the way, may have
been only coincidence; it may have hap
pened by design.
This is not good year for politician!

LANCASTER. JULY ID, 1856.
An Oracular Organ.

Our esteemed silly contemporary, the
Philadelphia Press, has discovered fresh
Democratic boom for governor this time
its victim is Maxwell Stevenson-a very
estimable and reputable man, by the way
It is needless to say that according TO the
Press Mr.. Randall is pushing Stevenson
as he is also, according to our veracious
contemporary, pushing Wallace, Guthrie,
Scott and Black, with some counties not
heard from.
The Press, in pursuance of its latest dis
covery of a" Randall candidate, makes
ga Democratic city leader of familiar
fame get off the following remarkable
statement in behalf of Mr.. Stevenson :
" When he ran on the Greenback- Labor
ticket for Congress in the First district
in 1878, he polled more votes in that
district than Mason, the Labor
candidate for governor, polled il
the entire city. The Democratic candidate
for governor was the late Gen. McCandless
Stevenson got more votes in several of the
Democratic wards than McCandless did
although he was the regular Democratic
nominee"
Into what pellucid fountain of Demo
cratic truth does our esteemed silly con.
temporary let down its busy buckets! Let
the Democrats beware a few more blaz
ing fire brands from the Press will rend
the party into thousand warning frag
ments, which will then be exterminatet
piecemeal by Boss Quay.

A COnsiderate Mugwump.

Mr.. ID. II. Chamberlain, native of
Maine, ex-carpet-bag governor of South
Carolina and for some years past resident
of New York city, is one of the ablest and
most characteristic Mugwumps of the
country. Although an i'll flavor of the re-
construction politics of the South still
clings to him, he is, we believe, man of
character and of good repute. He certainly
has well recognized ability, and in the last
presidential campaign he dealt some tell
ing blows at Blaine. He is out
now in a vigorous letter to the New
York Times in which he points
out with much clearness why President
Cleveland--and presumably his heads of
departments and appointees to leading
places--cannot reasonably be expected to
make no discrimination between Democrats
and Republicans in appointments to Office
even under a civil service reform regime.
With fairness and considerateness that
his class have not usually shown, Mr..
Chamberlain takes into account the cir
eumstance that when the new administra-
ton came in it found the civil service
packed with Republicans, and they and
their patrons claim the protection of the
new system simply to keep their places.
With muchf force Mr.. Chamberlain writes :
For "a years the civil service has been mad @
the engine OF party power, its ranks crowded,
far and wide, high and low, with the hepch'
men and workers Of the Republican partv.
such debasement was never before seen In a
free country, the United States Senate and
President Arthur, Tor example, actually en-.
tering into an express compact 10 best5 " On
Malone, of Virginia, the whole patronaSe nf
that state, from top 10 bottom, as the price ot
his support OF the Republican party in the
Senate. The civil service of the United States
embraces l200O0 persons, OF whom all but
about 500. or one one hundred and fftieti
part were Republicans. Now, say for my
6eLL that not only was such q result an out
rags ON dscency, but it was and is still, the
1EoGf serious and just ground OF bindranct
and difficulty which the president and thoss
who think with him have encountered In
their civil service work. Who that will make
