The Norfolk Navy.Yard Troubles.

WASHINGTON, March II. - Repre-
sentatives Boutelle of Maine and
Brady of Virginia authorize the fol-
lowing statement in answer to the
letter of Commodore Truxton in re-
gard to the conduct of affairs at the
Norfolk navy-yard. They say it is un-
mistakably shown that Commodore
Truxton did cause the removal OF an
honorable inscription from the dry
dock, as charged, and has given no
reason therefor, and that he caused
the wholesale removals OF Union
soldiers and sailors and re-
placed them with ex-Confeder
ates, in fragrant violation of law.
Commodore Truxton says he always
doubted Mr.. Lyons's loyalty to the
government at the time OF its greatest
need, and in support of this imputa-
ton he presents in his letter q card
alleged to have been published by Mr..
Lyons in 1861, protesting allegiance to
the Confederate States. Mr.. Lyons
denounces the card as an unqualified
forgery and falsehood, and he so de-
nounced it publicly at the time of its
first appearance, during heated po-
litical campaign in 1868. Mr.. Lyons
has copy of the Norfolk Union news
paper of that date, in which he pub
lished his statement, denying that he
had ever issued or authorized such a
card, denouncing the authors as sun
mitigated liars" and challenged the
production of any paper containing
such a publication in 1861. II is Gu
rious to find, says the statement, that
one colored man, ]. f. Fuller, a prom
inent member of the Grand Army of
the Republic, removed by Commodore
Truxton for alleged Offensive parti-
sanship," has since been appointed by
Gov. Fitzhugh Lee as member Of
the Board Of Visitors to the colo ed
normal school of Virginia, so that the
United States naval cOmmandant at
Norfolk has carried political intoler-
ance to a degree unthought Of by the
Democratic Governor at Richmond.

Mr.. GLADSTONE, the telegraph in
forms us, will submit to Parliament
his home rule and land measures en-
bodied in the same bill. The scheme
has not yet been communicated to the
Cabinet in detail, but the best infor-
nation obtainable leads to the expec-
tation that there will be no secession
from the Ministry on account of un-
willingness to support the proposals,
except possibly that of Mr.. Trevelyan,
who is known to have expressed his
determination to withdraw rather
than lend his support to any measure
which seeks TO deprive the Imperial
Parliament of any part of the govern
ment of Ireland Lord Harrington
and his Whig followers will resist the
passage Of the bill, but Mr.. Gladstone
is sanguine of his ability to carry it in
spite of them. If successful in the
House of Commons and defeated in
the House Of Lords, it is the intention
of the Premier to renew the contest at
the autumn session without an appeal
to the country. Its final passage is
only a question Of time. A growing
public sentiment in England is in ia
VOr Of it.

Washington held a meeting last even
ing and after discussing the rumored
strike of postal clerks as telegraphed
from Pitts urg promptly instructed
their secretary to inform the Post
master-General that they disclaimed
all knowledge of or sympathy with,
the reported revolt. The Postmaster
General, in acknowledgment, thanked
the clerks for the sentiments expressed
in their letter and repeated his prom
ises of year ago that the clerks in
the postal service should not be dis
turbed except for cause. Col. John
Jamison, General Superintendent of
Railway Mail Service, in response to
the reported troubles and he had no
fears OF anything serious The Post
master-General lived up to his prom
ises of a year ago very rigidly and
where removals had been made they
were made for good and sufficient rea-
sons. He also said that in case Of a
strike the service would be embar-
rassed but slightly as:there is always
a large reserve force on hand
which can be promptly utilized.

representative of the order in the mat
ter of the proposed legislation, APP
peared before the HoCse Com
mittee on Labor this evening

vict labor, national incorporation OF
trades unions and other questions.
The railroad troubles in the West
were only touched upon with view
to enlarging upon the necessity OF
remedial legislation.

AN article, in another column, from
the Little Rock Gazette, setting forth
the easy way in which the so-called
cotton market of st. Louis is manipu-
lated to suit customers, will be found
well worth reading. AT the beginning OF
the season the prices of the staple are
put up above the current rates at greal
cotton points, and toward the middle
ARE knocked down an eighth or a
quarter less than the rate made by the
law OF supply and demand, so that
buyers may be encouraged to make
purchases 1t is in this sort of "Cheap-
John" fashion that st. Louis is trying
to maintain a market for cotton that
never existed, save in the Imagination
of few adventurous spirits. Markets,
st. Louis ought to learn, are not built
up in that way, but by honest and
honorable dealing and fair play.

Protests Against Reduction Of the
Tariff

WASHINGTON, March ia delega-
ton of Philadelphia Textile Associa-
ton appeared before the Committee
on Ways and Means to-day with an
argument to show hat the proposed
reduction of duty on textile products
would be unjust to the manufacturer
of yarns and goods, to the farmer and
to the workmen. Mr.. Ferguson OF
New York, representing. the thread
manufacturers, said this interest could
not be conducted with a lower duty.
Mr.. Sanford of Fall River, Mass, a
manufacturer of fine cotton yarns,
argued against a reduction of duty.
John A. Walker, representing the
lead pencil industry, spoke against
lessening the tariff on pencils.
Mr.. McMeans, representing 400
workmen, of the Pennsylvania Salt
Manufacturing Company, read a pro-
test against any reduction of the duty
on soda. Soda, he said, was made
from salt by his company. The work
men were living in a contented way,
but had become apprehensiye of the
results of the tar fl agitation. All they
desired was to be let alone.

.LABoRING men throughout the
I hited States have the sympathy of
Z he press in their efforts to better their
condition, and every reasonable, fair
minded, unpreiudiced man is proud to
point to the tendency of the age to
ameliorate the condition of the toiler,
which, as the Baltimore Sun says, is
its crowning glory. Protests and
strikes against low wages or efforts to
lower them are means to a desirable
end. Laborers in any industry have
the right, and, in fact, owe it to them
selves, to obtain the largest share of
its profits that the employer can be
induced TO concede them voluntarily,
and if they do not receive what they
think they earn, they have unques-
tiOnably the right to quit work. The
right to strike does not, however, i'm
ply the right to use force to accom-
plish their objects, When the striker
transgresses law by attacking his
neighbor or destroying his neighbours
property, at that point, like any other
law breaker, he loses the sympathy
and support of the public. The pres
ervation of order is the one duty of
which the citizen as well as the gov
ernment can under no circumstances
afford to divest himself.

sOt symptoms, but uhe Disease.

1t would seem to be truth appreciable by
all, and especially by professors Of the hoal-
ing ar, that to remove the disease, not to
alleviate its symptoms, should be the chief
aim of medication. Yet IN how many in
stances do We see this truth admitted in the
ory, ignored in practice. The reason that
Hostetter's Stomach Bitlers is successful in
so many cases, with which remedies previ-
ously tried we're inadequate TO cope. is at
tributable to the fact that It Is medicine
which reaches and removes the causes Of
the various malAdies 10 which II e adapted.

NEVER before in the history Of labor
in this country was it so united, and,
Consequently, so powerful. Its cohe-
sion and unity of ton are unex-
ampled in the annals of trade organi-
zations. Therefore at this, of all mo-
nents, says the New York SuR, we
say beware! Be moderate and be
temperate. The true interests OF the
employer, if he be wise, are identical
with your interests, and see to it now
that no misuse of victory lead you to
change places with the oppressor.

senator Vests Pan. Iectric Deposit

WASHINGTON, March lit is
learned to-day that in the synopsis of
Senator Vests deposition, taken pri-
vately last evening by members of the
House Telephone Investigating Com.
mittee and furnished to the Associated
Press by one of its members, that
Senator Vest was misquoted. He was
reported as having said: "Mr. Garland
represented to me that, in his opinion,
the Bell patent was illegally obtained,
and that the Pan-Electric stock
might be worth some money"
Whereas the stenographer's notes
show Senator Vest to have
said: 81 then conversed with Senator
Garland, who stated to me that he had
examined the matters very thoroughly
and thatg,he had no-doubt the Pam
Electric patent was perfectly valid
one" Senator Vest also said that Mr..
Casey Young told him "that the Bell
patent had been procured by fraud"
The error was caused by the member
Of the committee confusing the author
ship of the two statements.

Bayard and Lamar were absent from
the Cabinet meeting to-day. The ses-
sion was mainly devoted to the dis
cussion of names presented for ap-
pointment as Comptroller of the Cur
rency and as Civil Service Commits
sioner, but no conclusion was reached,
except that it was essential that both
offices should be filled as soon as pos
sible. 1t was represented that the al
fairs of the former Office rendered a
speedy appointment desirable.

Study of German Among Austrian
troops


VIENNA, March ll.-Count Bylandt-
Rheydt, Imperial Minister OF War, has
issued instructions to all the COM
manders of corps in the Austro-Hun-
garian army to order the enforcement
OF the study OF German among all the
troops. The count complains that
the use of local dialects among the
soldiers has greatly increased of late.
The Czechs, meanwhile, are steadfast
in adhering to their own language.
They demand that the words of com
mand in the Lansturm shall bA given
to the Czech troops in their own
tongue. The petition of the old
Catholics of Bohem to have a pro-
fessor of old Catholic theology ap-
pointed on the faculty of the Univer-
sity of Prague has been rejected. The
Tdgblda states that movement has
been organized in Russia to convert to
the Greek Church the Catholic czechs
in the Austro-Hungarian empire. The
chief missionary of this movement in
Austria, it is alleged, is an Austrian
named Dobregunski. He is said to
have already converted fifty families
in Vienna alone. I he TdgblGft declares
that $4,000 roubles have already been
subscribed in Russia and sent to help
the work Of proselyting Austria.

for the relief of the distress prevalent
among the poor of the city, was well
attended by the distinguished people

deem, who drove in state from the
Viceroy's residence at Dublin Castle.
They were loudly cheered along the
route and received with enthusiasm
by the assemblage at the Mansion-
House. The Lord Mayor presided
over the meeting. He received
letters from Archbishop Walsh,
Mr.. Sexton and others regretting their
inability to be present, and inclosing
checks amounting to G400. The Earl
of Aberdeen, in an address, expresses
his sympathy with the distressed peo-
pie Of Ireland. Archbishop Plunkett,
Bishop Donnelly, Michael Davitt and
others also spoke. A committee was
appointed to receive donations, and a
res luton cordially thanking the Lord

WHOLESALE POISONING.

LEBANON, Pa, March l1.-On Tues
day afternoon about so inmates Of the
alms-house were seized with vomit-
ing and severe pain. DR.. Weiss, the
attending physician, pronounced it a
case of wholesale poisoning. Measures
were promptly taken t, counteract the
poison. To-day most of the victims are
still suffering severely from nausea and
tw I've of them are still in a critical con-
dition. An investigation revealed the
fact that all who drank of the coffee
prepared for the noon meal were sick
and the coffee-pot was found lined
with a thick sediment Of Paris green.
The vessel holds barrel or more and
into this some person had thrown al
most 4 pounds of poison. The doctor
is of the opinion that had it not been
for the fact that that the poison was
too strong, causing vomiting, morethan
half of the inmates would now be dead.
