After the war, however, Brant got awfully
good and pious. He used all his influence to
maintain peace, became a red hot ~teetotaIer

ment into the Mohawk tongue. The county
of Brant, in Ontario province, and the -four

derson, conservative member and An Irish
landlord, and Mr.. Matthew Harris, Parnellite
member for East Galway. Major Saunderson
quoted an extract from a speech made in Octo-
Der, 1880, by Harris, in which the latter said
that ii the farmers shot the landlords like
partridges he would not blame them. Mr.. Har-
riS claimed that he was mlsQuoted, as Major
permitted to make an explanation, Mr.. Harris
commenced discursive statement. to the effect
that in 1S44 he went into the Riband lodges in

put down agrarian crime. Major Saunderson
then twitted Mr. Harris with being a member

speaker made him withdraw the words. Major
SaunderSOD, reSuming his speech, said that all

superintendent OF the Coahuila mines syndi-
cate, makes complaint to Consul Lynn of the
constant and persistent annoyances inflicted
upon the mining company by Mexican officers
at CuatrO Cienegas and san Pablo, imposing
unjust fines for floating the Americ.n flag on
American property without first obtaining per-
mission from the authorities San Pablo, for
which offence the company was fined $40, and
stopping mining operations on several occa-
sions for trivial causes. Mr.. Allen states that
since the Cutting and Aresures affairs the an
noyance has been more constant and the ill
treatment of Americans in his locality more
persistent Mr.. Allen represents Philadelphia
company that has spent large amounts Oh
money at CuatrO Cienegas and san Pablo.
His statements are corroDorated by five other

Commissioner Of Public Works of New
York.
He WILL PROBABLY SEVER HIS CONNECTION
WITH THE ARMY TO ACCEPT THE PLACE TEN.
DERED HIM.


Gen Newton. chief OF engineers, arrived in
washington last evening from New York, and
was at his office in the Winder building this
morning, busily preparing to sever his connec-
Ilon Win the government service to enter upon
Ihe outles o1 commissioner of public works of
New York. He stated to q STAR reporter to-
day that he had not definitely decided to ac-
cept the position rendered him, and therefore
mad not yet made application to be retired
under the forty years service law. "There is
every probability that 1 shall accept the posi-
t1on, although there is a bare possibility that
circumstances might dissuade me. If accept,
as think shall, 1 will go tomorrow"
HIS FITNESS FOR THE POSITION OFFERED HIM.
General Newton would retire for age on the
24th OF next August, so that by retiring after
forty years service he would shorten his term
as chief of engineers but one year. 1t is hardly
likely that next August he would have the
good fortune to be selected for a position so
acce table to him, and no ore entertains any
doubt about his becoming commissioner of
pubic works in New York. He is familiar with
the duties of the office, having been stationed
In New York for several years, where he gained
aworld.wide reputation for the engineering feat
OF blowing up He'll Gate. 1t is the general belief
that the city of New York is to be Congratulated
upon securing the services of such an able and
experienced engineer Gen. Newton for its
commissioner OF public works.
HIS SUCCESSOR AS CHIEF ENGINEER,
There seems to be no doubt but that COL Jas.
c. Duane, at present president of the board OF
engineer officers on Notifications, stationed in
New York, will be selected to succeed Gen.
Newton as chief of engineers Although he
stands third on the list of engineer officers in
point of rank, his chances are decidedly the
best: Col. Charles 5. Stewart. who stands first
on the list, is in very bad health, and will in all
probability be placed upon the retired list very
shortly. Col. Charles f.. Blunt, who is next IN
rank, will be retired next February, and that
fact precludes his selection to be chief OF
engineers: Col: Duane will have two years to
serve before his retirement, ana besides his
would add to the likelihood Of his being ap-
pointed.
Gen. Newton's salary in his new position will
be 81. 900 year. The general, though a demo-
crat. has never taken part in politics, and is in
no way identified with any OF the local factions
in New York
