CHICAGO, Oct 4-Willam J. Gallagher was
arrested this morning for alleged completely in
a city rebate warrant fraud. 1t was rumored
that thousands of dollars of rebate warrants had
been secured by the consprators, and that some

conspirators have pocketed any considerable
amount of money. II think" he said to re-
porter, shat there has been no serious fraud
committed OF course, it is within the bounds
of possibility that the thing may have occurred
in few instances, but think this was only the

The Hennepin Canal Project.

CHICAGO, Oct 4.-The United States govern
ment board of engineers on the Illinois 81
Michigan, and the Hennepin canals, composed
of General G. B. Comstoek, of Village Point N.
Y; General o. NJ Poe. of Detroit. and Major j.
O. Post, of Cincinnati, was in session in this
city to-day to report on the canals. Beside the
board, several other gentlemen we're present
General Comstock presided at the meeting and
called for some remarks on the subject OF the
canals. Governor Oglesby said he had not
studied the matter, and was not prepared to give
any definite information. With the great Lake
Michigan lying useless and the Mississippi river
on the other side of the State, it seemed as if nat
ure intended the canals for use He asked if
the government could, just for the sum Of
$40 1000 600 $4,000 900. afford to let the great
natural artery channel remain idle He re-
ferred to the vast increase of population and the
marvellous increase of coal. corn, lumber, grain
and fonr shipments during the past thirty two
years, and wanted to know what the increase
would be in the next thirty-two years The OBJ
ject of the canals was to reduce to the lowest
possible standard the rate of transportation.
The United States cannot afford to let the project
go by unnoticed. The government should not
wait day to avail itself Of this waterway.
The Governors remarks were followed by a
running debate by the gentlemen present all of
whom favored the project The meeting then
adjourned without any action being taken The
board will submit its report to the government
some time in November

The s.ore-order system Illegal:

PITTsBURG, Oct AIN the State Supreme
Court. which met here to-day, Justice Gordon
decided that the store order system, under the
act of June 90 1881. was unconstitutional and
void, inasmuch as by it persons are prevented
from making their own contracts" In his opin-
ion Judge Gordon says: "The act is an infringe
ment alike of the rights of employer and en-
pioye, and it is an insulting attempt to put the
laborer under legislative tutelage, which is not
only degrading to his manhood but subversive
of his rights citizen of the United States. !"
The decision was rendered in the of Cad
challs e. CO. vs. Frank Weigman. of Northum-
berland county The Judgment of the lower
court was reversed and new trial ordered.
The decision caused great deal of comment in
labor circles to- day, Thomas A. Armstrong of
the Labor Tribune, advises every labor organi-
cation in the State to make determined fight
affainst the store-order system
John Costello, president of the Pittsburg Mi
ners Association. said: THE decision will be
startling news to the Miners Association. They
must necessarily begin a warfare against the
perniclous system"

Colonel De Bevoise's Alleged Shortage.

New YORK, Oct. 4-On Friday last Colonel
w. II. De Bevoise, late chief stamp clerk in the
Brooklyn postoffice. died suddenly. 1t was
rumored yesterday that there was a defalcarion
in his department in the Office. traceable to the
time when he was chief clerk. and that he had
committed suicide. The coroner held an inc lest
over the remains, and the verdict was that he
had died of cerebral apoplexy, presuma-
bly, superinduced or fastened by anxiety. All of
the officials in position to know about the
matter are very reticent. This much however
has been learned: Three packages of stamps
containing $4,000 stamps each, which were
turned over to the new postmaster as two-cent
stamps, have been discovered to be ones instead,
making shortage of 81, 500; that there had been
erasnres and changes in the books; that Colonel
De Bevoise was called on by the postofice in
spectors to explain the matter, and that he said
that there had been two deficiencies in the ac-
counts of the ofice-one for s., 600 and one for
81. 558-which had been rectiied, and the money
had been put I'D. There were various other ru-
mors, but none OF them could be- traced to any
reliable source.
