Not Charity, but COURTESY.

The tart letter OF Mr.. Gilbert, the com
poser, to the Messrs. Harper, of New
York, in which he declined to receive n
check for $50 rendered him by that firm
us an honorarium in recognition of the
fact that thsy had republished some of
his comic operas, was doubtless the re-
suit OF long meditation and bitterness ON
his part because there was no interna-
tional copyright. Yet Gilbert and Sulli-
van have not suffered here in America
Their compositions have been produced
IN all parts OF the country, and thew have
received rich royalties upon them. The
publication OF their operas, in view of
their general familiarity, could not be re-
garded as o very profitable enterprise
and IN sending him present OF ten
pounds, merely as II compliment. the
lHiarpers probably gave away as much as
they made by the operation.
Until some international agreement ON
the copyright question can be reached. bv
which authors in England can control the
sale OF their works in America, and vice
versa, they need not regard as charity n
Ten pound note given when there is no
obligation to give anything. Gilbert
could give no American publisher anv
property in his works, and the money
That was sent him was complimentary
rather than compensatory. II London
publishers who print American works
would adopt this sociable plan of doing
business, authors ON this side would
frame heircheeks as curiosites.

Il. A. IRELAND,
u. S. Marshal.

There has been rumor current for
some weeks that all of the prominent
Mormon authorities who are liable to the
law on polygamy and unlawful cohabita-
ton charges, were soon to emigrate to
distant lands, especially in the event of
the passage OF the new Edmunds bill,
and it may be that Marshal Ireland has
heard and believed this report, and is
acting accordingly.

A New Phase Of the Prohibition Ques
ton i'm Kansas.

ton I'm Kansas.
TOPEKA, KAN, Jan. 22.-Judge Brewer filed
a lengthy opinion yesterday in the case brought
by John Walruff for the removal Of certain pro-
ceedings commenced against him i'm Douglas
county in the United States circuit court. The
opinion is considered, i'm a measure, favorable
to the brewers as in effect 1t says the state
should pay tor property which ii has rendered
useless. The judge says: Between 1870 and
1874 the defendants constructed a brewery in
Lawrence, Kan. The building, machinery and
fixtures were designed and adapted for the
purpose they are worth S50,0O0; for any other
purpose, not to exceed $4,000. At the time of
the erection OF the building and up TO 1850,
the making of beer was legal and as
free from tax, license or other restriction
as the milling of flour in that year. A
constitutional amendment was adopted,
prohibiting the manufacture of beer
except tor medicinal, scientific and mechanical
purposes. In 1881 and Ii $50 laws were enacted
to carry this prohibition into effect. Under
facture tor the excepted purposes to the defend
ants. This permit was refused and an injunc-
ton issued restraining defendants absolutely
from the manufacture OF beer. Thus the defend
ants are prohibited from using their property
for the purposes for which il is alone useful and
ton, to surrender S45,O 900 of value, which they
had acquired under constitutional guarantee
protection to property. Is state potent,
through the forms of law, to take from citizen
by direct action the value OF bis property with
out compensation?
The Judge then refers to various decisions of
the higher courts touching arbitrary legislation,
the condemnation and confiscation of prop
erty, and establishing the fact that the case i'm
point presents a federal question giving the
right OF removal. The amount in controversy
being unquestionably in excess of $500, the
case, he says, is a removable one.

Mr.. Samuel Strong Removed.

A RECORD NEARLY THIRD OF CENTURY
OLD BROUGHT UP AGAINST HIM.
Mr.. Samuel Strong. the well-known con-
tractor, who was appointed on the 14th instant
as an inspector OF material under the super
vising architect of the Treasury, was to-day
removed from that office. Mr.. Strong left the
city on the 18th, to go south to attend to bust
ness as an inspector. Notice of his dismissal
has been sent after him. The removal is due ia
an ., old report of Q Senate investigating com
mittee, made during a special session in 1853.
which has been brought up against him. Mr.
Strong was then employed as superintendent OF
construction at the Capitol building. The
charge made was that workmen on the building
were required, with Samuel Strongs knowledge.
to pay portions OF their wages TO Robert Strong
brother Of Samuel, who was employed as
SamuePs deputy, and that materials were taken
from the Capitol for private use. The charges
OF workmen. Mr.. Strong denied them, but the
Senate committee considered itself Justified in
reporting against him, and Mr.. Strong resigned
his office. Assistant secretary Fairchild told =
known at the Treasury department when Mr.
Strong was appointed. ''There was no one
here old enough" he said, smilingly, ato know
anything about that"

The TWELFTH BUILDING AssoCIATIoN-At
the meeting OF the Twelfth Building Associa-
ton last evening Mr.. Leech, from the finance
committee, made report upon the condition Of
the association with special reference to the
question as to how far the assets would cancel
the stock yet on the roll. The assets were found
TO be $3,2S3.SS; but the committee found a
record of the settlement of sixteen shares al
legged to have been held by Mrs. Mary E. Her
shey and S. e. Smith, but the names OF neither
appears on the treasurer's books, and there Is no
record that either paid dollar into the treas
ury. Mr.. Smith. however, had explained to
the committee that he was q member of the
Thirteenth Building Association, and that
these transactions referred to the affairs of that
association. If this amount is refunded to the
association their assets will be sufficient to pay
the remaining stockholders in full, with a fair
interest on the stock. This report was accepted
and referred TO the secretary for explanation,
and Messrs. Mcintyre and Mclaughlin were
appointed committee to walt on President
Clabaugh and ask for an explanation OF the
Hershey transaction.

British Methods I'm Burmah.
HOW A wRETCHED NATIVE WAS TERRORIZED
INTO CONFESSION.

LONDON, Jan. 22.-The Times Mandalay cor
respondent says: A Burman, who was suspected
of being connected with a conspiracy was
placed among the cOrpses OF five Dacoits, who
had just been executed. The provost marshal
then threatened the man with instant death by
shooting il he did not confess all he knew OF the
supposed conspiracy, In which certain Burmese
ministers were alleged TO be implicated. A
squad OF soldiers were drawn up In line and pre-
sented their rifles ut the man. This frig htened
aim into making confession, in which he inn
plicated several Of the Burmese ministers. His
testimony was written in a book borrowed from
q newspaper correspondent, and was taken to
Mr.. Bernard, the British chief commissions,
which 1t had been given. Indignantly declined
to receive II. Colonel Sladen, the British police
chief military officers.
Advices from Mandalay say that Lord DUFF.
ferin has ordered the publication Of q circular
warning Europeans not TO expose themselves,
either singly or In small parties.
A blue book on the Burmese question shows
that Englands action in Burmah was largely
due to French intrigues.

Serious WashOuts On the Southern Pac
ific Railroad.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. photographic COM
munication, which was entirely suspended
Wednesday in consequence of the storm, was
partially resumed at about 1890 yesterday
morning. The situation continued to improve
and last night there was an excellent prospect
OF a speedy resumption Of communication be-
tween all points and San Francisco. A large
force of men were busy repairing the breaks on
the Southern Pacific railroad, which was
ported to be in good working order as far south
as Lancaster. Between there and Newhall a dis
lance of 40 miles, nothing could be learned of
its condition, as the wires were down. The
most serious washouts are believed to have oc-
Cured there. From Newhall to Yuma the road
is reported to be in working order. 1t is
thought that all repairs will be completed in
about five days. Dispatches from the interior
of the state received yesterday report that the
storm was not felt as severely there as it was
here, although at many point trees, fences etc.,
were Frustrated and in q few instances houses
were unrOOfed.
