grave mistake was made i'll not taking steps

,ressiOn of the floors occurred; and he
considered it the duty of supervising

settlement showed the one three-quarter
inch seen when the fifth story wall was
removed. he did not think that settlement
portended danger. The witness said he
should have arrested the builder, had he
been Inspector Pardee, the moment he be-

scribed the system of foundation
bracing in the cellar, and had found
the footings and bearings less secure

the removal of the foundation wall threw

George w. Libby, builder. laid the en-
tire fault with the removal of the founda-
ton wall, and the consequent settling of
the joiSts of the first floor. He objected to
the use of the battering ram, but was not
prepared to say it. under the circumstan-
ces was the cause of the accident. He did
not regard the foundation supports as suf-
fcent, and believed where the weight came
upon them they sunk two inches. This,

would make total of six inches or suffi-
cient to throw the building down.

"Thom,s Our Sentiments -

The Republican ofFicehclders who
constitute the Grand Lodge of the
Brotherhood of Railway Postal Clerks
continue TO be in a state of extreme
agitation and irritation, and they are
liable to 60 on a strike at any moment.
At meeting of their Executive Com
mittee last week it was decided TO
send q telegram TO Postm aster Gen
eral Villas asking him if he would re.
ceive n committee authori zed to pre-.
sent the grievance of the Bro therhood.
The telegram was sent, but an answer
wasn't and so a committee will make
an effort to get an interview with
Mr.. Villas this week, and personally
to demonstrate and supplicate. If he
refuses to receive the committee, the
members of the brotherhood are 90.
ing to strike. They seem to think
that the Government can't get along
without them.
The whole proceedings of these
people have been impudent and in.
subordinate, and they have not learn
ed discretion from the fate ofsome of
their associates who were promptly
discharged for the same offense, 1t
is high time for the Republican postal
railway clerks to learn that the rail-
way mail service can be carried on
without then, and that the Postmaster
General is not to be bulldozed into
keeping Republicans in office. These
insolent fellows should not be allow
ed to resign, as they threaten to do
if the Postmaster. G eneral does not
comply with their demands. They
should be kicked out before they get
a chance to resign. The idea that
Republican officeholders have pre-
scriptive right to office needs to be
knocked in the head. They are ten
ants by suferance only, and the soon.
er they are made to leave the better.
They are keeping better men out
