Probable Wholesale Removal Of Republican

Probable Wholesale Removal Of Republican
Of1ce-Holders.
Washington Special.
1t is quite generally believed that upon the re-
turn of the President and his CabineJ officers a
wholesale discharge of Republicans-not under
civilservice law-will be made. In the Interior
Department there are thirty-seven Republican
chiefs Of divisions who will be discharged by
Nov. and their places filled by Democrats In
tho Postoffce Department there are eleven Re-
publican chiefs who will also be- removed In
the State, Navy and Army Departments there
have been few removals, but all will have to go
There are less Republican chiefs in thes Treasury
Department than in any other single branch OF
the government. Commissioner Black has said
that by Dec. there will not be Republican in
that Office who is not under civil-service juris-
diction. Mr.. Bayard, who had been conserva-
tive about making changes in his department.
has assumed proud Democratic spirit, and will
make very radical change. So that in a short
time none but Democrats will be on deck.

Slethodists and Prohibition.

Special 20 the Indianapolis Journal.
ADRIAN. Mich, Sept. 1.-The Detroit Meth
odst Episcopal Conference. in session here. has
taken bold stand in favor OF the Prohibition
party. The Prohibition candidate for Governor
was introduced and made a political speech,
which displeased some persons but pleased more.
Then the temperance committee reported, stat
ing that the time was past when the drunkard
was an object of pity. He should be punished,
and the rumseller should be placed in prison.
License laws should be opposed. 1t was not
proposed that pastors should control the politics
of their congregations, but the report urges to
recommend their people strongly not to vote
with political parties which lseislate in favor OF
the liquor traffic. Church members were forbid
den to rent buildings for saloon purposes, or to
60 on liquor bonds. The report was adopted.

and writing a book which will give the INSIDE
history of the star-route episode and of the cleo
toral count in the Florida election of 1876"
In answer to questions about his forthcoming
book, the General said to a Critic reporter, to-
day: II propose to place several alleged states
men and others in the public pillory, in order

THE MARYINE CAVE.IN.
no Change in the Situation, and Nothing
Known as to the Fate of the Missing Men,

SCRANTON, Pa, Sept. 14-The situation. at
lhe Marvine shaft, where the cavern occurred,
remains practically unchanged. This morning
the air in the return air course showed gas to
within two feet of the floor Later in the day,
the gas was four feet from the floor, showing
that it was diminishing in volume and that the
speed at which the fans had been run was
getting the better of the vast amount
of gas set free by the fail, and
which had accumulated during the night.
This statement applies to the airways. and not
to the slope No men could possibly live in such
an atmosphere. Nor does this indicate that the
gas is being drawn from those portions OF tie
mine where the ventilating current does not
blow. In such places the gas would simply
stand still. To-day Mr.. Abnickol ventured down
the slope, with safety lamp He penetrated to
within about thirty FIVE feet of where Shafer's
body is supposed to be. Here his progress was
stayed by the debris. There were crevices in the
rock through which the air circulated, and there
was little gas in the slopes Mr.. Abnickol called
aloud several times. waiting each time for re-
sponse, but none came. The ''crop" is still in
progress, but it is apparently the tail end. The
splintering coal is still flying. and occasionally
the noise of rending rock is beard. The settling
will soon cease, however, and work
will then be commenced in the slope.
Miners cannot be induced to work
there until the working" has ceased. An
effort will be made tomorrow to pierce through
the pillar into Youngs chamber by means of
drill and thus determine the question of the
presence there OF gas or air. The distance
through the pillar is Eot great and the noise of
the blasting could be easily heard by those i'm
prisoned within, If they were in a condition to
hear. and if they would pound on the coal be-
yond, the miners in turn could hear them. AT
ter each blast the miners wait with bated breath
Cor some response, but none has thus far come.
