CIVIL SERVICE REFORMERS.

/ WASHINGTON, March 28.-Wm. Dudley
J Foulke, of Richmond Ind, president of
the Indiana civil service reform associa-
ton addressed the Hale committee of the
senate this morning on the condition of
civil service in his state, his testimony
being the result of the Investigations
made and affidavits taken by the associa-
ton. He described sweeping removals
made by Postmaster Jones, of Indiana
| polls, immediately upon his appointment
and avowaIs by that official that none
| but democrats would be appointed re-
gardless of civil service examinations.
he detailed the defects in the postal ser
vice which resulted. Three weeks elapsed
/ between mailing and delivery of drop
letters. Carriers were appointed who
could not read addresses on letters. Let
ter boxes were left unYisited until they
were filled TO overfowing. A mail car was
lsent from Indianapolis to LaF ayette with
DO messenger aboard, and all the mail was
brought back TO Indianapolis. The as
sistant postmaster previous to his ap
poiAtment by Jones had been connected
with a gambling house. Another ap
pointee in a responsible position who was
a prominent democratic politician had at
the time of his appointment told three
persons that he had bribed certain
members of the city council-paid
them money-for voting for certain
street railway enterprise. These facts
were embodied in affidavits and sent to
Postmaster General Villas, with re-
quest for Dowling's removal. Mr.. Villas
answered that he had inquired into the
matter, and altt ough Bowling had made
these statements he (Vilas) was satisfied
they were merely boasts and that Dow
ling did not bribe the members of
the council; that Bowling was
an eff cient officer and he Villas
had decided to retain him. The witness
described an investigation made by him
self, resulting II the discovery that out
of 136 cases of suspension-all or nearly
all presidential enthusiastically two
were ever informed of the charges or
reason for their removal. Witness called
upon the president and found he knew of
these removals. The president said If
was impossible 20 let parties know the
charges. They were doing the best they
could. The president expressed a nope
that the association would go slow as he
had great difficulty in bringing some of
his party up to his ideas of civil
service reform, and that Indiana
was in pretty bad state. The witness
stated that there had not to his knowledge
been any change in the condition OF af-
fairs since be laid these matters before
the president. He expressed the hope
that the committee would visit Indiana
and allow the association to know suffi
GENTLY in advance to be prepared with
with witnesses and facts.

body to live if it could help it. It watched
unhealthy rivals die and even fastened
their demise. The Postal and Union
lines was prosperous, healthy company
and could not be swallowed. If the
Postal could secure equal facilities
with the Western Union in the transpor
tation of poles and supplies, and IN the
right-of-way over the Pacific railroads, it
would be satisfactory to it, if the people
and the government were satisfied.
General SWayne argued in opposition
to IngersolI. Among other things ne said
if Ingerson wanted to build line on the
Pacific railroads he did not need the help
of congress to do it. There was
on the statute books authority for any in
dividuaI to compel the Pacific Railroad
companies by mandamus to do anything
which they were required to do under the
statute or common law.

KANSAS CITY, March 3O-The Times
reporters sent by special train to the
scene of the Rich Hill mine disaster, re-
turned tonight and from their information
the situation may be surmised as follows:
The dead list has reached twenty AN
Line of the injured are expected to die,
making the probable loss OF life by the
ex plosion thirty. Some claim that
natural gas was the cause
of the explosion, while others
contend that the accumulation of foul
gases without proper ventilation was the
real cause. The state mine inspector ex-
amined the mine March 9Th, and pro-
nounced it safe. The Richfeld Herald
this evening strongly denounced him and
demands his immediate suspension from

EMPEROR FREDERICK
He Sleeps Well and Takes Long Drive.
Disease Will Soon Prove Fatal

He Sleeps Well and Takes Long Drive. ] is
Disease Will Soon Prove Fatal.
BERLIN, March 31-The EN- peror slept
eight hours last night almost without
break. His official work to-day was IN
usually prolonged. In the afternoon he
took drive lasting an hour and was re-
ceived with enthusiasm and ringing hur-
rahs along the route. The weather was
extremely mild. The carriage was driven
slowly and the emperor was fully
seen. He looked well, the only
trace of his illness being his
waxy complexion. Despite the semblance
of health and increased power, German
expert opinion that the disease will have
an early and fatal termination is still un-
altered. The progressist hopes for
speedy introduction of liberal reforms
under Emperor Frederick, though chilled
by the Bismarckian tone of his proclama-
tions, have been revived by the prospects
CT the prolongation of mis- life
Conservative papers say the progressiss
programme overlooks the permanent
physical disability of the emperor, and
the fact that at the last council of minis
ters and other high officers of state, after
Bismarck had stated formally his home
and foreign policy, the emperor intimat
ed his entire acquiescence and complete
confidence in the great minister.

undoubted national character or national
value, may become auxiliary to this coun-
Gil upon subscribing to the specified

any of the past.
The Butte City, Montana, board of
trade has made formal protest to the
Union Pacific regarding the fact that
Helena is getting freight delivered at
much lower rates by the Northern Pacific
than is made to Butte. The Helena rates
have been forced down by the competi-
ton between the Northern Pacific and
the Manitoba, while the Union Pacific
has been able to hold up the rates to
Butte. It is question whether the Union
Pacific can be induced to meet the
Helena rates.

70 HEAD OFF THE SHARKS.

Mr.. Nelson Again Before the Senate Commit
tee in Favor of His Bill to Ratify the Chip
pewa Agreements.
WASHINGTON, March O.-Congressman
Nelson, of Minnesota, was again before
the senate committee on Indian affairs
this n orning in opposition to the com
mission bill to ratify the Chippewa agree
ments and in favor of the house bill in
troduced by himself for the same pur-
poss. He pointed out again what he
claimed to be tina vital objections to
the commission bill. 1t proposed to
give the Red Lake Indians the proceeds
of a domain which would make them
all nabobs, millionaires worse than the
Osages and some others in the Indian
territory, while the other Minnesota In
dams would be left as paupers IN COM
parison. These were all, as matter of
fact he claimed, members of the same
tribe and were equally entitled to di-
vision of the surplus. Again 1t was pro.
posed that the lands should I'll be sold
at public sale. This would bring
them into the hands of speculators, and
actual settlers would have to pay exor-
bitant prices for their farms. His bill,
he said provided against both these mat
tiers. He explained the features of his
bill, section by section, AMI discussed the
details with the members Of the commit
tee. He defended himself against the
charge made In the letter to the Indian
office ana published by the commission
err of Indian affairs, that he was acting
In the interest of the spine ring
declaring that he had no personal interest
in the matter. He said everybody that
lived in Minnesota and knew anything
about the matter, knew this to be fact,
and after the charge had been made he
had been almost unanimously elected to
congress. He reflected with some severi-
ty upon the Indian Office for publishing
such statement. The members of the
northwest commission which secured the
agreements with the Indians are to be
heard later.

Senator Stanford Fires Final Shot at the

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator Stan
ford to-day submitted long address TO
the senate special committee In charge of
the Pacific railway commissioners re-
ports. In conclusion, Senator Stanford
said he desired the committee in franz
ing new legislation applicable to the
company to bear in mind first,
that the company had perform
ed all it's obligations; second,
that it had saved enormous sums of
money for the government; third,
that it never made cent at the expense
of the government or the people; fourth,
that the cost of the road was doubled by
the tremendous expedition of its con-
struction from which the government re-
ceived great benefit; fifth, that the debt
owed to the government will not be due
for ten years, and sixth, the relation OF
the Uni.sd States to the Central Pacific is
that of the contract which the govern
ment has no justification to violate.

men as he had done, of course he would
