AT YORK AND ABERC0RN
THE SITE FOR THE GOVERNMENT
BUILDING SELECTED.

1t Cost Only $4,000, and its Title So
Perfect that No Time Need Be Lost
in PerfectiSg the Deed-Plans for
the Structure.
WASHINGTON, March 16.-The Secretary
of the Treasury this afternoon selected the
lot at the corner Of York and Abercorn
streets as the site for the Savannah post
office and court house, accepting it at the
price proposed, $4,000 The Supervising
Architect will at once write Capt. Purse
releasing the government claim on the bar
racks property, and Col. Estill formally
accepting his lot, and requesting him to
submit his abstract of title to District At
torney Guerry
1t is understood that the title is perfect,
so that the District Attorney will not be
long in examining and reporting upon it,
When the Attorney General approves the
District Attorneys report the purchase
money will he paid at once out of the $40,
800 now in the Treasury to the credit of the
Savannah building.
TO RUSH THE PLANS.
As there is no prospect of delay over the
title the Supervising Architect will at once
sentative Norwood, Judge Speer. Post
master Lamar and others viii be consulted.
Representative Norwood's idea, which will
probab y receive favorable consideration, is
to erect a four-story brick building about
$50 feet by rs feet. He prefers a classic
style of architecture, simple and chaste.
He wants substantial and comfortable
building. The post office will occupy the
first floor and tho courts the second, the
clerks, marshal's offices and perhaps the in
ternal revenue office being in the upper
stories Representative Norwood prefers
two court rooms.
NOW FOR THE MONEY.
He will at once proceed to get the $780,
600 appropriation to complete the building
into the sundry civil bill.
The site was selected at a conference in
the office of the Secretary of the Treasury
between the latter, the Supervising
Arctetect, and Representative Norwood
this afternoon. Representative Norwood
presented Capt Purses letter asking that
the barracks property be released, and also
the propositions TO sell the court house
lot, Hunter property, the York and Aber-
corn corner, Col. Screvens property, and
DIR. Elliotrs property, court house lot was
not considered because of its narrowness
aid the great inevitable delay If an attempt
should be made to get greater width
The attempt to get authority from
the Legislature and an appropriation from
Congress would carry the project over two
years. The choice lay between the Hunter
property and the York and Abercorn
street corner. The latter was preferred
because it was So, 900 cheaper, and because
the title could be so quickly and satisfacto-
rily proved.

MARSHAL AND MooNsHINER.
The Attorney General Explains the
[ Cost of Arrests.

The Attorney General Explains the
[ Cost of Arrests.
WASHINGTON, March 16.-The Attorney
General to-day sent in reply to the House
resolution of inquiry relative to the ex-
pense of arresting persons for violations of
the internal revenue laws. He says un-
usual expenses necessary in making arrests
of illicit distllers have been authorized in
the Northern districts of Ala
bama and Georgia, and North
and South Carolina and the Western dis
trict of Virginia. The authority granted
to marshalS was TO employ efficient depu-
ties TO accompany revenue agents in making
arrests. The reason for giving this author
ity was that deputies were found to be-
necessary to guide the officers to
the hills and hiding places
where the illicit distillers could be
found, and swere often found, and whose
arrest would otherwise have beeI impracti-
cable. Ordinary compensation would be
insufficient TO secure these services and the
limit fixed for such expenses range from
500 in the Eastern district TO 81 400 in the
Western district of North Carolina.
The department has no knowl-
edge that its instructions
have been Misunderstood or violated by
marshas-and in no case has the maximum
compensation fixed by the department been
exceeded, or has any part of the judicial
appropriation been expended for the pay Of
revenue agents except as deputy marshals.

COMMERCE WITH CANADA.

Joint Resolution.

Tho House committee Reports the
Joint Resolution.
WASHINGTON, March 16.-The House
Foreign Affairs Committee to-day reported
the joint resolution to promote commercial,
union with Canada. 1t was put on the cal
endar. The report says: "The resolution
does not contemplate any action on our part
at present, but whenever the Dominion of
Canada shall have declared a desire for
commercial union with common tar II, like
internal revenue taxes, like duties on articles
imported into either country from abroad
and no duties on trade between the United
States and Canada, then the President is
authorized to appoint three commissioners
TO meet those who may be designated TO
represent Canada, in order to prepare a
plan for commercial union by assimilating
the tariffs and internal revenue taxes of the
two countries, now not very widely differ
ent, and an equitable method of dividing
receipts, which they shall report
TO the President, who shall
lay it before Congress The whole subject
of our relations with Canada is kept
under the control of Congress. 1t
is not deemed necessary to here
discuss the merits of commercial union
or details of the arrangement that will
be necessary. Your committee believe
that the power herein conferred upon the
President can do no harm, and that it will
be wisely used, and will lead to benefcent
results, promoting the indepe dence, pros
perity and peace of the two great peoples. ="

WARNING GIVEN.
The Engine Men Deny that the Strike
Was a Surprise.


TOPEKA, KAN, March l6.-The follow
ing statement of the situation was au-
thorized to be published: "The question of
the right to stop was fully considered, and
for the present it was unanimously agreed
that, as far as we are concerned, the Santa
Fe management having agreed that they
would not handle any "Qn freight, and the
engineers and firemen knowing full well
that the Santa Fe has violated this agree
ment every day for the past week,
there is nothing left for us to do. but to
quit hauling any cars until this trouble is
settled. This is a question of life and death
with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers and Fremen, and they hsd been fully
advised that the management of the different
connecting lines with the GO are working in
an underhand manner to defeat them, and
they think in justice to themselves now, and
the travelling public hereafter, it is better
that this matter be brought TO a settlement
at once, and they have used this, their last
resort, to bring about an equitable settle
ment. They also desire to state to the peo-
pie of Topeka that the management of the
Santa Fe road had been fully warned and
knew what was going to happen more than
week ago, instead of thirty minutes, as
was stated in last evenings papers"

explanation Of this action. don't under
stand it. The men have not notified me
and am completely in the dark
''Are you not ordinarily informed Of such
THINGS"
"Always, yes sir; and this is what makes
the matter still more uniutellgible. / don't
understand it at all, 4" repeated the chief.
Don't you consider this action as
stranger
1T is nothing less than open rebellion for
1t locks much as if either the men were tired
of the grand officers advice, or willfully
disregarding their duties to the laws and
constitution"
Have the men ever acted independently
of you or Mr.. Sargeptp
''Never, and never have they acted in the
past as they are acting in the present

dents was that the men have gone out

trains which are now on the road, which
will not be stopped until they reach the end
of the line. There are about 200 engineers

REEDS RUEFUL RUMINATIoN.

Him Repeatedly.

Democratic Revenue RetormerS hout
Him Repeatedly.
WASHINGTON, March l6.-The round
and chubby face of Mr.. Reed, Of Maine.
wore a severe frown as he came out of the
room of the Committe on Ways and Means
upon its adjournment at noon to-day. He
had been twice worsted i'll the commit ee,
and the lack of harmony among the Re
publicans had been once more emphasized
The committee had been trying to dispose
of the internal revenue features of the
Mills bill. Before IL began its work Mr..
Reed had objected to the consideration of
such important matters in such short order.
IN HIS OWN TRAP.
He said it took as long to analyze bill as
to construct it, ana that it could not be prop
erly done in few morning sessions of the
committee
"Very we'll" said Mr.. Mills quickly,
I'VE ask the House to let us sit in the after
noon and evening too
This was just what Mr.. Reed did not
want. He at once protested that he did not
want to add to his work. He had enough
to do. He got tired of the committee in
the morning He had no desire to come
back in the afternoon.
REED IGNORED
The committee, ignorning Mr.. Reeds
prot st, instructed Chairman Mills to ask
the House for permission to sit during the
recess Then the committee went on with
the bill.
After their defeat yesterday Messrs.
Kelley and Reed did not hope TO engraft
any more of Mr.. Randalls internal reve-
nue. reductions upon the bill They went
through the motions however, Of objections
to the provisions ST the bill, and preferring
the Randall provisions, but they got no aid
nor comfort from the Western Republicans
on the committee. Their relations were
well shown by little incident. Mr..
Browne of Indiana who is the leader of the
Western Republicans proposed some verbal
amendments to the bill,
REED AGAIN SLIPS UP.
All the Republicans voted for it, Mr..
Reed, with seeming pride, remarked, "You
see, we're all voting together again"
Under the leadership of Mr.. Browne, v
quietly suggested Mr.. Breckenridge, Of
Kentucky.
"Oh," said Mr. Reed, considerably net
tied, Il only voted with Mr. Browne TO
show that we are all together again. ] do
not know what bis proposition was"
"Well, y said Mr.. Browne with smile,
81 can always depend ON you to vote right
when you don't know what you are voting
for"
lnen Ine committee ADJOURNED tlu To-
morrow, having finished the interal revenue
clauses except the last two giving Judge
enlarged discretion. These relate to the
destruction Of private distllery apparatus
and TO the treatment of prisoners whose
health is jeopardized by confinement. Oyer
these sections there was some difference of
| opinion, and it was evident that the Repub-
licans will vote against them when the com
mittee meets again. The bill will be re-
| ported next week.
Mr.. Randall's bill will not be considered
In the House to-day Mr.. Mills, of Texas,
| asked unanimous consent that the Ways
and Means Committee be permitted to sit
during the sessions of the House, but Mr..
Burrows, of Michigan, objected.
