ATCHIS0N'S FIX.
The Joints Closed in Order to Avoid an
Assistant Attorney General

ATcHIsoN, Kan, Nov. 30.-Every since
the appointment Of metropolitan COM
mission for Atchison, the commissioners
and municipal government have not been
ON good terms officially. The city authori-
ties think all surplus police collections
ought to be turned over to the city monthly
to help defray the city's expenses. during
the eight months the commissioners have
been in Office they have made but one pay
ment to the city, s., 800, and have now on
hand about 5000, which they say they
will retain to defray the expenses OF their
1epartment. should the receipts not equal
the expenses.
The Joints have been running open In
Atchison ever since the commissioners
took charge of the police last April, the
police collecting from $50 to 500 per month
from every jointist. This has been an
open secret in the community all the time
but the local papers have not recently
mentioned it. In an interview with re-
porter on an Omaha paper Mayor Wag-
goner gave the secret away, and, taking
alarm, last night the commissioners or
aered the police to close all places where
where liquor has been sold contrary to
law. Accordingly the joints were closed
by the police and this morning thirsty
citizens must walk across the
bridge for the purpose of irriGating
One of the commissioners is quoted as say
ing that the Waggoner interview was not
.he cause of the order, but that it had
come TO know edge of the commissioners
hat local prohibitionists were preparing
10 secure the appointment of an assistant
attorney general, and to avoid such step
the order to close the joints was issued:
If the order remains in force the city Will
have to make an extra appropriation OF
81, 900 every month to defray the expenses
of the police department.

Ve~ Polite,

A shabbily dressed man Of humble mien
softly opened the door of a small restaurant
near the court house a few days ago, and
those eating at the tables listened to the CON

''No, sir; not today"
''I'll do it cheap"

his voice, exclaimed:

Certainly" was the reply and the polite
stranger withdrew.-Philadelph Inquirer.

Of the commission to prevent the spread of
the Texas fever be released from quaran-
tine today, as the season is passed when
the Texas fever is likely to prove disastrous
to Kansas cattle. Only three herds are
now in quarantine, one in Franklin coun-
ty, one in Cherokee county and one at
Klowa, all of which are Texas or
Indian territory cattle. The commission
received a report from the inspector at
Kansas City to the effect that about 10000
head of stockers and feeders have been
shipped out OF Kansas City markets dur
ing the past year TO Kansas cattlemen for
the purpose of fattening. The cattle come
principally from Colorado, New Mexico
and the Panhandle One of the members
of the commission said TO reporter: In
addition to the 10000 head shipped out of
Kansas City, we estimate that 10000 head
were shipped direct to Kansas cattlemen
and did not go through Kansas City. This
would make 40, 600 head which will be fed

THE SCHEME FAILS.
Bismarck's Austrian Compact Not Regarded
PORTUGAL Rips for Republicanism.

(CopyriChted 1889 by the New York Associated Pressl
BERLIN, Nov. 30.-The foreign Office here
has ample reasons to accuse the Austrians
of having broken faith regarding the re-
cent Kalnocky- Bismarck compact. Within
the present week the leading points of
the entente have been set aside. Emperor
Francis Joseph has aunulled the decision
giving autonomy to Trentino, and Count
KsInocky has authorized the bourse to
give quotations of the Bulgarian loan and
has permitted the Austrian consul at
Sofia to renew his ostentatious intimacy
with Prince Ferdinand. The check upon
Prince Bismarck's diplomacy is absolute,
and has been the subject of constant COM
munications between this city and Vienna.
Count Herbert Bismarck has written
to Count Kalnoky that the triple alliance
must submit 10 a renewal OF the dangers
of the old position, aggravated by proofs
of the irresolution of the Austrian policy.
Count Crispi, in a short dispatch to the
chancellor, comments upon the increased
irritation of the Italians over the Trentino
affair
A cipher dispatch from Rio de Janeiro
states that in a row in the streets OF Rio
de Janeiro after a public meeting, there
were cries of Down with the republic"
Long live Dom Pedro" etc. and reyolv-
ers We're actively used, several persons be-
ing killed and many wounded. Con-
sentative papers continue to predict
breakup of the republic, and
discuss the probability of the German COL
