BACHELOR WILL RESIGN.

WASHINGTON, May 13.-George ). Bach
ellor of New York, assistant secretary OF
the treasury, has stated to his friends that
he does not care to retain the Office and
that he is candidate for the mission to
Turkey The duties of the office rs they
are now distributed are very onerous and
irksome and not to the tastes of Mr.. Bach
ellor. He is assigned to the appointments
in great part. which is IA duty which he
finds not particularly agreeable. Mr..
Bachelor, unlike most office seekers, is
quite able financially, If be does not find
the post he likes, to decline government
service. He served long rs one of tho
Judges OF the mixed court at Cairo, Egypt
and is well informed on diplomatic ques-
tions which arise in connection with the
Turkish government. Naturally be is
well qualified for the position of minister
to Turkey, and he aspires TO that place.

ARRESTED FOR MURDER

NEW BRUNSWICK, y. j., May 13.-De-
tectives this afternoon arrested NJ II.
Hendrickson, general freight and passen-
ger agent of the Raritau River railroad, at
his house in South Amboy, and lodged him
in Jail in this city. He is charged with the
murder of George kressinger, who was
killed last Sunday in the riot at Sayreville.
The charge was preferred by Edwin Fur
man, whose lands Hendrickson and his
men trespasscd upon with the railway
track. Hendrickson protested his limo
cence of the death of kessinger. He says
he was not present when the man met his
death. 1t has been stated that Hendrick-
son led the railroad men, but fed when
the fighting began. No difficulty was ex-
perienced in making the arrest, very few
knowing of the intention Of the prosecut-
ing attorney, and no demonstration was
made either here or at South Amboy.
The prisoner is held without bail.

MAY BE REiNSTAIEn.

WAsHINGToS, May 13.-The treasury de-
partment has made a decision Of interest
rs to the operation Of the year rule, within
which. it is claimed, dismissed employees
cannot be reiustated. The treasury has
sent to the new appraiser at New York the
papers in the case of Edward Sherer, the
sugar appraiser. who has made application
for reinstatement to his new position. The
point was raised at the time that Nr
Sherer could not be reinstated because he
had been dismissed for more than a year
and that ne was therefore Ineligible for re-
instatement under the famous rule To- Bat
1t appears that the application Of 1lr
Sherer for reinstatement had been made
long before the year had expired in his ease
and the reason it VAS not acted upon was
because the then administration OF tbs
treasury was hostile 70 him. The action
upon the application for reinstatement did
not depend upon anything t5at Ar. Sherer
could himself do, and II is held that BE
cannot be made TO suffer from the lashes
OF the treasury officials

THE IRRlGATING PROBLEM.

Ell PAso, Tex, May 13.-Col. Arson
Mills, of the United States army, is
actively engaged at Fort Bliss investigat-
Ing the great irrigation problem Of the

lied Major Powell, who had charge of that

natural resources for The storage of water
III the wet season to lrrigate the lands in
dry season. He explained that the Rio
Grande was the most prominent torrential
stream in America, and suggested the idea
OF great international reservoir just
above FL Paso for the storage of the vast
quantity of water wasted in the wet
season. His idea is to have the dam
stretched square across the river for the
benefit of those residing on each side, TO
at no time stop the flow of the river but to
save the torrent waters and regulate the
flow, and, therefore, regulate the channel
OF the stream. The idea was approved by
Maj. Powell, VINO believes that
If the dam is of an interna-
tional character, and Mexico will do her
part by it, that congress will make a
liberal appropriation for the work
Colonel Mills will make the necessary sur

constant flow of water through the proper

PERRIN IN AMERICA.

ATCHIsoN, Kan. May 13.-Perrin. the
man who recently discharged a pistol at
President Carnot in Paris, was formerly a
resident of Kansas and for d year or two
was employed by the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe railroad at Atchlson. This was
before the road had Kansas City connec-
ton, and all transfers of immigrants were
made here. He was an accomplished lin
guist and spoke fiuently all the European
tongues. His duties i'll the railroad SER
vice were to direct immigrants, pro-
tect them from sharpers and see
that their wants were at
tended to. When he left Atchison
he went to the old Kansas Pacific road,
and afterward returned to Europe, where
he was born. He was of Franco Russian
descent, and was the son of a countess.
Before coming TO America he was con-
nected with the Russian nilhilists. The
government marked him and he came to
America, drifting to Kansas. After his
stay here he returned to St. Petersb burg,
and was there at the assassination of the
car. lie has been in Kansas once since
when he admitted that he witnessed the
assassination of the car, aud said that he
was arrested three times, but was per-
mitted to 90 free. He was bright fellow,
but restless and impulsive, ready with his
pen and born agitator. The last time he
was heard of by American acquaintance
he WAS an ardent follower of Boulanger,
and was staying in Paris.

CHIMES are particularly wanted. The gov
eminent Is disposed to be particularly lib

IN the case of water works the gov
eminent will guarantee per cent

ticularly desired, and in order to infuse
new blood into the republic, the govern
ment Will pay the passage OF an emlgrant,
give him So month, 80 acres of land a

house, and transport him free from the
seaport to the point where he desires to To-
cate. DIR. Nunez president of the ublic,
Is doing all his power to develop the re-
sources of the country and has decided to
completely change his policy toward the
United States and to favor, as much as he
possibly can, commercial and other friend
ly intercourse between the two republics.
He Will send representatives to the three
Americas conference here.
There has been great change of feel
ing on the part of Colombians toward the
United States. Formerly they were very
suspicious, and it was all because they
totally misunderstood the Monroe doc
trine. They thought that America for
Americans really meant America for the
United States, and that suspicion and
jealousy Were industriously famed by
English, German and French merchants,
whose interest it was to control their trade
The foreign trade of Colombia amounts to
$4,000, 900 annually, and the United States
gets very little Of it. The English and
Germans control most of it. The United
States ought to have it. Carthagena is
only distant four and half days from.

PREPARING FOR WAR.
The Brazilian Government Sides with Par
aguay Against Bolivia.

PANAMA. May 4.-The following is a
translation from an article headed "War, -
which lately appeared in the Journal
da Commerce. of RE de Janeiro: "There
is no doubt that the government is pre-
pairing for war. TO the questions from
the press, to the insinuations of the public
who desire ~ learn what is going on it
answers with silence, which is the most
eloquent proof of the probabilities of an
immediate war. The question is a serious
one and we pray God will not allow the
government to throw us into a war which
Will cost much money and what is worse
the blood of our brothers. RumOrs as
sert the Brazilian government can do
nothing to prevent a conflict between
Bolivia and Paraguay since our
government has suffered a check from the
first power which will seize the territory
in dispute. 1t is also evident that a treaty
of alliance exists between Brazil and
Paraguay and one which, while strength
enlng the republic, guarantees
the interests of Brazil There is no
doubt that we are preparing for war, since
everything indicates that one is imminent
The government is the only responsible
party in this matter and it will have to
give an answer to the country. But what
this answer Will be God only knows Now
IhaG IHe HOnof OF the Brazilian nag can
only be sustained by bathing it
in the blood of our brothers
of America let us not be told war is not at
our doors. The intimate relations exist
ing between the ParagCan and Brazilian
governments are well known and it is
known we hold interests in Paraguay and
therefore under Il preteuce of preventing
an invasion to our territory we send to our
frontiers an army which is FIVE times
largs than is necessary. And yet we
want to pretend we are not threatening
Bolivia and in manner which may cost
us very high ligure.'
