daughters is to be married to Mr.. Wal.
ter Damrosch, the eminent young mu-
stefan who stepped into the shoes ofhis

as good match for the bride.elect, who
is to get for a husband a young man Of
talent, industry and high professional
standing. Mr.. Damrosch is able to take
good care OF a wife. He is said to have
earned last year $1,000 by his lectures

investors and Spectators for the past few
days added TO the interest ia American se-
curities abroad. One OF the results of this
was the advance in London prices. They
came at quite a fair advance over the closing

ence the market started tame. \ redeeming
feature TO the bulls was the slight gain over
last night OF 1S99S per cent. There were
SOME exceptions, as Jersey Central which
opened n per cent lower. During the first
hour there was no conspicuous feature to the
trading. The general list remained dull and
stagnant throughout, though there was
marked activity developed in few leading
stocks, and AtchisOn, ST. Paul. Missouri

cialties decided strength was shown, and

The other Side.

Postmaster Gallagher was seen by re-
porter, given the substance of the above
communication and asked what he had to
say about it, His replies are reduced as
follows:
l. II discharged Fairfield because of the
accumulation OF complaints of carelessness
from parties on his route His politics had
nothing to do with his dismissal. l know of
q number of other employees of the postoffice
who were called upon to contribute to the
democratic campaign fund, and who did not
do so. They are still at work. There are
considerably more republicans than demo-
Gratis in the Omaha postoffice to-day"
2 "Another ground for his dismissal was
the number of complaints made to me that
he would not pay his private debts. / acted
under the standing rules of the department,
10 dismiss any employe who does not pay his
debts."
g. "My action in this case has been en-
dOrsed by the civil service commission, the
postoffire officials in Washington and Omaha.
including Inspector Brown and Assistant
Postmaster Woodland, who are both Republi-
cans. Also the superintendent of carriers,
who has been In the Omaha Office for twenty
years"
whatever reference was made in my re-
ports to the department officials concerning
Fairfield's connection with Turtles case, l
shall permit to stand, as l have had no good
evidence since which would induce me to
waive my suspicious. My conclusions in that
particular were endorsed by Inspector
BrOWnn
