hensive and useful address on the pastor aud

preciative discussion, in the course of which

HE WAS AN ENGLISHMAN.
And He Was Sent Out to Get Inter-
views on the Cronin Mystery.

One Of the correspondents on the staff of
New York paper had an interesting experience
last night and ii is more than probable that for
years to come he will dream
Of dynamite and bowie knives and
the Phoenix park assassinations. Early in
the evening telegram reached the Washington
Office requesting the laborers at this end to get
out and interview all the prominent freshmen
they could find on the subject of the
Cronin mystery in Chicago. Five minutes later
the correspondent was out seeking his prey,
and within a few minutes more he had dis
covered a whole nest Of prominent Irishmen
at one of the big hotels. The party included
such brilliant emeralds as Prtrick Egan and
John Finerty, with a liberal sprinkiing Of such
well-known local leaders as Walsh and O'Far-
rell
To introduce himself was an easy operation.
but the mere introduction spoiled his chances
for obtaining either news or opinions on the
Cronin case. The correspondent had the for
tune or misfortune to have been born
in England. and the first few words he ut
tered made every one of the Irishmen glare
at him with what seemed to him to be an I'M
necessarily savage expression, Then they
roasted him. They refused to believe
that be was a newspaper man and called him a
spy, contemplate hireling, bribed with Brit
ish gold to accumulate information which
might be used to damage the cause of home
rule.
They abused him without STINT and some Of
their remarks caused zero-iike chills to play up
and down his spinal column. He de-
clares that they conversed in whispers as
to what they should do with him, and he felt
fully convinced that the next sensation would
be his own mysterious disappearance, to be fol-
lowed a week or two later by the discovery Of
his mutilated corpse, stuck wrong end up, in a
sewer-trap. He retired as soon possible and
swears eternal vengeance on home-rule and
home-rulers. While the jocular Irishmen
laugh at the sweating they gave him.

A LOBBY EXPOSE,
How Legislation is Accomplished in
Illinois.

CHICAGO, May PA morning paper pub
fishes dispatch from Springfield giving an al
legged expose of lobby work in the
state legislature. Some time ago an anti
trust bill was passed by the house with
very little opposition. 1t is now in the senate
and 30 placed that it will require a two-thrds
majority to call it up. 1t is not believed that
this majority can be secured but that the
lature without having been acted on. The
correspondent, it seems, went to
Jacob Bum, president of the Hi
nois Watch company, under the
guise of an emissary from President Avery,
Of the Elgin watch company, to learn
the status of affairs. The correspondent
asserts that Mr.. Burr told him in substance
that there was no danger that the bill would
pass; that the whisky trust men and the watch
case men had fixed the matter SO that the bill
was sure to die; that it had cost about $4,000
to do this.

MINISTER PRESTON TALKS.
The Haytian Representative Thinks
Legitime Should BE Recognized.

NEW YORK, May 24.-At the Office Of the
Haytian consul this morning Vice Consul Sim
gleton said that Minister Preston had not as vet
seen the report Of the Boston's departure for
Hayti, with government commission aboard
for the purpose Of examining into the statues
Of foreign government In that country and to see
If there exists any necessity for American inter.
ference. "For my part" said Mr.. Singleton.
II cannot see any reason for the visit of any
such commission unless it be to see
if everything is all right before this
government recognizes Legtime. England
and France, believe, have already recognized
Legitime and Germany, and Spain will un-
doubtedly do the same. For ourselves we do
not expect any news before the arrival of the
next Dutch steamer"
The Boston is being prepared for sea, but it
is the opinion OF one of her officers that fully
two weeks will be required to get the vessel
ready.

Great Washonfs in the West

KANSAS CRY, No., May 24-The Denver
express on the Union Pacific railroad,
which left here last night, rolled back
into the Union depot this morning for break
fast. The train proceeded as far as the state
line last night and there it stayed. The
tremendous hail and rain storm last
evening caused washouts and similar
causes for delay on the track between here
and Lawrence. Kan, and it was thought best
not to send out "a train. The Rock Island
uses the tracks of the Union Pacific
for considerable distance between
here and Topeka. and to-day both roads are
using the Santa Fe and Missouri Pacific tracks
temporarily. The storm seems to have spent
most of its force in this vicinity, although pas
sengers from western and northern Kansas re-
port fierce hail and wind storms

Chicago Markets,
Leaves at the Government Printing
Office.

The matter of leaves at the Government
printing office has caused considerable discus
sion and been the subject of many official reg
ulations and decisions by accounting officers.
Recently, as stated in The STAR Controller
Matthews decided that he would construe the
law as allowing employees leaves for thirty con-
secutive days and not thirty working days.
Thus Sundays and any intervening holidays
will be counted in the thirty days. Public
Printer Palmer has already given considerable
attention to the matter, and one result
has has been that the system of pro rata
administration has been abolished. Under
that system man could have any absences
during month not exceeding two and one
half days charged on his leave and not
lose pay. This resulted, it is said,
i'll a confusion of accounts, and also had bad
effect On the employees. 1t has been decided
to grant leaves only for fifteen or thirty days
at time. Mr.. Palmer has issued the follow
ing regulations governing leaves of absence.
Under acts OF Congress approved June 80,
1886, and August l, 1888. the employees Of the
government printing office are allowed leaves
OF absence under such regulations and at such
time as the public printer may designate. The
following regulations will be strictly enforced:
l. In case OF resignation, discharge, or death,
the pro rata leave oil absence provided under
act approved August l, 1888, will be paid
2. Employees sick or disabled, upon the certi-
ficate OF the foreman of printing or foreman of
binding. may receive the proper credits for
necessary absence computed in accordance with
the acts of Congress and the decision of the
controller thereon, hereto annexed.
8. Applications for leaves of absence, with
pay, only when approved by the foreman of
printing or foreman of binding, will receive
the attention of the public printer.
4. Unused leaves of absence, after one years
continuous service, will be computed and set
tied within Is days after the close Of the fiscal
year. unless the employee should desire it to be
reserved, to permit absence from work
in accordance with. the third
regulation, provided the chief time
clerk be notified on or before July /,
upon the blanks provided for that purpose,
through the foreman Of printing or the FORE
man OF binding.
All prior Regulations are hereby annulled.
