WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 2, 1889:
The President having returned, the White
House was bsseiged with Office seekers this
morning, few of whom, however, obtained
an interview with Mr.. Harrison. Several
members of the Cabinet and Col. Clsrkson,
Assistant Postmaster General, had inter-
views with him, the latter. 1t was under.

some of the Virginia postofices. The Col,

Gen. Malone, and 1t goes without saying
that any recommendations he may have
made on the subject referred to were In favor
of the applicants whose applications bear
the potential signature, "Mahone."
A German lawyer from Cincinnati, largely
interested in the breweries of Ohio, here to-

COUPONS FOR CosT.-As heretofore stated
in the GAZETTE the question whether cou
pons are receivable as we'll for the costs as
the 6ues was brought squarey before Judge
Bopd in the recent case of Mitchell, of Man.
chester. The Judge holds that in no sense
can it be claimed that the defsndent Ia In
any way indebted to the officers of the court
in their individual capacity for work and la
Dor expended in his behalf. but that the
costs are part of the punishment for dis
obeying the laws Of the State, and that the
officers of the court claim them not In their
Individual capacity, but in the capacity of
officers IF the State. If the costs be debts
due to the officers personally they could sue
Mitchell for them, but he could not be i'm
prisoned for non-pay ment of the judgments
Judge Bond therefore directed that the de-.
PENDANT be discharged upon surrendering to
the sergeant the coupons for the fines and
costs. Il ia probable the decision of this
point will lessen the number of cases arising
under the coupon controversy.
This is the first instance in which the
court has decided that costs of court are
payable in coupons, and the bondholders
have doubtless scored great victory.

Disaster in Glasgow.
THE LIVES OF FIFTY WOMEN
SUDDENLY EXTINGUISHED.
Instantly Crushed to Death.

GLASGOW, Nov. 2.-During the high
wind which prevailed here yesterday a
gable of a building in course of erection
on the site adjoining Templeton's car
pet factory, on William street, was
blown down. The falling debris crashed
through the roof of the weaving depart
ment of the factory where 140 women
and girls were employed, and a number
were buried beneath the broken tim
bers, etc. 1t is probable that forty of
the inmates of the weaving room were
killed.
The wrecked building was 800 feet
long. tits rumored that the foundation
of that portion of the building which
fell was over an abandoned coal pit.
Survivors relate that sudden extin-
guishment of the lights in the weaving
department was the only warning they
had of the disaster. All of the occu-
pants rushed with one accord to the
main exit, where most of the bodies OF
the victims were found.
Twenty five bodies have thus fal
been recovered, and the number of mis-
sing ones is placed at thirty. The
search for the remaining bodies is going
on as rapidly as possible. The disas
ter occurred shortly after the workmer
engaged in the construction of the new
building had ceased work.
The latest estimates places the loss o
life at fifty. The pecuniary loss is SIS,
! 600.
