4 SPASM OF ECONOMY
Reducing the Appropriation for
Our Public Building.
UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT.
Some Important Decisions Concerning the
Sovereignty of the States-The Civil
Service Commission Investigation.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March Especial
telegram to The HERALD THE spasm of
economy under which Congress now is
laboring, bodies no good for the new public
building at Salt Lake. / have already tele-
graphed You that the Senate committee q
week ago had decided to reduce the appro-
priation for the building and site to
S400,0 Senator Stanford, the chairman
of the committee, who is at all times a
broad guage and liberal man, with a hearty
contempt for petty economy in great ma
tional affairs, fought the proposition bit
terly when it came up in committe, but
was outvoted by his colleagues.
In this condition the bill will
pass the Senate when it comes
up before that body as it will possibly,
within few days What fate the bill will
suffer in the House can only be coniectured.
l asked leading member of the House
committee to-day in what form it would be
reported to the House. He shrugged his
shoulders significantly and said: ssIf the
Senate cuts the appropriation down to
100000 the House will not think it has
done its duty unless it goes the Senate one
better and lops off fifty or one hundred
thousand more. ] appreciate the fact
that Salt Lake ought to have the
appropriation of half million dollars
for federal building, but she will not get
that sum or anything like it. AS soon as it
was understood that Salt Lake expected an
appropriation of that magnitudewe received
scores of letters from cities the size of Salt
Lake protesting against the appropriation
on the grounds that they were compelled to
be satisfied with less and that no fayoritism
should be shown to the Utah metropolis. ]
have no doubt the Senate committee re-
ceived similar complaints and that these
furnished an excuse for reducing the ap-
preparation to S400,000

The Baseball Pool.

CHICAGO, March 3-An astonishing COM
munication was made public to-day by
General Secretary Brunell, OF the Players
National league. The surprise is the ap-
parent disclosure, more or less complete,
that the supposed animosity and rivalry be-
tween the Players organization and National
league is largely in the nature of blind to
the public. The whole thing in nut shell
would appear to be that, as rumored at in
tervals since the famous split of baseball
men, they understood the art of forming
trusts and pool making, precisely as prac-
tlced In other business enterprises. Secre-
tary BrunelPs letter is addressed
to President Young, of the Ma
tional league. 1t gives a. synopsis
of the Players schedule, showing the dates
the eastern clubs play ins the west, and
vice versa, and further says an outline is
sent so that the National league ian avoid
conflicting with our clubs ''May I also
suggest that the National league adopt a
resolution permitting its clubs to play
against those of the Players league before
and after the championship seasors Such
permission being granted it would also be
necessary for the National league to repeal
its un-American resolution which boycotts
all clubs playing against those of our or
ganization as well as any clubs which NAV
play with or which has PLAYED against a
PlayerS' clubn

In the House.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-O'Donnell, of
Michigan, at the request of the Seventh
Day Adventists of the United States, pre-
sented a petition bearing 900 names pro-
testing against the passage of any bill in
regard to the observance of the Sabbath.
Referred.
A joint resolution was passed authorizing
the appointment of thirty additional medi-
cal examiners for the pension bureau.
Perkins moved to suspend the rules and
put upon its passage the Senate bill for the
organization of the territory of Oklahoma

motion was lost

McComas, Federal Election BIN.

WASHINGTON, March BIN the House,
to-day, McComas introduced bill, which
was referred, to regulate in part, the time
and manner of holding elections for repre-
sentatives to Congress. 1t provides that in
leach state entitled to more than one rep
resentative in the Fifty-third and subse
quent Congresses such representatives
shall be elected by districts, which shall
have as nearly as practicable an equal num-
Der of inhabitants, SO that the most popu-
lous districts shall not have more than
Il, 900 inhabitants in excess of the least
populous. Districts should be composed of
territory contiguous, adjacent and com
pact 1t further prevents the redistrict-
ing of any state except on the occasion of a
federal census and prohibits such redis-
tricting for the election of members to the
Fifty second Congress.
The committee on public buildings and
grounds to-day reported favorably the fol-
lowing bills for the construction of public
buildings: Sacramento, Cal, increasing
the appropriation $150,000; Portland, Ore,
S400, DOC; Stockton, Cal, SIS, 600.
Complaint again has been made to the
treasury department that Mexican laborers
are being imported into Texas for work on
the Texas & Pacific railway, in violation
of the alien contract labor law. 1t is said
that in order to evade the law no contract
is made with the men until after they are
in United States territory. An immigrant
inspector will probably be ordered to Texas
to investigate the matter.

THE BRITISH COLONY
At st. Petersburg is Startled by
an Official Scandal.
THE BISMARCK SUPERSTITION
Figures In the Case-The Great Chanceilor'S
Most Successful Antagonist Apparently
Coming Under the Fatal Influence.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.1
LONDON, March 3.-[By cable to the
New York Times There have been ru-
mors here for several days of scandal in
the official British colony in st. Peters
burg, although the matter has been severely
kept out of the papers, which threatens
to compel change in the British embassy
there.
A ST. Petersburg correspondent sends
me an account which says that Victor
Morier, son of Sir Robert Morier, at
tempted to commit suicide by shooting
himself with q revolver at ball and gives
two reasons for the act, to both Of which
ne seems to attach credit One is that a
defalcation was discovered at the embassy
month ago, which the Russian police, on
being called in, traced uncomfortable near
young Morier The other is that he met at
the ball in question, which was given by
Polish aristocrats in the hall of mobiles, the
wife o! an Irish earl who was there with
her husband, and others, and is
somewhat celebrated for her beauty.
Morier presumed on his previous friendship
to attempt liberties, and received such a re-
buff that he shot himself. Young Morier
counted so fully on the lady's consent to
elope that he had a conveyance ready out
side, with furs and swift horses, for the
flight. On her refusal a scene ensued, and
he then shot himself at o'clock Sunday
morning. =
Unfortunately, it is understood that sim
liar behavior on the part of the young man
led to his hastily leaving Constantinople
while ago. ST. Petersburg opinion takes it
for granted that this painful episode will
involve the recall Of the young mans
father, and it is noted with semi-supersti-
tious interest that Sir Robert Morier has
been chiefly distinguished as the one antag-
onist of Bismarck who has held his ground.
1t will add enormously TO the strange Bis
marck legend, to which Arnim, Skobeleff,
Gambetta, Prince Rudolf, Boulanger and
so many others have contributed, if this,
the doughtieSt of his enemies, is also I'M
horsed.
Grand Duke Vladimir's disgrace at court
is due to the discovery that 400, 900 rubles
have been stolen from the treasury of the I'm
peal acadamy of fine arts of which he was
president. The money was intended tc
cover the cost of a fine church being built
in Catharine canal, the site of the late
Cars murder. I The defalcation was
learned by the fact that needy sculptor
discounted his bill of 9, 900 rubles for work
done. The bank which took it learned
there was no cash. The Car has appointed
commission of officials to investigate the
matter and it is said there will be a furious
scandal over 1t. On a previous occasion
when the suggestion arose that his brother
might be sent to the Caucasus, the Car
said Vladimir really was not sufficiently
responsible for his acts to be banished but
this last exploit will probably exhaust the
imperial patience.

Each Day to Mrs. j. IT, Blaine, jr.
Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.1
NEW YORK, March 3--Few of Mrs Ken
dals admirers know that she is not only
noted actress, but also most successful
nurse. About two weeks ago she called on
Mrs. j. q. Blaine, jr., and found her in bed
suffering great pain. He condition aroused
the ready sympathy of the celebrated ac-
tress. Tossing aside her gloves and wraps
and tying an apron round her waist, she
bent over the sick bed and gave the patient
a scientific rubbing and treatment which
showed her mistress of the art. Ever
since that visit Mrs Kendall has devoted an
hour each morning to rubbing the invalid
and applying some kind of oil of her com
pounding. meanwhile cheering her with
hopeful words. Now Mrs. Blaine is able
to leave her bed and recline in an invalid's
chair. The magic gift of healing is, 1t
seems, frequently used by Mrs. Kendall IN
London hospitals where she has regular
visiting days. She enjoys moth
ing 80 much as nursing patients
doctors. She says frankly that she knows
nothing of the science of medicine, and she
rejects the idea that she has any special
healing power, maintaining that her sue
cess is due to the common sense hygenic
principles. 81 am ever so much BETTER
said Mrs Blaine, "and Ihope to get alright
with crutches before long. 1 was com
pletely discouraged until Mrs. Kendall
came, and her treatment has seemed to put
new life into me. There seems to be an
indescribable magnetic force which she
gives out. Or. Wyncoop, who has been at
tending me here long time, heartily en-
dorses all that Mrs. Kendall does. Although
may have to give up nay idea of support
ing myself by acting, have hopes now
that l may do something in musical

CATION of the charges against the civil ser
vice commission to-day, Hatton, Of the
Post, who, in the absence of Ewart, con-
Quoted the prosecution, called attention
TO the remaining charges against the COM
mission. These were, that the commission
since its organization to the present time,
by manipulation of the rules and regula
tons brought about results in violation of
the spirit and letter of the law. They, by
colluslon with departmental officers, secured
places with little reference to qualification I;
that relatives of the officers of the commits
sion had been attached to the commission
gaining knowledge of the secrets of the
commission, privileges denied Senators and
Representatives, without compensation
and IN direct violation of the law; that
offenses which resulted in the dismissal of
officers of one political party were con-
doned when committed by officers of the
other political party.
In regard to the first charge Harton said
that Representative Butterworth wantedit
amended so as to find how it was thatunder
Republican administration nine-tenths
OF the appolntees to the civil service were
Republicans and under a Democratic adj
mlnlstration the same proportion were
Democrats. The scope of the amendment
would bring the matter to the attention of
tne cOnHllIuee Wnen III discussed the gen
eral workings of the civil service system.
Commissioner Thompson, in reply to
question by Hatton, said the civil service
commissioner had not taken any steps to
secure Shidy's removal from the census
office where he was now employed, and he
(Thompson) did not propose to take any
further steps for or against him.
Ex-Postmaster Paul, of Milwaukee, was
then called He was appointed postmaster
by President Cleveland in 1889, and at the
time was vice-president of the civil service
association of that city Of forty-five resig-
nations in the Milwaukee postoffice during
his term, only one was asked for :;
the rest were voluntarily given; politics
had nothing to do with thequestion of these
designations. Proceeding to the question
of the civil service examining board
for the postoffice, Paul said the
duties of the board were discharged
entirely Independently of himself AS
Postmaster Paul said that he never has as
serted, advised or controlled Shidy in the
discchrge of his duties. The commission,
he said was wholly misled by the cunning
and want Of veracity of Shidy. 1t was
Shidy's laundering record that caused all
the trouble. although he did not think it
was done with criminal intent on his part
but his blunders were innocent. Paul
said he never had access to the records OF
| the local examining board.

Rev. Peter Fl. Feron,y Death.

PHILADELPHIA, March 3.-Investigation
into the mysterious death of Rev. Peter
H. Feron, mentioned in these dispatches
yesterday, discloses the fact that he has
been an outcast from the church for a
number of years, intemperance being the
cause of his downfall. He came to this
city two or three days ago and visited a
dozen physicians in his efforts to get NOR
phine. 1t is understood he finally found
one doctor who gave him bypodermic
injection to relieve his horrors. After
this he drank heavily and subsequently,
fell on the street, where he was found by
the police and taken to the hotel. From
there he was removed to the hospital.
Feron comes of good English family.
