PEELED to place their business entirely in
the hands Of the Globe Contract Com
pany of Wheeling, who now carry COM
plete stock of their safes at No. 33 Four
tcenth street. This arrangement will
relieve the Barnes Company of a great
deal of detail work, and will put within
the reach of our merchants something
that has long been needed, that is, 4
stock of safes from which to purchase
what they want. While photographs
and cuts can be made to answer, they
can never give the assurance that is
felt when one personally examines what
he is intending to purchase. The stock
carried by the Globe Company is prac-
tically a duplicate of the stock carried
by the Barnes Company in Pittsburg.

Fruitless Attempt of Bandit to
Rob q PaymaStep.


Rob a Paymaster.
CINCINNATI, Aug. 30.-Addyston, O.,
was the scene of very sensational at
tempt at robbery this morning. About
9 o'clock stranger wearinga long linen
buster was observed walking around
near the station when the train from the
city arrived at 10 O'Clock bearing the
paymaster with about $4,000 in cash, to
pay off the employees of the AddyStOn
Pipe and Steel company. The stranger
put on black mask and ran up to the
company's policeman, who held the
money in large Satchel, and, present
ing a revolver in each hand, ordered him
to drop the swag, and Immediately
began firing. The policeman dropped
the Satchel and pulled his revolver and
fired two shots at the man, when he took
to his heels, returning the fire after he
had run some distance. When he got
outside the grounds he mounted horse
that was in waiting and took north
westerly direction, holly pursued by
about 500 of the employees. He threw
off his buster when he got about quar-
ter of mile. The pockets were filled
with 44-caliber cartridges. Soon
after this he abandoned the horse. In
the excitement he dropped one of his
revolyers, now in possession of the Off
GERS of the pine company. Joseph Lay
cock, the policeman, was shot twice,
both times in the neighbornood of the
groin. One of the company's engines
was passing just as the firing COM
menced, and the engineer. thinking he
was being fired on, abandoned his en-
CINE and ran. The engine, left without
a guiding hand, ran through the foun-
dry yard into lot of dump cars and
made total wreck of itself and the
cars.

PACIFIC RAILROADS DEBTS
A Minority Report Against the
Funding Scheme,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 50.-A minority
report on the joint Pacific railroads fund
ing bill was submitted to the house to-
day by Representative DalzeIl, of Penn
sylvania, the chairman of the Pacific
railroads committee. The bill covers
the Central Pacific and Union Pacific
roads. The report, which is signed by
five members, says that, while the
minority agree in their opposition to the
proposed measure, their agreement is
based on different reasons, and it has
been deemed advisable, therefore. to
refrain from Individual views, and to
join in report which shall simply ex-
press the dissent of all to the majority
bill. Continuing, the report says that
some of the members are clearly Of
the opinion that legislation looking
to the refunding of the Pacific railroad
debt to the government is premature at
this time, and that the changes that
may occur in the financial situation be-
tween the present time and 1S97-When
the debt will mature-may prove any
action taken at this time to have been
unWiSe. Funding acts can as we'll be
passed, says the report. years hereafter
when the relation between the govern
ment and its debtors can be intelli-
gently grasped. The minority are
unanimous in the opinion that the rail
road companies are not justified in ask
ing any arrangement upon business
principles, except upon the basis that
they shall pay the uttermost farthing of
their debt. They are not satisfied that
the true condition of the railroad COM
panies have been frankly and honestly
presented to them, and are clearly of
the opinion, they say, that the majority
bill does not secure the United States
all that it ought to have or that the
companies are able to pay.

AsBURY PARK, n. j.. Aug. 30.-The
high surf of last night and this morn

carried away all of the ocean promenade
on Third avenue. Hundreds of feet of
the beautiful board walk has been de-
stroyed. All of the bath houses are

breakers. AS early as 6 O'Clock this
morning thousands of persons cOngre-
gated to watch the surf complete what

breakers rising twenty feet and dash

promenade. The sea not only tore plank
ing to pieces and ca rried off bath
houses, but ate into the lawn back of
the walk to the depth of twenty-five
feet at several points. The electric
light poles also went down. Although
lines have been drawn from Third ave-

at S25, 600. Hundreds of men are EN-

The Nicaragua Canal Company
Will Not Lose Its Charter.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The house
committee on commerce, through its
chairman, Mr.. Baker, of New York, to-
day made an adverse report on the
bill to repeal the act incorporat-
ing the Maritime Canal company
of Nicaragua. The report says: "Hav-
ing carefully examined the condition
of affairs Of said company for the pur-
pose of determining whether any
abuse of the powers and privileges
conferred by the act of incorpo-
ration has been practiced or whether
any of its corporate duties and obi ga
tons have been disregarded, or whether
in the exercise Of its sovereign power,
congress should say that the public
good" is to be subServed by a repeal OF
the charter, your committee conclude
that the exercise at this time
OF powers invoked would be a great
wrong. Such powers have never been
exercised except for the greatest
reasons, and your committee believe
that congress is not yet pre-
pared to exercise powers of repeal
when every reason exists why
IL SHOULD commend rdtllcr tndu

dition of affairs along the line of the
canal the report continues; "The
committee deems it but fair TO an en-
terprlse of such magnitude that
it should be given reasonable time
to demonstrate that those who
have undertaken it are prosecut-
ing the same in good faith, apd that in

Vigorous Protest Against the

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Mr. Clark
son, first assistant postmaster general,
practically concluded his service in the
postoffce department today. The pres
ident much desired his further contln
uance. but Mr.. Clarkson was unable
to remain longer. 1t is stated that Mr..
ClarksOn assumed the office in March,
1889, only at the strong persuasion of
the president, the Republican national
committee and the leading men OF the
party, and that he has remained in
it since against his own wishes.
He said to a reporter tonight: II ac-
copied this office unwillingly and for a
term of months, not years; and lay it
down gladly. My relations with the
president and the postmaster general
have never been else than cordial
and pleasant. But | have no lik-
ing for of1iceholding. and while the
postal service is one that will absorb
the interest and command the pride Of
any one connected with it, very much
prefer private life and its independ-
ence. The reports that | have given
up Iowa as my home are incor-
rect. 1t is the best state
in the Union and my lot lis cast with it,"
Mr.. Clarks0n wilt very soon assume the
presidency of the Judson Pneumatic
Railway company. which applies new
principles to lOcOmotiOn and to motive
power in cities, and which is now build
ing railway in Washington city.
In his nearly eighteen months in
Office Mr.. Clarkson has appointed 2G.675
fOurth-claSS pOstmaSters, and estab-
lshed $500 new postofficeS. making his
record 81. $50 in all All the appoint
mentS in the p0stotfice department are

and i'll presidential offices 2,217 ap-
pointments have been made during MI.
Clorkson's official time. leaving only 400
of this class of offices unchanged. This
is the largest record in changes
and in establishment of post
offices ever made in the same
length of time. A striking
feature is the number of new offices eS-
tablished. A department official speak
ing of this, said: IN these Offices has
been illustrated Mr.. Clarkson's broad
policy as an official. OF these new
offices created 157 are in the New Eng
land states, 81 in the Middle states.

REAPPoRTEoNMENT GUEssEs
Supt. Porter Makes Some interest
ing Suggestions.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 30.-Supt.
Porter, of the census bureau, through
his newspaper, sounds note of warn
ing against "crazy quilt" congressional
appointments based on census eSti-
mates. lie says, very truly, that i'll the
absence Of official returns too much
trust should not be placed IN the postal
card counts on which all specuIations
are based. Then he goes on to give
some speculative figures which are
striking. He calls attention to the
error made by many reapportionment
prophets i'll failing to make allowance
for the territories, the District of
Columbia, and the Indians not taxed.
Leaving these out he shows that the
basis Oh which eapportionment should
be figured is somewhere between 3d.
100000 and 63, 100000, instead of 64.0O0,-
900, on which most calculations have
been based. While no one can forecast
to a certainty what basis of representa-
ton congress will adopt, the chances
are ten to one that it will increase the
membership of the house to $50 or 355,
and people who like to figure should not
worry with guesses based on the pres
ent membership. Taking Supt. Porter's
unofficial newspaper suggestion, that
10000 be the unit of representation,
the geographical division would be as
follows:
New England states 26IWestern states . AS
Middle states 80. 70
Southern states. JOB Total ........ 353
On such an apportionment the New
England states would just hold their
own, the Middle states would gain

fell back dead on tine fire escape. His
right hand was nearly burned off. As

three, the Southern three, and the West
fifteen. Consequently, either rela-
lively or absolutely. the West would be
the gamer, its increase overwhelming
the East and South in the proportion of
two and a half to one.
All calculations lead to the same re-
suit. The center of political power is
in the Mississippi valley. On this prob
able membership of 353 the electoral
college would consist of AL members.
The increase from the new states was
explained i'll these columns a'fortnight
ago. when an estimate was made on the
basis of house membership of 355.
The conclusion drawn from compar-
ison of the different states electoral
vote was that New York had lost much
of its commanding influence as pivotal
state. 1t is essential to Democratic sue
cess. IL is not a controlling factor in
determining Republican chances.
