The Trouble at Cedar Keys.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The Presidents
letter transmitting to the Senate informa-
ton about the Cedar Keys, Florida, matter
details the circumstances already familiar
to the public, and adds: 1T will be OBJ
served that the United States collector of
customs at Cedar Keys had been driven
from the office and from town, and the ad-
m1nlstration of the customs laws of the
United States at that pert were suspended
by the violent threats of one Cotrell,
mayor of the place, assisted by his town
marshal, Mitchell. If it had been neces-
sary, as | do not think it can be in any
case, for United States officer to appeal
to the local authorities for immunity from
violence in the exercise of his duties, the
situation at Cedar Keys did not suggest or
encourage such appeal. 1t will always be
agreeable to me if the local authori-
ties, acting on their own sense of
duty, maintain the public peace.
When this is not done, should deem it my
duty to use the adequate powers vested in
the executive to make it safe and feasible
to hold and exercise the offices established
by the federal constitution and laws. The
means used in that case were, in nv
opinion, lawful and necessary and the
otncers do not seem to have intruded upon
any private right in eXecutingit. The letter

Inspection of Dressed Meats.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Senator Paddock,
from the committee On agriculture and for
estry, today reported ill for the inspec-
ton of meats and meat products subject to
Interstate commerce. 1t is intended as a
substitute for the bill reported from Vests

spection of animals at the slaughter houses
where killed and Of canned meats at the es-
adjustments where put up.
The House committee on postoffices to-
day had under consideration bill to make
eight consecutive hours days work for
postal clerks. Postmaster General Wanna
maker opposed the bill, insisting that it's
provisions were impracticable He OPP
posed an ironclad rule of this kind. but
asserted that if he were allowed an annual
appropriation Of 100000 he would bring the
service in first ana second class offices
around to an eight-hour basis, which would
be satisfactory to EMPLOYEES.

BELGRADE, June 6.-The attack of
Arnauts, on a Servian village on the
frontier proves to have been an unprovoked,
brutal outrage. The inhabitants were
driven out of their houses in the,dead of

the fright and confusion they were fired
upon by the Arnauts, who were lying in
ambush around the village, and rushed in
upon them. The barbarlties which fol-

They resembled the Bulgarian atrocities.
