webb,s Opinion of the Decision.

New York, Aug. 25.-In reply to
the question: 'What do you
think Of the action of the
supreme council of the United Order of
Railway Employees at Terre Haute!''
Webb said theirs was the only wise
course to take. ''Whether the knights of
Labor will now take further steps will
make but little difference. There are
only few knights in the employ of
New York Central. 1t is a queer com
mentary that the supreme council of the
federation can find no grievance upon
which to order strike; yet they cen
sured the New York Central and it's
officials. They also decline to give any
support to the strike, but expect the pub
lie to furnish it"

The sundry Civil Appropriation Bill.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-An agreement
has been reached upon the sundry civil bill
by the conferees upon the paragraphs re-
lating to irrigation and public land surveys.
For the survey ofpublic lands the conferees
fixed the sum at S425, 200; $4,000 for addi-
tional clerk hire IN the offices of the sur
veyor-general was striker out For the
topographic survey the conferees agreed
upon 1875, O00 One half of this sum is to
be expended west of the Tooth meridian of
longitude. The item appropriating $12O. 600
for irrigation survey was stricken out. The
appropriation for engraving maps of the
survey was increased to $4,000 On the
public land question compromise is
reached by repeating so much of the law of
1888 as provides for the withdrawal of the
public lands from entry, occupation and
settlement. All entries made in good faith
and valid, but for said act, shall be recog-
nized and may be perfected in the same
manner as if said law had not been enacted,
except that reservoir sites located or
selected shall remain segregated aid re-
served from entry, or settlement. No per-
son shall be permittedhereafter to acquire
title to more than 800 acres on the aggre
gate under all of said laws

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
SARATOGA SPRINGS, Aug. 24.-Post-
master General Wanamaker has been rest
ing here for week. He spends his time
sitting on the hotel piazza gossipping and
telling stories. He was asked for the real
story of the exclusion of Tolstoi's novel,
the ''Kreutzer Sonata, from the mails, and
this is what he said:
1.-The prohibition of 'kreutzer Sonata by
our store had nothing to do with me, and
the book was passed upon there long before
it came up as non-mailable matter. As
TO our orders for the book, the store is
divided into departments, and the head of
each department attends to the business of
that department. We often receive offers
of so many copies OF certain book at re-
duced price If we will take them within a
certain number of days. and this was the
offer in regard to 'kreutzer Sonata ,
For some reason or Otner the offer was not
accepted at the time it was made and when
the order was sent it was after the limit
for the reduced price had expired and it
was not accepted. In the meantime the
book department had heard several criti-
read with view to seeing wheter it was
what we wanted to sell. on our counter.
We have certain rules of.gselection in our
book trade and we do not sell French
novels OF low grades of morality, the sto-
ries of Oudia or other books of similar i'm
moral tendency. [ don't mean to say there
are not beauties in many of these works
Some of the novels Oudia abound in beau
tiful passages and thoughts, and l have
written out some of them in mynote books
This book of Tolstoi was reported by our
reader as below our STANDARD in this re-
spect. For that reason werwould not sell
it. All this we decided before objection was
made to carrying it through the mails The
book was referred to the attorney general
of the department, Judge Tyner. He read
the book, decided it was indecent and it was
consequently excluded. The John Wanna
maker firm of Philadelphia has nothing to
do with it,
''How about yourself. Mr.. postmaster
general, have you read it?''
81 have' replied Postmaster General
Wanamaker..
''And what do You think of ita'
81 do not think it is tit book for young
girls or young men to read and it is not a
book l would like to take home to my

Cooper, however, was not TO be out
done IN the matter, but has under
taken the prosecution Of Commissions
or ltaum, ana has developed the fact
that Mr.. Smyscr, OF ONO, q mem
Der Of the committee, is a partner
with Raum in the refrigerator bus.-
ness, the very matter TO be inVcstiga-

niny before the bar of Che House to
resign his place. Mr.. Reed apollo
gized for his appointment, stating
that he did not know Smyser WAS n
partner in the business, but the ere
duliiy Of the country must be
strained to believe that lie tells the
truth. However, his statement to
that effect is very severe rebukc to
Smyscr, for he certainly knew if,

the bitter partisans would have de

could, and the whole matter looks
