CARLISLE AND RANDALL.
Both Opposed to the Proposed New
Code Of Rules.

Mr.. Carlisle has notified Mr.. Reed that he is
ready to attend the meetings of the committee
on rules at any time. Mr.. Reed said that the
majority were not yet ready for meeting, but
that they expected to be in a few days.
When Mr.. Reed gave Mr.. Carlisle q copy Of
the proposed new code of ruies it Was with the
understanding that it was to be held in strict
confidence. He has, there fors, not been able
to confer on the subject with any members Of
his party except Mr.. Randall, who is . mem
Der Of the committee. Mr.. Carlisle's opposi-
ton to the Gods as presented is unqualified
and he will vigorously resist its adoption.
He has conferred with Mr.. Randall and
found that their views on the subject are
in perfect accord. They went very care
fully over the whole subject, considering at
length all the important points. MIR. Randall
asked Mr.. Carlisle to draw up strong minority
report. setting forth the objections to the pro-
posed changes in the rules, and said that he
would sign it. They spoke also Of the course of
procedure to be followed by the party.
1t is not thought that Mr.. Reed will give his
consent to any considerable change. II the
code comes in as it is. however, he may expect
opposition from his own side of the House.

brick walls, which will probably prevent the
fire reaching them. Ciatiin Coburn 81 Co are

HIS HEAD WANTED,
Division Chief Phillips, One OF the Re-
rated Pensioners, to be Removed.

Gen. Raum, the commissioner Of pensions,
| today sent a letter to the Secretary of the In
| terror recommending the removal Of Henry
A. Phillips of New York, the chief of the middle
| division. MIR. Phillips was one of the employees
OF the Office whose pension was rerated during
| the administration of Corporal Tanner.
Several months ago he was asked
| by the Secretary of the Interior to
resign, but failed to comply with the request
No further action was taken in this case or in
that of the other rerated pensioners employed
| in the pension Office. 1t is understood that
| some action will now be taken In the cases OF
| nearly all the thirty employees whose pensions
were rerated. In the Interval that has elapsed
| since the designations of two of the employees
| were requested the friends of the rerated have
had an opportunity to speak in their behalf.
This opportunity has not been neglected, and
numerous letters have also been filed request
ing their retention in Office.
1t Is stated that while all these employees will
not be discharged yet it is not the intention to
allow them to continue to occupy positions of
Importance in the pension bureau. Those that
are not discharged it is said will be reduced to
subordinate places. The action in the Phillips
case Is understood to be only beginning and
other changes in the same line will follow.
PARTICULARS OF PHILLIPS CASE.
The pension case of Phillips was outlined in
the report OF the commission appointed by
Secretary Noble to investigate these rerated
cases. 1t is stated there that Phillips has a dis
ability arising from gun shot wound In his
head and resulting in partial loss of hearing
and memory. He began TO receive pension
of 81 month August 30, 1864. and
III 1881 the rate increased to 80.
He received another increase in January %.
1889, which gave him IS from April 8, 1884; $40
from November 10. 1887, and SIT from August
"a. 1888. He filed another application for in
crease and rerating three months later, on
April o. 1889, which was ordered by Commits
soner Tanner to be made a ''4S-hour case"
On the following day pension issued
allowing him S24 month from March B.
1888. and additional back pension
On May Is Mr.. Phillips was appointed to the
position which he holds up to the present time
Tho commission in commenting upon this
case says Of the last increase: The medical
opinion expressed in nine preceding examine
| tons. extending back to the date of the dis
charge, is set aside and the opinion of an Office
board twenty five years later is substituted The
adjudication of this claim is believed to be
irregular, contrary to the well-established
practice of the Office and in conflict with the
spirit of the law"
In his letter to the Secretary of the Interior
requesting the dismissal of Mr.. Phillips Com
missioner Raum states that he thinks such ac-
ton will promote the efficiency of the service

EARLY sHAD IN THE MARKET.
Ihey Come from the South-One Al
ready Caught I'm the Potomac.

In view Of the unusually open winter the
fishermen hereabouts are preparing for o raid
on the nrst run OF shad and herring in the Po-
tomac. There Ii now on the market Q good
supply OF all sorts Of FISH, mostly from the
south, some coming from far-off Florida. There
are plenty Of shad in the market and they are
selling at reasonable prices Most Of them
come from Savannah, Ga, and a small portion
OF them from Florida. Tsylors, trout spots
and Spanish msckerel are among the summer
fish that are now coming from the Chesapeake
bay.
The Potomac has been fshed all the winter
by the small nets, there being net in almost
every creek. These nets have been supplying
the market with yellow perch, cat fish and eels.
Sun fish, or tobacco boxes, are also being
caught by the thousand
THE RIRsf POTOMAC sHAp OF THE SEASON.
Last week, near Marshall Hall, one small
shad and seven herring were caught in a seine.
This is the only shad that has been caught in
the Potomac this year, so far is known.
VI early shad the North Carolina rivers are ex-
pected to furnish the greatest supply, but few
have been received here so far from the tarheal
state. The Savannah shad are selling at from
30 to so cents each, while Potomac shad OF the
same size would sell for q dollar.
ROCK FISH GETTING SCARCE.
Rock fish, which 10 one of the principal fish
sold in the winter, have been very scarce this
winter and the dealers think that they IRE fast
being destroyed in the Potomac BY the small
nets. They are selling from 20 to 80 cents per
pound. Unless there Is a long spell of cold
weather soon the fishermen expect to be catch
ing plenty of shad next month.

The Tree That Was Removed.

The residence l70l Massachusetts avenue,
from in front of which a tree was removed, is
occupied by Secretary Proctor instead of Sec
rotary Tracy, as Inadvertently stated in The
STAR yesterday, and it was at Secretary Proc
tors request that the tree was removed. Mrs
Grafton, the owner of the property. SAYS that
the object of the interview she and her attor-
ney Mr.. Claughton, had with the District
Commissioners was not to have the tree re-
stored, but to ascertain who was responsible for
what she considers an outrage. According to
Mrs. Grafton's statement she learned from the
papers on file that the Secretary OF War on No.
vember 29 had. through the quartermaster
general, asked that the tree and lamp post
should be removed in order to make way for
the erection of an awning frame for reception
purposes. The parking offcialsw on the prem
Uses and removed the lamp post and reported
to Maj. Raymond the removal of the lamp post
but at the request of Mrs. Proctor the tree had
been spared This report, she says. was APP
proved by Maj. Raymond Subsequently a YER
bal request was made that the tree should be cut
down, and Maj. Raymond gave a verbal order
TO Capt. Rossell to have the tree removed and
the tree was destroyed under this verbal order,
there being no record of the proceedings
Maj. Raymond justified the act upon the
ground that the tree and the land upon which
II stood was public property and with which
the private citizen had nothing to do.

THE WORLDS FAIR sKiRMIsH.
Great Interest in the Votes In the
House Today.

Great interest was taken in the votes upon
the worlds fair question in the House today.
Members representing the competing cities
were active in consolidating their
forces and in keeping their men
in line. Dozens Of members kept tally and
every vote was closely scanned The most en-
ergetic Of the Chicago men were Messra Can
non. Mason, Lawler and Springer. The Mis-
souri, troops we're marshaled by Messrs Hatch,
Dockery, Frank and Bland, while the New York
interests were attended to By Messrs. Flower,
Farauhar and Cummings.
The result Of the contest is that q special
committee Of nine members will be appointed
without receiving any instructions. It may
choose the site if il sees it, but il Is more prob
able that determination Of that question will
be relegated to the House.

Mr.. Armes was not satisfied with the opinion of
the druggist and he had the case continued

her, but the court could not accept bail on ac-
count OF the recent decision OF Chief Justice

preme court has sent down its decision in the
