BERLIN, Sept. 3.-Phelps, United States

Senator Edmunds' meat inspection bill.
He said: "Public opinion in Germany is

could expect. Different German inter-
ests are bombarding Chancellor Won Ca
privi so hotly we can afford to wait lit
tie. Our latest news is startling appeal.
The municipal authorities of Berlin have
just addressed the chancellor on the
subject. From April, 1889, to April, 1880,
the city of Berlin made a gain
in population OF 60,0OO. According
to the normal rate of consumption
this increase i'm population should cause
an increase Of 10000 head In the importa-
ton of swine, but instead OF that the inn
ports have decreased by 5000 q loss to
Berlin consumption of 5000 year.
Matters have not improved since the
chancellor has withdrawn the edict ex-
Guiding the Austrian pigs. Now only
Russia and America suffer from this un-
just restriction. expect the prohibition
against the Russian pig will soon be re.
moved and then our turn will come. In
the meantime am not a bit discouraged"

standing this fact union No. sent new

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-There is great
excitement here tonight about the speech
in the house of Kennedy, of Ohio,on Quay.
1t was made after5 o'clock to halfa dozen
men on each side. II was a deliberate re-
publican assault on the acknowledged re-
publican leader. delivered from manu-
script, and the press report was pre-
pared from kennedy's own copy. Quay
is called everything except sheep thief.
"Judas Iscariot," !" CONDEMNED criminal"
"corruptionist,' are some Of the tender
epithets that this discoverer Of Wana-
maker and the boss Of the senate is plas-
tered with.
According to the oldest reporter OF the
house no such assault upon any public
man has ever been heard on the floor. II
was delivered upon the Breckenridge elec-
ton case, but there was very little about
the case in it. Kennedy wanted to score
the senate for refusing to pass the
force bill and he pitched into Quay for
having managed to sidetrack that infa-
nous measure. II Quay and his smrched
associates in the senate, some OF whom

PHILIPsBURG, Sept 3.-Josiah ShuII,
the present principal Of the public school
OF Philipsburg, was elected year or 20
ago as school trustee Of the district. His
brother-in-law, W. 7. Allison, and Angus
Mcintyre were the other members Of the
board. These gentlemen have performed
their duties to the satisfaction Of all con-
cerned and their names would not now be
used as the subject Of news
paper comment but for the fact
that Professor Shull also holds the
Office OF justice Of the peace and from
present indications he intends to continue
to hold il until death overtakes, or a tree
falls on him. Frank ID. Brown, the clerk
OF the school board, says that Professor
Shull filed his resignation as school
trustee and an application for the princi-
palship Of the school at the same time.
He was, as matter OF course, promptly
engaged as principal and so far the ap-
pointment gives general satisfaction, an
he is n man Of good moral character and
an educator Of experience.
Mr.. Bacon claims that Mr.. Shull agreed
10 resign the Office Of justice of the peace
at once. That was some time ago and
the friends Of n. II. Connolly, q good
democrat, and n very competent man,
forwarded monster petition 70 the
county commissioners praying for his APP
pointment TO the supposed vacancy. Mr..
Shull hearing of this and probably
acting on the bad advice Of political
friends, now refuses to resign. There
are many who are Of the opinion that he
will delay his resignation until after the
town election in order TO give Judge Bate

to that Office.
James McDonel has been appointed 10
fill the vacancy In the school board

a meeting OF the trustees held last night
brought the matter before the board, but
no action was taken, as so far there has
been no clash OF the two positions. The
school may have to he adjourned any day,

How Chicago's City Treasurers Became

CHICAGO, Sept. "A bill was filed in
the circuit court this morning on behalf
of the city Of Chicago against City Treas
urer Roosing and several banks for an ac-
counting " interest on the city's money
placed in the banks by Roosing. This is
the opening up of the old question which
the city attorney wishes to settle def
nitely. For years il has been the custom
of the city treasurers 10 deposit the city
funds in the banks and To retain the in-
terest received thereon as a personal per-
quisite. This made the Office very de-
sirable one as the interest has for dozen
years past amounted 10 between $4,000
and $4,000 per year.
The bill filed to-day charges that de-
posits were made by Roosing under an
agreement with the banks by which lie
was TO derive pecuniary profit for himself
presumably in the same manner as tina,
mentioned above.
