Purchase the ORDERS organ-struclr q
snng With the brotherhood.
ST.. louis, Mo-, June 10.-The grand
division of the order of railway telegra-
pliers has decided to purchase outright
the organ OF the order, the RailwGy
Tslsgaphsr, published semi-monthly.
1t is now stated that the railway teleg-
raphers and the brotherhood struck a
snag in their negotiations toward COM
ing together. The hitch in the pro-
ceedings, it is said, is caused bya clause
in the, organic law OF the railway peo-
pie, which provides that an operator
must have been telegraphing three
years before he can become member.
The brotherhood people are sticking
out for q one-year qualification; that is,
IN operator must have been in railway
employment for one year only. They
say that the three year limit would bar
out fully so per cent Of the commercial
operators. Another conference between
the two associations will be held to-day,
but according to some Of the delegates
on both sides, it is very doubtful that
an amicable settlement can be reached
unless the order OF telegraphers con-
cede the point of one year qualification.
The following officers have been
elected for the ensuing year: A. d:
Thnrston, Vinton, Iowa, Grand Chief
Telegrapher; S. o. Fox, ,vinton, Iowa,
Grand Secretary; Hon. G. d. Ramsey,
East st. Louis, Assistant Grand Chief
Telegrapher.

PHILADELPHIA, June l0.-The jury IN

the Government to receive excess of
duties levied on material used as hat
trimmings this morning returned yers
dict Of s6S2.4O for the plaintiffs. The

the Supreme Court. By the verdict Of
the jury in this case, the Government is
made liable from the twenty to thirty
millions OF dollars that it haa collected

a test suit and was intended to tet the
right of the Government to collect the
duties on the goods in dispute.
Other pending suits will be affected
by the verdict and that is whore the
large amount Oh money and the great
interest taken by importers comes in.
Taking the suits altogether the import
ers claim the goods in question 70 be-
hat trimmings, and to be dutiable at ~

Tho Treasury Statement Shows Cash Bal
ance Of Over Forty Million Dollars:
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 19.-The
United States Treasurers statement, is
sued to-day, but bearing date June II,
shows an apparent deficiency of $751;
los. This, however, does not include
s23,627, ,412 on deposit with National
banks and $50, 200, $50 of fractional sill
yer. Including these two items, the
cash balance is S,06l,264. Officials OF
the Secretarys office say that exclusive
of National bank deposits and frac-
tional silver, there is an actual available
balance Of S2,S12,0O0 in the Treasury
to-day and that the Treasurer's state
ment, including their receipts to that
date, will show it. There will be CON
stant excess of receipts over expendi-
lures during the remainder of the
month and It is estimated that the net
surplus will be at least seven million
dollars by July /. Treasury officials are
not disturbed by the situation and soy
that the government is amply able to
meet all It's obligations.

A FnANK pREsIpENT.
Pollisrinl, of the Argentine Republic, pil
eusses the Financial Crisis.

Pelligrinl, OF the Argentine Republic, Dis
euSses the Financial Crisis.
WASHINGTON, June l9.-The bureau
of the American Republics has received
copy Of the annual message Of Presi-
dent Pelligrini, of the Argentine Re-
public, laid before Congress on the 9th
OF May last. The President discusses
the affairs Of his country with great
frankness. He states that the country
is at peace within itself and with the
rest OF the world. The only exceptional
measures he has been compelled to
adopt were the declaring OF the city OF
-Buenos Ayres in state Of siege and
the suppression of q few newspapers
that were stirring up strife. Conces-
sions OF national lands covering 10000
square miles, which had been made to
spectators for colonization purposes,
had been revoked, as the holders of the
concessions failed to carry out the con-
ditions on which they obtained the
lands.
Many public works had Of necessity
been suspended for lack of funds. AS.
sisted immigration from Europe had
been stopped. The revenues for 1890
were, in currency, $73, 400, 1000; the eX-
penditures $02, $50 900, leaving q deficit
Of Sl9,5O0,000. The revenues for 1891,
had been calculated at $4,000, 900 gold.
President Pelligrini thinks this state
ment too high in some particulars, but
expresses the hope that the country, by
the aid Of the Moratoribus loan negoti-
ated in London, would be able to pay
its way this year. Trade reports were
encouraging. Exports were increasing
and imports declining.
The financial crisis, the President
says, gets worse daily. The paper mon
ey OF which there were two hundred and
sixty millions in circulation, had sus-
tanned loss of so per cent. He esti-
mates the losses since the crisis began
at 200,0OO,000 pounds sterling. The
National Rank now owes the Treasury
$4,000, 600 currency and 81, 2,0O0, 900 gold.
He considers that the best solution OF
the financial difficulty would be to cor
rect the defects in the State banking
system, revive the credit OF the State
banks and enable them to continue.
For this purpose he recommends par
,liamentary commission. He adds:
"But the gold standard is an insuper.
able difficulty in the way OF resuming
specie payments. If we want n metal
lie basis, we must resort to silver. All
the objections raised against the silver
standard may apply to Europe, but do
not affect us"

WEST VIRGINIA DAY.

"When West Virginia day comes along
we expect the State to turn out and
show itself. That will be a great adver-
tisement for us. We rely, OF course, on
the railroads to give cheap rates. In
my own section OF the State the interest
is already rising high. Some Of the
boys in the Kanawha Valley mines are
already talking about organizing clubs
into which they will pay SO much a
month to lay up fund to take them
to the Worlds Fair. This will go on all
over tho State, and when the time comes
you will see our working men and farm
ers turn out in force. From what
know OF our State board you may expect
good results from its labors. Colonel
Chancellor is q good man for president
and he will devote his time to the work
of arousing interest and bringing to-
gether exhibits. / am satisfied that
when the people Of West Virginia come
to appreciate thoroughly what the ex-
position is and the opportunity it offers
the State, they will take pride in Sec
ing that money is not lacking"
Colonel st. Clair returned to Mounds
Vile last evening and expects to start
for home tonight or tomorrow.

NEw ORLEANS, June 19.-About year
ago Bertram saloy died, leaving an es-
tate valued at 100000, which he willed
to his wife, Carmelite Gorcogno. About
three months ago saloy's widow died
and tho estate was claimed by her sis
ters and brothers and their descendants,
and they were put in possession by or
der of the court. To-day, in the civil
district court, Attorney General Rogers
fled petition OF intervention on behalf
of the State Of Louisiana, which claims
to be the sole heir Of widow Bertram
saloy.
The State alleges that Carmelite Car
cogne, widow of Bertram Saloy, was an
adulterous bastard, the offspring Of the
Legitimate connection between Dolores
Morales, alias Manuella Louisa Morales,
and Antonio Carcogno, late a resident
OF this city and now deceased.
Petitioners allege that during the ex-
istence Of the lawful marriage OF Mrs,
Saloy's mother with her lawful hus-
band, Juan Cortal, or Estal, who lived
in Havana, she (the mother) had been
guilty Of adultery and lived in open
concubinage with the said Carcogno in
this city, and that said Mrs.
Bertram saloy and one Car.
melite Garcogno, now widow OF
Antoine Poins, and Antonio Carcogno,
now deceased, were the fruit of the
said Illicit and adulterous connection,
and not being legal or lawful descend
ants, their descendants have been put
into possession illegally, and for these
reasons the State is the only heir-at-
law.
