4 T1RIFF QUESTION.
Making q Nice Distinction But In Fave
of the Deplefeh Treasury

WASHINGTON, June "a New Y,
merchant recently informed the treasn
department that he proposed 10 impor
chemical COMPOUND from Europe for /
cleansing of steamship boilers, and that
the article will be sold almost entirely
steamers sailing from the United states
foreign ports for Use on the voyage,
desired 10 know whether ii could be /
ported under bond and then exported wit
out payment of duty.
In reply Acting Secretary SpauIding
formed him that the law provides for t
expectation in bond of imported attic
without payment Of duty and that the g
port bond imposes the condition that d
goods shall be duly landed abroad III
condition he says could not be compl.
with in this instance, inasmuch as the a
ticle in question is not to be landed abro
but is 70 he consumed on the outward 80
age. The cancellation of such bond Col
not be effected and the application nm
therefore be denied as being impractical.

Mayor Wiley and Commissioner
Jester, yesterday afternoon, settled the
question Of the coming police force in
the most peremptory manner. They in
vited Commissioner Lawson 10 a meet
ing in Willis Hotel, at o'clock, at
which they appointed the entire police
force, except twelve patrolmen, which
they graciously allowed Commissioner
Lawson to select. The latter protested
against summary proceedings, but it was
Of no avail
HOW THE FORCE WAS NAMED.
Following is detailed report of the
proceedings at yesterday afternoons
meeting;
Police Commissioner Lawson received
from Mayor-elect Wiley yesterday
morning note stating that there
would be a meeting of the Police Com
mission at 3 o'clock in the Hotel Willis
Mr.. Lawson replied that he had not
been informed by the newspapers nor
anybody Of the mayor-elect having
bonded, and supposing the proposed
meeting would be Of an Informal
nature he requested that Mr.. Wiley
advise him further by 12.45 o'clock at
his residence. Further information from
Mr. Wiley not being forthcoming Mr..
Lawson presumed that the mayor-elect
was busy preparing partisan list
a police officers and did not have time
to reply. Acting on the advice Of coun-
sci Mr.. Lawson went to the hotel at the
appointed time and found the mayor
elect and Dickey's man Jester there.
After arranging some papers Mr. Wiley
offered the following;
Reso'Ucd, That the names of all persons
herewith submitted shall be appointed to
the places for which they are Respectively
assigned on July LIST, 1891, unless they
shall refuse the same or shall be found
upon further examination not qualified or
unit.
Pointing 10 a bundle Of applications
lying on table Mr. Lawson asked Mr.
Wiley whether or not they contained
the names Of the men to be appointed
members Of the police force. lie was
informed that they contained most of
them but not all Mr.. Lawson stated
that he had not brought with him the
names of any candidates, surprising that
no such action rs now seemed evident
would be taken. The resolution pre-
yiously submitted was adopted, as was
also the following, which also was pre-
sented by Mr. Wiley:
hSohcd That MIR. Lawson nrcscnt far
the approval Of this commission twelve
names for patrolmen and that the names
ui the twelve Democrats about to he pre-
scented be removed from the list until MIR.
Lawson shall have presented the twelve
names.
Both resolutions were aloptcd by the
Delaware gazette and state journal. (Wilmington, Del.) 1883-1902, 1891-06-25

name of his selection for chief Mr..
Wiley replied;
81 am not ready to mention name
not single name"
Mr.. Wiley states that no more appli-
cations for position on the force will be
received.
IL have between 400 and 500 and
think that is enough to select good men
from"
Already between 40 and so of the
printed application forms have been
sent in. Four negroes brought in their
papers while the reporter was speaking
with Mr.. Wiley.
Elsewhere ii has been learned that
Mr. testers position is as follows:
Conceding that he was not unwilling
to act on Democratic lines as currently
reported, the statement is made that
when the ultimatum was handed to him
with the detailed list of names, he de-
INJURED in regard to some of them.
Well the reply was, you needn't
Mr.. Jester holds that that statement
entirely freed him from any further en-
gagcments' That ended any compact
with Dickcy.
I'VE fulfilled my engagements and
now ] am free"
The Republicans now broadly assert
he does what he should have done at
first and acts with Mr. Wiley.
In regard 10 these reports Mr.. Wiley
says Of Mr. Jester: "He is far-minded
man and will doubtless do right. lie
deserves support for his present action"
