Comptroller Lacey Ridicules the ex-
Bank Examiners Defense.
WASHINGTON, August 10.-Comptroller
of the Currency Lacey said today, re-
garding the letter written by ex-Bank
Examiner Drew, in which the latter
defends his official action in connection
with the keystone bank, that the de-
partment had treated Drew with fair
ness and clemency. ''He was charged, "
continued Lacey, with derelic-
ton of duty sufficient to war
rant the removal OF any examiner
in the service. He has confessed the
same and offers no excuse except that it
was an accident. He claims that though
he failed to do his duty at one time, he
ought to be pardoned because he did it
at another.
He has deservedly lost the confidence
of the department :and the public, and
the period of his usefulness as bank ex-
aminer is at an end. The statements made
by Drew differing from the facts in my
communication of June 10Th, are with
out foundation. Drew's claim as to pre-
vious high standing is cheerfully admit
ted, but it serves to aggravate rather
than mitigate his confessed dereliction
of duty, by rendering absurd his plea
that his official report ought to have
been received with distrust until cor
roborated by information from outside

LONDON, August 10.-The seventh an
nual session of the international con-
gress of hygiene and demography opened
in st. James hall this afternoon. The
price OF Wales presided. Among the
prominent delegates were Prof. Pasteur,
of Paris, and Prof. Koch, of Berlin. The
prince OF Wales discoursed learnedly on
hygiene in his opening address, and was
loudly cheered. An immense number
of papers are to be read, and the number
of foreigners who have promised to
speak or read, is such as to show that
the congress will, in the fullest sense,
be International. Among many import
ant subjects in general, is the question
of means preventing the spreading OF
epidemic diseases from county to
country. The subject of tuberculosis
will be widely discussed and papers will
be read on the means OF conferring i'm
muntty from archaeological Affections.
The subject of rabies will receive close
attention.

SPOKANE, WASH. August 10.-At 5 &c
this morning patrolman on Second
street, saw flames issuing from Conway e
lodging house. Before an engine ar
rived, the building was a mass of flames.
All the persons known to have been in
side the building have been accounted
for. Mrs. Conway's brother, a man
about 60 years OF age, was taken out
through second-story window, dead
his face was burned almost beyond
recognition. Just across from him on
the east side of the burning building,
was negro named Washington,
a barber. His hands and arms were
terribly burned, the skin being entirely
peeled off. He will not recover. A
man named Green jumped from the
third story and was injuted internally.
He can hardly recover. j. H. Dwyer,
another inmate, jumped from a
third story window and re-
ceived broken arm. William
Clifford jumped from the third
floor and escaped unhurt. Frank
Browne threw his trunk from the second
story and jumped after it. The trunk
was smashed to pieces, but Browne was
uAhurt. The building was almost en-.
tirely Quilted. Had there been west
wind the entire block would have gone.
The fire is supposed to have been oi
incendiary origin.

A GRAVE SITUATION.
Crop Failures in Russia Cause Apr,

Crop Failures in Russia Cause Appre-
hension In Government Circles.
SIS. PETERSBURG, August 10.-A grave
situation is created by the failure OF
crops in Russia, causing the greatest ap-
prehension in government circles. The
Grashdanin declares that the local ad-
ministration will be made to make pro-
vision for the inhabitants of the dis
tressed provinces if spectators are al,
lowed to export corn or if the artificial
rise in the price OF corn is not checked.
That paper demands that the govern
ment Immediately pass heavy duty on
export rye. The Financial Messenger
declares that it will be almost impossi-
BILE for Russia to export corn this year.
1t is officially announced that the gov
eminent has not yet contemplated issu-
ing decree totally prohibiting the ex-
port of grain, but the partial failure OF
the crops demands that provisions be
made for the people living in the dis
tressed provinces, and consequently the
export OF grain from those provinces
will be restricted by the authorities.

CHICAGO, August 10.-A Washington
special says: A man who talked with
Conger. of Ohio, member of the ma
tional Republican committee, is author
ity for the statement that Blaine's health
permitting, he will be Sin the hands of
his friends" when the nominating con-
vention meets in 1892. He says: "Con-
ger broached the subject to Blaine, who
seemed rather indisposed to talk about
it at all. Conger dwelt at length upon
the steadfastness of Blaine's friends, re-
called numerous instances of their
faithful adherence to him under
any and all circumstances, and
says that his (Blaine's) friends
ought co have something to say. The
Republicans generally wished to see him
president and victory with any other
man as nominee was uncertain. Blaine
showed great feeling when Conger di-
lated upon the faithful service of his
friends and said he had every disposi-
tion to serve them, and the Republican
party too, and would not decline the
nomination in advance. Whether he
told Conger directly that he would take
the nomination do not know, but this
much 1 can say, namely, that Conger
says Blaine will accept it, and SO believe
all of Blaine's friends.'

INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE.
Important Business Transacted by the
Congress at Vienna,

WASHINGTON, August 10. - Captain
Brooks, superintendent of foreign mails,
has just returned from Vienna, where he
was in attendance as delegate at the
international postal convention. The
principal event was the admission of
the Australian countries to the union.
They agreed to come in October l,
this year, provided the international
postal rates are not reduced. They
claim they could not stand the reduc-
ton. The present rate between this
country and Australia is twelve cents
and from that country to this the rate is
six pence half an ounce. This country
will at once reduce the rate to five cents.
Australia may keep its rate at ten cents,
but it is likely it will reduce it at once to
five cents.
Another matter OF interest is the
change in the size OF sample packages
of merchandise which may be sent
through the mails to and from countries
in the union. The new treaty increases
the limit to 12 by by inches-almost
double the old limit.
Yet another measure of public inter-
est is included in the new treaty-a
clause requiring each country in the
union after July /, 1892, to issue double
postal card for foreign use. 1t will
cost cents. The writer indites
his message on one of these
cards, puts the address on the
same card, and mails the combination.
When the addressee receives it he tears
off the card not written upon, writes his
reply on it, addresses and mails it. ANY
country in the union is required to for
ward the card, and the country in which
the double combination card is bought
receives free postage both ways.
The new treaty, which is to go into
effect July 1. 1892, was concluded and
signed July 4th last.
Washington was made the next place
of meeting.

New HAVEN, Conn, August 10.-Nine
Italian laborers were seriously injured,
two fatally in railroad collision, near
Bradford, on the New York, New Haven
and Hartford railroad, this morning.
Those injured were of a party of fifty
Italians in caboose at the end of a
gravel train. This car was run into by
the engine OF freight train. The engine
ran through the car before it stopped.
The engine and fireman jumped and
saved their lives, only to almost lose
them soon after at the hands of the
wrathy foreigners, who gathered about
them. The fireman was knocked down
by piece of coal, but escaped. The
engineer fought his way through the
crowd OF Italians with bar of iron, and
sought safety in the ticket Office.

An Alleged Conspiracy to Destroy Bal

An Alleged Conspiracy to Destroy Bal
maceda's New ships.
LONDON, August 10.-Information is
in possession of the Chilean legation in
reference to conspiracy to destroy the
two Chilean ironclads, Presidente Pinto
and Errazuriz. 1t appears that $751; 900
was offered an English maritime officer
In the service of the Chilean govern
ment if he would undertake to blow up
the Errazuriz. He refused the offer
with indignation. While the vessel was
in the harbor of Lisbon suspicious boats
were seen approaching on several occa-
sions at night, but the care
full outlook on the vessel kept
them at bay. While the Pinto
was at Toulon party of men attempted
to join the crew. They looked 80 unlike
sailors that suspicion was aroused and
her commander concluded to reject
them, although in need OF men. Proof
afterwards came to his knowledge that
the men had been engaged to sink the
ship. There is no reason to believe that
the Pinto's running aground at Toulon
was owing to treacherv. Her com
mander was so convinced of this that he
sent a report to that effect to Paris.
The Errazuriz is already safe at sea and
the Pinto will soon be in position to fol-
low, and it is expected their arrival will
put an end to the revolution.

A Pacific Mail steamship Seized by the
Salvador Authorities.
SAN SALVADOR, August 10.-The Pa
cific Mail steamship City of Panama,
Captain White, the fastest of the Pana-
ma feet, has been seized by the author
tiles of La Libertad because the vessel
had left La Union without a permit
from the officers of that port. The
states of Guatemala, Nicaragua and San
Salvador passed laws making it illegal
to employ natives to load steamers at
night. 1t is stated that this legislation
was caused by the fact that the people
were incensed at the rates charged by
the company, which were deemed ex-
eessive. The company has been loading
its vessels day and night, so as to make
quicker time to meet the terms of the
subsidy for carrying the mails. 1t is
said Captain White, in his desire to
maintain his time schedule, left La
Union without permit, as the author
tiles insisted on lot of goods then on
the dock being shipped, and this would
have delayed him considerably. The
United States steamship Ranger is in
these waters, and it is expected that
her commander will assist in adjusting
the difficulty.

we have already reached the end of good

Great Britain is undou btedly due to the
operations of the Mckinley law in the

the act would eventually prove a mis-
fortune to the United States, but its i'm
