STEUBENNILLE.

STEI-BENyIILE. January l0-At the last
meeting of Council, held Tuesday evening,
Mayor Brasher nominated Barney Martin,
present foreman of the Phoenix engine COM
many. for Chief Of the Fire Department,
and council refused TO confirm the nomina-
tion and the Fire Committee attempted 10
take the nomination out OF his hands. ana
have a man chosen of their own selection.
He protested vigorously, and asserted his
discrimination TO stand by his right TO make
the nomination. Taking this action as
cue. some of the Mayors friends are exult-
ing Justify over his display OF backbone. j"
Inst about one year ago the same question
was at stake between the Mayor and Coun-
eli with this difference-the applicant for
the position at that time was Democrat,
while Martin, the present applicant, is q
Republican. and different faction of the
Renublican party had control OF the Coun-
ciImanic reins. That would have been a
GOOD time for the Mayor to display his
| backbone and stand up for his preroga-
tiyes of Office Had he done so Democrats
/ in Steuhenville who to-day take no stock
! in his lately asserted backbone would
have had more faith in him and been ready
10 accord the title of Little Giant" In
stead of doing so he allowed the Republican
Fire Committee to usurp his right TO make
the nomination, and the result IS that Re-
publican was chosen for the position. From
1880 to 1891 is only twelve months, and the
memory Of most people is retentive enough
to cover that period.

United States Marshal Furay received
instructions yesterday from the attorney
general at Washington to deliver the nine
Cinnamon, now in custody at Fort Benton,
to tho collector Of the port Of San Fran
cisco for shipment to China. A late decis-
ion of Judge Hanford, in the state of Wash
ington, raised the question whether some
Cinnamon arrested there who came from
Canada. should be returned to that domin-
ion or sent back to China. The exclusion
act provides for their return 'to the coun-
try from whence they came" Judge Han
ford held, under his construction of the
act, that the Cinnamon should be taken to
Canada. 1t was this decision which caused
the marshal, under tho advice of tho
United States attorney, to telegraph the
encouragement for instructions. TIE

and bring the Cinnamon here. Their attor-
neys, I. d. Penny and Newman q Walsh,

womnnkind should wear gowns or frocks to
