Senator Gallagher'S Bill,

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Gal
finger says he will press the considera-
ton OF his bill for the dismissal Of all
aliens in government employ. There
has been an unwritten law in some of
the departments for many years forbid
ding the employment of aliens. A num-
Der of men who have received appoint
ments to positions in the treasury de-
partment and who come to Washington
to take them have been obliged to re-
turn to their homes because they learned
on their arrival that they were not citi-
zens of the United States. A recent
case was that Of a man of Pennsylvania
appointed to a position Of skilled labor
in the treasury department. He had
given up a good position to come to
Washington, but under Secretary Eos.
ter's rule the department was obliged to
refuse to appoint him, although he had
taken out his first papers.

Boiler Inspector Clark Refuses to Grant
Licenses to Aliens.
ST. PAUL, Dec. ia precedent of
unusual Importance has been estab-
lished by Boiler Inspector Clark. The
case. is n in which a Saltwater engi-
neer seeks a license, and in the examine
ton the fact was developed that the
applicant was not a citizen of the United
States. Inspector Clark examined the
man and found him a cahable engineer,
but declined to issue a license until the
applicant had taken ouJ naturalization
papers. Accordingly, the necessary
papers were drawn up and signed and
the license was issued. Mr.. Clark says
there is nothing, apparently, in the stat
utes to govern such action, but he
thinks it but fair to American skilled
labor that only American citizens
should receive license from an Ameri-
can official to do business in America.

The Navy Depal tmrnt Wants to De.
clare War Against Chill
Immediately.
They Say the Chilians Are Delaying
Their Answer to the
United States
Simply TO Gam Time tor the Com
plet:Nn OF Il Big War
Ship.
In Il Warlike Mood,

NEW YORK, Dec. ia special from
Washington to The Herald says the
navy department is in a warlike mood.
It was stated about the department that
the Chilians are delaying their answer
to our demand for information concern
ing the Valparaiso incident for the pur-
pose of gaining time, S o that their new
war vessel, the Captain Pratt, which
will be the most formidable of their
fleet, is completed. The situation thus
outlined was discussed with eagerness,
and the opinion was freely advanced
that President Harrison would, in all
likelihood take measures to checkmate
Chill i'll this matter by sending a special
message to congress within the next two
weeks, reciting the fact that an explain
alton has been sought Of Chill without
avail, and proclaiming the necessity of
informing Chill that this country will
resort to extreme measures if the desired
response is further delayed beyond a
reasonable and specified time.
The wisdom of this course, it is ar
gued, would be apparent. The Captain
Pratt is now building in France, and
cannot be finished in less than two
months or more. In the meantime,
should Harrison and congress cause a
declaration of war by the United States
against Chill, it would prevent France
from delivering the vessel to Chill, and
would ave New York and our other
Atlantic cities from danger of lombard
ment from that source.

great mob of tax payers and others had
rushed into the county treasurer's office
to pay their taxes and avoid the penalty.
The bills were delayed until Thursday
and 1t was impossible to take in all
the money presented. One man put
a revolver under the nose of the
receiving clerk and said he would shoot
if the money wa not accepted and re
ceipted for ut once. The great crowd on
the outside grew riotous and hurled
stones through the windows. One man
was knocked insensible and two women

alarm was sounded and a large body of
police arrived and by a vigorous action
cleared the streets and drove off the

Fields Insanity Doubted,

New YORK, Dec. 1.-THE World. in
an article in which it alluded to Edward
NJ. Field as Napoleon Of Finance ii, and
apparently fit to rank with Ward and
Ives, says that during the past year he
has been intrusted with over S 1000, 600
in money, bonds and stocks, and that
the owners thereof do not know what
has become of their property. The facts.
The World says, have been gathered
from interviews had with the partners
of Field with Wall street brokers, and
with some of his victims. The amount
is made up as follows: Cash and secu-
rites from Weichers and his relatives,
1887, 900: from Woerishoeffer & Co.,
cash from corn sales, 500, 900; from
Peter Cassidy, for 1900 shares
of North American, which were
never delivered, $500, 900; from two
widows in securities which they
gave to him as their agents SO he could
collect their dividends, $14,O 900; from a
tailor for investment. $4,000, and
finally $500, 900, which he raised from
rehypothecation of Union Pacific bonds,
making a total Of 81 $40, 900. The
World also says that the day following
the failure the Field family sent for DR..
Allen McLane Hamilton, the expert on
insanity to examine young Field. He
had acted strangely about the house
and they had become alarmed. DR.
Choate, who conducts a private san
tarium, was at the house Wien DR..
Hamilton arrived, and together they
made the examination. It was most
thorough according to all accounts
They were asked later to fill out a certi
cate preliminary to his commitment tt
an asylum. The two experts declined
and left the house. A day later two
other physicians were called and made
an examination. They filled the Ger
tiicate on which Jude McAdam com
mitted Field to the madhouse.

Three Months in a HayStack.

ELKroN, Md, Dec. 21.-Some time
last summe William Kyle, a farmer
residing near Fair Hill. this county,
missed one Of his largest hogs. weighing
$50 pounds. After searching for it for
some time he gave it up as lost. A few
days ago he cut the end of the straw
stack and was surprised to see the hog
come forth alive, but somewhat thinner.
1t is supposed the straw had slipped
down on it, and in it's efforts to get out
it had worked it's way into the stack.
Upon examination it was found that the
hog had eaten it's way for a good length
in an upward direction. The actual time
of it's imprisonment was three months
and four days.

FOUGHT TO A FINISH.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19.-Joe Choyn-
ski, of San Francisco, and Billy Woods,
OF Denver, met at the Pacific club in a
fight to a finish for a purse of $4,000.
Mike Sullivan acted as referee. The
betting was strongly in favor of Choyn-
ski, at odds of about 3 to 1. Wood was
heavier than the Californian, but the
confidence in the latter's skill, and he
being the favorite, never let the pools
sell better than 10 to 4. The building
was jammed when the contestants en-
tered the ring at 9:05. Woods was
knocked out in the thirty-fourth round,
having received the worst of the fight
from the beginning.

To Connect the Americas

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. The executive
committee of the nter-continental rail
road has been in session for several days
in this city, engaged in reviewing re-
ports received from engineers, officers
and others concerning the project.
There are three surveying parties in the
field. The first surveying corps, which
is under the leadership of Captain
Macomb, of the Fourth United States
artillery, has surveyed three lines
through Guatemala from the Mexican
boundary to Guatemala city. The most
popular route runs through the coffee
country, the second follows the coast
and the third is across the highlands in
the interior. William F. Skunk has
charge of the second party. which
left Quito, in Ecuador, last June
to survey northward. They had
reached the City of Pappegan
: at the head of the Cauco river when last
heard from, and are working down the
river toward Panama. The third party
started southwark from Quito last fall,

climate, and he was obliged to return to
the United States. leaving Mr.. Kelly in
charge. The corps have surveyed a dis
lance of over $50 miles, reaching the
boundary of Peru. They will stretch
their chains along the Maranon river to
Zero De Paste, the terminus Of the New
Orla railroad, and expect to complete
their work in eighteen months. Next
summer another corps will be organized
~to'survey a line through Bolivia to form
a connection with the new Brazilian
: line, leading to Rio. The engineers re-
port that their work has not proven
nearly SO difficult as was expected. The
country was said to be practically
impossible for a railroad, hut nc
unsurmountable difficulties have been
encountered. The inhabitants are re.
celvlng surveyors warmly all along thei1
routes. Banquets and speechmaking are
almost daily incidents of the work. AT
many places the forerunners of the rail.
roac nave been welcomed by bands and
military displays. The press Of South
America is practically unanimous in its
support of the project. At a banquet
given to North Americans at Quito was
displayed for a center piece on the table
a mammoth figure in butter of the
United States teaching nations of South
America.

Preparations for War,

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-A Herald Wash
ington special says: Active preparations
for war still continue in the navy
department. Steps have now been taken
to secure the most available vessels in
the merchant marine for possible service
in Gillian waters. Arrangements have
been made in New York and San Fran
cisco to charter, if necessary, from thirty
to fifty vessels to be used as transports
and GOLFERS. Preparations, so far as tho
regular naval vessels We're concerned,
having been made as complete as posi-
BILE, the bureau of naval intelligence,
acting under instructions, has prepared
a list of merchant vessels available in
case war is declared. An offer from a
New York ship owner Of a score or
more of small vessels to carry coal. has
met with thanks from the department,
and a request that he hold his vessels so
as to have them
Ready on Twenty-four Hours Notice
has been made. Naval officers are also
looking about New York for vessels to
be used in the torpedo service. 1t has
been reported by them that the most
available craft for this service are the
fast private yachts of the metropolis. 1t is
urged that these yachts can be very
quickly converted into torpedo boats
! and cruisers and the belief is expressed
that they will prove fully as effective as
the torpedo craft of the CHILEAN navy.
According to naval authorities our
weakest point O is a lack of torpe-
does. Orders hurrying up the two firms
who have contracts to furnish tOrpedoes
have recently been issued. The firms
have replied that they are bending every
effort to furnish the torpedoes as rapidly
as the contracts call for them.
Activity in the War Department.
Activity is also displayed in the war
department. Informal consultations
have taken place between army and
navy officials as to the cooperation OF
the two forces in event Of trouble. 1t
has been represented that the army will
be able to furnish on short notice $4,000
men for transportation. either from San
Francisco or Galveston. The naval
officials say that fully that number Of
men will be required. In spite of ex'
IRENE measures taken by the army and
navy departments the belief that there
will be war in Chill grows less and LEST
here. The general belief is that Chill
will yield to the demands Of the United
States eventually.
