THE BALr1MoRE SCANDAL.

Attorney General Miller Testifies Before
the Civil Service Committee.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-Attorney-Gen-
eral Miller, before the house committee
on civil service reform, today, said he
had no knowledge of the removal of two
employees in the msrshal's office in
Baltimore, mentioned IN Commissioner
Roosevelt's report. He had been re-
quested within a very few days past for
copy of the reports sent him. II
his attention had been called to
the case before, and he was satisfied the
men were guilty of willful.violation of the
law, he should have directed their pros
ecution. Soon after the investigation
in Baltimore the marshal had written
that nothing had developed against his
officers that would demand further in
vestigation. Witness said he could not
be expected to be personally cognizant
OF all violations. The district attorneys
called upon him only when they felt
need of advisory direction.

KIDNAPPED WITNESSES,
Jones and Walker Confess the Secret of
Their Escape.

Jones and Walker Confess the Secret of
Their Escape.
CHADRoN, Neb., May 9.-Jones and
Walker, the kidnapped witnesses against
the Wyoming cattlemen for killing
Champion and Ray, have made a con-
fession of their escape. They say that
twelve cattlemen at Douglas, at the
points of revolvers, compelled them to
mount horses in the middle of the
night, and, in company with Witte,
agent of the cattlemen, to ride
for Grand Island, Neb., where they were
promised good horses and 5000 each.
From there they were to be taken to
New Mexico or Arizona. Witte cut the
telegraph wires to prevent pursuit. They
were arrested at Chadron, and will
probably be returned to Wyoming
though an effort will be made to release
them on writs of habeas corpus.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-In the senate
today, Frye, from the committee on
commerce, reported the house bill to
encourage American shipbuilding. He
said the report was unanimous, and he
was instructed to move its immediate
consideration. Agreed to.
After the bill was read in full, Frye
stated that although it was general in
its provisions, two ships only were to
be admitted to American register; were
to be excluded from coastwise trade,
and might be used by the government
{by charter or purchase) in case of war.
That, he said. was the full extent of the
bill. The ships to be admitted were the
City Of New York and the City of Paris
of the Inman line.
Vest, member of the committee on
commerce, supported the bill, although
it lacked good deal of meeting his con-
victions on the question of free ship
ping The steamships would not re-
ceive large subsidies under the postal
subsidy bill, he said.
Mills expressed the opinion that the
ships would be entitled to eubsidv.
ion, because the subsidy bill applied
only to American-built chips.
Sherman said the bill would confer
upon the owners of the ships the right
to make contracts under the postal sub
sidy LAVE
Vest remarked that if that construc-
tion we're put upon the bill it would
be the repeal, by implication, of the
postal subsidy bill, which absolutely re-
quired American-built ships.
Mills moved to amend the bill by
striking out the clause which would en-
title the two ships TO contract under the
postal subsidy. g
The amendment was rejected without
division.
The bill was then passed as it came
from the house-yeas Al nays 10-as
follows:
Yeas-Allen, Allison, Barbour, Brice,
Butler, Call, Cameron, Cockren, Coke,

their interest in the Cheyenne and
Arrapahoe reservation, was taken up as
unfinished business. After debate, the
resolution was agreed to-yeas, 43 nays,

CHICAGO, May 9.-Several hundred
delegates to the eighth annual conven-
ton of the National Editorial associa-
ton, which convenes in San Francisco,
May oath, were in Chicago to-day. The
bulk OF the delegates representing the
eastern, central and northern states,
reached the city last night. This after
noon the visitors, on invitation of the
local directory, visited the worlds
fair grounds, and the Columbian exposi-
ton thereby gained many influential
friends. The president of the association,
w. S. Cappeler, of Mansfield, Ohio,
reached the city several days ago and is
now on his way tothe coast. The states
represented here this morning were
Illinois, Indiana, North Dakota, Iowa,
Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, all of New
England, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Delaware and Nebraska. Pennsylvania
sends the largest delegation OF any
state.
This afternoon two sections OF the
special train left for Kansas City, where
the party will be joined by the delegates
from the south, who start from st.
Louis. Wednesday the editors reach
Colorado Springs, where two days will
be spent, and where the delegates will
attend the dedication exercises of the
Childs-Drexel home for union printers.
From there they will visit Albuquerque,
Barstow, San Bernardino, San Diego,
Riverside and will spend Monday and
Tuesday next at Los Angeles.
The party leaves Los Angeles Wednes-
day May 18th, to visit Fresno. Stock
ton, Sacramento, Santa Rosa, San Jose
and Monterey, where they remain over

China Will Take No Hasty Action-The
Presidents Apology.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-At the Chinese
legation it was said this afternoon that
the Chinese minister would take no
further steps with regard to the recent
action of this government until he re-
ceived instructions from the Chinese
government. There is no prospect OF
hasty action in the matter. 1t is not
likely that the home government will be
heard from for several days.
New York, May AT the weekly
conference of Methodist ministers Rev.
DIR. Baldwin read letter from Presi-
dent Harrison in answer to protest
sent the president with regard to the
Chinese exclusion bill. The president
said the bill as signed is compromise
between the house and senate bills, and
is as lenient as could be made. The
president deprecated the method OF
smuggling Chinese into this country,
and said the certificates would be BEN
eft to the Chinese to assist them in es-
tablishing their rights in this country.

A RIGID QUARANTINE.

The Union Pacific Heavy Loser In
Cattle Transportation Traffic.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., May Ex-Governor
Barber, after hearing railway people
and several Wyoming cattlemen, re-
fuses to alter mis- quarantine proclama-
tion forbidding the unloading of Texas
steers at Orin junction. The regulation
prevents the trailing Of 100000 head Of
grassers across the state. The dozen
Union Pacific men here trying to effect
compromise left very much dieap-
pointed. Unless low joint rate for de-
livery at Brennan, s. D., can be made
the Union Pacific will suffer heavy
loss in traffic.
At the head OF the Union Pacific dele
CATION was General Manager Dickinson,
flanked by w. A. Duel, general superin-
tendent OF the gulf division. Among
others were General Freight Agent
Monroe, Assistant General Freight
Agent Wild, Superintendent Touhey Of
Denver and the assistant superintendent
at North Platte. The entire party vis-
tied the imprisoned stockmen at Fort
Russell, before calling on the governor
in relation to his proclamation prohibit
ing southern cattle from being driven
across the state to adjoining states.
Last year cattle were consigned to
Grin Junction, on the Union Pacific,
then transferred by the Northwestern
to the Black Hills. AS consequence
they were unloaded on the ranges of
several big companies, who threatened
to withdraw their business from the
Northwestern road in the event this was
continued during the present season.
This probably explains why the North
western declined to make any through
rates. Local rates are demanded from
Orin Junction to the place of destina-
tion. As cattle consigned to Montana
could not, under the proclamation, be
unloaded for trailing at Orin, business
has been practically at stand-still.

QUINCY, Mass, May 9.-The Manu-

urday, by the manufacturers, affecting
