EDISON LOOKS FOR CHOLERA.
DR.. Edison expressed himself as strong IN
the belief that cholera will probably come
TO these shores In the spring. He has studied
the subject thoroughly and finds strong
reason TO think 'there is a big fight In store
against the dread disease. The doctor also
expressed himself as being Of the opinion
that the enactment of the proposed law
which would restrict immigration for one
year beginning next spring would be a
most potent factor in the fight to keep
cholera from the shores of America.

THE SUMMONS EXPLAINED.
SET FIRE TO a STORE.
Lighted Candles Placed Among Waste
Saturated With OIL.

Lighted Candies Placed Among Waste
Saturated With OIL.
CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 30.-At 2 o'clock
this morning fire was discovered in a
grocery store on Elm street kept by Mrs.
Solomon Levi. The fire departments after
much difficulty succeeded in taking from
the building sixty people who were sleep
ing when the fire was discovered. The fire
was peculiar and dangerous one. After
the flames had been extinguished an exami-
nation was made and developments of a
startling character were brought to light.
Early last evening Mrs. Levi left home to
attend a ball, leaving her daughter
in charge OF the store. The lady left
the building at 9 o'clock after
having made every preparation for the
burning Of the building. Cotton waste
saturated with coal oil was placed in the
drawers and other places about the store,
and In each pile Of waste was lighted
candle 80 placed and timed that the flame
would reach the oil-saturated waste about 2
O'Clock. That far the plan was successful
and only the vigilance Of the police officers
in discovering the fire saved the building
and the inhabitants. The daughter cannot
be found but Mrs. Levi has been arrested.
She is. however, too hysterical to make a
statement, though what she has said con-
firms these statements.

BERLIN, Nov. 30.-The budget was read
for the first time in the Reichstag to-day

proposed provision for the increased mili-
tsry expenses, which would be required by
the army bill.
Herr Riohter's speech was the sensation

Caprivis attack upon Prince Bismarck.
Herr Richter said Prince Bismarck had
claimed for the chancellor, when he ooou-
pied that Office, the right to differ from
himself, but never had Prince Bismarck
gone SO far in self-contradiotion az
Chancellor Caprivi, who now breeds
Germany would best prove its conscious
strength by rejecting the military bill.

Chancellor Won Caprivi waited some time
before replying 10 Herr Richter's attack
He addressed himself TO Herr Richter's ao-
cusation that he was cultivatinR "bac-
cilli of distrust." He denied that his speech
in 1891 was in conflict with his recent utter
ances and pointed out the distinction be-
tween the cool and careful preparation
for adequate self-defense and the
excessive anxiety of war scare.
The chancellor is said to realize
that he is fighting for his official life. az
evidence accumulates that dissolution and
an appeal TO the country in the present
state Of the public sentiment would prove
fatal to the government demands and to his
further lease of power. He will contest

OFF WITH THEIR HEADS.
TOO MANY GLE KS IN THE Gov
ERNMENT DEPARTMENTS.

Representative Dockery to Push the
Policy of Administrative Reform-Hs
Prepares a Resolution TO be Intro
duced on the Subjeot-Work Delayed
in order That It May Not Give Out.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30-RepresontatIvs
Dockery Of Missouri. one Of the MOST
thoughtful and experienced members OF the
committee on appropriations, thinks that
after tariff reform and pension reform, adj
ministrative reform is the most pressing
question. He Is convinced by the admission
OF department officers in supporting the
estimates before this appropriations COM
mittee. that the number OF employees In the
executive departments ought to be reduced
one-third- BE said tonight that he should
on Monday next introduce a resolution pro-
viding for an investigation of this matter,
with view to appropriate legislation by
the next congress-. He added: For
some time have been coming to
the belief that efficiency as we'll as
economy in the government service
could be promoted by cutting down the
force OF clerks, the superanuated who are
practically civil pensioners, the lazy and
the incompetent, constituting fully one-
third OF the force, by actually holding back
che other two thirds. In many offices work
is nursed and dallied with In order that 10
may not give out Sixth Auditor Coulter
told me that with one-third
less clerks than he now has he
could do the work OF his Office better. You
know what Col. AinswoFth OF the medical
records bureau accomplished by wedding
out his force. All the departments need
wedding out. There is no politics In this. I
am not attacking this administration or
seeking to make places for democrats, nor
am proposing any interference with civil
service reform-indeed this reform of the
civil service is distinctly In the interest OF
OWL service reform.
DoCKERY's REsoLUTIoN.
Representative Dockery OF Missouri, a
member of the committee on appropriate
ttons, Will offer on Monday the following:
Resolved. That a commission consisting of five
nembersleleot 60 the House of Representatives.
OF tne Fifty third congress 10 be appointed by the
speaker OF the House OF Representatives OF tho
Fifty second congress, shall, prior to the first
Monday OF December next, inquire into and
examine the methods OF business and workings
in the executive departments Of the govern
tnent, the time and attention devoted to the
operations thereof by the persons employed
therein, and tho degree of efficiency OF all such
employees, and whether O reduction In the num-
Der or compensation of the persons authorized
to be employed IN said executive departments
can be made without injury TO the public serv-
Ice. Said commission or any subcommittee
thereof shall have power TO send for persons
and papers and may report by bill OF other
wise to the FifSy-thira congress-. an sneces-
sary expenses of said commission shall be paid
out or the appropriation for the miscellaneous
items for the contingent fund of the House OF

NEW MExIoo's ADMISSION.
The Bill Granting Statehood May b.
Passed at This Session.

The Bill Granting Statehood May be
Passed at This Session.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9O-Whatever con-
eluston President Cleveland reaches as to
calling the next congress together in extra
session, it may be stated positively that 1t
will not be determined, as has been re-
ported, by desire TO have New Mexico
and Arizona as states. The democrats be-
heve that they already have a majority in
the Senate in sight, and at the least feel
sure that with the casting vote of Vice
President Stevenson, they will be able to
decide all questions arising in the Senate
with respect either to its organization or
legislation. However desirous they may be
that New Mexico or Arizona should have
the long-deferred recognition to which they
believe them to be entitled they would not
call an extra session IL they could for that
purpose, and they have no idea that Presi-
dent Cleveland viii.
MAY PASS AT THIS SESSION.
IL is not at all improbable that che bill
providing for the admission of New Mexico,
which, with that providing for the admis-
sion of AriZoua, was ordered fsvorably re-
ported. with the aid Of republican votes by
the democrats in the Senate committee on
territories last session, may pass ct the
coming session. Gov. Prince of New
Mexico, republican, is here TO urge
the republican senators and representatives
to les New Mexico In, and is hopeful of sue
cess. He is, however, opposed to the admis-
sion OF Arizona, because he says the Nor
mons, 10, 900 OF whom now reside in Arizona
would pour into it as soon as ID became a
state, with view to its control. This state
ment is, however, combatted by the friends
OF Arizona and it may be that the friction
created by it may prevent the legislation
desired by either state.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 80.-President Har-

graduating themselves that their customary
caution stood them in such good stead when
they were importuned last week by Edward
Lauterbach, W. T. Tisdell and other repre-
sentatives of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company to threaten France on the basis
OF the Monroe doctrine because of the busi-
ness differences between the Panama Rail.
way Company and the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company. The Investigations which
the President and Secretary Of State have
been able to make together with the publi-
cation on the subject in the newspapers
have convinced them, it is understood, that
this matter is rather a private quarrel than
an international controversy.
WON'T BE HANDLED IN A MESSAGE.
Il is said that the President, who at first
intimated that he might at least bring the
matter strikinRly to the attention OF con-
gress, will, as he is at present advised, do
nothing Of the SORT He is said to be CON
WINGED that there is no indication so far in
the matter Of any present intention on the
part OF France TO seize or to colonlze the
lsthmus OF Psname, or to interfere with the
