ASSAULT ON THE AUDIT ACT

The Advertiser, with its custom
ary perversity of Judgment, selects
for its editorial approval and appro-
baton that clause in the proposed
amendment to the Audit Act, which
takes away the independence and
impartiality of Judgment and action
of the Auditor-General by making his
salary depend on the caprices of a
temporary majority in the Legisla-
ture or his own ability to logroll or
give luaus. That the Legislature has
power to break the implied contract
with the present occupant of the
Office made by his appointment in
the terms of the present law-that
his salary should not be diminished
during his continuance in otfice-we
do not for one moment believe, and
we feel confident that any court of
justice will uphold this opinion. Mr..
6. j. Ross, the present Auditor
General, has fearlessly Y and impair
italy made his Office of great value
to the Government and people of
the country by preventing every
thing which savored of iliegality OF
jobbery in the expenditure of Gov,
ernment finances without regard tc
party or Ministerial personnel.

A Defaulter Arrives.

Joseph B. Cook, the defaulting
clerk of the San Francisco Police
Court, arrived in Honolulu by the
barkentine S. N. Castle to-day. EN-
bezzlement is not in the crimes of
the extradition treaty, although John
w. Mccarthy was surrendered by
the Hawaiian authorities, as an act
of friendship, on requisition from
the Governor of California a few
years ago. No requisition has yet
been received by the authorities
from the Governor for the arrest
and surrender of Cook.

Troops Can't Be Sent Unless Called
for by Gov. Pattison.
WASHINGTON, July 6-Presdent Har-
rison has received frequent press bulletins
during the day over the white house wires
from Pittsburg about the riot. He feels
considerable interest in the state Of affairs,
and it is said is seriously concerned at the
grave turn which the situation has assumed.
Up to the time of leaving this afternoon he
had not been officially advised Of the riot by
any of the state authorities
Gen. Schofeld said this afternoon that no
appeal had been made to the military au-
Ghorities to aid in suppressing the riot and
he did not think it would be necessary. He
said the state militia Of Pennsylvania was
a most efficient organization and that
st would be an easy matter 10
concentrate at least 5000 thoroughly
reliable and well disciplined state troops at
fittsburg or any other given point at short
notice. He said that the government could
not interfere in the matter unless the
governor of the state should inform the
President that the case was beyond the
control of the state and municipal author
titles.
Unexplained that such a case arose during
the Pennsylvania railroad riots in 1877,
when the state militia was unable alone to
cope with the rioters and it thus became
necessary to invoke the aid Of the federal
troops but the state militia are now vastly
better than IN 1877.

A NOVEL EQUINE FIGHT.

One Rorse Chews OFF Much of the
Tongue of Another.
From the PHILADELPHIA Press
One OF the most peculiar veterinary cases
which probably has ever occurred, happened
yesterday in Manayunk. 1t was due TO the
bad temper OF handsome sorrel horse
belonging to George G. Bowker. This
animal was stabbed with another one, the
property Of F. Reichert, of No. 4347 Main
street, and has never shown any vicious
disposition,
Yesterday Bowker's horse was fed little
sooner than Reiohert's, and the latter began
to reach over and lick the other horse
manger. This seemed to enrage Bowker's
animal, for he suddenly seized the other
ones tongue. aud savagely biting it, tore
of about three inches of IT. at the same
time keeping hold of it and pulling at it
with bull dog tenacity.
Whom he was finally driven off the un-
fortunate victims tongue was found to be
so torn at the roots as to defy the skill of
the veterinary surgeon who was called in
and who said that nothing could be done,
but that the animal would have to be
killed. The horse cannot eat, and it is
probable that the wound has been poisoned
in the combat, so that blood-polsoning
might eusue, even if il were possible to
treat the wounded mouth.
The doctor said that no case Of a like
kind had ever come before him, and that
il was almost certainly q new case In the
annals Of veterinary practice. The temper
Of the attacking horse has always hitherto
been of the best, and his sudden outburst is
a great surprise to his owner.
