The Public DcSt statement.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 1.-The
statement &c the public debt giving the
transactions of the treasury in the
month of March issued this afternoon,
shows a net decrease In the debt Of
81, 957, 179. OF this, S453,5 is the
amount of the reduction OF the bonded
indebtedness of the government, and
81, SOP, GAO is the increase of cash in the
treasury during the month. The In
terest bearing debt showed no change;
debt on which interest has ceased since
maturity decreased SIS, 715; and the
debt bearing no interest S419,s1S. The
aggregate interest and non interest
bearing debt March 81, was 1862, 3Ss,
2l9; on February 2S it was 1903, 2s1,-
1852.
Secretary Carlisle will change the
form of the debt statement before May
1st. The changes will be of radical
character and will simplify the state
ment.
u. S. Treasurer Nebeker will take
charge Of the New York sub-treasury,
on Monday, relieving sub-treasurer
Roberts, whose commission as sub
TREASURER at New York expires to-day.
Accompanying Mr.. Nebeker will be
eight treasury experts, who will remain
with him at the sub-tressury for a
month or more until the transfer OF
money in the sub-treasury is effected.
Fifteen or twenty other treasury OFF,
cials will go to New York to assist in
counting the money and making the
transfer. which, il is thought, will take
q month to complete.

Rodices do not get much attention In
the way of fit now. 1t is all effect, and
the effect is so often obtained by run
ming wide revers or ruffles from low on
the shoulders to q point 81 the waist
back and front, and filling In the space
between with loose chemisette effect,
that OF fit there is practically none.
These rufIles or revers are so wide that
only little of the bodice proper shows
st the sides. Another style gives q
double pair Of epaulettes at the shout
ders. Epaulette is hardly the name. for
they are more like capes, and they
spread so that the under and wider ones
actually reach out either side till the
wearer is as broad across the shoulder
line as as the foot Of her skirts. When
skirts are FIVE and half yards around,
this means something. A bodice belt is
worn that reaches from the waist line TO
beneath the arms. All the rest OF the
bodice is just a chemisette effect from
the collar down to where 1t tucks into
the belt. Whether the dress has really
bodice that can be taken off and hung
up is hard TO determine from casual
look. One can imagine that the sleeve
capes and the chemisette are one, and
that the belt makes all the rest Of IL.
Ny picture shows a negile waist,
which is tight fitting only in the back.

Cannot Act as Correspoudents

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 1.-The
new regulations for the government of
the navy provides that naval officers
shall not act as correspondents for
newspapers. This is not the language
or the provision in question, but it is
the effect. The practice of writing for
the press has grown in the navy, until
recently several officers were regularly
employed by newspapers to keep them
informed Of current events in the SER
vice. Under this system information
of important naval movements have
been accessible to some newspapers to
the exclusion Of others. 1t is said to be
the intention OF Secretary Herbert to
correct this discrimination.

The meanest Of all robbers is the
lepalized robber. He displays neither
courage nor ingenuity, but be is shrewd
enough to keep within the law and en-
10Y his Hlehings, while other and better
men 20 to the penitentiary for crimes
less fagrant.
The allowances" made by Ex-Secre-
tary Of State FOSTER for the officials
connected with the Boring Sea Com
mission properly come under the head
of legalized robbery. Investigation
discloses the fact that Major HALFoRD,
recently private secretary to President
HARRISON, receives, In addition to his
pay as a major and paymaster in the
army, the sum Of SIS per day. Mr.. j..
STANLEY Brown, who was GARFTLD's
private secretary, now an employe Of
~ Treasury Department drawing his
regular salary, also gets SIS per day in
connection with the Boring Sea Com
mission. Special Agent WILLIAMS Of
the Treasury Department is allowed the
same amount, and there are other Off
Gals connected with the commission for
whom very generous allowances have
been made. There is nothing techni7
cally wrong I'm all this. II is clearly
within the law, and yet it is one Of
the most glazing outrages ever perpe-
trated upon the people. The law is
plain In forbidding any person to draw
Two salaries from the government, but
By grouping these stealings under the
head Of allowances for expenses" con-
nected with the Boring Sea Commission,
the Republican statesmen we're enabled
10 perpetrate this raid upon the treas
ury with impunity, and the great Amer
lean people will have TO stand It.
How many similar cases there have
been under the late administration,
time and the rigid investigation now
going on at Washington may disclose.

THE treaty recently ratified between
the United States and Russia has been
severely criticised by the American
press, but it appears from recent infor-
nation from Washington that the docu-
ment is not Objectionable in all respects
as charged. The right Of asylum for
those OF the Cars subjects who may
seek safety in this country is in no way
abridged, and the term political crimes
tsso Iimited By amendment Of the Senate
that it takes out Of that category at
tempts upon the life OF the Car or any
member Of his family. Whether the
treaty as a whole is acceptable to the
American people will DC known only
when it may suit the august Senate to
remove the obligation Of secrecy.
Meanwhile. the sovereign" people
await with interest the pleasure Of their
servants.

CONSULAR FFrs

The consular fees collected by the
United States consuls abroad who hold
salaried positions are turned into the
ATreasury. Yet there are certain fees
hich are turned into the pockets Of
G0nsuls, and thus give value to
that are otherwise Of insignif-
pecuniary Importance. Mr.. CHAs.
HEATH, in a communication to the New
York Evening Post, explains as follows
how this is:
oThe Mckinley administrative bill abOl-
ished the shippers oath 10 invoice, su0sti-
tuting q simple declaration. NOtwith-
standing this, shippers OF merchandise in
England are still compelled 90 90 before
D English notaries and make their declara-
lions in addition 70 paying the consular fee
for the same service. The reason or this is
that our consuls in England are interested
in and receive q portion of the double fee
exaCted from shippers.
il is easy to see how very perniciOus
this system Of paying our Consular rep
resentatives NAV become, when the
Consul Is not overly scrupUlous. There
Is a constant temptation to Overstep the
bounds Of judicial fairness, aud thus
reflect upon the national honor. With
a properly stipulated salary as In the
case OF ministers, graded in proportion
70 population, or business transacted,
OF Importance Of the post, or for that
matter, all combined, there would be
lar less likelihood of any crooked
work. In short the business connected
with the position would be executed
upon the highest plain Of honor and
problty, which is the way it should be
either at home or abroad.
The Washington Post in commenting
upon the fee system takes this excel
lent view Of It:
Ii is not difficult 70 understand why the
great cOnsulships at London and Liverpool
are esteemed such bOnanzas. 1t is no more
than right that these positions should be
well salaried, as the theory is that they de-
mand a high order OF business capacity for
the proper discharge o. their duties, but it
IS Questionable whether il were not the
wiser plan for great government like ours
20 pay its consular representatives some
fixed compensation, adequate 70 the service
performed, instead Of permitting them 70
exact their reward in fees out Of tue for
clgn shipper.

No Favors TO the United states.

OTTAWA, ONT, April 1.-The Domin-
ion government has decided not to ask
Parliament TO ratify the reciprocity
treaty recently negotiated with France.
George Z. Foster. minister Of finance,
communicated this announcement to
Parliament yesterday. One Of the
chief points which the government had
20 consider was In reference 10 the most
favored nation clause. No discourtesy
has been shown by Canada TO France.
The real reason the treaty would not be
ratified was that the favored nation
clause would give tho United States
corresponding advantage in the Cana
dian markets.

ThaIo,don MONEY NIarket.

LONDON, April 2.-Discount rates were
easy during last week at l1{c for three
months, and 12c for short. Renewed ease
is expected. The usual demands al quar-
ter day stock exchange payments and holt
day requirements, brought about brisk

tanned assistance from the bank Of Eng
land to the extent of $1,000, 600. All for
eign gold demands are still met by arrivals
in the open markets, while fair amount

The silver market advanced throughout
the week, the improvement being chiefly
due 10 a steady demand for India. The
heavy curtailment in remittances eastward
in the last few weeks, has strengthened the

10 the PreSlQent:
Idesire most respectfully to state that
some time ago I had thought OF being
an applicant for the position Of United
States Attorney for West Virginia, but
In view OF the fierce fight being waged
by the Republican party of that State,
against Hon. c. G. Watts, for that posi-
ton, and recalling that his early re-
moval while in the discharge Of his duty,
was demanded and brought about by
West Virginia Republicans, have de-
termined not only not TO allow
my name to be considered in that con-
nection, but to earnestly endorse, as an
act of single justice to him, and as
vindication of the Democracy OF my
State C. c. Watts, Of Charleston, West
Virginia. Mr.. Watts not only gave
great satisfaction to the people OF West
Virginia, and to the bar, especially, by
his courtesy and capacity, but
in his present struggle has
the heart of the West Vir-
ginia Democracy thoroughly aroused
add deeply enlisted in his behalf
His fight is the fight of the party. /, in
common with the rest Of them, sincerely
hope that it may be your pleasure to
reappoint him.
Respectfully,

result Of his brief interview with Presl-
dent Cleveland. He called in company
with Congressman VIM. L. Wilson, who
introduced him to the President, adding
that he was at the head of political

a CARELESS RxPREssMAN
Runs Over Mrs. Russell Harrison anu Her
Little Girl in New York.

New YORK, April Russell B. Har-
rlsOn's wife and child were knocked
down by an express wagon as she was
wheeling in carriage the infant on
Broadway to-day. The reckless driver
turned the corner from Twenty-fourth
street at criminal speed and the ex-
Presidents daughter-in-law had no
time to escape. The lady and child
were escorted to the Gilsey House and
DR.. VIM. Morton was hastily sum
moned. The doctor looked grave when
he learned what had happened, for the
child was patient Of his whom he was
treating for q nervous complaint, the
after effect Of scarlet fever, and though
she was not hurt in body, the shock and
fright had undone in q moment the
treatment of three weeks. IL was by
the rareSt good fortune that the heavy
hand Of bereavement was not again
laid on ex-Presideut Harrison. Toa re-
porter who called late to-day, the clerk
of the hotel said that no one appeared
to be the worse for the sake-up. Mrs.
Harrison had been about as usual, ap-
parently in good health.
