OF Jsilor Psseell's discharge BY the city

mayor Of M. Poroslrs alleged short com-
ings and his honor told him to watch him
and II he found he was taking msney from

There was eiso an erros In the report OF
Mr.. Peroelfs testimony. That gentleman
testified. in snswsr to question By Com

to connect him with that Job. and he OK
peoted to prove bis correction.
Az the investigation Yesterday Marshal

A BENEFIT FOR THE POOR.

An Attraction Suggested That Would
Raise = Large Fund.
To The Independent.
A labor paper that was sent TO me the
other day states that 1000 men are out of
employment in Helena and its immediate
vicinity. That il a startling statement,
and it may be exaggerated, but I do know
of my own knowledge that there are scores
Of families here without means, without
food. without fuel. and there is going to be
much suffering unless funds are speedily
raised.
Now to the Point. Whv cannot that
great trsRsdian. Daniel Dandmann, ana
that bright and charming actress, Miss
Beaudet. be induced to offer their services
in the cause of humanity at grand beno-
flt at the opera house? They could repeat
Romeo and Juliet" or some other popular
plny from their extensive repertoire. WITH
out much rehearsal or effort, and believe
il they were asked they would do il. for
both their hearts are quick to respond to
the call of humanity.
think there would be no difficulty In
securing other actors for the cast. There
are several hero and in Butte. John
Mcguire, ii "Romeo and Juliet were es-
saysd, would admirably fill tho role Of
Friar Laurence. and ! know his big Irish
heart would respond to the appeal Of
mercy.
such . benefit should yield not less than
$1,000. By al! means. Mr.. Editor. seek to
bring it about. c. D. v.

ALL OVER ALTGELD's PICTURE.

Tho Germania Club OF Chicago Is Shat
tered into smithereens.
CHICAGO. Dec. l0.-A great disturbance
has been created In tho Germania club. tho
leading German American social orRanixa-
tion of Chicago. on account of the action OF
the directors In refusing to accept and hang
on the club house walls an oil portrait Of
Gov. Altgeld, presented by Philip Hsnriei,
a club member. The governors action in
the anarchist cases WAS given as tho reason
for the refusal. This proceeding was in
great measure influenced by DR.. Emil
Richter. German imperial Worlds fair
commissioner. and Carl Bsenz. the German
consul; both of whom declared they would
not attend last nights banquet of the Ger
mania club if AltReld's pictu,e was re-
oeived. Al the banquet the club rescinded
the directors action regarding the govern
or's portrait Neither Richter nor Baenz
appeared at the banquet and Gov. AltRsld
sent a letter of regret. 1t WAS expected
that 300 people would attend the banquet
but only $50 appeared. It is said many
leading members Of the club have Glready
resigned on account of this difficulty and
that muny other designations will follow.

Tho People Were With tho Police In Pu,

Tho People Were With tho Police In Put
ting Down the Reds.
LONDON, Dec. 10.-The police force in
Trafalgar square to-day was larger than
usual. in view Of a rumor that the anarch-
1865 intended to hold another meeting, but
whether frightened by the police demon
stration or owing to the excitement created
by the Paris bomb throwing only a few
persons appeared. The police extended =
Gordon around Nelson's monu mont, and %
soon as Anarchist Nichols arrived the
mob became menRcina and hooted him.
Nichols fled. and tho polios with the ut
most difficulty protected him from the vio-
lence of tho mob. Four Italian anarchists
shortly afterwards made a movement as if
to hold a meeting in the square, but wero
obliged to run away owing to the hostility
Of the crowd. There was great excitement
for q moment when the police shouted
'Stop!' to a man carrying a mysterious
looking bundle. The man fed, followed
by part of tho crowd. but escaped. The
square was cleared At 4:3o 2. m. No trouble
of q serious nature occurred.

The management of the Midwinter fair
at San Francisco have sent Mr.. CraiRis
Sharp, Jr., oonmissioner at large for the
Pacific coast to Montana to arrange for a

states that have not yet agreed to join.
He suggests that state commission be ap-
pointed to look after the subject, and as
the mineral exhibit At Chicago is still boxed
up il could easily be shipped to San Fran
cisco. Mr.. Sharp has intervied the state
officers and number OF prominent oiti-
zens ana nndS that there 10 desire that
Montana should be represented at the Mid
winter fair. He Gays the fair is to open

The New Tariff Bill May Then Be
Taken Up by the
House
Republican Members to Filibuster
Against Admission Of Utah
to Statehood.
4 Party Advantage Sought by Opposing
tho Election Laws Rspssi-Ths
Civil Service Com m ission.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-Ths tariff bill
will not come mp In the house before . week
from Tomorrow at the earliest. The ma-
joSity report will be filed Wednesday. but
IL will be some days later bsfo.e the Eepub-
Utah admission bill will come mp dnring
the morning hour tomorrow. The rspub-
licans will probably continue flibustering
and this will return the bill to ito placs
back on tho calendar. Kilgors. of Texas
expects before Saturday night that the bill
will have been passed BY the houss and sent
to tho senate. II II NOT impossible Hawaiian
matters may oome up In the house before
the end Of the week. II II not thought the
democrats will resist consideration of the
resolutions Tuesday. Hills bill for the re-
peal OF the federal election laws will be
vigorously fought in the senate by the re.
publicans. who don't expect to prevent its
final passage, but hops to gain
party advantage by putting the views
on record. Hoar will endcsvor to send the
bill TO the committee on elections. and
should he suocesd final action will be con-
siderably postponed. Morrill, IL expected
to make : set speech this week on the por-
tions Of tho presidents message relating ia
thc tariff and internal revsnu.. The
chances are the Hawaiian question will
some up IN the senate il connection with
the presidsnts special message. A large
number Of democratic senators stand ready
to defend Cleveland's policy.
Tho majority report Of the civil service
commission is q document of about. Il. OOC
words. The most interesting portion ID
that bearing on tho extension of the olassi-
fed service to free delivery postofiicos. the
aubject on which Commissioner Johnston
dissented and was accordingly removed
by tho president some time ago.
The report condemns the salary limit
to the classified service In the Gus.
tom houses and recommends classification
by grade. In support o! this view the re.
suits of classification In the railway mail
kerviee are cited. The report says in the
unolnssifed service. taken as whole, the
governmental methods of the United States
are 30 utterly indsfenaible from q stand
