documents as worthless He declared that
they were incorrect copies of old pamph-
lets with connected interpretations, badly
spelled, and containing number of eras-

that one letter furnished by Ahlwardt
and purporting to have been written by
NJ Kandero, president of the Roumanian
senate, in relation to the 80 per cent al

named Kilindcro wAS ever the presiding
officer Of the senate Of Roumania.
Notwithstanding these disclosures Ali

declined to withdraw the charges. The
committee delegated DR.. Porterch and
Herr Bebel to confer with Ahlwardt pr-

in anything. Ahlwardt declining to with

that he and Herr Bebcl had vainly tried

A. to Gold kxports.

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-Some doubt is ex-
pressed as to whether there will be any
gold shipped abroad next Tuesday, owing
TO the fact that at current rates of cx.
change IL is difficult TO see profit in such
transactions. Gold exports are not re.
gardcd with any trepidation in view of the
fact that tho local banks hold Sloi. 900. .O00

INDECENT AND IMMORAL.
The Civil Service Commission uses Very
strong Language.


WASHINGTON, dec. lO.-Tho majority
report of the civil service commission dur
ing the present year is q document OF
about 5000 words. The most interesting
portion is that bearing on the extension of
the classified service TO free delivery post
Offices, the subject OH which Cominis-
sioncr Johnston disseuted and was ac-
cordingly removed by the president a
short time ago. The report condemns the
salary limit to classified service in GUS
tom houses and recommends classifica-
tion by grade. In support of this Wow the
satisfactory results of classification in
tho railway mail service is cited.
Tho report says in the unclassifled
service taken as n whole. the govern
mental methods of the United States are
SO utterly indefcnsible from tho stand
point of dcccncy and morality that il is
difficult for man of ordinary intelli-
gencc, who wishes well TO his country. In
discuss the arguments advanced in their
favor with anything like tolerance. The
rcport likens our system TO those en-
ploycd in Morocco and Turkey. Tho num-
ber of persons connected with the civil
service in the United States is about aoo,-
900. The minority report of Commissioners
Johnston opposes the extension of tho
classified service to free delivery pos,of-
fees as ill-advised, unfair and hurtfui Ia

Good Service as Ever.
Butte, Dec. l0.--The new schedule of
the street railway company was started
to-day. Five men were laid of and Mr..
Wharton tied a little bell punch TO him
self and went TO work oil a Missoula gulch
car. Tho change makes the South Butte
cars run around on Broadway a. for
merly, and after 10 a. IN. there is now a 10
minute run to South Butte, as there used
TO be. Two cars will try to give this South
Butte service instead of three. The Mea-
derville cars will also run around OF,
Broadway and will give 40-minutc sery-
leo up to 10 n. M, and a 10-minute service
after that time. The Walkerville line
will have q 30-minute service up to 10 n.
m, aud q 15-miLute service after that.
Neither the South Butte nor Meader-
vile cars will run across Missoula gulch.
but q loop service was inaugurated to-
day, q car running from the gulch to Wyo-
ming street, north to Granite, west on
Granite to Washington and south on
Washington to Park and then west across
tho gulch again. Tho changes will not
materially affect tho service and will savo
some expense. The conductors did not
take In enough to-day to pay wages, but
that was scarcely expected on a stormy
Sunday, and there is little doubt that the
holiday trado will keep tho road running
the rest of the year.

house was destroyed by fro this morning.
1t was one of the historical landmarks of
the city. The building was begun in 1864
and completed in 1865 from the plans OF

were seen to leave tho warehouse and run
along the quay. II is believed that they
were incendiaries as tho fire broke out
Immediately after. The docks were filed
with shipping. Scamen. soldiers and po-
lice made strenuous but unsuccessful
efforts To. subdue the flames. Tho tower
and roof collapsed at o'clock. AZ II 80
tonight tho walls fell and burned n po-
liceman and wounded many persons. The
warehouse belonged to the city. II was in-
sured for million and quarter francs.

One firm which occupied n portion of the
building claims its loss of grain amounts
to 100000 francs.
