Aiding Sufferers by Famine.

OF very interesting ceremonial today on
the occasion OF the presentation by the
Russian minister at Washington of souve-
Mrs from Gear Alexander III to Rev. DIR.
Talmage. of Brooklyn. and Dr. Louis
klopsch, of New York, in acknowledge
ment of the services they rendered to Rus
Bia and humanity during the terrible FAM
inc in sixteen Russian provinces last year.
1t was stated in the official invitation sent
to these gentlemen that the testimonials
were to be presented Sin the presence OF
Hussia's sailors and on Russian SOIL" the
deck of q man -of-war being SO regarded in
international law.
The invitation came quite unexpectedly
to both Drs. Talmage and Klopsch, for
they had already been honored by receiving
the personal thanks of the emperor last
July, when they visited Russia to superin-
tend the distribution of the 1900 tons of
provisions which they had chartered the
steamship Leo to carry from New York to
st. Petersburg. A prior shipment Of g.
1000 pounds of -four had been made on
the steamship Conemaugh from Philadel-
phia, both cargoes being purchased with a
fund of $35, 600. The cargoes arrived and
were distributed by Drs. Talmage and
klopsch in the interior at time when the
cholera was raging in the famine smitten
provinces. 1t was in recognition of their
courageous fulfllment of this self imposed
commission at such personal risk, ,as well
as to further emphasize Russia's friendship
for America in the Columbian year, that
the presentation took place

THE PLUCK ME SYSTEM,

HazIetOn Merchants the Victims of an
Attack at stockton.
few days ago the Hazleton Standard
made mention of an order posted by Linder-
man & Skeer, operators of the Stockton
collieries, prohibiting Hazleton and other
merchants from driving into that town to
supply the employees of the company with
groceries, meat, etc. The notice, however,
had little effect on the merchants, who con
tinued to send their agents there to make
orders and deliver goods.
The Standard now says it is informed that
the company have now adopted more direct
and effective means of coercing their en-
ployes into dealing in the store, that of
serving notice on them that unless their
groceries, meat, mine supplies etc, are pur-
chased from the companys store and butcher
they will be obliged to vacate the companys
houses and seek employment elsewhere.
In confirmation of its latter statement the
paper furnishes the following as verbatim
| copy (the name excepted) Of a notice served
on one of the employees who purchased his
| groceries from Hazleton merchants
"Mr. --, you are hereby notified that
we require you to leave and surrender up
possession to us of certain house at Stock.

tenances held by you under lease with u.s. on

all Of which you will take notice.

The newspaper states in addition: zone
of the men receiving such notice went to the
Office of the company to inquire the cause
thereof, when he was informed that if he
desired to remain he would have TO buy in
the company's store and from the company's
butcher. All this in The land of the free
and the home of the brave"

If the allegations made by the Hazleton
Plain Speaker on Saturday relative to tam.
pering with mails between Lofty and Maha.
noy City be true, and that the nefarious prac.
tice has been going on for some length of
time, it is well that the fact has come to light.
And since it has it is due SO the public, as
well as TO the mail service, that prompt and
rigid investigation be made. If the people
handling mail along that route are guilty Of
healleged oilense, they can easily be brought
to accounts if innocent they should not be
compelled to rest a day under the imputation.
The public place the most implicit confidence
in Uncle Sans mail service, and this conf
dence should not be allowed to be disturbed
by unwarranted allegations.
Irregularities in the mails are no uncom.
mon thing, and in some cases are, of course,
excusabe, but if the matter in the upper end
Of scbuylkill is as bad as represented by our
Hazleton contemporary there can be no valid
excuse therefore, and the sooner Investigated
the sooner it will be mended. No honest
man fears invesjg ition no dishonest man is
entitled to a place in the postal department
and the quicker ferretod out the better for
the service and the public at large.-Potts-
giHe Republican.
For year or more past complaints have
been made of mail matter not reaching its
destination and these complaints are nearly
all from points near home. Centralia people
seem to have suffered the most. From all
| that can be learned the greatest trouble lies
between Ceptralia and Hazleton. Quite fre
quently articles of merchandise are reported
lost between the cities of New York and
Philadelphia and this region.
A few years ago the trouble was located
near Scranton and the irregularities stopped,
but whether the parties responsible for them
were caught has never been learned.
The management of the post office here
courts the most searching investigation and
it is presumed the other postmasters of this
section do likewise. 1t is understood the
present trouble will be sifted to the bottom at
once.
