POLITICAL ASSESSMENTS.
Commissioner Roosevelt Has More to Say
Regarding Them.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-"In reference
to the charges of political assessments
at Philadelphia" said Civil Service
Commissioner Roosevelt yesterday,
'the commission finds, after investiga-
ton that there has been very little at
tempt at assessment in either the post
office or customhouse so far as the
classified service is concerned, the ma
jorty OF clerks, carriers, etc, being
left free to contribute to either party
as they wished. In the mint the con
dition of affairs was much the same as
at the Pittsburgh internal revenue
office, Most of the employees were
men appointed for political reasons
from the rank of the dominant party.
These people have received circulars
asking them to contribute, and again
reminding them OF their failure to con-
tribute if they did not do so at the first
request. Apparently there was no vio-
lation of the law committed in the way
these circulars were sent out, and there
was certainly no duress exercised by the
head of the mint on his subordinates
to make them contribute"

COSTLY FLAMES,

A Half-Million- Dollar Fire Visits East st.
Louisa Freight Warehouse and Two
Hundred Loaded and Empty Cars
Burned.
ST. Louis, Oct. 29.-At II o'clock last
night fire started in the warehouse OF
the Bridge & Terminal railway in East
st. Louis. The fire spread to the mass
of freight cars on both sides of the
warehouse and burned itself out for
want of material. The scene of the
fire was half mile north of the Relay
depot and in the center of a maze of
tracks filled with cars. The ware.
house, 750 feet long, was filed with
hay, cotton and grain.
The local fire department and en-.
gines from this city hurried to the fire,
but found no water, as there is not a
plug within fourth of mile of the
scene. Over 200 loaded and empty cars
were burned. From the time the alarm
was sounded freight engines and crews
were busy hauling cars into safety.
This alone prevented much heavier
loss. The estimates of the loss range
from S500,000 to S750.000 The freight
in the warehouse was mostly consigned
to the Jacksonville & Southeastern
railway. The cause of the fire is un-
known.

Hopes still Entertained for the Rescue

IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich, Oct. 26.-It
has been ascertained to certainty
that the ten men cntombed in the

terday are all Cornishmen but two,
who are Swedes. The body of Frank
Gabardi, the Italian, who nearly
escaped has been recovered. At 6
o'clock this evening they had dug to
within eight feet of the men, and some
of them at least were still alive, as a
distinct tapping can be heard on pipe
leading to where the men are en-
tombed. 1t is now thought probable
that at least some of them will be
rescued alive. The relatives of the
men linger around the shaft hoping
against hope.

CAN'T PROSECUTE REPEATERs
An Unlooked-for Result of the Repeal o
the Federal Election Laws

An Unlooked-for Result of the Repeal of
the Federal Election Laws.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The decision
given yesterday by Mr.. Draffen, the
Assistant United States district attor-
ney at Kansas City, that he could not
prosecute repeaters in the coming
election in view of the repeal of the
federal election laws, was topic of
interest at tie department of justice
to-day.
Attorney General Olney said that he
had not looked into the question, but
from his present knowledge he be-
lieved that Mr.. Draffen was correct in
his view of the case. There was no
doubt, however. said the attorney
general, that repeaters could be
brought into courts other those of the
United States and punished as severely
as under the federal statute which
had been repealed.

against the United States for Discrimina-
ting Against German beet Sugar In the
New Tariff Law beginning to Make It.
self Manifest.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The German
ambassador has formally notified the
secretary of state that in consequence
OF the introduction Of Texas fever by
means of two shipments from New
York, the importation of fresh beef
and cattle from the United States to
Germany would shortly be prohibited.
In his official note Baron Won Saurma-
Jeltse adds, in regard to cargoes afoat,
that shipments made from the United
States up to the 2sth of October will
be admitted to enter Germany only on
condition of being slaughtered immedi-
ately upon landing.
The department Of state makes pub
lie the notice for the information of in
tending shippers of live cattle and
fresh beef intended for Germany, but
officials decline to comment on the
matter, declaring that they have no
further information regarding the
cause OF this action of the German
government
1t is thought, however, that this
marks the commencement of a policy
OF commercial retaliation against the
United States on account of the dis
crimlnatlon against German beet
sugar in the new tariff law.
The department of agriculture.
which maintains careful inspection
of cattle and meat products exported,
insists that it is impossible that cattle
affected with Texas fever Or any sim
liar complaint could have been shipped
from New York, as claimed by the
German officials. No reports have
been received which indicate that this
disease or any other could have re-
Gently been exported from the United
States
Cattle are not expected to arrive in
perfect condition in foreign ports after
the long sea voyage, particularly at
this season of the year, when vessels
are liable to have rough passages, due
to the stormy conditions which prevail
on the Atlantic. The fever thus pro
duced by the sea voyage is what is
probably called Texas fever" by the
German government.
No complaints have been received
from other countries. The note of the
German ambassador is the first intima-
tion that the Germans had any fault
to find with American expectations OF
cattle, The department of agricul-
ture will be called upon to investigate
the complaint made by Germany, and
Secretary Gresham, it is expected, will
send protest against Germany's ac-
ton to tha. government through the
American ambassador at Berlin.

MISSISSIPPI MATTERS.
Coal In Mississippi.

New Albany, Oct. 25.-By some the
projected mining operations in this
county are looked upon as wild schemes,
based upon hastily drawn conclusions,
but such is not the case. Capt. P. M.
Savery, Of Tupelo. was in New Albany
today and when the subject was broached
became enthusiastic and declared that
the region in question did contain the
very best Of coal In sufficient quantities
to make 1t profitable to the owners Of
the mines. He stated that In 1865 a
party from Pennsylvania examined the
outcropping lodges of coal in the Tippah
hills, and pronounced 1t TO be equal,
II not superior, to the celebrated Lehigh
valley product. The destitute condi-
tion OF the country and bitterness en-
gendered by the war prevented the de-
velopment Of this valuable deposit,
which bad until recently been forg often.
That the coal and iron afS b6th tiierV'
in large quantities seems to be estab-
lished be, Und doubt The develop
ment is still to come. The company is
still taking mining leases on the lands

Attempted A Assassination.

Brookhaven, Oct. ga desperate at
tempt was made here last night to assas-
sinate Moses Anglin, young lad of 10
years, OF this city. He was sitting in
his mothers room, when some one fired
on him with a shotgun from an open
window. He rushed for his gun and re.
turned the fire, but without effect, and
the would-be assassin escaped. In the
spring of this year Anglin's brother had
difficulty with one Leonard Smith and
son in which Anglin was killed and
Smith slightly wounded. Smith escaped
from the authorities while under med
ical treatment and has not yet been ap-
pretended. Smiths son and Moses
Anglin had a difficulty recently, and
Smith is now under bond to appear at
court for assault and battery with in
tent to kill. Anglin and Smith were
neighbors, and a short while ago
Anglins home was burned and the fam
lily barely escaped, without saving any,
thing. 1t was known to have been set
on fire. Anglin then moved to town,
and has been unmolested until now
An effort is being made to discover the
assassin, and there is talk Of his being
summarily dealt with.
