beginning at noon yesterday the third
anniversary opening of Harson's new
store, 1876 10 2U2 Westminster street. and
the 11th year OF the business, was in
auguratcd amid music aud flowers. Be
sides the decorations admired by thou-
sands OF former and prospective cus-
TONERS, the National Band cnlivened the
scene with popular airs, the concert
hours being fran II to I, 2 to and s t.
10 O'Clock. The store is replete with an
attractive stock of hats, gloves, neck
wear, ETC., which make in themselves
strong inducements TO passers-by to stop
and examine them. Each gentleman
attending the opening received a neat
sllicate slate memorandum book with
pencil attached, and the ladies' souvenirs
consisted OF handsome ca binet photo
graph frames. All through the after
noon and evening until the closing hour
the store was filed with people admir-
ing the neatly displayed stock. the hand
some floral decorations and listening 10
the music OF the band. Mr. Harscn Gd-
vertised that he wanted 10 see all his
friends, and stated particularly that he
esteemed his customers az his best
friends. His friends must be almost
without number, judging by the throngs
that blocked the sidewalk before his store
during the day. People came from all
parts Of the city TO attend the opening,
and they could easily be identified when
returning by their smiling faces and the
souvenirs I'm their hands. Mr.. Harson
can congratulate himself upon the fact
that his third grand opening was an un-
qualified success.

The so-called "schemo" OF the assistant
postmaster was then referred TO. Mr..

departure from the rules of tine depart

disbursements were made in the regular

sistants IN league with him were guilty

WORK that had never been done by
tho person VINO signed the
voucher and that Williams had
kinowlngly approved the same was pos
ltiVely denied. MIR. Williams said that
whenever extra work or temporary SER
vice W IS performed by substitute, only
authorized persous could receipt for he
money. This custom had been done
openly and was a matter of common
knowledge.
Mr.. Williams denied that II a letter car

would not be filled by another appoint

fiers. lie said that ia every case where "a
letter carrier Lett the service for
any cause new carrier in regular
line OF promotion was immedi-
ately appointed as his successor, his
confirmation from the department at
Washington generally boiry received
within AZ hours. It was anr ,surd state
ment on the face OF IL that carrier was
dropped and no successor substituted.
There were just as many routes as car
riers. The assistant Superintendent
cannot remove a carrier. He may DE sus-

the date OF his appointment ana as soon
as ne takes the route. This has been the
inyari0ble custom when carrier has

MIR. Williams said that no pay was
ever given for any service that had not
bfen performed. The complement OF
clerks was always filed by regular man
or substitute. Both were paid from
the allowance for clerk hire. There Were
never any vacancies, for the places have
TO be filled.
Mr.. Williams was indignant at the as
sertion that his wifo had drawn salary, as
well as four or five Others who never per-
IN order to appoint these poo-
pie he had removed faithful and
efficient employees for trifiing reasons.
lie said that he could but remember Of
only three designations of clerks in five or
SIX years, and no letter carrier had
been removed to his knowledge
since 1889 or 1890. The last vacancy oc-
CURED more than year ago. The man
was removed for cause and his place filed
at once. There are remarkably few
changes in the carriers force. The method
OF competitive examination is adopted
in case of the resignation of cleak, all
the persons below his grade of work par
tieipating The applicant receiving the
highest percentage is recommended and
the Others move no in rotation.
lie further said that Mr.. Abbott never
signed voucher, for there was nothing
for him TO sign except the payroll, the
same as the 50 other carriers did.

PORTLAND, Oregon, Sept. 14.-An infor-
nation with the interrogatories in an
order OF the court have been served on
number of banks in this city by District
Attorney Hume, appearing for the State
OF oregon. The information purports to

past have received divers and sundry de-
posits, the depositors of which have died
intestate in this State, and that sucn
deposits have escheated to the State of
Oregon, and that in order to obtain the
escheated property it is necessary to In

FATALLY HURT.
John Shirley, Painter. Fatally In.
jured Through CareIessness.

John Shirley, painter, was severely
injured in the III. w. Laid Com
papy store at noon today by being
caught In the freight elevator The
facts OF the accident are as follows: Shir-
ley had been at work painting in the
dressmaking department ON the
third floor and after washing went
TO the freight elevator which he
should not have done. The elevator was
ct the bottom OF the well and Shirley
pulled the cord to raise il, and when il
had reached the third floor he
reached out for the cord to have
1t come TO a stop when the elevator caught
his left hand, which was resting on the
guard rail across the opening of the well.
and crushed the bone of the wrist. The
shock was so severe that, Shirley lost his
balance and fell into the We'll and struck
the bottom.
He was taken TO the Rhode island Hos
pital where il was found that both legs
had been fractured and had also received
internal injuries 30 such an extent that
his recovery Is considered doubtful
by the officials at that institution. AS
soon as the am mbulance had been sent for
Mr.. Ladd sent a carriage to 90 Dartmouth
avenue, where Mr.. Shirley resided, with
instructions TO take Mrs. Shirley 10 the
hospital so that she might see her hus-
band IN case the injuries were OF a fatal
nature.
There can be no one to blame for the
sad accident but Mr.. Shirley, as there are
notices posted i'm conspicuous places of
the elevator warning all persons not TO
use the same under any circumstances
Al last accounts he was alive.

MORE HE ADS OFF.
The Custom House Axe Be-
gins TO Work Today.

and a Head Came Each Trip.

The postoiIice isn't 10 monopolize all
the interest today, and while the Custom
House has no scapdal TO air, yet heads
have come OFF just The same,
The official guillotine has been set up in
the Custom House today aud has already
fallsn four times each time taking head
with II.
Collector Francis T.. O'Reilly has re-
quested the resignation of the following
Office holders IN the Custom House:
john w. Cass, inspector and appraiser.
John Il. Richmond, inspector, weigher,
gaugor and measurer.
henry NJ. James, janitor.
BenOni Lewis, storekeeper.
That's pretty good as starter.
Whether there are Others TO follow Is
as yet a scaled book.
Who will succeed these officials is also n
question that remains unanswered, but IL
may be assumed that the vacancies will
soon be filled.
Collector O'ReilIy, when asked by THE
NEWS representative today TO enlightcn
the public upon this latter point, smiled
and gracefully avoided answering tho
question directly, although he said that
he would of course be glad to give any in
formation possible To THE NEWS.
All four officials whose designations the
new collector has asked for were appoint
ed by ex-Collector u. Pomroy and were
MI Republicans. MIR. John Il. Richmond,
who performs the duties of weigher,
ganger, measures and inspector, was APP
pointed July 10, 1890, as the Successes Go
William Il. Lally of Woonsockct, and his
salary has been $3.50 per day.
MIR. Henry M. James was appointed
ganitor July %, 1880, as the successor of
John Mehan, and the salary allotted To
his position Is S720.
Mr.. Benoni Lewis, who has been United
States storekeeper at the bonded ware
house OF Perry Davis a. Co. since his
appointment July 10, drew a salary OF
$3.50 year, and Mr.. John w. Cass, who
was appointed inspector and appraiser in
October, 1892, had salary OF $3.50 per
day.
Collector O'Reilly has taken an unusual
course in his removals, but one which
Will meet with cordial approval.
Generally the axe has fallen with thud
and the decapitated official has had no OPP
portunity To look around.
Collector O'Reilly, however, has asked
for their designations 20 be given in with
IN ID days, thus enabling them TO look
around for more remunerative employ
ment. II was very thoughtful and is
much appreciated.

The NEws-today indicated that a former

Its policy holders We're chiefly Rhode
Islanders.
Early last winter the officers of the
columbia Mutual secured control of the
commercial Alliance Life Insurance Com
pany on New York, and merged the former
INTO the latter about last January, ex-
changing policies with all policy holders.
The general offices were then removed

tanned in this city in Butler Exchange.
FOR months past there have been ru-
mors OF the financial Insecurity OF the
commercial Alliance Company which
haye now inateriaized by the action of
the New York Insurance Department..
Superlndent Pierce has written letter
TO Mr. T.. A. Dunham, who is resident rep
resenative OF the company in this city,
stating the condition of the company and
the exact Impairment of its capital.
Mr.. Dunham is ia New York at the
present time.
Manager G. A. Trafiord, who has charge
of the local Office is out OF town, and the
other young men i'm the Office first heard
OF the condition OF affairs from THE
NEWS representative. They said that
they had no knowledge of the financial
condition of the company. Last January
The local policies were transferred from
the Rhode Island 10 the New York COM
pany.
There were several policies written for
Providence and Rhode Island persons.
The men in the office couldn't say exactly
now many, but possibly thousand and
perhaps more. If the company goes into
the hands OF a receiver, and he uses up
everything he can lay his hands on, tho
Rhode Island policy holders will lose all
they have paid in. It's barely possible
that the Rhode Islanders may be trans
ferred to other companies.
