The Gold Extracted From Their

He's only pauper, whom nobody

for often the party concerned is the
possessor Of a set of artificial teeth

and in the interest of the rate-payers

This week rings, chains, brooches and

NO HOT WAVE IN SIGHT.

Washingtonians viii Reyel in Cool
Weather the Remainder of This Week.
The cool wave which has been prevalent in
this vicinity since Sunday afternoon will in all
probability continue until Friday, and posi-
bly, longer.
A TIMES reporter visited the Weather Bu-
reau last night in search of information con-
cerning the approach Of a certain hot wave
which was reported yesterday afternoon to be
nearing this city and scheduled to reach here
in day or two. Forecaster Garriott was
surprised that such a story should have found
its way into the newspapers.
"There is not a word OF truth in it." said
he. "On the contrary, the prospect for a
continuance of this delightful weather until
Friday. at least. is exceedingly favorable.
The change in temperature is due to the rain
storm on Sunday afternoon, and to the black
clouds which have been passing over the city
for the past two days, thus preventing the
full force of the suns rays from reaching the
earth. Such showers as that of this after
ternoon are likely to occur every now and
then for day or two as the barometer in all
the surrounding States is high.
1.-THE maximum temperature to-day was
Sc 8, which is ten degrees cooler than that of
last week." continued Mr.. Garriott, .and the
residents OF Washington should not complain
of hot weather. This is cold compared with
the maximum ten days ago. and l would not
want a more pleasant day and evening""
The average temperature for July, 1894,
was 5, which is record meyer before
equaled for July temperature.

HOW TO DEAL WITH MOBS.
Gen. Schofield's Order During the Recen
Strike just Made Public.

Gen. Schofield's Order During the Recent
Strike just Made Public.
The leaders of the riotous mobs who con-
fronted the United States regular troops
during the progress of the great strike prob
ably did not realize how perilously near they
stood to violent death, for not only were the
troops fully authorized to shoot into the mobs,
but the commanding officers were instructed
to detail sharpshooters to shoot down indi-
vidual rioters who were particularly active.
LII General Order, No. %, issued at the time
by Gen. Schofield, which officers were in
structed to regard as confidential and which
was made public at the War Department only
yesterday, it was stated that whether or when
troops shall use the bayonet or saber, rifle or
cannon. is purely tactical question to be
determined by the immediate commander
according to his best judgment of the situ-
alton. The order further said:
1.-The troops are not called on to consider how
great may be the losses inflicted upon tine
public enemy, except to make their blows SO
effective as to promptly suppress all resistance
to lawful authority, and to stop the destruc-
ton of life the moment lawless resistance has
ceased. Punishment belongs not to the troops,
but to the courts of JUSTICE

the 40 per cent ad valorem item full n
cent extra per pound on all the sugar sold in
this country would probably not result dur
ing the first year in the importation of moro
than Il, 900 tons. or for years to come in the
importation of even one-tenth Of our total
consumption. The 40 per cent. item involves
not merely 4 cant per pound advantage to
the trust upon all its refined sugars, but
leaves to be measured by its own audacity the
greater amount that 1t shall choose to OK
tort under the protection thus afforded.
To secure from elsewhere even one-tenth Of
our American supply 1t would be necessary
to revolutionize the conditions Of sugar re-
flning and the commerce Of the world in ao-
cord with which raw sugar distribution to
countries outside Of US has been adjusted-at
an added expense which foreign reiners
could not assume except with full knowledge
that whenever the trade they had thus built
up became profitable the sugar trust could
wipe them out by simple change Of policy,
which would still leave 1t the most profitable
concern In the world.

now left for them but to report the results Of
their Investigations to the Senate.
He said the committee had been very
anxious to secure the attendance Of 8. G.

taken Senator Camden's order, but that he

Resignation of the Health Officer Causes
Considerable Surprise and Speculation
as to His Probable Successor.
Health Officer Hammett yesterday resigned
his position and, shortly after his letter was
handed to the Commissioners, q board ses-
sion was held and the resignation was &C.
cepted- DR.. Hammett was appointed health
officer August 81, 1891, and succeeded Dr..
Smith Townshend.
Tho letter Of resignation was short and
was 70 the effect that he desired to resume
his regular practice of medicine Is his duties
as an official had seriously interfered with II.
Rumor had it at different times during the
past year that DR.. Hammett would leave
sooner or later. 1t was thought at one time
during ex-Commissioner Parker's noun
bency that DIR. Hammstt wouli resign.
His successor has not been named, but
coroner Woodward is said to be slated for
the position. In proof Of this attention II
called to the many applications the Commis-
sioners have received within the past day or
so from local physicians for the position Of
Coroner, In all Of which it is stated
that the office would soon be vacant.
The most prominent cand late named for the
coroner's position in the event Of his transfer
is DR.. W. P. Carr, Of the Columbian Univer-
sity medical school.
Commissioner Truesdell, when questioned
about DR.. HammetI's resignation, stated that
it was a matter that the Commissioners had
discussed some days ago, but he declined to
go into any details.
He said that he did not know who would
be appointed in DR.. Hammett's place. at 10
rather a delicate matter" he remarkek, ito
talk OF it. We will appoint good man"
Engineer Commissioner Powell was very re-
ticent when asked concerning the resignation
and the next health officer. 1--WE will look
around carefully he said, land pick out q
good man." Commissioner Ross had nothing
to say relative to the matter.
The appointment of new health officer
will bring about with it a reorganization Of
that department. and there is every probabil-
ity that many changes will occur. 1t is likely
that Chief Clerk Tracey will have TO go, as
his position is that of confidential clerk to
the health officer, and the custom heretofore
has been to allow new health officer to ap-
point his own chief clerk.
