ATLANTA's EXPOSITION.
The Appropriation Bill Favorably Re
ported by a Close Shave.

ported by a Close Shave.
Washington, June 4.-The bill appro-
priating 5000, 600 for government exhibit
at the Atlanta exposition was favorably
reported to-day by the appropriations
committee, but not without strong opposi-
tion on the part of nearly half of those
present. The supporters of the bill were
Messsrs. Livingston, of Georgia; Coombs,
of New York O'Neil, of Massachusetts,;
Diugley, Of Maine, and Cannon, of Iii
nois. The negative votes were cast by
Messrs. Sayegs, of Texas, chairman Of
the committee; Brookshire, of Indiana;
Williams, of Illinois, and Washington, of
Tennessee, all democrats. The opposi-
tion to the appropriation is based upon
several considerations, briefly these:
That the present is period Of great
financial depression and that the utmost
! economy should be used in the expendi-
| ture Of the public money; that the time
is inopportune, coming as IL does so closely
after the worlds fair at Chicago; that
each Of the quartette in opposition were
opposed to governmental aid for such pur-
poses, and, finally, that means to defray
the expenses were too much in prospect
i've and not sufficiently in hand to Justify
belief that il would prove a success.
Reference was made in this connection
to the estimated receipts which were
submitted Dy Ine COumlbGee WHICH VlS-
tied Washington several weeks ago to
urge an appropriation.
IL was estimated at that time that the
subscriptions from railways and other
corporations would be $4,000, that At
lanta ana other places in the south would
subscribe S250,000, that the gate receipts
would be 81 100000, the receipts from con-
cessions $780, 900 and from salvage S25, 600,
making in all estimated receipts of ST.
500, coo in round numbers. AS Offset TO
this the projectors of the enterprise have
only 100000, all told, with which to be-
gin work"
1t is understood that had the full COM
mittee been present the affirmative vote
would have been greatly increased. A
minority report embracing the fore going
nhiectinns will be filed

Martins Ferry, o., June 4.-No effort

engine tender at Barton tunnel, to drop
on a coal train should it succeed in passing
the miners fort. Thirty or forty miners
will be arrested.
General Manager Woodford said the
company could not be frightened by the
men; that positively coal trains would be
started by tomorrow and they would go
through one way or the other. Asked if
it was true if United States troops would
be called out, he declined to answer di-

A SECOND FATAL ACCIDENT.
LYMAN TO BE RETIRED.

The President Expected to Bow to
the Complaints Against Him.
Washington, June 4-Strong pressure
has been brought to bear upon the Presi-
dent within the past week to secure the
removal,of Civil Service Commissioner
Lyman. While the objections to MIR. Ly-
man in the past have originated princi-
pally, although not entirely, with the op-
popents of civil service reform,
the more recent objections against
him have come from the friends
OF reform. 1t is understood that the
President has given a qualified consent
TO Commissioner Lyman's removal. He
has not stated in so many words that this
will be done, but he is manifestly in
huenced by the arguments that have been
made against his retention, and those
who are familiar with the matter think
that 1t is only question of days before
Mr.. Lyman's resignation will be de-
manded
TO BE GIVEN ANOTHER PLACE.
1t is believed that MIR. Lyman's tenure
OF Office would be limited to an even
Drefer duration if it were possible for
MN in the public service. The argument
that has been made in favor of Mir. Ly-
mans dismissal is that his presence in
the commission is a source of constant
irritation to scores of public men,
who, while not hostile to the
service, regard it with indifference, and
who might, if any other gentleman sue
ceeds Mr.. Lyman, be induced to become
aI aI least quasi-supporters of the reform.
Inc President is disposed to tender to
Mr.. Lyman place in the consular
service if a vacancy can be made at some
point where the duties and remuneration
would be satisfactory TO him.

to Stay on Guard.
Washington, June 4.-Capt. Watson re-
ported by cable to the navy department
this morning the arrival Of the San Fran
cisco at Colon, where she had gone for
coal. The dispatch was long one and
contained the news that the young Mos
quito chieftain, Clarence, had been re-
stored to power, but the country was very
unsettled and it would be necessary to
protect the new ruler. 1t would
be necessary, Capt. Watson thought,
to keep an American war
ship at Bluefelds for the
present. The British cruiser is still
there. He does not say who reinstated
Chief Clarence, but the presumption is
that the British commander took the re-
sponsibility. Whether Capt. Watson Of
fered his protection TO Chief Clarence is
not clear, but it is understood that he
thought 1t necessary to offer protection.
A full written report Of the matter has
been sent by mail.
