NOVEL POINT DECIDED
Concerning the Application of a Hun

Concerning the Application of a Hun
garlan for Naturalization Papers.
NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-Chief Justice
DAILY has decided a novel point. Marcus
Braun, an applicant for naturalization
papers, asked that certain Objectionable
words be stricken from the papers.
Braun is a hungarian. On July 10th
last his declaration of intention to be-
come an American citizen was rejected by
the Naturalization Bureau, because
Braun refused to forswear allegiance to
the Emperor of Austria. He said he was
not a subject Of the Austrian Emperor,
utwas subject of the kingdom of Hun
gary.
Braun was an officer in the Hungarian
army. and when told he was considered
an Austrian he was wild with rage. he
employed Lawyer Abraham Levy to in
stitute proceedings to compel the Natur-
aiiZation Bureau to issue his papers.
Levy made motion before Judge DAILY
and asked that the Emperor OF Aus
trian be stricken from the papers. He
claimed that the autonomy OF ustria
and Hungary are distinct and separate.
and that the King Of Hungary was free
to act over his domain.
Judge Daily said he saw no reason for
granting the motion, but he would in-

court in the United States should be

Day in denying the motion.
Braun would not sign the paper after
the change suggested by Judge Daily was
made, and left the courtroom declaring
that he would lay the matter before the
Austrian Parliament.

THE CHINESE MISSION.
Minister DENLY Wishes to Resign-HIs
Son the Probable Successor.

Minister DENLY Wishes to Resign-HIs
Son the Probable Successor.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 50.-The story
comes from Evansville, Ind, that the
United States is liable to have new Min
lister to China. Colonel Charles Denby,
the present representative, would be
glad to come home and enjoy his we'll
won ease if he can be succeeded by his
son, Charles Denby. Jr., now Secretary
of the Legation at the Chinese capital.
When Colonel DENLY was appointed
American Minister TO China he asked that
his son be made Secretary of the legation.
Young DENLY had just graduated from
Princeton and was about beginning the
study of law. On his arrival he began to
study Cninese-not the vernacular or
everyday speech of The people, but the
court language as we'll. len years OF
close study has made him one of the two
or three Europeans in the diplomatic
service there who are proficient in both
languages. In fact. so well does he un-
derstand the court language that our lega-
ton does not require an Interpreter. lie
is also very much persona grdtd at the
palace, as his father is.
When President Harrison came into
Office Lii Hung Chang instructed the
Emperor would be personally gratified if
Colonel Denby could be continued as
American Minister at Pekin. Now, of
course, he remained.
Ii Charles Denby can be named as his
fathers successor, Colonel Denby will
probably resign next June. The In
diana delegation, so far as it has been
consulted, will not object to the appoint
ment, and as Secretary Gresham and
Denby have been friends from their
youth, and served together as colonies of
Indiana regiments in the same division
in the late war, it is probable that the
head of the State Department will favor
the promotion of his old friends son,
aud especially as he seems we'll fitted for
the place.
In any event, Charles Denby, Jr., will
come home in the spring, for he is to
marry Miss Martha Orr of Evansville
when the roses bloom. Miss Orr made
the tour around the world with ex-Secre-
tary and Mrs. John w. Foster, and gave
her lover a charming surprise on her ar
rival at Pekin, when young Denby did
not know that she was within 5000 miles
of the Chinese capital.
When Mrs. Cleveland was told this
story, she announced herself as strongly
in favor of Mr.. Denby's promotion. And
so he may get the place, in spite OF his
youth.

Ex- Matron Likens testified that the
reason given her by the Police Board for
her dismissal was ecoS omy. No oppor-
tunity was given her To explain the letter
from Jesse Parr. She considered PARIS S
letter an answer TO the advertisement ot
Mrs. Ellen Harnett for situation as cook
or as housekeeper as private and not Of

District Attorney Johnson asked Mrs.
Likens to what party she belonged.
Assistant Attorney-GeneralS Sales, who
appeared for the defendants, objected.
Mr.. Johnson declared: 81 expect to
show that all the defendants are members
of the Populist party; that the witness is
a member of the Republican party, and
that every effort was made TO get her out

this letter was addressed on the note to
Mrs. Likens, it was detained from her,
was carried to the President of the board
and announced by him that it was the
evidence upon which he could remove
this Witness"
The Commissioner sustained Mr.. Sales
objection.
Jesse Parr, who wrote the letter, testi-
lied that he did not intend it for any OF
the defendants, but for Mrs. Likens.
Mrs. Flora Frinckef formerly house
keeper for Matron Dwyer, testified that
Mrs. Dwyer over a year ago, in her pres

charged her because she refused to take a
letter from Mrs. Likens' desk.
Friends of Mrs. Likens testified that
Matron Dwyer gave them to understand
that Mrs. Likens was removed because
she was engaged in an immoral business.
Police Commissioner Barnes said that
President Mullins produced the Parr let
ter before the board, and declared il
proved her to be an improper person for
the office Of matron. Mr.. Barnes replied
that the letter contained nothing deroga-
tory to Mrs. Likens. She was never
notified to appear in regard to the matter.
Mr.. Johnson put in evidence Mullins
letter to the Rocky Mountain Nelos, in
which he announced: SHOULD ardent
defenders of Mrs. Likens desire further

Mr.. Mullins denied having written that
portion of the letter quoted, but acknowl-
edged having attached his signature to it.
A few more witnesses were examined
but gave uninportant testimony, after
which the hearing was continued until
tomorrow morning, when Governor
Waite will take the stand.
Governor Waite's appearance and con
duct throughout the day was that of {
man at peace with the whole world.

mated that free grain bags will mean saw
ing of $780, 900 year to California farm

however. The annual demand for grain
sacks is about %, 100000, of which Cali

has been about 26, 100000, and of the re-
manning 6,000,0 900. 1000, 900 have been pro-
duced at the San Quentin Prison and
1000, 600 at the California Jute Mills. The
latter have now closed down, and it is
claimed that the plant, valued at $3.50, 200,
has been rendered useless by the free inn
portation Of bags. The average duty has
been .6l55 bag, and this will now be
saved to the farmer. Since the enactment
of the new law the price of bags has
dropped from 81 cents to 81 cents.
