A BIGGER GAERIsoS AT CHICAGO.
Lifsie Army Pests in the West May Re
Abandoned.

wAsHrxeroH CITY, July E.-Daily re-
ports received at the war department from
troops engaged in preventing disturbances
on the railroads. in the West show that the
resistance Of the strikers has generally
diminished from formidable rfoting 10
petty annoyance and obstruction. Gen.
Merritt, 81 Sc. Paul, reports that ohstruc-
tons have been encountered on the Great
Northern road running north from st.
Paul, likewise at Livingston, Mont. There
Is friction on AL the Pacific roads. From
San Francisco Gen. Ruger reports that 10
will be necessary 10 send the trains under
guard for some time.
As soon rs, in Gen. Miles Judgment, it
will be advisable to do so, the regular
troops nov, in Chicago will be withdrawn,
but unless Gen. Miles 80 recommends no
suggestions or outside requests will have
any effect with authorities here. The his4
tory Of the Chicago riots has confirmed. In
official circles here, the belief I'm the sound
ness Of Gen, sehohead favorite policy Of
consolidation of troops at great central
posts near the large cities. It Is the in
tention nov TO carry 9out this idea as
far as possible The drst manifestation
Of this decision will be- Chicago, for
although the troops will sbe Withdrawn
from the city. they will gos TO Fort sheri-
dan. fifteen miles distants and nine cons

OWL Service Reform Given . Severe
lci Going Over.
WASHINGTON, July 14.-Ths house
transacted no business today before tho
hour arrived which had been set apart
by the special rule for eulogies in honor
of the late Representative Houk OF
Ohio. Many speeches were delivered.
After passing bill for the construc-
tion Of bridge across the Mississippi
at Eagle point, Dubuque. the house
went into committee OF the whole to
consider bill for the creation of a re-
tired list of disabled officers in the rev.
enue marine service. Clark Of Missouri
continued his opposition. He de-
olared that the civil service sys-
tenn was the monumental fraud of
the century. mot 10 men in this
house." he said, could stand an exam.
ination for 5000 clerkship. Why, they
asked one man how many British SOL
diers we're eent here daring the revolu-
tionary war. The applicant replied he
did not know the exact number. but he
knew a damned sight more came over
than went back" TLaughter.1
Mr.. Mallory (Dem.), Of Florida, made
strong plea for justice to the officers OF
the revenue cutter SERVICE. The hour
expired without sotion.
Under tine special order the remainder
OF the day was devoted to eulogies on the
life and character of the late George w,

Tho Best Of pishwashers.

Nothing, says q writer in the New
York Times, makes a better dishcloth
than no cloth at all, but whisk broom.
The practice of using any old rag, an
old stocking cut open, which is tradi-
tional country cloth, or any similar
thing in sinks is we'll known to be fool
ish. Bits wear of and become added
clogs to the drain pipes. If cloths must
be had, those Of coarse mesh, loosely
knitted from a tightly woven cord, are
the best Of the kind. A broom, however,
is very much better. Select short,
stubby one, and trial will show its
superiority. To scrape the bottom of
saucepans and pots there is nothing SO
good. The wire cloth is not SO cleanly.
Bits Of food will get in Its interstices
and will not easily get out, but nothing
clings long to whisk. Hold it under
the faucet for moment after using,
and it is quickly and thoroughly
cleansed. Hanging over the sink in my
kitchen are always two or three of these
brooms, one kept for plates and any pot
terry dishes, the other for metal ware.
Silver and glass are not washed there
to begin with, and in any washing
need no dishcloth.
And, while on the subject, cheese
cloth makes tho most satisfactory of
glass toweling. Get the coarse sort that
costs only and cents yard, cut it
in yard lengths, hem all around, and
once tried they will never be missing
from your butler's pantry outfit.
