The Supreme Court handed down a
decision in the case of Ohio against
Commissioners Knight and Gibson, for
making II contract with the architect
without consulting the Building COM
mittee. The defendants we're found gull
ty in the Common Pleas court and the
Circuit court sustained the verdict, but
the Supreme cour treyersed the decis-
lon. The case, by the above decision,
Is sent back for new trial, but that
will hardly take place, as the principal
penalty, that Of forfeiture, has already
been executed. The fine OF 800 will
not be enforced, and the county will
have the costs to pay. All the other
cases against the Commissioners in
cluding those against the contractors,
architects and successful bidders in fur

by Prosecuting Attorney Murphy.
The Supreme courts decision makes a
clean sweep OF the docket. Here is an

Gently wrote letter to the architect:

The death of William Seik aged 20
years, Of PembervilI., occurred under
rather peculiar circumstances. He
was pail bearer at The funeral of Cas-
per Becker and while assisting in low
ering the casket into the ground was
taken ill. He was taken home and two
hours later died. Upon examination,
it was discovered that while leaning
over the grave and supporting the cof-
fn containing the remains of his friend
Becker blood vessel in his head had
burst, causing the illness which termi-
mated IN death only two hours later.

Any action taken by policical bosses
that has for its object the defeat of the
wishes of the general public is vicious
and should be thwarted. This is es-
pecially true with reference to present
national politics. The people through
out the entire country desire Mckinley
as the Republican standard bearer, and
any effort to bring about any. contrary
result at the st. Louis convention is a
direct opposition to oft the times ex-
pressed desires of the general public.

POSTMASTERS' SALARIES.
Decision in Verdier Case Does No
Affect Former Rulings.

The publication in regard to tile recent
decision of the Supreme Court of the United
States in the case of the United States
against William j. Verdier relative to the
rcadjustment of postmasters' salaries un-
der the acts of July 2. 1866, and March
,, 1888, was commented upon by Judge
Thomas. Assistant Attorney General for the
rpstoffice Department, yesterday.
He was aSkedifth decision W ould d cause 4
reversal of the policy of the department
under these acts and thus let in the claims
of about 90 900 pcstmasters, aggrcgating
50 500 900. which had heretufare nren re
jected. He said that the decision would
have no such effect.
No question was involved in that case
that affected in the remotest degree the
former rulings Of the department, the only
question being one relating to interest. The
salary Of the postmaster at Beaufort s. c.,
was readjusted ON the theory adopted by
the department under Postmaster General
Gresham. IL 1854, and followed by all his
successors to this IN oment, and this theory
OF adjustment was not questioned by either
party in the Vcrdier case
Ferdier claimed. however, that as the
salary which was readjusted and allowed in
1856 accrued in 1868, the postmaster
was entitled to intercs I thereon from 1868
but the Supreme Court held that this claim
was not well founded and refused to allow
interest

GOLD IS A GLUT.
Treasury Now Fighting Shy of
Yellow Bullion.

There is no present likelihood that tn"
Treasury Department will voluntarily IT..
sumo the issue of gold certificates for
bullion gold deposited.
Within the past week sterling exchange
has gradually grown stronger until now il
has reached within fraction of the gold
exporting point
During December and January it is usual
for imports to be heavy, as Il result of
which gold has to be sent abroad in Janu-
ary and February to meet the payment Of
the goods thus imported.
At presc mt the goldreservc is $40 900 900
above the reserve limit, and the Treasury
rather dscourages than otherwise the re-
ceipt of gold as it reduces its supply of
currency. In round figures it has on hand
net, $40, 900 900 in currency available for
its daily business.
