AGAINST ASSESSMENTS

Washington, August 26.-An official
pronunciamento against political assess
ments to all Government employees, con-
tanned in a circular letter of instructions.
was issued by the civil service commits
sion to-day, and will be promulgated as
general orders by all the various heads of
departments. This is believed to be the
hrst time the commission has taken part
In any warning of such sweeping charac-
ter, though 1T has several times given
similar notices to postal employees and to
employees of the Treasury Department.
From several sections of the country
complaints of illegal assessments have
Just reached the commission, and the
step taken to-day is due to a desire to
promptly and effectually stop these
methods of securing funds, the idea of
the general circular doubtless having
been approved by President Cleveland at
Gray Gables. The warming is principally
directed toward the postal and Treasury
employees, and the general orders en-
bodying the instructions will first be sent
forth by the Secretary of the Treasury
and the Acting Postmaster General.

WITHOUT FOUNDATION.

Washington, August 26.-The Navy
Department declares the loss of the
Monocacy to be absolutely without foun-
dation. A dispatch from Admiral Nc
Nair, in charge of the American fleet in
Pacific waters, was received only yester-
day, in which there was no mention of
any disaster to the Monocacy On
August 10 the department received a
message from McNair, mentioning the
fact that Captain Risinger, of the Mono
cacy, was to leave on the following day
Tor home. This was two weeks after the
reported date of the loss. The vessel at
present is in the III Ho river, China, and
the water in that stream has been so low
for some time that the Monocacy has been
stuck in the mud. This fact may have
given rise to the rumDred loss.

PREACHER AND REPORTER FIGHT.
Sensation in Macon's Leading Methodist
Church

Church.
a dispatch from Macon, Ga, of the
oath instant says: A sensation was Gre
ated in the leading Methodist Church of
this city, caused by a difficulty between
Rev. Alonzo Monk, pastor of the church,
and Tilden Adamson, a reporter of the
Daily Telegraph.
Mr.. Adamson reported the reverend
gentleman's sermon last Sunday, which
was pronounced by the pastor to be cor
rect. But in last nights services Mr..
Monk was particularly severe on the re-
porter, and reflected upon him in such a
manner as caused Mr.. Adamson to resent
it at the end of the services.
Going to the pulpit the young man de-
manded an explanation of the DOCTOR
remarks. AN exchange of words angered
both gentlemen, whereupon they grappled
each other
Deacons of the church rushed forward
and exchange of blows between them fol-
lowed. The newspaper man stood firm
and defended himself as best he could
against odds. Police were sent for. The
congregation was greatly excited, more
than thousand people being present.
Men and women stood on tiptoe to
watch the outcome of the scuffle. Finally
order was restored, but the services was
somewhat sho1 tened by the scene
Mr.. Monk has been particularly severe
on the barrooms and lewd houses of the
city, and his language has been the topic
of discussion for week. The trouble
last night is really an outcome of his SER
mon on the barrooms of Macon. Mr..
Monk is one of the ablest ministers in the
Methodist Church, and while people ap-
prove his attacks on the lower elements
of society, there are others who condemn
it as ill-advised and Incorporate
