EXPERT COUNTERS.
Those Authorized VIII BE Taken
From the List Discharged n Year Ago

Those Authorized VIII Re Taken
From the List Discharged Year Ago
1t is expected that Secretary Carlisle will
appoint twenty-five money counters in a
day or two. Provision for their appoint
ment is contained in the urgent deficiency
bill. which has just become a law by ex-
ecutive approval. The appropriation was
for twenty-five expert counters at $40 per
annum each. They are greatly needed in
the treasurer's office to assist in the work
of counting and examining old and worm
out national bank notes sent in for re-
demption.
SiXty-four' women engaged on this work
were discharged last March because of a
decision of the controller of the treasury
that there was no legal authority for their
employment They had been paid out of
the appropriation for the purchase of silver
under the Sherman act.
This large reduction in the force fas
seriously crippled the growing work Of the
office. and advantage will be taken at oEce
of the authority for the appointment of
twenty-five additional counters. - "
Secretary Carlisle has decided to make
the appointments out of the list of sixty
four discharged counters. The statute calls
for experts and the Secretary feels con-
strained to give the old employees the
preference. Even restricting the appoint
ments to that list. he will have great diff
fculty in making the selections. 1t is
stated positively that the Secretary will
not go outside of that list in a single in

THE CITY OF BARCELONA
Mr.. Frank Bright Tells Some of His Im-
pressions of the Pace.
Practically Two Cities, One Extreme
ly Ancient and the Other
Very Modern.

The outburst of Spanish rage against
the United States in Barcelona has made
that ancient city the object of much more
interest just at present than usual. 1t is
the principal seaport of Spain. and is espe-
ciaily to be remembered by Americans as
the port at which Columbus landed from
his voyage of discovery. Mr.. Frank
Bright. assistant 10 the sergeant at arms
OF the Senate, spent six months there sew
eral years ago secretary of the commits
sion sent by this government TO represent
the nation at the great Barcelona eXposi-
ton. He said to Star reporter this
morning:
barcelona is the most peculiar city
ever saw. One half of il dates back to the
days of Carthage and is ancient enough in
its aracteriStics ana architecture to
please the most ardent afchaeOlogist. The
other half Is modern, very much so, and
looks more like Kansas City than a Span
ish metropolis. The pecuIiarity of the city
is that these two towns, the old and the
rev, are not merged in the least, but are
divided by a line of demarcation as bluntiy
as Though by wall. The whole city con-
tains about 4a00 people. who are active
and enterprisng. They are most curious
mixture Of races; the Spanish blood is, of
course. in the preponderance, but with it
is mingled in generous quantities African,
Moorish and French blood. and Of the 4io,-
speak the pure Castilian Spanish.
1.-The inhabitants are hot-tempered and
passionate, SO IL is not surprising that the
recent outbreak occurred. The SpaniardS
place their national honor far above all
other considera tions and il is evident that
the treatment of the Cuban matter by the
Senate has fired the Barcelonians to un-
usual depths Of feeling.
Il notice the dispatches state that stu
dents formed the principal element Of the
mob that attacked the consulate. There
is no great university in. the city, but the
students are very numerous. there being
several establishments of learning, a
rule controlled by the church The con-
sulate is in the new part OF the town, in
quiet neighborhood. and as such demon
strations usually originate in the old city,
which is the more turbulent, il is prob
able that the mob trayerSed a long distance
in moving against the residence of the
American representative.
The streets of Barcelona are peculiar,
being called 'ramblas.' In the center of
each is raised walk. used only by pedes-
trians. and on each side of this is mar
row driveway.
There is but oEe ran,hia ih the old town,
all the ether passagcTayS being narrow
streets, or latEer alleys, that are often not
wide enough to pc lmii the pass3 &c of two
vehicles. Hence it is frequent to observe
either side, worn hy the hubs of wheels of
wagons and carts forced to the sides by
narrow limits In pa sing.
barcelona has nc natural harbor, SO
great pier has heen built out parallel to
one shore. so 10 make an artificial shell

MRS. STANFORD WINS,
The Supreme Court Relieves Her Of
Personal Liability.

In the United States Supreme Court today
Justice Harlan handed down the opinion
in the Stanford case. He held that in
dividual stockholders were not liable for
the government debt of the Central Pacific
Railroad Company. He reviewed the his
tory Of the litigation at length, and also
referred to the contention by both the
government and Mrs. Stanford. He said
the congressional acts Of 1862 1864 and
1865 regarding the Pacific railroad must al!
be regarded as ore law, the object was
tie construction of one continuous line
Congress employing the different railroad
COMPARES only as instruments. Security
was given in the government mortgage on
the property of the railroad companies.
1t was, he said, not too much to say that
II in the building of the Northern Pacific,
for instance, the stockholders had been
made liable, the purpose of Congress to Sc
cure national highway would have been
materially retarded. and it was plain that
no obligation was meant 10 he put on one
company that was not put on the other
ANY other construction would be inconsist-
