EVERYTHING DRY NOW.
Col. Dick Bright EnfOrces PrOhibi-
ton at the Capitol.


Washington Special in Louisville Courier
Journal.
Some years ago a man named Fitzhugh
brought himself into prominence by writ
ing letter ir which he declared himself a
bigger man than old Grant" There is an
other fellow who has by decision virtually
declared himself bigger than both houses
OF Congress. and it is no less a person than
the Hon. Richard Bright, Sergeant-at-arms
of the Senate. Just now Colonel Dick is
in full command at the big building on the
hill. Under the law the sergeant
Of the Senate, the sergeant-at-arms of the
House and the architect of the Capitol
constitute a committee with power to make
rules and regulations for the management
of the Capitol. The architect Of the Cap
itol, who is chairman of the committee,
is out of the city, as is also the sergeant
Dick Bright in full charge. and he has just
done what both houses of Congress could
not do in the F'iftyfourth Congress i. e.,
put stop to the sale of liquor in the Sen
ate and House restaurants.
The other day ha went into the Senate
restaurant with the captain of police and
issued an order to the clerk in charge of
the restaurant that hereafter no more
liquor should be sold. Yesterday, accom-
panied by the captain, he called on Mr..
Lewis, proprietor of the House restaurant,
and issued a similar order, with instruc-
lions to the captain to see that the order
was obeyed. Thus by virtue of his position
to the sale of liquor in the Capitol, and a
joint resolution for the purpose could not
muster enough votes to be passed in the
Flfty-fourth Congress. This order, Of
course will hold until Congress sees fit to
abolish it. Speaker Reed comes from a
prohibition State and it is hardly probable
that he will care to go on record as an
advocate of the sale of liquors in the ma
ticnal Capitol. That is the. position he
would have to assume should he step in
ard tell Proprietor Lewis that he need not
obey Colonel Dicks order. For the first
few days of the session cold tea" will be
a popular beverage for the wet congress

Afghans Making War ON Rritish.

LONDON. Aug. 13-According to a dis
patch to the Times from Simla the force
which attacked Fort Shabkadri near Pesha-
wir, last Saturday, was made up principally
of Afghans from the Jalalabad district to-
gether with a contingent of natives of Lei
pura, claiming allegiance to the Ameer of
Afghanistan. The gathering occurred on
the Afghan territory proving that the
tribal subjects of the Ameer themselves
committed acts of hostility. The Afghan
officials do nothing to restrain them. On
the contrary, the Afghan general Gholen
Haidar commanding at Asmar. was in con
slant communication with the mullah
who led the attack This news has caused
more troops to be sent to Peshawur.

Withdra wal of a Candidate from the
Race for Senator.

YORKVILLE, s. c., Aug. 12.-The senate
rial campaign meeting here to-day was
quite dramatic. Candidate Maytield made
good an offer that if he could not prove that
Senator McLaurin had tried to organize a
Populist party in South Carolina. he would
withdraw as a candidate for the United
States Senate against McLaurin He said
he was now convinced from proof McLaur-
in had given him, that McLaurin largely
prevented Populist organization in South
Carolina. He said he had done Senator Nc
Laurin an injustice and would withdraw
from the race. Senator McLaurin shook
his hand and then thanked him amid great
applause. Governor Evans said Senator
McLaurin had invited him to go into the
Populist party with him, and this Fed to a
heated discussion. Senator McLaurin spoke
with such vehemence that he tainted on
concluding. He was taken 20 his hotel and
the doctors insist on his resting for a few
days. Governor Evans and Senator Nc

spondent of the North China Daily News,

The japanese troops are being rapidly re-

all dismantled and in ruins; expensive
Krupp guns of large calibre are lying about,
some broken and fractured by charges of
dynamite and all thrown down and dam
aged in such way as to be rendered utter
ly useless. The thrifty husbandman has.
in the meanwhile, changed the aspect of
affairs by using the ground occupied by the

Afghans Assisting the MuIlah in His
War on the British-Threats

LONDON, Aug. 12.-Dispatches received
here from Vienna show that the Austria
Hungarian government is intensely indig
nant at the utterances of NJ. StOilef, the
Bulgarian premier, and ut the latters re-
fusal to apologize for them The Pesther
Lloyd in an inspired article says: If the
politicians of Bulgaria, where the officially
authorized trade of murder flourishes, don't
appreciate the Importance of the cessation
of diplomatic relations, it will be necessary
to apply stronger measures, of which we
have plenty at our disposal We have MOTH
ing to do with M Stoleff in this matter
1t is Prince Ferdinand's duty to atone for
his premier's abominable conduct"
The Austrian charge d'affaires, Baron
Call Won Cumbach-Rosenburg, has left
Bulgaria on an indefinite leave of absence
His departure is owing to the refusal of
the Bulgarian premier, M. Stooff, to COM
ply with the demand of the Austrian gov
eminent to formally disavow an interview
with the premier published in the Lokal
Anzeiger of Berlin, last month, in which,
referring to the insistence of Austria upon
the punishment of Captain Boitcheff, the
former ad-de-camp of Prince Ferdinand
of Bulgaria, recently convicted of the muir
der of his paramour, Anna Simon, an Aus
TRAN subject, he drew an insulting parallel
between the venality il official circles in
Austria and Bulgaria.
The Bulgarian trouble is a sus-
pension rather than a rupture, of diplo-
matte relations, Baron Call Won Kuhn
-Rosenburg, the Austrian charge daft
flares at Sofia having intrusted the bust
ness of the legation to the secretary
Baron Hoenning, during his absence. 1t is
not likely that Austria will do anything
customers for Austrian goods
Matters are likely to remain as they are
for the present, and, as Bulgaria survived
d breach with Russia, she will also survive
a breach with Austria. 1t is suggested that
her masterful premier, NJ. Stoiloff, wishes
to embarrass Prince Ferdinand, who must
choose between dismissing his premier and
offending Austria. 1t is also alleged that
the Sultan has urged Prince Ferdinand to
resist, with view of creating a diversion
of European pressure now exercised upon
Turkey with reference to the peace treaty.
NJ. Stoiloff's antipathy to Austria is notori-
Gus, while the relations between the
Austrian Court and Prince Ferdinand had
already ceased entirely, the Emperor Fran
els Joseph having obstinately refused to
receive the prince.
Russia. according to a dispatch from ST
Petersburg in the Politische Correspond
ence, declines to give the slightest assist
ance to d declaration of Bulgarian indepen-
dence, and the dispatch says that all the
powers, desiring the preservation of peace,
would equally resist such a step.
