when She Undertook to Make Americans
Serve in Her Army.
Brussels, Dec. 3-The government has
decided that Americans residing in Be-
GUM Will hereafter be exempt from ser
vice in the civil guard.
In September last, In spite Of the fact
that according &c the treaty between the
United Staes and Belgium, neither coun-
try can call upon the citizens of the other
country for military service, the Belgian
government proposed to compel foreign
ers TO serve in the civil guard, on the
theory that that body was not part OF
the army. Thereupon the Americans re-
siding in Brussels held a meeting and
decided TO oppose the action OF the Bel
gian government, and resolutions were
adopted and forwarded to the United
States minister al Brussels, Mr. Storer,
asking for the Intervention OF the Unit
ed States government in the matter. Il.
Is doubtless due to the efforts OF the
United States that the Belgian govern
ment has now decided that Americans
residing in Belgium viii hereafter be ex-

NEW POINT IN POSTAL Law
Raised in tho Case of Removal ut Mantle
Atnbama

Mobile, Ala, Dee. 3.-For four days
past the newly appointed postmaster, P.
D. Barker, Republican, has in vain en-
deavored to obtain possession Of the Of
flee here from Postmaster Rapier, DEM
ocrat. The latter's attorneys have raised
an entirely new point oftlaw, which In
spector Tate says has never been raised
in his experience. Postmaster Rapiers'
commission expires in December, 1898.
Mr. Barker was appointed by Mr.. Nc
Kinley in October last. Mr.. Rapier has
had no notice of his removal, although
Inspector Tate served upon him tonight
Geographic instructions from Postmas-
ter General Gary, saying that Rapier
should accept Barker's commission as a
notice of removal, no other notice being
customary with the department.
Mr.. Rapiers' attorneys hold that the
language Of the statute relating 10 post
masters of the first class is special; that
it provides that the president shall ap-
point and may remove such officers by
and with the advice Of the senate. Con-
sequently, as Mr.. Rapfer's commission
has not expired and Mr.. Barker's ap-
pointment has not been confirmed by
the senate, nor Mr.. Rapier's removal
confirmed by the same body, Rapier is
still postmaster He Is now awaiting the
