A CNiI-Service Middle.

There is a considerable muddle at
the Hannis distillery in Martinsburg,
in which Judge Jackson, injunctions,
the ofice-holders, the Treasury Off
Gals, the civil-service rules, Collector
White and the distilling company are
badly mixed. Collector a. B. White
has been in Martinsburg this week in
vestigating affairs, and the complica-
tons are such that he ordered the dis
tillery to be shut down until further
orders. Mr.. White gave out the fol-
lowing statement:
"In accordance with regulations and
custom, the commissioner OF internal
revenue on October | made the usual
changes in assignments of officers at the
large distillery plant of the Hannis Dis
tilling Company. j. G. Ruckman, Dem
ocrat. who had served as head stOrekeep-
er for September, was transferred, and
additional storekeeper John ID. Sutton,
Republican, a stOrekeeper reinstated
two months ago as Union soldier, was
appointed head stOrekeeper; William
Butler, Democrat, who had been addl-
tional storekeeper for three months, was
not assigned II. G. Berry, Democrat, a
pauger. on September 80 had his assign
ment revoked and Franklin L. Tnayer,
Republican. a Union soldier reinstated,
was assigned as gauger by the commits
Sioner in his place. On September %
Judge jackson, of the United States Dis
trict Court, on application Of Mr.. Butler,
who was enormously described as a
gauger, enjoined me from assigning any
one TO Buffers place, and enjoined every
body from performing the duties Of the
office. The motion to perpetuate the in
junction is to be heard at Clarksburg on
October q. On October Judge Jackson
issued two more injunctions Of the same
sweeping character, enjoining anyone
from performing the duties of either
Storekeeper j. Ct. Ruckman or Gauger
Berry.
'Storekeeper Sutton and Gauger
Thayer reported at the distillery OctO-
Der |, in accordance with their assign
ments, and | saw them duly installed.
No Injunction papers had been issued
on them. Later such papers were served.
As everybody but Ruckman. Butler and
Berry was enlolned, and as the secretary
of the Treasury on October 2 suspended
Butler and Berry from Office for gross
INSTRUMENTATION, the diStillery, which
has several million dollars worth of
whiskey in bond, cannot be supplied
with gaugers to withdraw goods, neither
can the necessary stOrekeepers and gaug-
ers be furnished to allow the distillery
to operate, which it had started to do
October ,. So orders were issued by the
revenue department to close ii down,
which has been done, pending the result
of the injunction hearing. The diStill-
cry had not been running for ten months
and had just started for a long run, hav-
ing received heavy orders with the re-
turn of prosperity. The government
officials and myself have been on the
ground several days, but have respected
the injunction, and the deputy marshal
who took possession has left. The claim
of the complainants is that transfer of
their duties, or non-aSSignment TO duty,
is violation of civil-service rules. The
government will resist the injunction to
the last.

Miss Katherine Gruber, aged about
forty-fve years, committed suicide yes
terday evening by hanging herself in
the garnet of her home, in Williams
port, Nd. She attempted to kill her
self in the forenoon, but was prevented
by her sister-in- law, Mrs. Samuel Cru
Der, who made her home with her. In
the evening Miss Gruber announced
that she was going to bed, but instead
went TO the garrett, made rope out OF
a Bingham apron, stood on chair,
fastened the rope around her neck and
to a rafter and kicked the chair from
under her. Her feet touched the floor,
but she drew them up till she swung
clear. Her sister-in-law finding her
bed unoccupied, searched and found
her dead. On August II Miss Gruber
tried to kill herself by shooting herself
in the left breast, near the heart, with
a 32-calibre revolver. She lay for
weeks in a critical condition, but
finally recovered. Once before she at
tempted to drown herself in a cistern.
Her mind was impaired by grief over
