Chicago Post once Demand.

Postmaster Gordon Of Chicago had a
brief interview with Postmaster General
Gary yesterday. He argued for alteration
Of the plans OF the new federal building in
Chicago so as to give the post Office about
p. 600 feet of additional space. This Is to
be secured by economixing space now used
for light and other purposes. He also took
occasion to state his advocacy Of the Post
master Generals postal savings bank pro-
1eci, and said 1t was very popular in
Chicago.

Fastest WAR CRAFT.

Russia Contracts for Three 3S-KnOt
Torpedo Boats.
The Navy Department has been informed
that Russia has contracted in England for
three new torpedo boats that will be easily
the fastest war craft in the world, being
capable of the speed of thirty-eight knots
an hour, with every probability of making
forty knots when pressed. This great
speed demands greater power than can be
supplied by ordinary engines, SO that the
boats will be driven by steam turbines
having four separate shafts, with three
three screw propellers on each shaft.

1t is also reported that Representative
Isaac A. Barber, who is involved i'm a strug-
gle with Col. James c. Mullikin, the veteran
Talbot leader over the control of the dele
cation from that county. may support the
governor. This is vehemently denied by
many Talbot republicans, but ii is pointed
out that DIR. Barber will also have a fight
for denomination on his hands, and will
be glad to have the backing Of Senator
Wellington and the state administration
when the fight for the party nomination
in the first district begins.
Not a few republicans of prominence be-
lieve, however, that when the time comes
to elect Mr.. Germans successor the man
who will win will be none of those men,
toned above, but will be either Postmaster
General James A. Gary or Major Alexander

Mayor William T. Master will at the last
moment step into the contest and carry on
the prize.

selfcontrol. The adjective is right. The
Mckinley temper is marveials. In the
four years of Presidential term the first
quarter is the most trying. This President
has passed through the ordeal The first
evidence ofirritation is vet to be h6fed.
Mr.. Mckinley is man of convictions. He
does not hesitate to exprea disapprov&
But he never yields to the petulance which
attends upon annoyances. There have
been great men in the White House, but
history records explosions Of passion from
Washington all of the way down the line
to the present exception. This equipoise
of Mr.. Mckinley is so remarkable that it,
has been spoken of frequently as natural
gift of great worth. The possesors haRe
been congratulated as if it was an
inheritance. The truth is, this complete
self. f.command is second, not first, nature
with Mr.. Mckinley. 1t was acquired by
such rigid training as seldom falls to the
lot of man.
81 remember Mckinley" said one of his
oldest friends, "as a man with his full
share Of impulsveness. The time was, when
he gave way as other men do under strain
or provocation. Do you want to know
what wrough: the change? For twenty
FIVE years this man has stood between his
wife and all that might give her the slight
est worry. No matter what the load he
was bearing, he has never failed to wear
in her presence smiling face What
ever emotions might be surging under
meath, he has appeared calm and placid
on the surface. This frail being owes her
life to his shielding care. Self control
was born of that twenty-five years of de-
votion. There you have the whole expana-
ton of what is so admirable in McKinley's
character. st. Louis Globe Iemocrat

bitten on the back of the hand by fox.
The abrasion soon healed and nothing
more was thought Of it until Tuesday, the

swollen, and painful. Spasms and con-
vulsions followed, and he died in great
agony on the night of the 9TH with what
was thought to be hydrophobia.
A local option was held at hartinsyille
on the 10th inst. The result was 36S votes
for license and 1S4 against license, the

VIRGINIA POPULISTS.
Probable That Some Arrangement Will
be Made With Democrats.

Speaking of the Ohio and Virginia cam
paigns, Senator Butler said, that there were
no developments which could be discussed.
"In Ohio," said he, "there are $4,000
voting Populists. They have not yet fused
with the Democrats, nor will they, unless
the basis of agreement is an equitable one.
In Virginia, it is probable that some AMIGA
BILE arrangement will be made between the
Democrats and Populists'"
Senator Butler would not give the prob
able programme to be followed in Virginia.
1t was learned from other sources, how
ever, that the Populists, when they meet
at Roanoke on the 25th inst, would prob
ably nominate ticket and then appoint a
committee to confer with the Democrats
when the latter hold their convention.
This committee will probably be given the
authority to withdraw any or all of the
Populist nominees, provided that the Dem
ocrats meet the Populists in adequate fu-
sion. 1t is said that the Republicans have
already made overtures to the Populists
for a combination, but this, of course, will
not be agreed to.

What's the matter with the citizens Of
the town? Have they become indifferent
to the health regulations of the pace? The
Mayor, Mr.. j. A. Greever, by direction
of the town council, called meeting Of
the citizens for last Saturday after
noon, to select Board of Health;
and not a citizen attended. Every well
regulated town or community now has g
Board of Health, and Tazewell ought not
be behind. 1t is true that the health ot
the community is now very good, but that
is no reason why proper steps should not
be taken to keep it so.

THE SULTAN MUST YIELD.
Sharp Replies from Crowned Heads Of
Europe.
NO AID, EVEN FROM THE KAISER.
But the Moslem Ruler is Still Defiant and
Wants to take Hand Again in
Cretan Affrirs.

CoNsrANTINoPLE, July 11.-Queen Vic
toria, Emperor William, Emperor Nicho-
las, President Faure and King Humbert
have replied to the kilograms received by
! them from the Sultan, and all give advice
similar to that sent by Emperor Francis
Joseph.
Emperor William says in substance that
he regrets his inability to dissociate him
self from the views held by the other
Powers.
Replies to the circular of the Turkish
Government to the Powers relative to the
frontier question have also been received
by the Ambassadors. They all decline to
admit the Turkish pretensions.
The Porte has sent another circular to
the Powers, proposing that, in view of the
disturbed condition existing in Crete, Tur-
key send reinforcements to the island. 10
this the Powers have also replied, endeav-
oring to dissuade the Porte from such a
step.
This latest proposal on the part Of the
Turkish Government is held to indicate
that the Sultan does not intend to yield in
regard to the frontier question.
LONDON, July 12.-The Times, Berlin
correspondent says the Sultans telegram
to Emperor William asked the Emperor to
consider the representations made by the
Turkish Ambassador at the German For
eign Office and to support them in the Eu-
ropean concert.
ROME, July 1.-THE Italia publishes

and Greece. NJ. Stoiloff says he is con-
vinced that Turkey-never believed in the
possibility of her retaining Thessaly,

Don't Go Out.

WHEELING, w. Va, July PA Gleat
change has come over the miners in this
State. The operators do not disguise
their intentions to do their best to keep the
organizers from doing effective work.
Meetings were held at Thacker, Elkhorn
and Bluefeld last night, but no definite
action was taken, though sympathy for
the strike was expressed.
Governor Atkinson and Adiutant Gen
eral Appleton are preparing for trouble,
and five hundred stands of arms have
been secured from the government for the
militia, with half million rounds of
ammunition, including gatling cartridges
The militia will beused as soon as occasion
requires. All the commanders have been
communicated with and ordered to be
ready.
The Cleveland, Lorraine and Wheeling
Railroad began today hauling West Vir-
ginia coal. There has been no trouble
thus far, as the strike leaders are trying to
keep their men from creating disturbances.
