PAPER BIZ JUDGE MUNsoN
Read at United Church Chapel Under
Auspices of Chamber of Commerce.

Read at United Church Chapel Under
Auspices of Chamber of Commerce.
At United church chapel last night
Judge Lyman E. Munson read a paper
under the auspices of the Chamber of
Commerce on Jefferson and Lincoln
The paper was one of the most inter-
esting and instructive of it's kind read
in the city in some time and was list
ened to with close attention by the au-
dience. Judge Munson recalled inter-
esting incidents in the lives of the two
men and spoke of the periods of the ma
tion's history with which they were
contemporanous One of the most in
teresting parts of the paper was that
in which Mr.. Munson spoke of the
Alaska purchase made during Lin
coins administration and of the Louis
lana purchase made during Jefferson's
administration. He spoke of the vast
resources of Alaska and said that the
wealth of that region consisted not
alone of gold and silver and minerals
but also of timber and valuable fish
cries He compared the climate of
Alaska with the climate of other re-
gions in the same latitude and said
that at Sitka it was no colder in winter
than it was in several European capt.
tails, including Vienna and Berlin.
Judge Munson said that the Tooth an
niversary of the Louisiana purchase
occurred in 1903 and he predicted that
by that time the northern part of that
purchase would be connected with
Alaska by railroads.

HUAsE BROUGHT NO REPORT.
Long Has Not Seen Returned Stenographer
of the Naval Court,

Long Has Not Seen Returned Stenographer
of the Naval Court.
Washington, March 9.-Inasmuch as
the return to Washington of Mr.. Hulse,
who acted as one of the stenographers
of the court of inquiry at Key West,
has been made the basis for the as
sumption that he brought to the secre-
tary of the navy a report from the
court and also that he gave the secre-
tary what purported to be the conclu-
sions of the court as to the cause of
the Maine disaster, it may be stated
by authority of the secretary that he
has not seen Mr.. Hulse since the lat
ters return, nor does he expect to do
so. So far as can be gathered, Mr.
Hulse left the court of inquiry because
it had no longer need for his services
There was more than one stenographer
employed by the court when it was
deemed essential to make haste in
taking the testimony of the survivors
of the wreck in the early stages. When
that had been done, it was possible to
proceed before the court with less stem
ographic assistance, and Mr.. Hulse was
allowed to return to Washington.

London Daley Chronicles High Compile
ment to Mckinley.

London, March 10.-The Daily Chron-
icle in an editorial this morning on the
Cuban situation describes President
McKinley's action throughout the crisis
as "a model of craftsmanship" 1t de-
clares that the action Of the govern
ment in connection with the Maine dis
aster deserves the highest praise. Ar
guing at considerable length upon the
'unselfishness of Americas motives in
desiring to put an end to the hell upon
earth in Cuba" and insisting that
america has better right to inter-
fere than has been put forward as q
justification in two out of every three
wars in history" the Daily Chronicle
says: 1--WE hope Great Britain will not
only go as far officially as the furthest
limits of international law permits, but
that public opinion will declare itself
openly, Enthusiastically and in the teeth
of all Europe if necessary, as sympa-
thizing heartily with the motives i'm
pelling America at last to take a step
so natural and yet one she has so long
hesitated to take. At the same time
we wish it were possible to persuade,
even at the eleventh hour, that her
honor and Cuba might be saved by the
recognition of inevitable facts. To bid
Cuba be free would be ahard task, but
ut would be the safest and most digni-
fed course"

THE CARRINGToN PUBLISHING co,
REPORT or CIVIL SERVICE.
Important Recommend dations Are Made to
the President.

Washington, March 9.-Senator
Pritchard, chairman of the committee
on civil service, to-day presented the
report Of that committee on the re-
vice, embodying the conclusions of the
committee as follows: First, That the
executive has the power to make such
notifications as may be found advis-
able and therefore no legislation is
needed; secondly, the committee is
agreed that the classification has been
too extensive and that certain places
that have been classified should be ex-
cluded from classification so that ap-
pointments may be made to them, not
through legislation, but at the pleas
ure of the head of the department or
bureau. The committee, therefore, is
of the opinion that the president
should make certain notifications in
the existing civil service rules and
should restore to the heads of depart
ments and the heads Of bureaus the
appointment of certain classes of Off
cials. The committee, however, recog-
nizes that It's province in the matter is
purely advisory, since it has no legisla-
tion to propose"
Among the offices which the commit
tee recommended should be excluded
from the classified service are the fol-
lowing: Deputy commissioners, depu-
ty collectors of internal revenue. agents
who are employees of the commissioner
of internal revenue, temporary store
keepers and guagers, certain light
house employees, paymnsters in the
New York customs, shipping commits
sioner at the various ports, inspectors
of hulls and boilers, all positions in the
custodian service, assistant attorneys
and special agents in the department
of justice and deputy United States
marshals.
Senator Lodge presented his views in
separate report. While he agrees in
main with the report submitted by
Senator Pritchard he does not present
so long list of persons whom he would
have exempted from the civil service
law. He thinks a complete revision of
the system of local examining boards
of the pension office is necessary and
that the system should be so changed
as to secure a uniformity Of rating.
He thinks the service ought to be ex-
tended to the congressional library and
the clerical force in the District Of CO.
lumbia.

price. He made no further move in
the matter, and later the contract was
given to the Berlin Iron Bridge COM
pany for $4o0 on one bridge and
Bridgeport firm received another con-
tract at slightly advanced price to
put in a motor on another bridge. Be-

cross-examined at length as to their
ability as experts.

SERIOUS RIOTS IN BOMBAY
NUMBER OF OFlKOHAlfMEDANS, CHRIS
TIANS AND SOLDIERS KILLED..

Hysterical Mobs Attack Dwellings of Eu-
ropeans and Burn Ambulances--Tota
Loses Not Yet Known-Trouble Arises
Through Plague Party Inquiring Into
the Cause of Sickness of a Mohammedan
Woman.
Bombay, March 9.-Plague riots
broke out here to-day and Immediately
developed into alarming proportions.
The trouble arose through a plague
party inquiring into the cause of the
sickness of a Mohammedan woman.
An enormous crowd of Castemen gath
cred and stoned and mobbed the party,
which retired for an escort of armed
police and then returned and re-de-
manded the surrender Of the patielt,
which was refused. A Parsee magis-
trate, who exhorted the populace not
to resist the police, was himself struck,
whereupon he ordered the police to
charge. They did so and four Monarl-
medans were killed and several were
wounded.
The disturbance spread so rapidly
that the whole quarter around the
Bhendi bazar presented a spectacle
similar to that of the riots of 1898. The
Mohammedans, who We're Joined by
the Hindoos, assaulted every European
or Eurasian they met, and hysterical
mob attacked the European dwellings
in the suburb of Bycaulla. The resi-
dents barricaded themselves in their
houses and fired blank cartridges from
their windows, which drove the rioters
on. In the meanwhile troops were hnr-
ried to the scene and a battery Of ar
tillery is now patrolling the Bhendi ba-
zar. The outbreak was especially di-
rected against Christians. 1t is report
ed that two European soldiers were
nearly killed. but it is difficult, owing
to the excitement, to obtain correct de-
tails
The excitement has partially subsid-
ed this evening, but the situation is
still regarded as serious. Cavalry has
been ordered from Peenoh to assist in
patrolling the streets, and the volun-
teers have been called out. The city is
in the hands of the military. The two
members of the Shropshire regiment
who were killed We're walking unarm-
| ed The mob battered in their skulls.
! Many European officers and many po-
| licemen We're severely handled and Sc
riously injured In several instances
| Europeans who were traversing the
| native section Of the town alone were
| beaten or stabbed. Some were dan
gerously injured. In various parts of
the city plague anbulances were seized
and burned. Attempts We're made to
burn the hospitals and the European
nurses had narrow escapes. Finally
| they were escorted to place of safety
| by the troops. The mob attacked the
| Jamsetjee hospital and badly wounded
| Mr.. Gillespie, the house surgeon, but it
| was repulsed by rifle volleys and sew
eral of the rioters We're killed. The
! total losses of the rioters are as yet
| unknown, but the outbreak is regarded
as the most alarming that has occurred
