CHICAGO. Dec. 17.--All the women clerks
and stenographers of the Chicago g. North
western Railroad who have not been in the
employ of the company for at least two
years are to be discharged. The vacancies
will be filled by men. The rule applies to
every Office on the Northwestern system.
An official of the road said to-day: THE
move was not because the women proved in
efficient but is simply carrying out the COM
pany's policy in the matter OF promotion OF
employees. The Northwestern wishes to adj
vance its employees from low positions to Of
fees of trust. Can you imagine woman
as general superintendent or general man
ager OF the affairs of this great railway
system? l think not But just so long as
we have women in the clerical positions the
source from which to draw valuable officials
in the future is narrowed to small limits

MORE SURGEONS NEEDED.
General Sternherg Before the House
Military Committee.


WASHINGTON, Dec. I.-Surgeon Gen
eral Sternberg, of the army was heard by
the House committee on military affairs to-
day concerning the proposed increase in the
army In the main the hearing was con-
fined to the bureau needs, without reference
to the recent war. General Sternberg said
that the medical branch of the army at no
peace. Now that it was proposed to expand
the army fourfold, the medical branch
should he expanded at least threefold He
urged that the most essential need of the
medical corps was to have experienced men
quickly available for emergencies. The
want Of experienced medical officers had
been the main trouble in the recent war.
The surgeon general, he believed, should
be given the rank of major general al
though he hardly expected this to be done.
lie was ready to go until retirement on
the present basis himself and merely urged
the rank as a matter of proper organization.
lie approved the appointment of trained
pharmacists The subject of complaints and
the Santiago campaign was brought up by
Mr.. Hay, of Virginia, who asked a num-
Der of questions. General Sternberg said
the military situation was responsible for
what occurred.
heard on the needs of that branch of the
service. He kept closely to the work of the
bureau. declining to be led into discussions
on account of the war. He pointed out the
extent OF work done by the army engineers,
covering not only army operations, but also
the vast river and harbor improvements,
lighthouse boards. Mississippi and Missouri
river commissions, etc.

C. S. BRIGGS SUCCESSOR.
George l.. Bradbury Mentioned for
the Presidency of Two Roads.

CLEVELAND, o., Dec 1.-THE general
manager of the Lake Erie & Western road,
Mr.. George l.. Bradbury, of Chicago, and
one of the directors of the Cleveland, Akron
& Columbus, is mentioned here as a success
sor to the late Senator Brice president of
the Lake Erie e. Western and also the
Cleveland, Akron & Columbus Bradbury
has represented the Brice interests in the
Lake Erie & Western road for several
years. Andrew Squire, member of the
board of directors of the Cleveland. Akron
& Columbus road, said that Bradbury was
the only Western man who had any chance
of being elected to succeed Brice. The effect
of the death of ex-senator Brice on the con-
templated new east-and-west through rail-
road lines which promises much for Akron
was much talked of to-day. There is also
much speculation as to what effect Brice's
death will have on the Cleveland, Akron a.
Columbus and Pittsburg a. Western Rail-
roads of which he was the principal owner.
The affairs of these roads have been I'M
settled for some time past, and, although
Brice was formulating new plans which, 1t
was thought, would prove successful no
one is credited with being able to carry
them out Should the heirs decide to dispose
of these roads 1t is likely that the Balti-
more q Ohio would be the buyer. In this
event Akron would be Baltimore & Ohio
town and one of the principal, II not the
most important, points on that line.

LIBERALS NOT PLEASED
HARCOURT RESIGNATION HAS
CAUSED ILL-FEELING.
Sir William Severely Criticised for
His '.Trap-DOor Exit" from the
Front of His Party Stage.
Copyright, 1898. by the Associated Press>

Copyright 1893 by the Associated Press)
LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE sensation of the
political week has been Sir William Vernon
Harcourts trap-door exit from the front of
the Liberal stage, which has left his party
in a broken-winged condition and it is very
clear, from the speeches delivered at yes
terdays meeting Of the National Liberal
Federation that the rank and file are seri-
ousIy displeased with what is regarded
in the light of desertion. The letters of Sir
William Vernon Harcourt reveal that
state of intrigue and internal division has
existed in inner Liberal circles for the past
year. But the Liberal organs and speakers
emphatcally deny that there was any de-
sire to supplant him.
Now the Liberal organs openly give Sir
William piece of their mind. The Speaker,
mouthpiece of the party, says: Neither
the tone nor the actual language of Sir
William Harcourt or Mr.. Morley are what
we had the right to expect from them. They
have been regarded as shining examples, and
we are sorry they have now fallen short of
their own reputation"
DIR. Spence Watson, the great wire puller"
of the party is even more unkind. Referring
to Sir William Vernon Harcourts letter OF
resignation, he remarked snappishly: There

party"
The Liberals seem quite divided on the
subject of Sir Williams successor, and the
tone Of their press is marked by an embar-
RAISING conflict Of Preferences for Mr. Nor
ley Mr.. Asquith and Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman Mr.. Asquith perhaps having a
slight lead. and If he consented to sacrince
his big practice at the bar which is incon-
sistent with the duties of the Liberal lead
ership, he would undoubtedly be selected
Hartcourt will remain a private member of
the party, and soon the Liberals come
into power he will receive a peerage and
practically retire from parliamentary life.
The Irish members OF Parliament affect
to be highly pleased at the disorganizatton
of the Liberal party. The Freeman's Jour
nal hits home when it says: THE Liberal
Wisemen for years past have been lecturing
the Irishmen on the subject of dissension,
which they gave as justification for their
postponement of home rule. But they COM
pletely ignored the beam in their own eve.
The Freemans Journal then declared that
the disruption of the Liberals enormously
enhances the power of the United Irish
party, as it prevents such triumph of
the hostile elements in the Liberal party as
to render them independent of Irish power

TExARCANA, Tex. Dec. 17.--While Dep
uty Sheriff Lynch and other officers were
taking Newt Gaines, negro. TO jail at Bur
ton a mob demanded the prisoner. Lynch,
who is noted for his fearlessness, drew a
revolver and showed fight. The mob then
surrounded the station, where the officers
were waiting for train. and began fusil-
lade through the windows. Gaines'S body
was riddled with bullets. The officers threw
themselves upon the floor and thus saved
their own lives. The mob then disappeared.

NO GENERAL RECIPROCITY.
A Few Articles May Be Included in
the TreatY with Canada.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE meeting of
the Canadian joint commission ON Monday
next will be the last before Jan. 5, when
the commissioners will reassemble in Wash
ington to conclude whatever treaty they are
able to agree upon for presentation to their
respective governments. 1t may be def
nitely stated that a treaty covering prac-
tically all the points under consideration,
except that of reciprocity will be signed. 1t
is almost equally sure that some matters of
reciprocal trade relations will be adjusted
and that these will be fewer in number than
the Canadian commissioners had hoped i'll
opening negotiations. Any more definite
statement than this it is said upon au-
thOrity, would be speculation upon very in
sufficient basis. Both sides of the commits
sion adhere to their policy of silence on the
ground that any premature publication
would jeopardize the chances of ratifying
whatever features of the treaty have been
agreed upon. 1t may be said, however, that
lumber and agricultural products are the
two stumbling blocks TO full reciprocity.
