Herr Rose then declared in a proclama-
ton dated Jan. 8, that he held that the
retention of the post of chief justice by
Mr. Chambers during the provisional gov
ornment was preclu6cd by the law, that he
considers there was a temporary vacancy,
and that the president OF the municipality
should replace the chief justice.
A third report from Herr Rose, dated
Jan. 25 refers to the Grevesmuhl case and
describes how. on Jan. 49, Grevesmuhl, a
German subject, was sentenced to fine
and Imprisonment by Chief Justice Cham
bers. The sentence of Imprisonment be-
came effective forthwith, and DR.. Raffel
''as representative chief justice" and by
the advice of Herr Rose, quashed the i'm
prisonment on the ground of irregularity
and brought Grevesmuhl to the German
consulate "as the sole competent legal au-
thority."
The German consul opened the proceed
ings against Grevesmuhl on Jan. 20, and
on the same day, considering the chief
Justices interference with the jurisdiction
of a consul to be a noteworthy circum-
stance. and interesting to all the consuls, i"
he invited his colleagues to a conference,
but they declined to attend.
On Jan. 21 Grevesmuhl was sentenced
to pay fine of 600 marks, and the money
was paid the same day.

MEALS ACCOUNTS WE'RE SHORT.
south Carolina COnvicts Were Used
on His Plantation.

Columbia, s. c., March 1O.-Just before
the general assembly adjourned recently
there were persistent rumors that Col. w.
A. Neal. retiring superintendent of the
state penitentiary, was short in his ac-
counts
The rumor became so persistent that a
legislative committee was appointed
charged with the investigation of the
financial affairs of the institution. The
committee began its work few days ago
In this city.
The facts brought out have been of
rather a startling nature. The law pro-
hibits the superintendent from hiring con-
ylcts for his personal use. The testimony
and Col Meals own statement show that
thirty convicts we're leased for several
years to a relative of Neal, the men really
being used on farms belonging to the SUI
perintendent for his own personal business
The investigation so far indicates a to-
tai shortage in accounts of $10107.56. If
che items for the hire of convicts used by
Neal, but obtained on the lease to his
relative, the latter being nomlnally re-
sponsible, while Neal in his testimony adj
mitted he was the beneficiary, are omitted,
then Meals apparent shortage is to date
81 ,699.12.
The testimony to-day cleared up many
points that had been confused. 1t also
served TO show that the board of direc-
tors who were charged with a general SUI
pervision of the entire penitentiary had
been kept woefully in the dark in regard
to matters which they were supposed 90
know something about.
Col Neal on the stand frankly admitted
using certain sums, and made the further
statement that he would pay to the insti-
tuition every dollar he was due 1t. To-
morrow the committee will mako a thor
ough investigate of the penitentiary's
accounts at the Carolina National Bank
Coz. Neal has been prominent in politics
for some years. He was defeated for re-
election last month.

KIPLING's RECOVERY SLOW.

terday the First Time.

New York, March. 10.-It was said that
Rudyard Kipling was lin the most tedious
period of convalescence and still very
weak" and that he was not progressing
as fast as the public had been led to be-
lieve." He passed a good night, and was
doing we'll" however. it was said. His
patience and resolution help materially in
the slow work of rebuilding mis- strength.
MIR. Kip.ing is still improving" said
MIR. Doubleday tonight. Mr.. Kipling had
taken some sweetbreads for supper, and
has been able to eat more solid food than
at any time since he became i'll.
Unable to keep Mr.. Kipling in ignorance
of his favorite daughters DEATH the news
was broken to him tonight by DR.. Dun
ham. The blow was a heavy one, but
the father bore UP bravely.
How long was she HIP he asked
He was then tod as much as the at
tendants thought wise. Tears stood in
the poets eyes, and he murmured half to
himself, half-aloud, Poor little Joe" 1t
was this he always called the little one.
The doctors believe il was best 20
break the news, as the worry and distruNt
he seemed to have in ali the replies given
to his queries about the little one would
have probably been more harmful than
to let him have the truth.

French Temperance Methods.

Paris Telegram to the London Standard.
The growing consumption Of alcohol by
certain classes in France is causing a GER
tain amount Of anxiety to the military au-
thorties. This anxiety is evidenced by a
series Of posters which have just been
placed in all the barracks of the garrison
of Paris, which clearly expose to the eyes
Of the soldier the ravages produced by al
cohol on the human system. These bills,
which have been freely exhibited in the
dormitories, lavatories and dining rooms,
shcw the internal organs Of a person ad-
dlcted to drink. and those of a sober,
healthy man. These diagrams are accom-
panied by a notice, which enumerates the
effects OF alcohol from a pathological
point Of view, and the consequences OF
alcoholism from moral standpoint.

Cleveland o., March 1O.-The amount of
81, 100000 is to be provided for .the build
ing of a modern steel establishment on
the shore of Lake Erie, and probably in
the Cleveland district. New York capt.
talists are to furnish the money, which
authorities on the subject of iron and steel
manufacture declare viii be undertaken
by another great iron and steel consolida-
ton to unite the Western bar mills.
The plan of consolidation upon which the
interests have been at work some time is
now said to be practically completed.
While the two Cleveland establishments
interested, the Lake Erie Iron Company
and the Union Rolling Company are ret-
cent concerning their relation to the move
ment the best available information is
that thirty-four out of the thirty-eight
works in the territory west of a north and
south line drawn through Pidsburg. are
taken in. The capacity of the works con-
templated is about 100000 tons OF bars an
nually
Efforts at some concert of action among
the bar mills date back for years, but
many difficulties arise in the way of con-
solidation. Some of these seem to have
been removed by the organization of the
National Steel Company.
