order Directed Against 5. Dich.
Mrs. Dora L. Starke filed a suit for in
junction and relief in the Superior Court
yesterday against S. Dich and the Ian
cashire Fire Insurance Company. The
Plaintiff alleges that Dich is endeavoring
to defraud her and asks that he be re
strained from disposng of the stock of
goods, in a store on Oglethorpe avenue
east. that is covered by a mortgage in
her favor.
This mortgage was given to secure loan
made some weeks ago. Since that time, il
is charged The principal defendant has
been dsposing of the stock of goods at
prices greatly less than the articles are
really worth, for the express purpose of
converting them into money and getting
away with the proceeds. The insurance
company is indebted to Dich in some
large amount upon a policy of insurance,
and Mrs. Starke wants il restrained from
paying this loss until her claim may be
decided by the court.
Restraining order was granted as pray
ed for Dich being prohibited from further
disposing of the stock Of goods and the
company from paying him the amount of
his loss covered by his policy until the
further order of the court. The plaintiff
is represented by Messrs. Twiggs & Oliver.

Of the field of survey-the Western. The
Republican membership stands:
A superf,uous Commission,

Among the facts that stand forth most
prominently, in connection with President
McKinley's formal order of return 10 the
spoils system, there is one that cannot
escape particular and serious attention. 1t
is that the order, and what will necessarily
follow from it, render the Civil Service
Commission barely perfunctory and alto
gether a superfuous agency of administra-
tion. 1t is absolutely shorn of power and
usefulness. just as the law it represents
and is supposed to apply and safeguard has
been entirely bereft of vitality and en-
forcibility.
Mr. McKinley's action in taking four
thousand places out of the classified list,
including a large number which may be
regarded as prizes of the service. was bad
enough in all conscience. In that alone
every pledge made by his party in 1896. on
the subject of civil service reform, and
every promise he, himself, has made since,
in the same connection, was deliberately
violated. But that indeed is a yenial sin
when compared with the provisions of his
order which practically eviscerate the
NuDle Iutl1i SSSlGAur tf thabiAAo 'aNt@AS
of departments to promote or transfer
political appointees without reference
to the civil service law or the Com
mission, and with only such examination
as to fitness as the appointing power may
choose to exact. This abuse is even pushed
to the length of permitting the employment
of persons in the non classified grade of
viding for their promotion to any place
their patrons may see fit to bestow upon
them.
Carefully analysed, the purpose of the
order is seen to be not what Mr.. Mckinley
calls it. 1t is not in the nature of rem
edy for a too sweeping application of the
merit system to certain offices difficult TO
adjust to it. 1t is a vicious and devas-
tating attack upon the system itself. That
exactly such a blow was contemplated all
along is illustrated in the fact that at no
time during the consideration and prepara-
tion of the order was the Civil Service
Commission. or any one Of its members.
consulted in the smallest degree. The
Commission learned of its contents and
character when the general public did, and
not an hour sooner.
From such contemptuous treatment, as
well as from the text of the order. which
plainly vacates their authority. it is impos-
sible for the Civil Service Commissioners
to make any deduction other than that, if
tolerated at ALL they are hereafter to be
regarded as puppets. They cannot fail TO
understand. further. that if they display a
Willingness to accept such Humiliation the
public inevitably will conclude that they
are content to occupy the position and to
be considered in the light of puppets.
There is but one possible thing for the
Civil Service Commission to do. if it ex-
poets to maintain its self-respect and the
respect Of the country. and that is to re-
sign in body, and Immediately.

He came originally from the vicinity OF
Vineland, N j.. and the cowboys and his
comrades at the garrison say he had an
unusual education.
But he was born tough. He shot and
killed barkeeper at Williams, 'Ariz-. when
he was but twenty. and narrowly escaped
hanging.
AS scout he was failure. because no
one had any confidence in him. He was
left 81. 500 by a New Jersey relative in 1898.
and when he got out of the service he spent
all the money in a month in Phoenix and
Yuma.
Then he drifted down to Sonora, Mexi-

him thought he was dead until the -ne~z

Germany Suggests That the Newark.
he Kept Away From, samo.

On account OF representations made to
the State Department by the German Ant
bassador in Washington it is uncertain
whether the cruiser Newark will be seat
to Samoa to relieve the PHILADELPHIA. 1t
is understood that the statement made by
the Ambassador was Informal and practi-
cally amounted to a suggestion that no or
ders for the Newark to proceed to Apia
be transmitted TO that vessel on her ar
rival at Valparaiso. Chile Just what the
reasons OF the German Government are for
TINS action cannot be definitely ascertained
but 1t is said that Germany has expressed
the belief that the present satisfactory
status OF international and domestic poIit-
ical affairs in Samoa might be changed
should the United States assign another
large warship to Samoan waters.
This is regarded as a somewhat ineon-
sistent attitude on the part of Germany.
as she has two warships in Samoan wa
tiers. while Great Britain. the other treaty
power, has the same number With the
withdrawal of the Philadelphia the only
representative Of the United States at Apia
will be the Badger. formerly a merchant
steamer and converted into an armed
transport for use in the war with Spain.
She is not war vessel and cannot COM
pare in fighting efficiency with any of the
British and German ships.
On March Is the Navy Department sent
an order to Admiral Kautz to return TO
the United States with the Philadelphia
as soon as he was satisfied that the politi-
cal situation would permit him TO do so.
He recently informed the Navy Department
that he would return TO San Francisco On
the Philadelphia about June 25. II Is.
therefore. probable that he will leave Apia
for the United States in few days. The
publication in newsnapers in connection
with Admiral Kautz's withdrawal Of the
statement that the Newark would be or
dered to Samoa, was the basis for the sug
gestion of the German Ambassador. No
action on the Ambassadors request has
been taken.
The Newark is expected to arrive at VAL
paraiso tomorrow or the next day. Should
the Government not decide before her ar
rival what action it will take in the mat
ter, the Newark will be held at Valparaiso
or perhaps sent to Callao to await the de-
termination of the Government.

Preparation for Receiving Return

Surgeon General sternberg has requested
Secretary Alger to order Col. Charles R.
Greenleaf 20 San Francisco, Cal, 10 assume
direction of the sanitary ARRANGEMENTS OF
the new model camp to be established at
the Preside fo~ troops returning from the
Philippines.
The Surgeon General is anxious to have
the new camp as near perfection as possi-
Bile in its sanitary arrangements and :he
latest improvements viii be adopted. Colo
mel Greenleaf has pronounced ideas regard
ing the drainage of camps and after his
inspection of Camp Meade, Pa, he has de
termined to follow. to some extent. the
general plan of that camp. 1t is his purpose
to lay out the new model camp so that
kitchens and latrines will be far removed
from each other. and there will be no repe-
tition of the conditions that existed ct
Camp Thomas and Chickamauga. by rea
son of disease being carried from latrines
to kitchens by flies. General Graham, in
his testimony before the Alger Relief
Commission, suggested that the regulations
should be amended so that the kitchens
should be on the further side of camp
from the sinks. and it is known that Colo
mel Greenleaf will adopt this idea in the
construction of the model camp.
DR.. Anita Newcomb McGee, Superinten-
ueHl OF the army Nurse corps, mas just
received from Miss Cowden, chief nurse
at the general hospital at San Francisco,
a gratifying report on the service of the
Army nurses. Miss Cowden reports that
they perform their work well and their
conduct has been such as to cause no un-
favorable comment whatever. She states
that at least twelve of the nurses at San
Francisco are ready for service in the
Philippines should the Government need
them, and that they are willing to go to
Manila with any of the regiments now un-
der orders for the Philippines. Ii is not
improbable that more nurses will be need
ed and DIR. MCGEE may recommend that the
nurses now at San Francisco be sent, as
they have all had some little experience
and are well qualified for such work.
Should they be ordered to Manila others
will Immediately replace them at the Pre-
sido. 'i'
Reports from San Francisco indicate that
the new general hospital will not be COM
pleted until near the end of June. General
Sternberg hoped that IL might be finished
before this so as to be put in readiness
for use Immediately upon the arrival Of the
first regiment to come home from the
