CANTEENS AT ARMY POSTS.
Construction of the Law Relating
to Post Canteens by Attorney
General Griggs.

Washington, April 5.-The secretary
of war recently requested the opinion
of the attorney general as to whether
section II of the act passed at the last
session of congress increasing the eff
ficiency of the army" prohibits the
continuance of the sale of Intoxicating
drinks by the government in the can
teen sections of the post exchanges,
which are organized and maintained
at the various army posts and encamp-
ments throughout the United States.
The attorney general, in his reply,
hclds that the section in question does
not prohibit the continuance of the
sale of Intoxicating drinks through
the canteen sections as heretofore or
gsnized and carried on, except that
no officer or enlisted man can be de-
tailed for duty in the canteen section
to do the selling.

THE MICHIGAN ELECTIONS.
Revised Unofficial Estimates show
Very Little General Political
Change-Democratic Gains.

Detroit, Mich, April 5.-Revised es-
Inmates of the elction results, based
on incomplete returns from nearly all
counties in Michigan, place Judge
Grants plurality for supreme court
justice at $4,000 in round numbers. He
has probably run but little behind the
republican candidates for university
regents. In Detroit, Judge Grant ran
heavily behind his ticket and lost the
city by nearly 1000, and the county by
5000. The union labor movement
against Grant, however, had gained
little impetus in the smaller cities, and
he nearly held his own through the
state at large. Fully two-thirds of the
circuit judges elected in the 36 judicial
districts of the state are republicans.
Detroit and the other larger cities of
the state, with the Pingree feature
eliminated from the contests, show
democratic gains. Otherwise the state
shows little general political change.

THE ELECTIONS IN OHIO.
The Defeat of Mayor McKisson In
Cleveland Alleged to be Due
to Factiona1ism:

Cleveland, o., April 5.-Mayor Me-
Kisson has made the following signed
statement concerning his defeat;
1.-THE Hanna bolters and corporation
influences, through lavish use of
money, elected Farley, and defeated
the head of the republican ticket. This
is all l care to say at present.
ROBERT E. McKISSON."
Mayor-elect Farlty, in an interview,
saldi
my election simply means that the
people of Cleveland want honest gov
ernment; that they are tired of Nc
Kissonism, and are opposed to pillage
and blackmail."
Congressman Burton, who supported
McKisson, said:
"The defeat of Mr.. McKisson can be
attributed to factional fight in our
party. OF course the charges of cor
ruption had much to do with It, but
after all factionalism did the work"
"What is the cause of factionalism 2"
was asked.
"Oh, there can be but one thing, and
that is the Columbus episode Of year
ago. Mr.. McKisson made the mistake
of his life in trying to thwart the will
of his party"

were in a starving condition. AL
though Capt Abererombie and Capt.
Glenn have full instructions to send
relief to any who may be suffering
along the route of their expeditions
to the Copper river and Cooks inlet
country, Mr.. Meiklejohn has sent fur
ther instructions by telegraph to
Capt. Abererombie to take medical and
other supplies to Copper river, and
make every effort to assist the miners

NO NEWS MEANS GOOD NEWS
The War Department Not Worrying
Over Non-Heceipt of News
From Gen. Otis.

Washington, April 5.--No disap-
pointment was expressed at the war
department because Gen. Otis had
made no report during the day. 1t was
taken TO mean that conditions were
progressing WELL and that the condi-
tions indicated in Mondays dispatches
are fully convinced that the backbone
Of the insurrection is broken, and that
while there may be raids, from time
to time, by bands of maurauders, the
main body of troops will surrender.
II is said that when the Filipinos who
surrender find that they are we'll
treated and fed, that the wounded arc
cared for and food is sent to the suffer
ing, there will be less inclination 10
continue hostilities. Those who are so
treated and sent to their homes, it
is believed, will be missionaries among
their people in favor of the United
States

A SENSATIONAL WIND-UP.
The Clerk of the Colorado House
Knocked Down to Prevent Him
Spiriting n Bill Away.

Denver, Col, April 5.-The session
of the twelfth general assembly, of Col
crado, which legally terminated at
midnight, was really prolonged until
1880 a. m, the hands of the clock be-
ing turned back. d. II. Dickson, chief
clerk of the house, disappeared near
the end of the session, and it was
openly charged that he had stolen the
public utilities bill, in order to prevent
its being signed before adjournment.
Wien found, Dickson was knocked
down by a member of the house and
was dragged to the senate chamber,
where he was forced to deliver the
missing bill to the clerk.
Each house passed an antitrust bill,
but they failed to agree upon meas
ure.

Current Rumor.

Havana, April 5.-The local newspa-
pers revive the rumor that Gen. Lud-
low is soon to be transferred from
Havana to the Philippines, and that
Gen. Lee is to be made the head of
the new occidental department. Gen.
Lees appointment would be an eX-
cellent one from a political point of
view, for he has the cordial friendship
OF nearly all the elements in the pop
ulation here, and has had a chance to
gain valuable insight into the work
ings of the Cuban character.
