Mr.. Madison Davis, assistant city post
master, has advised the District Commits
sioners that the Post Office Department
has ordered him to establish the free de-
livery or letter carrier service at Brook
land, D. c.. on the LIST proximo AS In con-
nection with this service it will be, states

ing Of houses in Brookland Is in course OF

Protest Against the COurpA- Of the
Treasury Department. ga
The negotiations concerning the construc-
ton to be placed on certain features Of the
reciprocity agreement with France have
now advanced to a point where the French
authorities have deemed 1t necessary to
protest against what they regard as the
arbitrary course of the Treasury Depart
ment in reopening an issue which had pre-
viously been aoJudicated by the American
courts. The reciprocity agreement was en-
tered into and proclaimed by the President
about year ago. and granted certain re-
duction of duties on still wines, brandies
and other articles in return for equivalent
reductions of duties on certain American
imports into France. The French version
of the treaty, which was executed along
"lfqueurs." covering a number Of cordials
and like products brought to this country.
ne Treasury Department held, however
that under the reciprocity clause of the
Dingley tariff law ''liqueurs could not be
made the subject of reciprocity concessions.
The matter was taken into the courts on a
test case, where 1t was decided In favor of
the French authorities. The decision was
OF the Attorney General was accepted.
Recently, however. the Swiss government
has put in a claim, under its favored ma
ton clause, for the same reduction on
hqueurs as were given to France. This
has led the Treasury Department to again
make an effort to oppose the reduction of
duty on this class of articles. From the
French standpoint. however. the matter is
not only one of treaty. but the construction
OF that treaty has been adjudicated by the
American courts, and that adjudication ac-
cepted. This French view of the situation
mas now been brought to the attention of
the state Department, with a view of hav-
ing the matter stand as it has been decided
by the courts.

COL. MORGAN FOR MCKINLEY.
Influential Missouri Democrat Quits
the Bryan Procession.

the Bryan Procession.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CHICAGO. ILL.,. October T.-R c.
Kerens, the republican national committee
man from Missouri, received information
from Joplin today that has been more than
ordinarily pleasing to him.
1t is that Colonel Chas. H. Morgan, who
was in the Forty-fourth, Forty-fifth. Forty
eighth and Fffty-third Congresses as
democrat. has come out in a public letter
for the entire republican ticket.
For thirty years he has been demo-
cratic leader in the southwestern part OF
the state, and his action is especially graft
flying to the supporters of the republican
party.
Colonel Morgan was the lieutenant colonel
of Missouri regiment during the war with
Spain, and he saw active service in Cuba.
He has changed his politics on account OF
the action of Bryan in opposing expansion:
Il am an expansionist' he said, land l
believe in keeping the flag planted where
ever 1t is once raised. Mr.. Bryan's idea Is
not the democratic idea. AS Americans we
should support our men who are fighting
our battles in the Philippines.
Il was in Congress with President NC
Kinley, and I have for him the highest per-
sonal regard. No better man ever lived. In
his hands the country Is safe.
Col. Morgan has been highly honored 'by
the democratic party. During the civil war
when a very young man he served IN WIS
consin regiment and rose from private TO
captain. He went to Missouri after COM
pleting a course of law and for four years
was prosecuting attorney of Barton county.
He was a member Of the Missouri legisla-
ture in 1S12-73, and, besides serving eight
years in Congress, democratic elector at
tended the national conventions Of his old
party,

THE QUALITY OF GAS.
Reports Made to the COmmfs toners
by Inspector Ford.

Reports Made to the Commissioners
by Inspector Ford.
According to the reports as to the quality
of the gas supplied by the two local COM
panies made daily to the District Commits
sioners by the United States inspector of
gas and meters, DR.. S. Calvert Ford, it
would seem that during the past ten days,
at least, the candlepower Of that furnished
by the Georgetown Gas Light Company
has been superior to that provided by the
Washington Gas Light Company. The
highest candlepower during this period was
found by the inspector in the gas Of the
Georgetown company, 3O.1. on the 18th in
slant, while the highest candlepower
reached by the Washington company dur
ing that time was 27.36, the oath instant,
at what Is known as its northwest station.
This same day, however the oath instant,
the gas at the Washington company s south
east station registered candlepower of
being below the standard required by law,
%. Yesterday the southeast station showed
24.55. On the 18th instant the highest
candlepower of the Washington company
was 1888, and that Of the Georgetown COM
pany .33; 18th the maximum figures Of the
two companies WERE respectively, 269S and
3041; 18th, HO2 and 27.53; Goth, 1856 and
29S; 21st, no report; I'D. PIP and 2S.41;
sd. 1855 and 29.O7; oath, H.36 and 1901; 9th.
27.O6 and 2s.32, and 26th, 26 40 and 2S.32.
AS stated above, comparison OF these
1RureS Will snow tQdI the CdnulepOWeT OIL
the gas furnished by the Georgetown COM
pany averaged much higher than that OF
its Washington competitor, and it will be
further observed that the lowest candle
power of the former, 27.53 was just II
better than the highest reported to have
| been attained by the Washington plant
during this period. 27.36. 1t is understood
that about the same rate of difference has
been the rule for some time. All this nat
urally leads Washington consumers to ask
the Commissioners: If the Georgetown
Gas Light Company can manufacture gas
showing so much greater candlepower,
why cannot why does not the Wash
ington Gas Light Company supply gas of
as high power?
1t is expected that Mr.. Macfarland will
inquire whether a gas company doing bus
mess in the District, and shown by official
reports to have failed on one or more oc-
casions to furnish gas of the power and
quality required by law, has ever been
proceeded against. And II not. why not?
1t is also believed that the Commissioner
and his associates will ask If the naphtha-
.ne which the inspector reports forms in
the inlets and outlets of meters, and there
by obstructs the flow Of gas, is not evidence
that its quality Is not that required by law.
1t is stated that the Commissioners are
still in daily receipt of complaints from
consumers of the poor quality and power
of gas furnished them, which complaints
are being forwarded to the inspector for
investigation and report.

FOOT BALL IN CHICAGO.
Unfversities of Michigan and Illinois
the Contestants.

CHICAGO. October 27.-The foot ball
teams of the Universities Of Michigan and
Illinois. one composed mostly Of heavy but
untried men, the other of comparatively
light but experienced veterans, played on
Marshall field this afternoon. The game
was the first important one Of the struggle
for the western championship, and despite
the fact that the game was played on neu-
trail grounds, the student bodies of the two
'varsites were present almost en- masse.
Both teams had been coached in Prince
ton formations, Michigan by Riff Lea
and Illinois by Fred Smith and Holt the
veteran Tiger linesman.
Both teams of late had shown such ex-
cellent form on the defensive that. al
though Michigan by reason of superior
weight and better physical condition was
slight favorite, no one expected a large
score and many believed that Mathews
kicking for Illinois would decide the game
in favor of the Illinois team. Michigan, al
ways slow in developing, had been carefully
coached all week to obviate the one great
weakness of the team, fumbling, and it
was confidently asserted before the game
that this had been accomplished.
The teams lined up as follows:

We are not afraid of Uncle Sans uniform
not at all. The Malay bandits and Chi

not. Mr.. Bryan says you haven't your
share of prosperity. The country as a
whole certainly has prospered. In 1893 none
of you were prosperous. Today there is a
high average Of prosperity and your new
iron works here is proof of it."
