Trouble.
CIVIL SERVICE CRIMES
Charges That Letter Carriers
Have Been Prosecuted for
Failure to Pay Up for
the G. o. P.

Notwithstanding the greatest secrecy
maintained among the officials, it has
leaked out why Government inspectors
are investigating the affairs of the Post
Qffaces ]sy order or the Post Office Depart
ment at Washington. In a sentence it
is charged that Assistant Postmaster Ed
ward w. Woolley transferred letter car
riers to routes as inconvenient as possi-
BILE because they refused to be assessed
for political purposes. This. if it be
proved, will mean the removal of the
Assistant Postmaster.
1t appears that a postmtn named Brown
when requested to give some contribution
to the Republican campaign fund, fatty
refused. He was a Democrat, he is re-
ported to have said, and even if he had
been a Republican he could not afford to
give any money. This statement, so it is
alleged, found it's way to Mr.. Woolley 5
ears. and not long afterwards Brown,
who lived near his route, had that chang
ed to one at the opposite end of the city,
causing him great Inconvenience and ex-
pense. He spoke to ex-Tax Commissioner
Richard Lahey and asked him to inter-
cede in his behalf The story goes that
Mr.. Lahey induced Colonel John j. Tof-
fey and other well known Republicans to
accompany him on his mission to Mr..
Woolley When the objects of the visit
was explained to the latter he is alleged
TO have emphatically refused to restore
Brown to his old route and to the visi-
tors stated the reason that Brown and
others wouldn't pay his assessments.
When this was told to Brown by Mr..
Lahey, the former requested the latter
to make an affidavit as to the facts and
Mr.. Lahey did so. 1t was sent to the
Postmaster General by Brown in his com
plant. Mr.. Lahey, it is said, regretted
his action in giving an affidavit and
wrote to Washington asking that it
should be returned to him. Colonel Tof-
fey was also asked to embody, in an
affidavit the result, of the conversation
with Mr.. Woolley, but he declined, say
ing that he didn't desire to mix up in the
discussion.
In consequence therefore of Browns 9
complaint, the department sent down In
spectors Y NJ Swift of Boston, D. J..
Sinclair of Omaha and c. NJ Waters, who
have for lne past few days had a busy
time of it examining letter carriers and
others
Mr.. Woolley was seen in the Post Office
this afternoon and told News repres-
entative he declined to say a word about
the inquiry.
Postmaster Wanser, too. was asked if
the inspectors were investigating the
charges and he replied that they were
conducting the customary department in
vestigation of books and papers in the
Office
..They are not investigating me, I can
assure you,' said Mr.. Wanser.
Colonel Toffey and Mr.. Lahey could not
be seen; they were both out of town.

Apropos of the amount of coke, wood
and oil used in Paris. says the Paris
Messenger" one OF our contemporary
les has been making some Inquiries into
this subject, and the following figures
supplied by the Hotel de Vile, may be
of interest. Paris burns annually 1500-
vons n 400 n d SACKS Of ehaIbon 1oas ~ lvVvo
charcoal--for cooking; 2S5.00 cubic metres
OF fagots Ihe Octroi duties on the wood
amount to 100000 francs; the charcoal
brings in 100000 francs, and the Octroi
duties on the coke and oil amount to i, :
600, 600 francs. Add to this the amount Of
coal and the Oetroi duties paid on it, and
then we get some idea of not only what
Paris consumes, but what the Parisians
pay in the shape of Octroi duties for such
necessaries as coal, coke. wood, charcoal
and oil.

SUGAR

STEEL

New York. March 2s.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
Sheffield received little comfort from
the answer of the Chancellor Of the
Exchequer to a question whether the
American Steel trust would be broken
by import duties. Sir Michael Hicks
Beach made the steretyped reply that
there could no official forecasts in ad-
vance of the budget speech.
He had dealt In a similar way with
inquiries respecting sugar and other
articles menaced with taxation but 1t is
an easy inference that steel would not
be favored II free trade principles were
to be abandoned for the sake of raising
fresh revenues.
Agricultural products will naturally
have the old Torys preference II tariff
revision for revenue purposes is indis-
pensable. 1t Is probable, however, that
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach will borrow
heavily instead Of upsetting the free
trade system and giving the Liberals
an issue on which all factions can
unite.
Sugar offers compromise, since
the duties will be strictly for revenue
and no special industry will be benefit
ed by them, except possibly the refining
interest. Steel duties would be protec-

IRON

st. Petersburg, March ga circular
issued by the Minister Of the Interior
blames the police for not crushing the
demonstrations at the outset by the
dispersion of gathering crowds.
It is said the police must learn where
and when demonstration are planned
and mass their force there. Above all,
order must be restored at any cost and
the authorities must not fear to use
the necessary force and severity. The
military, the circular further says, can
be called upon when firing is necessary
and the cavalry may be summoned
upon any occasion to clear the streets.

New York, March 19.-The sugar
war is over, and the sworn enemies Of
the trust have been taken into camp,
forced to smoke the pipe Of peace and
accept Mr.. Havemeyer's terms
The unconditional surrender OF the
Arbuckles, Mollenhauers, Doeschers
and the National refneries was
brought about by the trust securing
control OF the entire cooperage bust
ness OF the country. Without barrels,
the opponents of the trust were help
less. They could make sugar, but they
could not dispose of 1t.
Now that the trust is without any
opposition 1t is probable that the price
OF sugar will go up.
AS far as the general public is con-
cerned, however, there has been no
compromise, and the war Is still on
The fight for the past two months,
though, has certainly been sham one,
but perhaps innocent stockholders
have been properly fooled and are still
being fooled. Stocks have been Jug
gled, as before, to the benefit of Mr..
Havemeyer and other prominent sugar
magnates. While controlling absolute
ly the output of the former opposition
to believe that its enemies were still
powerful enough and were fighting as
hard as before,
About two months ago the big coop
erage concern of Paul Weidman, the
Brooklyn brewer, was transferred to
l.. NJ. Palmer, head of the Brooklyn
Cooperage Company, for nominal
consideration. The actual price paid
was not made public, nor will It be.

business had no particular significance

ness, They knew that the Brooklyn

The FAKE SUGAR WAR
AND HOW 1T ENDED

Cooperage Company was owned and
operated absolutely by the sugar trust,
and that l.. NJ. Palmer, its president,
was vice president of the American
Sugar Refining Company.
Weidman had his barrels in the open
market, and they could be bought by
the trust as well as by its enemies. The
Arbuckles, Mollenhauers, Doeschers
and National refineries were entirely
dependent on the Weidman cooperage
for their barrels. They could not buy
them in sufficient quantities anywhere
else in the country.
So 1t will be seen that by monopoliz-
ing the sugar-barrel industry the trust
had the situation well in hand and was
in a position to dictate terms to its
rivals.
The Weidman cooperage was imme-
diately shut down, the machinery being
moved to the Brooklyn concern, while
the buildings are now being used as a
warehouse by the trust.
But there has been no DEAL" say
the Havemeyers and the Arbuckles.
But here is list OF the number Of
barrels supplied by the trust daily to
Its supposed enemies, and 1t is about
the average for the past two months:
Barrels.
ArDuckles .............. z,oOO
Mollenhauers ............. 5000
National Company ........ 5000
These figures also represent the
amount Of sugar refined at each Of the
houses.
Among the knowing ones In Wall
street this fight between the sugar
kings has been looked upon as an opera
bouffe warfare, waged In order to
Brighten innocent stockholders. Dur
ing the early part of the conflict $751;
100000 Of stock was forced down from
$40 to sos per share, causing a loss
to the stockholders of sl2 100000. This
could at any time be forced up to 5000
a share and make for some one or more
men a profit OF s22 100000.
The public benefited by 1t, getting
cheaper sugar and coffee,

The national conference of charities
and corrections, at Washington, D. c..
discussing the care of the feeble
minded and epileptics, disclosed some
interesting statistics concerning the
so-called degenerates.
DR.. w. M. Palglase superintendent
of the Michigan home for the feeble
minded and epileptics at La Peer,
Mich, in a report. contended that a
large number of the criminal, inebri-
ate and other offenders are really con-
genial imbeciles, and lifelong deten-
ton of all detectives has now become
a permanent policy at all the newer
institutions. DR.. Arthur G. Rogers,
superintendent of the Minnesota
school for the feeble minded at Fari-
bault, made an earnest plea for legal
restrictions on marriage of "the un-
fit" as an important factor in solv-
ing the problem of the degenerate
Numerous subjects were discussed at
separate meetings. G. D. Hillies of
Lancaster. Ohio, reporting on juven-
lie deliquents, said that at the close
of the century there were in the re-
formatories of the country, exclusive
of the District of Columbia, Montana
and Utah, 1880 boys and from the
same institutions. except Nebraska,

society 1913 900 boys whose careers
have been useful, 5000 have relapsed

The Plasterers' union in Butte met

mand Saturday half holiday with

Plasters in Butte receive seven dol
lars per day. The demand for the
Saturday half holiday carries with it
no deduction of half days pay. In
other words, the members of the

days for seven dollars, or at the rate
of $14 per day, $S4 per week, or 81,
O32 per year. Some of the doctors
lawyers, bankers and business men
of Butte should learn the plasterers
trade. It's good thing. This trades
union business is likely to furnish a
solution for the overcrowding of the
professions. A plasterer works hard
but he gets good pay-in Butte. 1t is
far better to be prosperous plaster
err than an impecunious lawyer. doc
tor or clergyman, many of whom
would regard the assurance of the
half of 81 per diem as affluence.
