use From Business Houses.
Warner Stutier, superintendent OF the
street cleaning department, has submitted
a report to the District Commissioners on
the one hundred or more letters and peti-
lions received from prominent business
men, hotels. ETC., relative TO the collection
OF ashes and refuse from business estab-
lishments Of the District. The letters on
the subject include one from the Business
Mems Association. strongly urging the
Commissioners to adopt measures which
would provide such service. Mr.. Stutler
calls attention to the fact that In the fall
Of 1900 he submitted a supplemental esti-
mate covering the extension OF the ASH ana
refuse collection service TO the business
houses. The estimate was approved by the
Commissioners, but Congress failed 70 pro-
vide sufficient appropriation.
In the absence OF funds for this pur.
pose, says the superintendent, ashes ana
refuse have been removed from business
places by private parties. and the work.
therefore, Is done without any supervision
by this department, thus causing numerous
complaints of the reckless manner in which
the material in question Is collected and
hauled through the streets, Furthermore.
the material is not separated, and the mix
ture. which includes paper and other COM
bustible waste that should be taken to the
crematory, Is deposited on the public dumps
and on vacant lots, and thus becomes q
serious nuisance by reason OF the fact that
1t is blown on to the streets. and what re-
mains on the dumps is frequently set on
fire by mischievous persons after the dump
man has left for the day"
In conclusion, the superintendent says!
1.-THE appropriation for the present fiscal
year for the collection and disposal Of city
refuse was si15.O00 or So, 900 less than the
estimate submitted for the work. This lat

MUST DROP THE MACHINE
THE ATTORNEY GENERALS NOTICE
TO HIS EMPLOYEES.
Undue Prominence in Local Politics
is Naturalization Service
r. ~. CommissfOn Pleased.

The Department of Justice has sent to all
officers and employees Of the department a
circular regarding the enforcement Of the
civil service laws that is likely to create
good deal of discussion. inasmuch as in
many states marshaIs and district attor-
neys are either at the head Of the republic
can organization, or are engaged actively
In political work in their party. The cir
ct1iar has just been sent out, and refers to
section 2 of the civil service act Of Janu-
airy 16, 1853, forbiddtng any executive off,
Ger or emp1oye, among others. to solicit or
receive political contributions from any Of
ficers or employees of the United States,
and also says persons In the government
service under this department should not
act as chairnien Of political organizations,
nor make themselves unduly prominent in
local political matters.
The Attorney Generals View.
Attorney General Knox was not at the
department today, but it Is stated that
the circular was written by him for mo-
tives that he deems best. 1t is well known
that Attorney General Knox believes that
in his department especially there should
be as little of political activity as possible.
He believes that fhe dignity of the law
should be observed more fully than 1t has
been in the past and does not think that a
man can fearlessly fulfill his duties to the
government and at. the same time engage
in active party work.
Attorney GeneralaKnox. 1t is believed, has
in view some officials under his office who
are practically violating civil service laws.
and the circular he sent out Is probably
intended to reach these men. In several
southern states federal appointees exercise
the control Of patronage and are exceeding
ly active in party affairs.
Civil Service Commission Pleased.
This statement Of attitude on the part of
the Presidents legal adviser Is most graft
flying to the officials of the civil service
commission. 1t Is believed that 1t fore
casts a general expression on the part OF
the administration which will make it i'm
duct any levy, however adroit on the en-
ployes of the executive departments.
Commissioner FOulke said this morning
order will be much greater than would ap-
pear at first glance.
'It comes from the law office Of the ma
! tional government 1t is phrased in firm
vigorous terms. 1t explicitly states that
| persons in the government service under
| that department should not make them
selves unduly prominent as campaigners Of

The commission has no idea that the sub

sUPERINTENDENF BURNS REPORT.
Number of Dead I'm Wabash Wreck
Has Been Exaggerated.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, November 3O.-President
Joseph Ramsey, jr., of the Wabash still
insists that the reports giving the number
Of dead and injured in the wreck near Sem
eca. Mich. are exaggerated. His latest re-
ports from Superintendent Burns place
the number of dead at twenty-one and the
severely injured at twelve. He also stated
that many Of those reported wounded are
only bruised and scratched, and the most
of these were yesterday on their way
home.
A message from Superintendent Burns
stated that eight bodies had been taken out
of the wreck and identified, and that there
were charred fragments Of bodies repre-
senting, by the undertakers estimate,
twelve or thirteen adults and one infant.
This report also stated that Fireman Doud
was still missing.
President Ramsey gave out this list Of
identified dead:

as he naturally would, in view of her abil-

There was nothing in the relations OF
Mrs BONNIE and Ayres that either was un-

What Defense Proposes to Establish.
The defense would establish, stated the
attorney that bloody hand raised the
curtain from the inside Of Ayres' room,

the powder marks on the deceased tended
to support the contention of the defense;
that reputable physicians would testify That

THE STRIKE At PITTsBURG.
Little Change in the situation as Re
ported Today.

PITTSBURG, November 30.-There was
little change in the switchmens strike to-
day. The situation is steadily improving
on the roads and by the first of next week,
the railroad officials say, they will be in as
good shape as before the strike. Trains are
moving promptly and there is no blockade
on the Baltimore and Ohio. Pennsylvania
or Pittsburg and Lake Erie roads. Four
crews are working in the Willow Grove
yards of the Pittsburg and Western and a
large crowd of men are standing about, pre-
Sumably looking for work.
Among the striking swltchmen on the AL
legheny Valley railroad there was rumor
current this morning to the effect that the
company was willing to compromise on an
additional cent per hour and that negotia-
tons would likely be begun with this object
in view The rumor, however, could not be
verified.
All the mills between 18th street and 54th
street are shut down on account of their
inability to obtain the necessary fuel. 1T is
estimated that about 5000 men have been
thrown Idle.
