CoMMIsSARY PRIVILEGES.
Civil Employees in the Philippines to
Receive Them.


WASHINGTON, November 2.-Infor-
nation received by the civil service
commission today is to the effect that.
by an act just passed by the civil COM
mission of the Philippines, all employees
OF the 1nsular and provincial govern
ments who are stationed outside of the
CITY OF Manila will receive commissary
privileges. Commissary stores will be
sold at an increase of 20 per cent of
the actual cost in order to defray the
expenses of transportation, etc. The
headquarters and disbursing stores will
De located in Manila and the chief of
constabulary will be in charge
This is perhaps the most important
act OF the Philippine commission. Six
thousand employees of the government
are penehted. Only a short time ago
more than LOO school teachers who
are in the Philippines held a meeting
ana passed resolutions asking that
they be brought back TO this country.
The cause of their grievance was that
they were led to believe, so they claim
cd that they would be granted supplies
by the government at a slight advance
above the actual cost and that the
government would erect living build
ings that would be rented to the teach
ers at a nominal cost.
The government did not do this and
the teachers found that the cost of liv-
ing was so great that it was impossible
to get ahead The act of the commits
sion win have a tendency to create a
good feeling on the part of those who
are employed in the Philippines and
viii likely be the means of sending to
the new possessions persons who are
thoroughly capable of performing the
work.

PRESIDENT LYNN ARRESTED

Wednesday evening Attorney -Genera
Herbert Fl. Ward made another move in
the investigation Of the Levy Court scan
dal in this county, when John Lynn,
president Of the Levy Court, was arrested
on two warrants. The first charged him
with the larceny of $56, money of the
county, on October I'd, 1900, and the
second with having, on October 10th
1900, secured $3.50 under false pretenses.
Justice Hollis held Lynn under $4,000
bail in each case for preliminary hear
ing on Saturday morning. Walter Fl.
Hayes appeared for Lynn. The offenses
alleged were committed before Lynn be-
came president of the Levy Court, but
while he was a,member of the body. II
is alleged that Lynn put in bills for work
done on Marshallton bridge when the
man did no work on the bridge.
This is the second member of the old
Levy Court arrested in connection with
the county scandals. Henry NJ. White,
who was arrested Tuesday is a Democrat,
and Lynn, who was arrested Wednesday
is a Republican. The warrants were
sworn out by State Detective James P.
Rattledge at the direction of Attorney
General Ward, who, with his deputy and
the Citizens Association, has been max
ing the investigation.

This week that Attorney General

cation into the acts Of the Levy
Court pastand present. Harry A.
White a former CommissioAer,
and John Lynn, the President q
the Levy Court, we're arrestedon
warrents sworn out by the State
Detective, charging them with
stealing from the county. This
is a serious charge, and conyic-
tion carries with it term in the
county workhouse and sundry
other inconvenient and uncom-
Portable attachments. It is not
our desire to judge the case IN
advance, but we have had conf
dence in Mr.. Ward all along, and
we still have confidence.
For a long time this county has
been robbed and cheated. Now
it seems probable that the day OF
retribution is at hand. "The

service at Wesley NJ. E. Church Tuesday
night. They were greeted by large au.

quite little time in explaining the OBJ

music is very attractive feature Of
every service. They all play on different
kinks of musical instruments and the
singing of the Jones Sisters is very fine.
Adjutant Kemp is an interesting and inn

are refined people. Thus far they are
making fayora bic impression and the
indications are that they will be great

eoRnAx SURE OF rHr SENATE

The efforts Of the anti-Gorman news
papers and few of the old leaders Of
the Independents to stir up a fight in
the Legislature against German will
be futile. When Governor Smith called
the Legislature in extra session to pass
the Ballot law to help German every
man nominated for the Legislature was
secretly pledged to support him for Sena-
tor. Although the Democratic majority
in the House is email, it is enough to kill
off any contests over seats in the Legisla-
ture which Republicans may be disposed
to make. The Courts, under the Law,
have nothing to do with such contests.
The Republican leaders alIege fraud
baising their claims mainly upon the
number Of Republican votes they say
have been thrown out as defective.

BERLIN SUFFERS

The pretty town of Berlin,
Worcester County; Maryland,
was visited by serious fire on
Tuesday morning last, causing a
damage of about $4,000 with
only 500 Of insurance This
IS another lesson as to the folly
of towns Of this class not pro-
viding adequate protection n
against fire by system of water
works. The net loss in this one
FIRE is more than sufficient to pay
the first cost of water plant.
The town authorities are now
considering the question. We
would suggest that they act
promptly while the lesson is
fresh.
