John L. O'Brien Has a Hearing in San
Francisco Today

\ telegram was received al police head
quarters this morning from Detective Helan
telling of his arrival in San Francisco at
G:1J last night to look after the case of
John Lawrence O. Brien. Mr.. Frank Hume
the wholesale grocer from whom O'Br'en
Is alleged to have taken more than 5000.
was a caller at headquarters shortly after
the receipt of the telegram. Detective He
han gave the information that O'Brien is
out on $1,000 security, and that he was rec
ognized for a hearing today.
Whether the hearing is to be upon the
application for his return to this city or
upon the writ of habeas corpus the detec-
tive did not state. If it is upon the for
mer the hearing will be before a United
States commissioner. and if upon the latter
the writ will be heard by the judge of one
of the state courts. The release of o. Brien
upon such heavy bond gives the officers the
impression that the SO mentioned in a for
mer telegram was not all the money he
had at his command. 1t is expected that
the result of today's proceedings VIII be
known at the local headquarters tomorrow
as Acting Captain Carter expects Detective
Helan TO keep him advised of everything
that Is done in the case.

FADES ON EXPOSURE.
Ink on Valuable Papers Will Not

A discovery has been made in the patent
office that many valuable documents have
been written or printed in ink which does

condition may prove very embarrassing to
the bureau, but the indications now are
that the substance of all such papers has
either been reprinted or can be copied in
abundant time to prevent any confusion of
Inc files.
ents, F. l. Allen, has caused to be issued
anew the following general order, amended
by the addition OF the two paragraphs,
which follow in the form of order No.

Order No. 3T-All applications, commu-
nications and other instruments in writ
ing or print, which should properly consti-
tute permanent record in this office, must

HEBREW CHARITIES.
An Appeal for Aid Issued by the Presi-

The United Hebrew Charities of Wash

through l. l.. Blount, the president which
says:
Never in the history of the Jewish chart
ties of our city has there been greater
demand for aid, assistance and support
than this present season. Heretofore we
have been In fairly good condition to care
for all those who were unfortunate and in
distress. but at this present juncture the
conditions have been very much aggravated
and the responses to our needs by no means
adequate, or are they reaSSuring for the
future. The advance in fuel and groceries
makes 1t absolutely necessary for the
friends and supporters of the United He
brew Charities to contribute not only what
they have heretofore done. but to double
their contribution. We have never ap-
pealed in vain to our people, and have every
confidence that they will respond with the
same promptitude and liberality as here

ON WASTE OF COAL.
A Housekeeper Tells Of Economical
Ways to Use It.

From the New York Tribune.
How many men or women know the
amount of coal really suffic ient to keep a
good fire in crate, furnace or stove?" asked
an experienced housewife Mot one in a
hundred. Yet this question of supplies
ought to be one of the first things learned
in domestic management. Half a ton OF
nut coal is ample to keep fire night and day
in No. kitchen range for month in
winter. From three-eighths to one-quarter
of a ton is all that should be used in a fall
or spring month, and this does not mean
poor, stunted fires. 1t is enough for all
more means ignorant waste.
"A cylinder stove heating a room sixteen
feet square and ten feet in height will cali
for the same amount of larger coal. When
strong fire is needed, in cold weather, a
mixture of egg and nut coal Is good in
range or close parlor stove, using the finer
coal to start the morning fire and egg coal

furnace, keeping the ordinary ten-room
house comfortable night and day in all
weather, can be run with an average of
one ton of hard coal a month the season
through, which means less than ton for
the milder months, and something more in
bitter midwinter. Half cord of split
kindling In six-inch lengths will be enough
for six months of cold weather with good
usage.
This looks impossible to the easy-going
housekeeper, whose cook throws huge

Result of Second Trial in Case of Al
legged Shortage.

A verdict in favor of the United States

interest from January 8, 1889, was rendered
by jury in Circuit Court No 2 this after
noon in the case of the United States
against Ewing and others, which has been
on hearing for the past ten days. The pro-
ceedings were originally instituted against

NJ. B. Harris. Mr.. Harris died recently,
and the suit was discontinued as to him,
leaving James NJ Ewing and Nathan Golf
as the defendants in the case.

1882, James NJ. Ewing, who had been ap-
pointed disbursing clerk of the Department
of Justice. entered into a bond to the
United States in the sum of $4,000, and
Ewin, Nathan Golf and Charles NJ B. Har-
ris signed the bond as sureties, the condi-
ton being that Ewing should faithfully
keep safely and disburse and pay out ac-
cording to law all sums of public money
placed or coming into his hands. as dis
bursting officer of the Department of JUS
tice.
1t was alleged that Ewing made default
in the sum of s9303.7O, and upon failure to
pay over this amount to the government
suit was instituted against him and his
sureties January 8. 1889, to recover the
amount of the shortage, with interest
The case was tried once before and a
verdict was reported in favor of the United
States for the amount claimed. The case
was taken TO the Court of Appeals by the
defendants. which court reversed the de-
cision of the Supreme Court of the District
on certain points of law raised during the
trial, and remanded the cause to the Su-
preme Court of the District for new trial
which ended this afternoon.
Attorneys Andrew B. Duvall and A. Left
witch Sinclair appeared for the United
States. while the defendants were repre-
sented by Attorney A. S. Worthington.

posing the healths of Emperor William and
President Roosevelt, spoke Of the en-
peror's great admiration of the magnii-
cent development of the United States: he
commended the vigor with which President

nation after being called suddenly to their
administration, and praised Mr.. Whites
unusually meritorious services to his ccun-
try abroad
Mr.. White said that during the life and
death struggle of the American Union Ger
many was the one nation which through
out all classes of society, took the side OF
the Union, while everywhere else in Europe
hostile feelings were expressed and maiig-
nant prophecies were made.
Speaking of the national characteristics OF
her countrymen. Mr.. White said that while
the United states, on a superficial view. ap-
peared to be the most materialistic of ma.
tions, the people of America were among
those most powerfully swayed by beliefs
and ideals In sentiment.
He traced the influence of ideals in politi-
cal struggles In the United States and said
he knew no other country where money
was less worshiped as money. Mr. White
alluded to the gifts made in America dur
ing the last year to colleges, libraries and
universities. which. he said, amounted to
seven millions of dollars.
Referring to Americas love of peace, the
former ambassador said:

The people of the state have spoken, that is, those of them who cared to speak got around to the voting places yesterday and they buried the pro- posed new constitution so deep that it will be hard for Donald T. Warner ct al 10 dig it up again. The Hartford COurant aptly expressed it this morn ing when it said that lightning struck in more places than one yesterday and the new constitution did not escape. It was not heavy vote by any means, but those who did care to go to the trouble of casting a ballot were far in the majority against the proposed new medley of laws. It was fitting re- buke to the one county which seemed to control the convention, rebuke made more emphatic by the vote of the little towns themselves. The minority in that convention can to-day feel a satisfaction that the weeks of hard work fighting for the peoples rights were productive of good results
 Below are given the returns from 164 towns, the towns of Union, Marl- borough, Ledyard and Killingworth not having reported. The total vote cast against the constitution was 2O- S73 and in favor of it 1O.333, major tty of 10,540.
