SEVERAL OFFICIALS INVOLVED.
Serious Charges Filed With the
President Against n Lawyer.

Washington, March 14.-Serlous
charges have been filed with President
Roosevelt against a practicing attor
ney at law who formerly was an Of
fetal of the postoffice department.
The charges involve certain present Of
ficials of the department, out they are
of such a nature that. at this time,
they cannot be disclosed. The charges
We're placed in the hands Of the pres1-
dent by T. c. Campbell. an attorney Of
Cincinnati, representing one or more
OF the turf investment concerns about
which. recently, there has been mucn
scandal.
1t i understood that the burden of
the charges is that the former official
involved. received 4 large sum Of money
from the turf investment concerns for
preparing an opinion declaring the
scheme OF the investment companies
TO be Legitimate and for Z promise Of
Certai1 protection to be given the COM
panies by officials.
When the matter was brought to the
presidents attention he regarded it as
SO serious that he ordered an immedi-
ate and searching investigation to be
made. All those COgnizant of the
facts are extremely reticent. but it is
known that the president has directed
that no means be left untried to de-
veIop the facts and TO punish the
guilty if the guilt of any official is
shown by the investigation.

AN INJUNCTION ISSUED.
Restraining Trolley Mems Union
from Acts Calculated to Injure
Companies Business.

Waterbury, Conn, March 14.-An i'm
portant move in relation to the trolley
mems strike. which has been in pro-
gress since January 11th was taken to-
day, when papers were issued in a tenn
porary injunction granted by Judge
Elmer Of the superior court on applica-
tion of the Connecticut Railway and
Lighting Company, restraining the
trolley mems union and most if not all
of the unions in this city, from acts cal
culated to interfere with the company's
business or it's employees. The injunc-
ton which is sweeping in it's nature
enjOins the strikers and their SympathiZ
ers from bOycOtting the plaintiff or it's
employees or any other corporations or
persons. from in any way impeding the
business of the railroad company, and
from acts of intimidation and violence
under a penalty of $4,000.
In the complaint of the Connecticut
Railway and Lighting compayn attach
ed to the writ, an attachment to the
amount of $3.50 is ordered placed on
the property Of the defendants. The
list of the defendants begins with the
name of William j. Barrett, president
of Union 1913 of the Amlgamated Asso-
citation of Street Railway employees of
America Then follows the names of
all the strikers and the names Of the
president and secretary of each of the
following unions:
POlishers and Buffers, Brass Work
ers, Sheet Metal Workers, Press Hands,
Typographical Union, Team Drivers,
Masons and Plasterers. Iron Moulders,
Drug Clerks, Electrical Workers, Bar
bers, Cigar Makers Painters and Dec
orators, and Carpenters and Joiners.
The complaint includes among the de-
PENDANTS all other associations and
persons unknown to the plaintiff and
engaged in the acts complained of,
citing them to appear before the SUI
periOr court on the first Tuesday of
April to answer to the action. The
complaint declares that men in the
plaintiffs employ We're abused and as
Saulted with clubs and revOlverS and
that some persons in sympathy with or
connected with the defendants have
| murdered Or caused to be murdered a
policeman engaged in the performance
| of his duty: and that the business Of
| the company will be ruined if the alleg-
| ed conspiracy is continued. The COM
plaint asks damages in the sum OF
| $4,000.
The injunction is made returnable
| the first Tuesday in April.

Berlin, March 14.-Germany, as soon
and the United States is ratified, will
ask both the Cuban and United States
governments for identical privileges.
1t is perceived from the full reports
sent here from Washington and Hava>
ma that German traders will be placed
at a disadvantage and the specialists
many's case in the negotiations for
new commercial treaties have talked
over the Cuban treaty with the repre-
sentatives of the embassies of the con-
tinental powers, with the result that
intimations have been made that other
governments intend also to request the
same treatment. While annoyed at
the prospect of the United States trade
having lower tariffs, in Cuba, than that
of Germany, no one supposes that even
a collective protest on the part of con-
tinental countries would cause either
the United States or Cuba to recede.
But Germany's position is to be defined
clearly, so that the United States may
not complain when Germany gives 9TH
er nations preferential treatment.
The principle which the German for
eign office lays down in entering upon
correspondence concerning new cons
mercial treaties is give and take.
The most favored nation theory is real
ly abandoned. Special conventions are
to be drawn up to fit different
situations. This principle seems
to be accepted by Russia, Aus
tria and Italy, and the trade
policies are to rest upon the reciproci-
ty idea. What is the subject of some
concern here is that should the Cuban
treaty be accepted and found to work
well, similar treaties may be arranged
by the United States with Mexico, Bra
zil and Argentina, ultimately resulting
in the United States obtaining a mo-
nopoly of all the South and Central
American markets.

Carter H. Harrison. who is a candidate

The aldermanic contest in the twenty

the day. This is the home ward of the
mayor and of Robert E. Burke, the
prominent democratic leader. The
mayor desired the denomination of
Alderman Honore Palmer, and Burke
supported John c. DallOn. Both fac
tions worked hard. but Palmer won
by a decisive majority, carrying even
the primary district in which Burke
resides. The mayoralty convention
