call to luncheon removes the necessity of go

There are several of these poverty stricken
young men in Newport this summer, and they
are much in demand. Men who dine out num-
Der less than the women, and the foreigners fill
in mighty well. They have position enough
thanks to the standing given by the legation
and they can be depended on to rise to every
occasion.
Much to his surprise a Tribune reporter ran
across an under secretary of this type in a little
fish chowder place on the waterfront the other
day. The reporter was there because he liked

Newport, r. L. July 1S-If it were not for
Newport and Narragansett and Bar Harbor
some Of the young under secretaries and at
taches of the legations and embassies at Wash
ington would have hard time getting through
the summer The small salaries which they
draw from the home governments are nearly
exhausted during the long and busy winter sea-
son at the capital, though they may practise
most rigid private economies. When summer
comes the legations move into vacation quar-
ters along the Atlantic Coast What is worse
for the underpaid youngsters, society deserts
Washington as though fleeing from the plague
and invitations to dinners and luncheons be-
come as scarce as an undisturbed street pave
ment in New-York.
Fortunate indeed is the young attache who
has made a sufficient impression to be invited
to spend the summer with some wealthy fam
lily. for such general invitations are exceedingly
scarce. Those who do not get invited have to
follow society, and Newport IS far and away
the best place for these youth, to whom din

The two important developments to-
day in the investigation of the SEN
sational abstraction of papers from

The action in the case Of Mr.. Chris
tiancy was taken at his own request.
He states that he courts the fullest
investigation. Mr.. Christiancy has
held the office of assistant attorney
general since Jan. 1. 1901, and has been
in charge of the legal affairs of the
department most Of the time since
