Chicago, June 12.--A baby may inval- idate the city, seal of Chicago and thus render illegal all the franchises and other official documents to which the seal has been attached since the seal was altered by a city ordinance passed April 15. The baby that has caused all the trouble and has driven Comptroller to seek Corporation Coun ssl Tolman's advice is the infant sleeping in a sflelp' provided by the or dinance of April 15 as the design for the seal. The whole question hinges on the posture of the infant and on tha construction of the word sleeping" :" The authorities have discovered that the sleeping infant in the shell is. seat ed upright with legs crossed and dan gling over the edge. Experts assert that no babe can slesp in such a posi- ton. .....
 In addition to the problem of whether the official business of the city has been legally approved because the new seal, is the question of whether two million dollars worth of bonds to be issued by the comptroller in October will be worthles if they bear the new impress sion

 Saturday, in the care of a keeper, he came to Sandy Hook to see his mother and remain over Sunday. Yesterday afternoon while taking a walk with the. keeper they came to a barbed wire fence. Hawley lifted one of the wires and invited the keeper to step through When the latter did so he found hinn- self on the wrong side of the fence with Hawley disappearing in piece of woods on the other side of the lot. Searching parties have been all over. the woods and highways in that sec- tion since HaWley's disappearance but have not succeeded in finding any trace of him. HaWley is about thirty years old.

 Washington, June 12.-A thorough enforcement of the anti-lottery law is urged on postmasters and all other postal employees in general order pro- mulgated to-day by Gen. eral Cortelyou. It calls on all employees to examine mail matter, especially pub lications, with the greatest care con- .sistent with prompt transmission and delivery. and to withdraw or exclude all such relating to lotteries and like enterprises. Many postmasters, the order adds, have been found negligent in this regard, as well as in the en- forcement of fraud orders against lot- teries in foreign countries. The order says that the terms of the law bar endless chain" enterprises, so-called gift concerts or similar enterprises offering prizes dependent on lot or chance, including guessing or "esti- mating contests for prizes, as well as drawings and rallies of every kind. whether general or local, for money or otherwise. for private gain or in aid of charitable, educational or religious ob- jects Publications, circulars, cards or pamphlets containing advertisements or other information relating to such en- terprises are required to be withdrawn from the mails.

AXE FALLS IN QUAKER CITY
ORDER FOR DISMISSAL OF sEV-
 ENTY-NINE EMPLOYES.

sixty-five of Them in the Bureau of
 City Property aud Fourteen in the
 Electrical Burenu-AlI Can be Spared
 and s41.OoO Year saved-Resigna-
 tion of n Chief Clerk Asked.
 Philadelphia, June 12.-The principal development in the local political situa- tion to-day were the resignation of Samuel Salter, as assistant to the chief clerk in the office of the county com nissioners and the issuing of an order for the dismissal on Wednesday of 65 employees in the bureau of city proper- ty and II in the electrical bureau. Prob- ably the most interesting development was the resignation of Salter, who some years ago after being a fugitive from justice for about a year. returned to this city and was acquitted of the stuffing of a ballot box. In his resigna- ton, which came as a surprise to the citizens of the city, Salter stated that he intended to go into business.
 After Salters acqufttal city councils created the position of assistant to the chief clerk of the county commissioners and Salter was appointed to the place at a salary of $2,OOO a year.
 S EFha a,,dn,, er,, 4i..r five men from the bureau of city prop- erty was not unexpected. The mayor had issued an order that all employees not needed should be dirnissed. After an Investigation of his bureau George Pierie, chief of the bureau, said that the dismissal of these men would not cripple the bureau.
 They were not needed, nor were they ever needed" he said. The men to be dismissed are foresters, carpen- ters, painters, plumbers, bricklayers and laborers. Their dismissal will mean a saving to the city of more than $41,000 a year.
 Mayor Weaver has another contest with councils. This time it is over the granting to the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company of franchises to oper- ate surface cars on an additional 10 miles of street without the city receiv- ing any compensation. The bills grant ing the franchises were passed and ve- toed by the mayor. On the day the gas lease passed the councils the bills were passed over the mayors veto. After winning the gas lease fight the mayor had bills introduced in the coun- cils repeating the franchise bills. The repeal will be considered by the coun- cils committee on street railways to- morrow. The street railway company is making a fight against the repealers.
