Mothers French Maid.

Pittsburg, May 22.-John Alston
Moorhead son of John Moorhead, ir.,
millionaire iron manufactures and
head of what is declared to be the
first family of Pittsburg, has startled
high society in this city by eloping
with his mothers French maid, pret-

His plunge into matrimony has
caused all the more astonishment be-
cause he has established something of
a reputation as woman hater by Civ
ing the cold shoulder to the bellies OF
Pittsburg, New York and Chicago, for
the family is well known in those
places.
As a result of his romance the
young man has been disinherited by

finding enough to eat for two will now
come upon him.
His principal achievements have
been scored as a football player on the
Yale team, and in the steeplechases.

AN UNEXPECTED REsULH r.
THE SECRECY OF SOME OF 81
Gle SANS CONSULAR REPRE-
sENTATIVEs is THE REDUc-
TloN OF THEIR SALARIES.

Washington, May 22.--One of the
unexpected results of the consular re-
organization act, now being placed in
operation, is the discontinue of some
consular officers who have been con-
cealing the actual amount of the un-
official fees of their offices.
The practice was not dishonest In
one sense for. the consuls are in many
cases permitted to retain all such fees.
But for the sake of the records of the
department and in order to enable the
ofticialg to know the state of busi-
ness of the consulates it was required
that all such fees should be accounted
for. Some consuls feared that to pub
lish the amount of the fees they re-
ceived would make their offices too at
tractive to office seekers, so they fail
ed to make full returns. Their pun
ishment came when congress passed
the reorganization act on a basis of
substitution of lump salaries for the
combined salary and fee system of
compensation.
There was no intention of reducing
the compensation of many of the con-
suls but 1t has naturally followed that
the consuls who failed to return their
full fees have suffered substantial
reduction
