Of this number 1,4ft were colored and 70S whtt». These figure will serve to correct an erroneous impression that the hospital Is designed for any special class. The management, the report says, has used erary effort to make it a desirable place for all unfortunate sick who may seek admission. One hundred-and eighty six ex-soldiers were admitted and treated during the year. They eaaw to Washington from all parti of the country to look after pensions, and becoming aiok were admitted, many of them upon the recommendation of the commissioner of pensions. Dr. Purvis comments as follows upon the class of patients treated There wan 117 cases of confinement, an increase of US over last year. "As I have reported etfoh year," remarks the doctor, "nearly all these cases are colored. I deem it my duty, as a simple act of justice, to anticipate any unfavorable comment that may be made against the unfortunates, for such they are. My contact with these people has been such as to enable me to say a good word f&r them. They are not bad women. They belong to the jaboring class—are generally house servants who are ignorant of the laws governing good society. They are without education, and have never been surrounded by a healthy moral lnfiuence."And Liable to Get a Poll at it If SEEKING TO KNOW THE POLITICS OF DEPARTMENT EMPLOYES. A LARGE MASS MEETING ADQRESSED* BY PROFE88OR8 AND CLERGYMEN. A Sensational Story From The St. New York, Oct. 2.—The people of Breslau, It I., are greatly excited over a brutal outrage committed by a negro upon Clara Lierow, aged IS, while the was returning from school at Babylon to her father's residence at Breslau. The girl was aooompanied part of the way home by some of her little girl friends. Just after they left her and xLarted back toward Babylon a negro tramp passed them, and it is supposed umU he islbe one who attacked Clara, as he could easily have overtaken her on the road. Some hours later a mm driving along the turnpike saw the girl lying beside the road apparently, dead. He took her in his wagon to the iware it farm house, where she revived under medical treatment, and was Able to say that a black man had attacked her She then relapaed into unconsciousness, and is In a critical oondition, having had several convulsions. The girl's family are much respected people, and as soon aa the facts became known large numbers of men gathered, and are now searching in the woods for the negro who committed the crima. They have a good description of him from the children who passsd him on the road. It is evident from marks on the victim's throat aad the condition of her clothing that she was ehoked into sabmission, and had struggled bravely against her assailant She was an unusually bright girl, and was sent to the high school at Babylon, four miles away, because she was too far advanced in stadias for the local school.

St. Paui., Oct. 2.—The Globe to-day publl.-h -K tlie detail* of a startling crime, of which the following is a synopsis: Over twelve months have now elapsed since Emery A. Storrs went from Chicago to Ottawa, Ills., to present the case of Joseph C. Mackin, the convicted ballot box stuffer and perjurer, to the supreme court of the state. At that place the brilliant lawyer, the gneat advocate, the profound jurist and the shrewd politician was foully and deliberately assassinated.'1 hen he went to Ottawa, Ills., on Sept 8 to make an argument before the supreme court, and among those who lingered about him during his leisure and convivial moments were two men who had their work cot oat for them in advance. There was to be no hurry, bat the job was to be done. Liquor and cigars abounded, but in the liquor there was an Insidious poison, which piled up in the system of the doomed man until on that fatal Friday it clutched his vitals and landed him a corpse in his bed at the hotel early on Saturday morning, Sept IS. The audience was about equally made up of business men and workingmen. Counsellor A. A. White called the meeting to order and introdwM Rev. John W. Kraemnr as chairman. The reverend gentleman ■»"'* a brief address in which be commended the workingmen for taking part in politic*. They had many evils to complain of and the day had come when modern civilisation should listen to their complaints. They were the real taxpayers and therefore they had a right to say who should govern them. They had selected Henry George, a moral hero, for mayor, aqd the meeting had been called to ratify their choice. Cheers greeted this. The first speaker, the Rev. R. Heber Newton, rector of All Souls' church, received a cordial greeting. He said: "We are all in earoset We are not playing politics. We Mr. Storm both smoked to excess and drank freely during the later days of his life.Tte was like a tired racer, .whose willing Brain but flagging Umbs demand the whip and the spur. He worked night and day. He chased reluctant judges nil over the state of Illinois and forced them by the power of his Intellect, and the i-ogoncy of his reasoning to do his bidding. His master mind could wrest a decision from the supreme court at the United States, and, had he lived, it is probable that Joseph C. Macldn would to-day have bean a power in Chicago politics instead of a convict, wearing the stripes of shame and degradation at the Joliet penitentiary. It was "paralysis of the heart" which cut short, at tho comparatively early age of 50 yeans, one of the ablest men the American bar has ever seen brighten its annals. DIVIDED MIBERNIAN8.

The Treasury Unable to Supply the Greet Chioaqo, Oct a.—For some time put differences of a serious and somewhat complicated nature have existed among the members of the Ancient Order of Hibernians. Various causes hare been assigned far these quarrels, which finally resulted in a split, which divided the organization into two factions, each independent of the other, and each claiming that the other had no recognition frgm the governing body in Ireland, known as the board of Erin. The primary and indeed the most important of the causes •rose two years ago in the dissatisfaction of a portion of the members with State Delegate Henry F. Sheridan. The wrangle developed into an appeal to the board at Erin, who sided with the dissatisfied party and cut the others off. Finally, on representations of the latter, the board revoked its order and approved the Sheridanites. The opposition recently sent a special delegate to Ireland to plead their, oase, and the result is the Sheridan party again cut off. Both sections in this city include some of the best known and most representative Irish-Americana. In the Sheridan wing aw Alexander Sullivan, John F. Finerty and others, while the leaders of the anti-Sheridans are Dr. P. H. Cronin, P. a O'Neall, Father Foorney and others. Washwotok, Oat 8.—United States Treanurer Jordan to-day issued a circular notico stating that "owing to the great demand for other denominations of notes the treasurer is need municipal reforms.

In order to satisfy, as far as passible, the public demstid, it has been decided to tarnish from this office these notes in sums of #1,000 to each bank making application, and St the same time depositing that sum with the assistant treasurer at New York. On receipt of the certificate of deposit a like sum will be forwarded at the expense of the bank, la order to effect an equitable distribution, as far as possible, applicants will receive (heir notes in the order in which deposits an made at the jnib-treasury at Hew York.

This "evening up" process has been going on pretty rapidly, and already tho cry is beginning to go up that more than half the officeholders are Democrats, and that, far from being content with establishing a balance, the administration is rapidly pushing on toward a clean sweep. We have thus far obtained figures mors or has complete at the department at Washington, except the treasury. The figures do not include the uncla«NM service at large, except that of the postoffloe, justice and state departments. We found in the service at large of some of the department*, notably the war end navy departments, that the employee were so scattered as to make it well nigh impassible to obtain the statistics of removals and appointments without putting the government to heavy expense. Our figures are as yet very incomplete. In tl»e classified servioe It to hard to tell ouch about the politics of the appointees, because all applicants have an equal chance before the civil servioe examiners. the city fa going to—well, the politician* [Laughter.] To their credit, the workingmen have been the first to attempt to bring about' municipal reform." He went on to say that politicians were wondering who Henry George was. He could assure them that he never Mole a bank-er a railroad; that he wte a man against whom the breath eC suspicion bad not been raised. He said Mr. George possessed grit; Ability, Strong common sense and honesty, If Mr. George was elected mayor he would go into office pledged to no party and untrammeled by "halls."

Day after day the drug, in medicinal doses, found its way into, the liquor that brought temporary strength to the wornout but determined advocate. The drug is cumulative in its action, and one morning the collapse began and the deadly work was under way. Mm. Starrs was suddenly summoned to her husband's bodside. Early on the morning of Sept 13, 1885, he woke, smoked a cigar, and insisted that the patient watcher by his oonch should take some needed rest.

Ellis, alias "The Duchess," alias the "Chicago Daisy," the noted adventuress, has been under police surveillance in this city since last Monday. On that day Maj. Walker received Information from New York that a dealer in that city had lost a. large quantify of goods through the false pretenses of an alleged confidence woman. The woman, .it appears, purchased the goods at an installment house by making a small deposit and claiming as a guarantee that a well know* lawyer here had $1,400 belonging- to her. Mme. Ellis was arrested. In conversation With Maj. Walker, chief of police, she stoutly maintained that she was here for no dishonest purpose. Notwithstanding this, Ae wan taken to the Sixth precinct station and placed behind the baro. Her photograph ha* been forwarded to the New York dealers for identification.Professor Thomas Davidson, the next speaker, read from manuscript, and argued that the reason workingmen have boon oppressed in the past was that they did not know their power. The present political movement of organised labor, he said, was an evidence that wortingmea were opening their eyes. The men engaged in the labor movement were the real friends of civilisation because they were striving to reform our country by peaceable methods. New York, h» -Jd, sadly needed reform because' It.had beoosna politically a sinkhole of corruption and a den of thieves. Mr. George's election, he declared, would make the city respectable. The reverend chairman than introduced Professor Daniel De Leon, of Columbia college, who said Mr. George's candidacy would make the ooming campaign one of vital issues and principles Instead of twaddle and platitudes. As a resident and property holder he felt that his interests would be best subserved. The city, ha declared, was governed by a small minority e# men who have no interest in the city beyood what they oould steal from it. Saratoga Stuck la tba Mod. Rokdoct, N.

Some other way will be devised. When the morning sun entered the room and Mrs. Storrs awoke, the patient lay calmly still and silent He was dead—died, as the public announcement had it, of paralysis of the heart It was what the "gang" called "a piece of slick work." Mr. Storm' death occurred at 7:10 o'clock Saturday morning, Sept 13, 188S, at the Clifton house, in the city of Ottawa, Ills. His illness had become markedly serious only the preceding day. The report of the event was it once flashed over the wires to Chicago, and caused universal surprise and regret among all people save the few who were in the secret of the anticipated event BoeavUle Bicycle Usees. In the postoffloe department, which Includes by far the largest number at unbiassed employes, the offices appear to be about equally divided between Republicans and Democrats. In the department of Justice soms 60 per cent of the 'Hi-1"*tCHI employes are Democrats, while in all the othsr departments the proportion of Democrats to something less than half—in one case Dot mors than 10 per cent, I think, although I oannot give you the exact figures. We also, find that inside the departments at Washington which aramoi e directly under the eye of the president the proportion appeara to be much smaller than in remote sections of the country. I cannot give figures to substaMMate this statement, but think that it to as I have said. I believe the collection and publication of these figures cannot but result in good in several ways. It will lead cabinet officers to be careful not to make too many changes, and has already caused some to assign tbsir reasons tor the ebangee already mada. It will be likely to prevent each departoMBt from greatly outstripping the others in the matter of removals when it knows that the figures are in the hands of tha president and of the people.

They are entirely satisfied as to the result of their visit to President Cleveland, but not so well pleased with Secretary Bayard. Several years ago a treaty was made between this country and Spain whereby it was agreed that Spanish vessels should pay ths same tonnage dues in the ports of the United States as American vessels, and that ths latter should in reciprocity pay only the same port charges in Cuba as Spanish vesseto. Ths treaty was extended to protective tariff, so that goods carried from toe United States to Cgfaa in American vessels shoald pay ths same duties as if carried in Spanish vessels, and vice versa, as to Cuban products. The United States followed the treaty in good faith, but tha Spanish authorities •bused at every opportunity, untd finally American vessels could not compete with the foreigners.

After rising to the height of a mils and a half the balloon struck a strteg current of wind, which carried it northeast with terrible force. On reaching Hartford Capt. Moore began to throw out ballast The balloon shot downward at an awful rate, and landed on Bireh mountain, in South Manchester, thirty-five miles distant from Bristol The distance was made in Just twenty-five minutes. The balloon landed in a thicjf part of the woods, and the farmers who came to Capt Moore's relief were obliged to cut down four trees before'he could be liberated. Capt Moore came to Hartford last night, and brought his balloon, which is badly wrecked. "Only this," continued Maokin, "that a man who has anything to do frith people of a certain class takes his life in his hands, particularly if he gets hold of more secrets than it is intended that he shall know.
