a sensation was created in this city to

Washington, May S. The civil ser

PAUPEll IMMIGRATION.
Inquiry regarding Governor IJutler's
letter to Folger shows that pauper im
migration from Ireland has for some
months been under the consideration
of the department. Reports by United
States consuls in Ireland generally
agree that the present distress is not
exceptional, and published accounts to
the contrary are exaggerated. Thfi
situation of the peasantry is miserable,
but it lias been so for yen is. Local
authorities have abundant means to
relieve actual necessity. The outlook
at home i3 very discouraging, and con
suls agree that the means to be found
is chiefly in emigration. Opinions dif
fer as to the question whether the gov
ernment, as the guardians of the poor,
or associations are engaged in sending
pa-upers to this country. The consul
at Dublin says it not done in his dis
trict. Some of tho other consuls be
lieve the authorities endeavor to in
duce the poor and lazy to emigrate.
Londonderry suggests that contribu
tors In America be more careful, as
charges are frequently made that such
funds are not always applied to the re
lief of the destitute.
CIVIL SERVICE MATTERS.
A report i3 current tonight that the
nomination of Keim, as chief examin
er of the civil service commission, is
to be withdrawn, and the name of
Charles Lyman, chief clerk of the
treasury, has been agreed upon, and
will be sent to the President with rec
ommendation for chief examiner in
stead of Keim. Messrs. Eaton and
Thomas decline to say anything on the
subject. The new civil service iu!es
having been approved, the coin mission
ers will leave Washington in a few
daj 3 for the purpose of putting exam
ining boards in operation in the large
cities. The commission propose to
have examining boards in cities fully
established in time to secure the ex
amination of applicants for positions
in the service sometime before July
16. Th ; work has been divided so
that each commissioner is assigned to
a district.
STATt ROUTE TRIALS COURT AD
JOURNS. When Ulips began his concludina ad
dress to the jury he made a particu
larly bitter attack upon Brady, and
then opened upon the other defend
ants. "This prosecution," said Dliss,
is to protect the treasury. Such tri
als must necessarily take place." The
eyes of the country were pon this
trial to ascertain if the jury under
stood a case of this magnitude.
As Bliss took his seat Merrick said :
" The government has closed its open
ing." Wilson immediately inquired of the
court whether the gove; nment would
claim two arguments in closing.
Merrick replied in the affirmative,
and as showing the sentiment of the
attorney general Merrick read a leteer
from Brewster, wherein he (Merrick)
was directed to ask the court to allow
the government two closing argu
ments, for it is his conviction that
they ate entitled to it in this of all
other cases. If the court declines to
allow it then he (the attorney general;
is necessarily excluded.
Wilson - declared " that he would re-

counsel that would juntify a departure

these ciihcs to allow but ono reply to th
government, and that order Would bo

Hinkle (hen requested an adjourn

Ingersoll said he had been taken by

Ingersoll This is a different case.
