GREEN B. RAUil
WILL IHUCTICK LAW IN WASHINGTON
AND M4KE TWICE AS MUOH MONEY.
Washington Spoclil t ) the CjoracrUl Qi
xett ) .
Tno resignation of Green B Riun
was a complete surprise to everyone
Not oven hta moat Intimate frlondi o
oflica associates had the faintest bin
that anchaconrat ) had been deter
mined upon by the Commissioner
When General Ilium returned t
the treaanry department , after hi
interview with the president , and an
nonucolto hla inbordlnatoa what h
had juat done , there waa exhibited b
all , first Incredulity and then acini
grief.
In reply to thoae who Inquired re
gardlng the caaaea which led to hi
resignation , Commissioner Rtnm said
that the resposlbillty of the oflho had
grown too heavy for a man of hia ago ,
and the salary too amalL lie expect
ed to remain in this city and practice
law before the supreme and other
ooorta and the departments.
This Is true , but it does not give
the inside of the matter. It has long
been a aonrco of surprise to those In
Washington , who are used to seeing
important Intoreata ably represented ,
that the whisky dealers should Intrust
their business to mon of such limited
taot that almost every legislative
project undertaken for the past two or
tbroe years has failed. Were n law
yer and aa expert Itko General Rjum
engaged aa counsel or representative
for thoae poopli , there wonld
bo but little likelihood of
a failure on any reasonable
plan for their benefit. While It Is not
known that definite arrangomonta
have boon made with General liaum ,
it ia understood that ho has long boon
considered as n desirable acqualtlon ,
and It wonld not bo surprising to BOO
him acting fur them. The salary ,
mentioned when thla matter was dla-
cnsaed laat winter , as suitable for a
representative like General Rinrr ,
waa $25,000 per annum. The ultimate
business relations which General
Rinm his had with all banks not
national gives him an acquaintance
that will bo of the best benefit
horoafter. There are now pending
ing unaottled and diaputed bank
accounts with tha government
for unpaid taxes , which ho
can bring to A satisfactory sot-lenient
If intrusted with their management.
Ho la alao to act aa counsel for Wm ,
Pitt Kellogg , lately indicted. But ho
has only consented to thla upon the
most earnest solicitation. The two
hundred thousand tobacco , rebate
claims which will ba shortly filed , also
suggest a possible field for onn well
acquainted with department routine.
This class of claims , while covering
but small amounts and needing no
legal preparation or argument , yet re
quire looking after and collection.
Altogether there are BO many bright
possibilities outside of the got eminent
employer Mr. lUum's acknowledged
talents that bis resignation ot this
time Is the moat natural thing tn the
world.

NEW YORK , May 1 A oommlttoo
of Importora of pork products at Ham
burg writes the chamber of commerce
hero that the pamphlet by T. Itrotto
of Now York , la mainly responsible
for tho. prohibition of Importation of
American bacon , and aays the chamber
should make it publicly known that
the painplot must bo oontidcrcd n
inoro "atroko of buMncss ontorprlao , "
nt.d that no Importance whatever
must bo attributed to its remarka
about the quality nf goods , The re
marks of The Now York Btaa'o '
XMtung aa well M some other Amer
ican papers to the effect that dead
hogs are used for the manufacture of
lard , and the product of hoga utoi for
mechanical pnrpncea called "Lard ,
AI" have done the great
est harm , and contributed toward
establishing the prejudice against
American hog product , with aomo
members of our government , who ,
without any oxperlonco of matten ,
take a theoretical view of It and seem
to think the public may bo led to bo
llovo this lard is also fit for consump
tion. Everybody acquainted with the
trade knows this is impoiaiblo. Nev
ertheless It would recommend that for
this name bo substituted another , per-
hups , ' "Refuse , AI , " which would
render a misunderstanding of that
kind Impossible. Any term that does
not contain the word "lard" would
suit the purpose. In order to socnro
a repeal of the prohibition It is of the
greatest Importance that your govern
ment should take the trouble of mak
ing the necraeary investigation which
wonld establish the following facts :
1 That no diseased hogs or dead
hoga are used for the export trade.
2 , That the examination of goods
when shipped la a strict onn , so much
BO that only fully cured and wholeaomo
meat can paaa it.
Such investigations can only have
a beneficial influence on the whole
trade In American products in general.
At the same time they certainly will
prove the boat menus of removing ex
isting projndlce and eccurlnc ; a repeal
of the prohibition lately leaned.
