senators so appointed , applied to the senate
to-lay to bo relieved of his duties on the

thanks to his jxjlitlcal associates by whom
that distinction had been proposed. He also

Ki'Kiinl ti > Appointment * .
WASHINGTON' , D. C. , March 23. Five mem
hers of the Missourideleg-ition in congress
headed by KopresonUtlvo Uland , calleJ al
the 1'ostofllco department tad jy and held a
conference with Postmaster General Dlssell
The delegation desired some expression fron
General Ulssoll as to what weight would b (
given to the recommendations of members o
congress In the appointment of postmasters ,
It 1md been repeatedly stated In the news
papers , It was said , that congressional liitlu
unco was to go for nothing , and this state
ment had been so often repeated that it ha (
come to bo the general belief throughout th <
country that the recommendation and in
flucnco of a member of congress was of m
particular value to Jan applicant. It was ai
embarrassing situation for a member to be
placed in , and it was hoped that the post
master general would giva them a dellnit
answer on these points. Mr. liland statei
a hypothetical case. There were In a cet
tiiln town lialf a dozen applicants for the post
mastership. They were nil food men-
cijually good and each had Hied In the do
partmcnl a petition signed by a rcspectabl
number of reputable citizens. The quostioi
Mr , Uland desired answered was whothe
the recommendation of the members of con
press from that district would decide th
contest in the candidate's favor.
IlUioll Xnn-commlttul.
Mr , Bisscll listened attentively to all tha
was said , but declined to decide questions o
this character until ,111 actual case , involv
ing the iKinits under discussion , was prc
sentcd Ho did not think ho could Justly b
held responsible for what had boon pul
llshcd in the newspapers , and ho called at
tcutiou to the fact that thus far , not ;
single postmaster had boon appointed wh
had not the endorsement of his membc
of congress. It ought to bo taken as con
elusive oUdeuco that sometime * newspaper
made mistakes , and that it was by no mean
his intuition to liaioro members of congress
Ho thought , however , that the qucs
lion of candidates should , in a measure a
least , bo decided by the people of th
locality. They were moro intcrosto
than any onu elso. Undoubtedly thoi
wishes should bo consulted an
plvcu very great weight. What he most d <
sired was that ho should have the benefit c
the advice of tne people as well as that c
their rcpiVbenUkllvo iu congress. No on
Mould iu any sense bo ignored , and It wa ,
folly to suppose that the assistance , sorvie
nnd recommendations of men of such big
character us were the representatives of tin
people in congress were not oarocsllyMi
sired. His great aim was to plvo the poopl \
of this country the best possible postal so
vlco In every brunch
Mr. UUscll said ho bad understood th :
the statement had boon published that no
women wens to bo appointed to postmaster-
hlpi , and that newspaper men were also to
bo discriminated against. Neither of thcso
stories were true and ho regretted their pub *
llcatlon. _ .

that tip will send a delegation to Brussels in

the international monetary conference nnd
that he has already taken steps to notify
the various nations taking part that

improbable that Senator Teller will take
the plnco of Senator Jones of Nevada as
the representative of free silver republicans
on the delegation from lh.lt country. Senator
Allison has refused positively to return to
Brussels and Senator Jones does not dcslro
to go. The president will designate a demo

later than the 1st of September.
"I gave out no such statement , " said Mr.
Springer. "As a matter of fact , I have not
talked about an extra session to Mr. Cleve
land since ho came to Washington , nor has
hu said a word to mo nt any time regarding
what ho thought should bo done. In reply
to a question , I said that I believed wo would
have an extra session not earlier than the

have been twisted into an authoritative

TOO MANY EXTRAS IN SIGHT

Mtinl/lfml Politic * Grow.
Ing Vei-y Warm.
LIXCOI.N , Neb. , March 22. [ Special to TUB
BEE. ] The council last night fought long
and loud over the matter of awarding the
contract for the building of the O street via
duct. O'Shoo brought up the matter by
moving that the contract bo awarded to the
Milwaukee Bridge and Iron works with the
provision that the masonry shall bo of Colorado
rado sandstone at $ ll.li' ) per cubic yard , the
city attorney having given ns his opinion
that this is the binding effect of Its bid , and
that the $1S clause therein related to the
manner of constructing the piers rather
than the material to bo used. Another mem
ber moved that the bid bo accepted as It
stood.
Bochmcr called the attention of the coun
cil to the fact that if the council allowed the
bidder to charge the $10,000 extra for
masonry , as contemplated by it , the cost
would use up the entire estimate , nnd there
was danger that If any more extras wcro
run in the railroad company wtuld refuse to
pay for them , andMegal complications ensue.
After a lengthy disrussion the following
resolution was passed :
lle olvctl. That the bid of the Milwaukee
Itrldce nnd Iron Works company bo accepted ,
and that the Hoard of 1'ubllc Works be directed ,
to prepare the contrnct therefor , putting : r
clause therein that the ma-onry shall be of
Colorado sandstone , at J11.i5 ! per ruble vard ,
and submit the sam-j to the city council for
approval.
In drawing up tne specifications the city
engineer failed to state what kind of stone
should be used in the masonry portion of the
structure. Tbo Milwaukee company made
nn open bid specifying that all masonry
would be at the rate of ? ll.'JTi per cubic yard.
Further down it stated that should
the city decide to use cyllndrival
iron piers the masonry underneath should
bo $18 per cubic yard. On the
back of the bid wns written a statement
that the masonry , should It be of Colorado
sandstone , was to be nt the rate of { 18 a
cubic yard. In reporting upon the matter
the Board of Public Works recommended
that the bid bo awarded to the Milwaukee
company , but in consideration of their using
Colorado sandstone for masonry they should
bo allowed the sum of f'J..CJO extra. This
recommendation the council refused to ac
cept and will endeavor to make the company
do the work at the amount of its bid. This ,
it is very safe to assert , the bridge people
will not accept , as at $11.35 it would be a los
ing job.
.Steward Mitdden Injured.
H. M. Madden , steward at the Insane asy
lum , was seriously injured last night while
on his way to the hospital from the city.
The street car line runs within a few rods of

the bridge , falling a distance of ten feet or
more. Ills cries brought the assistance of

juries consist of a fracture of the thigh bono

William Dennis was released today on a
writ of habeas corpus by Judge Lansing.
Dennis wns fined nnd sentenced to sixty
days iu the county jail by a Itajmond Justice
of the peace for asslmlt. His attorney ap
plied for his release on the ground that a
justice had no authority in law to fine or
sentence a man for misdemeanors , inasmuch
as the statute in conferring jurisdiction on
justices nullified its act by giving them
double jurisdiction. The court held the point
well taken.
The tailors are still out nt the various
shops in the city , none of which , save the
two which agreed to the scale , being in oper

SMOKING TOBACCO.
I'm an old smoker , and
have at one time
or another tried all
the different Smoking
Tobaccos , but for a good smoke Bull Durham
beats 'cm all.
A leading characteristic of Bull Durham has always *
been the hold which It takes on old and fastidious smokers.
What Its excellence first secured , Its uniformity has always
retained , and It is , therefore , to-day as twenty-five years ago ,
the most popular Smoking Tobacco in the wotid.

Which do you want--
a Top Goat
or Pnuemonia
We don't have any Pneumonia on
hand just now , because we have such
an immense assortment of Preventers in
th e shape of
Spring Overcoats
coats- Pneumo
nia costs more
th an our Top
Coats , too , and
it's not half so
stylish You'll
look better after a week's trial of one of
our nobby Spring Overcoats than you
would with the same amount of experi
ence in the Pneumonia line. We have
no desire to stir up a fight with the
doctors , but the fact remains that our
Light Overcoats are a whole lot nicer
o
to take than Pneumonia medicine.
