With confidence that better times and larger business are coming, men are less disposed every day to throw away good investments, and the very fact that prices of products are low is regarded as a guarantee against much further'de cline.

Br Telegraph to the Moraine Star. SENATE. . -Washington, March ' 86. At the opening of the business of the day. Mr. Gillinger of New Hampshire, Republi can, ref erring to his statement last Wed nesday as to applicants for placet in the Government Printing Office betng re quired to hop on one foot a distance of twelve-feet, said that that statement bad been challenged In some, quarters by penny-a-liners in the press and by one gentleman connected with the Civil Ser vice Commission. He held in bis hand sprinted form of a circular issued by the Civil Service Commission, giving points of examination of applicantsfor trades occupations in the Government service and stating the hopping tests as one o! the requirement. It also required tbe applicant to state whether be bad had anv disease daring tne past five years; whether any brother or sister had died within that time, and if so, from what disease, and to give his exact weight and height. In reply to a remark of Mr. bray, Mr. Gallinger asserted that Gen, Sheridan would never nave bad an opportunitv to become a great military leader if tbe Civil Service Commission had had a cbance at him. He could not even bave got a place ia tbe Government Printing Office. After further remarks ia the same vein, tbe circular was re ferred to the Committee on Civil Ser vice and Retrenchment. ' A resolution was offered by Mr. Lodee. of Massachusetts, Republican. and agreed to, calling for copies of all papers and correspondences, diplomatic dr otherwise, on file in the State De partment relating to the arrest and im prisonment in Cuba of two American sailors. Richelieu and Bolton. At 13 50 tbe Senate, on motion of Mr. Davis, of Minnesota Reou3licin. went into executive session on the arbitration treaty. At 4 o clock tne senate adjourned un til Monday. HOUSE .OF REPRESENTATIVE. The consideration of tbe tariff bill nnder the five minute rule for the pur pose of amendment, which it was ex pected would be strictly business, opened with tbe liveliest political contest of tbe stsiion, lasting for nearly three hours. Preliminary to the main battle of the day there was a lively tkirmish immedi ate! v after the House went into Com mittee of the Whole and the clerk was instructed to begin reading the bill. Mr. Lanban of Texas, Democrat, asked if it would be in oreer at this time to move to strike out the enacting clause, wbich, be stated, . if adopted would operate as a re j action of the bill. Tbe motion created temporary con sternation in tbe Republican ranks, for there was hot a quorum of the commit tee present, and It was apparent that a larger number of Democrats were in their seats than Republicans. Mr. Dinglev, chairman of the Wats and Means Committee, suggested that the motion be held ia abeyance until some progress had been made in the reading of tbe bill, wben there would be a larger attendance present. To press the motion now would result only in de laying tbe bill until a quorum could be obtained. Mr. Lanham stated that the motion expressed his antagonism to the bill, and he desired to press it to a vote now, tbe chairman having beld it to be in order. Chairman Sherman, the chair has made no ruling; it has only expressed a hasty opinionthat the motion is in order, but bas tbe gentleman studied tbe terms of the special order under whicb the House is proceeding r Mr. Lanham I do not understand, Mr. Chairman, that that order super cedes tbe general rules governing de bate and the consideration of tbe bill. While the chairman was looking np the subject an animated collcquy pro gressed on tne noor. Finally, Chairman Sherman ruled that under the specal order the motion by tbe gentleman from Texas war not then in order. Promptly on the reading of the pref atorv paragraph of tbe bill, Mr. Dock ery, of Missouri. Democrat, offered an amendment authorising tbe Secretary of tbe Treasury to admit free of ' duty any article the production and pries of which was controlled by a trust in tbe United States Mr. Dingley. chairman of the Com' mitiee on Wavs and Means, made the paint that tbe amendment was not in order at that place, and Mr. Dalzell of Pennsylvania. Republican, said that if it were in order as to time Congress could not devolve on tbe Secretary a judicial duty such as that of determining whether or not a trust was in control of a certain article. Tbis precipitated a debate, based oa Democratic charges that the Repub licans favored trusts and did not want to legislate against them. All of tbe leaders on both sides, and some not re cognized in that rank, took part. Chatges and counter-charges were bandied back and forth and the record of the past seven years was searched to show the action of both parties on the subject of trusts.. After nearly three hours of this skirmishing, tbe question ostensibly being the point of order. Gen. Hender son of Iowa, Republican, appealed to both sides to put an end to it. saying that if it was the desire to get through the bill in the time allotted for its con sideration, 'a mighty bad start had been made all around." The point against tbe amendment was sustained bv tbe Chair (Mr. Sherman of New York, Re publican) and on appeal is" ruling was sustained 158 to 104." Many other amendments having the same object, to put articles controlled by trusts on the free lists, were offered and on objec tion by Mr. Dingley all were ruled out of order. Mr. Dingley stated that wben the time came to deal with the trusts tbe Republican majority would do so and that after passing this tariff bill, if anything remained to do for the public Interest, it would attend to that At 5.15 p. m. the House adjourned until to morrow at 10 o'clock, having disposed of f of the 163 pages of the bill.

President McKinley has decided to remove Post master Steven U. Poe, of Graf ton. W. Va on account of his pugilistic tenden cies. Charges were made against Mr. Poe by citizens of Grafton that just prior to the November elections be en gaged in a prize fight under the regular ring rules and in eight rounds, by a scientific blow, put his opponent out, tbe postmaster pocketing the proceeds of the bout. It was represented to tbe President that the Grafton Leader, ed ited by Mr. Poe, printed a full account of the fight. It Is expected that Mr. Poe's successor will soon be named, and that J. W.

THE WATER STILL RISING. A Break la the Xjsveea Would Cans the i Zinu of HlUiona of Dollars in the Mississippi Delta. Br Telegraph to the Moraine Star. JACK.SON, Miss., March 26. A special from Green villle to the Clarion Ledger says that the river rose -seven inches higher during the twenty-four hours ending at noon to-day and more is com ing. The town of Greenville, between whicb and the river there is a protection levee, is now six feet below tbe level of the water, but tbe natives have confi dence in their ability to bold the fort, A letter - from Ureenwood says: "I have just returned from Stovall s Landing, where I walked over five miles of the levee, and must say I never saw or expected to see anything like it. The levees seem strong, but the water Is within nine inches of the top and rising. A break would mean the destruction cf millions of dollars' worth of property in the great delta, where crops of cotton and corn have already been pitched and the latter is growing nicely. Tbe State is largely interested in larmlng operations in the delta, hav ing convict farms there, and cultivating about 10.000 acres of land. Hundreds of acres of State corn is already under water from inland floods, but a break in tbe great levees would inundate tbe whole and cost the State many thousand dollars.. Governor McLaurin went to Green ville this eveniiig in response to tele grams from bis brother, Warden Mc Laurin of the penitentiary, who seems to think a break inevitable. Warden McLaurin has hundreds of convicts at work s rengtbemng the weak places in the levees and but for the assistance tbus given, it is said, the stiuctures would have collapsed before this time. a colored Defaulter B ba Both the City and the Men in His ' Employ. Bv Telegraph to the Morning Star. Baltimore, Md.. March 23. Mayor Hooper to-day removed from office Dr. George Wellington Bryant, colored, su perintendent of the mjddle district of tbe street cleaning department. Bryant confessed that he bad systematically robbed both the city and the men in his employ. The amount of bis shortage is not vet known, but it is estimated that the. city wiil tempDranly lose about $3,000. The seventy-five colored men who constitute tbe middle district street cleaning brigade are believed to have lost between 12 500 and $3 000. The city's loss is covered by a bond Bryant's peculations have been going on Icr sev eral months. He manipulated tbe pay roll against the city and used all sorts of schemes to hold out a portion of tbe money due his employes. He can be indicted for both petjury and false pre tences. Bryan was one of the best known colored men in the city. - He is a gradu ate physician and a man of considerable ability. He bas long been prominent in Republican political circles and during the last campaign he stumped tbe State for the Republican ticket. He was an applicant lor the position of Commis sioner of Deeds for tbe District of Co Inmbla under President McKinley.

By Telegraph to the Morning Stat. Key Wkst, Fla.. March 26 The city is full of rumors of an expedition. The City of Key West came in last night and reported .seeing a large tug anchored near Bahia Honda, twenty miles from here. At noon yesterday a targe steamer passed tbrough tbe bir bir going out through the northwest channel. It is reported that she came to locate the United States revenue cut ters and get them to pursue her and thus throw them on the scent." Tbe tteam tug George W. Cbilds took' on a large quantity of coal last night between 8 and o clock and left the harbor to the northwest. It is stated that the coal was intended for a filibustering steamer that did not come into the harbor. The cutter Winona left this morning for Bahla Honda. It is stated also that men and arms were on the keys north of here ready for shipment. Caesar Esquerio Montero, who was oorn at K.ey west, was arrested at Hay ana two weeks ago as a politcal suspect. He was released unconditionally yester day, and will retora to Key-West soon. Tbe American consulate ignored the fact of h a arrest, and his release was due entirely to the Initiative of the Spani.h authorities.

The Government has handed to the representatives here of tbe several Powers a note protesting against the blockade of Crete. The note declares that in view of the bonds uniting the Greeks and the Christians of Crete the blockade, which is depriving tbe island of the means of provisioning itself, is contrary to .the sent iment of hu manity inspiring the Powers. The President of the Boule. in behalf of that body, has sent to Mr. Gladstone a message of gratitude for tbe stand he has taken in behalf of Greece and the Cretan Christians. The message says, in part: .; "All your glorious life has been full of combats for justice and liberty;! Now that the Hellenic nation has risen to fight in favor of Crete, wbich is bedewed with blood, you come to uphold anew the rights of an oppressed race." London, March 20. The Govern ment announces that the international forces in the island of Crete have occu pied the town of Malaxa, which was the scene of fighting between, the Turkish garrison and the Cretan insurgents yes terday and subsequently taken by the latter, tbe garrison having found the place untenable. The grounds for this action, as stated, are that tbe admira's commanding the joint fleet of tbe Powers in Cretan waters regarded tbe occupation of the town by either Turks or Greeks as menacing to the ! Euio peans occupying Canea. . I j Canea,; March SO. It is ascertained that in the fighting which took place between the Turkish garrison and the insurgents at Malaxa yesterday, the Turks lost sixty men and the insur gents two hundred.

And then also from the people in the ordinary walks of life there come thou sand of honest, straightforward, heart felt letters, telling how Paine's ce'ery compcuid has made them well. Tbeir testimony simply goes to show what New England's most vigorous editor so aptly said in a letter telling of the benefit Paine's celery compound had been to a member of his familv : "Rhine's celery compound is not a patent tried cue; it is not a saraaparilla; it is not a mere tonic; it is not an or dinary nervine it is as far beyond them alias the diamond is superior to cheap glass." It makes people well. It is the one true specific recognized and prescribed to day by eminent practitioners for dis eases. arising from a debilitated neivous system. Prof. Phelps gave to his pro- fession a positive 'cure for sleeplessness, wasting strength, dyspepsia, biliousnets, liver complaint, neuralgia, rheumatism, all nervous diseases and kidnev trou bles. For all such complaints Paine's celery compound has succeeded again and again, where everything else has failed.
