O., Oct. 23. J Never before was so much interest dis played in Washington in n municipal campaign as is shown in the New York city contest. Each of the quartette of candidates has staunch supporters in Washington who are always rcadv to talk in their favor and to show what great benefits would certainly follow the election of the man they favor. Nearly all of the prominent oflicers of the gov- rnmeut, from the President down, have made known their preference for tleii. Tracy, but so far the administration 1ms taken no steps indicating any intention to play any more active part in the ciim- oaiiin. notwithstanding the accusation which have been made against it by Gen. Tracy's opponents. While senti ment in Washington is divided among all the candidates, nine out of every ten men are opposed to Van Wyck, the Tam many candidate, will, after talking up their favorite, udd, "but I do not set ow it is possible to beat Van WyCk.'' Betting men are offering three lo one on Van Wyck without being able to get akcrs. Many believe that Low and Tracy together will get enough votes to win, if they were all cast for one ipau. instead of being more or less evenly di vided between them as they will be if they both romain in the field, and there is nothing in sight to indicate that either will withdraw, If George's candidacy has lost prestige in New York to the same extent it has in Washington, his total vote will be many thousands short of what was indicated when his candi dacy was first announced. M'. George has done some injudicious talking him self, but his greatest drawbacks have been the work of fool-friends. There has been much talk in Washing ton concerning the eleventh hour offer of the Bethlehem lion Go., of Bethlehem Pa., to sell its entire works to the gov ernment. Of course nobody seriously be- ieves the company witJiea lo sell out to the government: its offer is intended to throw a damper upon the project of the establishment of a big armor-making plant by the government, nnd to operate in some way to help to persuade Congress to pay tho price charged by this com pany and the Carnegie Co.. for making armor plate for our naval vessels. The offer is probably made at this time so that it can be included in annual report of the Secretary of the Navy, which is expected to contain somo recommendations con corning tic starting of a government armor-making plant. If the offer doesn't make any more impression upon Congress than it hos-made upon Washington offic ials it will fail of its purpose. American women will be interested in a portion of an official report received by the Department of State from the acting U. S. Consul at Marseilles, France. The report says that the acting Consul doubts whether, outside of the city of Paris, there are 100 rocking chairs in all France, and knowing the fondness of the Amen can women for that more or less com fortable piece of furniture, he suggests that American manufacturers might find it profitable to introduce rocking chairs to the French women. It was made plain at the last Cabinet meeting that President McKinley re-' garded his civil service order, that no employe In the classified service should be removed except upon written charges and after having been given an oppor tunity to refute the charges, binding upon the heads of departments, and an understanding was reached that regula tion! to carry it out in all branches of the government service should at once be adopted. It lias been carried out from the day it was Issued In the Treasury Department, notwithstanding tho decis ion of tho Supreme Court of the District of Columbia that the appointing power bad the power to remove persons from the classified service without giving rea sons therefor. It is said to have been ignored by the Post Office Department to a greater extent than In any of the otbir government departments, TBS MARKETS. Yesterday'! market quotations furnish ed by W. A.

The logisla tin e at its next session will lie asked to increase the appropriation to the Soldiers Home. The amount now given annually is 48, 500. There are now ii7 inmates, but many more have applied for admiss ion. The rain is falling in torrents and the State Fair is scarcely to see many today. Yesterday in spite of the dampniss and mud there were f all v 10,000 persons on the grounds, and today promised to gi over that, until this ceaseless rain begai to fall at U:o0 o'clock, lhere are more side shows and fakirs than ever before at a fair. These freaks drew well. Millie Christine the double bodied negro woman is indeed a wonder. She and her maid and manager (both white) arc stopping at the Park Ilutel.
