indignation rampant at Wash
ington OVER "IN OFFICE.”
Great Similarity of Names—Men and
Women in the Department* Claim
They Have Been Libeled Alleged
Wickedness of the Capital.
from the Philadelphia Press.
New York, Not. 22.—The letters of
Commusloner Raum and Secretary Noble
venturing and dismissing from hts clerkship
in the pension bureau Lewis Vital Bogy for
writing the novel "In Office,’’ have done
more to make the book talked about than
perhaps either the commissioner or the sec
retary dreamed would be possible. Each
day there is a greater demand for the pecu
liar a.id notable story. Each day, too, finds
increased speculation among people, Inside
and outside of offioe, in and even away
from Washington, aa to the identity of tbe
men and women to whom Mr. Bogy has at
tributed such wicked traits.
The discussion has some of the nature of
that following the publication of “The
Breadwinners” and “The Moueymakers" a
few years ago. Keys explanatory or sup
posed to be explanatory of those’ volumes,
were printed then and so to-day, in Wash
ington and New York, meu get together
and conatruct keys to the characters of
“In Office.” War friends of many
of those whom Mr, Bogy is supposed to
have portrayed, indignantly asserted that
certain men should not be mistaken for cer
tain characters in the book. Their warmth
has been indiscreet. By their utterances
they have drawn attention to worthy pub
lic men, and connected them with the book,
men who doubtless have never been guilty
of tbe sins with which Mr. Bogy blaokens
most of his obaracters, meu who but for
their friends’ indiscreet defense would never
have been suspected of wrong.
Take the case of ex-Congressman Nied
riDgbause of St. Louis, for example. Com
missioner Raum has plainly intimated bis
belief that Mr. Bogy meant Mr. Niedring
hause when he drew the character of “Mr.
Friedringhaus.” Tbe_commissioner in his
letter to Secretary Noble complaining of
tbe book, refers to the Friedringhaus mat
ter iu this way:
“It is impossible to believe that a member
of congress would advise an innocent young
woman to enter upon a life of shame as a
means of retaining her position in a depart
ment, and yet a prominent and honorable
business man of St. Louis, who was a mem
ber of the last House, is broyght forward in
this book under a slightly changed name aa
the person who did this thing, and tbe ex
cabinet officer is introduced aa the willing
instrument to carry out tbe damnable sug
gestions of the congressman.”
raum’s guess a failure.
In reply Mr. Bogy says that Commis
sioner Raum is wrong. Here are Mr. Bogy’s
words ■
“ His attempt tp fasten the detestable char
acter of Friedinghaus upon ex-Congress
rnan Niedringbaus, by reference to ‘Tbe
honorable business man of St. Louis, who is
brought forward under a sligbtlv changed
name,’ is beneath contempt. I have tbe
honor of knowing the ex-member, and those
who possess his acquaintance will under
stand that a denial of tbe intention imputed
to me bv Gen. Raum is unnecessary. No
one would think of likening the despicable
character I have tried to draw to the inan
ot mature years, whose public and private
life has always been above reproach, and
who is esteemed most by those who knew
him best.”
Whatever the truth may be, it is certainly
strange that tbe author, however much of
an amateur oould not have given his wicked
congressman tome other nqma than one so
closely resembling that of a man whom he
himself declares to te above reproach in
both public and private life.
So, too, in the contemptible character
whom be calls "Gen. Twining." Mr. Bogy
could have delineated and scored such do
ings, and, if he really wished to accomplish
good, have accomplished it by saving that
tbii influential rogue had been a senator.
But, no.he must write that Twining was an
ex-Posttnaster General,and not merely that,
tut as a “young ex-Postmascer General.”
Is it any wonder then that the friends of
Frank Hatton, the only young ex-Post
luaster General who has recently bad to do
with Washington affairs, should protest ?
True, Mr. Hatton may stand aloof, pro
voked and irritated, and In a spirit of out
raged dignity, say that neither he nor his
friends need defend him, but who shall say
that Hatton really does not care?
The same is true of the ministerial char
acter whom Mr. Bogy represen’s as toady
ing to a wealthy and fashionable congrega
tion partly composed, according to tbe
author, of iustful husbands aud dishonest
wives. Mr. Bogy calls this minister * ‘The
Kev. Dr. P. Bar tell,” and because there is
m Washington a Rev. Mr. Bartlett, people
ere forced to think that the daring novelist
had Dr. Bartlett in mind. Commissioner
Raum apparently thought so. Mr. Bogy
denies that such was the case.
A WOMAN’S MISTAKEN FANCY.
Tl-ese instances illustrate well the cause
of Washington’s agitation. Here is a writer
who sees what be conceives to be an im
moral influence at work in department life
at the national capital. He observes close
ly; he knows that many believe with him
thas scores of Virtuous women in Washing
ton fall beneath the weight of tempation
thrust upon them by superior officers; he
decides to write a book and open the way
for a great moral reform. A laudable ef
fort. But his methods are clumsy, dispas
sionate critics claim, and he shows no fer
tility of resource in selecting names for
those who, to bis mind, typify the vices he
would punish and orush.
Commissioner Raum wrote to Secretary
Noble that Miss M. D. Miller first called his
attention to “In Offioe” and asked him to
make special note of page 148, where one of
the characters tells of a man shooting him
self In the bedroom of Miss Smiley, a young
woman clerk. Commissioner Raum says
this of the matter:
“I have read the book in question and
\?n 6 Hie passage before me to which Miss
Miller invites your ntteution, at page 148,
where allusion is made to a tragedy which
occurred some years ago of a young mas
shooting himself at a residence, where he
was calling, through carelessness. Ths
young lady referred to was not responsible
lor it in any way. There can be no doubt
Mr. Bogy had this cose in mind when he
wrote this paragraph. Ths change of names
floes not obscure his allusion. Tbe in
nuendo that the honor of the young lady
was compromised by the visit and death of
the voung man, that damaging facts were
• a . up ky an Influential congreismau,
and that the young lady is not kept in office
Because of her merit, but because of
S?\ ngure, is, in my opinion, a
libel upon all the parties concerned.”

The character of Letcher Thomoeon is
much talked of. He is known to moat poli

scandalous that he was removed from office,
and In portraying him Mr. Bogy did proba
bly what almost any other writer upon the
subject would have done.
AS ABSTRACT OF “IN OFFICE.”
The story starts in a Missouri town. It
tells how Tula Farleigh, a poor young
woman, the chief main-stay of her younge
brother and an invalid mother, has received
notice of her appointment as copyist in the
patent office at*72oayeer. The congress
man from the district, Frank Friedring
baus, has been instrumental in securing the
pwoe forTula, aud he writes her to corns
Washington at once.
On the tram a young man notices her.
He belongs to Washington. He heard Tula
tell tbe conductor she was going there, and
the young man rightly conceives that she is
about to enter one of the departments. He
pities her. for he feels that she will be
tempted.
Tula is installed at Washington In the
boarding house of Mrs. Bolton, au inoffen
sive and Inconspicuous person, whom Tula’s
mother in days of prosperity had engaged
as seeing woman. Various men aud
women, servants of the government, are
lodged in Mrs. Bolton’s house. Notable
among them is Miss Buck. Of her the au
thor writes;
"Miss Buck was a fine-looking young
woman of 25, who lived in adjace ,t apart
ments of her own aud took h r meals with
Mrs. Bolton. She dressed elegantly, went
shoppiug in a coupe, and seemed to have
solved the problem of securing inos; of the
luxuries of life on an income of S6OO a year.
Divers young men about town had been
known to speak of her familiarly as ‘Buck,’
and certain envious spinsters gossiped
lightly about her; but, on the other hand,
she was working for her living, attended di
vine service regularly and paid her bills
promptly.”
Immediately after settling at Mrs. Bol
ton’s, Tula wrote Congressman Friedring
haus of her arrival. The congressman w. s
young and Mr. Bogy makes him to have
been something of a gallant who has mar
ried well, and, in tbe words of his asso
ciates, “temporarily reformed.” He had
never seen Tula before, and lieing a “con
noisseur,” according to Mr. Bogy, he was
at once struck with the fair face and fine
figure of his protege.
TULA AND FRIEDRINGHAUS.
Here is a sample of the description of
their first meeting:
“I thought that 1 knew the resources of
of my district pretty well," he said, •* but I
discovered that her fairest product was un
known to me.”
"Yes, we will start at once”—smiling at
her embarrassment—“but six mouths from
now you will not be anxious to get there
early,” he said; aiding to himself,
and the roses will not bloom
so quickly in those oheeks of yours, if they
are like most oountry roses that come to
\V ashington.
Congressman Friedringhaus conducts Tula
to the patent office, iutroduces her to the
commissioner, aud leaves, she L assigned
to duty in ths southern divisibn, the chief
of which is Letcher Thompson. Mr. Bogy
pictures him in this way: “He is a heavy
set man of medium higbt, about 55 years
old. His mustache “ aud beard, cut closo
and parted In the middle, are quite gray,
though the thick black hair appears to have
been touched only lightly by the hand of
time. The forehead is broad, the eyes blue,
and the mouth, almost hiddeu by mustache
aud beard, large aud harsh.
"Believing himself possessed of an extraor
dinarily prepossessing appearance, he
dresses well, and is generally conceded to
be a good-looking man: though a husband
and father he prides himself on bis con
queets in the field of gal antry. He has
some means beyond his salary, and as has
systematized his household expenses to tbe
pettiest, with a view to economy, ho has
ample resources to satisfy his passion. He
is an unscrupulous man, and has been en
gaged in more than one questionable trans
action, but is shrewd enough to have kept
always within the letter of the law.”
RAIL. AND CROSATIE.
The citizens of St. Mathew’s, S. C., will
hold a meeting to-day and appoint a com
mittee to await upon the officials of the
Atlantic Coast Line to induce them to run
the Coast Line via Bt. Matthew's, instead of
Orangeburg to Augusta. If this proposi
tion is carried out, together with getting the
South Bound to St. Matthew's, it will give
the new county of Calhoun railroad connec
tions from all parts of its territory.
President Simons of the Travelers’ Pro
tective Association has called upon General
Manager Ward of the South Carolina rail
way to try and induce him to revoke the
order which prevented all travel on freight
trains. The traveling men found the
privilege of riding on freight trains of
great convenience to them, as it helped them
in making several points in one day. Gen
eral Manager Ward appreciated the posi
tion of the traveling men, but said the order
prohibiting travel on freight trains had
been issued on good grounds. Ho promised,
however, to give the matter his careful con
sideration, and said that he would do what
ever was possible.
The supreme court has been dealing with
a number of railroad cases, and has handed
down several decisions of interest in the
state. One was that of Garnett, agent of
the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
railroad, from Floyd county, in which the
judgment of the lower court was confirmed.
A declaration alleging that the conductor
of a passenger train agreed with plaintiff
to stop the train for him to get off at a
point where there was no regular station,
but at which defendant’s road crossed
another railroad at a graie; that plain.iff
paid his fare to this point, and that on
reashing the same, the train only slowed up
an 1 did not stop, so that plaintiff, “in order
to keep from being carried beyond his desti
nation, was compelled to get off the moving
train,” and in so doing was seri usly in
jured, does not set forth a causn of action,
it appearing from those allegations that
plaintiff’s injury was caused by bis own
voluntary act in taking a dangerous risk.
Another case was that of Smith
against the Georgia Railroad and
Banking Company from the Rockdale
superior court in which the judgment of
■ne lower oourt was reversed. A declara
t) 1 tiled by a track hand of the railroad
oomnany,"alleging that plaintiff was in
jured by a fall of earth, caused by the
negligence of the company, its agents and
servants, is amendable by setting out the
particulars constituting the alleged negli
gence , and also by averring that plaintiff
■was without fault. The third case was that
of Ivy against the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia railroad from the city court of
Atlanta, in which the city court’s judgment
was affirmed.

MARB.ED AT rl-taT oIOHT.
Ho Had Just Arrived From California
and She From Denmark.
From Tuesday's Sew York World.
Peter Petersen, aged 29 years, reputed to
boa wealthy farmer of Buck county, Cali
fornia,was married to Miss Beri he Sorensen,
a pretty young woman who has seen 24 sum
mers, yesterday morning, by Mayoi Ed
ward Stanton of Hoboken.
Petersen came to New York from Cali
fornia on Saturday with the intention of
taking the Bremen steamship Elbe to-day
for Germany whence he inten%d to go to
Deumark, the land of his birth, in search of
a wife.
Upon arriving in New York he took a
room at the Scandinavian hotel, on Green
wich street. On Saturday nigl t he met
Berithe Sorensen, who bad also arrived at
tbe hotel on that day. She was an immi
grant by the Hamburg s:eamsbip Rugia
ar.d had no friends in this country. She
had lived and worked alone in Denmark,
her native land, and hearing of the bright
prospects for industrious young women In
America she decided to come here.
She was a stranger in a strange land
when she met Petersen Saturday night, and
when he accosted her kindly her heart went
out to him. It was a case of love at first
sight on both sides. Petersen had never
seen her before, but as she was a straDger
and a native of this country and otherwise
about filled his idea of what a wife ought
to be, he at once offered her his heart,
wbicu sheas unhesitatingly accepted.
Mr. and Mr<. Petersen started for Cali
fornia last night, Petersen having lost all
interest in his projected trip to Deumark.

There is a way to cure this
affliction. It arises from a dis
ordered stomach. Read what
the celebrated Doctor Hofmeis
ter said before the Medical So
ciety of London :
‘‘The unnatural motions of
the stomach causing pressure
and belchings, the irritation
of the intestines resulting in
catarrh of the bowels, ana the
inflamed mucous membranes,
are the most fruitful of all
known causes of disease.
"‘Out of them grow most
kidney and liver troubles, dia
betes, all rheumatic affections,
and gout. I have found that
the unnatural motions of the
stomach cease, the intestinal
troubles become soothed, and
health results from the use of
Carlsbad Waters or Sprudel
Salts. The diuretic effect of
these remedies, its quiet action
upon the lining of tne stomach,
and its healing power upon the
iuflamed intestines, are beyond
all praise.”
