I.IARI1.ITY OF CATERERS.
The Massachusetts Supreme Court has
just rendered an opinion that a caterer
who furnishes unwholesome or poisonous
food is liable in damages for any injury
sustained by those who eat it. The law
on this point is thus laid down by the
Court: “ If one who holds himself out
to the public as a caterer, skilled in pro
viding and preparing food for entertain
ments, is employed as such by those who
arrange for an entertainment to furnish
food and drink for all who may attend
it, and if he undertakes to perform the
service accordingly, he stands in such a
relation of duty toward a person who
lawfully attends the entertainment ana
partakes of the food famished by him as
to be liable to an action of tort for
negligence in famishing unwholesome
food, whereby such person is injured.
This liability does not rest so much upon
an implied contract as upon a violated or
neglected duty voluntarily assumed. In
deed, where the guests are entertained
without pay, it would be hard to estab
lish an implied contract with each in
dividual. The duty, however, arises
from the relation of the caterer to the
guests. The latter have a right to as
sume that he will furnish for their con
sumption provisions which are not un
wholesome and injurious through any
neglect on this part. The furnishing of
provisions which endanger human life or
health stands clearly upon the same
ground as the administering of improper
medicines, from which a liability springs
irrespective of any question of priority
of contract between the parties.”
The Court adds that it is not necessary
to aver that the caterer knew of the in
jurious quality of the food. ‘‘It is suf
ficient if it appears that he ought to have
known of it and was negligent in fur
nishing unwholesome food.” It will be
noticed that the opinion goes to the ex
tent of holding that the caterer is liable
not only to the customer to whom he
has supplied the food, but also to every
person who has eaten it at the table of
the customer.
THE PURITAN SPIRIT.
New Englanders sometimes gush so
unreasonably about their Puritan fore
fathers that inhabitants of other sections
cannot resist the impulse to say some
ugly and not untruthful things about the
founders of New England. The Atlanta
Constitution recently took the Puritan in
hand to give him a piece of its mind, and
here is the Springfield Republican’s re
joinder; “God’s side against the devil—
that is the motto of the Puritan. It has
made the system of universal cimmon
school education, which is the great safe
guard of our land to-day. It is that
spirit that moves in the great human
itarian schemes, in the thorough estab
lishment of charities on broad plans for
the relief of the whole community.
Wherever there is a movement to-day
for the destruction of the liquor busi
ness the Puritan spirit works. The
Georgia editor has but to look at the
great movement for that purpose that iB
now sweeping over his own State, and at
the religious movement which goes on
by ita side and associated closely with it,
and in which he is bearing a noble part
himself, to see the Puritan reforming
principle at work.”
The Republican’s neat method of say
ing “You’re another” is not the least
admirable bit of this vigorous paragraph.
J he theory that the mosquito is a
blessing in disguise, devoting itself to
extracting malarious germs from the
human system, is not new, but it is un
popular, for the remedy is worse than
the disease. Recently, however, accord
ing to the New Orleans Times-Demo
crat, a Galveston man has discovered
that a person can easily accustom him
self to the bite of the mosquito. Indeed,
“ the bite actually becomes invigorating,
refreshing and pleasant.” The Times
Democrat has begun the Summer season
gloriously, and it ought to send a special
edition of its mosquito number to the in
habitants of infected districts.
As both of our great political parties
seem committed to the policy of keeping
our regular army small, both ought to
insist that the soldiers shall be of the
highest quality attainable. The Savan
nah Nows is right in urging that "in in
listiug men only those should be taken
who have good characters and who are
supposed to feel a patriotic interest in
the safety and welfare of the country.
An army gathered from the slums of the
cities and from the ranks of the tramps
and vagrants is repugnant to the national
pride and does not inspire confidence in
its reliability.”

ANOTHER BATCH OF PRESI
DENTIAL APPOINTMENTS.
[SPECIAL TO TEE SENTINEL.]
He Will Mot be Kecnlled.
Washington, July 3.—It is understood
that Mr. Keiley, the recently appointed
United States Minister to Austria, whose
appointment has occasioned considerable
comment, will not be recalled. He will
go to Vienna, and should the Austrian
Government refuse to receive him it is in
timated that the United States will remain
unrepresented at the Vionna Court. It is
held that Keiley is a capable man, and in
every way fitted to fill the position to
which he has been assigned. When he
was appointed to Italy he was indorsed by
the entire Congressional delegation of
Virginia, and was confirmed by the Sen
ate. The Italian Government, it is under
stood, made inquiries of this Government
whether or not Keiley bad given utterance
in a public speech in 1871 to sentiments in
opposition to the occupation of Rome by
Victor Emanuel. The former Government
protested against his appointment, and
Keiley resigned his commission. It is
held that the Austrian Government has
no ground to complain of Keiley. The
question has been raised whether or not
it was uncomplimentary to Austria to
send Keiley to Vienna after he bad been
rejected by Italy. It is asserted that the
appointment was not uncomplimentary,
and the case of Mr. Kasson, who was nom
inated for the Spanish mission and ob
jected to by Spain but afterwards sent tn
Austria, where he was received, are cited
in support of the statement that no disre
spect was offered Austria by sending
Keiley there. Some vears subsequently,
and until a very recentdate, Kasson served
as United States Minister at Berlin.
A 4 Ivll service Muddle.
Cleveland, July 3.—Civil Service Com
missioner L. D. Thoman is bere, conduct
ing an examination of applicants for posi
lions in the Patent Office at Washington
His attention was called to the case o
Owen Keller, of Oaldwell,Ohio,who, it is re
ported, went to Washington in conformity
with a notioe from the Chief of the Ap
pointment Division, Higgins, to aocept «
$1,800 clerkship, after having passed tbi
required examination. When he reached
Washington he says be was told by Hlg
gins and by the First Auditor of thi
Treasury, Chenowitb, that he was a Itepub
lican. "If the story is true,” said Tho
man, "I assure you that the fnr will fly
The Civil Service laws will be enforced, il
it is in the power of the Commission.’
The Post says the current statements that
Mr. Keller will speedily be dispensed wit^
have no foundation. In fact, he will be al
lowed to serve his probationary term, and
if he proves a good, honest and effioieni
clerk be will be permanently appointed
The Department will take no cognizance ol
his past actions, and will not consider bi>
case again nuless he continues his offien
sive partisanship while holding office. In
that oase only will he be dismissed.
Tbe Mlreet-4'ar Strike In Ctilraxe.
Chicaoo, July 8.—The West Division
Street Railroad Company began moving
their cars on Madison Btreet this morning,
under the protection of & large force o!
police. A barricade had been erected ai
one point on the route, but tbe polict
charged the crowd using their clubs
freely,and two men were seriously injured
The police took the aggressive, aud as ii
was known they had orders to shoot, thf
erowd hesitated about becoming too de
monstrative. Arrests were made on every
hand of persous jeering, or in any way
seeking to create a disturbance, and the
male factions were carted off to the police
stations. Over one hundred arrests were
made. During the morning the cars made
one round trip successfully, and then
started on the second trip. Madison street
was densely thronged along its entire
length, bat a large foroe of police suc
ceeded in maintaining comparatively good
order. At noon tbe cars are still running.
| carrying, however, only policemen, and no
serious attaok has occurred.
• ue ( le uuioreak.
Wabhinotox, July 3.—Adjutant General
Drum has reoeived a report from General
Augur, from Fort Lavenworth, Judo 26, in
regard to the reported outbreak of the Ute
Indians in Colorado. General Augur Bays
Carlisle, from whom most of the sensa
tional telegrams come about the Indians,
is an agent of an English cattle syndicate,
not one of whom, he is informed, is an
American oitizen or intends to be. Be is
also informed that the syndicate does not
own the land upon which its cattle range,
and that it is publio land. General Augur
inclosed extracts from the Bocky Mount
ain Xews, of Denver, which say that the
stories of the Ute troubles are not entirely
without foundation and are grossly exag
gerated. Possibly there has been some
trouble, the General thinks, but there is
every reason to believe it has been brought
on by oowboys, who have been spoiling for
a fight for some time, and probably re
solved to shoot all Indians found away
rrom their reservation. The report that
whites and Indians have been killed laoks
sonfirmation.
A Horrible Crime,
Cmu, Fla., July 3.—A horrible murder
tnd house-burning oocurred yesterday
tear this plaoe. The only particulars ob
ainable are that about 3 p. m, a dense
moke was seen in the direction of J. O.
dathews' dwelling. A party of eitizens
rent out and found the house nearly
lurned down. Three bodiei were seen lu
the flames. A colored girl, 10 years old,
was lying near with her skull crushed, but >
able to speak a little. She says a party
came to the bouse and killed Martha
Lewis, Oracie Lewis and a baby, and tried
to kill her, and then set the house on fire. I
The names of the party are withheld until i
later, as they are not yet under arrest.
Mathews went north a few days ago leav
ing his bouse in charge of the Lewis fam
ily. The community is greatly excited
over the horrible crime. The victims are
all colored, and were honest, reliable peo
ple.
Appointments.
Wuhisotow, July 3.—The following ap
pointments were make by the President to
day: D. U. Ingraham, of Maine, to be
Consul at Cadiz; James Turner Lee, of
Maryland, Secretary of the Legation of the
United States to Austria. Messrs. J. R.
Moore, of Delaware, J. Wilson Bayard, of
Pennsylvania, and Julian Taylor, of Vir
ginia, were appointed to clerkships in the
Department of State. These gentlemen
passed Civil Service examinations, stand
ing at the head of a list of 30 applicants.
Mr. Bayard is a distant relative of Secre
tary Bayard, but was not known by that
official until after he bad passed the exam
ination. He is a recent graduate of
Princeton, and stood first in the examina
tion of applicants for State Department
vacancies. Judge Lambert Tree, of Illi
nois, has been appointed Minister to Bel
gium.
The Ohio Prohibitionists.
Springfield, Ohio, July 3.—The plat
form of the Prohibition party demands a
prohibition amendment, and opposes a
license tax or the regulation of the liqnor
traffic. It says the friends of prohibition
should not be controlled by either of the
old parties, becanse both have shown
themselves subservient to the liquor in
terests. It declares that the rum power
must be vanquished by a new party, de
voted expressly to that purpose. It de
scribes two wings of the great liquor party
—one as advocating lioense and the other
a taxation and regulation of the liquor
traffic, leaving no loyal citizens an alter
native except to join the Prohibition party.
It favors moral suasion as the means of re
form, and favors Civil Service Reform and
full protection of the ballot.
A Brntal Prize Fight.
Spbikofield, Mass., July 3.—Last night
a prize fight took place near Westfield.
The most noted men in Boston sporting
circles were present, and John L. Sullivan
was referee. The chief backers were
Patsy Sheppard and Jim KeenaD; the com
batants, a negro named Kelly and a white
man named Murphy. The bruisers had
finger gloves to start with, but alter a few
blows went at it knnckles bare. In this
condition 67 brutal rounds were fought,
each man trying to knock out his oppo
nent with a decisive blow. At last the
negro knocked his opponent senseless and
won the $600 stakes and about $1,500 for
bis backer, Sheppard.
