THE SPOKTIKG HEWS OP THE DAI
Fred Carroll, as already stated, in The
Dispatch, is in St. Louis. He is trying to
sign Bobinson, Brennan and Burns for the
Brotherhood League. Ed Swartwood and
Pitcher Blair made affidavits yesterday
about the former's case. Jockey Stone is to
be hanged next week.
BPECXJX 7XX.XOBJC TO THY DXfirXTCH.1
St. Louis, January 27. Fred Carroll,
the Pittsburg catcher, arrived in the city
to-day, and spent most of his time dodging
reporters. It was rumored that Carroll
was here for the purpose of investigating
the Brotherhood boom, but this appears to
be a mistake. The big blonde catcher was
corralled in Banberger's saloon to-night,
where he was discovered iu a serious con
ference with -'Billy" Bobinson and "Jack"
Brennan.
"1 did not come out here to investigate the
extent of the movement to place i. Brother
hood club in St. Louis," said lie. "because I
think St. Louis will not get a Brotherhood
club. That is unless some of the others quit,
and they don't look much like quinine now. I
am here as the agent of Al Johnson, of the
Cleveland club, and my business is to sign Rob
inson and Brennan for Cleveland. I expect to
leave in the morning, and when I leave I ex
pect to have their names signed to Brotherhood
contracts to play with the Cleveland club."
feed's fine bluff.
Carroll, Bobinson and Brennan had been in
consultation the entire day. Brennan is of the
opinion that the Athletics didn't give him an
opportunity last year to show what be could do,
and is ready and willing to sign with the
Brotherhood. He has been in correspondence
with Johnson, and bas agreed upon terms.
Bobinson has made up his mind to sign a
Brotherhood contract, but would rather play
with Ward's Brooklyn team than with Cleve
land. It is quito probable, however, that both
men will sign the contracts presented to them
by Carroll, which call for their services in
Cleveland.
From another source in this city, however,
and what appears to be reliable, Carroll is try
ine to get Bobinson for the Pittsburg club.
PREFERS BROOKLYN.
Bobinson has already pledged himself to
some extent to go to Cleveland and be does not
want to go there now. This fact has been
known for some timchence Carroll's appearnce
here to-day. He may get Brennan without
much trouble, but Bobinson is anxious to go to
Brooklyn, except he gets good inducements
from Pittsburg.
It was further stated at Banberger's to-night
that Carroll is after James Burns, of last sea
ton's Kansas City team. It is understood that
Barns is disnosed to join the Brotherhood
League if he can get into a good team.
WANTS HIM FOR FITTSBUBO.
Carrol, however, is trying to get Bobinson to
play second base for Pittsburg. A friend of
his stated this in Banberger's saloon this even
ing. There is little hope in this city of having a
Brotherhood team here. Information is being
constantly received to the effect that all the
clubs now in the circuit will stay. St Louis'
only hope now seems to be in Buffalo falling
out of line. There is plenty of money here for
a Brotherhood club, and were one to be organ
ized some of the very best players in the Asso
ciation would become members of it.
Yesterday afternoon an official of the local
Brotherhood Club stated that Carroll was in
Et. Louis trying to secure Robinson fortbencw
clno in this city and that the player would
likely come here, as he did not want to go to
Cleveland. This bears out the statement made
in The Dispatch the other dav to the effect
that Carroll was after a "big player" of St.
Louis.

His account of his trip to 'Frisco.
"How long are you going to stay in Boston?"
asked the newspaper man, to which the "only"
replied that he intended to leave for New York
to-morrow night.
"What chance is there of Billy Nash return
ing to the League?, as well as your self r'
"Why,'replled Kelly. "Nash and Richardson
arc the strongest Brotherhood men in the new
club, and vou can bank that they will stay right
where they are. As for myself, I see by a local
paper that 'Mr. Billings didn't care to take me
back, and President Soden is with them.' I
don't believe the statement is true, but if it is
they will change their mind before many
games. It is one thing to get a lot of cood play
ers on paper and still another thing to get out
and hit the ball. Why, this great player. Long,
was given a chance to show what he was made
ot with the Spalding party last tall, bat fell all
over him-elf."
"What effect will the decision in the Ward
case have on the boys?"
It may bother a few of them if it goes
against Ward, but how it will worry the League
If it goes against John B. Day. Ward's contract
was an exceptional one, and I won't be sur
prised to see Judge O'Brien give a temporary
injunction."
"Have vou signed with the Players' League?
Director Conant says you have not."
"Whj, my boy, I signed neeks ago, before go
ing to '.Frisco," was Kelly's ready answer.
MADE 1HE AFFIDIY1TS.
Swartwood and Blair Swear to Some Im
portant Bnacbnll Facia,
Ed Swartwood, the local baseball player,
means to push his case bof ore the National Ar
bitration Committee. Yesterday he received a
letter from President Phelps, of the American
Association, advising him to make out at once
an affidavit and forward it to President Young,
at the arbitration meeting, which convenes in
New Y'ork Jo-morrow.
Swartwood yesterday afternoon, accompa
nied by Pitcher Blair, visited the office of Al
derman McMisters and each made an affidavit
to the effect that Mr. Dickson, of the Hamilton
club, agreed to give bwartwood his release if
the latter would take 400 in salary instead of
f509. which was dnc him. The affidavits further
state that Dickson and Swartwood agreed that
ifthelatter's release was not bought from the
Hamilton club before or on December 1. 1SB9.
bwartn ood's name was to be stricken off the
club's reserve list. M r. Dickson has not carried
this arrangement out, hence trouble.
Without doubt Swartwood is in the right.
Tho Hamilton club bas been unable to sell his
release, and (against their own proposition they
still try to hold bim. Heretofore his word has
always been as good as his bond. The affidavits
vlll arrive in New York to-day.
Goinit to the ftlrctln?.
Secretary Scandrett, of theloc.il League club,
will leave for New York this evening to attend
the League meetings. Yesterday he was not
prepared to say what may be done at the meet
ings. He thinks that some important auestions
will be discussed, and said: "According to
custom I think the League will open its season
on April 21, with the West vs. West and East
ts. East. This will give Pittsbnrgers plenty of
baseball to start with."
A Very Frank fetntemenr.
' Ed Gumbert made quite a surprising state
ment yesterday, when talking about bis differ
ence with Manager Hanlon. He said: "Why,
Til tell you how mj contract wasn't acceptable.
I signed to play only with the Pittsburg club,
ana the other contracts are all made out to
mean Pittsburg or elsewhere. I don't think
there will be a club here.
Took Ibe Forfrlt Down.
John Qulnn yesterday took down the forfeit
of 2250 which be put up for Fogarty to fight any
I5S-pound man in the world. The forfeit has
been up a reasonable length of time and bas
been noticed all over the country. Nobody
feels disposed to cover it, and that fact may be
taken to mean that Jack Fogarty is considered
a dangerous man among the pugilts. Mr.
Qulnn says that Fogarty can be matched at
any tune against any of the middle weights.
GUILTY OF CRUELTY.
A Blow to Live Pigeon shooting- Decision
of Judge Terkes In a Famous Case

menu of the Defence.
ISPECIXI. TXLXOBXM TO TBB DISPATCH. 1
Dotxestowx, January 27. The somewhat
famous case of the Commonwealth against A.
Nelson Lewis, a member of the Philadelphia
Gun Club, who was indicted for cruelty to
animals for participating in a pigeon shooting
match on the grounds of the club at Anda
lusia, Bucks county, on December H, 18S7, was
concluded to-dy, when Judge Yerkes handed
down an opinion in which he declared the de
fendant cuilty as indicted.
The indictment under which the trial was
begun set forth the fact that Lewis, on the
date mentioned, fired with a gun upon certain
pigeons liberated from a trap, killing one and
wounding another. The bird so wounded
alighted upon a tree, and as soon as its
wounded condition was discovered It was
killed by a member of said club, for and on be
half of said defendant, according to the cus
tom of said club in regard to wounded birds.
The birds so killed were immediately sold for
food, according to the rule and custom of said
dab.
In his opinion, which is quite lengthy. Judge
Yerkes declares that the act of March, 1869,
under wnich the indictment was framed, is in
tended to bring all brnte creation under the
shelter of the law, and includes any animate
being which is not human, endowed with the
power of voluntary motion. "To make out the
offense," said the Judge, "the Commonwealtn
must show, first, that the pigeon was ill-treated
or abused; second.that the manner of the treat,
ment was wanton or cruel. One of the pigeons
was wounded and alighted upon a tree, and as
soon as its wounded condition was discovered
it was killed. Is it ill treatment or abuse to
wound a living creature so that it lingers in
that condition for a period long or short.
'The natural instinct, either for freedom or
for fear, would have impelled the bird which
the defendant wouuded to continue its flight,
had not the pain or exhaustion from the injury
prevented. We are clear that this lesult
amounted to ill-treatment and abuse In the
meaning of the statute."
The Judge brushed aside, as scarcely worthy
ot attention, the claim of the defense that
pigeon shooting was au exercise that should be
encouraged, as tending to promote strength and
courage, and to render the citizens more
efficient for those services which he may be
called upon to render the State in time of war,
and concluded by saying: "The offense is
against the public morals, which the commis
sion of cruel and barbarous acts tends to corrupt"

ISFXCIAt. TELEGRAM TO TBB DISPATCII.1
Mabtin's Febry, O., January 27. This
place bas a real ghost, or at least quite a
number of persons are willing to stake their
reputations on it Within the past few
weeks several people have been badly
frightened by his or her ghostship, and one
of them, Mrs. Harry Bibold, is in a very
serious condition as a result of some of tbe
terrifying manifestations of the ghost.
A large two-story brick house, corner of
Second and Monroe streets, is the place
where the strange apparition appears. Since
the death of the former occupant of the
house, August Bothermund, iu September
last, no person has been able to live in the
house on account of the strange noises in the
dead of night. The first person to notice the
ghost was a daugbter-ln-law of the dead man.
One night she was alone in the house when she
saw and heard the water pitcher in her room
dance in the bowl. A few nights later the
ghost walked up the front stirwaj, through the
hall and down tbe back stairs, the footsteps
being distinctly heard. Since that time fre
quent visitations bave been made, and the
Bothermnnds moved out of the house. Tho
next family, that of John Morgan, a sheet
roller at tbe -Etna mill, had tbe same experi
ence. Upon several occasions the covers were
pulled off the bed in which Mrs. Morgan was
sleeping.
Mrs. Morgan says the ghost bas played on the
organ, tbe window shutters have swung open,
the water pitcher has danced, locked doors
opened and many other strange demonstations
bave taken place. The Morgans quit tbe bouse
and a family named Ribold moved in. They
bad the same experience as their predecessors.
Mrs. Ribold, who was in delicate health, was so
badly frightened by the strange midnight visi
tor that she is now in a critical condition. Sev
eral other persons say they are willing to testify
to tbe above. All superstitions people in the
neighborhood are very much agitated. A
crowd of men are talking of lying in wait for
tne gnosi ana capturing it it possioie.

will remain Knights of Labor as will the Pro

Erie, January 27. The supposed burglar
whom Select Councilman J. C. Williams found
at his window at a late hour Saturday night,
fired upon and captured, turns out to have been
F. L. Angler, a Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern fireman. Angler had met a young
lady at the skating rink and walked with her
to what he supposed was h-r home. The young
woman slipned around tbe houso to which she
had escorted Angler and made her escape.
It was while attempting to attract her atten
tion, as he supposed her to be in the house,
that he worked at the window. The hoax not
only came nigh costing Angier his life, but it
required the kindly offices of Lake Shore
officials to etabli3h the joung man's reputa

a charge of attempted burglary as a sequel to
his flirtation.

Punxsutawnet, Pa., January 27. The
Sheriff evicted 19 families at Walston and
Adrian to-day, and seven on Saturday. There
was no excitement. The miners appear to be
getting used to it. Eleven teams were kept
busy all day hauling their goods away. The
merry-go-round amphitheater and the fair
erronnd buildings here have been secured by the
Knights of Labor to store the eoods. The
miners do not seem at all discouraged by the
wholesale evictions, and accept the situation
cheerfully. A number of Italians, whose goods
had been thrown out, were to be seen to-day
sitting around a stove which had been set up in
the open air, playing accordeons, dancing and
singing and enjoying themselves right royally.
On Saturday it was thought the strike was
broken, as a large number of Italians and Hun
garians at Adrian had asked for checks to go
to wort, but onSunday their countrymen from
Walsteln, numbering about 300, marched over
to Adrian playing bagpipes and frightened
them out of it. The miners are holding out
heroically for what they consider a principle
the right to belong to the Knights of Labor
and many of them say tbey would starve be
fore they would consent to abandon it. The
strikers are receiving the support or their
brother miners m other localities, and the pres
ent condition of the relief fund gives them
from SI 60 to W 50 per week, according to the

May Take Hold or the Plant of an Insol
vent Glass Firm.
IBPICIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
Beaveb Falls. Pa. January 27. The clos
ing of the Whitla Glass Works this morning
by tbe Sheriff was not much of a surprise to
the people here, as it was well known that the
concern has been struggling under financial
difficulties for some time. Owing to the failure
in gas tbe furnace had to be changed to use
coal, and thii necessitated a big outlay of
money. Several assessments were made, and
finally the small stockholders refused to pay
any more, and those who had advanced money
to tide the concern over its difficulties issued
on it to protect themselves. The names of the
parties who issued are W. A. McCool,
Dan H. Stowe, Simon Harrold, Henrici
F. Woefal, John C. Whitla, J. P. Stowe, W. H.
llroetenstlne, H. C Patterson J. L. B. Rewes,
Robert 31. Campbell, Henry Bloom and John
M. Hughes. It is said the total amount of the
failure is 60.000.
One hundred and seventy-five men and boys
are thrown out of employment. Tbe works are
in splendid running order, and bave a number
of large orders on band. A meeting of the di
rectors will be held to-morrow, and tbe affairs
of the concern will be put into the hands of
three liquidating trustees. It is rumored that
Pittsburg parties will take tbe works, and that
tbey will be running again inside of a month.
TBE CLOSING ARGUMENT.
That Gubernatorial Contest is Now In the
Hands of ibo Leglilntnre.
rSPZCIAL TELEOKAM TO THE DlnPATOTT.l
Chablestown. W. Va., January 27. The
Gubernatorial Court met again this morning to
listen to the continuation and conclusion of
General J. W. St. Clair's argument, closing the
presentation of tbe contest before tbe joint as
sembly. Mr. St. Clair took the floor immedi
ately after the joint assembly had been called
to order, and spoko until about 1 o'clock. The
first half of the speech was confined entirely to
the consideration of the contested votes iu the
counties of Mercer and McDowell, he taking
up the cases individually, and explaining and
defending tbe action of the majority of tbe
committee. He was frequently interrupted by
General Goff or Mr. Hubbard, and at times the
debate was spicy.
The concluding portion of his speech was of
a political nature and designed apparently to
justify the entire contest proceeding and at
the same time thoroughly solidify the Demo
cratic members. The Democrats are enthu
siastic in praising his effort, holding that his
arguments were simply unanswerable, and that
tbe stand taken bv General Goff and bis coun
sel n as most successfully controverted. The
Republicans go to the other extreme this even
ing and say the speech as simply an apology
for a wrong.
A NATURAL GAS FIGHT.
Tronble Between n Slaniifnetnrlnc Firm and
ibe Furl Supply Company.
rFPyCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIRPATCrt. '
Johnstown, January 27. A somewhat in
teresting contest has been going on for a little
time between the Johnson Company, of Mox
ham, and tbe Westmoreland and Cambria
Natural Gas Company. Friday last Superin
tendent Carter telephoned out to the Johnson
company that he had received telegraphic or
ders from Pittsburg to shut off the gas from
their works. On being asked for a reason he
was unable to give one. and as the contract for
gas stipulated a nve-davs' written notice, tbe
Johnson company refused to allow the gas to
be shut off.
Superintendent Carter, of the gas company,
proceeded to tbe works and expressed his in
tlonof shotting off the gas whether tbe com
pany liked It or not, and upon his proceeding to
do so was forcibly ejected from the premises.
Later in the evening Carter returned, and with
tbe assistance of some one who bas not yet
been identified, got into the works and at tho
point of a pistol turned off the gas. Men had
been placed at the gashouse. the company an
ticipating some such effort, but never dreamed
of being confronted with pistols. Legal pro
ceedings will probably be commenced by both
companies.
A TniEP TRIES SUICIDE.
Another DInn Is Now In iho Insane Asylam
Because of the Crime.
SPECIAL TELEOKAM TO THE DI8PATCH.I
Youngstown, January 27. This afternoon
word was received at the Sheriffs office from
Coldwater, Mich , stating that Wm. W. Ninson
had shot himself and would probably die. Nin
son was formerly agent of tbe United States
Express Company here. One night a package
of S7.500 was missing from the office. DaL P.
Mikesell, cashier in the office, was accused, but
he protested his innocence, and he was not ar
rested. The accusation drove Mikesell insane,
and he is now in the Ohio lusane Asylum, a
hopeless lunatic. Ninson removed to Coldwa
ter, and recently confeved to tbe company that
he was the thief and Mikesell was innocent.
Mikesell left the key in tbe safe one evening
and Ninson, securing an impression, made a
duplicate key, with which he opened tbe safe
and secured the package. Tbe money he sent
to bis brother in Michigan, sending it through
tbe mails as old paper. Relatives of Mikesell
caused an indictment to bo found against Nin
son, charging him with embezzlement. Tho
officials at Coldwater were notified to arrest
Ninson. When captured Ninson became des
perate and concluded to shuffle off by the
revolver route. At last accounts Ninson was
still living.
MARRIED AND DESERTED.
Another Addition to the List of Victims of the
Matrimonial Asrnclrs.
Lima, O., January 27. This morning a very
nice appearing young married lady arrived
here from tbe West on tbe Fort Wayne road,
and going to the Hotel French, inquired if a
man answering a certain description had
breakfasted there several mornings since. She
was informed that be bad. She said tbe man
was her husband and his name wasGustavR.
Wells. In explanation she said six months ago
she answered a matrimonial advertisement in
a Chicago paper from her home in Davenport,
la., and made an engagement to meet Wells in
that city, and in a few weeks they were mar
ried. She was an orphan but had managed to save
S1.200. Wells had got possession of this
money, she hllegedL and then deserted her.
She went on East this afternoon in pursuit of
him.

Workers of Washington.
A TASK THAT TELLS ON THEM.
Each One Given Forty Badly Torn Mail
Sacks to Mend Every Day.
THE T1TUSTILLE POSTOFPICE CABE
Bo Nearer a Settlement Because of the Retirement
of Bloss.
A pathetic story is told in a "Washington
paper of tbe hardships of 65 women who,
for 30 a month apiece, toil eight hours
daily, mending torn mail bags. They have
to mend 40 a day or give up the work. The
task is described as a very difficult one.
TheTitnsville postoffice muddle is no nearer
solution because of Mr. Bloss' retirement.
rntou A STArr correspondent.
Washington, January 27. The Sterl
ing Capital, which has been purchased by
three very clever yonng newspaper men,
who have changed its name back to the
original one of the Critic, signalize thelrad
veut by calling the attention of Postmaster
General "Wanamaker, "the Christian advo
cate and exponent of the golden rule," to
the condition of the women who repair the
Government mail bags. Its story is a long
and pathetic one, and is not in the least
overdrawn. The following extracts contain
the gist of the expose, which has created a
good deal of gossip:
"In the third story of a building once
used as a carriage repository on C street,
between Four and a Half and Sixth, north
west, sit 65 women from 8 A. M. to 4 P. 31,,
almost obscured in a blinding, stifling cloud
of dust, plying their needles the livelong
day, repairing torn and dilapidated mail
sacks. There is no conversation among
them. There is no time to lose in talking.
A task is imposed upon them which tbey
must fulfill or get out. Each one must re
pair 40 bags a day.
A POSITIVE STINT.
It matters not whether the bag has a
small rent in it, or whether it is rioped
from top to bottom. It must be mended.
If a woman gets slightly damaged bags to
mend, and she can do 50 a day, it's her good
fortune. If she gets badly torn ones, and
finds it impossible to keep up the record of
40 bags a day, it is her misfortune, and she
must give way for some one else. The bags
are he.ivy.filthily dusty,hard to manage.but
the women toil away, bending silently over
their work, while only a backing cough
breaks the silence now and then, telling
only too well that the stifling dust is afiect
ing their lung. Por this they get the pal
try pay of 530 a month. If, by good for
tune, a woman can do more than 40 bags a
day, she is allowed 3 cents additional for
each bag.
"The suffering that is caused sometimes is
hard to realise. The women bend in a
strained position for hoars over tbe dnsty
bags, with the dnst going to their lungs,
their hands torn by the ragged edges or the
bags, and cut by the coarse twine used for
thread, while they have to exert almost a
man's strength to pull the needle through at
times.
DBIVEN TVOBSE THAN SLAVES.
"One worker was overcome by a hem
orrhage, one day, while bending over her
work, and bad to be helped to the dressing
room. This is a dark retreat, ventilated
from the top by a trap-door, the walls coarse
duck, nailed on posts. It is crnel irony to
call it a dressing-room. Tbe women
are driven as no slaves were ever
driven. The fear of dismissal is con
stantly before them. It is 'forty bags or
go.' In cases of 'culled,' or selected bags,
this can be done, but when one receives half
a dozen bags with great rents in them, it is
out of the question. Sometimes it takes a
half and even three-quarters ot an hour to
mend one bag. It is a physical impossibil
ity to keep up tbe average of 40 with so
much time spent on a few bad ones.
"Not long since a woman who has two
fatherless children dependent on her was
called up aud told that her work was below
the average. It- was midday, on the last
day of the month 'Yon are 32 bags behind
your number,' she was told. She had half
a day in nhich to make it up. If she failed
dismissal awaited her. She tottered back
to her seat, nearly overcome with fear. 'I
shall do it; I must do it or starve,' she cried
in augnish.
AIDED BT GOOD LUCK.
"Doubtless some good angel stirred the
heart of the distributor to lavor ber, for she
succeeded in accomplishing the task. Bnt
the strain, the worry and the exertion were
too much. The next day she took to her
bed, and has been lying at death's door in
consequence. TJncle Sam had obtained his
due, bnt it was almost at the cost of a human
life." Lightneb.

tVEOM A STAFF CORRESPONDENT.!
Washington. January 27. The contest
over the Titusville postoffice is hardly made
more favorable to Congressman Culbertson
by the retirement of W. H. Bloss from the
field, and the broad indorsement, by nearly
all the straight Eepublicans, of Major Ii. L.
Sbattuc. Indorsements of Shattnc bave been
filed at the Postoffice Department from Col
onel Carter, E. O. Emerson, Hon. "Willis
Benedict, "VV. H. Bloss, and many others,
and the Major has tbe strong support of
the Chairman of the Republican State Com
mittee, who, as most Pennsylvania Eepub-
cans here seem to think, should be accorded
the courtesy of being permitted to have
something to say abont the appointment ot
his home postmaster.
The charge against Gilmor, or one of the
charges, is that be is a Mugwump, of the
kind that Mr. Culbertson seems determined
to pnt into office wherever he can, to main
tain the organization of the "William L.
Scott Eepublicans, in the Northwest dis
district. Protests are on file from many
leading EepublicanB of Titusville, rehears
ing Gilmor's dislovalty to the party, and
his record ns a "kicker when he was a cit
izen of McKean county is recited in unmis
takable terms for the benefit of the Post
master General.
Mr. "Wanamaker is quoted as having said
that he did not see how he conld pass over
the recommendation of the Congressman of
the district, even for the Chairman ol the
committee, bnt if this be true, which is
donbtfnl, it is certainly very incousistant,
as he has shown a similar courtesy to other
officials of State orgamzatious, in spite of
the claims ol Congressmen, and his excuses
for refusing to recognize Hon. John Dalzell,
in the Pittsburg contest, was that he
thought the Chairman of the National Com
mittee should be heeded in the matter,rather
than the Congressman.
The fight at Titusville rivals that at
McKeesport, and is growing hotter every
dav. Major Shattnc's iriendsare determined
to push him for all he is worth, and to leave
no stone nntnrned to defeat Gilmor. As
Shattuc is an old soldier, with a tine record,
and is personally very popular, it is possi
ble Culbertson may yet be defeated.

COLUMBUS, O., January 27. E. B.
Haves has broken tbe rule of his life since
retiring from the "White Honse, and come
from the seclusion of his chicken farm at
Fremont to dabble in politics. It is laugh
able that in so doing he has run squarely
against Senator Sherman, between
whom, President Harrison and
himself there is now a triangular
quarrel over the appointment of a pension
agent for Ohio to succeed Captain Gil Bar

Hayes has a nephew, General John G.
Mitchell, in Columbus, whom he wants ap
pointed to this position, while Mr. Sherman
has promised State Senator Cole that he
may have the place.
Mr. Hayes indignantlyreminds the Presi

asked at the hands of this or any other ad
ministration since he left the Presidental
chair. In that condition tbe matter stands,
and no appointment is made It is evi
