Herbert Welsh, Secretary of the Lincoln Independ ent Republican Committee, has sent the fol lowing letter to Robert T. Lincoln, Minister of the United States to the Court of St James, in answer to the one sent by Minis ter Lincoln to Chairman Andrews, of the Republican State Committee, an"3 which was recently published in The Dispatch: bin A letter from you relative to the present campaign in Pennsjlvania, written In answer to a letter from Chairman Andrews which has not been published, has recently appeared in the public press. You express in this letter deep regret that abody of citizens who are seelnng the defeat of the regular Republican candidate for Governor should have adopted the name of j our illustrious father as the title of their or ganization. You say: "I don't believe in the sincerity of men claiming to be Republicans ho in a campaign aid the enemy because tbe majority of the convention has refused to submit to their dictation, nor in the soundness of a position which is based on the assumption of representing the opinions of Republican leaders who can no longer speak for them selves." TJie Growth of the Movement. Before replying to these statements let me express to you and to others who may read these words gratification at tbe fact that a movement which was begun toward the close of tho past summer by half a dozen gentlemen of this community, mainly with tbe intention of recording a protest against the. intolerable evils of machine politics in Pennsylvania, and with no serious thought ot present success, ehoula, within so brief a period, have reached proportions sufficient to alarm the managers of a powerful party, counting in this State under ordinary conditions a majority of from 50,000 to 80,000, and to compel them in their local con test to cry for aid to a foreign minister at tbe Court ot St. James. That such an appeal for help should have traversed 3,000 miles of sea will furnish as much encouragement to the Lincoln Independ ent Republicans in their battle with the enemies of free Institutions as any appeal that we could mate to the reason and conscience of our fellow citizens. A Good Reason for Silence. Why Mr. Andrews did not publish the letter which he wrote you it the same time that he made public your letter to him is now clear. His letter would have revealed the fact that be has deceived you as to the real character and position of those who advisedly called them selves Lincoln Independent Republicans. That you have been so deceived is manifest by the internal evidence of your letter. We are not men who in a campaign aid the enemy because the majority in the convention refuse to submit to our dictation. In the con vention referred to we had no voice, or the verdict of that assembly might have been dif ferent. We are men, however, who seek the electiun of a candidate who had already proved himself honest, just and faithful to the Consti tution. We seek tho defeat of his opponent because the Republican convention failed to act ac cording to tbe dictates of its own conscience, because it refused to record the will of its con stituents and bowed to the command of a man who has for years been tbe dictator of the Re publican party in this State. Sot Disappointed Politicians. The men who have been misrepresented to you as disappointed and revengeful politicians are free citizens, who number in their organi zation 124 members. They are drawn from all honorable pursuits and professions, commerce manufactures, trade, divinity, law and medi cine. Behind these names which have been : recorded in our protest are thousands and still increasing thousands ot Republicans who de mand a government of the people, by the people ana for the people, a government which our fathers gave us, and which your father lived and died to save, rathe' than that wholly of free institutions, that ancient tyranny with a modern name, which had its root in the spoils system, and which is known by the odious title of "Ring Rule." "Boss Rule" and the "Ma chine." Were you closer to the scene of the present contest or were you more intimately acquaint ed with the history of Pennsylvania politics I doubt not that 3 ou would recognize in the per petuation of Quay Republicanism and in the election ot the Quay candidate for Governor a sufficiently serious menace to those Republican principles which Abraham Lincoln expounded so clearly and represented so nobly, as would lead you to justify us in adopting so drastic a remedy for our present disease as open revolt Acting for the PubJic WeaL You would at least see that our position is taken neither with the fear of losing office nor tbe hope of gaining it, bnt that we act solely in the interest of primitive Republicanism and lor me puoiic weal. You further say you can not agree in the soundness or a position which is based on an assumption of representing the opinions of Republican leaders, who can no longer speak for themselves. Your father, my dear sir, be it said in all sincerity and rever ence, was one of that goodly company of martyrs and of prophets who, "being dead yet speak." You do him less honor than we to suppose tbe contrary. Neither the lapse of years nor tbe debasement of tbe name which his speech and acts made glorious, can silence ills words in the hearts of the American people. Neither the words nor the counsels of Abraham Lin coln are of private or familiar interpretation. They are the common property of tbe nation. When we attack the spoils system of govern ment, of which Mr. Quay and his lieutenants, Messrs. Andrews, Cooper, Martin and Leeds, are the living and tangible examples, we have the sanction of Abraham Lincoln lor onr posi tion, sines he Mid In substance, if this country eTtr goes down it will not be from the assault of a foreign foe, but under the wiggle pb& scramble for office. Reasons for Choosing the Name. And when ire rise in tbe strength of out rased citizenship to protest against the elec tion of a candidate selected two years prenons to the meeting of tbe convention which nom. inally chose him, by autocratic will of a party boss a candidate who even by the confession of some of his personal supporters has failed satisfactorily to explain accusations against his official record, we have again the justification of your father's word in his immortal speech at Gettysburg, where be calls on us highly to resolve that these dead shall not have died in rain; that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that "government of the people, by the people and for tbe people shall not perish from the earth." The present serious dangers which menace in this State such a government are to onr minds and those of that free constituency which we represent sufficient justification tor our choice of tbe name of Lincoln in this fight. TO WORK THE CLERGY. ONE OF THE LATEST FEATURES OF THE STATE CAMPAIGN. A Methodist Divine Engaged by the Dela mater Committee to Labor Among His Brethren Kev. J. Franklin Core's let ter to be Counteracted by Him. ISrrciAL TELEGRAM TO THE D18PATCH.1 Philadelphia, October 22. Two years ago the Methodist Conference of Central Pennsylvania stationed the Rev. A. L. Shields at Lewisburg, partly on account of his execntive tact in bnilding np a parish and partly because of his talents as a preacher. -Since then, through the munifi cence ot Mr. Samuel Bearer, the head and front of the Montour Iron Works at Dan ville, an extraordinary fine church has been built at Lcwisbnrg, at a cost of 5100,000, and when the edifice was dedicated, May 14 last, three bishops and a phalanx of clergy men occupied the platform to assist Sir. Shields in the honors of opening day. Bnt the Rev. A. L. Shields is engaged in an other pursuit outside that of hia holy call ing. He has become an important part in tbe campaign this year,?and in the ways and means by which Mr; Delamater hopes to become the next Governor. In -order to be better instructed in the duties expected from him, and with a desire to have an equipment of material assistance in the work, the Rev. Mr. Shields called -at the Republican State Central Committee rooms to-day. There he met extra-Chairman Cooper, who appeared to know that Mr. Shields held a particular commission from Senator Quay, the terms of which called for tbe conversion of ministers who had determined to vote for Pattison this year, even though they are not saying so openly. Rev. W. L. Shields, of Lewisburg, admits that he is Quay's agent to look in upon the Methodist ministry wherever they are to be fonnd, and, by persuasive tactics, bring about a feeling lor Delamater that does not now exist He says that Mr. Patti son is very strong among the Methodists "who realise lhat his example at Harris burg was worthy the trne Christian he is known to be. They knew him as a constant attendant at Grace Church, and as a class leader whom everyone admired." But Mr. Shields, while declining to give reasons against Mr. Pattison, believes that Mr. Delamater is entitled to the Governorship, and we are in dnty bound to elect him. Mr. Shields admitted that he has been ap plying his energies in the capacity of cler ical politicianjto counteract the open letter of Rev. J. Franklin Core, the Wiikinsburg divine who says that Governor Pattison made a record as Governor any man could be proud of. He says that "the Core letter is a campaign document we are betrinnin? I to appreciate for it isdoing great mischief." xeiure me conversation orew to a close Jur. Shields paid his respects to Charles 8. Wolfe, whom he defined as "that foolish man without a future." DELAMATER IS CONFIDENT. He Says the Tlctory is -Already Won, and rigurcs Only on the Majority. iETECIAt. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Philadelphia, October 22. Burmont, Delaware county, was in a blaze of glory this morning. Senator George W. Dela mater aud party arrived. Next a special train bore the party to Media, where Sena tor Delamater,was met by ex-Judge Broom all in a coach and fonr and driven to the Conrt House. Time was precious, but the Senator made a short speech. The victory, he said, was already won, and the only question yet unsolved was whether or not the majority shonld be 20,000, 50,000 or 75,000. Addresses were made by Henry K. Boyer, Senator Watres, Thomas J. Stewart, Collector Cooper and Isaac Johnson, when in response to deafening shouts lor a speech, Senator John B. Robinson arose and made a few re marks. He appealed to his friends to stand by the head of the ticket. "If the knife was thrust at all," said Robinson, "put it into me, but do not strike at Delamater." Immediately after the meeting Senator Delamater was taken in charge by Joseph H. Baldwin, Chairman of thej Republican Execntive Committee of Chester couutv and the special whirled off to Kennett Square, West Grove, Walker's Grove and West Chester. From West Chester Mr. Delamater came to this city, where he at tended a number of ward meetings to-night, PATTISON A-FAV0R1TE. Immense Crowds Gather to Hear the Ex Governor's Speeches. rSrECIAX TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Toek, October 22. The Democratic Gubernatorial party was met at the railroad station by a large crowd, which warmly greeted ex-Governor Pattison. The ex Governor and Governor Beaver arrived on the same train, ami while en route to this place they had an apparently pleasant talk together. The Court House was secured for tbe meeting, and in a few minutes it was crowded to the doors by people from all sections of this county, and many were unable to gain admission, and'another meet ing had to be organized to accommodate the overflow. Mayor Noel presided at the meeting in tbe Court House, and. after a brief speech, introduced W. S. Stenger, who dwelt particularly on the serious charges made against Delamater by Republicans and the purity of, the administration of Governor Pattison. The ex-Governor fol lowed in an address which not only re ceived close attention, but evoked much ap plause. The reception accorded the ex-Governor was most enthusiastic. While tbe Court House meeting was in progress a large crowd was entertained in Center square. At this meeting speeches were made by ex-Governor Pattison, B. F. Myers, of Harrisburg; Major Veale, of Philadelphia; H. F. Keenan, Seranton; D. F. Fortney. LEFT IT TO THE SHERIFFS. Novel Method of Settling the Senatorial Deadlock at Warren. rerr.ciAL teleoeajc to the dispatch. Wabben, Pa., October 22. The Sena torial conference has reached another point in its deliberations. Last night it was agreed by the candidates and conferees to refer the whole subject of a nomination to arbitration and disenssion to the Sheriffs of Butler, Lawrence and Armstrong counties. These gentlemen are O. C. Redic, S. W. Bell and W. W. Fiscus. They Jiet to-night in Oil City. This method of settlement is a novel one. and looks verr much like leaving tbe voters I ot the Senatorial district entirely out of ac- J count. The Sheriff:, at midnight, decided upon the nomination of W. B. Crawford, of Franklin, over ex-Senator 0. 0. Allen, of "Warren. NO DOUBT ABOUT 1PMA5ES.

Pattl 'son, tbe Democratic candidate for Governor. Mr. McMancs was to-day shown a dispatch from Pittsburg which read: "Don Cameron left for Philadelphia this morning. It is said he expects to pull McManes back to Delamater." After carefully reading the dipatcHMr. McManes, with "a smile upon bis face, said in a slow and deliberate manner: "Don won't pull me, nor will anybody else pull me. I am working, though. I would have declared myself if it had not been for sev eral Republican and Democratic friends of mine in this city, who advised against it for the reason that I had lots of friends in the Republican party whose friendship I might lose. I say to you," continued the bolting leader, "that Delamater is not in the fight, and only to-day I heard that Quay's people were advising their iriends not to bet on tbe result; Delamater's not in it, and I know it" It is understood that nearly all the old time followers of the old leader will join him in the effort to defeat the head of the Republican ticket, and the Pattison leaders declare now that their candidate will be elected by a handsome majority.

Governor Hill addressed a monster open air meeting. He said: Your district is a great wheat and pork pro dncing country.

Frenchmen Seriously Thinking of Retaliat ing Against America. IBT DUNI.AP'B CABLB COMPACT.) Paeis, October 22. The following is an authentic statement of the views of the French Government on the tariff question: The first impression in France on the pass age of the McKinley bill was in favor of yielding and withdrawing tbe prohibition on pork, and in that way to avert reprisals, but this has now changed. The Foreign Minister, M. Ribot, represents that his pro tectionist constituency is adverse to the im portation of American pork, and moreover a strong impression has been produced by the reports received from Mr. Max Leclere.a special correspond ent in America, that nothing is to be hoped from America even if France yields. He thinks the President would not dare to ex ercise the powers granted by the Edmunds bill, and France might therefore have re course to reprisals, viz.: She must exact for American merchandise imported into France certificates of its origin aud guar antees of its authenticity. This course will first be applied to tbe lard and also the petroleum which is being introduced as crude and thus escapes the higher duty, whereas it is already refined. M. Ribot will not immediately revoke the decree which prohibits tbe importation of pork, bnt will' insist that guarantees be furnished of its having undergone a sanitary examination in the United States. As he believes this will be impossible on account of the rapidity of the preparation of pork in Chicago, he will thus have grounds for re fusing to suppress the decree of the prohibi tion.

The Reichsanzeiger to-day publishes an explanation of the origin of the recent report that the German admin istration at Bagamoyo had issued a decree authorizing slavery. It seems that Arabs had sent a petition to the Germans asking that facilities be given for the sale of slaves, on the gronnd that otherwise they would be unable to cultivate their lands. In some way a cony of the petition became posted as a proclamation, and upon this were based the false accusations made against the Germans.

The Hamilton county delegation in the Legislature and the other political enemies of Governor Campbell concede to-night the bill provid ing a non-partisan Board of Improvements ata Cincinnati will pass tbe House and become a law. They are uncertain whether it can be accomplished to-morrow, as those favoring the bill are unable to sus pend the rules to save time, though they have votes to spare on its passage. The feeling is strong against Campbell, and the members who nave suffered defeat by his combination with the Republicans claim he is politically dead in tbe State. The Iriends or Campbell take directly the opposite position.

The Proven-zano-Matrango vendetta trial came npin tbe Criminal District Court to-day. It ts to this case that the killing of Chief Hennessy is attributed, and it first aroused the popular prejudices against the Italians, their ven detta, etc. As telegraphed to-day, both the District Attorney and the counsel for de fense united in asking for a continuance of the case on the ground that it would be un wise to try it now in the present excited condition of the public aulnd in regard fo Italians. The fear was entertained that some one would imitate Duffy's example and shoot a prisoner. Jndge Marr granted tbe continuance with some relnctance. It has been rnmored to-day that some of the prisoners weakened, and were disposed to turn State's evidence. If this is so it will be the first time it has ever occurred in Italian trials here. Some letters were found last night among Hennessy's effects of a threatening charac ter, which may throw some light on the source from which emnity to him led to the assassination. FREE ONCE MORE.

J THE STOBIE3 OF ABUSE. f He gotjthejname of Connt by marrying an Italian Conntess who was yet in her teens, and who had died before she reached the age of maturity, on account of which her husband lost her estate, which was a mag nificent and lucrative one. After their marriage they visited a number of the prin ciple cities of Europe, but tbe yok was be coming,burdensome to the Italian and when they reached Paris he created a sensation by severely abusing his wife who had to seek the protection of the landlord of the hotel. This was not the only time the Count abnsed his wife, and it became so fre quent that she at last left him. The Connt, nnabashed by the notoriety given him by the papers, handed around on the streets of this city circulars detrimental to his wife's character. For this he was arrested, and for this he is serving a term in prison. SECURED A BESIDENCE. The Countess secured legal aid, and on the advice of Messrs. Rawle and Warwick took up her residenoe in this city. This was not considered absolutely necessary, as she was born in Pennsylvania and has lived here nearly all her life, but as she took up her home in a foreign country for a short time it was deemed best to have her live here for one year before any action for divorce shonld be begun. The year has now ex pired, aud the suit has been brought While the counsel will not tell their plan of procedure it is generglly thought that a number of cases of cruel treatment 'which have never been known will be brought to light REACHING FOR FOREIGN EXHIBITS. v Secretary Blaine Especially Interested In South American Co-Operation. New Yobk, October 22. A joint meet ing of the affairs of tne World's Fair Com mission met in this city to-day. New Xork is henceforth to be the headquarters of the committee, and this was their first meeting. Gustavus Goward was confirmed as repre sentative of the commission to Japan, and Romayn Hitchcock representative to China. The committee's time was occupied prici pally with a recommendation by W. F. Cnrtis, of the State Department, that army and navy officers should be detailed by the South American countries to do their ut most toward making the exhibits from those countries what they should be. He also suggested the establishment of a bureau at Washington, and read a letter from Secre tary Blaine urging the importance of the matter and stating that it wasn't at all over estimated.

Libebtt, Mo., October 22. George Smith, of this place, while walking on the track of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railway, near here, surprised lour men at work engage? in loosening the rails. He informed the police, but the would-be wreckers had disappeared when they ar rived on tbe ground. They were evidently preparing to wreck the Burlington pas senger train. Great excitement exists in this locality over tbe discovery, and it is greatly in creased by the result of the Coroner's in vestigation into the Chicago, Milwaukee and St Paul wreck. The verdict returned was that Wright, the victim, came to his death from the result of injuries received in the wreck, caused by some person or per sons unknown. The evidence showed that the spikes had been drawn from one rail and tbe rail displaced, being held out of proper position by a crowbar. The Sheriff of this county, assisted by the railroad company's detectives, is on the ground and will' attempt to apprehend the wreckers. Engineer Cullen died of his injuries late this afternoon. NATIONAL POLITICS IH MNIATUBE. Speaker Reed Ontdone by a City Council Presiding Officer. Detroit, Mich., October 22. At last evening's session of the City Council there was considerable controversy between the Democrats and Republicans as to the ap pointment of election board chairmen and other matters pertaining to the coming elec tion. The Republicans were in the min-i ority, with a President in the chair. During the midst of the controversy a motion was made to adjourn, and the President declared the Council adjourned. Then followed a scene which has become famous in the National Legislature. The Democrats put one of their number in the chair and proceeded to business, and fol lowed an historical precedent by unseating one of tbe Republican Aldermen, who has moved from his ward while his home is un dergoing repairs: The President pro tern, counted the Republican- members as assent ing to all motions, and the-election board chairmen were duly appointed by the Dem ocrats. The affair has created considerable furore in Jocal circles, and the outcome will be watched with interest Bankers Organize a Union. Memphis, TENN.,October 22.

Lawbence, Kan., October 22. The ladies of the local W. C. T. TJ. adopted a novel but wholly ineffective method to-day of closing tbe original package house of Henry Fritzel, who recommenced business when the announcement was made of the noted original package decision. The local W. C. T. TJ. appointed a committee with unlimited authority to take whatever steps they considered advisable and effective to close the saloons. The committee was composed of 12 ladies, headed by Mrs. F. S. Grnbb, State lecturer. They went in a body to the saloon early this morning and attempted to persuade Fritzel to close his place. He declined, and then the ladies annonnced their intention of stay ing all day and making hourly appeals to him to stop his business. When it became known that the women were trying to close the place, a great crowd was attracted to tbe place. The supply of original packages held out not quite an hour, but the crowd thronged the place all day. Each hour the ladies, who had brought their prayer books and hymnals with them, held a brief prayer meeting, and pleaded with the proprietor of tbe saloon to close the place. Fritzel was obdurate, and, although he had sold every drop of original package fluid, he refused to close the place. The women remained all day. and did not cease their labors until 6 p. M. They say they will continue their crusade until they persuade Fritzel to quit business. WISHES IT SETTLED. Attorney General of Kansas Wants the Original Package Case Advanced.

Mr. Hutchinson entered the bar room of the hotel at 8 o'clock. At 10 o'clock the famous speculator was singing songs, and it became necessary for the bar tender to close the doors leading to the office so tbe noise would not disturb the other guests. Then Hutch began to abuse the young man. The latter asked the millionaire speculator to keep quiet, and, receiving only a fresh volley for a reply, he jumped at him, fastening his fingers in the old man's coat collar, lifting him to his feet Then, shifting one hand to the region of his coat tails, he began a forward movement that only ended at the foot of tbe stairs leading to tbe alley behind the open board of trade. The speculator was thrown flat on his back. AT THE TOP OF THE LADDER. A Number of Masons Receive the 33d, or Scottish Kite, Degree. Washington.

THREE CENTS. WAITING FOR TIE JUL Pension Agent Barclay May Have to Stick Until After the Election. HASN'T BEEN REMOVED YET Secretary Roble Expects to Hare Bis Eesignation To-Day QDAY WAS ASKED TO IUTBEPEEE. Old Soldiers Wait on Mr. Quay and Posh Bengongh'3 Claims. EX-TEEASUBER BAIL! MAX GET IT Pension Agent Barclay was not removed yesterday, although the gentleman has sent his resignation to Secretary Noble, of the Department of the Interior. It is not at all likely that any action will be taken until after the election and the wise ones who know, say ex-Treasurer Bailey, of Union town will be the man. Considerable excitement was created ia the city yesterday afternoon by the an nouncement that the pension agent had been removed from office because he had not filed a new bond. This did not create a sensation in itself, as everybody knows Mr. Barclay has been waiting impatiently for his successor to be appointed, being one of the few Democrats who do not believe in. holding office nnder a Republican adminis tration. He thought he would hasten mat ters by refusing to sign a new bond, as the department would then find it necessary to appoint his successor. The politicians who see a great way ahead say it was a scheme to force the appointment before election day, and as Mr. Barclay is a candidate for Secretary of State, if a Republican wera appointed in his place it conld not do other wise than hurt the Republican ticket waiting until aptee election. From telegrams received from Washing ton it is certain that his successor will not be named until after the bonfires of Novem ber 4 have flickered and died out, and the gentlemen with the I-told-yon-so expression will be abroad in tbe land. A pleasant little conference wa3 held yesterday afternoon in City Treasurer Den niston's office. When the report that Captain Barclay had been removed reached the city, among the first persons that heard it was Mr. N. P. Reed. The latter has been backing H. H. Eengongh, an old soldier and Grand Army man, for the place, and as soon as he heard of the reported re moval he flew over to Major Denniston's office where Bengough is employed and asked the latter if he had beard anything aa to who had besn appointed. Bengough. hadn't, and a quiet consultation between, he, Mr. Reed, Major Denniiton and several prominent Grand Army men took place. Mr, Reed was implored to send ajtelezram to Senator Quay, at Beaver, asking him not to recommend any person for the place until the old soldiers had been heard, and ha agreed to do this. He sent the telegram, and urged the junior Senator to consider Mr. Bengough's application. The latter ' has been indorsed by all the old soldiers in the western part of the State, but his friends began to fear for his chances of securing tho plum. WOULD NOT SIGN OFFICIALLY. Mr. Reed then urged Major Denniston to send a telegram to Secretary Noble, asking him to withhold the appointment until Mr. Bengough's claims were heard, and asked that Major Denniston sign his name aa Department Commander of the G. A. R. of Pennsylvania. The Major, who is care ful to refrain from hringing the organiza tion into politics, was not "in it" on this scheme, and although he would send the telegram he would not sign it as requested. After considering plans to hold a personal consultation with Senator Quay, the confer ence broke up. After the consultation, Major Denniston said: "I had an interview with Senator Quay and he informed me that nothing wonld be done about the apppointment until Captain Barclay's term was up. I think he confirmation was made In May, but whether tbe pension agent will be allowed to continue in tha service without a bond is another matter. I told him the old'soldiers should be consid ered in an appointment of this kind, as tha agent will have to deal with soldiers' wid ows and orphans. He promised us that nothing would be done for some time yet, and we left him with that understanding. In view of this I do not think any appoint ment will be made until after the election at least." WANTED A STJEE-ENOUGH SOLDIER. From another source it was learned that ' soldiers' committee called on Senator Quay Tuesday and urged the appointment of Mr. Bengough. The committeemen, it is claimed, made an earnest plea for the offica to be given to a soldier, saying that tha present incumbent's title was not "earned on the field, and tbe old soldiers had a right to it It is said Senator Quay did not agree with the committee abont the old soldier forming an integral part of any office, and did not give the committee any satisfaction. The candidates for the office are Mr. Bencough, ex-Treasurer Baily, of Union town, Colonel Chill Hazzard, of Mononga hela City, another old soldier and Grand Army man, and Captain Ma gill, of West Deer township, wno represents tne North' side. Colonel Hazzard is in town, and when asked if be thought Captain Barclay had been removed, said: "No, I do not believe that story, and it is not at all likely that any appointment will be made for tome time yet Ot course, I am still in the fight and will do my best to succeed Captain Barclay. I think the place should be given to a man who has the welfare of the old soldier at heart" NO POLITICS IN IT. "Mr. Barclay has notbeen removed," said Secretary Noble, to The Dispatch cor respondent at Washington last evening, "bnt I understand unofficially that his resig nation is on the way to the Capital, aud I assume that it will be in my hands to-morrow. No, politics has nothing whatever to do with it Tbe reports to that effect are absolutely without foundation. It has never even been brought formally to my at tention that he is a candidate for office. As to the charge ho peddled out Democratic tickets to pensioners, and that was the rea son of the dissatisfaction of the department with his conduct of the office, nothing could be more absurd. I do not know that he has done any such thing, ana I do not believe he has done it "But that uide. the sole reason for tha resignation of Mr. Barclay Is his refusal to file sew bond nnder tha law fasted ia.. 4 4 M 5.
