tre oe, LEFT FOR CLEVELANE TO FILL. Thirty-six Nominations Made by Har- rison Failed of Confirmation. Washington, March 6.—There were thirty-six nominations sent to the senate by President Harrison during the last session of congress that failed of confirmation. Of this number one was rejected, | that of Jobn V. L. Findlay, of Mary- land, to be arbitrator for the Uuited States on the Chillian Claims Com mission. His failure of coufirmation was due to the opposition of Mary land senators. The name of G. M. Lambertson was substituted by the president, but no action was taken on it by the senate The most important nomination not sanctioned by the senate was that of Benton Hanchett, of Michi gan, to be United States circuit judge for the sixth judicial distzict, to succeed Judge Jackson, who was confirmed as associate justice of the United States supreme court. For purely political reasons the demo- cratic senators used their influence to prevent Mr. Hanchett’s confirma- tion, and succeeded. Three army nominations, all d-s- sirable positions, failed for lack of action. One that provoked much discussion was that of Lieutenant Join A. Dapray, to be paymuster, with the rank of major. Lieut Da pray acted as military aide to the secretary of war, and when his pro- motion from that grade to major was announced it aroused an antag- onistic feeling among the senior of- ficers in the army, who objected to the promotion of so young an officer. The promotion of Col. Elwell S. Otis to be brigadier general, in place of Gen. Carr, who was forced to re tire, also felkthrough owing to the antagonism of Gen. Carr's friends, who objected to his retirement. The reappointment of D. T. Kir- by to be captain in the regular army was opposed on account of his hav ing been dismissed from the service by the sentence of a court-martial, which sentence, however, was subse quently pronounced excessive by congress. During president Arthur's administration a law was passed an- thorizing the president to reiustate him, but President Arthur declined to do so, as did his successor, Pres ident Cleveland. President Harri- son presented his name for re- appointment, but the senate refused to concur. During the recent promotions in the pay corps of the navy a vacancy occurred and John M. Evans, o Minnesota, was appointed an assist ant paymaster. But official objec tion was made to the promotion of Pay-inspector John H. Stevenson, and pending cross examination of his case, Mr. Evans’ appointment was held up. Mr. Stevenson's case was not finally decided, aud a much sought for appoi-tment will, there- fore, be at the disposal of Presideut Cleveland. Other naval nominations that fail- ed of contirmation were W. A. Dodd and HO. Dunn, to be lieutenants, and E. F. Seiper and Joseph Beale, lieutenants, junior grade, and E. M. Phipp aud A B. Pusey to be assist- ant surgeons The nomination of W. H. Ray- mond, private secretary of Secretary Tracy, to be solicitor for the state departmeat failed of contirmation. Also that of Lycurgus R. Woodward to be commissioner for the district of Alaska, and those of eighteen postmasters and some minor offices. Deserving Praise.

Jefferson City, Mo, March 8.— Governor Stone’s latest communica- | tion regarding the federal ju-:iciary (pact and the univeraal senti-| ment of the people here, regardless of party affiliation, seems to be in |Support of the position which the} | govervor has taken. The reai desire of Governor Stone in the matter is} timent that congress will be com pelled to adopt a provision which will prohibit the federal courts from overriding the decision of the stute courts so far as they affect the inter pretation of state laws. A judge .f the state prominent on the bench, suggests that if the judges of the federal circuit and district courts were elected, the same as are the judges of the state corrts, their autocratic and domineering spirit, which arises from the realization that they are appointed for life and are not responsible to the state whose laws they interpret. would be curtailed to a considerable extent and being near and of the people they would regard the rights of the people to a greater degree. In reply to the suggestion that ifthe federal judges were elected they might be subject to partisan obligations, the same judge express ed the opinion that there was little difference in being tbe creature of any political party or of a partisan president. What future action Gov- ernor Stone may take in the matter will deperd upon the movements of the federal authorities when he ap- points a special judge to the county court of St. Clair county so soon as the legislature gives him the neces- sary authority. $100 Reward $100.
