The Resignation of Postmaster James Regarded as Very Probable.. ile Is with the Three New York Senators for the Coning Struggle, Strong Pressure on the New York Legislature to Rescind Its Resolution. The President Regrcts that He Nominatod Robertson “So Hastily," But Is Understood as Far from Re- grotting that Ho Nominated Robertson, MAC VEAGIL WILL HE Go? Special Dispateh to e Chicavo Tribune, Wasisaros, D. C., March 20.—There have been rusnors to-day that - Attorney-Gen- eral MacVeagh has tendered his resiznation, on aecount of the nomination of Willtam E. Chandler as Solicitor-General, 'I'he reports have excited o great deal of comment among Senators, aml the Stalwart faction which was very much opposed to MacVeagh's nppolnt- ment openly say that they hope that the re- port Is true, and that the President will ap- point Mr. Chandler himself as Attorney- General, Mr. MacVeagh declines to talk rbout the matter, as does the President. In the absence of any definlt statement from the two persons who kuow best about it, the . followlng is generally accepted s an approxhnately authentic version of tho situation: * When the President intlmated to the Attorney-Gen- ernit-that he contemplated appointiye Will- famn E. Chaudler as Solicitor-General, Mr. MacVeagh sald: *Mr President, the nom- Inutlon will be exceedingly distastetul to me. 1 hope you will reconslder your intentlon to make the nomlnation, for, If it Is mnde, 1 SHALL CERTAISLY HESIGN. A few days thereafter the nominatlon was sent to the Senate, ‘Thereuponthe Attorney- Genernl ealled upon the President and sald: *‘Tho nomination of Mr. Chmudler having been sent to tho Senate, ju view of the fact that I intimated, In the eventof its golng in that L should resign, Lean only suppose thatmy reslznation will be neceptable.’ ‘Iho Presi- dent salt the Attorney-General misunder- stood the situation, and further, declared that he did not understand that Mr, MacVeagh had declared to him that ho would resign If the Chandler nomination went in. The At- torney-General said that such was his posi- tion, and he was sorry if the President mls- understood it. The President sald he did, certatuly, If the nomination of Mr. Chan- dler 18 confirmed, Attorney-General Mac- Veagh will resign. 1f not, ke will act,"” TIE OPPONENTS OF Mit, CHANDLER sny that the Democrats will be urged to unite to defeat hiscontirmation, either as Solicitor- General or Attorney-General, ‘They dislike uls aggressive political attitudo in the past. The friends of the Attorn neral look upon the situntlon ng n grave ong, and some of thom would not bo surprised at a reslgne- ton Inense the Senate should contirm Mr, Chandler, 1t is pussible, of course, that Mr, Chandler may not be confirmed, und Mr, Phillips, who has been Solleltor-tieneral for n number of years, and who hns de- elined the Judgeship on the Court of Clulms offered him the ether day by the President would, In that ense, retaln the Solieltor-Gen- eralship, uniess the Prestdent shouli, after the adjournment of the Sennte, remove hlm and put Mr. Chisndler In his place.

It Is understood to be the claim of Senators Conkling and Platt that Mr., James will make common cause with themn, and that, If their difference with tho President results In open war, Mr.James wiil eventually leave the Cabinet. It has been the hope of Conkling for two or three days that the President would recnll the nomina~ tion of Robertson, but it was known on Sat- urday evening that he had positively said ho would not do this, and further efforts made to Induce him to do 80 have only shown !Iuisc opposed to It that ha means to ndhere toit AT ALL 1AZARDS, und against whatever opgosition may be made to it. Persons near the Presldent say to-night that he 15 not dis posedld to mnake any change in cither of the nominations, Mr. Chandler’s or Mr, Robertson's, and that while he will re- wret o break in his Cabinet, ho prefers to run the hnzard of that rather than change pur- poses dellberately formed by him, and which he sees no suflicient reason to revise, Sen- ator’s Platt’s visit to the Whito Tlouse is not reported (o be tavorahle to harmony in the the party. 'The ludieations nro that Mr. Conkling, and Mr. Platt, and Viee-President Arthur whi unite to make a fight against Robertson. Mr. Conkling Is reported in the Senate cloal-rooms to-day to have sald thnt he bl been DECEIVED In this watter, and that the President had made o him n statement on the Sunday night preceding the nomination, substan- tinlly in these words: “There shall be no change in the New York Custom-Tlouse until you and your colleague have been noti- fied.” Mr. Conkling cinims that falth was broken with him, and thut Itis on this ac- count, as mch as on account of the ap- pointment of Robertson, that he makes com- plaint. Conkling’s friends say that he hos seeured seven members of TIE COMMERCE COMMITTER toact with himto prevent the present re- porting of Robertson, or to report it ad- . ‘There are rumors, this evening, not ver tracenble to any good authority, that matters have gone so far that successors to tho Postmaster-General and Attorney- General have alrendy been thought of in caso the Incumbents should offer thelr resigua- tlons, and it can be reported, on what seems podd nuthority, that the President hns enlng brought his mind to the conetu~ slon that he will_not refuse to accept tho reslgnations of Messts, James und Mac- Veagh, i’ they should come to the conclu- slon that they are uncomfortable In the Cabinet, CONKLING. THE POSITION OF 11 DRIGADE. pectat Dirpateh to The Chicugo Tribune. Wasusotos, D. C, March 20.—The fact that the New York Legislature is conslder- ing the propriety of rescinding its resolution indorsing the nominationof Judge Robertson to b Collector of the Port of New York hus aain ealied attention to the probable position of the New York Scenators, be littto doubt that they intend to attempt to defeat the nomlnation by every means in their power, if it shall nol be withdrawn, Mr. Platt, althongh placed fnan embuarrassing position, In view of the support glven to him "t the Legislatura by the Hobertson people, will doubtless feel compelled to muke comuion enuse with Mr. Conkling. No attempt, as yet, has heen mudo by the Conkling men to ascortain thoattitude which would be assumed by other Republie- an Senators fn the ovent of n oontest. The nomination of Robertson still LIES UPON THE SENATE TABLE, and has not been referred to o commlttee, as there hns been no executive sesslon since tho name was sent in, Possibly the contest will avlse nv the vutset over the proposition to re- fer, A gentleman in position to know makes the followlng statement with respeet to the manner fn which the nominations wero unwle, 11 savs that the first bateh, or tho Conkling nominations, were made without the knowledge of Secretary Blaine, and were, unwlisely, all sent In in onedoy together, THE RESULT walthatthe Inrge army of Now-Yorkers then here made a jubilant demonstration, called that evening upon Senator Conkling, and MADE NOISY PROCLAMATION that Gartiedd intended to recognizo Conkling to the exelusion of the anti-Conkllng factlon. ‘Theso demonstrations, combs to the knowl- edge of the Dresident and Mr. Blaine, this gentleman says, ind an unpleasant effect, and tho nest day Mr. Blaine urged the Prest- dent to immedintely send the name of Rob- ertson to the Senate as Collector to counter- act the effect of the nominations of the pre- vious day, ‘This the President did without consultation with the two Now York Sen- atars, with tho Viee-Presldent, or with the Cubinet ofticer from Now York, & step which, this gentleman ays, 3 PRESIDENT I8 NOW KNOWN TO REGRET. e New York Scnators,” thils gentlemnn sald, * were prepared to nequicsce fnnrecog- nition of this other clement, and would have supported, even for the position of Collector of the Port, some other mun less personally aggressive and otfenslve to thom thun Judge Robertson. "Lhe matter, thoy sny, conld have been harmoniously settled In nfow moments’ consultation with them had It been Invited ornllowed. Now [t Is difcult to see what the reswlt will bo” Moeanwhile, It Is true that the proportion of Conkling nominu- tions In New York to anti-Conkling 1s more than four to one In faver of Conkling. Tho Now York sppointments, upon thele own merits, ulm;le- und collectively, will stand the test of exumination as wf honorable etfort to harmonize the Itepublican party in that State by recognizugeall lts elements, Botoro the Presldent uppu{l’xwd Judge Robertson, o nominated THE FOLLOWING PIOMINENT ADIERENTS to the Grant-Conkilng factlon: Col, Jnmed, Postmustur-Gouoral Mr. Morton, Minister to Fronce.
