The statement in the New York World of Sunday morning that the President, Secretary of the Treasury and Postmaster General, had, after consultation, decided to ask for the resig- nation of Sixth Auditor McGrew and other officers of his bureau, is dented by Secretary Windom, who, last night, authorized the cor- respondents 0!

Icis not thought that action on the Robertson nom- ination can be delayed longer than Thursiay, and to-day a caucus fs being held by republicin Senators to reconsider the action of the pre- | vicus caucus, So long as the dec’ston of the last caucus remalps 1a force Senator Conk~- Ung has a great advantage in so far that be can delay the report in the Robertson case, and just now delay is advantageous to him. MIXED UP, The democrats are not united a3 to what course they will pursue, nor are the republ!- cans. With some democrats the question arises whether the Preaident’s move 1s to b> accepted as personal warfare on Senator Conk- lipg or whether by his act he is threatening the Senate and arrogating to bimselt the right toccerce that body or influence it through the use of patronage. Some of the Senators, aside from political affillations, hold that the question at issue ts not whether the President, or Senator Conkling shall triumph, but whether by the implied threat the President hes made he is to assume that the executive power shall dominate tne distinct legislative power of the government. The matter hence ig setuing itself down to a question of the rights of the Senate in contradistinction to the rights of the president under the con- stitution. The resident’s friends say exultingly, ‘General Garfleld has made up his Ipind to be President.” This is all right, ua- doubtedly, say these Senators; bat in asserting such clalm he-must not forget that the Senate has i fr delegated to it by the Constitution. One of these rights is that of consenting to th> President's appointments, that 13, if it sees fir, and tt clearly has the right to refuse to cou- sent, and for the President to say “You must confirm this or that man under the pata, if you do not, of Executive displeasure,” 1s a threat which tf yielded to will destroy the co-ordinate branches of the government. CONKLING AND “THS MAN AT THE OTHER END OF ; THE AVENUE,” On this subject Senator Conkling said ye3ter- day to a southwestern Senator: “I anticipate within three years there will be an uprising of the people to resist the encroactment of the executive power. I forone intend now to re- S'st all such encroachments, no matter wo Is President.” HOW SOME DEMOCRATS LOOK AT IT, Then there are democrats who reason 1a th!3 way: They say ‘the President is in a dilem He cannot get Judge Robertson confirmed unless he has democratic votes, Now it ts our duty to take advantage of the covpiex situa- tion and heip ourselves.” This they can do. “It so happens,” said a leading democrat,“‘tha® just bow the democratic mind !s considerably \orn up with Fespect to Mahone and the position the President bears toward him. The Presi- dent, it is reported, bas sem!-officially declareu, outside of the Gorham-Hiddleberger contest, he 1s with Mahone In his efforts to break down what Is called Bourbon democracy in Virginia. In short, this means he favors an alliance with Mahone if he can destroy the demecratic party in Virginia, With patronage Mahone may be able to make inroads on the democratic sUength. but without ft he would be power- less. Ow,” say some of the democratic leaders, “if the President proposes to knife us by g! Mahone federal patronage with which to disrupt our party it 1s none of our affair to aid him tn his present dilemma. Rather it is Our duty to go to him and find ous defi- nitely what he intends to do, and if he will not give us satisfaction to stand aloof from the present quarrel and let the republicans fight it out among themselves.” They say “if we tura ip and ala the President what assurance have we that after having trlumphed by our votes over Conkling he will not disiaiss us and with- out thanks.” DEMOCRATS WEO DISLIKE CONKLING. Said a prominent democrat last night, ‘i Know that Senators Hampton and Butler, aud One or two others, are actively at work to ta- Guce the democrats to vote for Robertson's coniirmation. This they do because of a per- Fonal aisiike to Conkling, and because of thelr Gisiike they are so impatient to humiliate him that they fail to see the advantages the situa- Uon presents to the democrats.” ANOTHER ISSUE. Then there is another element w: inte the complication, The dea 2 eX. ceedingly anxious to have Wm. E. Chandler rejected, If they can get atd trom the repubil- can side they can deftat him. Itso happeas that the very men who are Robertson's fricuds are the Senators whom the demozrats 190K 10 for help to defeat Chandler. If, then. the aem- ocrats turn in and confirm Robertson, the re- publicans may in a spirit of revenge put Unan- dler through. BEFORE THE BATTLE, As the batt'e draws on there is a mustering Of the clans on boti,sides. Last night Senator Frye, of Maine, who had not intended to re- turn, got back and will remain unttl the war is over. Senator Harrison, of Indiana, also ar- rived yeatersay. Such Senators as desire the existing troubles to be pasched up and an open rupture averted are still cogitating how to ar- Tat ge matters. One plan suggested is that the President withdraw Kobertson as collector and nominate him for the district attorneysbip In place of Steward L. Woodford. The latter, it 1s sald, 1s willing to assent to this, if tae Presi- dent and Robertson will agree; but it 1s not probable either will. Republican Caucus To-day. WHAT THE INDICATIONS ARE. The republican Senators assembled in caucus soon after the adjournment of the Senate. * The Indications, as gathered by a Srar re- porter at 2:30 this afternoon, were that the caucus would decide to take up and act upon, promptly, not only the Robertson case but all other Dominations now pending and that may hereafter be sent in by the President. This opinion was expressed by a party baving good reason to know what woulda be done. It was estimated that not more than ten Senators would sustain Mr. Conkling should he make another attempt to lay over the Robertson nomination until next December. Senator Conkling did not enter the caucus when it met. He went into his committee room, and in about halt an hour after the cau- cus met he was gent for, and In response to ‘this call be went in. At 3 o'clock p. m. the caucus was still In ses- mee with no ediate prospect of adjourn- ment. SOCIETY NOTES. Many of those who enjoyed the hospitality of Dr. and Mrs. Gallaudet at Kendall Green on Wednesday called upon them Saturday after- noon. that being their reception day. During the afternoon a match game of lawn tennis was Played h: the grounds in accordance with a challenge which bad passed between the club at Kendall Green and one of the Washington Clubs. Mr. de Bunsen and Mr. Montagu, of the british legation, played against Dr. Gallaudet’s nephew and another young gentleman beiong- ing to the family of one of the professors at tae college, and the latter couple were victoriou>. Many from the neighborhood, including mem: bers of Mr, Carlile Patterson’s family and some ladies and gentlemen from the city, watened the game with interest, The meeting of the Literary Soctety at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. S. H. Kauffmann, on Saturday evening, was an occasion greatly enjoyed by all present. The attendance in- cluded a number of invited to the members of the society.

HE TAKES A BROAD STATESMANIIKE VIEW OF THE SITUATION—BE WILL VOTE FOR TER CONFIRMATION OF ROBERTSON, A Srar reporter to-day inquired of Senator Voorhees what he thought of the pollticat ques- tion now uppermost in the mind of everybody— the Robertscn nomination. The Senator said he had decided views on the question, and he expressed them to the reporter in terse lan- guege, as follows : - “This is not a personal matter with me at all. Iam on good terms with Mr. Conkltog and with every member of the administration So far as personal considerations are concerned I would gladly oblige them all, for it ts always more agreeable to me to do pleasant thaa un Pleasant things, Dut I cannot place the dis- charge of my duties as a Senator on such grounds. Iam not called on to take part in quarreis betwe 2n the leaders of the republican party. The President has the rigat under the constitution to select such persons as he sees Ht for the public offices and send their pames to the Senate. If,in dotoggso, factions arisefin his own party, that 13 not my affair. I am not an arbiter of republican differences. Tney must settle among themseives. I can only iook to the person nominated to the Senate. If he fills the Jeffersonian requirements, on what grounds can I vote toreject him? If he ts cap- able anJ honest, his record 1s good with me. ‘Ti at is the old-fashioned test, und 1t 1s the true one. ‘We hear much about ‘Senatorial courtesy’ in connection with appointments and contirma- tions. That is all well enough in proper bounds. I try to be as courteous as any other Senator, and, asfaras my duty will permit, I gladly oblige my associates; but, like many other good qualities, pee & May be invoked out of place. The New York custom-house ts ag national in its proper functions as one of the departments of the government, and the col- lector of customs at New York is as much a national oficial as a member of the Cabinet. A great commercial port, collecting revenue from feven. tenths, pernaps, of all the commerce of the American people, cannot be regarded a3 a mere appendage to the local politics of a sirgle state. ‘The appointment of a collector of such a port cannot oe claimed as a local perquitite for a Senator or member of Congress like the appointment of @ postmaster. The people of Ohio, Indiana, iltnois and the other great western states are as much Interested in the administration of the legitimate business of the New York custom heuse asthe people of New York themselves. While I regret that the appointment of Judge Robertson 1s not acceptable to Senators from New York, yet believing him a capable and an honest man, and recognizing the right of the President to make the selection, I feel 1t my duty to vote for bis confirmation.” These views, from a democratic Senator ofthe rominence and influence of Mr. Voornees, ave special weight at this time, espectally as another leading Senator of the same pariy,— Mr. Bavard,—has expressed himself recently to the same effect. Federal Employese OBJECT OF SENATOR KELLOGG'S RESOLUTION— ALLEGBD DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THE SOUTH— EACH STATE SHOULD HAVE ITS PROPER QUOTA. Mr. Kellogg, in the Senate to-day, offered a resolution calling upon the executive depart- ments for complete lists of all the employe? ubereip, when appointed and by whom recom- mended. The resolution went over under ob- jection by Mr. Ferry, who subsequently stated \hat he had just come in and did not know who had submitted the resoutien; that had he kuown tbs be would not have objected. Sen- ator Brown, in a speech delivered recently, produced figures to show that the south had been discriminated against in giving out gov- ernment patronage; that appoint- ments are charged to the south witch bo- long to northern stat ored people, who are the bone and sinew of the republican party south,are given only a few piaces to do drudgery. This speech was scat- tered all through the south, and has, It 13 sald, brought hundreds of letters from republicans of that section asking if the statements it con- tained were true, Senator Kellogg, as une only republican Senator from that section, has received most of these leteers. Colored men from all sections of the south have appealed to know if he cannot correct this matter, etc. Mr, Kellogg submitted the resolution and wilt Call It Up to-morrow for adoption with the view of readjusting federal appointments so as io give each state tts proper quota. Any idea of Turning Out persons vow in office Is disclalmea, it belog declared that the true purpose 13 to have every appointee charged to the state he or she halls from. ‘The Star Ronte Frauds. POSTMASTER GENERAL JAMES APPLYING THE KNIFE, It has frequently been sald by those who de- fend the star route contractors “why if con- tacts are exhorbitant and useless the Post- Taester General does not discontinue them.” AS a matter of fact within the past few weeks he has discontinued several; notably, the routes on the Miesissippl river and the mountain Hot Springs route of Montana. Moreover, in every instance he has been advised by letters from people along the routes that his course meets Ubelr approbation. It appears, according to developments thus far made know®, that a number of routes in the far west were ho more nor less than subsidies to stage lines. The owner of the stages was the first consideration ana the wants of the ple or the prompt de- livery of the mails only a secondary one. On behalf of Gen.

These letters. with the claim, were placed In the hands of Denver attorneys, and Jast winter, when Dorsey come to Denver to look after mining interests, he was visited by one of the attorneys, and the bundle of letters alleged to have been written by him were shown tobim in support of the claim. Dorsey pro- nounced the claim fraudulent, and d pounced the Claimant as a biackmatler, Proceedings were immediately in in the district court ard Dorsey instructed his counsel to enter a demurrer on the ground that these contracts were illegal, Since then matters bave remained ir statu quo. One letter ts dated Washington, April 12, 1579, and tells the recipient that the writer wants him to go to Eugene City end precure all the petitions possible for an iucrease of mall service from Eugene city to Bridge creek for dally In- Stead of weekly service, and also to have the Ume made faster. The letter thus continues : “IT want ten or a dozen on this route; also, cet the people to write to the Postmaster Genera. end to their Senators. We want prominent democrats to write to Slater and Grover urging them to see that the increase is made.” The correspondent ts further directed to get ten or ‘twelve different petitions on each route, to have a layge number of letters written to the Post- taster General and Senators, and ve sure thai all ask for dally and fast time; to get the state officials and the chamber of commerce at Port- land also to write.

There is some excitement in the nelghbor- | hood of Mitchellville, some ® miles south of tats piace, owing tothe contention of two branches of the Methogist Chureh—the M. E. and the . E.

There were then about a dozen vehicles in the grove near the chapel, and groups of Methodists scattered about discus: sing the sitvation, while the Sanday-sc1 exercises Were in procress in the church, (only one door of which was open), and a deputy sheriff, Mr. James Mitchell, on hand to preserve creer." If appears that although the butiding was erected, and for years held, by trustees for the Methodist Eptscopal churen, yet ever since the war jt had been Tegaried 23 an ap- pointment On Marlboro circuit of the Mecnodist Episcopal Church South, and most of the at- tendagts belng members of that connection, they felt sincere 1m the belief thai the property Was theirs, under what Is known as “TBR CAPE MAY CONPERENCR.” The representatives of the two churches mu | tually agreed tn this conference that i th cases of churches on Uhe border to the central of which there were rival claimants, the ma jority Of 1ts members should decide to which | connection the church should belong. ‘Tne last Methodist Episcopal or “old side” preacher who bad a regular appointment here, was Kev. Mr Parkinson, nearly twenty years aco. As staved | above, ministers of the M. KE. church south | bave since served the church preaching on al- | ternate Sundays—Rev. David Thomas being the present minister, who 118 officiated there for a year or more. Some few months ago the congregation canvassed the subject of a new | location for the church, and pat out | subscription papers to ascertain how much j Money they could ratse, and the papers soon footed up $500, It was proposed to eract the new building ator near Muilltken's station, | about one and a half miles northwest of the present church, and it is sald that thts loc Uon Was the real cause of the extsting difti- culty. At any rate, about the tme of the March conferences one family of Uhree or four members withdrew thelr certificates trom the church south because, it 1s thought, the re- mainder of the mem! hip—some forty-five in nbumber—were against them as to the location of the new church. It is said that this tamtly opened & conference with Kev. B. Peyton Brown, the presiding elder of Washington Dis- trict M. E. Church, which resulted in this church being added to South River alt Rev. Mr. Haskell in change. The fact that Rev. Mr. Haskell Intended to take change on April lth baving become known fo a majority of the members the church was found locked that morning when the “old side” preacher arrived with some of bis friends.

This caused a considerable number of Mr. ‘';omas’ friends to asrembie af the courch, some of whom ated that Kev. Mr. Brown would ace ir. Haskell. A RESOLUTE LADY MEMBER, The Sunday school to-day was in change ot Mr. W. J. Gortper, and there were about 25 puplls present. Aboul the organ were seated five young ladies anda young man. Besides those conpected with the school, some ten or ‘twelve other persons were in the church. One door of the Church was kept closed, and several gentlemen were seated On the steps, A lady, sald to be one of the withdrawing members, passed In at the open door, and directly after- Wards her volce was heard demanding, why that door (pointing to the other one) was closed? Going up to the door she vigorously attacked it and got It PSrtly open. One of the gentlemen sitting in the door Way, looking up, exciatmed, “MY gracious, madam, I am acripple. Dont jet that door fallon me.” The irat claimed, “I don’t care. My family have to come in this church and shall come at the same time veckoning to her family, who Were seated in a light wazon outside, Mr. Mitchel, the deputy sheriff, iramedtately ran into tbe cburch, as did others, and by alter- bate threats of arrest and entreaties succeeded | 9 getting the angry lady tosit down. She, however, kept talking fn an excited manne abd the choir above, with organ accompani- ment, sang. “HOLD THE FORT.” This was supg with much spirit and hada pecullar significance. The singers, it was ob- served, Words “reinforcements now ap- PLaribg” cast thelr eyes towards the door, Oa a The words “Hold the Fort” a pecultarly strange eiphasis was pul, and when “see tbe migaty host advancing” was sung some turned to the window nearest the road seemtagly looking for the coming preacver, At the refereace to ‘trlumphing o'er the foe” eyes flashed towards the belligerent lady. The fourth stauza “Pierce and long the battle rages” was sung so vigor- | ously Ubat it seemed that the choir was ready | to do its part, help or no helo, and as the woras | “cheer, ty corarades, cheer” rolled out they seemed to rejoice in holding the fort. During the singing the lady referred to above was en- peace iD. Conversation with the deputy @herif id = side, but her voice was drowned by the singing. The superintencent then proceeded to read a chapter in the 24 Book of Samuel, but the lady again commenced to give her views of the action cf the others, and asserted that if Mr. Haskell came be should come in. The superintcndent, looking up, said: “Madam will you plzase keep uiet. “Mr. Mitchell, order must be kept here. hhis 1g a religious meeting.” “I deny It,” sald the Jady. *“Tbere’s no religion about it.” Mr. Mitchell, placing his hand on the lady's shoulder, said: “In the name of the state of Maryland, I command the peace. Madam, you must be quiet.” Another gentleman here turned to the lady, and she lowered her tone of Voice, and the superintendent fluished the chap- ter and bis comments thereon. BBY, MK, HASKELL REFUSED ADMITTANCE TO THE CHURCE. A neat family carriage driven up toa tree in the grove attracted attention, and some one re- marking, “There he ts,” (meaning Rev. Mr, Haskell.) a rush to get seats jn the church was made by some, whlie others yent cut to gee what would be done. The family of Mr. Has- keli's Iriends walked in tae church, and some one raised & bymn in which a few voices jolned.
