SURPRISE AND DISAPPOINTMENT AMONG THE EXPECTANT ONES—THE MEN MOST STRENU- OUSLY URGED NOT APPOINTED. The nominations sent to the Senate to-day created more surprise and, in some quarters, more disappointment than any appointments yetmade.

The nominee for U. 8. attorney of the north- ern district of Georgia, is 8 son of the late Sen- ator B. H. Hill, of Georgia. Malcolm Hay, of Pennsylvania, 1s prom!- nently known {to the country as a leading democrat of his state. It was remarked to-day among democrats, as a fact of no little significance, that the men who have most strenuously pressed for office, have not, asa rule, been successful. Most of the xelections made have been of men who were comparatively in the back-ground. This fact: ‘operated discouragingly upon those who are devoting every day of their lives to pressing ‘their claims upon fase nistration, Capitol Topics.

Some of the members of the Senate commit- tee on public buildings and grounds met to-day, and though no quorum was present, the subject of the attack made upon Architect Clarke be- cause the stone-work on the Capitol terrace is being done by contract instead of day labor, was discussed.
