Garrard, of Nevad: To-Day’s Nominations, TENNESSEE DEMOCRATS NOT PLEASED AT EX- GOV. PORTER'S NOMINATION, BUT DELIGHTED AT MR. ATKINS’ SELECTION. ‘The report that Senator Harris, of Tennessee, ‘would, in obedience to the wishes of democrats of that state, oppose the confirmation »f ex-Gor Porter as Assistant Secretary of State is with- out foundation. Gov. Porter has been identified with a faction of the Tennessee democracy whieh is not popular with the party there at large. In the last campaign for state officers in ‘Tennessee Gov. Porter and some others anta- conized the regular state ticket. Senator Harris took the field for the regu- lar nominees and carried the state, get- ting @ vote of about 110,000, while the other faction polled only 4,000 or 5,000. Some of the representatives of the regular wing of the democracy who are here say that the selection of Gov. Porter will be distasteful to the mass of the party, but there is no Idea of oppos- ing him. Senator Harris says Gov. Porter is an inlelligent, high-toned and chivairous gentle- man: that'he is honest and entirely capable, and that no man, no matter whether he wented the nomination ‘or not, could say otherwise, All there {s of the reported opposition grows out of the fact that on the adjustment of the Tonnes see debt Gov. Porter differed with a por'ion of his party, but all concede his fitness ead h eminent qualifications, The nominatiou of ex- Soy poses Atkins is most acceptat.le to all the democracy of that state. He has ior years t been one of the most popular leaders of the lemocracy of his state, and during Fis service in Congress he attained national distinction. ‘On every hand his selection is pronounced most, fitting and satisfactory. pest A District Delegation at the White House. sf Dittrlet, delegation called at the White fouse this afternoon in behalf of Mr. John E.

HIGGINS’ APPOINTMENT. A Possibility that it May be Reconsid- ered as a Violation of the Civil Service Rules—An Involved Question. ‘The selection of Mr. Eugene Higgins for the office of chief of the appointment division of the Treasury department has caused a good deal of Unfavorable comment, No official attention was, however, paid to the matter, but a ques- tion has arisen in connection with this office which is receiving careful attention, and which in its settlement is liable to disarrange or per haps rearrai service rales in rela- Hon to cificer nder Se garerameut and which ay prev ir. rece!

Chiefs of bureaus are nominated by the President, but chiefs of fivisions are not, and right here Is the hitch. The apparent inconsistency is said to have been the result of the opposition of certain promi- nent officials under the late administration to @thorough application of the civil service law. Chiefs of bureaus in the State department are ofequal rank with ehlets of divisions in othe n e first were exempted It was the others should be. Before the close of the last Administration an effort was made to secure & uniform classification pippherpacpded accordance with the intent of the act ascon- ued by the civil service commission, in Which chiefs of divisions should be included. If Mr. Higgins is permanently appointed with- ‘out examination to the office for which he bas been selected, it is claimed that it will be in violation of the civil service law, but yet in per- fect accord with the rules as published by the ¢lvil service commission. It is understood that the matter has been brought tothe attention of President Cleveland, and that he has expressed himeelf as desirous of carrying out to the letter the civil service act, without regard to special rules. If this is ‘done, Mr. Trevitt’s place as chief of the {appointment division cannot be alled by sn rbitrary appointment.

MB, STOLL THE CHOICE OF INDIANA DEMO- CRATS FOR THE PLACE, There was a report in circulation today that some of the Indiana democrats had gone to the President and urged him not to appoint Mr. Stoll, of that state, public printer on the ground that he was not acceptable. Representative Lowry, of Indiana, in reply to the question of a STAR reporter, said to-day that there was no {roti in the report that there was any oppost tion from the democratic Congressmen of In- diana to Stoll. He said that Stoll was the choice ofthe democracy of his state, and that if any Jndianian Is appointed public printer, tt will be Stoll. Some of the Indiana democrateexpected the nomination for public printer to reach the Senate to-day, and were really disappointed that it did not, It was stated to-day again that no change will be made in public printer for the resent. The Indiana democrats, so one of heir number says, have not urged thelr man for immediate appointment, but recommend that he be chosen whenever the President shall see fit to make a change. jt 1s reported that during bis visit to the White House yesterday afternoon Public Printer Rounds’ was assured by President Cleveland that he did not contemplate any immediate change in his office, A Point Against Postmaster Pearson. A LETTER HE WROTE TO THOS. J. BRADY NOW BROUGHT UP AGAINST HIM. A letter, which Is alleged was written to Gen. T. J. Brady, in 1880, by Postmaster Pearson, of New York city, It 1s said, has been used fn the fight to turn Pearson out. Pearson was known asareformer, His strong point was that he be- Meved ina pure civil service, and opposed all partisan uses of public offices. In 1880, though Mr. James, afterwards Postmaster General, was postmaster, Pearson really managed and di- rected the Office. Acrording to the story,money Was needed for the republican cam; ‘in New York, and the party leaders thought the post office employes ought to contribute, Pearson could not assent to this without violating his civil service pretensions, but, under pressure, he arranged to take the “I, 0.'U.'s" of the post office clerks. Each clerk gave his note for the amount of his contribution, and Gen. Brady cashed these notes, ‘The sum realized amount- ed to several thousand dollars, and It was badly needed. After the election Mr. required each clerk to take up his note, and in remit- ting the money he wrote a letter to Gen. Brady thanking him for the Spporenne. aid he had ren- dered.

JUDGE MACARTHUR DEFINES THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PRIVATE AND A PUBLIC GAME. In the CriminalCourt this morning, the case of Thomas Patton, appealed from the Police Court, on the charge of keeping a gaming table, was tried. Mr. A. B. Williams appeared for de- fendant, The evidence showed that there was but one occasion when poker was played, al- though “five up” had been played. Witnesses testified that Patton put out the chips, and each player bought a dollar's worth and paid an ‘assessment of ten cents for the use of the rooms; ‘that two parties having less than a dollar were shut out of the game, and they engazed in “five up," for which they paid Pation five cents per hour. Other witnesses testified that they paid No assessment. ‘Mr. Williams contended that this was no vio- lation of the statute. Judge MacArthur charged the jury that aman had the right to invite a iriend to his house and indulge in a social game of cards, and the law {id not contemplate interference ‘in such case, Men also had @ right to club together in a friendly way and enjoy these games, but as soon 88 a place was opened for the public to come in and play, then the proprietor “set up and Maintained @ gaming table,” and the statute ae Two Democrats of the Olden Time.
