Representative Morrison Favers a Dis- The assumption by some of Mr. Randall's friends that Mr. Morrison will oppose the propo sition to distribute some of the appropriation bills among other committees of the House is not well grounded. Two years ago, itis true, Mr. Morrison opposed such a plan, but he was guided then by a desire to act magnanimously towards Mr. Randall, who had just been de- feated by Mr. Carlisle for Speaker Of the House, In an interview with a Star reporter last even- ing Mr. Morrison said he considered, trom the experience of past years, that it is a matter of impossibility for any one committee to prop- erly do all the work now assigned to the com- mittee on appropriations, no matter whether it bad Mr. Randall or some one else at its head. When the present rules were adopted, at the beginning of the Forty-sixth Congress, he voted fora pro osition, io distribute some of the ap- propriation bills because he considered It, tie proper thing to do, But when Mr, Randall hat been deteated for Speaker of the House in the Forty-eighth Congress and_ the proposition was again agitated he advised against it and tafored giving the appropriations committee all the | powers and importance it had ever held as a matter of courtesy to Mr. Randall, Since then, he says, he has learned not to allow a desire to act courteously to an opponent to prevent his doing what he believes to be right. He thinks the appropriation bills are more than any one committee can manage, and he will favor the distribution of part of them, among the com- mittees to which they properly belong. in connection with the tariff question Mr. | Morrison said he thought everybody in the party was pledged to a reduction of the tariff, and he did not see how the eoming Con; could avoid it. The party was pect ad by its platiorm, and even the eke ion democrats (those who voted against his bill) gave as their Feason that the party was not in power, and said wait until they got in power, then they would doit. He is not wedded to any particu Jar plan. What he wants is to have the tariff reduced as low as it can be and leave enough revenue for the government, He does not care whose plan is fdopted, $0 long as the desired. end is reached. ie has, himself, introduced several bills, both general and special, since he has been in Congress, having that object. in view, the last of which was the so-called “horl- zontal bill,” which had “a pretty considetable free list,” —O— Favors a Change of the House Rules. VIEWS OF REPRESENTATIVE SINGLETON. Representative Singleton, of Mississippi, sare he thinks the rules of the House ought to be changed, and believes they will be. He will yote for a proposition to take some of the work from the appropriations committee. At present, the members of that committee have more than they can do, and have every session to get per. mission of the House to sit during the session of the House, while there are many other meme ‘bers who Haye nothlag to-do and-eowld jusy.as. well be occupied with, that work. ‘Phe fifteen members of the committee aro taken from the floor of the House more than, half the time by thelr press of committee work, and their con- Stiuents are practically deprived of thelr ser- vices to look after matters interesting to them not connected with appropriations, Steel Guus for Defensive Worku. WORK OF THE HOUSE SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON ORDNANCE. The House special comniittee on ordnance will hold a meeting in the appropriations com- mittee room on Wednesday. The committee has visited all the iron and steel manutactories in the country during the recess of Congress to ascertain what facilities there are in this coun- try that may be manipulated forthe construc- tion of steel ordnance, and they have collected much valuable information. There are at pre- sent no works in this country where the latest improved heavy rifle gunsare made, and the country is praciically defenseless for want of proper ordnance. It was with tbe view of cor recting this that the mittee was a, “2 dee and they think they have collected in mation that will lead Congress to mako the necessary appropriations, and provide for the maintain- ance of a plant where such guns may be made, either under private auspices, or at thd@pvern- ment works. See ‘The Pacific Coast Signal Service. REASON FOR ITS TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF THE WEATHER INDICATIONS, ASrAx reporter called at the signal office to- day to learn the reason for the sudden suspen- sion of weather indications on the Pacific coast, and was informed that the suspension is | only a temporary one. Lieut. Glassford, of the signal corps, who has been on duty here for some time, will be ordered to Sati Franclico take charge of the Pacific coast division, an until he reaches his new post indfcations there have been suspended, but will be supplied from here. Some time ago it was decided to make the Pacific coast a division by ttself for weather indications, and Lieut, Craig, who was sta- tioned here, was placed in change of the divi- sion, with headquarters at San Francisco. Not a great while ago he was relleved from duty on the signal service at his own request, with a view of Joining hig regiment. His relict left the office'at San Francisco in chaige of a signal service sergeant, wlio continued the work. “It was found, however, that he was hardly np to the requirements of such important duty, and it was decided to suspend the Pacttie coast ind\- cations until a more competent officer could take charge of the work. ‘The Murderous Chiriecahuas.

At rly underst eo tyored ae | President was | ditional as THE PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION. Importance of Legislation on the Sub- Jeet. THE SAME CONDITION OF AFFAIRS AFTER GARFIELD'S DRATH AS AT PRESENT—PARTI- SAN ELEMENTS OF THE SUBJECT, RTC. ‘One effect of the death of Vice President Hendricks has been to awaken in the minds of members of Congress a realization of the im- portance of some Jaw definitely providing for the presidential succession. Since the memorable contest of 1876 this subject has re- ceived attention in Congress, and though the importanes @f such an enactment has been conceded, nothing has beendone, Even when the democrats had control of both houses of Congress they neglected to enact alaw of this Kind. Committees have been created in both jouses and given jurisdiction of this subject, Dut nothing tras cone of it; Paruana conslaer. ations have largely interfered to prevent the needed legislation. For mostof the time dur- ing the last few years the two houses of Con- gress have been’ on opposite sides polltical damaiiet® AS operated to prevent legislation definitely providing tor the succession to office in the event of the death or disability of both and Vice President, AFTER THE DEATH OF PRESIDENT GARFIELD, and when Mr. Arthur assumed the presidential office, the country was left in the same: condi- tion as at present. Then there was neither President pro tempore of the Senate nor Speaker of the House, and the possibility of Mr. Arthur's death was discussed with grave fears. But not- withstanding the apprehension that existed nothing was done to provide for a regular con- tinuance of governmental machinery in the event that death should remove the chosen rulers, Now the question again forces itself upon the attention of Senators and Representa- Lves, and it will most probably be presented in Congress early during the coming session. THE PARTISAN ELEMENT OF THE SUBJECT will, perhaps, again come to the front. The democrats will insist upon a law that will en- tail the succession upon the party in power. They will probably seek to repeal the present statute which vests the presidential office upon the president, pro tempore of the Senate iu the event of the death of both President and Vice President, on the ground that such succession might reverse the will of the people as last ex- pressed at the ballot box, NOT PLEASING TO THE DEMOCRATS. In connection with this sutject there isa good d@! of feeling among democrats with re- gard to the election of a president pro tempore of the Senate, As the law now stands, that official, when chosen, would succced to the presidency should anything happeh to Mr. Cleveland. Some of the democratic Cor men in Washington think that the republican majority of the Senate ought, at least, choose a conservative memberof thelr body as presiding Officer. The suggestion that either Senator Logan or Senator Sherman should be elected is not pleasing to the democrats. They do not like to contemplate the posslbility of elther of these Senators cowping to the prosidentlal chalr. “They are,” sal speaking of Sherman and Logi porter, “the representatives of the bloody shirt wing of their party. ‘They are bitter sectional- ists and proscripiive partisans. The republi- cans, in view of the fact that the political senti- menis ofboth Logan and Sherman have been condemned at the polls, should not force either one of them upon us as presiding officer of the Senate.” POSITION OF SENATOR-ELECT MITCHELI. There is some talk, too, of the possibility of the election of a democrat, but such an idea does not seem to be entertained with any great feeling of hope among democrats. It is said that Senator-elect Mitchell, of Oregon, who was elected by the aid of democratic votes, will probably be willing to co-operate with the dem- ocrats in the matter of the selection of a siding officer.

Mr. Morrow and His Bookkeepe: A STORY OF AN APPOINTMENT IN THE AGRI- CULTURAL BUREAU—MR. MORROW'S EXPLA- NATION. Astory was published in the New York Sun to-day on the anthority of Frank Thoma, who was formerly employed as bookkeeper in the Sunday Gazette office, that he had received an appointment as aclerk in the Department of Agriculture through Mr. T. G. Morrow, editor of the Gazette, byt had no duties to perform ex- cept to draw IMs pay of $100 a month and give it to Mr. Morrow. He received the appoint- ment, he states Carmen, then chief clerk, and continued to draw his pay until April 7th last, just. before ihe new commissioner arrived, when he was furloughed by Gen. Carmen. Subsequently, he says, he was discharged from the employ of the Gazette for some betty reason. Mr. Morrow wanted to get hold of the papers relating to the appointment in the Agricultural department, and taey bad an interview in the presence of jeutenant Arnold. Lieutenant Arnold told Thoma, so the latter says, that the letters Were his and he had a right to keep them. The papers referred to by Thoma are his appoint- Ment as a $1,200 clerk in the statistical divi- sion, a letter from Chief Clerk Carmen to Mr, Morrow enclosing the letter of appointment and requesting him to have Thoma report to the department, and another letter from the ghicf clerk, dated April Jt last, furloughing ‘Thoma. Mr. Morrow stated toa Sar reporter that it was true that he had secured the appointment in the Department of Agriculture for Thoma, but knew nothing of Tiomn’s duties there or how well he had attended to them. Thoma continued to take charge of the books of the Gazette office and had control of the cash, ‘It Nas true that Thoma tnrned over his pay to him every month, but in the meantime Thoma, had drawn upon the cash of the office—five or ten dollars at a time—to the same amount. In other words, Thoma merely reimbursed “him for advancing his salary. When Thoma left the Gazette office he took with him, Mr. Morrow Says, some papers relating toan entirely differ- ent matter trom those referred to by Thoma, and it was those papers that he was anzlous to get through Lieut. Arnold. "s The District Debt.

The President Will Net Attend—His Statement of the Reasons—Departure of Members of the Cabinet, of the Con- gressional Committees and Others For Indianapolis, The President yesterday afternoon deter mined not to make the trip to Indianapolis, and made the following statement regarding his change of plan: “In the fifst moment of the shock of Mr. Hen- dricks' death I yielded to my inclination ard declared my intentions to be present at the funeral. Of course, in reaching that conclu- sion,I did not zut out ot viewa peremptory press ot public business, or what I deemed a sufficient consideration of my duty to the people, The public business T thought I could dispose of by gdditionnl application and more hours of work, and I consider it to be my duty. to tho people to answer 1 terider sentiment of respect aud affection tothe dead Vice Presi- dent, which does them great honor. “I ain satistied now that I was at fault in con- sidering the question, in that I did not take as comprehensive a view ol the duty t owe the pubift as I should; that 48,1 did not look at every phase of it,and I am afraid that my Strong personal desire somewhat clouded my judgment, “I'am now feminded by some of the best and most patriotic and thoughtful of our citizens that the real and solemn duties of my office are at the national eapital, and that in the present peculiar and delicate’ situation 1 ought not to lake even the remotest chance of accident inci- dent to travel to gratify @ sentiment so general and so characteristi¢ as that involved in this Subject. I have been profoundly impressed by these considerations, but most of all influenced by their strong and unanimous presentation by the devoted friends of the Jate Vice President living in his state and city, and their indorse- ment by the noble and pattiotic woman, who, in the infinite sorrow of her widowhood, re- flects the spirit and character of her honored husband in her solfeitude for the public good. “Lam now certain that neither my desire nor the sentiment referred to nor the difficulty that attends in this case a change of design, nor any stubborn idea of heroism will justify me in subjecting the country to any greater chance of disaster that attends my performance of strict duty here, and that I ought not i:flict upon my countrymen even the unrest. and anxiety ai- tending my departure, absence and return in attendance upon the funeral ceremonies.” ‘On Saturday the President received the tol- lowing telegrams in response to an inquiry if Mrs, Hendricks regarded the President's pres- “INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Nov. 28, 1885.
