TALK AS TO HIS PROBABLE SUCCESSOR. It seems to be generally accepted as a fact that Collector Hedden has resigned the New York collectorship, but nothing official can be had on the subject. Secretary Fairchild said to-day that the resignation was not on file at the Treasury department, but had nothing fur- ther to say on the subject. A government official of high position who has Deen over to New York during the last few duys said to @ STAR reporter to-day tnat in his opinion Mr. Bissell, of Buffalo, or some demo- erat not ot New York will be appointed to suc- cved Collector Hedden. ‘This official says the collector's office in New York has been handi- capped with local politics for years and has been kept in more or less of a muddle through’ the influcene of local politicians and that the principal object of @ change will be to relieve the office of all such embarrassments and put it upon @ business basis; that any citizen of New York city who might be appointed col- leetor, would be entangled to a greater or less degree with local polities, and to free the com- colieetor irom such influence a non-resident ing will be chosen. — $§.¢¢—___ ‘The Country’s Gold and Silv.

HE SAYS HE IS NoW DOING INTHE CASE WHAT IME TREATY REQUIRES TO BE DONE. A STAR reporter called on Secretary Bayard ‘at the State department to-day with relation to ‘the Cutting case. There are no new develop- ments in the case Just at this moment, but ne- Gotiations are still going on, and a satisfactory settlement of the matter is evidently expected at the department. Our treaty with Mexico Provides that every effort be made to effect the Peaceful settlement of any difficulties that may arise between the two countries before resort ing to hostilities. These efforts are being made by Secretary Bayard. The Secretary expresses nself with indignation at the efforts being made to make party capital out of the matter, and at the many misstatements afloat. He re- ferred to the oficial correspondence to show that the implication credited to Representative Hitt that his (Bayard’s) fletyr misstated the ease was unwarranted. “Here you will see for yourself,” he said, going over the printed correspondence with the Teporter. “My letter is based upon the infor- mation of the department, Mr. Bingham, the consai at Paso del Norte, was a judge, served on the bench ably, and is a man oi experience aud ability, as represented to the department by his endorsers «ut the time of bis appointment, in his letter to the department: ‘Betore . Cutting was rerused counsel and nterpreter, both of which he requested.’ in he [proceeded to the office of the jelal Interpreter of the court to ascertain the exaet charges against Mr. Cutting, and was in- formed that he was arrested for the publication in El Paso (Texas) Herald: that he wasexamined upon tls charge alone and committed to jail on the same.’ He states further that the judge never deigned a reply to his the “ cousul’s) communication, and that ail was refused Cutting, ' though _ he. was prepared to wive it in any reasonable amount, The consul general indorses what Consul Bingham suys. Cutting makes afdavit that the judge notitied him that he would be held to answer the charge of having published the card in the Texas paper. There is the affi- davitof A.A. Daguerre. He suys: ‘I know that he was arrested tor publishing @ card in E] Paso (Texas) Heraid June 18, 1886. 1 was Present In the court room and heard the judge announce these facts. * * * ‘Tho judgestated emphatically that Mr. Cutting was notin jail for contempt of court, but ior the publication of the card in the El Paso Herald.’ The affidavit of H.G. Turner states that he (Turner) was present in the court when the judge announced Uhat Mr. A. K. Cutting bad been arrested 101 publishing an article in the El Paso Herald. " In his letter to Minister Jackson, Secretary Bayard says: “Mr. Romero produced to me the Mexican laws, article 186, whereby jurisdic- Uon Is assumed by Mexico over crimes commit ted azainst Mexicans within the United States or uny other foreign country; and under tnis he maintained the publication of a libel in Texas Was made cognizabieand punishuble in Mexieo, And thus Mr. Cutting was assumed to be prop- erly held.” ‘You will see by this that our information is,” said Mr.Bayard toTHESTAR mon “that Mr. Cutting was atrested tor the publication in Bi Paso, Texas, You seo whut the treaty says that we shall do. We are now doing It.” a Presidential Postmasters Appointed. A LIST OF LEFT-OVER NOMINEES REAPPOINTED. The President to-day appointed the following postizasters: Jacob J.

THEIR RELATIONS OF A PLEASANT CHARACTER AND No DESIRE ON THE PART OF THE LAT- TER TO REMOVE THE COMMISSIONER, A STAR reporter to-day made inquirles from. high official sources with regard to the pub- lished report that Pension Commissioner Black 1s to be sent to Austriaas United States min- ister, because Secretary Lamar wants to get him out of the pension office. The reporter was in- formed that there is absolutely no truth in any report of unpleasant relations between the Secretary and the Cominissioner. There nas never been any Jar between them, and they are in entire accord as to the adininistration of the pension office. Secretary Lamar said to the reporter that the Telutions between himself and General Black are now, as they have been all along, of the most cordial character. Should Gen. Black be sent to Austria it would be at his own in- stance, and not to get him out of his present position, He has not yet returned from the grand army meeting at Sau Francisco. General Black, who isa constantsufferer from. the effects of wounds received in the army, finds his present position a very trying one. It requires the closest attention and naturally there is much in conuection with it of a hur- Tussing nature to one in his physical condition. He migh. preter to abandon it for a position en: tailing less application; but It he should uecept the Austrian mission it would be conferred upon him asa matter ot his personal preference. ———— cee —___ Catting Sentenced to Prison.
