Must ze Crrizexs or rae Usirep States.— The solicitor of the Treasury has given an opinion to the Secretary of the Treasury that the laws regulating the appraisement of im- ported merchandise require that merchants who are selected ag reappraising “oficers, whether to be associated with the general ap. raiser or not, shall be citizens of the United tates, The Secretary hag acquiesced in this opinion, and customs officers have been in- structed to act in accordance therewith. This ruling will make a change in the (Pretice pre- vailing at the port of New York. The collector at that port held that the law did not require merchant appraisers selected to act with the Kenorgl appraiser to be citizens of the United tates.

Y.; West Superior, Wis. Blaine and Belmont. THE FORMER NOT LIKELY TO OPPOSE THE COX- FIRMATION OF THE LATTER AS MINISTER TO SPAIN. It has been said that Mr. Blaine will use his influence to prevent the confirmation of Mr. Belmont as minister to Spain. A gentleman who is familiar with the facts connected with the famous controversy between Mr. Blaine and Mr. Belmont, which occurred some years ago, assured a Star reporter this morning that neither had a, such ill-will toward the other as would It in a desire for re- venge or retaliation. Both, he said, have since regretted the publicity given to the afiair, and ve carefully avoided speak- ing di ly of each other since. He sonal; particularly as fee! this connection, ho was confident that he would oppose Mr. Belmont’s tration, is said to be Mr. W. M. Meredith, the president of the Western Engraving and Print- ing company, at Chicago. He has been fore- ‘man in several newspaper offices, and is Other that he ‘the the E 5 F : i if HARRISON'S CABINET. Gossip Afloat in Washington To-day. ‘MR. SHERMAN HATES DIPLOMACY—BUT HE MIGHT AccEPT THE PoRTFoLio or tax stare vz-| RENEWED TERROR IN LONDON | , 20%?0%; Nov. 21.—An explosion occurred at PARTMENT—ALLISON OB CLARKSON FROM IOWA? TALK ABOUT THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS. If Mr. Sherman accepts the Secretaryship of State under Mr. Harrison it will not be on ac- count of his love of diplomatic affairs, His connection with the foreign affairs committee, of course, associates him with those matters and carries with it a familiarity with the sub- ject, but his distaste for all “foreign entangle- ments” and delicate diplomacy is well known among his colleagues, He has a mind that can grasp most any subject he is disposed to give his attention to, but his disposition to avoid foreign questions and the evident effort it- cost him to give his attention to them when he thought it his duty has been the subject of pleasantry among his associates on the com- mittee. His position on that committee wasan honor to him in recognition of his ability and service, but it was known that he had an abso- lute dislike for the work. He is too itive and too direct to tolerate the cireumlocution of diplomacy long. The Canadian question, which comes most closely to our own domestic affairs, is about the only thing he has Set omen an interest in. In the State department he would probably adopt a firm American policy, but he would not be dis- posed, it is thought, to interest himself much in the affairs of other nations. A many people who know how he feels about these matters express the opinion that he would not accept the rtfolio of State, yet there is a power and ignity in the office which might be attractive to , and it is probable thathe can have it if he desires, ALLISON AND CLARKSON. There is much talk about Mr. Clarkson's going into the cabinet or some other office. He is looked upon as at about the head of (a affairs in Iowa now, and it is not like- ly that he would accept anything less than a cabinet position. It . believed many that he has no ambition for that, If Mr. Allison should go into the Treasury department, that would, of course, leave Mr. Clarkson out of the cabinet. There would then be an opening much more to his liking. The seat vacated in the Senate by Mr. Allison would be a plumb for some ambitious Iowa republican, and Mr. Clarkson might get it. The honor would lie between him and ex-Representative Hepburn. When in the House Mr. (eas was regarded a8 one of the strongest men on the republican side, and he might prove a strong rival Yet Mr. Clarkson's friends believe he can get most anything he wants of Iowa. Mr. Allison may not want to go into the cabinet. He may prefer to hold his present honorable position. OTHER PORTFOLIOS, It is regarded as pretty certain that Mr. New wants and expects to go into the cabinet. He may be satisfied with a foreign mission. Some doubt is being expressed now about Gen. Alger’s being made Becretary of War. The assumption has been upon the notion that some sort of agreement was entered into at Chi- cago, but it does not appear what the consider- ation was that induced Mr. Harrison to hold out such a promise to the Michigan millionaire, Gen. Alger has, doubtless, been a large con- tributor tothe campaign fund, but there are several of such contributors. Jerre Rusk, of ‘isconsin, may get that place. A good many reasons are given why Mr. ta AOE would make a good Secre- of the Navy. Tt is acce; ted ‘on all bands that Wanamaker is to be the Postinaster-General. The friends of Mr. W. W. Murray, of Tennes- see, believe that he is likely to get a call into Mr. Harrison's cabinet. They say that if any southern man is selected for this distinction Mr. Murray is apt to be chosen for Attorney- General. He is probably the most prominent republican of that state and is a member of the republican national committee. DISTRICT APPROPRIATIONS. The Sub-Committee Conferring with the District Commissioners. The House committee on appropriations held & meeting to-day and discussed briefly the gen- eral situation as to the appropriation bills. There was nothing that they could do, as a committee, until the sub-committees had some bill ready for them, so that with a general un- derstanding that the work of the committee should be disposed of as rapidly as possible, they adjourned, subject to call as soon as a sub-committee should be ready to report. Four members of the sub-committee in charge of the District bill—Messrs. Clements, Rice, Henderson and McComas—were present and held an informal conference with the Dis- trict Commissioners. They talked over the bill in a general way, suggesting 40 the Com- missioners a certain line of inquiry they would want to pursue, and then adjourned, having made an appointment with the Commissioners to meet them at the Capitol to-morrow. They ified their desire to get through with this bill as soon as possible. Their design is to have it ready to at to the House on the first Monday in December, the day of reas- sembling. Mr. Felix Campbett was the only member of the sub-committee not present. He sent a letéer stating that he was unavoidably detained. The President at Oak View. HE WILL REMAIN THERE THIS MONTH PREPARING HIS ANNUAL MESSAGE. It was announced at the White House to-day that the President will remain at Oak View until about the meeting of Congress in order to devote his entire time, without interruption, to the preparation of his annual message to Con- gress. He will deny himself to all callers except officials who call on public business, and his afternoon receptions to the public will be sus- ended until after the meeting of Congress, The President did not come into the city Y, and will not visit the White House again this month unless it is found necessary to meet the members of the cabinet there. Speaker of the Next House, Mr. Burrows has been casually mentioned nowand then in connection with the speaker- ship of the next House. It has not beep gene- rally known, however, that he is an re can- didate for that position.

They Made Dollar and Half-dollar Coins that Deceived even Experts. Borrato, Nov. 21.—Chief Bell, of the govern- ment secret service, with several of his men, has for the past few days been closing in around @ gang of counterfeiters who have been mak- be money of a kind that was almost im- R ible to detect, in dollars and half-dollars. None but experts have thus far been able totell the spurious money from the genuine, andonly after it has been carried some time, when the coin begins to turn black, can its true value be discovered. Large quantities of the spurious coin have been circulated in Erie, Pa., Warren, Pa., Oil City, Pa.and Jamestown. Some of the stuff also reached Buffalo. Seven of the gang are under arrest. The authorities thought it best to separate them and put them in differ- ent jails. “Squire” Richardson, one of the men whom it is alleged attended to the manufacture of the money, was brought to Buffalo last evening and taken to the Erie county oe Richardson is fully 60 years of age, and it is thought he will “squeal” on the whole party, More ar- rests are expected. The prisoners are scatter- ed in different county ji in New York and Pennsylvania, The names of the: others are not known. —_.___ SUPPRESSING THE SLAVE TRADE. Energetic Measures Being Taken on the East African Coast.

The alave owners have unite: in a monster petition it the enforcement of the law against the ve traffic, which they assert has,been in practical abeyance for many Tears.

It was necessary that the authority of court should be maintained, and therefore such things must be sto} He then fined Mr, Harrington £500. oy MORE TESTIMONY REGARDING THE MURDER. The taking of testimony was then resumed. George Curtin was called. He gave the details of the murder of his father. After the murder the Curtin family were boycotted and their male servants were compelled to leave their service; On cross-examination Curtin testified that he was a member of the league when it was first organized. His father was vice-president of a branch. Witness had no reason to believe that the ar es was implicated in the crimes against his family. Various branches of the league, he said, denounced the murder of his father. Norah Fitzmaurice deposed that in June, 1887, a letter signed by & man named Dowling, secretary of a branch of the league, was re- ceived by her father, ay beeery! him to attend amecting. Her father did not go to the meect- ing. After this incident the people's demeanor toward her father changed, and .he obtained lice protection. Witness gave in detail the Foote in connection with the shooting of her father while he was on_his way to attend the Listowel fair in January On cross-examination witness stated that her father and uncle had disagreed respecting the farm on which her father resided, and the people sided with her uncle. She knew that the league had been suppressed in County ‘erry. Counsel for tho Parnellites here read an ar- ticle published in the Kerry Sentinel condemn- ing the murder of Fitzmaurice and regretting that the league had been suppressed and the beneficial effects which arose from the organi- zation had been lost. aise BANK FAILURE AT NORFOLK. The Home Savings Bank Ruined by a Recent Run on it. Norrork, Va., Nov. 21.—The Home Savings bank of this city suspended this morning. The reason assigned for the failure by the board of directors is that the reports recently circulated affecting its credit poheled: a run on the bank. The published statement giving its condition October 4, states among the rescources, loans, and discounts, $276,487; overdrafts, $3,172, an TWO CENTS. BLOWN UP BY PETROLEUM. Explosion on Shipboard at Bristol—Three Men Killed. Bristol this morning on board the schooner United, which was laden with $10 barrels of | petroleum. The vessel was wrétked, and three | men, who were at work on board, were killed. | Burning oil floated on the water and caused great consternation among vessel-owners, who | ‘eared the flames would communicate to their | own craft. No other damage, however, was, done to shipping, the efforts to prevent the burning oil from reaching the vessels proving successful, The force of the explosion was 80 in the buildings near the scene of Xplosion. ADVISING G HARRISON, Mr. Clarkson Gave the President-Elect Pointers on New York. IxpraNapouis, Nov. 21.—There seems to be no foundation for the published report that ex- Senator Warner Miller, ex-Sevator Piatt, | Senator Frank Hiscock and Chauncey M. Depew will accompany Vice-President-clect Morton and wife on their coming visit to Gen. and Mrs. Harrison. Mr. Morton's contemplated | visit is looked upon as an inte! of social amenities and no unusual political significance is, atthis juncture, associated with it. The date will probably'be announced at an early | day. It is reliably stated that Gen, Harrison has determined to go east. Nething is known here of the reported invi- tation extended to Senator Allison. Those in a position to form a good opinion think that in view of Vice-Chairman Clarkson's intimate friendship with Senator Allison, he may prac- tically be regarded as the latter's representa- tive in any interchange of Political, views, be- tween the Senator and the Presidept-elect. Should Senator Allison visit the President-elect close upon the heels of his friend, Colonel Clarkson, after the latter's consultation yesterday and last night, such a visit would doubtiess be regarded here with considerable significance. There is pretty good reason here | for believing that a goodly part of Vice-Chair- man Clarkson's conversation with Gen. Harrison was devoted to the political gituation in New York state as viewed by the former after a| four months’ residence there and commingling | with the leaders of the old factions in the Em- pire state. It is this experience with, and fresh Cees knowledge of, eastern men and affairs at Col, Clarkson is believed to have been im- ing to the President-elect. The correspond- ent would add, in the absence of his ability to uote either of the participating authorities, fiat the situation it York, from an ad- | ministrative standpoint, is thought here to have some exceedingly puzzling and prospec- tively conflicting features growing out of the ambitious expectations of leading statesmen and politicians. “JACK, THE RIPPER,” AGAIN. He Attempts to Butcher Another Woman, But She Fights Him Off.
