Dvusugue, Iowa, April 11.—When United State Marshal Desmond went out to Fort Dodge a few days ago to enforce the processes of evic- tion against the Des Moines river lands set- tlers, his posse was met by a force of settlers armed with Winchester rifles. Being power- less before them he returned to Dubuque for reinforcements, and laid the case before Judge Shiras of the United States district court an- nouncing that he proj jove upon the sottecd Gilly ani nae’ foeea cat Being’ all re- sisting settlers before the court for punish- ment. Yesterday Judge Shiras issued a document to Marshal Desmond in which he reviews the situation from a judicial standpoint. He saya the course proposed by Marshal Desmond is eminently proper and that resistance to Federal authority is A SPECIES OF REBELLION which calls for prompt suppression, but in view of the fact that the Secretary of the Interior has officially requested the Attorney-General of the United States to examine into the past history and the present condition of the dis- puted titles to the river lands, for the purpose of determining whether it may not be expedi- “SPIKERS” AT THE WHITE HO! They are Even More Trying to the President Than the Office-Seekers. BOTH CLASSES ARE ON HAND, HOWEVER, MAKING A DOUBLE AFFLICTION—ILLINOIS NOT CAPTUR- ING MANY OFFICES—A LONELY ONIOAN—OTHER CALLERS AND THEIR MISSIONS, The President is now suffering from an ag- gregation of evil which’ is infinitely more try- ing to his good nature than numberless per- sonal appeals for office. The affliction comes from the crowd which has, more especially during to-day and yesterday, declared that it did not want anything for itself, but it did want to prevent some particular candidate from getting a position for which he may have been urged. “Spikers” is the name by which these men are known, end they earned the title by the persistant manner in which they had performed or attempted to perform the task of spiking the political guns which have been trained, perhaps, against them. These delega- tions of “‘spikers” have no candidates of their own; they have no ambition, save to lower the standard of some aspiring one. They annoy the President very much, but he has to listen to them, because he wants the truth and only the truth as to the character of men who are looking for public office. He recognizes the animus which incites aud moves the “spikers,” and yet there is no escape from hearing them traduce one of their neighbors simply anse they do not want him to succeed in his quest after salary and distinction. ‘THE OFFICE-SEERER, was not, however, excluded to-day, Senator Hiscock led the procession and Senator Plumb wasagood second, Neither of them stayed THE TRACKS MUST GO. * HIS SOUTH PO!

THE COMMISSIONERS ORDER THER REMOVAI—A PERMIT REVOKED — ANOTHER LETTER FROM MESSRS, PARKER AND DWYER—MAJOR RAY- ‘MOND'S RECOMMENDATIONS, The Commissioners this morning spent some time considering the alleged unlawfal oceu- pancy and closing of streets in South Washing- ton by the tracks and fences of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad company. Major Ray- mond called the board's attention to the case, and asked that immediate action be taken in relation to the H and 18th street tracks. The Commissioners, after some sharp arguments, concluded that the tracks must go, and accord- ingly issued an order directing the railroad company to remove the tracks at the above- named places immediately. The following is THE OFFICIAL ORDER. Ordered, “That the orders ot the Commis- sioners of the District of Columbia, dated June 2, 1883, and April 10, 1834, granting permission to the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad com- pany to layasingle track switch to connect their road by way of 13th street southwest with squares Nos. 300 and 270, are hereby revoked, and said company be notified to remove said tracks within sixty days from date, and restore the streets to their original condition as pro- vided in said orders of June 2, 1883, and April 10, 1884.” IN RELATION TO THE 13TH STREET TRACK the following letter was sent to Mr. E, Kurtz Johnson, August 19, 1987: “Referring to the permit under date of June 2, 1833, to the Balti- more and Potomac railroad company to lay a pointed Leader. The President's policy with relation to the southern appointments has been made clear to the southern office-seekers here, and there is not a little unavailing discontent. He has de clared his intention to select none but men who have the respect of their neighbors, and who are intelligentand capable, He wants to rec- ognize young men, and progressive men, who can do the party good, and will not act merely as leeches for the party because of what they can get out of it. Any distinguished and capa- ble man, who is a republican in principle whether so by avowal or not, may be selected for appointment. The idea is to get rid of the f-constituted leaders who bring the party into disrepute, and to let down all the barriers that ape white protectionists out, ported tha: asouthern “leader” who called with a delega- tion lately to see about the apportionment of the patronage of his state. had been there many times before, and was assuming to control the patronage of the state. “Now,” the President is reported as saying, after listening to him for a moment, “you hare been here several times, and I have heard you, I know you, Mr. —-—, and know of you very well, distribute the tronage of that state.” THE COLUMBIAN ALUMNI.

THE QUFSTION, Notwithstanding Lieut, Kelly's theory that the late George Juenemann was killed by a train on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and the circrmstances in- dicated, a member of the detective corps was detailed to investigate the case. Yesterday the coroner determined to make a post-mortem ex- amination this morning, but Dr. Johnson was sent for and the examination was fhade yester- @ay afternoon, The post-mortem was made in the presence of the detective who is at work upon the case. The officer examined the body made his report to Major Moore this morning. He reported that with the exception of two cuts the wounds on the body were superficial. The | cut over the right eye of the deceased, he re ported, caused a blood clot on the brain which was the cause of death. The body does not present the appearance of a man b: beaten; that such a thing is impre cause the blows were administered on one side of the body.

Not Known at the Department When They Will Arrive. Cuicaco, April 11.—Mr. B. W. Wells, of this whose son, a naval cadet, was on board one of the wrecked men-of-war in the harbor at Apia, and who was among the saved, has re- ceived a communication from the N. | ment under date 9th inst.. in wh formed that up to that time the depa had received no news from Admiral Kimberly since his dispatch announcing the disaster at Apia. Upon the receipt of this cablegram the | department authorized the admiral to use his discretion as to the wrecked ships and crews at- tached to them. It was thought that a vessel could be chartered at Auckland for the trans- portation of the officers and men to San Fran- cisco, but since Lieut. Wilson, Admiral Kim- berly’s representative at that place, has gone to Sidney, it is possible that a suitable vessel could not be obtained at Auckland. It is therefore impossible to tell when they may be expected to arrive at San Francisco. I cadets of the ¢lass of '87 who were on the wrecked ships had been ordered to report for final examination at the Naval Academy between May 1 and May 10. Should they reach the United States in time to Visit their homes before the expiration of the peziod allowed for reporting they will be at liberty to do so, —— Seventeen Bloody Rounds Fought.

Representative Henderson, wanted to introduce of Illinois, merely a friend—Dr. Loomis, THE ONLY OHIOAN. Representative Grosvenor was the only Obioan present, He was just as pleasant, and looked as bright as though he had been promised an armfnl of good places for hard-working Buck- eye republicans. He reallydid not have an, promises, but he was hopeful and happy, if aj pearances are not very deceptive. Representative Springer, who was supposed to have said “good-bye” to the President yes- terday, and who actually did so, found it necessary to call at the White House again to- day. He experience considerable difficulty in tearing himself away from the administration, although it differs from him somewhat as to its polities. Senators Blair and Marston were the only New Englanders who put in an appearance. They remained in the library for some time. CIVIL-SERVICE RULE 10. Representative Taylor introduced Wm. M. Baxter, of Tennessee, and just as they went out Representative Houk came in to remind the President of the fact that he had not made pub- lic his decision as to civil-service rule 10, ‘The same subject was brought a few minutes, later by J Odell, of Austin, Texas and W, Odell. A number of in- stances were quoted to the president wherein injury had been done to old sol- diers who, although they were efticient clerks, were diseharged by the last administration, The President said the proposition to amend would have to be carefully studied and he would consider it at the earliest possible mo- ment. Representatives Owen, Anderson, of Kansas, and Burton were the ouly other congressional Visitors, Gen. E.

A DOZEN PRETTY GIRLS. Shortly before 1 o'clock a party of twelve pretty girls from a Texas female college were admitted to the library, where they shook hands with the President. ‘Their appearance caused quite a commotion | among the few belated office-seekers who had either arrived after the dour of the cabinet room was shut or had failed to secure an aa- dience.

The Commissioners to-day received the fol- lowing communication from Messrs. Charles H. Parker and Philip N. D “In this age it seems absurd for the off Is of the capital city of the nation to refuse answer to busi- ness letters from tax-payers calling attention to gross and open violation of the laws, uch ix the fact. Is it possible that the District authorities decline to enforce the laws through of wounding the tender feelings of the ; Baltimore and Potomac railroad company, or are they desirous of benefiting the company i essary de Can we think other- Every movement of the District officiais indicate a great respect for the legal rights of the company, and in addition show that the Commissioners put themselves to consid- erable trouble to find absurd reasons that th "Y use as excuse for suggesting—in fact recommending a certain way whereby the com- pany may secure unlawful ‘privileges, and at the same time openly violate the laws and_to the discredit of the District government. Why is it that the Commissioners want the assistant district attorney. Mr. Davis, to give an opinion on the railroad matter ? IT IS VERY STRANGE, Have they not the official opinion of A. G. Rid- dle, District attorney? an opinion which the Commissioners deemed at one time good enough to send to Congress as their idea of the law, interpreted by the legal official of the Dis- trict. Have they not a copy of the United States Statutes and the police reg- ulations, which plainly state how the railroad company is to be governed? Have they not the opinion of the engineer commissioner and the most important. the decision of the U. 8. Supreme Court, the highest authority in the country? Think for one moment of the con- dition of the matter, with all these proofs, and Yet they ask the assistant attorney to give his opinion, Ishe he may say, “While I think the occupation of certain streets by the railroad company is il- | legal, I would recommend that the company be allowed to continue to do wrong in order to save it expense and trouble, While it is evi- dent from the actions of the District that the company is violating the laws,it seems that the whole ambition of certain officials is to endeavor to assist the railroad company in breaking the laws which they (the officials) have sworn to obey and carry out, * It is the opinion of all honest men thet any official who designs to officially say “let the company violate the law,” in fact, recommend that the company be assisted in doing so, is GUILTY OF MALFEASANCE IN OFFICE and should be treated as any other criminal. Gentlemen, the proper officials to pass upon the railroad subject is the eng sioner, Major Raymond, and District Attorn! Riddle. The former recommends that the Commissioners protect the honor of the District government by latter states that certain tracks are illegal. Why then ask Capt. Symons, Major Raymond’ sistant, and Mr. Davis, who 1s also an assistant, Don't the opinions of Messrs. Raymond and Riddle please you, or are the opinions distast ful to the company? We would suggest that in case the opinions of the two assistants are not pleasing to the railroad company that you secure new oficials—ofticials who have no idea cials who could be charmed by the music of a locomotive whistle, In some cities of less importance such action by sworn ofticials would result in their impeach- ment, As usual we DEMAND REPLIES TO OUR LETTERS, If we are wrong why not say so like men of nerve and back your replies with proper laws, Until the authorities reply to our letters and act justly by the taxpayers we will continue to gently remind you of the fact that you permit unlawful acts in this city of Washington, We will this day notify the President that the Commissioners’ attention has been called to the fact that gross violations of the laws are knowingly permitted; that we cannot secure a business-like answer to our letters; that the Commissioners have acknowledged the viola- tions and now recommend that the said viola- tions continue.” Major Raymond’s Recommendations. Major Raymond has considered complaints recently made by Messrs, Parker and Dwyer, and submits the following recommendations for the consideration of the board: ‘That the railroad company be directed to re move its fences from the line of the roadway of Estreet, to erect safety gates, and to put the tracks’in proper condition for crossing.
