The President Likely to Appoint Judge ‘Woods Instead of Mr. Miller. President Harrison is said to be shaken in his determination to promote Attorney-General Miller to a seat on the Supreme bench. Mr. Miller would like the place, and it would please the President to gratify him, but there are several considerations that make him hesitate. One of the principal of these is said to be the claims of Judge Woods, of the Federal court at Indiana, for consideration, Judge Woods is immensely popular in the state, and is strong in pohtics, Friends throughout the state claim for him that he deserves the appointment on the Supreme bench because of his eminent fit- ness for the place and on account of his party standing. It is said that it will be difficult fot the President to overlook this claim, and he hesitating between the two men. He fears ointment of Miller might look as been a trade in the first instance, when Miller first went into the Department of Justice that be was to stay there but a short while and then go on to the Supreme bench.

The Retirement of Adjutant-General Drum and Its Results. ‘The coming retirement of Adjutant-General Drum still continues to occupy the attention of army officers, who are busy casting the horo- scopes of the various persons interested in that event. The proposition to make Col. Whipple adjutant-general over the head of Col. Kelton, his superior in rank, in order that he may re- tire with the rank of brigadier-general instead of that of colonel, is regarded by many as un- just in that it would be a perversion of the law of promotion by rank, a principle very dear to an army officer. The Kelton is younger than Col. WI gued, is no good reason why he should be shelved for thirteen months and lose that much pay and time merely more brigadier may be pnt upon the re- tired list.
