Warm Campaign Work-Ahead—Demo- crats not Sure df Capturing the House. There were only about six members of Con- gress who had any use for the Capitol today. ‘There were not more than three in the hall at any one time and none of them stayed more than a few minutes, Speaker Reed left for home today and nearly all the members who could get train accommodations are on their way home or will start today, Tho ticket offices have been doing big a business last night and today, and a number of members have had to delay their departure a day or two because no sleeping car accommodations could be had. WARM WORK AMEAD. mbers are eager to get into the fall cam- paign and are expecting to have hot work from the moment they strike the boundary lines of their respective districts, Mcst of them have engagements for speeches for every weck between now and November, those who have no trouble at home being engaged to work for their friends and colleagues, Some have made arrangements, to —. in districts through which they pass on the way home. During the session there has been much talk of the “certainty” that the democrats would have a majority in the next Congress, and many republicans have been ready to concede that the democrats would clect the next Speaker. DEMOCRATS NOT AS SANGUINE AS THEY WERE. But, taking a closer view of the campaign as they are about to enter it, the democrats are not as sanguine and the republicans are in better fighting trim. ‘The democratic cam- Paign committee are sending out large quantities of documents, but are short of money, and the local committees are expected to take charge of affairs at home, Republican members of the present House are not the only ones who are having aclose fight for re-glec-tion. Several democrats are in dangerous position and there is going to be the hardest fighting that politicians can make. OHIO NOT 80 SURE FOR THE DEMOCRACY. Thero is a chance that the demccrats will not make as many gains in Ohio as they have been calculating on. Mr. McKinley is very apt to be re-elected, and the fighting ground is spread out so jo tax the resources of the cammit- toes. THE DESERTED CAPITOL. The Cayitol was almost deserted, A few sightseers were in the corridors and in the ro- tunda a small artay of scrubbers was engaged in the task of effacig from the walls and steps evidences of the wear and tear of a ten months’ session. A few newspaper men wandered around, hoping against hope that some serap of news would repay them for their visit. But everything was dead. In the Senate chamber not a Senator appeared and only the merry voices of the page boys were heard as they prepared the files of the Record for bind- ing. In the committee rooms the clerks were busily employed in attending to the business of the chairmen, franking documents and answering letters, But an air of “fall house- cleaning” pervaded every nook and corner of the huge building. THE PARK COMMISSION. The Board Mcets Promptly and - ganizes Today. The Rock Creek Park commission, which was completed when the Senate yesterday con- firmed the nominations of Gen. Boynton, Prof. Langley and Mr. Ross Perry as members, met today at 12:30 o'clock in the private room ad- joining Gen. Casey's office in the War De- partment, The members of the commission present were Gen. Casey and the three gentle- men named, Capt. Rossell,who by the terms of the act is the executive officer of the commis. sion, was also present. The commission organ- ized by electing Gen. Casey as president, It was determined that tentative sur- veye should be made showing dif- ferent outlines of the park, so that the Commissioners might with these tentative outlines make an actual inspection of the grounds and detefmine what lines should be ultimately adopted in order toinclude the most eeresee part of the valley within the park limits, 1¢ was further resolved that Mr. Perry should consult the first controller of the Treas- ury with respect to the best manner of conducting the financial business of the board. As it was thought that about two weeks would be required to prepare the ten- tative maps, within which time, also, it is hoped that Commissioner Robert, the’ only member absent today, will be fully restored to health, the commission adjourned to Octo- ber 13. The meetings will beregularly held in Gen. Casey's office. —.s UNCONFIRMED NOMINATIONS. Twelve Appointments Which Didn’t Get Through the Senate. In the ten months of the session that closed yesterday President Harrison sent to the Sen- ate 3,837 nominations, of which all but twelve were confirmed. As many of these nomina- tions contained the name of more than one person they represented probably 4,500 appointments, Several hundred of these nominations were postmasters at offices which have become presidential through the growth of business, They also include the appointments in connection with the census, nearly all of which are temporary in their nature. In the first session of the Forty-ninth Congress, which lasted eight mouths, President Cleveland sent to the Senate 2,696 nominations, ‘The following are the nominations of the session just closed which failed of confirmation: Wm. Monahan of Ohio, consul at Hamilton, Canada; Horace W. Metcalf of Maine, consul at Bermuda; Maj. Lewis Merrill, retired, to be lieutenant colonel of cavalry from January 9, 1886; Alonzo L. Richardson, marshal for the district of Idaho; Louis Desmarias, coiner of the mint at New Orleans; Rev. John L. Galvin of Ohio, post chaplain; James F. Burnett of Las Cruces, Indian agent in New Mexico; James H. Young, collector of customs, Wilmington, N.C., and the following postmasters: James Haines, jr., at Jeannette, Pa,; Wm. R. Cole, at Pottsville, Pa.; Frank H. Button, at Corry, Pa.; Carl C. Crippen, at Eustis, Fla, Criticising a British Vice Consul.
