Gossip as to Secretary Proctor’s Successor if He Should Be Chosen Senator. The orly question to be discussed in connec- tion with the Vermont senatorial situation is whether Redfield Proctor will be ap- Pointed Senator by the governor or elected Senator by the Vermont legis lature. All the probabilities point to the latter action. In the ordinary course of down-eastern events there would be no legisla- tive session in the Green Mountain state until October, 1892, and the governor would, therefore, have to appoint a successor to Senator Edmunds, but it so happens that numerous causes combine to make an extra session of the legislature almost cer- tain. The last legislature was interested in the fisheries of the state and it made appropriative rovision for the establishment of a ish-hatchery. After the legislature had made the requisite law resentative Grout succeeded in securing congressional con- sent and the nation’s money for the same pur- pose, but unless the legislature repeals its own act, both the United States and the state will gointo the fish-hatching business and there will be an unuecessary expenditure of state funds, IN FAVOR OF AN EXTRA SESSION. This is one of the considerations urged in favor of an extra session. Another reason is found in the fact that Congress provided for the erection of a public building at St. Albans, but no action can be taken toward construc- tion until a title is conveyed to the United States by legislative enactment. St. Albans cannot wait until October, 1892, so her People want an extra session. A’third and a powerful reason is found in the fact that Ver- mont will get a large elice of the results of the direct tax bill as soon as the legislature pro- vides for its reception. Interest on Vermont's share, from now to October, 1892, amounts to $20,000, more than sufficient te pay the ex- penses of the extra session. SECRETARY PROCTOR'S SUCCESSOR. No other name but that of Secretary Proc- tor’s is mentioned in connection with the suc- cession, but there is any quantity of gossip as to who may be given command of the War Department. The names of Gen. Alger and J. B. Clarkson bob up as usual, but both of those gentlemen are evi- dently out of the question. Mr. Clarkson wants no more of official life and Gon. Alger is very busily engaged in figuring out how he will, some of these days, be dispensing cabinet © frees for himself.’ Ex-Senator Ingalls might have been considered, say some, had he not moved into the Farmers’ Alliance party with such unexpected rapidity. Others, however, insist that is agricultural connections, recent though they be, would be of much value to the administration. With the Kan- sas statesman at its head the War Depart- ment would be more aggressive than the Mafia, TWO EASTERN MEN MENTIONED. Eastern republicans are inclined to believe that a Massachusetts or Vermont man may be found who will fill the bill and their sugges- tions include yap secre Greenhalge of Massachusetts and Interstate Commerce Com- missioner Veazey of Vermont. To the average observer there would not seem to be any poli- tics in inviting Mr. Greenhalge into the cabinet uniess there’ would be some advantage im giving the foreign-born citizens of the United States a representative in the President's _—offici: family, for Greenhalge was born in England. The ap~ Peintment of Gen. Veazey would, though, received with delight by the Union veterans, for the general is now commander- in-chief’ of the Grand Army. Whether he inclines toward the honor is not known, however. He has a good position now, with a long term, and at the end of that there is probability of reappointment. MAY BE GEN. LEW WALLACE. A few of the expectant ones who have been loafing around the hotels ever since March 4, 1889, freely express their fears that the Presi- dent may have to go to Indiana for a suitable man. If this be true the chances are that Sec- retary Proctor’s mantle will fall on the capable shoulders of Gen. Lew Wallace. semana HAYTI AND THE WORLD'S FAIR, Minister Douglass’ Dispatch to Secretary Blaine on the Subject. The Sceretary of State has received a dis- patch from Hon. Frederick Donglass, minister to Hayti, concerning the visit of Br. F. A. Ober, the special commissioner for the world’s Columbian exposition to that re- public. Mr. Douglass says that Mr. Ober's intelligent zealand gentlemanly deportment made it both agreeable and easy for the lega- tion to give to his mission the cordial co-oper- ation which would have been rendered in any case on the ground of duty. He states that he lost no time in securing for Mr. Ober an interview with Mr. Firmin, the minister of foreign affairs, to whom he presented in a clear and forcible manners the purpose of his visit, outlining the interest already shown by Cuba, and felicitously stating what was desired from Hayti. Mr. Dougiass availed himself of the opportunity to second all that Mr, Ober had said in regard to the im- portance of the exposition and the desirability of having Hayti fitly and fully represented. Mr. Firmin assured them of his interest in favor of the participation of his country in the proposed exposition and expressed his regret that the absence from the capital of his colleague, with President Hyppolite pre- vented him from laying the subject immediately before the government, The hope was expressed that on Mr. Ober's return to Hayti at the ex- piration of a few weeks he would find them in the city, when definite action would be taken by the government for an honorable participa- tion in the exposition. The minister states that the commissioner left a pleasing impres- sion behind him, both of himself personally and in favor of his mission. Presidential Postmasters Appointed.

Mr. Dalton, the ex-postmaster of the House, who isone of the best informed democratic politicians of Indiana, is in the city for a brief visit, Speaking with a Star reporter about the situation of affairs in his state, he said that the people there were not thinking very much about politics just at this time. They have been having some bad crops for # year or two and now seeing @ promise of « good season they are busy preparing to get tho best they can ont of it. There is no doubt, he says, that Mr. Harrison will havea solid delegation from Indiana in the next re- publican national convention; though there is some opposition to him among the republicans in the state. CLEVELAND'S HOLD ON THE DEMOCRATS. “As for the democrats,” he says, “I do not think there can be any doubt about the hold Cleveland hason the mass of the people of Indiana, as he has in many other states. It is hard to judge just how much-opposition to hin his silver letter may have provoked. There are politicians who are fighting against him, but the workingmen and business men have confidence in him. They believe him to be honest and frank and they are for him. Iam in the stone business, and know how the men who work for me feel. They do not care any- thing about politics as a professional politician does, but they like aman they can trust, and if, you ask them who is their candidate for the Presidency 9 per cent of them will reply, “Grover Cleveland.” “Among the steady, hard-working farmers about the same state’ of feeling is found, and among the bankers and well-to-do business men it is the same way. He has the conserva~ tive laborers, the bankers and the substantial agriculturists among the democrats, and these three classes of citizens area power greater than the practical politician can control.” ereresaniatacnaa REFORM IN THE NAVY YARDS, How Skilled and Unskilled Laborers Will Be Pat to Work. Secretary Tracy's new scheme for the reform of the public service in the navy yards will probably be put into effect within a few days Assistant Secretary Soley is now at work pre- paring set of rules and regulations that will furnish the machinery for the system, and these are expected to be ready for promulgation this week. Mr. Soley is woll qualified for this work of preparation, as by the direction of the Sec- retary he recently visited Boston, where he made an exhaustive study of the system of em- ploying labor on municipal work. TEE PLAN IX BOSTON. He said this morning toaSrae reporter: “The city of Boston is the only one in the country that has eliminated polities from the municipal labor field, and the general idees and methods of this system are to be taken as the undation upon which Secretary Tracy will build his reform. The main feature is a ublic registration of applicants for work of oth the rkilled and tnskilled classes. Appli- cantsare tobe registered in the order of coming and taken for work in turn. In the case of unskilled labor the first consideration is experien cond, preference is to be given to veterans, and third, ehoice fall upon men with the largest nt sous dependent upon weigh in the order of their as to x “There will be a separate register kept of aps plicants for skilled labor, but these men will be tested in some manner, not yet determined yy ining their value. There may be some sort of probationary term devised. “It is not anticipated that the insuguration of the new system will at once alter many existing conditions at the naval establishments in the various of the country, but that the growth of the new plan will be gradual, finally extending, as the registration lists grow, to include every man in the employ of the Navy Department'as.a laborer. The force of a navy yard is largely a shifting one and it is not to be expected that there will be any wholesale discharges at present. It must be borne in mind that the element of politics is to be ab solutely eliminated from the employment of labor." There will not be the least inguiry into the political faith of applicants.” It is understood that the new scheme has the hearty support of most of the public men who have anything to do with the distribution of navy yard patronage,since it relieves them from a heavy burden. ‘They will no longer be open to the onslaughts of constituents eager for places, and they will be put in the position of saying, truthfully, that they have nothing to say about appointments. ence ee ee eee THE CITY POST OFFICE SITE.

JOHN W. THOMPSON TESTIFIES. John W. Thompson téstified that he sold his property on Pennsylvania avenue adjoining Harvey's at an average of $8.44 per foot. He did not think that the establishment of the power house had the effect to enhance prop- erty in that neighborhood. The project of the establishment of the post’ office had improved values on the avenue somewhat. more. Some sales in that was called to Mr. Thompson's attention and he said they confirmed in his opinion. ‘The Vermont to Washington was caused by a personal reason in addition to his desire to see the President Gen.
