Senator Quay Wants Certain Appointments Made Before He Ketires. It is generally believed here that the little uncertainty Mr. Quay confesses to with regard to his retirement from the chairmanship of the republican national committee is due to some doubt on the part of Mr. Quay abont Mr. Har- rison's making certain appointments. There ts little doubt, it is said, about the Presiden’ anxiety to get rid of Quay. The success of the democrats in Pennsylvania last year is charged to the determination of right-minded people, regardless of party, to repudiate methods which were regarded as disreputable. If Mr. Quay should remain at the head of the national committee it is thought there might be danger of the national party suffering from the #us- picion which surrounds the political manage- ment of the Pennsylvania boss. A HITCH AS TO AN APPOINTMENT. President Harrison and Mr. Quay have not been on very friendly terms for some time, but & few weeks ago they got a little closer together than they had been previously. The Pennsyl- vania Senator had a long conference with the President when he presented the resignation of Collector Martin of Philadelphia, and eug- ested several appointments he wanted made. ‘The instications were then that they had eome to m understanding and it was believed that in cordance with Mr. Harrison's wishes Mr. Quay would retire from the chairmanship of the national committee. Chief among the ap- pointments Mr. Quay asked for was that of udge Gilkeson, now second controller of the treasury, to succeed Judge Schotield as judge of the Court of Claims. “It was expected by Mr. Quay that there would be no trouble about ppointment. It is understood now, how- ever, that there is hitch in the matter and that the President is reluctant to make the ap- pointment. Probably if Mr. Harrison will give such recog- nition to the Pennsylvania Senator as to amount to a certificate of political character the little uncertainty about his retirement will be re- moved. GER. CLARKSON “HIS SUCCESSOR, Mr. Quay, in his interview on the subject of his probable retirement, gives color to the re- port that Gen. Clarkson will succeed bim. It is donbted whether this will be particularly gratifying to Mr. Harrison, and it may be nothing less than a reminder to the President that the powers which have been in coiitrol of the national committee are still there, and that whether Quay retires or not the chairman will not be man who wonld make many personal sacrifices for Mr. Harrison. Mr. Clarkson is not regarded as a friend of Mr. Hurrison’s — certainly not to the extent of wishing his re- nomination—and the selection of him to suc- ceed Quay when the latter rexigus will be re- garded in many quarters as indicating a gen- eral weakness of the administration, forces on the national committee. ee THE POST OFFICE SITE.

Catcaco, July 20.—Interest in the Cronin tragedy has been revived by the story from New York that Peter Dean bad mysteriously disappenred after receiving €2,000 to preserve silence in regard to incidents connected with the progress of the conspiracy and the subse- quent assassination of the doctor.

Scanlan ays thet Dean is not the man who drove the white horse. “We know that man,” said Mr. Scanlan, “and we have known him for over a year. He is not an Irish- man.
