The feeling among them is anything to beat Harri- son, and most of them are still of the opinion that some combination will be fected which will leave the President in the rear ranks. The antis,however,at this end of the Ine, as a rule, are generally stanch in the belief that the question is one which will not | bear discussion. LET'S TALK ABOUT THE PLATFORM. “Don't ask me anything about the situation,” eaid one Blaine man; “let's talk about the plat- form. Republicans here are getting « little anxious as to the action of the convention on the silver question. The plank on this subject must be a conservative one or tremendous harm will follow to the party.” Today for the first ¢ime fortunately the ques- tion of who will be the probable viee presidential candidate in ease of Harrison's nomination haa Generally the eentiment A Story That He Has Written a Letter for Use if Necessary. Asstory which comes from Troy, N. Y., from sources which are alloged to be reliabl that Senator, David B. Hill has written a letter authorizing the withdrawal of his name from all further consideration by the democracy, te and national, whenever, in the opinion and discretion of Richard Croker, Hugh Me- Laughlin and Edward Murphy, jr.,and W. F. Sheehan, such a step should be taken. ‘The Philadelphia Times says: “The lotter has not been given out for publication and Senator Hill may yoasibly continue to pose as a candi- date, but the fact remains that the letter has ticket will be the fact. Harrison and Morton is said to be the plan. _ _ JUSTICE HARLAN SUGGESTED. During the past day or so several names not as yet in the public mouth have been men- | tioned as possibilities on either the top or bottom of the presidential ticket. Ono of these names—it received more than» little attertion—is that of Associate Jus- tice Harlan of the United States Su- oar Court.

THE CHAUGES AGAINST MR, WANAMAKER. has it | THE ROOK CREEK PARE. Secretary Foster Presents Mis Answer Why the Money Has Not Been Paid. This morning in the Court in General ‘Term the hearing in the case of the petition of the Rock Creek Park commissioners fore man- damus upon the Secretary of the Treasury to | compel him to into the regtstry of the | court the amounts awarded the land owners was resumed, Chief Justice Bingham, Justice Hagner and Justice James occupying the bench. | Assistant Attorney General Maury appeared for the Secretary and read the answer of that officer to the rule. It wae as follows “The answer of Charles Foster, Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, to the rule | on him laid by the honorable court to eho | cause why he should not be ordered by this court to pay forthwith into ite registry or to | Pay to the order of the said commission the | sum of $897,275.85, the raid sum being the sum heretofore ordered by this court to be paid into the registry of the eaid commiscion.” “This t, that the tion Aled agtinet ita oy “the comand ap | pointed to select the land for Rock Creek Park, | under the act of Congress of September 27. | 1890, does not present a case within the special ministerial powers conferred on this court by the said act of Congress, and protesting further- more, that the said atin oe mun- | damus and not cognizable as an original application by this court sitting | in General Term, nevertheless, and without aiving the jurisdictional exceptions aforesaid for answer to the said petition, saith that true it is, as stated in the raid poticiou, that the said requisitions have not been paid. but that re- | Spondent denies that the fact that they, nor | elther of them, have been paid, affords ground for subjecting this respondent’ to the compul- sion of a mandamns, which, respondent ia ad- vised, is a process ‘intended to be directed against public officers who set the law at defiance and produce a failure of government. “And the ndent further answering «nith that, as Secretary of the Treasury, he is charged with delicate and important trusts, and cannot consent to be subjected to judicial’ orders con- | | trolling his discharge of duty, and without | | proof or averment that he has refused to pay | |the said requisition, or that he is acting in bad falth. And this respondent avers that in good faith and with a view ouly to thy public interosts and to a proper comity toward co-ordinate branch of the government, ax hereinafter stated, he has delayed action, and | for no other reason whatever. THE COURT HAS NO POWER, And protesting that this honorable court has no power under the case made in the said peti- tion and under the Constitution and laws of the United States to compel discovery of and review the reasons and considerations by which the respondent has been influenced in with- holding payment of the said requisitions up to this time, this respondent, nevertheless, further anewering, saith that on January 12) 1892, a member imtroduced @ bill in the House of Representatives (H.R. 2777), en- titled “A bill to repeal an act authorizing the establishing of a park in che District of Colum- via,” the same was thereupon erred to the committee on the al trict of Columbia (Congressional Rec- |ord, Fifty-xecond Congress, first session, | p. 278); and this respondent saith that on the same day Mr. Dockery introduced a preamble and resolution with reference to the snid Rock Creek Park, which was referred to the com- mittee on appropriations, and that the object of the said preamble and ‘resolution was to in- stitute an investigation of various mutters connected with the said park, as will more fully appear by reference to a copy of the said preamble and resolution herewith fled and exhibited and marked respondent’ exhibit A.

The request, be said, was in the nature of a demurrer, as it admitted all the facts pleaded. Mr. Perry then addressed the court on the | motion, explaining that he was at # los to |know just what points the Secretary relied | upon. “The President's approval of the values showed the determination of the government to take the tracis in question, and that action j of the executive vested in cach property owner la. ‘right of action for. the value of his property taken.
