Aa Aa! neral replied it comply with the request if he could clearly see that it ie proper for him to do so in view of the lk limitations of the powers is office. le says it appears that so far as the questions submitted are concerned he is not called on to givean opinion on any question now pending and undeter- mined, but that he is asked to review and ex- press his conclusions upon the “correctness of interpretations applications of said law” that have heretofore been made. He says that numerous and unequivocal prece- dents preclude him from rendering an opinion in such a case. The law erning such matters requires in case of opinions that the question presented must not only be one arising in the administration of a coer ‘a that rad be one which «is still pendi says a matt which has been poy eb od decided not now a “question” upon which the head of a t may require an oj from the POLITICAL GOSSIP. Encouraging Reports at Democratic Head- juarters Here—The Clerks Not Bothered. At the democratic headquarters here from three to five hundred letters are received each day from all parts of the country. The san- guine character of these letters is such as to be actually bewildering. There seems to be a per- fect ctazefor rainbow chasing. Usually the correspondence received at headquarters where the documents and tracts are sent out has a more or less gloomy churacter on account of the great anxiety of politicians as to the fate of their particular localities, but the letters are pouring in here from all quarters fuil of enthu- siasm and jubilation, declaring without reserva- tion that the democrats are going to carry states they have not thought of carrying be- fore and are going to peacoat gains where they have not thought it worth while to make aneffort, Itis ciaimed that there isa wild burst of enthusiasm for Cleveland in every statein the Union. It is an experience that no committee has ever had before and they do not know what to make of it. They say that | they do not know what to look for, but they assert that the situation is the must extraordi- nary that was ever met with in a campaign and | that it seems like a midsummer madness. DEPARTMENT OLERKS NOT APPEALED To. Theranxiety of certain persons lest the clerks in the government departments be compelled ra to be superfinous. Upto this time no Efort hae been made to get money from, the clerks, and they have been left to enjoy undis- turbed tranquility. About three months ago circulars were received by forty or fifty cler! | announcing that if they wanted to contribute | they might send the money to New York, and | that was tho end of it. No effort was made to | collect any money, and a number of clerks who have gone with contributions to the republican headquarters here have been ‘told that there ‘was no one there who wns authorized to re- ceive the money. There has been no one designated to take contrib tions if offered. ‘There has never before in the history of the country been a time when there was #0 little politics in the departments, The employes in every branch of the government service are devoting themrelvea to their work as undis- turbed and unconcerned as if there were no such thing as a campaign thought of. SENATOR HILL'S TERMS. The democratic managers are still unin- formed as to Mfr. Hill's intentions, but they have their suspicions. There is no effort at concealment of the impression that he will not lo anything for the party beyond merely cast- | ing his vote for the straight democratic ticket |unless Mr. Cleveland humbles himeclf and makes terms. It ix said that the suggestion that Hill would like the offer of the premiership in case of Cleveland's election does not quite hit the mark. What he wants, it is enid, is to be in a position to either take himself or bestow the secretaryship of the treasury. It is really doubtful whether he would care to hold office under Cleveland, but he wants Cleveland to acknowledge his power in New York und to give him such recognition during the campaign and | afterward as would enable him to dictate for New York during the administration and have control of the machine at its close. It is sai that he will not take off his coat and go into the campaign unless he gets satisfactory promises, and the chances of his getting such promises | are very slim, since the foundation of the wor- ship of Cleveland by the most devoted of his followers is the antagonism between him and Hill, For Cleveland to make any advances to Hill, it is claimed, would be for him to sacrifice the ‘support of ‘a multitude of mugwumps. However anzions he may be to placate Hill, it is held that he cannot afford to surrender to him, and he is consequently between the devil deep - THE GARBAGE CONTRACT. No Plant to Re Erected Until Congress Meete— A Supplemental Contract. Although the Commissioners have been pressed to enter into contract for the érection of a plant to destroy the garbage they have con- ia | cluded to wait until the meeting of Congress be- fore definitely deciding upon the case. It is understood that as roon as Congress convenes the Commiseioners will lay the matter before the District committees of both houses and get an expression of their views on the case. Accontract which is made supplemental to the | original contract now being operated by Mr. B. | W. Clark has been submitted to the Commis- sioners for their consideration. The second section is interesting and reads: It is further agreed that the party of the sec- ond part (Clark) to rxid contract shall receive for the removal of all garbage in incloced stecl tanks and its immediate destruction the sum of | 80 cents per ton for every ton #o removed ani stipulated in said contract No. 1618. Provided | that if the amount of garbage removed in in- closed steel tanks and immediately destroyed shall in any one month exceed 416 tone such ox- ceas shall be so removed and destroyed by the party of the second part without expense to the trict of Columbia, red_by Capt. Roseell ‘The contract was pi solely for the purpose.of having something to work upon, and it contains as near ws pomnble the claims of the Commissioners and the sani- tary company. LIZEUT. HOLLINDERGER DISSATISFIED. Lieut. Hollinberger in still dissatisfied with the garbage service. There were forty teams in the service today, he said, and he thought there should be at least six more in order to clean up the garbage. When the Grand Army comes here next | month, the licutenasrt said he thought at least one-third more carts would be necessary. The report of Lieut. Hol- linberger made today was as follows: making a total of forty. “We have had charge of the one week today.

Bruce, now recorder of deeds, who has recently returned from a visit | to Alabama and Mississippi, was asked yester- | day by Stam man as to the political outlook, and said: “The outlook from a republican point of view ia, I thiok, auspicious, most encouraging and satisfactory, and the prospects of a handsome victory by a thoroughly united party, minus never better, never filled with brighter hopes nor fortified with better cheer. “The schisms and little disaffections in party circles which were apparent just after the ad- |Journment of the Minneapolis convention are | tapidly disappearing, and will in the very near | future cease to exist and furnish material for the vaporings of a disconcerted opposition, who, by the way, are | stanced. fact that there was some littl disgruntlement after the nomination of Mr. Harrison at Minneapolis is nothing unusual, | Rarely in the annals of American politios has it occurred that complete satisfaction has beeu at- | tained in nominating « presidential candida | There must of necessity exist some little heart- | burning, some little disappointment, and why the recent republican convention should be an exception to the general custom is a matter which our democratic friends in their eagerness tocatch at the traditional straw can only account for “The signs are ominous, and, as I said before, | full of hope and encouragement. and before the | campaign shall have thoroughly opened every | vestige of the dixzruntlement #0 laboriously | harped upon will have evaporated, and wo will have an old-time victory for Harrison and Reid, | reciprocity, good government, peace, pros | perity and plenty.” | “What do yoa think of the democratic situ- ation?” the reporter usked. | “That is not e, quiet, good |cheer and encouragement with our friends— | the democrate—is “most apparent. In my Tecent trip south and west I had ample opportunity to note this fact: it is also a matter of general notoriety throughout the jcountry. The recent revolt in Alabama, which promises to be permanent and tar reaching, and | the bold and aggressive attitude of the alliance and independents in North and South Carolina and in Georgia are strikingly illustrative of this assertion. The fact is great unrest and anxiety ervade the household of our democratic rethren.” | “Is it true that the colored people are now | Foting the democratic ticket in large num- | bers?” | , ‘Well, in the recent election in Alabama they | did. The colored man, as we all know. has aj proached thet point in American citizenship | when he will not sit idly by while others of his fellow citizens are exercising the rights of | citizenship and not do anything—that is, when | he is permitted—but sit in the odtner of the | fence and watch the procession move by. No, | sir. His nature, his physiology, his aptitude | and inclination prompt him to be up and do- | ing, and when it comes to voting you mav rely | upon it he will vote for something or somebody | In the Alabama case one of the candidates was 9 democrat and the other an alliance man, and the official figures show that they were it It is e singular fact that both candidates claim to have received majority of this vote. It is | = hopefal «ign at all events, For fifteen rears the weakness of the south hes been its solidity. If now it caneliminate the race isene and its | people divide upon tariff, finance and other | Brest questions of government it will enjoy an | erm of power and prosperity which it has never before known. But the colored people are not drifting into the democratie party as against | the —— party. democrats must concede a change in the temper, in the spint and ig the organization of their’ party before y can havea respectable following among el “How do the colored people like Harrison?” asked the reporter. “No man who hasever occupied the presi- dential chair has had their confidence toa reater degree than Mr. Harrison. He has | ig all in his power to protect them in the | exercise of their legal rights and has appointed a greater number of them to office than any of | his predecessors, ‘The colored voter is emphat- ically s Harrison man.” nee LEAKS IN THE CONDUIT. | What Col. Elliott Says of the Daily Waste of Water. In « report heretofore published in Taz Stan Col. Elliott, in charge of the Washington aqueduct, called attention to the existence of several leaks in the conduit which permitted » waste of water. In his monthly report of operations just sub- mitted to Gen. Casey, Col. Elliott saya that he | has measured eleven leaks in the conduit which | permit the waste of nearly 400,000 gallons of water per day. In addition to these there were a number of leaks in the bottom of the conduit which could not be measued. Col Elliott says that on July 20 last he caused computation to be made of the amount of water supplied by the reservoir every twenty- four hours and found it to be 40, Ss ae ess, REPUBLICAN DISAGREEMENTS, A Reported Lack of Harmony in the Na- tional Committee. Private advices received here from the re- publican headquarters in New York indicate a very complicated state of affairs.
