The Placing of Mr. Robert A. Maxwell in the Post Office Department—Others Who ‘Were Selected for Office, With Sketches of ‘Their Career. The President today sent the following nom- inations to the Senate: Josiah Quincy of Massachusetts to be assist- ant secretary of state. Robert A. Maxwell of New York to be fourth assistant postmaster general. Isaac P. Gray of Indiana to be envoy extra- ordinary and minister plenipotentiary of the United States to Memeo. Patrick A. Collins of Massachusetts to be con- sul general of the United States at London. James H. Oakley of Illinois to be an assistant surgeon in the marine hospital service. Lieut. (junior grade) Herbert O. Dunn to be a licutenant; Lieut. (junior grade) Arthur W. Dod to be a lieutenant; Ensign Joseph Beale to bea lieutenant, junior grade; Ensign Edward F. Leiper to be « lieutenant, junior grade; Fred Brown Busey of Kentucky and Edward Mansfield Shipp of Virginia, to be assistant surgeons in the navy; F. P. Gayle of New Mexico to be receiver of public moneys at Rose~ well, N. M. Mr. Robert A. Maxwell. It did not take long for the news of the nom- ination of Mr. Robert A. Maxwell to be fourth assistant postmaster general to reach the Post Office Department thie morning. It was not unexpected, as the renders of TuE Sra are aware. This is the great patronage office of the administration, and the selection of the man to fill the place has more than usual significance from a political standpoint. Perhaps Gen. Stevenson, the Vice President, was more widely known onaccount of his administration of the patronage of the post offices throughout the country than from anyone cause. At that time the post offices were under the first assist- ant's office, but now all that is changed, and all the ‘post offices of the country, both of the presidential classes and the fourth class, are under the fourth assistant. The patronage of the place is great, and it was re- marked by the politicians today that the ap- pointment of Mr. Maxwell meant that Mr. Hill and his friends in New York state would not have much show when the distribution of the post offices began, and it is probable that there will not be a great deal of delay in this reepect. Mr. Maxwell isa resident of Batavia, N. ¥., and a man of means, having amassed consider- able money asa malster, from which business he retired some years ago. For twenty years he has been prominent in the politics of New York and is recognized as a democrat of the old school. ‘Mr. Maxwell was one of the leading spirits in the anti-snapper convention aud bas long been the warm personal friend of Mr. Cleve- land and Postmaster General Bissell. About @ year ago Mr. Maxwell was removed from the office of state insurance commissioner by Gov. Flower, and at the time it was charged that hi removal was due to Mr. Maxwell's friendliness for Mr. Cleveland. ‘The post he will fill will be mmilar to that formerly occupied by Vice Presi- dent Stevenson and now to be vacated by Mr. E. G. Rathbone of Ohio. it Josinh Quincy. Josiah Quincy is one of the politicians of the younger school who has managed to win the confidence and esteem of President Cleveland by energetic and well-directed efforts in the management of delicate questions of party pol- icy. He is about thirty-four years of age and enjoys the distinction of being the last of the histeric Quincy family of Massachusetts. He is in comfortable circumstances and is a lawyer by profession, but has devoted most of bis time to the ‘pursuit of politics, for which he has shown a peculiar aptitude. ' For some years he has been a prominent figure in Massachusetts state politics, was for three years a member of the legislature and is ‘aid to have been ambitious to secure the democratic nomination for the governorship. He chairman of the democratic state committee, a member of the national committee and during ee | and put the ticket with him for second piace, This ticket was defeated v one headed yy Albert G. Porter, late minister to Italy. Four years later Mr. Gray was nominated f governor by the democrats and was elected and would have been renominated for a second term but for the fact that the consti- tution of Indiana prohibited a governor from any filling two terms in succession. During the late cam Mr. Gray was a candidate for the residency and had the delegation of his state Echind ‘him, but be withdrew and did. all b could to effect the nomination of Mr. Cleveland. relat; For Vice President he stood second in the bal- | to the assiet loting. Gov. Gray has always enjoved the reputation of being an excellent politician and | of a good lawyer. SECRETARY GRESNAM'S VISITORS, Representatives of Foreign Governments Call to Pay Their Respect: Secretary Gresham had another b the State Department today. His mail was heavy and his visitors wore numerous aud in one or two instances importunate. There are many diplomatic and consular appointments to be made, and his patriotic visitors are, of course, entirely unselfish in their sng- gestions on the subject. Their “suggestions” were invariably accompanied, however, by good, strong democratic certificates of the party services and superior mental attributes of the individuals mentioned. These papers fol- lowed the usual routine. They were “filed, and it is safe to say that the majority of jy them, unless withdrawn in the meantime, will remain in that harmless condition until they succumb to the ravages of time. They will not be at all lonesome, however, for they will have the company of similar dosument® that have been placed “‘on file” since the early days of the republic. DIPLOMATIC DAY. The majority of Secretary Gresham's visit- ors today, however, were not after office.
