Fair of New York, Parker AT THE WHITE HOUSE | The Crowd Not So Great Today as Heretofore, ‘ THE CABINET MEETING. The Question of the Hawatian Commission Discussed—Mr. Cleveland's Policy as to the Appointment of Consuls—To Extend the ‘Trade With Foreign Countries. President Cleveland has decided upon a line of policy to be pursved in the appointment of consuls which is expected to materially expand | the trade of the United States with foreign countries, especially with the South and Cen- tral American republics, His policy is to select men for appointment to consulships who have exceptional business | qualifications and possess sufficient trade in- | stinet to recognize an outlet for American mer- | chandise and the ability to aid in working up a | market for the product of American manufac- tories and farms, Itis well known that English consuls in foreign countries are invariably men of good | business qualifications and that it has been the | policy of Great Britain to foster the trade re- lations of her merchants through the official countries. The President exid that of course political Teasons cannot be entirely ignored in the se- | lection of consuls, but that particular stress | will be laid upon the business abilities of the | men whose names afe presented to him. CONGRESSMEN INFORMED OF THIS POLICY. President Cleveland has indicated his deter- mination of this policy to several Congressmen taiely, and especially to one New York member whose constituents are interested in the increase of the volume of foreign trade. It is understood, therefore, that for the principal commercial ports and centers of trade the selection of consuls will be based largely upon their commercial fitness, and that “political reasons” will apply in other cases, CALLERS NOT AS NUMEROUS. Callers at the White House today were not as numerous as on previous days, and those who came were given but brief audiences, as it was necessary to cut short the reception on account of a session of the cabinet at 11 o'clock. Representatives Kilgore and Bailey of Texas were among theearlycallers. They came to pre- sent the name of ©. B. Stewart of Gainesville, Texas, for appointment as judge of the Mus- | kogee (Indian Territory) court. “Will you request a federal appointment?” Mr. Kilgore was taked. ae “Not much,” he replied. “Iam coming back to Congress to ‘raise Cain.’” SPEAKER CRISP CALLED. Speaker Crisp called with J. W. Walters of Albany, Ga., who wants to be district attorney for the southern district of Georgia. Representative Washington of Tennessee gave the President a treat by introducing him toa dozen pretty Tennessee maidens from the Ward Seminary of Nashville. Mr. Washington also took occasion to file the application of T. P. Mayer of Clarksville, Tenn., who wants to be recorder of deeds of the Dis- trict of Columbia.

Morrison, with an applica- tion for appointment as consul to Kanugawa, Japan, Mr. Springer jokingly asked the President to officially promulgate the rule debarring ex- officials from reappointment. “Every one of them thinks that he is the ‘exceptional case,” waid Mr. Springer, “and that the rule does not apply to him.” Congressman-elect Baldwin of Minnesota resented the name of Harry Hawkins of Du- Fitt for governor of Alas x-Congressman McKinney of New Hamp- shire, who called, is an applicant for appoint- | ment as commissioner of pensions, and failing in that would like to be marine officer of the port of Boston.

A few minutes after 11 o'clock Secretary | Gresham arrived and with him came ex-Con- gressman Blount of Georgia, who was chair- | man of the House committee on foreign affairs of the last Congress, Mr. Blount was summoned to Washington by telegraph and arrived thismorning. Mr. Blount was shown into Private Secretary Thurber's room while Secretary Gresham joined his.col- leagues who were with the President. Ina lite while Mr. Blount was sent for and pro- ceeded to the cabinet room, where he remained for some time. It is said that Mr. Blount will be the head of acommission which is to be sent immediately to Hawaii and that his presence in Washington is for the purpose of receiving instructions. It is rumored that when Mr. Blount returns from this mission he will receive a foreign ap- pointment, ‘The President and Private Secretary Thurber have formulated the usual set of rules for the vernment of the official portion of the White louse. ‘Their text is as follows: EXECUTIVE MANSION RULES. The cabinet will meet Tuesdays and Fridays ‘at 11 o'clock a.m. Mondays will be reserved by the President | for the transaction of public business requiring his uninterrupted attention. | _ The President will receive Senators and Rep- | Tesentatives in Congress from 10 to 12 o'clock on other days, except cabinet days, when he will receive from 10 to 11 o'clock.

The session of the cabinet today continued until 1 o'clock and was devoted mainly to the | Teprosentatives of the government to foreign | |THE PRESIDENT AND THE SENATE, | One of the Elements Affecting the Forma- | tion of the New Committees. | Nominally the trouble! over the formation | | of the committ@ of the Senate grows out of the | preponderance of southern men ravking on | committees and having precedence on | account of length of service, The argument bas been, pressed very carnestly that it would not/do for the southern men to take everything, leaving the northern and eastern men on the outside. But under, this lies the more important question of pol- icy. Mr, Cleveland is interested in this uestion as mcch as any man alive. He wants the party, it is said, to break through | the sectional lines’ and to be strongly re sented from every section of the country, but under this, southern Senators think ‘they |see a desire on the part of Mr. Cleve- jland to give the frieuds of his policy laces that will give them strong influence. | | The fact is that the democratic Senators and | the President are still suspicious of each other; thev have not been able to get close enongh to- gether to come to a perfect understanding, and the Senators are still skirmishing about for, | both patronage and policy. | Tt may be that both the Senate and House | will be more friendly to Mr. Cleveland's money policy when they get together for the regular | sossion, but the Senators do not want to show any ign of weakening at this time, and. the committee on finance will be kept in the hands | of the silver men, if for no other reason, to give the Senate a weapon of defense or coercion’ | | One of the comic features of the situation is | the attempt on the part of some of the politi- | cians to bear themselves with dignity and ind pendence in their engerness for patronage. Some | of the leaders who are anxious to preserve their | own power and to make Mr. Cleveland come to | them rather than they goto him, have been try- ing to impress it upon their colleagues that they place themselyes at a disadvantage in the contention overparty policy when they assume the attitud suppliants tronage, and that they should therefore let r. Cleveland seek their advice as to appoint- ments and not force recommendations upon him with importunate p They urge that when Mr. Cle | bas appointments to make from certain localities he must seek advice, and that the should wait for that time, | York people are following out The this ea |up to date, having the udvautage of the | |support of a strong organization, and they are in a different position’ from that occupied by others. They can preserve | this attitude until they get the pointer as to | Mr. Cleveland's intentions which will come with | the appointment of the collector at the port of | New York. ‘The Pennsylvania delegation have come toa | pretty good understanding among themselves | and feeling that the situation with them is too | serious to admit of their risking any mistekes, | have assumed the waiting policy, baving armed themselves against Harrity as well as they can. But this attitude does not appear to be con- venient one for any of the other delegations to assume. It is all very well in theory, but when there is no organization and each member and each Senator feels that perhaps his colleague is se- cretly trying to get bead of him, his’ anxiety gets the best of his" dignity, and all feeling the same way, they all join belter-skelter in the rash for . ‘The result of this is very apt to be in the end that Mr. Cleveland will dominate in Congress as well as in the executive, though not without a very bitter fight. soa THE HAWATIAN COMMISSION. Ex-Representative Blount and Com. Brown to Prob: It is announced today on excellent authority that President Cleveland has selected ex-Kepre- sentative Blount of Georgia, Gen. Schofield, U.8.A.,and Commodore Brown, U. 8. N., as the commission to visit Hawaii and round its people on the question of annexation. Com- | modore Brown is the only one of the three in regard to whom there is any doubt. It ie possible that Capt. Howison, now at Sen Fran- | cisco, may be selected instead of Commodore | Brown as the naval representative on the com- mission. Mr, Blount is specially suited for thisservice by reason of his entire familiarity with the question and the experience gained di ing his service as chairman of the House commit- | tee on foreign relations. Gen. Schofield made 8 visit to Hawaii several years ago on a similar mission. Great mystery is displayed in regard to this matter and it is impossible to obtain in- formation from official sources, The question was undonbtedly discussed at today's cabinet meeting and it is understood | that the character of Minister Stevens’ instruc- | tions was agreed upon. These instructions will be forwarded to Honolulu by the next steamer sailing from San Francisco, It is not yet settled who will succeed Mr. Stevens. ‘The time of the change is also undetermined us yet. asi Ga ontario LIQUOR CASES NOLLE PROSSED.
