The Post Office Department yielded a genuine sensation today, It was all due to the order issued by the Postmaster General to the chief of the appointment division of the fourth assistant’s office directing him to give out no information in regard to the appoint- ments of postmasters of the fourth class, Heretofore complete lists of the changes made daily have been furnished to the public, or what is the same thing, the press, and the sudden change in what bas been the custom for years naturally excited remark. It was learned on inquiry that the order bad been issued because of misstatements and exacgera- tions that it was alleged had been made in the newspapers relative to the changes. In fact it was suid that the President was begin- ning to dislike seeing so much in the public prints relative to “cutting off bands,” “the guillotine” and other terms more or less sportive that bave been used to characterize the work of Mr. Maxwell, the fourth assistant. So it was resolved to,cut off the source of in- formation. Later in tne day, however, Mr. Bissell decided not to apply the order to the list of appointments made today, and so these were given out. It is probable that this quasi suspension of the order will be continued and that the list will be given out as usual. —-e= THE FLEET AT ANNAPOLIS, ‘What Secretary Herbert Says in Regard to the Subject. Secretary Herbert is disposed to accommo- date the people who desire to have some of the war ships in the naval review visit Annapolis, He told a Stam reporter today that he had not yet reached a conclusion in the matter, and naturally could not do #0 until he had con- conferred with Admiral Gherardi as to what ships would be available for the purpose after the review. He added that so far as the foreign vessels are concerned he certainly could say nothing in advance of their arrival. He said be would like to comply with the request of the —_ committee from Baltimore, Annapolis and Washington which recently waited upon bim in the interests of the people of Maryiand, Virginia, Wert Virginia, Pennsylvania and’ the District of Columbia, and Would arrange to have the ships | visit Annapolis Koads early in May if it could possibly be accompliched. But there were so many things to be considered in that counec- tion before anv canclusion couid be reached that it is impossible now to give any definite in- formation on the subject. ‘As he said to the committee, there were im- perative reasons why our own vessels should not remain at home any longer than was abso- lutely necessary, as there was great necd of their services on the Pacific, South Atlantic and European stations. It was therefore likely that the present fieet in home waters would be reduced to as few as six vessels soon after the conclusion of the review. available for a cruise to Annapolis, but it was too early now to promise that they would go As for the foreign vessels their enzagements with the government ended with the review, and their future movements depended alto- the orders of their own govern- will be in- gether 9 ments. officers of these shi vited to visit Chicago, May 1. the world’s fair.
