CONGRESSMEN WHOSE TIME I8 TAKEN UP IN GET- TING OFFICES—SOME OF THOSE WHO SAW THE PRESIDENT TODAY—THE APPOINTMENT OF & PUBLIC PRINTER NOT YET CONSIDERED. There are those among the daily callers at the White House who would not be surprised to witness a radical change in the next year or two in the method of distributing the federal patronage. Men who have talked with the President recently and have per- ceived the drift of opinion in cer- tain political channels say there is a rising tide of sentiment favorable to a change which is swelling in volume and bids fair to sweep away existing custom to leave room for the growth of a better s: Briefly stated the change would mean the curtailment if not the complete abolishment of active and persistent efforts by Congressmen in the distribution of patronage. This could be accomplished, it ix argued, by an agreement between the President and his cabinet officers that they would not recognize Congressmen to recommend or to solicit aj pointments, but would ask the opinion of ti Congressmen , at such time as the heads of de- partments should see fit, upon candidates whose applications bad been placed on file in the departments. WHY A CHANGE IS DESIRABLE. ‘The necessity for a change in the present system is said to lie in the fact that of late years the work of Congress as a legislative body is seriously interfered with by the absence of members from the daily sessions, necessitated by the attention which they must give to the task of pressing their constituents’ demands for patronage in the various departments. An- other reason put forward for the change is the allegation that in many states eligibility for election to Congress has come to be gauged by a man's ability to get appointments for his constituents and to ‘way power with the administration. It is alleged that the larger part of the average Con- gressman’s daily “legislative” duties consists in making the rounds of the departments in be- half of his constituents, his seat in the legisla~ tive body, to which he was elected, remaining empty the meanwhile. Any day in the week during the sessions of Congress and in the recess it is a common sight to see dignified and white-baired Senators and grave Representatives, charged with the duties of making laws and dealing with great legisiative questions of vital importance to the nation, abandoning their dutics and trudging through the depart- ments, cooling their heels in secretaries’ ante rooms, intent upon pressing the claims for office of persistent constituents, CONSIDERED BY THE PRESIDENT. It is said that Mr. Cleveland bas been keenly impre-sed with this situation, which has been brought vividly to his attention during the past two months, and that in such leisure mo- ments as he has been permitted to enjoy he has taken it under serious consideration. Many of the Congressmen themselves, it is said, would welcome a change in the system. They feel that they are held responsible for every appointment, and while realizing that they do not and ought not to controlevery ont they are made to suffer for that —non- control by their disappointed constituents. Some of the Congressmen who are interested in legislative matters and who would like to devote their attention to the p for which they were elected—or thought were—re- sent the necessity of becoming mere leggers after offices. PROMIXEST CALLERS. ‘The President had another light day today. The most interesting feature of it was the presence at the White Honse of Chairman Harrity, who enjoved an hour's interview with the Prendent. He was accompanied by As- sistant Secretary Quincy, who isalso a member of the national committee. Mr. Harrity said be came to see the President by appointment, but not to taik about Pennsylvania patronage. | Na- tional Committeeman Sewall of Maine was also scailer at the White House during the stay of gies Stone of Kent called ‘Congressman to say good-bye, as he returns to his old Kentucky home todas. Many of the Congressmen are leaving Washington, dropping out one by one, and the attendance at the House grows thinner day by day. The President entertained Mr. Carl Schurz at dinner last night. Ex-Gov. Campbell, the idol of the Ohio de- mocracy, was at the White House ‘end had a talk with the President. it is thought that he left before dinner time. TRE PUBLIC PRINTER. The term of office of Public Printer Palmer expires next Saturday. Congressman Richard- son of Tennessee asked the Prosident today if Mr. Palmer's successor is under consideration. The President replied he had not yet taken up the case and did not know when he would. It is said that Mr. 8. F. Webb of Arizona be appointed collector of customs at Nogales, Ariz. eee eaten WARSHIPS AT ANNAPOLIS. The Russian Fleet and Other Foreign Crais- ers Expected jane. The Navy Department is informed that the admiral in command of the Russisn fleet at New York proposes to take all his ships to An- napolis on the occasion of the commencement exercises at the Naval Academy. The fleet will arrive at Annapolis on the 27th instant, and will remain there several days, Two or three American cruisers will accompany the Russian fleet around from New York, but the selection bas not yet been made. It’ will thus be seen that the people of this vicmity are not to be altogether deprived of the pleasure of a close inspection of at least one section of the foreign contingent at the recent uaval review. THE VESSELS IN THE FLEET. The Russian vessels now at New York that will visit Annapolis are the Dimitri Donskei, General Admiral and the Rynda, and it is pro- posed to increase this fleet at Annapolis by the addition of the 9,000-ton battle ship Emperor Nicholas, the ‘armored cruiser Ad- miral Nachimotf aud Pamiate Asova. ‘These three ships were intended for service in the uaval review, but were frozen in the Baltic at the time. They have since been released and ordered to visit this country, It is expected that they will reach here in time to_partici- pate in the graduating exercises at the Naval Academy. OTHER FOREIGN SHIPS EXPECTED. Other vessels that will probably visit Annap- olis at the same time are the Italian fleet and the Argentine cruiser Neuvo de Julio. These | include about all of the foreign ships that wall remain at New York more than a few days longer. ———__e—_____ Secretary Smith Objects, Secretary Hoke Smith has received a com- munication from the Secretary of War trans- mitting the recommendation of Gen. Schofield, in which he concurs, that Fort Duchesae, Uteh territory, be abandoned in order that the troops stationed there may be withdrawn and with those at other remote stations concentrated at the new posts constructed for them, In his re- y the Secretary strongly objects to the pro- ed abandonment and says that questions of Importance are pending in his department con- cerning these Indians which would teem to favor the continuance rather than the abaudon- meut of Fort Duchesne as a military post, at least for the present. ‘These interests, he say, might be seriously jeopardized by withdrawing the garrison at Fort Duchesne. — Ses canaietaeend Interior Department Appointments, Charles H¥Martin of Illinois bas been ap- pointed law examiner in the mineral division of the general lund office, vice Chas, T.

TRE LOUISVILLE CONVENTION, Exciting Discussion Caused by a Resolution Denouncing Southern Outrages. Lovrsvinie, May 11.—Tbe remarkable mani fexto iseued yesterday to the republican league of the United States by Chairman Clarkson, under the guise of an annual address, was the chief topic of discussion among the delegates ax they assembled in Macanley"s Theater this morning preparatory to the opening of the second day's session of the national con- vention, To the delegates who are opposed to any tinkering with the platform as adopted at Min- neapolis, and which must remain the only gow pel of the party until the eve of another residential campaign, the utterances of the Recder of the young republicans were anything but palatable. No more radical declaration of principles, they contended, could have gone out from an out-and-out alliance convention. It was a bodily adoption of third yarty ixsues and timber, which, at the present time at least, wos premature and ill-advised and would give aid and comfort to the guerilia enemy that did its share in the bushes toward the defeat of November. These were the opinions of a good many of the delegates, and eapecially thowe bailing trom the east, Others there were. however, that Clarkson for his independent akties oe sisted that he had sounded the kernote of the music to which the party would hereafter have to keep step if it ever hoped to regain control of national affairs.
