THE SANDHILL PELICANS A WINDY WAR OF WORDS, Spocial Dispatch to Tun Bun WasHiNaToN, Moy Secretary Tellor iuformed & reprceentative of the Assoclated Prees this evening that he does not intend to msks any formal roply to Sonator Hill's letter, and adds that although he fouud it was [ull of errors and misrepresenta- tlons, he does not purpose takiog any public notico of any portion of it; that it is local or personal In its char— acter, and he dld not think the pub llc had any interes® in thcse matiers, He sald, however, as to the Yellow- stone Park lease, he took the advice of his asslstant, Joslyn, and of MoCammon, law officer of the de- partment, and that the lease was in thelr opinion in accordance with the law, Teller went on to say: ‘‘It does not, ar Senator Hill assames, give the control of the park to the lessee. Any number of leases may be made in every respect as advantageous to the lessoes as this one, No exoclusive privilege 1s given and no advantage is given In sites. The lease covers sites for a hotel and stage stations, ageregating ten acres. Others may, if they desire, have the same. As to the ralings of the department in favor of corpora. tions in the matter ef land grants Hill made only a general charge con- cerning & matter which he could know no more of than the general publio. The rulings have all been made to conform to the decisions of the supreme court and the opirftons of the attorney general concerning the duty of the executive departments of the government In that respect Seo: retary Teller furthermore remarked that he Is not authorized to leglalate, but simply to admiulster the laws, whether such laws are In accordance with his views or not, and that Seua tor Hill might have ascertalned what are his views on this subjec: from the last annual report of the depariment of the interlor. RENATOR HILL loft Washington this evening for Col- orado. Before his departure he was asked if he had anything farther to say at present with reference to his controversy with the secretary of the interior, He replled, ‘‘Every state- moent contalned in my letter is strictly true. Teller will naturally seek to break Its force by a general denial, but upon some polnts he will have to face evidence. Efforts to make a diversion by an indirect charge (on the alleged authorlty of ‘‘frlends of Secretary Teller”) that I bought my seat In the senate is unworthy of notice and has no foundatlon to set upon, If it had been so it would have been used agalnst me long ago. The truth s nelther Senator Callcott nor any responsible person has pressed me to with such charges. The nearest approach to 1c was contalned In a card from Ex-Senator Chaffee, in which he sald that my election had, according to my own statements, cost me $28,000. This statement was so' vague that I never deemed It worthy of notice, since Chaffee might have referred tu legitimate contributions made by me tomy party in the state. Whatever charges I have made against Teller, have been made over my owu signa tare. If he will adopt a like course and be responsible for the statements that I furnished, used or caused to be used money in any corrupt orillegit- imate manner connected with my elec tlon to the senate, I will afford him at the earllest possible dey an opportu- nity to prove the charge.” THE REFORMATION. Special Dispatch to Tus Bax 1HE RULES AND REGULATIONS. WasHINGTON, May 2.—-A special meeting of the cablnet was held to- day to conslder the civil service regu- lations now awalting the president's sction. All members were preseut except the attorney geueral, The ses- slon lasted two and a half hours and the regulations as presented by the clvil service commisslon were agreed to withont substantial change, al though it was deemed advisable to change the mode of expression of cer- taln rules, There was one question which the cabinet found It difficult to declde. The custom which {s now observed In making appointments in several executive departments and which In the treasury has the foroe of law, is to distiibute them among the states and terrltories upon the basls of population, 1t is a question whether strict ad- herence to this rule would not in many cases hamper the administra- tlon of elvil service, and the majority of the members of the cablne are in- oline to the view that appolntments under the new clvil service rules should be made strictly upon merit as provides that appolntments shall be ritorles in p J| ‘= to the popula- tlon, as fw v &7, ot this clause comes w. gy, = on: der the common hew. 1 which are to be carrled out .. i a8 good administration of the law . .11 permit, he did not think it would rove a source of much difficulty. o sald, farther, that It shonld be borne in mind that the law had noth ing to say with regard to the propor- tion in which the several states and territories are represented ln appolnt- ments already made, and that thke present representation of states and territorles would not be taken Into conslderation in determining fature appoinvments, as the law refers solely to appolntmenta hereafter to be made, EXPLANATORY FIGURES. The Debt Statement for A pril. Special Dispatch to Tun Brx, WasaiNatoN, May 2.—The clerk of the ways and means committee fur- nishes the followlog explanation of the fiscal operations of the treasury for Aprll: The debt statement shows less than $3 000,000 reduction, which is 1n marked contrast with the reduc- tlon made in April, 1882, when the public debt was decreased over $14,- 000,000. The comparatively unfav- orable shgwing for the month just closed is due to the fact that the re- celpts compared with the same month last year foll off abeut $12,000,000, while the expenditares for last month exceoded those for Aprll, 1882, by over $5,000 000. The large amount which haa been disburased for pensions is accountable for the increase. For the firat time for many months the exponditures have excoeded the re- ceipts, the excoss of oxpendituros be- ing about $400,000. The available cash balance is, in round numbers, $135,000,000, against $140,000,000 April 1, a decrease of $5,000,000. The bonded debt shows a decrease for the month of about $5,000,000, while the debt on which interest has ceased shows an ncrease of nearly $1,500,- €00. 'The amount of 34s outstanding is $46,000,000. The treasurer’s statement of liabilitles and assets shows important changes. In gold ocoin and gold bullion there is a de- orease, since April, of $3,000,000 and an increase of outstanding gold certl- ficates of about $5,000,000, the amount of these certificates, now out- standing, being $48,398,200. The gold coin and gold bullion, now held by the treasury, amounts to nearly $188,000,000 against which there are outstanding, in certificates, about $48,000,000. The standard silver dollars on hand now number 106,366,348, agairs: which tLere are oatatanding about 72,000,000 in certificates, an increase for the month of $3,000,000 of the silver pleces and of $1,000,000 in outstand- ing certiticates, The recelpts for the month, compared with April, 1882, show a falling off $8,000,000, of which nearly $5,000,000 were in customs receipts and $2,300,000 In internal revenue, CAPITOL NOTES.

LonpoN, Mayp 2. —The I'mes pub. lishes a spocial from Berlin whioh un- dertakes to explain the misunder- standing, or misrepresentation on the part of the North German Gezette in respect to the republication in a New York paper of Minister Sargent's re- port to Secretary Frellnghuysen upon the pork question, The polnt of the specie! correspondent’s explanation is, that what was published day before yosterday by the North German Ga- zotte was In reality the report of Sar- gent to «he state department. It was rinted In order to show that the orth German (sazette's late personal attack, which Sargent would have been justly entitled to con- slder & gross infringement of a newspaper upon his privileges as sjforelgn ambassador was based upon the Incorrect translation by the New York Handel's Zeltung, of Sargent's report. The North German Gazotte, in reproducing the roport, prefaces it by a paragraph, which The Times cor- respondent characteriz:s as a querk and traneparent’ attempt upon the part of the management to exouse thelr unwarrantable attack. This is the only excuse vouchsafed by the Berlin papers, and it is the goneral opinton here that, while the apology {s humble enough, it may be regarded nevertheless’ as entirely inadequate, slnce it convicts The North German Gazette of gross misrepresentation of the truth.
