Washington D. 0., March 10?
1893.—President Cleveland has
not changed his habits since he
was in the \\ hite House before,
Everv morning this week he *lias
been at his desk hard a work by 7
o’clock, and midnight has found
him still at that desk nearly every
night. It is well that he has such
industrious habits, as up to the
present time he has been given
but little time to work between
the hours of 10 a. m. and 0 p. m.,
owing to his numerious callers.
The setni-olli ial announcement
that President Cleveland wo" Id
not remove until the end of their
terms, except lor causes other
that political, any of what are
known as four-year officials, that
is, officials commissioned fora
term of four years, resulted in
lessening in a small degree the
pressure for office, but there is
still enough, and to speak, as may
be seen and heard on all sides.
Speaking of office seekers, the
number of them now in J* ashing
ton has been greatly exaggerated
by the newspapers, I have no
means of knowing—it is more
than doubtful whether any one
h a? —whether the statement re¬
peatedly made that there are
more applications for office tnan
ever before is true ornot, but I
do know, as do the Washington
hotel keepers to theirsorrow,that
the number of men siekingoffices
in person is today mich smaller
than it was months a’ter the in¬
auguration of Harison. It is
probably true that tnny of the
thousands of demounts who came
to the inauguration aid remained
Until the first of this week were
office seekers, but if o they filed
their papers an l welt back home
after paying their rdpects to the
President and his ibinet, and
our hotels are not much more
crowded at this time than is os
ual at this season, kiul at none
of them can be fount the seeth
ing, loud-talking cpwds which
were their most prominent ieat
u res until midsummer following
Harrison’s inauguration. It is
just as well to tell th- T uth about
these things. 1 here are
