WASHINGTON LETTER. (From our Regular Correspondent.) Washington, D. C.,Nov, 22nd 1889. Congressional visitors to the executive Mansiom complain bitterly of the diffi culty of seeing the President. They say that he has no time to give anyone but his cabinet officers. As these gentlemen have the entree at all hours, it would seem unjust that they monopolize two thours given to other visitors. A linos every morning the carriages of two or three cabinet officers can be seen around the White House from 10 to 12 o’clock. A Congressman who cal's with a constit uent and is turned away day after day naturally feels mortified. It humbles him and injures his strength at home. The new Senators will begin their leg islative careers by asking such Senators as have seen the shortest service to com bine fur a re org nization of the force of Senate etni 1 >yees. The ci'il service system has so retricted the nu m ber of officers available for regarding followers that a new deal is demanded. Old Senators, like Edmunds, Allison, Sherman and Hear have gobbled up all the offices in sigi’t and their followers have held them for a score of years. Senatorial courtesies in t his matter as in othbrs, is bound to receive a rud shock. The present officers of the Sen ate are greatly exercised over the rumor. The fight for the exposition of 1892 was definitely opened yesterday by the ar rival of Colonel Jones and Govenor Francis, of Missouri, the missionaries who are to give their reasons for their faith in the merit of St. Louis. The r headquarters are at Williard’s. The Chicago representatives have bee ' here for some time. The interests of the Windy City before Congress will Vie look ed after by ex-First Assistant Postmaster General Allen E. Stevenson. The exec utive committee ot the Washington promoters n et last night, but no definite action was taken. It is intended to give a dinner to the delegates to the Pan American Congress early in December, probably about the 10th, as on that date the govenors of the States interested in the Philadelphia centenary will all be in Washington. The finance committee of the National Board of Promotion of the Three Amer icas exposition has issued a circular urg ing all the citizens of the District of Co lumbia to sign a memorial to Congress asking that Washington be selected as the site for the World’s Fair in 1892. The memorial proposes the issuance of $15,000,000 of District of Columbia bonds as a guarantee fund for the expenses of the exposition in case Congress should think it necessary. The attempt of Delegate Hall, of England, and his associates to run the Maritime Conference to suit themselves was defeated yesterday by the combina - tion of the United States and South American delegates. The “Board at Whitehall,” as it is called, opposed the congress from the first and only joined in irs deliberations by order of the gov ernment. The Board is the antiquated barnacle that lias for generations fixed marine regulations in Great Britain. When the conference was first proposed this organization felt shocked and griev ed that any body of men on the face of the earth should have to supersede its authority. They did finally consent to enter the conference for the discussion of one subject only, viz; the “rules of the road.” These settled they would re fuse further participation in the deliber ations. By the circumlocution office this state of offairs reached the ears of •Lord Salisbury, who immediately order ed that the English delegates should participate in the entire conference. This order was imperative, but in revenge Hall et al have engaged passage for home for Decetnbei 11, and endeavor by every possible means to rush through the business that must be completed be fore they leave. Business was rush* d through last week in indecent haste without consideration or discussion. Schley. Mr. H. H. Mott says, his hogs tire now eating the second crop of peanuts, or ground peas, from the same vines. The first crop came on in August and the hogs were turned in. They eat off all the peas, and were taken out, leaving the vines growing by the tap root. A new crop of runners soon shot out front the vines and produced another good crop of peanuts. He says he believes the second would have been the best crop if he had thrown fresh dirt around the vines. i ofc i ►* WHAT A FORTUNE Isa good healthy, pearly skin.
