Still Another t lass. There Is another class of caller* al the Whit* House, who Imagine that the Pres ident alone is interested in redressing the! , real or fancied grievances This class |s composed largely of woman, who eek government employment for themselves or their relatives. Some of them are etth er widows, wives, sisters, daughters, or personal friends of men to whom the Re publican party, either In the past or pres ent. Is alleged to be personally indebted. It requires constderalde tact and delicate manipulation on the pert of the White House employes to shield the President from the embarrass ment. and Inconvenience of being obliged to listen to the heartrending details of why this woman should be provided for by the government, or why she shoukl not receive e promotion, or why some member of her family should not prompt ly partake of the fruit of Republican vic tory. Of course some of these appeals are sufficiently strong and meritorious ae to Justify serious consideration, and them are other methods of securing due recog nition without a personal Interview with the Preeldent. Thu* far the office-seekers have been able to derive but little encouragement from their visitations lo the Whits House They sre Informed that thera It but lit tle or no patronage outelde of the civil eervlce at the disposal of ihe President, and In view of the overwhelming approval by tha country of the present organisation of ihe administration, but few change* •re contemplated in the Immediate future These etaiemeot* might discontent and discourage the inexperienced offleeseektr. but ihe chronic applicants for political preferment continue to knock boldly and continuously at the presidential door.

Another Impreetive indication that the national legislature Is about to resume business at the oil stand Is the sudden and mysterious appearance In Washing ton of many well-known characters who apparently have no visible meins of tup liort.

Their faces are as familiar to the veteran congressman end public official as the portrait of George Washington on a two-eent postage •tamp. They haunt the executive depart ments and blockade the corridors of the capllol May after day and at the close of the seseton. their personal Interests do not seem to have been materially ad vanced. a* a rule they are a shabby gen teel lot and where they come from or where they go to after Congreea adjourns no one seems to know or care. Neverthe less they bob up serenely again the fol lowing year snd pursue their mysterious calling with such physical energy as their precarious existence will Justify Something Dolan In the Lobby.

From Indiana comes the interesting story that Mr. Horry New who has re cently become quite conspicuous In “Hoo slsr" politics Is, in a measure, responsi ble for the sudden and unexpected retire - mcnl of MaJ Russell H.irrtson from the army, A personal friend of MaJ. Harrtaon now In Washington Is responslbla for tbs statement that It was largely dua to Har ry New's Influence st the War Depart ment that MaJ. Harrison received an hon orable discharge from tha voluntoor ear vice a few days ago on the ground that his duties were no longer neoessary. Not - withstanding the supposed friendliness be tween forroar President Harrison and for mer Secretory of the Treasury John C. New, there appears to bes personal feud between the eons of these two distin guished "Hooaler” families. The troubla arose during th* early stages of 4ha >ptn Ish war. Russell Harrison was appointed an assistant inspector general In the vol unteer service. Harry New also received a commission In the volunteer service ml about the same time. The two young ot fleera from Indians were assumed to duty for a time In tha same division, and they frequently met each other both off and on duty. It appears that Hussell Harrlaoo Is. in the estimation of some of Ms best and warmest personal friend*. Inclined to lie whst they urn ' fussy." That Is. be 1* disposed to place greater value on minor technicalities than circumstances some times Justify. Upon entering tho mlWary service he assayed to become a etrtet mil itary dlscgillnarlan. and It ta aald he sometimes carried hla ambition# In that direction to oxtreme. New Failed to Salat*. On several occasions he met fci* former friend. Harry New. off duly. Ae la well known, the army regulations do not re quire officers to wear their military uni forms. Being somewhat of * novlcfc m military athlcs when these two young offi cer* met in civilian attire. Ilsrry Now forgot IO greet MaJ Harrison with a for mat military salute, simply giving him an Informal salutation, such a* l* gen erally exchanged heiween friend* and companions Being Uta ranking officer, II seem* that Itusaell Harrison administered • mild rebuke to C*pt New for disregard ing the military salute. On several other occasion*, while they were on duty to gether. MaJ IlsrrlfOO took occasion to chide Mr New for certain rather Insig nificant offense* against military regula tion*. such as carelessneea In attire and neg,e-ting to properly extend and return military salute* In other words. It la claimed that MaJ. Harrison harrassad Mr. New beyond endurance by continual "nagging" about Insignificant trifles along th* line of military proeoodure. Finally Mr New resented what he termed undue offlcloutnes* and an open rupture ensued between the two young officers. Later on Harry New obtained an honorable dis charge from the army, returned home and In Ihe recant campaign became quit# an Important factor In Indiana politic*. H seems that hla resentment toward* MaJ. Harrison Is still undimlftlshed. and It la asserted that when th* question of reliev ing Me), llsrrlfon from further military service aroee, Mr. New, through personal friends, assisted to a considerable extent In Irapreealnff the authorities at Wash ington that MaJ. Harrison's service* might be dispensed with althouj material in jury to tbo army. 9
