The Connecticut Republicans here feel re-
lieyed at the result Of the interview OF Gen
Hawley with the President yesterday. he
was non -commIttal in most respects, but
clearly intimated that he had not committed
himself to the Democrats. He Is evidently
trying to keep on good terms with both
sides.
There is nothing certain rs yet respecting
his position except he is on the fence.
a large number OF the Presidents nom
nations have been confirmed by the Senate,
but few are lying over for future action,
with little chance Of approval.
The President thus far has sent IN good
Republicans OF War Democrats. The case
of Gen. Frank P. Blair of Missouri, who Is
nominated as Collector Of the port OF 81.

Senator's regard him as a very bitter pollti-
cal enemy, but the President urges him as a
General IN the war, who has lett the army
moor. This il fact. Blair Is poverty
stricken, and needs an Office, but Is q bitter
opponent of Republicanism.
