NEW YORK, April IL.
The Herald's Washington special
gives the following account of an al
legged interview between Senator Ross
and President Grant. Ross was admit
ted at the same time as old Zach. Chan.
dler, but had the first chance to speak
to the President.
"I come, Mr.. President, to talk with
you about the appointments for my
State, having heard you intend to make
certain nominations, they may not har-
monize with my desires, II you deem II
worth while to consult them In the
least" a.
To which Grant laconically and inter-
negatively reponded:
"Well, Sir"
This Presidential response was not in
the true manner to be relished by the
Kansas Senator,
''Am to understand that I am right
ly informed as to your stated intentions
to disregard my preferences in the mat.
ter of appointments, Mr.. President ?"
inquired the Senator.
''That Is a question hardly susceptible
of an answer, sir. To which appoint.
ment do you allude? Inform me, and
then can reply" rejoined Grant.
Senator Ross liked the second answer
a little better than the first, but having
come 1or enlightenment he was deter
Senator, therefore, with suppressed
rage, explained the appointments to
which he had reference frankly.
"Sir," said Grant, "I intend not to
make those appointments"
What. sir, you scorn to accommo-
boiling over with rage.
"Sir, believe have given you my
answer" firmly but sternly, replied
Grant
"This is not treating me fairly, Mr..
President, nor as one gentleman should
treat another" uttered Senator Ross.
81 have no intention to be dictated to,
sir" said Grant sharply.
"Nor have / to be insulted even by
you sir, were you twenty times the
President" exclaimed Ross, with his
ire stirred up to white heat.
81 must decline to be annoyed any
further on the subject" muttered Grant
between his teeth, land desire the in
terview should terminate"
"You and your desires may go to
hell" roared out Ross.
"Leave the house, or shall force you
OUT" thundered Grant.
Ross took his departure accordingly,
in terrible rage-quitting the White
House like one rushing from plague,
and hurried to the capitol.
President Grant threw himself into
chair the moment tho door closed and
wiped his brow with his pocket hand
kerchief, evidently much excited. Old
Zach Chandler approached and was
thus addressed by the President: "Ex-
cuse me few moments; after that in
terview must take little time to cool
off,"
Such is the account which I have
learned, and which IRive substantially
as it came to me. / do not Vouch for
its truth, but have good grounds for be-
lievinR that it is not very different
from the actual occurrence.

Cabinet Discussion AbOut Cuba
A.I g


NEW YORK, April IS.
The Herald says Senator Ross called
on President Grant yesterday to consult
about nominations for his State. On
finding that the President did not in
tend to make the appointments he want
ed, Nr. Ross became so wrathy and in
sulting that the President had to order
him from the room.
The HcrGld'S Washington dispatch
says that at recent Cabinet meeting
the Cuban question was discussed.
Secretary Fish opposed any hasty steps
toward recognizing Cuban independ-
ence, adding that Spain will tire in re-
sisting the natural course of events on
the island, but In case of interference
she would not only exhaust her re-
sources in resisting, but would call in
France and England, with whom we
would become involved in a combat.
President Grant has great confidence in
Secretary Fish. Secretaries Borie and
Creswell ardently favor Cuban recOg-
milton.
The Herald editorially considers the
Government in the hands of the chair
man of the Senatorial Committee, and
virtually Government by Senatorial
usurpatiOnS.
A large meeting was held last night
at the Brooklyn AtheDmum, under the

Hundred Families Homeless.


Hundred Families Homeless.
MILWAUKEE, April IS.
A dispatch from Houghton, Mlchi-
gan. dated the 18th, says that at one
o'clock, yesterday morning, fire

What Is Thought of hr. CArliIe
Nomination nt Washington.

What Is Thought of Mr. CarlIIe's
Nomination nt Washington.
The correspondent OF the Cincinnati
Commercial telegraphs'
Jos. ]. Bartlett. of New York, is re-
moved from Stockholm, and John S.
Carlisle, of West Virginia, is appointed
to take his place. This appointment
creates very great surprise, as Carlisle
is remem bered as being very bitter
Copperhead during the war. He was
United States Senator during portion
of the period of the war, and, although
elected as a Union man, voted with the
Copperheads on the important ques-
tions affecting the cause of the Union.
The Enqmirer'S correspondent has the
following;
John S, Carlisle, of West Virginia,
nominated as Minister to Stockholm,
was formerly Senator from that State,
and acted with the Democrats. He has
OF late been Grant man, but Radical
Senator'S say that will not save him, J.,
and that he must be rejected.
