Columbus Delano has been in hot wafer

and has performed the feat so often, that
it is not safe to bet very high on his sue
cessor. This time it seemed as if he must

matter and determined that the time bad
arrived when the interests of the republi-
can party and of the administration de-
manded his retirement, and the president
rather forcibly informed him that bis resig-
nation was expected and would be accept
ed. Instead of responding, he follows the
example of Fisher, and hies himself to
Long Branch to interview that distinguish

ULYSSES that it is not quite the thing to set
him adritt while ''under fire" but this ar
gument SO often potent has lost It's force
and proyes of no avail. He changed his
tack. and informed the president that il he
went out. he would make it warm for the
administration with disclosures not affect

dent is said to he greatly provoked at
these insinuations, but concluded to make

willing 10 take the responsibility. Accord
ingly, the committee on appropriations
were directed to Inquire into the allow
ance, and the proper auditor OF tue treas
ury was requested to delay the payment OF
the claim. The payment was delayed and,
ON the report of the committee, the joint
resolution authorizing the postmaster-gen-
eral to adjust the claim was unanimously
repealed, and in the appropriation bill OF
that and the succeeding years the post
mas,er-gencral was prohibited from using
any of the appropriation Tor the payment
OF this claim.
But Chorpenning was not content. lie
kept "peggng away" until he succeeded IN
obtaining the interference OF the president,
who submitted to the attorney general The
questions First, Whether the postmas-
Ter general is Obliged to make settlement
and payment under the law as II now
stands and second, Whether the case has
any status in the court of claims. To these
questions, Attorney General Pierrepont
has replied that the claim, as adjusted by
| Creswell, cannot be paid, because the post
master general was not made an arbitrator,
that his decision was not binding on either
party, and that the joint resolution author
ling the investigation has been repealed,
| but that the court of claims has 1urisdic
lion of the matter but that without the
interpositon of congress, the claim is
barred by the statute of limitations. Here
the matter will rest for the present. There
is no immediate danger of the interpositor
of congress. There are too many senators
and representatives of the same mind al

said "lf the claim of this party wer,
