ton.
The Cabinet changes and nomina-
ton Of Judge Pierrepont, as Minister
TO England, were the occasion OF great
surprise In all quarters. So carefully
had the intentions Of the President In
this regard been concealed, that, with
the exception OF Mr.. Fish and other
gentlemen directly aud personally In
terested, the other members OF the
Cabinet were not aware OF the arrange
ment until the nominations had been
sent to the Senate. Judge Plerrepont
will take immediate steps TO depart for
England, and Judge Taft will, without
delay, take charge Of the Department
of Justice. Judge Pierrepont will
, probably arrive In England before the
termination OF the correspondence
with the British Government on the
Winslow extradltion case.
Mr.. Cameron has telegraphed to his
friends here that he very highly mp
preciates the honor conferred upon
him by the President aud the Senate,
and that 1t was entirely unexpected.
He is now too much indlsposed to
leave home, but hopes to be here in a
tew days, and in the meantime will
decide whether he will accept or de-
cline the Office.

BIainc Won't DO.
CHICAGO, May %. Hon. Carl Schurz
Ia in town. To-day in II conversation
with u Tribune reporter he expressed
very freely his views OH the Presden'
tial candidacy. He considers Brlstow
the best man for the Republican nom
nation, because Of his available
ity with all classes and parties, In
Guiding the independent Reformers,
because he has been one Of the most
active prosecutors Of official frauds
and corruption with which the great
mass have no sympathy, and because
throwing him out would cast more or
less odium upon the party. He con-
siders Chas. Francis Adams an excel
lent choice, but thinks there is little
probably Of his becoming a candidate.
He speaks of Blaine dlsparagingly as
a candidate for Presidency, because he
lacks the record OF u reiormer which
Bristow possesses.
Mr.. Shurtz says the sentiment OF
the couHtry is strongly for reform,
and that the party which wins must
do II on reform basis and with
pronounced candidates against rings.

LOUISIANA MATTERS.
DrOther.ln.Law Casey Forms n Ring on
Ia Peru Claim.
Mas the President TO Appoint His Striker
Gibbs, Consul, In Order 10 Work up
the Million Dollar Claim.

WAsuNGroN, May -. d, y, Foley,
" Washington, testified before the
Louisiana investigating Committee
10 day that, M lawyer, he was en-
gagged In the prosecution ~ large
claim for Peruvian guauo, involving
one million of dollars, aud during the
prosecution ~ that claim he learned
that james Casey, 4. L. Herwlg and
Nicholas Casey were interested IN the
claim, having paid DR.. j, Il, lAndreau,
owner Of the claim, tweuty.eight hun
dred dollars aud promised TOT hid In
the prosecution OF the case. Thomas,
Minister TO Peru, resigned, and then
Casey used his influence 10 have
Gibbs appointed IN his place. The
Cascys aud Herwlg were to receive
thirty per cent OF the proceeds Of this
claim. Witness had conversation
with Casey AFTER Thomas resigned, aud
Casey told witness that Gibbs would
be appointed, but the appointment
would not be made until after the ex
ecutive session of the Senate had ad-
journed. This was In March, 1915, and
In about week after the Senate adj
journed Gibbs WAS appointed. Casey
told witness that Secretary Fish OPP
posed the appointment OF Gibbs.
Witness was the lawyer for DIR. Lam
dreau and Casey wanted witness to
go TO Peru as secretary to Gibbs so
that he could better prosecute the
case, and that WAS why he
held the conversation with Casey.
The United States government was
prosecuting this ease In n diplomatic
way, but had no pecuniary interest In
the matter. Witness says Casey's be-
ing an officer, violated the statute In
buying an interest in claim in which
the United States government was n
party. Witness worked nine months
for DIR. Landreau and then Landreau
sold out his claim to Henry d..
ana Jay Cooke without paying witness
for services. The statute was hunted
up and read TO the committee, who
told Foley that the law had not been
violated ut all, ny the Government
was only acting as n negotlator with
out having cent OF interest in the
proceeds. This witness had told the
committee, about ten days ago, that
he had some information to give and
the committee had him summoned,
aud he had been waiting until to-day
to testify. After he had testified n
motion was made that his testimony
be stricken from the record rs having
no bearing on the matter before the
committed. 1t was finally allowed to
remain for lew days, simply to see II
anything else came out OF II.

England viii Concur In the
Turkish Matter.

LONDON, May 22.-In the House OF
Commons to-day Disraeli, In reply to u
question OF Maurice Brooks, Liberal
and Home Ruler, whether he intended
to advise the Queen 10 extend mercy
to persons imprisoned foI breach Of al
legiance to her majesty, stated that
there were only fifteen persons re-
manning in custody within the cate
CORY of the question. Two OF these
are convicted OF murder, six are IN
English prisons, aud the remainder Ia
West Australia under military surveil-
lance. Dlsraeli said, considering the
circumstances, he could not now rec
ommend the granting OF amnesty.
Disraeli in replying to n ques'
ton OF Campbelps said 1t was true
the Government was able to concur in
the proposal of the Northern powers
for the paoiilcation Of the Turkish
PROVINCES, and that II was impossible
to publish the terms OF the approval
until IL had been formally communl
Gated to the Porte.
1t IL understood that tho Govern
ment will ask that Winslow be further
remanded tomorrow, and rs Baron
Pollock is not likely to make any ditli'
Guilty there Is little probability OF the
prisoners immediate discharge. In
deed, the feeling is growing up here
among those interested in the cast
that the Government will not adher,
to Its present position, but will seel
some other solution Of the question
than refusal on It's own responsible
ity to comply with the requirement
OF the treaty.

A not small indication o. the grow
ing Importance of Dallas Is the loca-
ton among us OF the headquarters OF
the department OF the Southwest, com.
prlsing the States of Arkansas and
Texas of that sterling old Philadelphia
corporation, the Fire Association OF
Philadelphia. Messrs. Dargan & Treze-
want, the managers Of this department,
have, after considerable deliberation,
selected Dallas on account OF lis grow
ing Importance and particularly its
ready access to all portions OF the two
States by rail and wire. Mr.. Dargan
Is from Galveston, and Mr. Trezevant
from Little Rock, aud botlfof them
still retain and keep up their old BUSH
ness relations at those points. The
Fire Association Is now IN the fifty
sixth year of her existence, and with
her enormous assets and Accommodations
of nearly four million 'lollars cash has
ranked for many year among the
first companies ofthe land.
The people are aware of the large
sums of money handled and paid out
by these large old fire insurance COM
panies, and when Dallas is chosen by
one OF them for their headquarters in
stead Of Galveston, Houston or Little
Rock, we feel that Messrs. Dargan &
Trezevant deserve from us our warm
est encouragement and patronage, es-
pecially when they bring into their
business not only intelligence and
character, but also long and valued ex'
perience--a no better tel Of which 10
Tie important appointment they hold.

New YORK has partially recovered from
the terrible blow her pride received, when il
was decided that the Centennial Exposition
should be held at Philadelphia. She has
determined to get up big fourth OF July
celebration all to herself, and show the
Quaker city that they are as much equal
to big things over there As the people on the
Delaware ana Schuylkill. But now another
rival has sprung into existence, which is
Boston, and the Globe of that city takes it
off in the following manner: "They say al
average Philadelphia man has so much
quiet and dsep-seated conceit about him
nowadays, that travellers frequently mis-
take him for a Chicagoan."
The Morning herald., 1876-05-31

CoSKLINaand Blaine both lay claim to
the party vote by reason of their strong par
tizan principles. Both have adhered close
ly to party, and struck out wildly in the deld
of partizan orstory, not as much for the veal
Of tho party, as with an ulterior object,
which has manifested itself since they have
announced themselves as candidates for fa-
vors at Cincinnati. Conkling defended the
administration at every opportunity, espec-
tally Grant, and those grouped around him
in high official position. Blaine took a
broader road to the sympathies of the
Northern radical heart, and found the tar
gets for detraction in Ben Hill, Jeff Davis
and the Southern cause. They have both
worked diligently and ostensbly for the
party, but the mask is lifted, and they are
revealed as they really are, more devoted to
self than to party. If the Repub licans are
going to obey the scriptural injunction, "of
the two evils choose ye the least we are
of opinion that Conkling will prove the
least as he has not put his light under the
bushel of deception near as mu ch as Mr.
Blaine
