Mac ahOn to be Impeached

PARIS, December u. Nothing definite abou
the new cabinet is known yet. 1t is said there i
a possibility of MacMshon's impeachment on sew
ersl grounds.
The clerical organs defence says the senate re
fused to sanction dissolution, which would re
lease MacMahon from his promises and leave him
free to retire.
1t hopes, no wever, MacMahon will not be eager
to seize such opportunity, aud thinks his devotion
to the country suggest to him a loftier and Fl inner
resolution.
A deputs,ion of senators and deputies from the
department Of the Vosges and city of Nancy to-
day presented memorial to President MacMs
hon, relative to the depression of trade and they
entreated him to place himself in direct commu-
nication with the moderate republicans.
The marshal was much affected, and declared
he had TO personal ambition. lie was Indifferent
alike in regard to Count dc Chsmbord, Count de
Paris and the Prince Imperial. and would main

of the party and the interests of the country.

net continues.

Alleged Frauds.

NEW ORLEANS, December u. The Times says
the reports which have been current for weeks, OF
crookedness in the Darrell Acklen contest in the
81 congressional district, have developed into
something more definite than mere fumors. The
L. 5 District Attorney has filed criminal infor-
nation in the L 5. Circuit court against Geo. b.
Loud, charging him with inducing an officer by
illegal means, to violate his duty 10 regard to
certificate as to the true result of the election il
the parish of lberville, for representative to con
gress from the Sd district.
According. to the evidence on which the infor
nation is based, Geo b. Loud was instrumental
in having about 1000 ballots, on which was the
name OF Darrell distracted from the ballot boxes
Of the parish of lberye, and about that number
with the name Of Acken upon them placed in the
boxes, thus changing tho result of the election.
1t is claimed that the change was discovered when
the ballots were re counted under order Of the
congressional committee TO lake testimony. Two
or three of the parties vino it is said assisted in
this transaction, have made statements of the
part they took In it, Mr. Loud was, under the
Kellogg administration, district superintendent OF
education.

POLITICAL NOTES.
THE NEW YORK CUSTOM HOUSE
APPOINTMENTS.


WASHINGTON, December II. The Senate wa,
In executive session to-day nearly six hours, ad
Journing only at o'clock this evening.
The entire session was devoted to the New YorL
custom housa nominations, two OF which, namely
those of Theodore Roosevelt, to be collector il

The third namely, that of E. A. Merritt, to b.
Surveyor of customs, in place OF Sharp, whose
commission has expired, was reported with a ia
vorable recommendation.
No opposition was manifested to the latter, bu
the contest in regard to the two proposed remov
ais was extremely animated and took a very wide
range, covering discussion of the right. power
and duties Of the President in regard to removal.
from office, and the subject of the civil service
policy IN general.
MIR. Conkling, chairman Of the committee OF
Commerce, opened the debate with a brief state
mcnt of the reasons why, in the opinion of the
majority OF that committee, the two first named
nominations should not be confirmed. These
were, in brief, that no charges either of corrup-
ton or ineticlency had been made against the
present incumbents, but tina; on the contrary they
were conceded TO be faithful, honest, experienced
and able officers.
Mr. Bayard followed in an extended argument,
maintaining the right Of the executive TO make
changes which, in his opinion, would be for the
heneht OF the public service, he being responsible
Tor the execution OF the laws, and entited to Sc
lect his agent subject to the confirmation of the
Senate, but without being obliged TO furnish to
the Senate a statement of his reasons.
Mr.. Herman then delivered speech of consid-
cradle length on the same side of the question, de-
Tending the action of the President.
Mr. Gordon was the next speaker. lie warmly
