urgent request or Democrats, that Mr..
schurz Is going to Berlin, that there
has been q row in the Cabinet, and that
the President means to put In Packard.
There ID not u word Of truth In any of
these reports. Ihe President means TO
put u very early stop to Federal inter
ference in the two States. He docs not
mean to put 10 Packard, The South
Carolina question will not last another
week. Mr.. Key has not the least intea-
ton to leave the Cabinet. Mr.. Schurz
is going to continue In the Interior de-
partment, and there has been no trou-
BILE whatever in the Cabinet, and not the
shadow Of % difference OF opinion on the
questions which have been before 1t.

Especial 10 Chicago Timea.1
New YoaK, March 26.--Theories and
rumors regarding ex.Mayor Hall have
about exausted themselves. Mfr. Cum
Ing. formerly one Of Mr.. Hall's part
ner's said this afternoon that he had
been apprised Of the arrival OF the Ger
manic at Queenstown to-day, but noth-
ing whatever had been received to war
rant any supposition that Mr.. Hall was
q passenger on board that steamer. The
Germanic sailed the next morning after
Mr.. Halps disappearance. Mr.. Cunning
added that II he did not within two dayg'
time hear that Mr.. Hall had arrived ON
the other side, he would View his disap-
pearance in q much more serious light
than he does at present. He had some
how felt that the chance Of Mr.. Hall
having gone TO Europe formed the
strongest hope OF his safety.
About the court-rooms 1t Was the gem
eral belief to-day that the missing man
will soon be heard from In London. The
theory Of suicide is secuted, and that OF
his having been fonlly dealt with not
entertained, save by very few Of the law-
yers and judges conyersed with upon
the subject.

Especial to 1T. Louis Republicap.I
WASHINGTON, March 2G.-Rather geri-
GUS charges are now pending against
Gov. s. B. Axtell, Of New Mexico, for

While Axteli was holding the former
position he is charged with acting In

this class Of legislation and really man
aged things about to suit themselves.
| Some of the best citizens OF Utah have
been summoned from great distances

making the complaints referred to
against Axtell. The allegations have
been filed in the Interior Department
and will be formally heard tomorrow

talk over Southern affairs and matters
pertaining to his policy in general
They were kindly received by the Preei-
dent, who spoke quite freely with thems
the principal subject OF conversation
being the cessation Of military inter-
ference in the two Southern States.
President Hayes said that the policy oil
sustaining State governments with tne
aid Of troops was not, in his mind, 1he
proper thing to continue, and hence he
| had reached the conclusion that 1t was
| incumbent upon him TO change it. Be-
sides. public opinion had been aroused
upon the subject and was for the most
part opposed to it. In addition 10 this
| it was evident that Congress would not

snch a nolicy, and if he did not have
the TROOPS he could not well see how he
would be able to use them. The failure
Of the army appropriation bill showed
what Congress thought. Ii this were

army, as no provision would be made
for the payment OF troops.
