Removal of Governor Axtc!l-
WASHINGTON, September 4.
The removal OF Axteii and the appoint
ment of Lew Wallace is causing general
comment in Administration circles. A
-x.k n Nx.~-x 49, 80 J. - ~ MA r.xyu he 4,
in receipt Of letters from the most trust
worthy sources stating in effect that Wal
lace has been one Of the bittorest of the
Presidents opponents, denouncing his
public course and the President personally
at every opportunity. The official referred
to says the GovernoTship Of New Mexico
was, under consideration by the Cabinet
on Friday. McCrary urged Wallace's
appointment. Schurz denounced Wallace,
claiming that his personal abuse Of the
Administration should not be rewarded by
such an appointment as the G~overnorship
Of New Mexico. From the talk of the
Government officials there appears to be
no doubt that an attempt will be made to
defeat the confirmation Of Wallace when
the Senate shall meet. They say he cannot
be confirmed, because the Democrats will
vote against him, he having been one Of
the visiting statesmen to Louisiana. The
Republicans will oppose him on the ground
that he has changed HIS political views in
order to gain Office.
