missions With Anti-Conk-
ling Men.
THE STATE APPOINTMENTS
WILL BE ANTI-CONKLING.
The Appointments Made Mt the Re-
quest of Garfield.


CHICAGO, December "A Times wash
ington special says The suspicion is in
creasing to a fixed belief that Hayes pol
next four years. The reason for this be-
lief is the manner in which the present
Administration is disposing Of the patron
age of the State OF New York. Daniels,
nominated Postmaster Of Buffalo, and
Haskell to the same position at Albany,
are Conkling's political enemies. Investi-
cation at the Postofice Department devel-
ops the fact that their names had been
sent in two months in advance of the ex-
piration Of the commissions of the present
incumbents. Other important Federal Of
fees in that State will be filed by Hayes.
The commissions Of the Marshals in two
northern districts Of New York, Conkling
men. expire in February. The pines Of
their successors are prominent anti-Conk-
lingites, and will be sent in after the holt
day recess. The commission of Stewart
L. Woodford, District Attorney, expires in
February, and he will be succeeded by an
anti Conkling man. The entire patronage
Of the State will be made anti onkling by
Hayes, in advance Of Gardeld's inaugura-
ton. 1t can be said, on the highest au-
thority that these appointments are made
at the request Of Garfield.
