THE GARFIELD FAMILY AND OTHERS LEAVING
INTENTIONS OF GEN. SWAIN AND col. ROCK
WELL.
CLEVELAND, O.. Sept. 27.-Mrs. Garfield, ac-
cOmpanied by her children, mother Garfield, Gen.
Swain, Col. Rockwell, Col Corbin and J, STAN
ley Brown left for Mentor at 12 o'clock to-day.
Swain, Rockwell and Corbn will take the even
ing train for Washington.
Col. Rockwell says upon his arrival at Wash
ington he will tender his resignation as COM
missioner Of public buildings and grounds in
Washington. He thinks that certain army
influence will be antagonistic to his re-
tanning the position longer, and that the pressure
upon PRESIDENT Arthur to change him will be
greater than can be successfully resisted, and
for this reason Col Rockwell thinks he had better
relieve the President by rendering his resigna-
ton at once. Gen. Swams army friends are
doing all they can to persuade him
not to carry out his announced purpose
think to-day that he will withhold his resigna-
ton for while. Both Swain and Rockwell
have an idea that they are to be made very
uncomfortable under the new administration in
consequence Of the intimate relations they sus-
tanned to the dead President. There are certain
persons who are doing all they can to make
these officers believe that they are to be perse-
cuted and put on the black list, and made to
feel very uncomfortable in the future.
