Jno. 4. June, n. j., at Nueva LeOrla,
Chicago, 8.-JouTndLs Washington:
1t is apparent that there will be tremen-
dous pressure brought to bear upon the
President for the removal of persons Low
in Office, and the appointment of new
applicants. AT one time to-day fully |
400 Office seekers were at the White |
House, endeavoring to get an audiences |
with the President ard present their |
papers. Very few were admitted, and |
the President said emphstically TO
senator who had called with an applicant
that be would Lot make any removals at
and intended to require all |
papers asking for appointments TO come
through the proper departments.
There was disappointment, to-day, that
the President did not send to the Senate
some important nominations, those sent
in being for minJr places. 1t is u1der-
stood, however. that some days will
elspse before any important nominations
are made. The impression prevails that
Judge Bancroft Davis will go into the
state department as assistant secretary,
-esignIug his judgeship on the court of
claims bench 1t is known here that he
ian have the place if he will take it. The
of ID. NJ Pearsons as first
postmaster general in place of
General Tyner, is Considered certain,
lnless Postmaster General James inter-
POSES objections and has choice of his
,wn. Chandler is still talked of IS
olicitor geaersl Of the department of
ustice, in place Of Judge Phillips. who
5 strongly backed, and doubts are enter
aimed whether he can be disp sced with
ut great fight. Ex-Secretary EvaIts
enies that he contemplstes going abroad
nd says he intends to resume the prsc-
ice of the law.
