tiOns alone, and he would like to know as

puDLEr's DIFFICULTY,
Ex-senator Mcdonald Is here TO fight
the confirmation Of Dudley, Of Indiana, for
Commissioner OF Pensions. Mcdonald
representing the Indiana Democracy,
charges thNt Dudley US II United States
Marshal exceeded the duties and powers
Of that office in political work; that, in fact,
he prOstituted his Office to political pur'
poses; that he appointed 500 deputy mar
shnls in indianapolis and others in other
portions Of the State to work for the sue
cess OF the Republican party; that these
mNrShAls were in fact political agents and
| Il 20 Il I,nN
Mcdonald expects to rally oil the Demo.
cratic Senators against Dudley. Several
Democrats are Cmbittered against Dudley,
~ they allege that he discharged Compe-
tent and faithful clerks from the Pension
Bureau simply because they were Demo-
Crats. This fight will probably become II
party question, and II does Dudlcys con-
irmution or rejection will depend upon
the vote of Mr.. Davis, Of Illinois. Dud.
lcy's friends claim that there are several
Democratic Senators who will vote for him,
while on the other hand his opponents sAy
that II number Of prominent Indiana Re.
publicans desire Dudley's rejection and
will influence the Republican vote against
him.
