PITTSBURG.

PTTsBURG, September 29.-Col.
Rockwell, Major Swain and Major
Clapp, friends Of the late President
Garfield arrived here from Cleveland
last night, and missing connection,
remained over until this morning,
when they continued their journey to
Washington, In course Of CONVEX
sation with reporter of the CONNER
eial-Gazette, Major Swain said: "We
accompanied Mrs. Garfield, Grandma
Garfield, tie children and Private
Secretary Stanley Brown to Men
tor on Tuesday. We we were met at
depot by the Rudolis, Mrs. Garfeld's
relatives, and were accompanied
quietly to the homestead. When we
came in sight Of the old, familiar spot,
Mrs. Garfield was quite overcome foT
moment, but soon recovered her
composure and entered the desolate
home. General Garfeld's study re-
mains just as he left it, and one Of the
sorrowing widows first steps was to go
in the room, where she had spent many
happy hours. She is gradully recov-
ering from the effects of the blow.
Reporter-Has she made any plans
as yet for the future?
Major Swaim-Mrs. Garfield said it
was too early to indicate where she
will reside, but think she will spend
her summers at Mentor in the old
home; in the winter time with her
relatives in Cleveland, where she
will be near her husbands remains,
and part of the time in Williamstown,
Mass, where she will be near her
eldest boys, Harry and Jimmy, while
they are in attendance at Williams
College.
Reporter-When will tho boys 90
back to college?
Major S.-They will leave for Will
liams College on Friday next or Sat
urday morning of this week. Grandma
Garfield in the future will make
her home with Mrs. Garfield. Whittier
the bereaved wife goes the sorrowing
mother will go. The aged grand
mother is very frail, and will spend
her last days with the family of her
dead son.
Reporter-Major, statement has
been published in some of the papers
that you intend reslgning your posi-
tion as Judge Advocate General.
Major Swaim-That statement is
incorrect. l shall not tender my res
ignation.

The New York Tribune, which is
malignant and partizan or nothing, is
terribly exercised at the prospect Of
the Democrats electing a President
pro tempore of the Senate before the
New York Senators and the Rhode
Island Senator are sworn in. 1t has a
great deal to say about the disfran.
chisement of great State like New
York, as if its party had never been
guilty Of disfranchising numbers Of
States at the same time; and as il
it had not disfranchised three States
at once, in order TO seat Mr.. Hayes in
position to which he was not elected,
But, as a matter of fact, New York
will not be disiranchised. Her two
Senator's saw fit to resign, and these
vacancies yet exist. Two Senators
we're elected by the Legislature, but
they cannot vote until sworn in. The
constitution provides that Senators
elect shall be sworn in by the Presi-
dent pro tempore. This office, however
by the act of Mr.. Arthur was kept
vacant purposely. 1t was certainly
no fault of the Democrats. Yet the
Tribune would have them to violate
the Constitution so as to permit tbesC
incoming Senator's to take part il
the election of a presiding officer be-
lore they could be legally sworn in, ,anC
this, too, to give the Republican part!
stronger hold on the Presidentia
Office. This is the sublimest audacit,
and the finest specimen of unchiselet
"cheek" that the world has ever seen
The naked proposition is that tn
Democrats should violate their oatl
of Office and the constitution for tn
benefit Of the Republican party. TIL
Tribune is making itself and its edito
pro tempore ridiculous.
