PROGRESS OF THE CANAL.
Clearing on the Trees and Laying, out III,
Course of the Cut.

Washington Special, 9th.
Ex-Sccretary Thompson has returned
from New York. He reports that the an
nounccment of the defalcation with the
canal company's funds was exaggerated.
He is informed that the amount taken
was $4,000 instead Of $3O.000, and the
man was captured and $500 of it recov-
clel. He says the complaints about poor
provisions came from the French engin-
GERS, who could not put up with the ma
tive diet. but they had to adopt it, as the
surgeons advised them if they did not
adopt the food of the country they could
not live in tho climate. Mr.. Thompson
says they are progressing faster than was
expected with the preliminary work of
clearing off the trees and laying out the
exact course of the cut. He expects to
be able to have the excavation started by
midsummer. He is having seven hun
dred portable houses constructed in this
country to be taken down there and put
up for the shelter of the men. The COM
pany will also take down a large stock of
all kinds of tools, including heavy steam
shovels, made in Boston, for excavations.
A narrow gauge railway will be run
alongside the canal to carry off the earth
from the excavation to where it is needed
| for purposes of draining. de is going to
try an experiment with American labor
and will test the adaptability of negroes
to the climate, by taking out colony OF
some 500 blacks from the Gulf States

CONKLlNG'S SPEECH.
He Gives the Republican Caucus an Enter
tanning Talk.

Washington Special, 9th.
The senior senator from New York was
summoned to the caucus to-day after it
had met, he being engaged in his COM
mittee room when the deliberations be-
gan. He made a speech of great length
and vigor, which had an unmistakablc
effect upou the caucus. Every salient
point OF his position, of which the public
is now to Il certain extent familiar, was
made clear as day. He gave the caucus
n history Of his relations with the pr esi-
dent from the time of his visit to the
white house, when, as he AYERS, he was
informed that no changes would be made
in the New York offices down to the
present time. He related what efforts
his friends had made to bring about an
amicable adjustment of the differences
The position assumed by the president
of attempting, as the stalwarts claim, to
dictate to the coordinate branch of the
government its method Of procedure,
was sharply criticised. There is feel.
ing among certain senators that the
president, by withdrawing the nomina-
tions of MIR. Conkling's friends and
allowing the nomination of Mr.. Robert.
fon to stand, has practically attempted
to dictate the procedure Of the senate
Mr.. Conllling considered the political
bearing of the controversy between the
president and the New York senator's
He said that in opposing Mr.. Robertson's
continuation he simply represented the
wishes of the republican party of New
| York. The value of the services of New
York republicans to the national party
needed no commentator at his hands
The confirmation of Mr.. Robertson, Mr.
Conkling believed, would weaken the or
ganization i'll the empire state and i'm
peril the success Of the party every

THE WITHDRAWN NOMINATIONS.
They Were not Made at the Request of
Senator COnltIlng.
Washington Special, 9Th.

Washington Special, 9th.
Senator Conllling ha, repeatedly stat
ed that the nominations which President
Garfield has withdrawn were not made
at his request, although they received
his hearty approval. Each one of the
five has always been a devoted adherent
to his interests, and he never denied that
the renppointment Of all Of them gave
him great pleasure; but he has always
insisted that he was never consulted in
the matter until after the nominations
had been decided upon, and the papers
made out for transmittal to the senate.
The senator's friends say that he studi-
gestions to the president, and habitually
any applicants for office, because much
pers about the so-called "rreaty
that bargain was made under
which Conkling was to receive the pa.
tronage OF New York if he would carry
the state for Garfield. The senator de-
sired to avoid everything that might give
q scmblance of truth so any such absurd
story.
But it is nevertheless true that before
the nominations we're sent to the senate
the president consulted with Mr.. Conk-
ling about them. One Saturday, in
March last, MIR. Conkling visited the Of
flee of the attorney general upon other
business, and was informed by Mr.. Mac
| Veagh that the vacancies in offices subor-
dlnate to him in the state Of New York,
Which had remained untitled for several
weeks, would be supplied the following
ing week, and showed the senatora pack.
age of nominations which had been filled
out for the presidents signature.
MIR. MacVeagh remarked that he was
not entirely satisfied with some of tho
selections, but the president had ordered
the nominations made out to be sent tc
the senate on Monday. In this package
were the nominations OF
Lewis L. Payn, to be United States
marshal for the southern. district of New
York.
Clinton ID. McDougalI, to be Unitet
States marshal for the western district o.
New York.
Stewart l.. Woodrord, to be United
States district attorney for the southern
district of New York.
| r. w. Tenney, to be United States dis
trict attorney for the eastern district o
New York.
Mr.. Conkling read them all, and ex
pressed his qualification that the ap
pointments had been decided upon.
