EASTERN DISPATCHES

WASHINGTON. March 22.-Ths inlu-
ences which have brought abou. the &C.
lection OF Senator Teller for the Interior

has been . warm supporter Of Conklipg
In his contests with two Presidents. he
voted against Merits confirmation
when Arthur wal removed from the New
York Custom House by Hayes. and hs
also voted against Robertson's conirma-
ton last spring. He is. therefore, thor
ouRhly acceptable to the Stalwart wing.
He ia also from what may be called Q
Pacific State, and will be In o measure
satisfactory to the Far West In It's dc.

His nomination will be favorably 70.

On tho other side, II 10 reported that
