CHICAGO, ILL.,, March 1.-The Eueming

editorial headed ''He will decline," referring
to Conkling's appointment. learn inciden.
tally that the editorial is based upon authentic
| information. The following is an extract
from the editorial:
| The little men whom God for some inscruta-
BILE reason permits to edit class of Republi-
| can newspapers, are all engaged in explaining
why Roscoe Conkling will accept the nomina-
tion rendered him by the president to the
supreme bench. One asserts that he "had
sure thing of it all along" and implies
that he had been waiting for it,
and then says that he finds it is hard
to get back into the practice of law, and that
his gains and prospects in his profession have
been overestimated, and then asserts that his
health is broken and that he feels the need of
withdrawing from active life. All these little
people are simply showing their incapacitY to
comprehend Roscoe Conkling. The fact that
he remains comparatively poor man, worth
perhaps 600, with the same opportunities
as have made Blaine, Window and Sherman
worth 100000 each, conveys no lesson to
them. The fact that he has never paraded him
self before the political gatherings of
the intensely republican states from Maine to
California, and ''hobnobbedn with all the
local county court politicians in advance of
national conventions in order to work up his
"claims," teaches them nothing. The fact
that he has once declined the highest position,
chief justice of the supreme court, when ten
dered to him by President Grant, is not in
structive to them. Theystlll mistake him for
man who looks upon politics as means of
rendering himself comfortable. We can as
sure these gentlemen that they do not
know Roscoe Conkliug. If they but
half knew him they would know
that he will not accept the JUS
ticeship nor any other appointment
whatever. There is a force in life of abso-
Lutte, clear and consistent integrity which is al
ways triumphant, irrespective of the accident
of popularity, and this is the force which will
inspire Roscoe Conkling to decline all honors
whose acceptance might imply that honor it.

positively that Conkling has declined the as
sociate justiceship, and suggests Clearance A.
Seward for the place.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The report that
ConkliDg had declined to the president and
signified his desire of the appointment OF
Clearance Seward to the supreme bench, was
printed here to day, but it is not credited
The senate expects to take up Conkling's NOM
nations and act upon it this afternoon. If
Mr.. Conkling has signified his declination to
the president the senate has not yet received
any notice of the fact, and hence it is not
believed that Conkling has not intimated his
purpose yet.
Several attempts to organize opposition to
COnklng in the senate have been, but all with
out success. There was some talk this fore
noon of democratic opposition, but the SEN
ators on that side are evidently not disposed
to make any fight. Leading democratic SEN
ators were advised if they could get
their side of the chamber to oppose
Conklng enough representatives would JOIN
to reject him, and some Democrats favored
such an idea, bnt it seems now to have been
abandoned, as Conkling has some strong
friends among the Democrats. VOORHEES, has
spoken in his favor, and Harris, COckrell and
other Democrats are counted among his
friends.
Present indications are that only two or
three votes will be cast against him. Hoar
and Hawley, it is believed, will vote against
him, and probably one or two Democrats,
though several Democrats who don't like
Conkling personally have stated they will not
vote at all. The report of the judiciary COM
mittee on the nomination was at first thought
to be unanimous, but Bayard, who had not
been seen about the matter, declined to sign
it, though he said he would not make mi
nority report against the confirmation. The
impression in the senate is that there will be
discussion over the case.

The senate committee on railroads to-day
resumed hearing statements relative to the
pending bill, which proposes to ratify the act

company that if it would withdraw it's bill
from the Choctaw legislature, and allow the
former company to procure a charter, the st.
Louis & San Francisco company would make
contract binding itself to build bridge over
the Red river jointly with the Chicago, Texas
s. Mexican Central company and give pro
rata amounts. He said, the latter company
agreed and cooperate with the agents of the
st. Louis g. San Francisco company in passing
its bill, but after its passage the president Of
the st. Louis s. San Francisco company repu.
dated his agreement and deied the Chicago
company to prevent the ratification of the In

Mississippi River improvement.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The house CON-
mittee on improvement of the Mississippi
river gave further hearing to-day to Capt. ].
B. Eads, who occupied an hour in defense and
explanation of the jetty system at the mouth
of the Mississippi river, by which, as he
claims, the depth of water through the south
pass has been increased from eight feet, aver
age depth before the work was commenced,
TO 26 and 80 feet at the present time. He laid
great stress on the Importance gradually
closing up or letting the discharge of the
Mississippi river through Atchalafalya, few
miles below the mouth of the Red river, and
predicted that otherwise the whole volume of
the Mississippi river would In the course of
time take that route TO the sea. Capt. Eads
Was asked by a member of the committee
whether he had any confident theory of a plan
that would prevent such disastrous overfows
as the present one, and he stated in reply that
if the gaps in the levees were repaired, which
could be done at an expense of $2,G00,000, such
overfows would not occur, and low-water
navigation of the Mississippi from Cairo down
would be greatly improved.
