The President will not Make any Removals Lx-
ospt for Cause
A special dispatch to the Chicago
Herald says The President has taken
occasion within day or two to reiter-
ate the declaration made BIZ him soon
after assuming the Presidential chair,
that he did not intend to make any re-
movals, except for cause, and that all
Federal officials would be permitted To
hold their respective Offices until their
commissions expire, unless the interest
Of the service demand that change
should take place. He said he would
not even consider applications for Offices
where no vacancies exist, or where the
commissions are about to expire, ~ he
had hardly time enough TO give proper
attention To the eases now awaiting eN-
ecutiye action. He believes thoroughly
in fixed tenure, and will make no
changes except for cause.

in Parsons place who could run the
primaries and if need be manage the
city delegations at the State convention
after the old fashion. The president,
it is understood, has intimated TO them
that they must cease imp0rtuning hIm
on the subject, and that whatever NAV
be the necessities of politicians cut CT
