Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec 5.-The indications are
that there will he at least 100000 men in Wash
ington early in March, who will come to relieve
the present army of department clerks from
their arduous duties. Every Democratic con
gresham, and especially those from the States
which supported Cleveland, is loaded down with
applications for places already. The smaller
hotels and cheap boarding houses have found
that next spring their harvest time will be-
gin. Nearly every available room in
the city has been rented for Inauguration
week, and fully 90 per cent. of the roomers ex-
pect places. 1t has been the by-word of Wash
inston since 1877 that if one wants n place he
must come from Ohio. The indications are that
Buffalo will now take the lead. Hundreds of
Buffalonia MS who never visited Washington
before have been here during the past ten days,
| and nearly all of them inquire infinitely into the
character of work done and pay received by
clerks and officials in the various departments,
There viii be grievous set oil Buffalo men
here in March, said Democratic sena-
tor, who is warm friend of Cleveland,
''as the residents of that hamlet have an idea
that the national Offices will all go to them.
There have been at least three Buffalo men
named as probable Cabinet officers, and there is
scarcely respectable Office within the gift of
the President that a Buffalo man has not applied
for l know Governor Cleveland well enough to
assert that he will not make such fool of him
self rs to listen to this horde. He will no doubt
remember some of his friends, but he will not
give US too much Buffalo steak
Another Democratic congressman, who has
never been known as warm friend of the civil
service commission said to-day: 81 thank God
and George Pendleton for that law. 1t not only
saves my political neck, but it easies my bur
dens. Here 1 have received 383 applications for
cerkships, and copies of the civil-service law and
regulations answer admirably as replies. But
for that law L should be a ruined man. AS it is

There is good deal of talk here about the prob

of the Governors friends that he might invite
certain men to places in the council of the ex-

heard in the matter, and has sent verbal re-

have been rejected. SO there will

Recent Defeat

The Chancellor in a Rage Because of His
Recent Defeat.
LONDON, Dec. 5-Prince Bismarck is doing
his best to assume an air of indifference over his
recent defeat in the Reichstag, but private ad-
vices from Berlin show that in reality he is
furious. He is represented as chatting terribly
over bis failures, and as being in condition Of
nervous irritability, which his friends fear may
result in serious illness. He first realized his
loss of in the new Reichstag when that
body passed resolution fayoring the payment
of members by majority of nearly two to one,
the vote standing $50 to so. The Chancellor had
always opposed this measure and had defeated
it in successive Reichstags for the last ten years
The day of the decisive vote, the Goth ult. he
made vigorous speech against it, but he made
the mistake Of showing that the gov
eminent opposed it because it wanted
none but aristocrats in the Reichstag,
This rallied all the elements of the
opposition to the support of the measure, and
the government received its first overwhelming
defeat of the session Ever since that time
there have been frequent exhibitions of intracta
bility on the part of the Reichstsg. On the 9th
ult. there were furious attacks upon the budget,
and a determination was shown to resist any in
crease of taxation. On the Goth Reichstag
committee reported adversely on the Chancel
lors proposition to establish the Office of Second
Secretary of Foreign Affairs, to whom should be
referred all questions relating to the colonies.
The establishment of this colonial Office has been
a pet scheme with Prince Bismarck ever since
Germany under his guidance, has actively en-
barked in colonizing schemes. 1t is also under
stood that things are not going quite smoothly
with Bismarck in the Congo conference. At all
events, he has displayed great annoyance at the
publicity which has been given to the proceed
ings of the conference and threatens to confine
the report to official gazette to be established
for that purpose

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec 5-Representatve Smalls
of South Carolina one of the brightest colored
statesmen in the South, predicts war of the
races at no far-distant day in his section, if
something is not done to protect his people at
the polls.
"rhere were all the schemes imaginable
worked in South Carolina to make tho colored
people lose their votes at the recent election, "
said he to your correspondent to-day "At one
poll visited, he continued, there were six bal
lot-boxes, all strung along in line. There was
long chute leading up to the place where the
ballots were cast When a colored man came
up to vote he was not told which box
to drop his ticket into, and more than half the
time they were deposited in boxes that were not
opened when the tickets were counted You see
there was nothing technically illegal in that
in the eyes of the election board, and so tens of
thousands of votes were lost
where were the Republicans}' inquired
Mr. Smalls shrugged his shoulders as he replied
with warmth
'Thoso who wore not colored men and intim-
dated were white men, in sympathy with the
Bourbons, and often bribed South Carolina
with majority of colored people, cast her vote
for Cleveland and Hendricks. This thing will
eliminate some time in bloodshed, 1 fear

RI0T0US STRIKERS.
A Connecticut Town in Possession of a Mob
NO Violence Yet Attempted.

New HAVEN, Conn. Dec. 5.-The labor diff
culties between the employees and the striking
matters at South Norwalk eliminated tonight in
public demonstration. Rumors of importation
of non-union men brought out the strikers in
force, and while no open acts of violence were
committed, the threats of the mob so alarmed
the manufacturers that they telegraphed Gov
ernor Waller as follows:
1.-THE manufacturers of south Norwalk would most
respectfully call upon yo1 for protection the city
being in the hands of mob Our lives and property
in danger. Mayor and officers unable to
render any assistance"
A special dispatch to the Morning News
stated that the city was under control of
a mob, and although open acts of violence
have been as yet perpetrated, the public fear is
very evident, The manufacturers and officers
are in close communication, while delegations
patrol the streets and large mob surrounds
the depot, watching all incoming trains.
Governor Waller is at Meriden In response
to a telegram asking for troops to quel a riot
he sent word to advise with Adjutant general
Couch. in Norwalk. and if necessary, the Gov
error himself would go to the scene.
A later dispatch from South Norwalk says a
committee of strikers joined with the sheriff in
issuing the following bulletin at midnight
-s There riots, disorder fires at South
aalk,. The city is perfectly quiet. and has been,
and good order prevails all reports to the contrary
