will be present The meeting will continue
through the day, and conclude at night with a

masters.
Washington Special.
Postmaster general Hatton to-day put his foot
down hard on a practice which has been in
creasng rapidly for some time, until it has
reached the dimensions of a great abuse The
only wonder is that his order to postofice in
spectors directing that they shall not borrow
money or receive advances their pay from
postmasters, on pain dismissal, was not given
long ago by one of his predecessors. Numerous
instances have been recently reported in which
the obligation incurred on one side and the credit
extended on the other have interfered with inn
portant Investigations and have been made the
means of allaying suspicion of wrong-doing.
Possibly the order will stop the abuse, and pos
sibly it will not

Democratic Jealousies in Indiana.

bDbIUn HtrHId-
The elements of uncertainty which exist in
all the doubtful States this year, and in some
that have heretofore been accounted safe, are
increased in Indiana by personal jealousies
among the Democratic leaders. Mr.. English is
said to be suking and there is considerable
soreness among McDonalds friends over the
manner of Hendricks nomination. In spite Of
this, the Democrats are making stubborn fight,
and hope for success The Prohibition move
ment is source of anxiety to the Republicans,
and as there are too many exposed points along
the line of States to admit of such concentration
as was made there in 1885, and as has just been
repeated in Ohio, the chances are more nearly
evenly balanced than they have been in many
years, Indiana will most likely be carried by
the ablest generalship and the longest purse
