Gen. Sanborn's Chances to Succeed
Judge Nc Crary Considered Ex-
cellent.
Civil Service Appointments, and How They
are de--NOrthwestern Personals.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. I

| WASHINGTON, March 1.-The contest for the
successorship to Judge .McCrary has finally mar
rowed down to choice between Judge Brewer,
of Kansas, and Gen. Sanborn, of Minnesota,
Judges Hallett, of Colorado, and Wagner, of
Missouri, being practically out of the race, al
though Secretary Teller is still pressing Judge
Hallett. 1t is the impression tonight that San
| born's chances are excellent.
| CIVIL SERVICE REPORT.
| The most interesting feature of the civil ser
| vice commissioner report is to be found in the
statistical appendix. Up to the 10th of January
ffty-three persons had been appointed under the
| civil service law in the departments
here. AS there are about $500
clerks in what are called the
classified department service, this is trihe
less than per cent in six months. But then it
must be remembered that the vancancy which
was anticipated within q month or two after
the 10th of July, was provided for before
the law went into force, and vacancies
have been occurring much more slowly than
usual OF the appointments five each were from
New York, Pennsylvania, and Illinois, three
each from the District of Columbia, Maryland
and Michigan, two each from Alabama, Indiana,
Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Missouri, New Jersey,
Virginia and Wisconsin, and one each from Cali
fornia, Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New
Hampshire, North Carolina, Rhode Island, South
Carolina, Vermont and West Virginia, Since the
10th of January fifteen appointments have been
made, making sixty-eight in all. To get the
thirteen clerks appointed up to the 10th of Janu-
airy 491 men and 293 women were examined,
and Of this 7s4, 459 passed the examination, being
marked at sixty-ive per cent. of perfection.
The report says: SIT appears from statistics
presented herewith that sixty-fve per cent.
of all those who have entered the service through
| competitive examination were educated in
the common schools alone. But the service has
not been filled by boys and girls direct from the
schools" The average age of all those appointed
under the new system has been about thirty-two
! years.
| PERSONAL.
E.. F. Drake, of ST. Paul, arrived to-day and is
| at the Riggs.
Gen. Sanborn left for home tonight via New
Jersey, where he will passa few days with rela-
tives.

on q Qeau run. (LauSHler)
He said he had always been on good terms
with General Keller, until the trouble arose
concerning the opening of the press gallery
He said the McGarrahan claim had no con-
nection with the rupture between himself and
Keifer. General Boynton testified further,
that on the night of the day on which General
Keifer says he approached him corruptly,
General Keifer was in his, Boyntons) office,
and had long and friendly talk concerning
the tariff bill. He would call five other wit
nesses to corroborate this statement.
The witness continued: In my Office that
night, General Keifer called my attention to
the fact that he might be obliged so to rule,
if certain points were made, as to defeat the
tariff bill. That is the thing that fixes my at
tention more particularly in reference to the
occasion. The witness testified that he never
had a conversation with Elder in the corridor
of the capitol, never knew that Elder had a
bill of any kind, and never said a word to
him about the McGarrahan bill.
Question by Ramsey. ''Did you ever say
anything to Chas. Garfield about the McGar-
rahan claim?''
Boynton. 'No, sir. l could make q
statement in reference to the various details
that are given in that testimony of Gen.
Keifer's in regard to the secret interview.
For instance, he says, brought the McGar-
rahan bill to him. never had McGarrahan
bill in my possession, or in my hands, until
after this controversy arose, and it had be-
come public in the papers, and have never
read it. l never took that bill to him at any
time, either that bill or any other, so far as
/ know

ton, ha ond GalA
in the lobby and that the conversation
described by them never took place.
The cross examination was conducted by Mr.
Coleman, with whom General Keifer was in q
consultation during its progress. 1t was long,
sharp and searching. The direct testimony was
repeated, with some elaboration, but it was not
shaken in any respect. In the course of the cross
examination Boynton detailed the occurrences
in Speaker Keifer's room, and the questioning
proceeded as follows
Coleman While you were talking to the
speaker did you lean over the table and talk to
him in a low voice!'
Boynton-'' No. sir, 1 did not.'
Coleman Then what White and the speaker
testified to in regard to that
Ramsey object.''
Boynton-s' 1t is square perjury
Adams enquired whether the witness had ever
told Keifer he had some friends interested with
him in the McGarrahan BILL and that there was
enough in it to make them all rich?
Witness denied emphatically he had done so.
He had never told Keifer he was fool and won Id
leave the chair without money or friends In re-
lation to the statement in regard to Colfax and
Blaine, he wished say, with the greatest empha-
sis, he had never said anything of the kind to
Keifer, under any circumstances whatever Gen.
Boynton said, he did not have in his hand paper
or bill when talking to Gen, Keifer, and did not
give him on that occasion copy of the McGar-
rahan bill.

and gaping crowd of hoodlums followed in

at the City Hall, which was packed almost to

the door to help defray expenses. The mass
were drawn thither out of mere curiosity,
many being among the elite, while the rsbble

come doubtless for the purpose of guying
what had usually been heralded about as a
fantastic performance OF crazy montebanks,
were awed into better behavior by the pre-
ponderanee of the better element and the
honest aud sincere manner IN which the
services were conducted There were Siugu-
larities in their manner of worship, and
the quaint and uucouth manners of the sol

from the first, an impression existed that they
