of the present generation has undertaken
the labor Mr.. Cleveland has imptlsed on
himself of examining papers and deciding
case by case, for himself 1t is necessa-
rily a slow process, and the President adj
heres to it all the more because of the
annoyance which resulted FROM mistakes
in making early appointments. Probably
all other annoyanees put together have
not equalei those caused by the appoint
ments that had to be cancelled. These
cases will TO the close constitute dis
tinct chapter in the Cleveland admins
tration. Ne small part of the slbwness
complained of has resulted from the few
apnointments that we're severely crlti-
cised and the still smaller number that
had to be cancelled The President at
once determined that there should be no
more.
For this peculiar and self-iinposed
task Mr.. Cleveland possesses wonderful
powers. He is ably assisted by Col.
Lamont, his capable private secretary.
1t is not seldom that long after midnight
they are found engaged at work. 1t Is
then only that they are absolutely free
from interruption. 1t is iI this way
that the President expects to lay strong
and broad the foundations of his admin
istration-a confidence which is qualified
principally by the question whether the
patience of his party will not be too
severely tested. Mr. Cleveland is not
ignorant of the doubts which Democrats
sometimes entertain on this point. Faith
in himself never forsakes him. 1t makes
him stand at the head always. Mr.. Lin
coin sometimes quantity expressed a
doubt whether he had much influence
with the administration Not sd with
our President. 1t is more nearly posi-
thus troubled. The number of
ton start with the idea of put
ting an appointment through" faster
than the usual speed is very few You
might count them on one hand, emitting
the thumb. The uniform response to
such request is, file the papers and they
will be taken up in their turn. Except
with very limited number of persons,
this is the inhexible rule. The most
noted exception is Mr.. Dickinson, of
Michigan, for whom the President i'm
bibed great liking and whose requests
have usually been granted out of the rs
ual order. He has been able-snd al
most he only-to reach Washington in
the morning and depart in the evening
with commissions signed. One would
have to think before naming another who
can. This carefulness, which amounts
almost or quite to timidity, has been
communicated to the Cabinet. Never
theless, the President is courageous,
self-reliant and sincere. He realizes that
he is constantly under fire. Let it be
ever so hot, his pace is always the same.

A FUNNY FIRHF.

Few newspaper readers, we think, can
fail to feel some curiosity as to what viii
be the career of the Tory parry that has
now assumed the reins of power in Eng
land. And this because the whole cir
cumstances under which they take office
are so peculiar. We usually see a party
that has triumphed over their opponents
by gaining a majority vote over them as
sumo the places they have won with eclat
Smiles, aud Misunderstanding, and wild
cheering, champagne, music, flags and
speeches. Not so this time. The Tories
perform a sort of Dead Marcel" in Saul,
slow-step advance to their high posi-
tons, having previously haggled out Of
those they have opposed and displaced an
odd sort Of agreement not to oppose
them in turn. 1t would look strange in
a prize-fghter to say to his opponent:
Il have licked you, and you are down
now l will walk away with the prize Of
victory provided you'll promise not to
lick me when | have taken pos
session OF il. Yet this is Just
the arrangement the Tories have
made with the Liberals, and how the two
will go on with their fighting under such
conditions will be something funny to
see. Whether. it will be equivalent to
one pugilist having a hand tied Up and
fighting with the other, or whether in ad-
dition he will be allowed to kick with one
leg as well as strike with one hand, is one
Of the things which the public is waiting
to see. That the Tories, when they find
their maulers' and peppers" in bad
condition to meet Gladstone with, will
complain Of broken promises and violated
engagements, goes without saying" The
way the British people will laugh when
the Tory in this way utters what viii be
equivalent TO saying to their adversary
81 could have licked you if you had let
me. will be a circumstance Gladstone
has several times had the Tories Just
where he wanted them, but never did
he have them in as tight place as now,
whom he has made everything over to
them and says: Now, go ahead, boys,
and show what you can do, and already
the boys see that what they can do is the
very thing .hey don t know.

INDIAN TROUBLES.
Fears of an Outbreak of the Cheyeunes
in Southern Kansas.

Fears Of an Outbreak of the Cheyennes
in Southern Kansas.
WASHINGTON, June 26. = Senator
ingalls, to-day received a telegram from
the Governor of Kansas, saying an incur
sion by the Cheyennes, similar to that OF
1878, is apprehended, and that great IN
easiness prevails. The western part of
Kansas has been rapidly settled up this
season, and the newcomers are in a very
defenseless condition. Gov. Martin,
therefore, expresses an earnest desire
that the Secretary of War should station
troops on the southwestern border o. the
State to guard against attack from the
Indians Secretary Endieott being out
of the city, Senator ingalls, called upon
the President with this telegram, and
was assured that the matter has been a
subject of earnest consideration by the
President and his Cabinet, and that act
i've measures have been taken.by both
the Interior and War Departments to
prevent if possible an outbreak of the
Indians, and to repress it promptly
should one occur,
Gen. Augur has reported to the War
Department that he has sixteen com
panies, ten of cavalry and six of infantry,
at Fort Reno, Ind. Ter. The last com
pany arrived at the fort to-day.
The general apprehends no immediate
outbreak of the Cheyenne Indians. They
have been informed of the proposed ap-
pointment of commission to investigate
their troubles and express a willingness
to await the result.

FOREIGN MISCELLANY.


CITY OF MEXICO, June ga COM
mittee composed of the directors of the
National Bank waited upon the govern
ment yesterday in reference to the appli-
cation of the new law as far that institu-
ton was concerned. The committee was
informed that the provisions of the re-
cent decree were applicable to the Ma
tlonal Bank. The representatives, in
Guiding attorneys of the Mexican Central
and Mexican National railroads, met to
consider the effect of the new decree on
these roads and what action was proper
in the premises, but no decisive action
was taken. The government has sold the
$4,000, 900 worth of nickel coin stored at
the Palace, since what is known as the
nickel riot, at nominal value to the
London Bank acting as agent. The
amount paid was 100000. The nickel is
already on its way to England. 1t is
still believed the government has in re-
serve some extensive financial scheme
that has not yet been bruited.

WEST POINT GRADUATES.
Their Assignments TO be Made on Sec
rotary EBdicOtt's Return.


WASHINGTON, June 26.-It is ex-
pected that the recent graduates at the
West Point Military Academy will be
assigned to the various regiments when
Secretary Endicott returns to Washing
ton next week. There were thirty-nine
graduates. At the present time there
exists fifty -four vacancies among the
officers OF the army, of which sixteen are
in the cavalry branch, seven in the ar
tillery, twenty nine in the infantry and
two in the engineer corps. After the
assignment of the West Point graduates
the commissioned officers who have
passed the examinations by the boards
convened by the various departments
will be assigned. Twelve men were or
dered before examining boards. 1t is be-
lieved that six of them have successfully
passed their examination. This will
make total of forty-fve men to be as
signed, leaving nine vacancies to be filed.
The question has been raised whether or
not these vacancies will be filled by
civilians or be allowed to remain untitled
until the graduation of the large class of
1886 at West Point next year. 1t is
thought that the President will appoint
civilians to the positions and allow Con-
gress to provide for the prospective
graduates.
