Mayor Grace OF New York is In |

nry. HIs business here l. ~ regard |

10 give spne v4lu .hle advice con
eernIng all the New York patronage. |
His presence here Is taken as signifi.
cant that the time for mixing thn.e
appointments Is close at hand.
In view OF The cIrculaiiol OF rep1ris
b the effect that the Agricultural de.
parsment had been paralyzed in all
its work by the exhaustion OF The
current fiscal year under the admins.
tration OF the late Commissioner Lor-
Ing, / today made Inquiry OF the
chief officials oi that department as
to the extent Of the embarrassment
for want OF funds, and was informed
that the seed division under the
present regime, had rot been able TO
do anything because there was not
dollar Of the fund belonging to II left
to operate With. 1t was found neces.
sary TO furlough the employees Of the
division because the money
appropriated TO II for the current is-
cal year had all been expended.
The laboratory fund bad been used
under the late Commissioner for the
purchase OF seeds, and hence that
was left without any money,
which made the furloughing OF some
of It's employees necessary. Notwith-
standing the disadvantages imposed,
work has been done In
this division under the new commits
sioner. Ali the divisions except the
three named have heen regularly at
work, and while the forces of some
have been reduced more has been &C.
complished within the same length OF
time than hitherto. @
I have talked with number of
Republican Senator's during the last
two weeks, and do not think from
all I can learn that there will be any1
organized opposition to the appoint
ments Of President Cleveland. The
Republican Senators are old poli,ic-
ians, and accustomed to acquiesce in
the fortunes of politics. The major
lty of them respect the President, and
concede that his appointments are In
the naIn excellent. Few Senators
will have more Influence In the next
CongreIo than General Logan, and Il
Is known that he is on amiable
terms with the President, and his
Cabinet. The same may be said OF
majority OF Republican senators per-
haps the only exceptions are the two
Senators from Virginia, Malone and
Riddlebefger.
