Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Nov. 25.-If 1t IL true that the cleo

coming in, the disappointment grew into con-
sternation. The Birmingham results, however.
proved encouraging, and were received with re-

orator Lord Randolph Churchill was, at first,
reported victorious over John Bright This pro-
duced panic. Messengers were dispatched in
stantly to the reform and Devonshire clubs to
learn If a confederation had been received there.
1t was half an hour before the mistake was
known. All the seven liberals were successful
in Birmingham. This is a triumph for the eau

Tine Paramount POstmastership.
REPRESENTATIVE WILSON DENIES THAT BE
HAD AN UNPLEASANT CONTROVERSY WITH
THE PRESIDENT
Representative Wilson, ofwest Virginia, who
Is now IN the city, was asked by aSrAR reporter
to-day In regard to the published statement
that ne mad an unpleasant controversy with the
President relative to the removal of the repub-
lican postmaster at Paramount, West Va. Mr..
Wilson said the interview between himself and
the ffes1dent upon that subject had been
grossly misrepresented. He safi the President
did say that he had had Q request from ex-
President Hayes to reappoint Thomas
Reed the republican incumbent, and that he
lthe President) would be glad to comply with
the request OF his predecessor. Mr.. Wilson de-
MES that the President said Hayes had a title
TO the presidency as good as that held by HIM
self tCieveiand.) He says the President said in
a tocular way that out of fifty thousand post
masters ne thought he might be permitted to
have one under this administration. But, &C
cording TO Mr.. Wilson, the President added:
GIVE me the papers: will examine them and
do what is right" Mr.. Wilson says the inter-
view was pleasant throughout: Among
ton Of Reed was one declaring that
field. When the matter was inquired into it
was shown that Reed simply sent a telegram to
Mrs Hayes, informing her that her husband
was dead. At any rate after examination the
President removed Reed and appointed Barnes,
q democrat. This action, says Mr.. Wilson, has
given entire satisfaction to the West Virginia
democrats.

Revocation of Regulations.
CUTTING OF TIMBER ON GOVERNMENT MIN


CUTTING OF TIMBER ON GOVERNMENT Mn
ERAL LANDS.
Some time ago Gen. Sparks. the commissioner
of the general land Office, issued a circular Civ
ing system of regulations governing the cut
ting Of timber for agricultural and domestic
purposes on the mineral lands in the west.
These rules prohibited the cutting of timber ex-
cept In the vicinity where 1t was to be con-
sumed; forbid its use for manufacturing pur-
poses, and provided that a settler could not pay
for its cutting, hut must do it himself. These
new rules have seriously interferred with the
settlers and infringed upon their rights. and in
consequence great number OF petitions and
protests have been received at the Interior de-
partment. When Assistant Secretary jerks
looked into the matter he found that the COM
missioner had prepared these regulations and
had them issued, expecting that they would re-
celve the sanction of the Secretary of the In
terror. This has never been given, and to-day
an official statement was prepared ut the In
terror department to the effect that these regu-
Iations were ISSUED inadvertently and with
out authority of law" Continuing, it says:
''The subject is now under consideration by the
department, and when any change is made in
the present regulations it will be properly an
nOunceu.''
