AN UNPOPULAR APPOINTMENT.
Comment on the Selection of John Davis
for Judge of the Court of Claims.

Comment the Selection of John Davis
for Judge of the Court of Claims.
Washington Special,
The nomination of John Davis to life posi-
tion upon the Court of Claims still continues 10
provoke scandalous comment 1t is considered
by the lawyers of the District as one of the most
impudent of appointments, and an insult TO the
judiciary and the legal profession. The juris-
dcton of the Court of Claims is constantly
being increased by the continued reference by
Congress to it of important claim cases involv-
ing nice points of law. The bill referring the
French spoliaton claims to this court, already
passed the House. will probably pass the Senate.
This will add great burden to the work of the
court The members of the court regret ex-
ceedingly the appointment, because they were
expecting some one who would be an assistant
instead of kindergarten pupil.
This nomination will be taken up next week.
If it is confirmed it will be BECAUSE the graft
tude of majority Of senators for several fa-
vors received is greater than their sense of what
is right.
1t is suggested tonight that If vacancy is
made upon the Supreme Court bench this winter
the President will appoint his private secre-
tary, Mr.. Phillips. He is much better fitted
for such appointment, and there would be no
particular scandal connected with his selection.
A senator said tonight that he would not be
surprised to see the name of Aleck Powell, the
Presidents valet, sent in for the vacant
judgeship upon the Alabama Claims Court, as
the President appears to be disposed to get all
his friends comfortably settled before he goes

Extraordinary Efforts to Avert the Necessity
for an Extra Session.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON JAM 17-From now on there
are to be extraordinary efforts put forth by the
House committee on appropriations to avoid an
extra session of Congress. Chairman Randall
seeing the probability of the necessity of an ex-
ira session. has announced that it is no fault of
his, and that he gave way to the interstate COM
merce bill, otherwise the appropriations would
be further advanced He has for several days
been breaking the way to what he feared was
the inevitable. To-day he said:
II believe there will be no extra session. ]
hope there will not be-"
Generally it is regarded with fear, and it
would be received as black eye. An extra
session of Congress would mean a good many
things The most dreaded would be the
tax it would levy upon the new President Great
Subjects requiring special messages, conferences
vetoes, etc. are among the probabilities of an

rush of Office seekers at the same time The
harassments would be doubled and trebled
For while now it may be expected that there
will be some lively work in Congress. Mr.
Cleveland indicated to the Democratic leaders
in the House that he does not want an extra
session from any cause, and the six remaining
weeks are to be we'll employed.

LONDON, Jan. 18-Particulars of the disaster

found the Admiral Moorsom on Friday morning

deck. There was nobody else on board. The
weather was rough, and the Falcon was uriable
to take the wreck in tow On Saturday the
steamship Lady Woodhouse succeeded in getting
lines to the wreck, but during heavy sea Chs
ropes parted and the Admiral Moorsoom event

remainder of the crew not already accounted for.

The Veterans of the First Corps.

WAsHINaToN JAM ia number of veterans
of the First Army Corps met in this city to per-
feet arrangements for an historical visit of the
corps to he battlefield of Gettysburg on May 4
and next. A number of veterans of other
corps were present and took part in the speak
ing Ex-Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania
presided, and made stirring address upon the
battle of Gettysburg and the unwritten history
of the war, which created great enthusiasm. In
the course of his remarks he an
nounced his intention of bringing he
fore Congress, at the next session,
a bill to place Gen. Rosecrans on the retired list
of the army and also asserted that it was the
duty of the country to reward such soldiers as
Slocum and Averill for their services and sacri-
fees Other speeches we're made by Generals
Rosecrans, Colgrove, Stannard and Hunt and
by Congressman Haynes. Woodward, of Wiscon-
sin, and others. On motion of the corps his
torian. Maj. Stine Gen. Rosecrans was elected

Mr.. Randall Believes in Permitting Foreign

Mr.. Randall Believes in Permitting Foreign
ers to Compete for Government Work.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. lS-A confidential friend
of Mr.. Randall said to me to-day that that dis
tingushtd Democratic leader and economist in
the House favored bringing any and all of the
foreign countries into competition with the United
States in furnishing material for reconstructing
the navy. He said that Mr.. Randall would favor
advertising the contracts for supplying SO many
to the lowest best bidders be they French
German, English or American; that the rehabil-
itation of the navy was business matter alto
gether, and as such would be treated.
1t is now pretty firmly settled that the recon
struetion of the navy will be provided for next
winter. It will be if the two houses of Congress
can determine upon plan. 1t may be that there
will be a wrangle over it, and it win be
postponed indefinitely, but that is un-
likely. The majority in the House--the
body that will have most to do in the matter
foundry equal to any and all kinds of work,
and if it is true that Mr.. Randall intends to let
the work of supplying ships out to the lowest
bidders, be they foreign or domestic, there will
be scramble and wrangle in the House over
the matter. 1t is known that the Republicans
to man, are opposed to permitting foreigners to
compete in government work Of any description
Then there is large proportion of both the
House aud Senate who are against anything that
does not include the establishment of foundry
extensive enough to do any kind Of work. so that
we may not be whipsawed in the event of a war
with foreign power in not having our own fa-
cilities for making preparations for successful
controversy.
1t is the belief, too, Of many Of the old mem
bers and senators that party can afford to pat
ronize any other country in government work.
The excuse that there are no foundries In the
United States prepared to mold ships and guns
is not sufficient They say there should be facil-
tiles for this work here, and that the govern
ment should furnish them. The matter :

that General Slocum has fears that President

If Mr. Cleveland should veto these bills, he will
