The Presidents Last Message TO the
Senate.
WASHINGTON, April 2d.-The last mes
sage received by the Senate from the Presi-
dent was as follows
To the Senate of the United States: hereby with
draw my nomination, which was delivered 10
the Senate on March 30th, of Alexander X: Law
ton to be Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary OF the United States to Russia
| GROVER CLEVELAND.
CAUSE OF THE WITHDRAWAL.
WASHINGTON, April 2d.-The cause of the
withdra of Lawtons name is because his
political disabilities have never been re-
moved He was Brigadier General in the
Confederate service during the war.
The President Now Free from Senatorial
Interference.
| WASHINGTON, April 2d--The Senate, at
the close of long executive session, ad-
jOurned this afternoon without day. The
President is now at liberty to make such
official changes as he sees fit, without con-
sidering the wishes of the Senate. What
that body will do next December in rela-
ton to appointments during the recess is
uncertain, but the action OF the majority
to-day ntimates that it will not permit Re-
pubicans TO be thrown out of office before
their commissions expire, simply to make
room for Democratic successors. The
President several days ago announced dis
tinctly that he would not remove officers
having fixed terms, excepting for cause,
until the expiration of their commissions.
| The consular officers have no fixed term.
They can be removed at the pleasure of the
President, with the consent of the Senate,
and not without it. When the present
incumbents of consular offices have not
resigned, or adequate cause for their re-
movals is not produced. the Republican
Senators have decided not to confirm their
| Democratic successors
| A Shame and Disgrace to the Nation.
PHILADELPHIA. April 2d.-Even the sec
ular papers are moved to indignation at the
scandal promised this evening of Good
Friday While the first of the nation lies
struggling with the last conqueror in a
neighboring city, Philadelphia is fairly
wild over q slogging match between the
notorious bruisers Sullivan and Mccartney
industrial Art Hall will be jammed, says
the Times to illustrate the reverence of
| the Philadelphia authorities for Holy Week
Tickets sell at premium, and the receipts
| will be immense. \ large percentage will
go TO pay the price of police protection that
| has been promised. The demand for tickets
has been unprecedented in the history OF
any similar event in this city Seventy
| five boxes said last night in as many min
utes, and application was made for 253
| boxes, which could have been sold as
readily for $50 as for S25, so eager were the
public to witness the fight. Johnny Clark
received dozens of kilograms last night from
Pittsburg, Boston, Baltimore, Washington
and New York asking to have seats re-
served. EX-Mayor Edison, of New York
is expected to occupy a box. 1t is also ex-
pected that Mayor Smith will occupy a box,
|
cording to the Press Sullivan said yester-
dav that ex-senator Roscoe Conkling had
telegraphcd for box, and one would be
| reserved for him. This seems hardly credit
able while the whole nation stands about
the dying bed of the greatest hero of the
present time.
