Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE depart
ment officials have been having a pretty
hard week of it. Congress has been doing
nothing since Wednesday, and the result
has been that the members and senators
have been turned loose upon the heads of
departments and the president. They have
been besiegng them by day and by night
for appointments. They have been far
from successful, however. The president
has determined, so these officials inform
their visitors, to make no more removals at
present While the senate was not in SEES
sion it is an easy thing to suspend man
from his office and appoint his successor.
Now, however, it is not so easy, for the
nomination Of a successor goes direct TO
the senate committee, which is liable to in
quire for the reasons for the removal, and
if they are not satisfactory to it, it refuses
to report in favor of confirming the APP
pointee. The result is that the president
has determined to move very slowly in the
way of making removals. Where the term
OF an officer expires he will appoint DEM
ocrat in his place. but he is not inclined to
court qG5rrel with the senate by making
removals on partisan grounds only.
No Formulated Opposition.
\
can senators met in caucus at II o'clock to-
day. Senator Sherman resigned his posi-
ton as chairman of the caucus and Senator
Edmunds was elected to that place. This
action was due to the fact that no senator
has ever been chairman of the caucus and
presiding officer of the senate at the same
time, and Senator Sherman felt it incum-
bent on him not to depart from the line of
precedcntS. The action of the caucus com
mittee in the arrangement of chairmanShipS
OF senate committees, namely, in deciding
to tender to Senator oewell that of the
joint committee on the library and to Sena-
tor Logan his Old place on military affairs,
was ratified. Nearly all the time was de-
voted to a discussion of the line of policy to
be adopted towards presidential appoint
ments. No formal action was taken and
none was proposed. Senators expressed
their views freely and were found to be
nearly unanimous against any general pol
icy Of opposition, but were agreed upon the
ACCESSIBILITY OF treating each nomination on
its merits. Opinions were expressed and
generally assented to that good men APP
pointed to Office because they were Demo-
Gratis should be confirmed, except i'll cases
where their predecessors were removed
upon unfounded charges brought for the
purpose OF making prGteXtS for the vacan-
cieS In such cases. it was urged that the
nominations should be held up to give the
removed officials an opportunity for vindica-
ton. Senators who were present express
the opinion that this plan for the present
will govern the course of the Republicans.

Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-There are a
few men among the new members of the
house TO whom public attention turns at
very first sight. Among the first questions
that the visitors in the galleries ask is,
''Where is Davenport of New York;"
Then they usually ask for Daniel of Vir-
ginia. recently elected a senator, and then
for Scott of Pennsylvania, the millionaire
member of the house. Most of them eX-
press surprise, too, when the men for whom
they ask are pointed out to them. Daven-
port is younger looking man than he is
usually pictured. He is very slender and
quite youthful in appearance, with heavy
brown mustache, wavy black hair and
pleasant face and manner. Daniel of Vir-
ginia. the newly-elected senator to succeed
Malone. Is a Smooth-faced. handsome man,
with Roman nose, jet-black hair and fea-
lures. said by many to resemble
THOSE OF EDWIN BOOTH.
Another individual a good deal asked for
Is Pulitzer of the New York World. Pill
liter is by no means handsome. His scat
tering sandy beard, hook nose and jet-black
hair, which stands stiff and straight, give
him a peculiar appearance, and the COM
mentS by those to whom he is pointed out
are not usually of complimentary char
acter. There is some curiosity to see Dele
gate Voorhees,, the son Of Senator Voorhees,,
who represents Washington Territory. He
is tall. thin youth, rather dudeSh in ap-
pearance, and apparently impressed with
the belief that it would be a cold day for
Washington Territory if anything should
happen to Mr.. Voorhees,. On the whole,
the Forty-ninth congress seems to s'size
up pretty well in appearance. Its new
members seem to be rather above the aver
age So far as we can judge, while among its
olPoaes. there are a good many strong men.

Kicked, Pounded. Robbed.

ROCKFORD, ILL.,. Dec. 11.-William
Foley, aged So. was aroused yesterday
morning early by some one who knocked
and asked for matches. He. supposing it
was a neighbor who had run short, opened
the door to hand them out when he was
felled to the floor by blow. Two men
then leaped upon him, pounding him and
kicking him about the face aid chest until
he became insensible. They then went
through the house. obtaining $1OOi in money
and left. Foley was unable to rise from the
floor, but crawled on his hands and knees
to the door, which had been left open, and
managed to attract the attention of neigh
bors by his cries. He is in pitable condi-
ton, with great cuts and bruises alkover his
pody. besides some internal injuries. The
doctors fear he cannot recover. Foley's
wife was absent from town and he was
alone in the house.

of coinage, but there will be very strong
part that will object even to this. The
only hope seems to be in compromise
measure, but whether any compromise can
be agreed upon is seriously doubted. One
plan that has been suggested is to make sill
ver either in coin or bullion, or both, a
basis for national bank currency, SUBSTITUTE
ing it for the government bonds as they are
taken up. 1t is doubtful, however, if this
plan would prove at all satisfactory to the
banking interests. for it Is understood that
the chief value of the present system lies
in the fact that the bankers get interest on
their bonds deposited to secure circulation,
and also get 4 profit out of the circulation
itself, The fight over the silver question is
evideYly going to be a very hot one.

vessel changed her course. and in short
time the steamer struck the bark on her
starboard quarter, cutting half way through
her hull. The steamer rebounded from the
force OF the blow and then giving Roadway
again struck the bark. The steamer backed
away from the Fidelio and proceeded on
her course. paying no attention to the
shouts for assistance from those on board
OF the bark. The crew of the Fidelio were
unable to cut away their boats owing to the
sea sweeping her decks. and they became
exhausted. On Nov. 80 three of the crew
