Death of a Persistent Claimant.

PROVIDENCE r. l., Feb. S.-The name
George Washington Bowen, who died in this
city on FRIDAY last, was once as familiar
throughout this country as Roger Tchborne ne in
England. Mr. Bowen was claimant in the
famous suit to recover the immense property
of the late Nine. Jumel in New York in 1878.
Mr.. Bowen claimed to be an illegitimate
son Of Nine. Jume, born previous
to her marriage with Jumel. The latter was
awealthy Frenchman who had become infat-
uated With the Young girl, Betsey Bowen,
aud made her his wife. By a shrewd trick
she obtained possession of his entire prop
erty, valued at 5000, 600. After his death
she married Aaron Burr, with whom she
lived bat short time. She died in 1867
leaving her immense fortune to Mrs. Nelson
Chase, who was alleged TO be a niece, and
adopted daughter OF Mrs. Jumel. Mr.. BOwe n
who had for many years been aware Of his
relationship to Nine. Jumel, made no claim 10
her estate until in 1873 then followed the IA
nous litigation which resulted in a decision
OF United States supreme court adverse TO
the claimant. Mr.. Bowen has always lived
in Providence, and has been a conspicuous
figure upon the street, owing TO his striking
resemblance to George Washington. lie was
ninety-one years old.

GOING ABROAD.
"Pagan" Bob Ingersoli and Steve Dorsey
VIII Enjoy the Returns of Their
Cattle Ranch.
Special Telegram.

Speclal Telegram.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. S.-sPagan"
Bob Ingersoll and Steve Dorsey, of star route
fame, are about to make tour to Europe.
Both have realized handsomely out of their
ranch interests in the far west and mean
to take recess and seek the unalIoved en-
joyment Of life. Mr.. Dorsey will be gone q
year or two, while Col Ingersoll proposes to
be abroad with his family at least
five years. Col. Ingersoll, if not a million
aire, is pretty well assured Of an income
of 100000 year for the future, and pro-
poses from this time on to take life easy
Two years ago, when ex-Sen ator Dorsey was
put upon trial for alleged completely in the
star route frauds, he had very nearly stocked
and gotten under way his enormous ranch
in New Mexico. His eastman in the con-
cern at that time was Mr.. j. W. Bosler, of
Carlisle, Pa. Col Ingersoll became Dorsey's
lawyer, and took for his paw
an interest in Dorsey's ranch.
Not long after the trial Mr..
Bosler died, and the ranch property, which
up to that time was partnership affair, was
turned iuto a joint stock COMPANY, Mr..
John B. Alley, contributingthe largest part
of tae money TO bring ont the Bosler interest,
for which s700, 900 was paid in cash. The
new company was capitalized at two mil
lions Of dollars, of which Mr.. Dorsey retained
one-half, MIR. Alley taking a quarter, Col.
Ingersoll one-sixth, and two Chicago associates
the remainder.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-The Democrats are
beginning to think that Senator Bayard is
going to accept the secretaryship of state. If
be does, this will leave out Mr.. Lamar, as
be has only been talked of in connection
with the first place; be has no real desire to
leave the senate. 1t would be sacrifice on
his part to go into the cabinet. Senators
who have returned say that they do not ex-
pect to hear much more definite news about
the cabinet until March l. 1t is said
here that Mr.. Cleveland does not
appear to be very much impressed with
the candidates for cabinet places who have
sent delegations to Influence his decisions
He is much more inclined to take men who
are not urged upon him. The men who are
the most warmly urged are those who really
have the least chance of being considered.
This fact is beginning to be so well under
stood that a numb Der of gentlemen who have
been over in New York this week feel that
they have more than wasted their time in
going and urging their candidates.

TOO MUCH REFORM.
The Supervising Architect Complains that
Congress Does Not Give Him n sufi-
cient Grip on the Treasury.

| Special Telegram.
WAsHINoToN, Feb s. When Mr. Bell was
| appointed supervising architect the appro-
priation for the expense Of his office was
/ Sl2U,000, s10,O 900 less than the previous
year. At the same time congressman were
complaining because work on the building
| in their districts vas going on so slowly. Mr..
Bell explained that every man in his office
was kept busy and that he had not any
room for more men. If congress wanted
him to push things they must give him
money enough to employ more men and
more room to put them IN. This suggestion
was acted on aud congress at the last session
gave him $4,000.

cal survey. So be was anxious to economize.

cutting the appropriation down 70 $4,000
] The rest of the committee were not in favor
of quite so much reform, so the amount was
fixed at Sl2O, 600, or $50, 900 less than the
sum for the current year. The sundry civil
appropriation bill has not yet been reported.
/ Mr. Bell will have to give up the two rooms

and dismiss the men employed in them, and
business will have to go on more slowly. and
more congressman will complain because the
work 10 their districts is delayed. The last
session Of congress provided for very
FEW NEW BUILDINGS,
and the prospect is that but very few viii be
provided for at this session, but the last ses-

are likely to receive attention as occasion
serves until the calendar is cleared. The
bill to prohibit the importation Of contract
labor, that for the admission of the state Of
Tacoma Washington Territory the land
grant forfeiture bills, the bill to declare rail-
road lands subject to taxation, and
the Pacific railroads sixty yer bill
are measures which are more likely
than any other to receive the attention Of the
senate during the week and the remsind der Of
the session when the appropriation bills are
not before 1t. In the house of representa-
tives, If the appropriations committee is sue
cessful tomorrow in opposing further con-
slderation OF the river and harbor bill, the
post Office appropriation bill will be called up.
Immediately after Its passage the legislative,
executive and judicial hill will be pressed for
consideration. The appropriations commit
tee expect to report the sundry civil bill so it
may be taken up next in turn. These three
measures will probably be sufficient to con-
sumo the week. One hour Of each day may
be devoted to the con nsideration Of unrejected
cases.

New YORK, Feb. S.-The meeting of Mr..
Randall and the committee Of bankers, re-
Gently appointed, with Mr.. Cleveland yester
day afternoon has especial significance at
this time. There IS no doubt that Mr.. Ram
dall's advice on the cabinet question, and on
all other questions is regarded by Gov.
Cleveland as valuable and that it will have
great weight with the president elect.
Messrs. d. o. Baldwin, john A.
Stewart, J. NJ. Fry, J. Seligmau,
and George Vim. Ballou re prese ented the
bankers for whom Mr. Randall had made an
appointment with Gov Cleveland. They
called at 3 O'Clock yesterday afternoon and
were taken into the conference room, when
THEY ADDRESSED THE PRESIDENT ELECT,
and urged upon his attention the necessity
of the immediate suspension of the coinage
of silver dollars. They asserted that the con-
tinued coinage Of silver would drive
ali the gold out OF the
country and ruin business. Coy. Cleveland
listened to them with respectful attention,
and said to them he was confident they had
given the subject Of silver coinage

that they believed all the evils they
had predicted would result If silver coin
age were not discontinued. In view Of these
