HOME FROM WASHINGTON.
Senator Mcdonald Declined Foreign Mis-
si0n-His Estimate of the President.

Last evening Journal reporter called upon
Hon. Joseph E. Mcdonald, who has just re-
turned from Washington He beamed benig-
nantly upon the reporter, who is an old acquaint-
ance, and motioned him, after hearty hand
shake, to chair. How did like my visit to
Washington" said Mr.. Mcdonald, repeating the
reporters question. II was very well pleased
with everything there. Ny acquaintance with
the President was formed there, and was very
pleasant on my part, at least. I also met, for
the first time, his Secretary of the Treasury and
the Secretary Of War. The other members of
the Cabinet ! was personally acquainted with
before"
"What do you think of Mr.. Clevelandl7

lectual power than has been conceded to him.

sesses a great amount of reserve

offices. The President is plain, practical man,
and will give US very excellent illustration of a
plain, practical Democratic administration"
John p. Frenzel, who accompanied Mr.. Nc
Donald to the capital, also returned with him,
and yesterday afternoon was called upon by a
Journal reporter.
'You remember the reference in the news
papers to little private conversation President
Cleveland had With Senator Mcdonald on the
occasion of our calf Well, on that occasion the
President asked Mr. Mcdonald if ne could be in
duced to accept foreign mission, and the offer
was declined with thanks. Afterwards Secre-
sary Bayard formerly rendered the Senator the
Russian mission, but it was again declined. He
was received with great distinction by the lead
ers of the party"
Like Senator Magee, Mr.. Frenzel thinks that
John B. Stoll is almost sure to receive the ap-
pointment of Public Printer. He also gave it as
his opinion that Creelman would be appointed
postmaster.

Water-Tanks Burned.

About o'clock yesterday morning the two
water-tanks at the Belt road bridge over Pleas
ant run, were destroyed by fire. But for the
prompt action Of Superintendent Whitcomb, the
new Howe truss bridge adjoining would also
probably have burned Colonel Whitcomb ran
a rope around the tanks and attaching it to an
engine had them pulled down.
The heat was so intense that the boiler in the
water station was exploded and a portion of it
was thrown 200 feet over into an adjoining field.
The burned building cost s, 900 about eighteen
months ago. General Manager Malott has given
orders to have the same rebuilt at once

IT is POSTMASTER cREELMAN.
Definite Information Received that He will
Succeed Colonel Wildman.

Although the President has not yet formally
succeed Colonel Wildman, it may be stated on
the very best of authority that Vice-president
Hendricks has received very decided slap from
the administration, and that Mr.. Bynums
recommendation of Mr.. Frank Creelman has
beer favorably received by the Postmaster
general. Aquilla Jones received a telegram
from Mr.. Hendricks yesterday afternoon con-
veying the intelligence that Mr.. Villas had decided
against him, and that there was no longer any
hope, and about the same time Creelman got
telegram from Bynum stating that his
name would be sent to the Senate to-day.
The news of the settlement of the much yexed
question was freely circulated about the hotel
Hobbies and other frequented resorts last night,
and formed the chief topic of conversation.
Mr.. Jones, the general sentiment was that
the rebuff given Indiana's member of the admin
istration was wellmerited one, and that the
decision in Bynums favor was entirely just. A
third telegram received from a prominent In
diana Democrat, now In Washington, by an
equally prominent member of the party in In
dianapolis. fully corroborates the others men
toned above, and it may therefore be considered
as settled beyond question that Creelman will
take the confectionery. Postmaster Wildmans
doubt take charge as soon as his commission can
be forwarded.
For the benefit of those who do not enjoy the
acquaintance of Mr. Creelman it should be stated
that he is Shelby county man, about thirty
five years old, who has been resident of Indian
apolis for about two years, and is at present a
trvelng salesman, in the employ Of Cleveland
tea firm
The following special telegram from Washing
ton, received by the Journal last night, will be
read with interest in this connection:
ut is the talk among Indanians around the
hotels tonight that ex-senator Mcdonald will
measure swords with Vice-president Hendricks
over the matter of federal Offices in Indiana.
Several times it has been stated that President
Cleveland consulted Mr.. Mcdonald while here
about the appointment Of postmaster at In
dianapols. 1t is conceded that Mcdonald has
more influence at the White House than Hen
bricks, if he chooses to use it. No one seems to
know who Mcdonald recommended, if indeed
he made recommendation; but it is believed
that the man who received his Endorsement will
be chosen. Many are predicting that there is an
other surprise in store, and that new man,
some who has not figured at all in this fight,
will be appointed. When the matter will be
settled no one seems to know. name is looked
for at the Senate daily, and yet the President
may wait until the excitement dies out before he
makes a nomination 1t is understood that Sec
rotary Villas sent the papers in the case to the
White House several days ago, and that they
were to come before the Cabinet If the Presi-
dents advisers have not been consulted they
probably will be at the regular Cabinet meeting

MINISTER'S MEETINGS.
The MethOdists Discuss the Work Of Bishor
Taylor-Dr. Hunters Essay.

at the meeting of the Methodist Ministers
Association, yesterday, Rev. s A. Bright pre-
sided and devotional exercises were conducted
by DR.. Neighbor of the North Baptist Church.
Quite little talk was had over the matter of
reports OF the discussions, growing out of the
fact that garbled and misleading, and actually
false reports were made of the sayings, es-
pecially Of the German preachers, in the discus
sion OF the dangerous classes. Bishop Tay-
lor's Work in Africa, the topic for the morning,
was opened by Dr. Mcconnell, pastor of Roberts
Park Church. Among other things he said:
/ Bishop Taylor has arrived at Monrovia, Liberia,
and on the evening of his arrival preached in one
OF the Methodist churches there; he proposes to
spend one month among the Liberian churches
after holding the Liberian conference His OBJ
jective point is some interior part of the great
heather continent. He mas sent his missionary
to this place by one route and he goes by an
other. Bishop Taylor is an enigma to me. He
believes he is under the guidance of the Spirit.
He is bishop Of Africa. with full power while in
Africa He came to the General Conference a
ayman local elder) and left it bishop of Africa.
Mr.. Hammond said he thought it would have
been better to have made William Taylor super
bishop. The tendency is to DIOCESAN epis-
copacy, and that would involve much change.
He deprecated the refusal to acknowledge Bishop
Taylor as full bishop. This is the thing in
Taylors way, and should be removed.
The fact was brought out that while everybody
had the utmost confidence in Taylor, yet he is a
conundrum to everybody.
On next Monday morning Rev. E. w. S. Ham
mond will submit paper on "Who is Response
BILE for Our Dangerous Classes" This will be
the last appearance of this gentleman before the
preachers meeting, as his term on the district
closes at the next session of the Lexington Con-
ference, meeting at Springfield, o., April 2
The question for two weeks is, 1.-THE Outlook
for the Final Triumph of the Gospel over the
Whole Earth" to be opened by Rev. DR..
Marine and Mr. HENS.
Rev. Mr.. Neighbour who was at one time a
missionary in India, gave some accounts of his
work in that country, by invitation He thought
that the experience of eighty years of mission
airy work is against the so-called self-supporting
PLAN. The meeting was adjourned with the
benediction by Rev. Franklin, of the Colored
Baptist Church.
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCHES
At the meeting of the Presbyterian ministers,
yesterday, the Rev. r. V. Hunter, pastor of the
Seventh Church. read critical essay on ]
Peter, iii; Is, 49, in which he undertook to
prove that there is no foundation in the passage
on which to base the doctrine of a second pro-
baton for those who die impentent. Mr. Hunter
was highly complimented by his ministerial
brethren for the yigor and critical acumen dis
played in his paper. The subject for discussion
next Monday will be: 1.-THE Attitude of Our
Churches toward the Education of our Youth
