How the Great Reform President Will Help
the Party in Ohio.

Special to the Philadelphia Press.
Governor Hoadly, of Ohio, visited Washington
early in the week to accept, on behalf of the
Buckeye State, the statue Of Garfield, that has
been placed in Memorial Hall, at the Capitol
He called upon the President twice, and TWICE
had frank talk with him about Ohio politics.
According to a gentleman who is we'll posted
in Ohio politics, when the Governor first visited
the White House Mr.. Cleveland asked him how
the Ohio Democrats were pleased with the ad
ministraton, and was told that after nearly
four months of waiting for the Offices, mutter-
ingS Of discomfort had changed to loud com
plants. The situation was such now Governor
Hoadly said and there was but poor prospect
for the Democratic party to carry the State
unless the administration should make new
departure in the matter of filing the offices.
The President asked Mr. Hoajly what he had
to suggest The Governor replied that he be
leved it would be advisable to give a good office
to Peter Clark one of the leading colored men
of the State, as this appointment would probably
bring hundreds of colored votes to the Demo
cratic party, especially as Judge Foraker, the
Republican candidate for Governor had opposed
in a speech the establishment of mixed schools.
Secondly, the Governor is reported to have said
that unless Republican postmasters were re-
moved more promptly and their places filed by
Democrats it would be impossible to arouse the
Buckeye Democrats to any enthusiasm in the
State contest
The President answered that there would be
no trouble about giving Mr.. Clark an office but
that he could not change his policy of making
no removals of postmasters without cause The
Governor then, in answer to direct question
from the President. said that he should not be
candidate for reelection, as he did not think the
party without active aid from the administra-
ton could win.
Before his departure the Governor again
called upon Mr.. Cleveland, and the subject of
their former conversation was renewed. Mr.
Cleveland then told Mr.. Hoadly that he had
decided to push the appointment of Ohio post
nd I
is believed he used other arguments that caused
the Governor to reconsider his determination
not to be again a candidate against Mr. Foraker.

This was too much for the Pope's self control;

When the viands had been disposed Of Mr..
Field addressed his guests. He said, in review
ing the history of the United States. that the
work of freedom which had been begun by
Washington had been completed by Lincoln. He
proposed the health of President Cleveland, and
coupled with the toast the names of Mr.. Phelps
and the Duke of Argyll.
Mr.. Phelps replied that he had never before
been present at such a significant and gratifying
celebration. What was once the cause of hos

Both nations used to be cousins

them that their interests identical.
The history of England was the property of the
United States as well of England The
untold future was matter of equal concern to
both.
The Duke of Argyll made felicitous response.

Mr. Field received the following telegram from
President Cleveland in reply to his cablegram

rejoice in the success and prosperity of our

this man. became very anxious during the latter
part Of his term to get Grant out of the country.
He saw that he could not manipulate him to suit
his desires, and thought that if he out of
the way and Sherman was at the head of the
army he would DE more likely to control matters
as events might occur He got it into his head
that he would send Grant on diplomatic mission
toMexco. With this in view he called the General
to come to the White House, and there told him he
wanted him to go to Mexico. Gen. Grant at once
saw through the scheme and declined to go.
Johnson insisted, but Grant continued to de-
cline, and finally sent declnation to the Presi
dent in writing. Shortly after this the story
goes, Grant was summoned to Cabinet meet
ing. When he arrived his instructions as
ambassador to Mexico shown him. They
were printed, and were read aloud by the Secre
tary of State as though he had accepted instead
OF declined the mission. Grant at once, and In

Texas:
My Dear Sirs: For the past week
there has been an armed body OF men
in Harrison county, who have inter.
fered with and stopped the running of
trains upon the Texas and Pacific rail-
way, except the regular mail trains,
aud who have by force prevented the
employees of said road from performing
their usual duties In the operation OF
the road, and who are now thre aten.
ing to continue their unlawful
Inference with the train and other
property, going 30 far as to declare
that no freight trains will be allowed
to run, and that no work shall be done
in the shops of the company until
such time as the company shall com
ply with their demands for redress OF
certain actual or supposed grievance
of which they complain. Already the
company has been subjected TO great
loss In the delay of freight and in dam
age to fruit In transit over the road,
and each day that this condition of
things is allowed to remain
adds largely TO the loss of the compa-
ny as well as to the entire country
tributary to the road. The authorities
OF the company have foreborne to
complain in the hope that the sober
second thought would bring wiser
counsel, but forbearsnce has not re-
suited as hoped for This company
has large amount of valuable prop.
erty In Harrison county upon which
1t pays taxes equal in amount to one
fourth OF the entire sum paid by the
county, and In return it has right to
the same protection in It's property rs
any other citizen. The company has
discharged a large body of workmen
from its service, and fears are enter
tanned that they will do injury to the
buildings, roadway, machinery and
CARS of the company. / am therefore
instructed by the management
of the road to call your
attention to this unfortunate
state OF affairs, and TO ask of you to
take such measu res as you may think
necessary TO protect the property OF
the company from injury and to pre-
vent further interference with the use
of its machinery or the running of It's
trains. Otherwise the company will
claim from the county of Harrison
such damages rs may result. Respect.
fully yours, WARDER CUMMINGS,
