Al SENSATIONAL rumor is gaining
credence among the distributors of of
fee under Presidend Cleveland, which
is causing some alarm to spoilsmeD.
The rumor has it that the President
has decided to appoint Miss Mary
Fl. Carroll postmistress of Baltimore
city, in place of Col Adreon. Miss
Carroll is sister of Miss Anna Ella
Carroll who planned the Tennessee
campaign by which the backbone of
the confederacy was broken Miss
Anna is bedridden aud has never re-
ceived recognition or compensation
for her great services to the nation,
and, it is said, that the President has
decided to aid her in her helplessness
by appointing her sister, who is a
lady Of much culture and possesses
thorough business qualifications
There is no law prohibiting Miss
Carroll from receiving the appoint
ment, provided she takes up her abode
within the delivery Of the mails com.
ing to the Office, before she enters up.
on her duties.
This may all be joke, hoax, or
what you wilI-but our level headed
President does some things out of the
common order, when be takes no
ton, and often disregards the pres
sure that is brought upon him by
those who think they have the right
to distribute Office to their henchmen.
When hard pressed by the friends of
rival candidates for an appointment,
he declines to decide upon the merits
of either, and advises new man up
on whom more harmonious feeling
can be secured. He meets all respon.
sibilities that properly attach to him,
with promptness and fearlessness, but
is unwilling to shoulder those of 9TH

publican postmaster cf New York
city, has satisfied the most skepticaI
that Mr.. Cleveland is moved neither
By fear, favor, nor affection in doing

Glass Blowers Meeting.


There was a meeting of citizens last
night at the Assembly Rooms, the
object of which was to consider the
feasibility of starting a factory at or
near Annapolis for the manufacture
of glass Two practical glass blow
ers, Messrs. Bland and Kelly, Of Bal
timore, were present and gave practi-
cal assistance to the enterprise The
latter explained that Annapolis had
peculiar advantages for the manufac.
ture of glass and gave some idea Of
the workings of glass factory. He
and his partner, Mr.. Bland, he said,
had a small capitol which they had
accumulated from hard earned toll,
and they were so encouraged with
the belief that the thing would be
success that they were willing to in.
vest large portion of it in the enter
prise. Mr.. Kelly also pointed ont
the many advantages Annapolis had
over other cities that manufacture
glass, and though he did not consider
it policy to divulge the secrets of the
trade, said the investors In the enter.
prise could count on between 80 and
40 per cent. profit from the Annapo.
lis factory. Mr.. j. Writ Randall also
addressed the meeting, setting forth
at some length the many advantages
that Annapolis would derive from
the establishment of such an institu.
tion in our midst
There was large attendance at the
meeting, and those present took hold
of the project with view that spoke
well for its success. Mayor Claude
presided, and James M. League was
appointed secretary. 1t is proposed
to form a joint stock company, and to
work the concern as economical as
possible. At first only glass bottles
will be manufactured, they bring the
earliest products. 1t is stated that
operations can begin on q small scale
at $1,000. Shares were placed at IS
each. and some 90 were subscribed
for last Dight. Several sites for the
proposed factory are under considera-
ton. The two Baltimore glass blow
ers considered Mr.. G. j. Murphy's
place, on Horn Point, the most eligi-
BILE location, but it has not been de-
cided on. Rev. w. s. Southgate
