Ex-Gov. CARROLL, OF MARYLAND, PRoTEsTs
AGAINST THE SENATOR'S ACTION-wHAT MR.
GORMAN SAYS.
Ex-Gov. John Lee Carroll, OF Maryland, ha,
given to the public letter which he addressed
to Senator German, on the 18th inst, expressing
his surprise and regret" that he had used his in
hnence to promote the appointment of Mr.
Higgins to an important position in the Treasury
department. mo one knows better than your
ably represents the type Of politician, that every
utterance of Mr.. Cleveland, both before and
since he became President, pledged himself and
knowing this, you have taken advantage Of thu
confidence which the men In power reposed in
you, to betray the administration in the outset
the promises which brought such hope to the
hearts Of all who believed that-in the words Of
the President-'public,ofi office Is public trust
Been paid Senator German, after the the
close Of the campaign in recognition
IF had bis every the to e h
sdm s . carry out the pro@. sR
and my regret and disappointment are great
high position to degrade TIE party which has
earnestly in sympathy with the best professions
of the President, deeply feel the Insult you
the United States"
Senator German said, in an interview yester-
day afternoon, that he had no answer to make
to ex-Gov. CAROLS letter at present, and that
he had been so much engrossed with the affairs
of his constituents and others that he had not
correspondence. In due course Of time,
and as ss he s would
upon me by the republican press" he said
"were perfectly natural, and not unexpected,
because 1t is we'll known that have been In
favor always of placing in position the men
who cooperate with and indicate q willingness
cisms from rivals are also to be expected. The
venom of those whom he has served, and who
still cry for more, no public man can hope To
escape. Iwould be very glad to talk longer but
the fact is that my whole time is occupied not
only with our friends in Maryland, but with
democrats from all sections of the Union. It Is
within bounds when say I am compelled to
receive al many visitors daily as 60 into any Of
the departments. Il is pleasant for me to know
entertain, that democrats, with Q due regard To
this government The working democratic
always receive from me more Consideration
than men Of greater pretensions who contribute
but little to the success Of the party"
WHAT Is SAID OF THE LETTER
The letter Of Ex-Governor Carroll, Of Mary.
land, to Senator German caused no little com
ment in political circles to-day. By some ii
was said that the letter was only feature Of
the warfare which some Of the Maryland demo

while Others thought that 1t would lead to an
official inquiry into the standing Of Appoint
