WASHINGTON, April ga few days ago
Mr.. McHenry, a prominent southern DEM
ocrat, told local evening paper about the
loud complaints against the administration
he had heard in New York, where he had
been spending some time. Mr.. John
TreanOr of New York, who was associated
with the National committee in the late
campaign, thinks that Mr.. McHenry has
spoken from very insufficient information.
He arrived in town to-day and says:
Il have mingled with the leading men Of
several factions of New York and there is
almost unanimity of expression in favor of
the administration. have talked with the
most prominent Tammany men. I have
had numerous conversations with Sheriff
Davidson, who represents Irving hall, and
1 have heard the county De-
mocracy leaders express themselves.
All of them are delighted with
the conduct of the administration so
far. There is more harmony, more cordial
party feeling within the Democratic party
of New York now than ever, and it is all
due to the good sense of the president and
his cabinet Why, the administration is
but eight weeks old, and our folks have
not expected that within that short
time everything could be done.
I give you my word there is no dissatisfac-
ton among New York Democrats. I have
heard more criticism of the administration
the few hours I've been in Washington,
from men who are disappointed about Office,
than has been uttered by all the Democracy
of New York. Our people think the ad-
ministration is doing just right.

save the country over one million dol
lars year, the matter has been brought

every year, but nothing has been done
to test the fluid. With other documents
sent to the general Office was certifi-
cate from two old and respectable chem
lists at Philadelphia certifying that they
had tried everything in the way of
chemical reagents to restore the cancel
led stamps but could not succeed in do
ing SO. Now over eight millions of dol
lars have been lost to the country for
want of proper cancelling fluid, since
