REpUBLICANIsM IN VIRGINIA.
The Reception Accorded Sherman and For

The Reception Accorded Sherman and For
aker-A Promising Field.
Special to the INDIANAPOLIS journal.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-Republicans here are
very much delighted with the reception rendered
Senator Sherman, Governor elect Foraker, and
other Ohoans at their meetings in Virginia
last week. While they met some insolence and
in a few instances insults on the whole their re-
ception was that they and their friends
should be proud of. At a number of points they
reused such storm of enthusiasm that it
seemed as if the people had gone wild, and they
nearly wrung their arms off shaking hands with
them.
There is one thing that the reception of this
eminent champion of Repubicanism by the Vir-
ginians makes plain to all observers: That is
that the next great addition to the adherents of
Republican principles will be won on Southern
soil. The people down there seem to be abso-
lutely hungry to hear Republicanism preached
by Northern men, and just as they preach it in
the North. Republicans of all grades and
classes here see plainly that great mistake has
been made heretofore in not sending at least one
of their champions down there and giving the
people chance to know for themselves just
what Republicanism is, and what it proposes to
do. The speeches of Senator Sherman were en-
tirely different from what the people expected to
hear. They were much better and had much
better influence wherever delivered than was ex-
pected Senator Sherman says he had been
misrepresenred all through the State, and be-
lieves that he has contributed something to the
good of the party by going there.

The Exclusion of Ofce-Seekers from the
White House, and What 1t Means.
Bpecai to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3-There has been con-
slant howl about the White House since the
President issued his order prohibiting the ad-
mission of Office seekers Each morning, since
this order was promulgated, a crowd of Office
seekers has congregated at the White House and
insisted. severally and collectively, that they
should be admitted to the President and the
continuous refusal of Mr. Cleveland to see them
has been considered very great hardship
Amid the eursng of the men who have been
refused an audience at the White House. there
has been consideration of the object of
the President in showing them out The osten-
sible reason given out that the President desired
to devote his time to the completion of his
message To Con eress, is not received as the real
one for secluding himself from the public. 1t is
generally believed that the President fears that
he is to encounter a great deal of trouble in the
Senate this winter in securing confirmation of
his nominations, and that he has conceived the
idea that suspension of appointments for
awhile will palliate the ruled feelings of Repub-
lcan senator's; also, that the disgruntled Demo
cratic senators will be in a better frame of mind
to consider nomination. The body of Demo
cratic senators feel about as bad over their disap
pointment in nominations made as the Repub-
1cah senators in having their friends removed.
Another question seems to trouble the minds of
Democ-at statesmen, and that is how the Presi-
dent expects to make appointments in the future

MINOR MATTERS.

Increasing Lawyers Income by Mention
ing His Name for Office.
Special to the indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON Nov. 3.-"I never knew there
were so many lawyers in the country enjoying a
lucrative practice as have been compelled to
know during the past six months" observed a
Democratic congressman to-day. Whenever a
lawyer is spoken of for appointment" contin-
ued this statesman, ''his friends begin at once to
say that he could not accept political position,
because he has too large law practice. The
people of Wisconsin were not aware, for instance,
that Postmaster-generalV Villas was much of a
lawyer. or that he cut any figure in the legal
field there until he was spoken of for Post
master general. Then it was said that it would
be very great financial sacrifice for him to &C
cept the appointment; that he had practice
worth at least $40, 600 year. Now, as a matter
of fact don't suppose there are any two law.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 3.--Another large land
suit on an old Mexican grant is about to be
brought before the United States Court. The
suit will involve the title to large slice of this
city ard county. valued at not less than $780,
OOO, coo. The history of the claim is as follows:
While northern California was a province of
Mexico, Fernando Marclina was commissary
in the Mexican army. and in 1912 was REIN
bursed for supplies furnished the army by title
to league of land. The grant was triangular
in form, and was inclosed by line which takes
in the whole of the western addition and Hayes
valley, the cemeteries, and slice of Golden
Gate Park. 1t is claimed that full title was given
to Marchina in 1874 About 1850 Marchina sold
the grant to John K Moore, to whom he trans
ferred the original Mexican title Over twenty
years ago Moore began an ejectment suit in the
United States Court for possession of the land;
but the suit was dropped, and Moore and his
claim disappeared from public view. Recently
he emerged from his twenty years legal seclu-
sion, and engaged firm of attorneys to prose-
cute the claim more. The original title to
the land is safe in banking house vault in this
city and legal steps towards the recovery of the
land will be taken in few days.

Mayor Grace Not IMPLICATED.

New YORK. Nov. "a report was published
yesterday that warrants out for Mayor
Grace and others, accusing them of completely
in the frauds of Ward and Fish. United States
District Attorney Dorsheimer said: 1.-The story
is a fabrication, and is absolutely false. There
are no indictments, and none could be found be-
fore Thursday, as the United States grand jury
is not in session until that day. Warrants need
not wait for indictments. but so far as | know,
and so far as proceedings in the United States
court are concerned, there are warrants now
out Of course, can say nothing as to what
warrants will be issued or against what persons.
AS to Mayor Grace, no evidence has been offered
TO me to connect him in any criminal way with
the proceedings of Ward, or to show him guilty
of anything that might compel me to proceed
against him."
No such warrants are out in any proceeding
by the State of New York.

MRS. SHERMAN REPULSED.
The President Takes Very Little Stock in
Place Hunting Females.


1t would appear that Mrs. General Sherman
desires to extend her influence over this admin
istration. She is said to be as persistent an
ofice-seeker ever che was Mrs. Sherman's
latest movement has been to urge the appoint
ment of her brother. Hugh Ewing, of Lancaster,
Ohio, to position in the diplomatic corps. She
wanted him sent as minister to one of the Cath
Ole countries Of South America, on the ground
that he is devoted member of that church, but
neither the President nor Secretary Bayard con-
slider such reason sufficient in making appoint.
mentS.
Mrs. Sherman has been active in behalf of 9TH
ers besides her brother. but none of her candi-
dates have been selected SO far. The President
has been quite obstinate in his treatment Of
women who have sought appoin tments, as he
does not consider it consistent with the dignity
of true womanhood for them to come here on
such errands. Those who have written letters
have received respectful consideration. but those
who have come here have accomplished nothing
