WASHINGTON, August 28.-The Presiden
mas decided to reappoint julius Stahel a
Sonsul General to Shanghai, China. Mr.
otanel Is now in Washington on a leave O
absence. he has served in the consula,
service in China for ten or twelve years.
| IL ls stated at the Treasury Department,
that A, Wilson Norris, late pension agen,
| at rhiadelphia. is causing the accounting
| omcers OF that department no little trouble
because Of his failure to forward his
accounts for the month of June last. Mr.
Morris was removed on July 7th. and
according to the Treasurer's report had un
TO June lst failed to account for money
advanced amounting to $167 lit. judge
Williams, Third Auditor of the Treasury.
has several times requested him to for.
ward his accounts for examination, but SO
far Mr. Morris has not taken the slightest
notice OF his letters. In making his last
formal request the Third Auditor, called
Norris attention to sections 3622 and
549l OF the revised statutes, which require
that all officers who have public funds for
disbursement shall render monthly account
within ten days after the expiration of
each successive month, and provide that
officers who fail to comply with this re-
quirement shall be deemed guilty of en-
bezzlement. This letter, it is said, has
produced no better effect than 'its pre-
decessors, and the department officials are
IN somewhat OF quandary as to how to
proceed. There are no charges against the
official integrity of Mr.. Morris.
THE cArTLEMEN.
Only four days remain of forty allowed
by the Presidents proclamation for the re-
moval of cattle and cattlemen from the
Indian Territory. The War Department
was informed to-day that no preparations
have been made for expediting the de-
parture OF the cattlemen as all concerned
are fully posted with orders that the cattle
men will move out of the Territory in good
faith, and with all the expedition possible
Reports have been received at army head
quarters that one OF the principal lessees
has already removed his entire herd beyond
the boundaries of the Indian Territory, and
that all the Others appear to be moving
as rapidly as possible.
KELLEY CASE.
Mr.. Keiley's appointment to the public
service was first solicited by himself. He
was endorsed by the entire Virginia delega-
5ion. The President appointed him as
to Italy. That Government sent
, protest to the authorities here against
'he appointment. because OF his speech d
number OF years ago at Richmond, Va,
against Victor Emmanuel. After the pre-
OF the protest, Mr.. Kelley vOlun- |
arily resigned, saying that he did not wish !
% embarrass the administration. He |
vas then appointed Minister to |
'ienna. Within two days after the |
appointment was announced the Austrian |
minister in this city intimated that it
'ould be disagreable to Mr.. and Mrs. Kelley
{ live in Vienna because the latter was !
ewess. Secretary Bayard sent a commun-
;ation to the foreign representative, in
'hich he spoke only of the complaint
gainst Kelley. The eletter was earnest and
ignified, taking the ground that would
aturally be taken against such a COM
laint. Afterwards came cablegram
ON Mr.. Lee, Charge d. Afaires at
Jenna, saying that the Austrian
overnment had refused to receive Kelley
nd had declined to give any reason for it's
ction. No intimation of the cause has
zen received here. There is a suspicion,
owever, that the Italian Minister to
Jenna is the direct cause of the Austrian
final action. The question
neither or not some one shall be appointed
, United States Minister to Austria has
zen considered by neither the President or
e Secretary of State since the refusal of
lstria to receive Mr.. Kelley.
