pointed"
The president said to-day that he had moi
a. yet been able to consider the Augusts
Postmastership case, but that he would take
it up and decide it before the week was out.
The impression seems to be that Morton will
not be appointed, although the fact that his
is practically the only name before the pres
ident in connection with the Office, aud that
he 10 recommended by every prominent dem
ocrst in Maine except Ed. Wilson, may Sc
cure his appointment.
