Connecticut AspirRnt Traces His Pa
pers With Singular Result.
WASHINGTON, Aug. IL. H. Walker,
of Connecticut, filed his application for
appointment as a post office inspector,
and forwarded strong endorsements
from prominent men in his State. He
came to Washington a few days ago to
see bout the matter, and was surprised
and annoyed to learn that his papers were
not on file. Some one suggested that they
might have been mixed with applications
for postmasterships. Mr. Walker went
TO the office of the First Assistant Post
master General and continued his search.
1t resulted in finding not only his papers
but also that he had been appointed Post
master at West Brook, Conn, a fourth
class Office and one TOR which he was not
an applicant.

How II Came About.

WAsmNGToS. May 2s.-The appointment
of John b. Molony, of Detroit, as collector
OF internal revenue for the first Michigan
district, vice John III. Stone, removed. Gre
ated but little surprise in the Michigan col
Ony here. Malony's appointment was urged
on the President by A. Z. Swineford and other
Michigan Democrats, but was opposed by Mr.
Maybury. who labored for Mr.. Goebel.
When II was discovered, however, that G'Oe-
bel had simply transferred his brewery to
his wife 10 make himself eligible for the
appointment, the President struck his
name from the list Since then II has
been conceded among those closely
0atching the contest that MolOney would
be spgOiuted. This. of course, IL another
blow At the Michigan Congressional dele
CATION and their mutual benefit plan.
Molony j. n cousin OF Don NJ. Dickinson :
wife. and for this reason Mr.. Dickinson re-
fused to indorse his application, believing
that Il would place him in a false position.
IL was represented to Mr.. Cleveland, how
ever. that MOlOny's appointment would be
very gratifying to Mr.. Dickinson, and IL IL
probable that this influenced the President
in MoloDys favor.

within two weeks past W. b. Wilson had a
decided lead for the appointment. The Wig

offers of a bribe, if he would vote for the

him S25 upon one occasion and $40 upon
another, # he would vote TO confirm Suili-

teaching music; that he has been home but
once during the year past, and that last
August, when he remained but one week.

take, as he knows him, his son and his family
