WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Certain APP
continents made by Mr.. Cleveland have
created great dissatisfaction. This is only
natural, since the Offices were hotly sought
for by influential members of the Demo-
cratic party. 1t was supposed. however,
that with the appointment of one or the
other candidates the luminosity which char
acteriZed the contest for it would cease.
Since congress convened, however, certain
members not willing TO abide by the pTesi-
dents decision against them in square
fight for patronage, have gone secretly to
Republican senators and supplied them
with all the facts in their possession which
might assist in defeating the confirmation
of the officeholders whose appointments
they opposed. These facts have come to
the ears of the president recently, and he is
understood to be very much displeased. In
fact, he is said to have little list of
Democratic congressman who have been
furnishing ammunition TO the enemy, and
the gentlemen who figure on it may look
for no more favors from this adminlstra-

WILMINGTON, Del, Jan. 12.-The snow
Of last Friday was to-day the immediate
cause Of the most sensational tragedy that
has occurred in this part Of Delaware for
many years. \ small country road running
OFF the turnpike. three miles north of
Wilmington, became blockaded and i'm
passable. AS is the custom in the country,
the bars of a wheat field belonging 10
Isaac ). Talley, young farmer, were let
down, and a temporary passage made
through that field and two pasture fields TO
the pike, a distance Of half a mile. All
the neighbOrs west of Talley were CON-
PEELED to use that route to get to the pike,
among them John w. Handy, young cattle
dealer, living close TO Talley, aud between
whom and Talley there had been bad blood
since last march. at that time. Handy. who
was Of quarrelsome and pugilistic nature,
whipped Talley and his father. repeating
the chastisement upon Isaac few weeks
later in the streets OF this city. Yesterday
Handy and Talley had dispute. the latter
having forbidden the former TO pass through
his wheat field. telling him that another
passage had been opened through the ad-
joining pasture field. Handy said he would
use the field this morning if he had to
CHOP DOWN
both the fence and Talley. They parted in
anger. This morning at 5 o'clock TalIey
left his house with a small colored boy and
built brush fire near the entrance to the
disputed field. the boy keeping the fire
going. About 6:30 o'clock Handy, on his
way to the railroad station. drove up in a
Dearborn wagon with load of calves, in
which was gun and axe. He stopped his
wagon and jumped out, with his gun
in one hand and heavy hick-
OrY gambrel in the other. saying
that he would kill Talley if
he had TO TO get through the field. Talley,
armed with a cedar club, ordered Handy
back, but was quickly made helpless by
having his head horribly beaten with the
gambrel. As he sank TO his knees Handy
snapped his gun, and was trying TO shoot a
second time. when the weapon was taken
from him by his father. who tearing trouble
had followed the son unknown to the lat
ter. AT that instant Talley fired a pistol
he pulled from his pocket, and Handy fell
dead with ball in his heart. Talley then
fired a second shot. Mrs. Talley then APP
peared aud her bleeding husband said:
They tried to kill me-" and became I'M
conscious. Hanby's body was taken home
and Talley taken TO his home, where he
still lies unconscious. He will probably
die, but if he RECEIVERS will be arrested.
Talley is much liked by his neighbors.

FIRE ISLAND, y. Y. Jan. u The British
steamer HyltOn Castle, from New York,
Jan. Q, for Rouen. foundered fifteen miles
south Of Fire Island light yesterday. One
boat, in charge of the first mate. with a
crew OF nine men, effected landing five
miles east of here. The second boat, with
a crew Of ten men. under command of the
captain, left the steamer at the same time.
When last seen all but three of the oars
had been broken. 1t is thought that they
will probably reach the beach at some
point further east. No story of the wreck
has as yet been obtained from the sur
vivOrs. but will probably be told tonight.
The steamer evidently went down in deep
water. as no sign of her masts can be seen
with glass from the lighthouse here. The
sea is light. and the wind is not blowing
very hard, and this gives rise TO the hope
that, if Capt. Colvin and his boats are
aiioat, they will reach the shore during the
day.

THE AUGMENTATION WEARY.

ate's Inquiries on Appointments.

ate,s Inquiries on Appointments.
Spec al to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-The admin
istr alton party is beginning to chafe under
the persistent fights made on the presidents
appointments in the senate. At first there
was a disposition to give the Republican
party full swing, furnishing it all the dOcu-
mentS it wanted and all information about
the men removed and those appointed.
This was very funny for little while, but
pretty soon there began to be friction and
party feeling, and the Democrats, both in
the senate and in the cabinet, are getting
their blood up. The Democratic senators
are beginning to draw the lines as closely
as possible. and the cabinet. it is said, is be-
ginning 10 act on the defensive. The post
master general has already forwarded to the
p0StOf1ice committee a large bundle of
papers bearing upon suspended cases, but it
is said will not send any more until
there has been a consultation over the
matter in the cabinet. While the pres
ident has no disposition to make fight
over the matter, or resist the senate
in its attempt to discover facts, he will
probably insist that all of these inquiries
shall COME to him in regular manner
Some of the senate committees have made
q mistake in this respect. The finance
committee has called for the treason" for
certain suspensions. and some of the others
have done the same. Mr.. Edmunds, who
is always careful to observe these little
points Of official etiquette, has simply
asked, in the name of his committee, for
'such info nation as may be in the posses
sion of the attorney general regarding the
official conduct and the removal of certain
men," The committee on commerce has
simply directed its clerk to make the in
quiry. and the circulars have gone out over
his signature. The most serious mistake,
however, vas to address the circular of in
guiry to the 'eads of departments. They
have no right,to furnish congress with ex-
plantations of the presidents acts.

To Overhaul the Treasury.
Special to the Globe.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-There is TO be
a thorough and systematic overhauling of
the treasury department. The committee
recently appointed to examine into its work
ings will. it is said, be expected to take its
time in the matter. 1t is even announced
that examination may require as much as a
couple of years time. and will extend back
over the period from the issue of the first
bonds during the war down TO the present
time. This has more the appearance of a
political move than anything this admins
tration has done since it has taken posses
sion of the Office. A prOperly-organiz
committee and expert accountants and
politicians managing it could make up
within the next two years a statement in
regard to the management of the treasury
which would be very valuable in the next
presidential campaign. Figures wont lie,
it is said, but in the hands of expert
maniDulators it is easy to make them prove
ANYTHING they want while it is equally
dithcult to show to the non-expert the
fallacies of complex statement upon q
subject OF this complicated character.

PITTsBURG, Jan. 12.-Milton Weston,

Weston's brother, n. W. Weston. The trio
came direct from New York, arriving in the
city at IL o'clock. On arriving at the depot
the party took a carriage and was driven
directly to the hotel, where they were
assigned rooms. Mr.. Weston was not at
home to reporters and refused to see any OF
the fraternity. His brother, n. w. Yves
ton, said:
Milton is feeling a little indisposed, which
| is natural under the circumstances. He Is
now in the last scene of the drama, If such it
may be called, and tomorrow comes the de-
nouement. de feels the situation keenly,
but feels that he is the victim of circum-
stances. entirely unexpected and unwar-
ranted by him. He feels that he is innocent,
but prosecuted because of his misfortune.
He is
as reported. He has interests that, IL looked
after and cared for, may be worth consider
able money. His great fault has always been
that he was too charitable. He had open
open hands for every sufferer. Now that he
is called upon to undergo punishment, he has
hosts of friends willing to do anything to
make his burdens light. Yes. sir; he is ready
TO take his punishment and tomorrow he
will give himself over TO the authorities.
That story about his having fed 10 South
! America was q most ridiculous canard. He
has no thought of running away. He will
bear his punishment cheertully. believing he
it innocent. His wife feels the rebuke
severely, and on her account the burden
seems heavier to my brother. She is such a
| sympathetic. tender-hcarted creature that IL
is almost like death itself to be separated
| from such a woman.
Mr.. Weston will remain at the hotel I'M
til tomorrow, when he will release his bail
and give himself over to the authorities.
