crowds to the White House daily,
and Mr.. Cleveland's hand shaking re-
ceptions, which occur every other
day, are attended by hundreds. Miss
Cleveland's receptions throughout the
season were very largely attended.
Some of them were such brushes that
the crowd was, at times, admitted
three or four abreastand extra guards
were employed to keep the people in
order.
Curious incidents have occurred on
some of these occasions. For instance,
a White House usher was assaulted
by two women because he would not
admit them fast enough. They were
tall, muscular women, and bruised
the man badly. 1t was the intention
to arrest the offenders, and they were
pointed out to a policeman, but on
second thought the matter was allow
ed to pass.

Senator jackson Succeeds Baxter.

On Monday the President sent to
the Senate the name of Senator How
ell E. Jackson, to be United States
Circuit Judge to succeed Judge BaX-
ter, deceased. The Senate immedi-
ately went into executive session and
the appointment was unanimously
confirmed without reference to a
committee. Mr.. jackson resigned
his seat in the Senate on Tuesday, and
is to return to Nashville this week.
He will sit as Judge in the Federal
Court which meets at Nashville next
Monday.
The American has this to say edi-
torially of the appointment:
"The appointment of Senator How
ell E. Jackson to fill the place made
vacant by the death of Judge Baxter
will give general satisfaction, Sena-
tor Jackson is a man of unquestioned
character and ability as lawyer,
ranking with the very best in the
State. He has clear, judicial mind,
and has made much character in the
Senate in the legal discussions in that
body in which he has participated.
He has served twice on the Supreme
Bench of the State, by appointment,
and was once candidate before the
nominating convention for Supreme
Judge, and very narrowly failed tC
secure the nomination. He will fill
the position with honor to himself
and credit to the country.

Congressional Library.

The bill providing for the erection
of a tire-proof building for the accom-
mediation of the library of Congress
has been passed by both Houses, and
now awaits only the signature of the
President to become q law. The
building will, when completed, have
cost about So, 100000. twill be erect
ed upon the square between LIST and
ID streets, directly east of the Capitol.
The bill is the same that has passed
the Senate several times, and has been
reported favorably to the House in
every Congress. Mr.. Singleton has
been very energetic in his efforts to
secure the passage of the bill.

Washington Letter.

To the Standard.
1t is to be hoped the creditable
work done by Congress during the
week is an earnest of what is to fol-
low for the next threemonths. When
the Senate voted to erect a building
for the library of Congress without
one dissenting voice, the Senators
were so much gratified that many Of
them were seen to smile.
Thirteen Democratic Senators voted
against the admission of Washington
Territory as a State, after paying the
female voters out there a good deal
of attention. Senator Eustis feared
that when women became U. S. Sena-
tors they would tell all the secrets
connected with the executive sessions.
Senator Beck held that the women
would never be old enough to come
within the constitutional limitations
as to age.
The newly appointed Senator from
California, Mr.. Hearst, was escorted
to the Capitol by his millionaire COL
league, Stanford. After being sworn
in, he took his seat on the Democrat
ic side, and cast his first vote against
the admission of Washington Terri
tory. Mr.. Hearst makes another adj
dition to the already long list of rich
men in the Senate. His daily income
is said to be about 81 200. He has
been represented by his enemies as
simply man Of money, though there
are probably few men who depend
less on wealth and position than he.
He sunk a good deal of his money in
order to give the Democrats of his
State the San Francisco Examiner, a
daily paper in sympathy with their
views. His only son has chosen jour
nalism as his profession. After IA
miliarizing himself with the details
by beginning at the bottom of the
ladder, he expects to take charge OF
his fathers paper.
The House of Representatives also
voted for the Congressional Library
voted to pension the Mexican vete
rams, all that is left of them, and be-
sides passing half a dozen bills O
more or less importance, defeated the
Bland bill for the unlimited coinage
Of silver. That probably settles the
silver agitation for the remainder O
the session, leaving the question
where it was at the beginning of thu
winter.
An employe Of the Government
Printing Office surprised me by say
ing the demand for speeches on tn,
silver question for campaign purpose
was greater than for those on pOliti
cal subjects. The largest order re
ceived this session by the Publi
Printer was for VIM. l.. SCOTS speed
in support of a compromise on tn
silver question. Mr.. Scott is from
Pennsylvania, he is a Democrat, i
the wealthiest man in the Lowe
House, and has been mentioned as
possible successor to the sick Score
tary of the Treasury. The mex
largest order was for Senator Beck
notable speech on silver, which ha
been called for by both parties.
Despite the fact that the Presiden
has been warned by physicians sine
Secretary Manning was stricken
down, he takes no more rest, recrea
ton, or exercise than before, bu
