near. Alas, would he had been pulling
at my gown, scattering spool- and scissors
in boyish mischief, But his eyes were on
the fire, which, in concession to his inya-
lidism, langushed on the hearth though
it was a warm day in early Spring, and
there he sat softly wrapped about in his

talked and been talked to about the case
by number Of the best lawyers
10 both the Senate and the
House, and the universal opinion is
that it is not only one OF the most impor-
tant cases that has ever been before the
Supreme Court, but it is one in which all
the States are deeply interested, and that
the State of West Virginia would have
been reereant to have allowed the Com

have captured her citizens without making
every effeIt to have reclaimed them.

PHELPS THE MAN.
A Belief That He VIII be Chief Justice
Walte,k Successor.

Nhte'e successor.
NEW YORK, April 2O.-A Washington
special to the Tribune says: Nothing has
taken place in the last twenty-four hours
which would furnish any indication that
the President hsd changed his mind in re-
gard to the appointment of E. J. Phelps
to the Chief Justiceship, through strong
pressure, it is understood, has been brought
to bear upon him By Democratic Senators
on the ground that Mr.. Phelps appoint
ment would be very distasteful to the Irish
vote.
Previous experience has shown that the
President pays bnt little attention to such
protests. On the contrary, they are apt to
confirm him in his determination. The
Democratic Senators urge their objections
to Mr.. Phelps appointment not because
they doubt his capacity or Democracy, but
because he is supposed to have incurred
the bitter animoaty of Irishmen, and be-
cause they are supposed to regard him as
the very incarnation Of English anti-lrish
sentiment.
III tuc OpluiOui Va thOoO "ho ho'S P'N
sumed to adyise sshe President regarding
this appointment. it would jeopardize the
Democratic party's success next fall to ap'
point Mr. Phelps. They have urged the
President to consider this phase OF the
question with calmuess. Incidentally, OF
course, they have also urged their opposi-
ton TO Mr.. Phelps Oil the ground that he
is too old There is good reason to believe,
however, that Mr.. Phelps would be con-
firmed by the Senate Notwithstanding the
resolution adopted some years ago by the
Judiciary Committee not TO confirm any
nominee ADORE the age of sixty.
The President probably admits the
paucity of material from which to choose
Chief Justice il he is TO cOnfne himself to
his own party. The idea of promoting
one of the Associate Justices Is believed to
have been abandoned, il, indeed, it was
ever seriously considered by Mr. Cleve'
land.
Mr.. Phelps called at the White House
last evening. During his stay in the city
he will be the guest OF Mr. Bayard.
