WllLlNG TO RETIRE.
It Is Said that Lord SaGkvilIc has Requested
Salisbury to Recall Hin.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 2S.-The
Standardization letter continues to
be almost the only gossip here, aud there
is little prospects OF its dying away be-
fore the election, when, ii the Republi.
cans be successful, mild little Lord Sack.
vile and the mysterious Murchison
will get all the credit, and Blaine's elo.
quence and the management OF Senator
Quay, the little Napoleon OF the situa-
tion, will be set at naught.
There is nothing new in the interna-
tiOnal phase OF the complication, except
n veriticatlon of what was mere rumor
last evening, that a full statement Of the
matter had been sent to the Government
through Minister Phelps. Secretary Bay
ard virtually admitted this to, day, pre-
Vious to his departure for Washington.
1t is thought to be Qnite certain that
Lord Sackviile will be promptly recalled,
us under the circumstances there could
not possibly be further cordial commu-
nication between him and the State de.
partment.
But no matter what action may be
taken, it is claimed that nothing can be
done to recall the damage that has been
wrought by the British Minister'S official
recognition OF the fact that for English
purposes Cleveland would be much pre-.
lerable to Harrison as President.
In fact, it is the general opinion that
the recall Of the Minister will but make
the political situation worse for the
Democrats, as it will be assumed by the
Republicans that the act OF the British
Government is prompted by particular
desire to please the Democratic admin
istIation.
Lord sackyille talks very feebly in re-
gard 10 the situation. He expects and
desires his recall. He does not feel in
any way disgraced by the affair, but
does not conceal his contempt for onein
diplomatic position who could express
himself rs Secretary Bayard did in his
recent interview, aud for those who on
account OF ticklish political situation,
could magnify so small molehill into so
huge mountain. He has cabled to his
Government q request for his return, or
transfer to another post.
