Robert Garrett at Louisville.

LOUISVILLE. Ky, March 11.--Mr. Robert
Garrett arrived in the city last evening.
He and his physician, Dr. Jacob. were play
ing billiards in the Gait House billiard
room this morning. Mr.. Garrett had just
run fifteen and missed when reporter en-
tered the room. The ex-president of the b.
X o. Is looking quite himself again. He is
more tleshy than he was three years ago,
and his hair and beard are much grayer.
His face in repose is heavier, and there are
lines under the eyes that make the counte-
nance dull, but when Mr.. Garrett speaks
his face brightens and hes talks with an
imation. His smile is ready and agreeable.
If there is still anything the matter with
his mind it does not show in his manner or
conversation. He told reporter that he
was on his way to the city of Mexico for
his health. He had abanded all business,
and this trip is purely for his own pleas
ure- He is accompanied H. his family,
and the party travels in two private cars.
Mr.. Garrett charted with the reporter on
indifferent subjects, but declined to speak
of any business matters. He left for the
South this afternoon.

WHEELING, w. Va, March 1.-THE re-
quest from the President for United States
District Attorney Watts's resignation was
the absorbing topic of conversation In po-
litical circles yesterday and to-day. ltwas
rumored that Watts sent very saucy re-
ply to Attorney general Miller. but 1T was
not until late this afternoon that a copy of
it was procured. This evening Watts con-
sented to an interview, but had scarcely
begun the conversation when messenger
bov entered the room with a message from
Washington, signed by Senator kenna,
which read as follows:
Much interest is taken here in your case, and
everything possible will be done for you. Await
Watts opened the telegram, read it over
rapidly to the reporter, and politely de-
clined to proceed with the interview. He,
however, furnished the following copy of
the telegram he sent to Attorney general
Miller i'll response to the request for his
resignation:
Sr--Your telegram, by direction of the Presi-
dent, requesting my resignation of the Office of
United States Attorney for the district OF West
Virginia, has been received know of no act of
mine, either official or otherwise, which, in the
absence of cause being assigned, would justify
me, under existing circumstances, in rendering
| my resignation. therefore respectfully decline
| to make such resignation, and If the President
| wants tn vacate the office of United States At
torney without cause being assigned, let him
assert his prerogatiye. G. G. WATTS,
United States Attorney.
The Republicans here are delighted to
| know that the days of Watts's official life
| are numbered. He has been a party to the
| Democratic conspiracy to steal this State.
and has used his office to that end. His
extreme partisanship in the discharge OF
his duties has rendered him particularly
| obnoxious

PITTsBURG. March 1.-THE coal and COX >
operators are worked up over bill which
has been introduced in the State Legisla-
ture, entitled "An act to promote the safety
of persons employed in and about coal
mines" 1t provides for the appointment of
a commission of five men who shall decide
upon q system of mechanical apparatus for
the detection of explosive gas in mines.
The bill, it is said, is being pushed in the
interest of q corporation, the owner of the
only apparatus which can be used under
the terms of the bill. The cost of putting
in this apparatus would average $4,000, at
a low estimate, for each of the 500 mines in
the State-a total of IS 600 900. and the cost
of extra men to keep it in order would be at
least $1,000 per mine, or S1.600000 Re-
monstrances are being circulated protest
in against the passage of the bill.

The Presidents Civii-service Policy.

CLEVELAND, o., March 1.-THE Leaders
Washington correspondent telegraphs his
paper tonight the following. with the as
surance that the information is correct:
President Harrison has already mapped
out policy Cor his administration to fol-
low respecting civil-service reform. and in
addition to what he had to say on the SUBJ
ject in his inaugural address, the following
points from an interview had with him by
a party of Congressman who called on him
are significant and interesting. The Wis.,
itors had presented the claims of certain
individuals of their choice for appoint
ments.
Il have" said the President, determined
to live up TO the plank relating thereto in
the Republican national platform. and
shall select men TO fill the offices from
among the Republicans of the Territories
themselves, where tit personsmay be found.
In Alaska there are no party organizations
and no public press, which makes it neces-
sary that the Governor of that Territory
should be man of such high character as
not to need such supervision as officials in
other Territories are subjected to because
of the existence of political parties and the
printing of newspapers. / shall endeavor,
for this particular Territory. 10 find a man
who Will not need any such spur TO do his
duty"
The attention of theIPresident was called
to the inefficiency exhibited IN the railway
mail service because of the discharge OF
old and tried employees TO make room for
Democratic henchmen whom the late ad-
ministration endeavored 10 protect by pro-
mitigating an order placing the service un-
der the provisions OF the civil service rule.
II shan't revoke that order" said the
President emphatieally, but shall modi-
fy II somewhat This remark he repeated.

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Senator Palmer
does not desire the Office TO which he has
been appointed, and will decline; Mr..
Swift, of California, who is sent to
Japan, has no particular claim upon
the administration, and Mr.. Wash
burn. of Massachusetts, who is given the
Swiss mission, was unknown to all of tie
Senators except Messrs. Hoar and Dawes,
from his own State. This batch of nomina-
tions knocked out two Illinois men-Gov-
ernOr Shulnan. who sought the Swiss mis-
sion, and DIR. Logan, who claims to be from
Illinois. and who has been seeking the ap-
pointment for Madrid. There will be no
tears shed III the Illinois delegation, at the
refusal of the President to appoint Dr. Lo-
gan, because he has not been supported
with any enthusiasm, and is not regarded
as representative of the State. When he
was appointed to Office the last time he
hailcd from Kansas; now he claims TO come

Surprise Over the Discovery Of the Treason

LoNDoN, March 1.-THE discovery of the
reasonable plots and actions of the
Maharaiah of Cashmere has created great
surprise and caused n profound sensation
here. 1t was believed by the government
that the Maharajah was an ultra loyal
vassal. He sent costly presents, accom-
panied by profuse protestations of devotion
to the Queen on the accession of her Maies-
ty's jubilee, and contributed with lavish
hand to the fund for the Imperial Institute
in honor of that event. 1t Is quite gener-
ally believed in official circles that the
Maharaiah was prompted to his disloyal
purposes by emssaries acting under orders
from the Russian government, and this be-
lief is freely and openly expressed.

Rudolph Not Murdered.

VIENNA, February 2.-The post mortem
medical report in the case of the Crown
Prince Rudolph sets at rest the rumors OF
murder. The public is less agitated, and
the theory of brain disease is being gen.
orally accepted. The Emperor gave an
audience this morning to Arch-Duke
Franz. The interview is understood to
have been in relation to the succession.
The body lies in state in the private
chapel Of Hofburg from Monday morning
until Tuesday noon, when it will be taken
to the Capuchin Church in Neuemarket.
The Court surgeons, in their official
report on the death of Crown Prince Ru-
dolph, say they found peculiar fatten-
ing of the skull internally, depression
of the cerebral folds, and an enlargement
of the ventricle of the brain. These ab-
normal conditions, the surgeons say, JUS
tify the belief that the Crown Prince was
insane.
Few persons were permitted to view
the remains to-day. The coffin is COW
cred with black, white and gold cloth.
Palms are grouped around the head Of
the coffin. The King and Queen of
Belgium and Prince Baldwin arrived to-
night. The public was excluded from
the station.
