New Colored Appointee.
tch to The EVENING STAR.

special Dispatch to The EVENING STAR.
LYNCHBURa, Va, July 22.-W. H. Davis, col
ored, of Pittsylvania county, Va, was recently
appointed by Superintendent Vickery a postal
clerk to run between this city and Pocahontas
He was given letter to Postal Clerk Dennis,
democrat containing the request that he Den-
nis) would 'coach" Davis on the route Den
mis-. who expected to be removed, declined to
comply with the request, and his action in the
premises was promptly reported to headquar-
ters. The refusal of Dennis to coach him was
followed by like refusal on the part of Postal
Clerks Payne and beavers (white republicans).
both of whom declared that they would lose
their positions before they would consent to
run with a nigger." At last reports the col
ored appointee was still waiting to be instructed
in the line of his duties, and the indications are
that he will continue to wait some time to come.
The matter is in the hands of Superintendent
Vickery, and Payne and beavers are anticipat-
ing their removal.
The appointment Of p. H. McCaull to sue
ceed Capt. Ham Shepherd as collectoc of inter-
nal revenue for this district creates no surprise
here. as suca action was considered foregone
conclusion. 1t is thought that he will take
charge of the Office on August 1st proximo.
Iwo-thirds of the white republicans of this
city are applicants for position under the new
collector.
Capt. Shepherd is prominently mentioned in
connection with the secretaryship of the DEM
ocratlc state committee

tion,
MAr DErEAr IT'S oByEcr.
The commission has been In session az White
Earth one week and progress toward securing
the signatures Of the Indians is slow. As .
part of the proceedings the Indians insist upou
placing on the records the commissioner con-
struction of the bill Two of the educated
mixed bloods have been appointed by the
tribe as a committee 70 suggest questions to
the commission in reference 20 the bill, and IN
is evident that the tribe will be guided largely
by whatever conclusion the former may arrive
at One OF these men
Is STRONGLY OPPOSED TO THE Bill
and is desirous Of seeing il defeated, in order
that the agreement made with the north
western treaty commission three years age
may be ratified. The other man was one OF the
leaders of the opposition TO that agreement
and is inclined to be favorable 20 the bill. The
questions suggested 10 the commission by the
committee referred to have not been answered
entirely 10 the satisfaction OF the Indians anc
they have requested until next Tuesday 10 get
legal advice in reference TO them. The COM
mission has granted their request and nothing
more viii be done until then. The quantity OF
land involved Is over 1000 600 acres.

Princess Louise Must Give Up
Her Right to the Crown.
THE CHIPPEWA LANDS.
Mrs. Hogan Believes Her Hus-
band is Lost.
THE ROYAL MARRIAGE GRANTS.
The Princess Asked to Renounce Her
Claims to the English Crown.

Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR.
LONDON, July 22.-In well informed circles
the story is current that the marquis of Sails
bury has written to the queen urging her to
exact from Princess Louise of Wales a promise
that upon her marriage she will renounce all
her rights to the succession of the throne. In
the event of the two sons of the Prince of
Wales both dying without issue the children
OF the Princess Louise would be in the direct
line Of succession to the crown. This is by no
means such a remote contingency as may at
first sight appear, and the fact that it is quite
within the bounds of possibility that Lord Fife
may in course of time be the father of .
monarch justifies its discussion. Such a de-
noument, should it ever be brought about,
would be regarded with anything but favor by
the more influential of our old nobility, who, as
great lady plthily put it yesterday, ''have no
idea OF being ruled over by one of Flies chill
dren." Meanwhile the official arrangements
for the wedding are published to-day.
The decision on the royal grants matter will
probably be announced in the house of COM
mons this evening"
The Marylebone election, where the un-
popularity of these grants helped to reduce the
tory ma ajority, will make the ministers more in
cIlned to compromise.

done, and they do not admit that the complain
ants bid was the lowest.

The Proposed Removal of the Apaches.

The Proposed Removal Of the Apaches.
For several months the War department OIL
cials have had under consideration the pro-
posed removal of about 400 Apaches, including
the members Of Geronimo's band and nnm-
Der Of Indians who served in the United States
army as scouts in the campaigns against
Geronimo. The Indian Rights association and
the Massachusetts Indian association have
offered TO purchase the land necessary 10 ac-
commodate the Indians il the government will
select the site and authorize the change. Capt
John @. Bourke in his report Gays the Indians
expressed q preference for high, cooler lands,
whore they could farm and raise cattle. They
asked that before final choice was made they
might be allowed to inspect the lands. Capt
Bourke names four places in his report which
might be advantageously selected, but the one
that meets with most favor is the Cherokee
reservation, on Smoky Mountains, on the line
between North Carolina and Tennesfee. IL is
understood that the Cherokees are willing 10
sell enough Of the land to accommodate the
Apaches, and il is probable the authorities win
consent to remove them there after the Indian
Rights association have obtained the title 70
the land.

tude. The German chancellor has been con-
tending all along that Switzerland failed in
carrying out the obligations imposed upon her
by article Ii Of the treaty of 1876, in that she
admitted to her territory subjects of Germany
without rigorous examination of their cre-
dentials. The Swiss note reminds Prince Bis
marck that he must have forgotten that he in
structed Herr Won Bulow, the German minister
at Berne, some time ago to urge the Swiss gov
ernment to be more ienient in its enforcement
of the provisions of article II of the treaty
against Germans crossing into Switzerland
The note says the Swiss government can
scarcely reconcile this request for greater le-
niency in its administration of the article re-
ferred to with the present complaint on the
part of Germany that the Swiss government
was not sufficiently rigorous in the enforce
ment of its provisions
