Indianapolis. Feb. i5.-EN-Senator Window
made his visit to-day to General Harrison, had
a four-hours' conference with the Presldcnt-eect,
and went home in spirits as exuberant as Mr..
wanamaker's on the evening Of his famous pill
erimaQe here The smile on the ex-Secretarys
face, as he returned to the railroad station, his
affability and readiness in answering questions,
his air Of serene satisfaction, were certainly so
many superficial signs OF the success of his mis-
SION Though he would make no definite answer
TO the many questions whether he
had accepted the Treasury portfolio or not,
something ne did say limited strongly in that drec-
ton. II came here at General Harrison's sole
Itation,' was his response to Question about his
being specially invited to make the trip. You
may put all the emphasis you like on that had
had some correspondence with the Presidentelect,
and two days ago he sent enc telegram, asking
me TO come out for personal talk That talk
has been a very pleasant and a very satisfactory
one You can draw as strong an inference as you
please from that. II it were my secret, would
be glad to give IL TO you but II is General Harr-
sons as we'll as mine, and do not think ought

The only doubt, in fact left here by the Sen
atOrS visit Is whether or nOb inc secrco c toitlS"

will keep. The best political opinion here to-
night comedies that the ex-Secretary viii certainly

DAYS ago Mr.. WINDOWS appointment was
looked on by many of General Harrison's friends
as on. of the longest Of chances. Some of them
maintained until this morning that the ex-Secre-
tary's selection was highly improbable one.
But the visit and Mr. WINDOWS bearing, both he
fore and after the conference, has turned the tide

Terrific Storms.

New YORK, April 17.-Ihere is a furry
among the sugar trust people; and it may
be there will be sugar famine, as some
body has been buying good deal of sugar
lately. The whisperings and consultations
which have been going on among the sugar
kings, have been occasioned by an entirely
unprecedented state of the raw sugar stock
in the hands of the importers and agents of
this country. There are only about four
teen thousand tons against 10000 tons at
the corresponding period last year.
Somebody is buying up sugar in England,
and somebody has bought up in this city
since last Saturday 5000 tons of the 40, 700
tons on hand. Who ever these somebodies
are, sugar trust certificates have been going
up significantly. On Monday of last week
certificates were sold for S414 with light
demand. Wednesday, when the new deal
was supposed to have been brought about,
there was an active demand and the price
went up to IS. Thursday the price was
S9$4. Friday it jumped to 994 Since then
the price has lowered between 50 and 9S
Raw sugar April l, only 5% cents a pound.
Saturday last it was cents, and the
tendency is still upward Beet sugar is
also going up.

SANTA FE, n. M, April 17.-New Mex
ico's newly appointed governor, L. Brad
ford Prince, former chief justice of the
territory, and whose home is in this city,
arrived from Washington at noon to-day.
He was met at the depot by fully 5000 cit
liens representing the leading men from
every section of the territory. A process
sion was formed which marched to the cap
itol and the governor was inaugurated amid
imposing ceremonies.
Ex-Govern0 Or Axtt II delivered the welcome
address, frequently referring to the new
era which the appointment of Governor
Prince was expected to open up for New
Mexico. The governor responded. He
spoke of the undeveloped resources of the
territory, and urged the people to continue
their demand for admission as state.
Governor Ross, whom Governor Prince
succeeds, was present at the Inauguration
and took part in making it a success. Gen
eral satisfaction is felt throughout the ter
ritory over the appointment of Prince.

KANSAS CITY. April 1.-THE Times Cald-
well, Kansas, special says: The heavy
rains of last night have made the streams
worse than ever, and unless they subside
there will be great difficulty in reaching
Lisbon formerly King Fisher from here.
The country is very beautiful now after
the rains, and the Cherokee strip south of
Caldwell is as good as any. 1t is fertile
rolling prairie The cattle men are not yet
reconciled to the situation, and look on the
settlers with ill-concealedd dislike.
The boomers will start altogether tC-
morrow with the troops in front of them.
1t will be sight not often presented be-
fore in America, thousands or more settlers
marching toward their homes under regula-
lions of the war department. The settlers
here are of a remarkably good class. Most
of them have comfortable outfits. Every
body seems to be for himself, and rather
jealous and suspicious of others when not
united by the bonds of friendship.
Some experienced settlers say there will
be no trouble of any sort at Lisbon, while
others say it cannot be prevented.

READY DISSEMINATION OF NEWS.
The Postal Department Makes an Important
Order About Trainmen.

WASHINGTON, April 17.-Thepo stofice de-
partment has rescinded the order issued
during the last administration having for
its object the encouragement of the practice
by trainmen of carrying newspaper cores
pondence and other matter in other than
mail trains.
1t is said at the department that there is
very large number of small towns
throughout the country which have meagre
Geographic facilities. In many of these
villages the post and telegraph Offices close
early, and to prohibit trainmen from carry
ing to the neighboring town or city small
packages containing, possibly, information
of the highest general Importance, is re-
garded as unwise and unjust. The newspa-
pers of the country, it is maintained, should
receive every possible facility for obtaining
and disseminating the news of the day, and
to this end trainmen have been encouraged
TO lend their aid

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE prospective
opening of Oklahoma has already resulted
in applications for charters for national
banks to be established there. These
applications have raised perplexing ques-
ton with which the attorney general and
the comptroller of the currency are now
wrestling
The law provides that applications for
authority to open national banks shall be
on file for year before the charters are
granted. The territory of Oklahoma, how
ever, has not been open to settlement until
now, and consequently there has hitherto
been no occasion for applications for the
establishment of national banks With the
opening of these lands there would be an
immediate need of banks; but if the law be
construed literally, no national banks can
be established in Oklahoma for a year to
come,

THE DECLINE IN CERTAIN STOCKS.
The Cause Said to be Union Pacific Machina-
tions

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE sharp decline
in the price Of Oregon Railway &
Navigation at the stock exchange yester-
day and Monday bred in Wall street a
suspicion that some manipulation was being
directed against that property and its
friends. The real origin of the rumors is
said to be the unsettled relations of the
Northern Pacific and the Union Pacific in
regard to the lease of the Oregon Naviga-
ton by the Oregon Short line made in 1887
1t was generally believed when the lease
was made that the Union Pacific expected
the Northern Pacific would assume Joint
liability. Negotiations in this direction
never reached completion. They are be
ieved to be delayed by the hostile attitude
of two directors of the Northern Pacific
who are creditors, with a desire to secure
q reduction in the rate of guarantee to the
Oregon Navigation under the joint lease;
and the suspicion has been created that the
Union Pacific was disposed to utilize the
of the situation in order to
relieve itself of the single responsibility
The Oregon Navigation people claim the
lease to the Oregon Short Line can stand
any tests in the courts.

AGOOd Scheme,

WASHINGTON, April 7.-Superintendent
Bell, of the foreign mails Office, has re-

authorities of Germany, recommending the
establishment of sea postoffices for the dis

American mail during the trip from Ger

WASHINGTON, April 17.-From one hun
bred to one hundred and fifty fourth class
postmasters are being appointed daily. Of
these, one-third fill vacancies, another third
are appointed in the places of pestmasters
removed for cause, while the other third
succeed ostmasters who have served about
four years. While fourth class postmasters
are commissioned during the pleasure of
the postmaster-gene it is believed by the
postofice department that the good of the
service does not demand the retention of
postmasters, save in exceptional cases, be-
yond four years. While the good of the
service is said to be the first consideration,
there are reasons to believe that the commits
slons of postmasters who have served four
years will be deemed to have expired.
