None of the Judges Relatives to be
Lett in Fat Places.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S.-President Har-
rison's prescription of Judge Gresham ex-
tends 20 all Judge Gresham's relatives and
friends. The latest instance of this is the
removal of Mrs Gresham's brother, Major
Thomas McGrain of Indiana, from the
position of chief of division in the office of
the COMPTROLLER of the currency, a gray
haired Union soldier, an able and accom-
plisned gentleman, and admitted to be one
of the best division chiefs in the treasury
department. He was also the brother Of
Judge Gresham's wife, and so he had to go.
NO EXCUSE GIVEN.
No reason was given for his dismissal
No good reason could have been given. The
administration can't tolerate a relative of
Judge Gresham in a 81, 200 office, and so he
had'to go; and not only was he removed
from this place. but when his friends asked
that he be given clerkship at a smaller sal
airy they were refused, and he has had to seek
employment outside the executive depart
ment altogether.

About Judge Speer.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.-The MORNING
NEWS correspondent called on Col Locke
this evening and asked him what he had to
say about the candidacy of ex-Ordinary
Ward for postmaster at Macon. He replied
t. this aud subsequent questions substan-
TALLY as follows: 81 do not know in what
capacity Mr.. Ward applies. l have been a
citizen of Macon for years, ] have attended
republican meetings, | have known all tie
prominent republicans, but never so mucn
as saw Mr.. Ward. | would not know him
if | met him in the street. | never even
heard of him until last fall.
NOT AFRAID OF HIS RIVALRY.
81 am confident that his candidacy will
neither prevent nor postpone my appoint
ment. Two things commend me especially
TO the administration the feet that my papers
were not flied until within month Of tie
expiration Of Postmaster Trademarks time,
and TO be considered Only at the end of IL,
and the fact that | am Endorsed by every
prominent republican in Gsorsia aud by
the business men of Macon. How eau Mr..
Ward expect TO win then? Then he allows
Speer to use him as a tool in his fight on
me. Doesn't he know that my friends could
prevent his appointment. even if they could
A CATSPAW FOR THE JUDGE.
''The very utmost he could hope for would
be TO be Speer's catspaw to draw the post
office out for another man, but l have an
idea that the people of Macon will not toll
crate such course. They understand that
Speer is animated by personal feeling
merely. Why? l am informed that as late
as last Monday night Speer was willing to
withdraw all opposition to my appointment
il he was given a deputy collectorship of
internal revenue for a friend of his, named
Prather and absolute control of the Athens
postoffice. If [ secured him these things
then | was fit for postmaster
of Macon; if not, then l was unfit. This is
his reasoning about it, not mine. OF course,
l could not listen to such proposition. 1t
reminded me of another compromise of his.
In 1882, when he was in congress, he got
into fight with Pledger over the Athens
postOffice. In the course of 1t Speer filed
charges against Pledger at the postoffice
department. Then Pledger filed charges
against Speer. Friends interviewed, and
both Spser and Pledger withdrew their
charges. and Speer consented to Pledger's
appointment as surveyor at Atlanta.
