Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
LONDON. May Il hear ON excellent author

peerage, Goschen will succeed him. and not
Balfour, as is commonly supposed. Salisbury
feels that the latter would cause too many jeal-

The appointment of liberal unionist will
obviate tory jealousies amongst themselves, by
passing them all over equally. Goschen's ac-
cession to the leadership of the commons will
be striking instance of the fact that every
thing comes to those who wait Four years
ago, when Goschen anticipated the liberal Sc
cession, everyone thought him finally out of it.

The prospects of a sugar convention are now

SENATOR GORMAN'S BROTHER.
WrOthy Maryland Republicans After
His Scalp.

1t seems that the republicans of Maryland
are very wroth over the retention in
office of Calvin German, brother of
the Senator, whom President Cleve-
land appointed an inspector of customs.
Not long ago he was written letter informing
him that his services would be no
longer required. but some influence was
brought to bear on Secretary Window,
and about week ago the letter
was withdrawn. Mr.. German is still
drawing 81 day, and Mr.. Mudd and
Mr.. McComas are exhibiting considerable
wrath at the procedure. 1t is said that ex-
Senator Davis, cousin of Germans. and a
warm personal friend of Mr.. Window.
has had something to do with
the retention Of the inspector
1t is limited that a move will soon be made
ON the President by the stalwarts OF Maryland
to effect Mr.. Gormans final removal from Of

WABASH, IND, May 2.-Dr. p G. Moore, of

feet, and is made of pure homespun linen.
There are fifteen stripes. and the colors all
hold remarkably we'll. The field is by "a
inches, and contains simply the inscription.

He Wants Lord Londonderry to Remain
in Ireland-Other Gossip.

LONDON, May At is safe to say that Lord
Salisbury, Mr.. ". II. Smith. and Mr.. Balfour
have not consumed much time in reading the
lately published speeches of that political bull
in a china shop, Lord Randolph Churchill. The
friends of Mr.. Smith were happily released
from their fear that Churchill would come into
parliament with the strong support of BIrming-
ham behind him and take the leadership of the
house OF commons from the newsdealer. Mr.
Balfour gives him very wide berth. and Lord
Salisbury has an undisguised horror of the
democratic tory"
The premier is also troubled by the reluct-
ance of Lord Londonderry to retain longer the
lord heutenancy of Ireland. Notwithstanding
his promises and the inducements held out 20
him by the government 20 stay there. Lord
Londonderry is naturally kinl-hearted man.
and 1t Is an open secret that he would be glad
TO get away from the unhappy country. where.
no matter what his private disposition may be.
his name will be associated now and henceforth
with tyranny and oppression. His ostenSible
reason is that he requires al of his time 10 at
tend to his private affairs, which have fallen
into coni=slon during his tenure of Office. but
he does not mention the perpetual pleas of his
august spouse tor release from her unendur-
able
EXILE AMONG THE 'HoRRID IRISH"
The tories quote proof that the Irish are
not so destitute as reputed the fact that out of
the tJo,CuO subscribed for the defense fund
some Gz7, ,000 were raised in Ireland. thus
making their iberality point against them. a
method of reasoning worthy of its source.
hence none of the contributions have been large.
There has been much disappointment and
he&-t-burnng among ambitious lordiings at
the selection by her majesty of the Earl of
Erne to ill the vacant knightshIp of s.. Pat
rick, and it will cost the government
some votes, but the earl is the most
active Orangeman in all the order and
won some prominence by suggesting awhile
ago TO the Protestant employees of Ulster to dis
charge all Catholic workmen. The Irish ana
liberal journals take malicious pleasure in
commenting upon Dhuleep Sngh's modest re-
guest for the restoration Of the celebrated Koh-
i-noor diamond. which. he asserts. belongs to
