A republican member OF the senate
committee on judiciary, who takes q
most active part in the consideration Of
President CIeveland's nominations Just
at this time, recently remarked to COR

Cleveland beng confirmed. IL is too
late for him TO expect the republicans to
be party to the paying off of his poll
tical scores. am member OF anothe r
committee which has probably as many
nominations as any OF the committees,
and the same feeling exists there thas
exists in the judiciary committee. We
have discovered that in many cases !,
officers whose commissions would soon
expire after the 4.h OF March, have re-
signed for the purpose OF creating va
cancies to be filled by MIR. Cleveland.
The new commissions would run three or
four years, as the case may be. and these
democrats would be saddled on q
republican administration for full term.
| have not yet seen the nomination
during the present session OF congress of
q single thoroughbred republican. Those
nominated by President Cleveland, who
are reported to be republicans, are either
outright mugwumps OF that mild man
nered class OF republicans whose politics
could scarcely be discovered by a dark
lantern investigation committee.

The Samoan Affair.

Washington special: The secretary
of state to-day received long dispatch
from Vice Consul Blackjack at Samoa,
giving additional details in regard to the
disturbance ON the island on the 18th
ult. 10 which so many Germans were
killed and wounded by the natives un-
der the leadership of an alleged American
citizen named Klein. Itis merely an
elaboration of the cable message se-
ceiYed from Consul Blackjack Jan. s.,
but presents the occurrences IN much
clearer and more comprehensive manner
than was possible at rnat time. Iile
despatch received by Secretary Whitney
from the commander OF the NipsIc bears
the date OF Auckland Jan. 5, and is as
follows.
Three German war ships ns Apia
threatened to dissrm Mateafa;. landed
at Lalengo to prevent Mataafa's retreat.
Engagement followed; Germans lost
twenty killed, thirty, wounded. Germans
swear vengeance; Smelling and burning
native villages. Neutral prop
ersy not respected, Protests dis
regarded. American property In dan
ger. Consul reports American in boat
flying American flag se,zed In Apia
harbor by armed German boat, but re-
leased after investigation. German
captain says no flag was shown. State
of affairs so serious request additional
force. Remain at Aukland three weeks.
Inquiry st the navy department today
developed that Secretary Bayard has
made no direct response to Secretary
Whitney's letter inquiring as to the
policy of this government. 1t is under
stood. however, that the president g
action in referring the matter to congress
wss based to considerable degree upon
the points made In Secretary Whisney's
letter. In answer TO an inquiry ON this
subject, Secretary Whitney this after
noon said:
There is no ansagonism between the
state department end she navy depart
ment in this matter. For the protection
of the naval officers who are at Samoa or
who may bs sent thsre, I asked for
definite statement of policy for their
guidance, and on the 18th inst ihe presi-
dent referred the whole matter to con-
gress and there il rests.

propriating money to pay for the ad
ditional clerks not provided for in the
congressional act. This bill ID is said
the governor proposes to veto on the
ground that the organic act does not
empower she Legislature to appropriate
money for such purpose. 1t is worthy OF
remark that the governor finds consti-

readily signs bill providing for the

The Plunge Of Street Car on a Gin
cinnati Road.

CINCINNATI. October ia most appall-
ing accident occurred on the Inclined Plane
Railway of this city today between 12 and i
o'clock. 1t was on the Mount Auburn In
clined Plane which lies at the head of Main
street and reaches to height of between $50
and 600 feet, in space of perhaps 1000 feet
or less. Two cars are employed, one on each
track. They are drawn by two steel wire
cables that are wound up on drum at the
top of the hill by an engine located there.
Nine passengers had entered the car at the
foot of the plane and number were on the
other car at the top. The passage of tn Q
ascending car was all right until it had
reached the top, when the faithful engineer
found that the machinery would not respond
and that he could not stop the engine. Only
one result was possible. The car was arrest
ed by the strong bumper which stops its pro-
gress, and as the engine continued all its
force was expended on the two cables, and
they snapped like thread under its enormous
power. Then the car with its nine inmates
locked within began the descent of that
plane was frightful. The iron gate that
formed the lower end of the truck on which
the car rested was thrown 60 feet down the
street. The top of the car was lying almost
as far away in the gutter: The truck itself
shapeless wreck. mingled with the bleeding
and mangled bodies of the nine passengers.
Two were taken out dead, one middle
aged lady with gray hair, recognized
as Mrs. Ives, the other a young girl of 20,

Knelss, died soon afterward. Five others
escaped miraculously with but slight in

different position from majority of the

creased pension allowed him, without any
application ON his part, or, in fact, any
knowledge that his case was being consid-
cred with view to an increase, until he had
received his certificate from the Commission
er of Pensions. Without drawing the rear
rearages which the certificate showed we're
due him, Senator Manderson at once wrote
to the Secretary OF the Interior lnquiring
whether the increase in his case was made
in accordance with law. The Secretary, in
response, forwarded to the Senator copy of
a decision which he had just made in the
latter's case, in which it was held, as before
stated, that, while the Senator was wholly
blameless in the matter, the re-rating and in
crease were clearly in violation of law.
Thereupon Senator Manderson promptly re-
turned the certificate to the department that
it might be cancelled.
