he was happy to be able to give mark of
sympathy both to France and to Herbette

Among the forty guests present were
Duke Schlesweig Of Holstein, Prince and

Especial to THE HERALD--Examiner Dispatch
WASHINGTON, March General John F.
Swift, Of San Francisco, dined en- fdmilte
with President and Mrs. Harrison at the
White House tonight.
General Swift denies most strenuously
that he is an applicant for foreign mis-
sion or any other place under the admin
istration. The gossip in well informed
political circles is that General Swift can
have any position within the gift of Pres
ident Harrison.
1t is also stated, and the information
comes from a semi-oficial source that Pres
ident Harrison proposed giving place in
the cabinet to a representative from the
Pacific coast and the gentleman whom he
would have selected is General Swift. He
disliked, however, to appoint General
Swift while so determined an effort was
being made in behalf of Mr.. Estee, and
therefore decided, as was repeatedly stated
in these dispatches, to leave the coast out
of his calculations altogether

of King Milan, though not expected so
soon, was received very calmly, having
been long considered inevitable.
In foreign official circles no fear is en-

existing peace, Bismarck having taken pre-
cautionary measures TO restrain Austria
from any precipitate action, and Russia
having all to gain by maintaining waiting
attitude.
CONFIDENCE RESTORED.
The news that Servia had decided to re-
duce her army further restores the conf
dence that no adventurous policy would be
pursued.
Immediately upon abdication King Milan
addressed a telegram to Emperor Francis

san Internal Tax SYSTEM"

In the opinion of the first good Dem
ocrat the internal revenue was an
"infernal tax system" and that phrase
has expressed the party policy and
sentiment down to the Cleveland agi-
tation of two years ago. But finally
the CoaLrier-JoltTHdI, in which the
genuine Democratic spirit seems to die
the hardest, declares squaroly that it
is against the abolition of the internal
revenue because that would make it
impossible to reduce the tariff" That
is not the fact, but the statement
shows that all the free trade journals
are certain before long to be emanci-
pated from the humbug of pretending
that they are engaged in promoting
the interests of the Democratic party,
while in truth they are occupied with
an economic crusade, solely n crusade
for free trade pure and undisguised.
This confession may not be entirely
advantageous to the tariff -smashing
cause, but it is certainly creditable to
the smashers. -NeU York Sun

of the heightened families of Pennsyl-

her and went to the far West. His
