CIarkson Said that Gen. Stevenson Made
too Many Appointments.
WASHINGTON, March 2S. - General
Clarkson, the First Assistant Postmaster
General, was questioned to-day concerning
certain newspaper criticisms directed
against his policy in the appointment OF
fourth-clsss pOstmasters In answer, he
said, that practically all of the changes
thus fa1 have been made for other than
political reasons A large number of the
appointments made during the last admin
istration were notoriously bad, andaclnsid-
erable number had been found delinquent
in their accounts, ClaTksOn declared.
Other changes had been made
in order to secure better locations for The
offices in many cases appointments had
been made with a view to the removal OF
lhe offices from the vicinity Of saloons. ln
every case of removal there had been good
sud sufficient cause therefor.
Perhaps, " he added, 1T is not general
y known that my predecessor, within the
month or six weeks prior to the fourth OF
March, made over a thousand ap-
pointments of fourth class post
masters for the purpose apparently
Of forcing them upon this administration.
This course had never been pursued 10 my
knowledge by any previous administra-
ton.
Daring the last several weeks Of Presi-
dent Arthur's term not single fourth
Glass postmaster was appointed, except IN
rare instances where the exigencies OF the
services demanded it, and when Postmas-
ter General Patton resigned there were
more than 8, 900 designations on file IN his
offices. The commissions OF the thousand
appointoes Of my predecessor were, CT
cour e, withheld, and these vacancies with

| Free Use of Money at the City Primaries In
St Louisa Bolt.
ST LOUIS, March 2s.-The political sit
uati here is a high tension, and much
bitterness has been engendered IN leading
parties. The Republicans have named
Col. James G. Butler for Mayor, and his
opponent in the convention, d. p. Slatt. Ty,
publicly avows that he was slaughtered by
free use of boOdle. Mr. Slattery threat
ened 10 run independently, but WAS finally
prevailed upon TO not thus imperil party
success.
The Republican City Central Committee
is made up largely of Slattery men, and to-
day when Col. Butler was called upon
TO nav over TO the committee an
assessment OF $1,000 he declined to
comply unless he knew how the
money Was to be used. Thereupon mem
hers of the committee threatened 10 take
bis name of the ticket and substitute an
other candidate which 10 is claimed viii
be done unless Col. Butler pays over his
assessment.
The feeling is heightened by an evening
Republican paper to night boiling for the
nominee for Mayor ana comiog out for the
Democratic candidate.
The Democrats ere 90 better on. After
a bitter personal contest between Geo. W.
Allen, the present Mayor Of st. Louis, and
Judge f. 4. NoonGn, of the Court OF Grim
ina Correction, the latter Wa8 nominated
for the mayoralty. The leading morning
Democratic psper had bitterly opposed the
nomination Of Noonan ON the ground that
ne was the alleged champion OF the saloon
element, and freely predicted his defeat il

st. Louis is regarded there with much
solicitude, owing 10 the remarkable result
of the November election, when the Repu0-
licans footed up majority Of over 1900,
and an exciting time is looked for at the
polls next Monday.
