Wilson is entitled to hold over until
such time as the contest between
Fleming and Golf shall have been

a Rush for PostOffices.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE APP
plications for appointment as fourth
class postmasters have been pouring
In at the Postoffice Department on
every mail since Inauguration day,
and the clerical force of the Office is
completely swamped. There are only
about enough clerks in the Office to
keep up the current business, and as
Congress made no provision for hir-
ing extra clerks for this contingency
1t will be some weeks before the
clerks can catch up with their work.
Most of these applications come in by
mail, bat many of them have been
left by members of Congress to
whom they had been forwarded.
Maryland. being so close to Wash
ington. leads all other States in the
number of applications already in,
and the desk of the clerk in charge
of that State is covered and surroun-
ded by great stack of applications,
Endorsements and letters of inquiry
from almost every postottice in the
State, piled up in the greatest confu-
sion. He is now busilv engaged in
sorting these out and classifying
them, and until that is done it will
be impossible for the appointing au-
thorities to obtain the information
required for making the appoint
ments. The majority of the Mary
land applications are believed to be
in, and no Maryland people at all
called at the Postoffice Department
to-day in reference to places.
The only Presidential postoffices in
Maryland in which vacancies exist at
present are those at Ellicott City,
Oakland, Rockville and Frostburg.
President Cleveland sent nominal
tons to the Senate for each of these
places, but they were not confirmed.
There is understood to be an abun-
dance of applicants for these places,
though no applications have yet been
filed in the Postoffice Department.
These Offices will be filled at an early
date.

DRESSED BEEF MONOPOLY.
Testimony Before the Senate Committe,
as to Phil. Armour's Trust.

The senate committee on dressed beef and
transportation plunged into a sea Of statistics
at the meeting in Chicago yesterday. These
were furnished by Editor Goodall of the
Drouer's Journal and A. c. Hallowen Of the
same paper. The latter did not think depres-
sion in trade had been caused in St. Louis,
Kansas City or Omaha by a combination which
Disseminated against those cities. He had
heard that Sam Allerton, Isaac waixel and Nels
Morris had formed q combination, but Mr..
Allerton had extensive interests in st. Louis.
Fred ]. Rowland, former chief book
keeper and confidential man Of Nelson Morris
q Co., was the next witness
Can you state" asked the chairman,
whether you know OF any agreement or COM
bination between Nelson Morris 4 Co., Armour
d Co., Swift Il Co. and others?"
well, they have made q combination among
themselves to sustain the price of dressed beef
They agreed on certain prices in certain states
and there were certain other states excluded
That is, in those states they could pay any price
they chose"
..Tell me-" said Senator Vest. shave YOU
been spoken to by any one since you were
subp9ned to come here?"
''Yes, sir; / was told by the Fairbank canning
company that need not come here at all; that
1t was not necessary"
MIR. Rowland afterward returned TO the stand
to suggest to the committee that his idea of the
solution of the present difficulty was the or
ganiZation of q cattle raisers syndicate to shin
cattle to Europe and kill them there
That's what think" said Senator Vest
"but that is what they can't do. They have not
the money. II they had the 500, O0O, 900 the
dressed beef men have they might do il, but
the producers have to get their money a. soon
as they SELL"
TALK OF ATTACHMENTS FOR ARMOUR AND MORRIS.
The absence Of the prominent dressed beef
shippers, who had been summoned as witnesses.
visibly irritated Senator Vest. Several times
during the afternoon he asked If Mr.. Armour
or Mr.. Morris were present. Finally a recess
was taken until this morning, there being no
other witnesses present.
With an impatient gesture Chairman Vest
said: Other witnesses have paid no attention
to our subpPnas. or course / am helpless
without action by the committee. You gentle
men understand that we have power to issue
writ OF attachment. 1t is impossible for the
committee to submit to this treatment"
The committee then held q private confer
ence whether or not writs should be issued
compelling the attendance Of Mr. Armour,
Nelson Morris and others before the commit
tee.
Senator Vest was asked after the meeting
what the committee had decided to do. He re-
piled: II cannot say this evening""
1t is understood that Senator FarveIl will
use his influence to secure the attendance of
the gentlemen without attachments. Senator
Vest said: I'VE do not want the sensational
features OF such proceedings il they can be
avoided"
