TIE PRESIDENT INVESTIGATING.

A Decision in Which senator Henderson
mud Mrs. Cleveland Are Interested.
WASHINGTON, May President
Harrison, in scrutinizing the public
building bills now before him, came
across a matter in connection with the
postotlice site at Omaha that arrested
his attention. US,
The appropriation calls for s400 COO, or
as much thereof as may be necessary.
Two sites were offered, one consisting Of
a single piece OF ground at $3.50 900, and
the other made up OF several lots, owned
by different individuals, at 100000.
1t is said by ex-senator Saunders and
other citizens OF Omaha, that the
S35O,0OO site is more desirably situated
and better adapted to the purpose than
the more expensive one, and has, be-
eidea, The favor Of the people. But when
the question OF deoiding between the
propositions came up before the Secre-
tary OF tho Treasury, and tho matter had
been referred to tho Architect OF the
Treasury for his decision, Senator Man
derson, who is attorney for the lot own
ers Of the 100000 site, and il said to
have Il big fee at stake, came upon the
scene and persuaded the Secre tary to &c.
lect the site in which he was interested.
The investigation upon which the archi-
tect had entered was stopped, the papers
withdrawn ind Manderson's clients got
the award. -52;l
Among Senator ,Manderson's clients is
Mrs. Grover Cleveland, who il the
award stands, is. to receive $4,000 for a
lot which she would have willingly sold
for LEES than half that sum. Since this
occurred the owners OF the $3.50, 600 site
have expressed n willingness to let the
Government have it for S325 900, but
Secretary Window, acting under the in
iluenco Of Henderson, sticks, notwith.
standing the fact that some of Mander-
sons clients have not been able to per
feet their titles. ~
