MADRIp,S MISSION.
Palmer Coming Home and Clarkson to
Succeed Him.

WASHINGTON, March 3l.-Minister Pal
mer's resignation is on the way, and by
May Mr.. Palmer will have left Madrid for
Detroit. All his life he has longed to be
governor of Michigan, and although he has
been United States senator and minister to
Spain. he still has sentimental aspiration
for the poorly paid Michigan gover1orship.
But beyond that there is his desire TO
punish the Alger crowd for keeping him
out of President Harrison's cabinet with
their annoying protests. just now Gen.
Alger controls the republican machine in
Michigan, but if Minister Palmer can
make himself governor, he will be able to
put a spoke in Gen. AIger's wheel. He will
do all that he can to prevent Gen. Alger,s
getting a solid delegation from Michigan
to the next national convention
II the Michigan delegation is not solid for
him, Gen. Alger can hardly hope for the
presidential nomination. 1t is said that
Lord High Executioner Clarkson will sue
ceed Mr.. Palmer as minister to Spain. Mr..
Clarkson has no desire to go to China,
whittier the gossius have sent him, or to go
abroad at all for any long time, but he
might go to Spain for year.

lhtive enactneats recognizing the existence

the purchase of land and congested districts
in Ireland is printed. 1t bears the names of

tion of the land department, and the fourth

measure is examined the larger grow the
points of objection. Tho revenue returns
for 1899 go to show that the Iecsipts in
creased G4,6l7, ,024, of which only 81, l00,-
0o0 was due to augmented taxat ou.
Allowing for sums paid for local
taxation on account of this year, and last

1851 ,5Of. 1t was estimated that Mr..
Goschen would have asurplus of so, 900, ,000."
