Republican Caucus Oh silver.

WASHINGTON, April 22-At meeting Of the
House Republican caucus committee this after
noon, the discussion showed that no marked
change in their views had taken place since last
meeting. Before the caucus was through there
was more evident desire to come to some
agreement with the Senate committee. The
silver men managed to secure one concession in
the shape of an amendment to the House COM
mittee bill which offered TO the Sem
ate a partial compromise absolutely re-
quiring the purchase of not less than
100000 ounces of silver month regardless of
price. The committee is also willing to agree
that treasury notes shall be issued in the pur-
chase OF silver bullion to be redeemed in coin or
lawful money as well as bullion as proposed
by the House bill but persisted in making a
proviso that thee government and not the
mining the medium in which notes are to be
redeemed. The two sub committees will meet
tomorrow afternoon for another conference.
Representative Hit, from the committee on
foreign affairs, to-day reported to the House the
diplomatic and conSularappropriatiO bill. The
total amount appropriated by the bill is
81 400, 562 The amount proposed by the bill last
year was 81 ,9S0025, of which $4,000 was appro-
priated on account of Samoa and SIS 600 for the
Japanese indemnity.
The House committee on postoffices and post
roads to-day completed the postoffice arprOpri-
alton bill for the fiscal year 1891. 1t carries in
appropriations S7l $50 9S2 being s. 2i5, 63S more
than the appropriation for the current fiscal

BARRETT OR BENTON
What General Clarkson Has to
Say About the Matter.
WHAT THE TROUBLE REALLY Is
The Office is over-W orked-Che Present In.
cumbent VIII Probably Remain Till
His Term Expires.

WASHINGTON, April 22.-[Special telegram to
The HERALD. Tho Salt Lake postmastership
is still involved in uncertainty. First Assistant
POSTMASTER General Clarl1son told me this
morning that there was no truth in the report
that he had carried Mr.. Benton's name to the
President. He said that Mr. Benton had been
strongly endorsed for the place. but that it was
difficult to tell what action the President would
ultimately take in the matter. The department
inspector who has been investigating the Office
recommends Mr.. Barrett's removal on the sole
ground that the Office has been rather
loosely managed. 1 asked General Clark
son he did not think the diff
hculty with the Office arose, not so much from
lack Of management on Mr.. Barratt's as from
the insufficient force the department gave him
to manage it. General Clarlkson frankly replied
that this was no doubt correct 81 know said
he, something about the rapid growth of these
western cities because 1 myself am western
man. Salt Lake, 1 am told, has grown very
rapidly within the past two years. 1 have no
doubt the postmaster has been handicapped for
lack of men to properly perform the duties of
the Office. Complaints similar to those against
MIR. Barratt have been made against the post
masters at Tacoma, Spokane Falls and other
places in the west, and 1 fancy they all have
their origin in the same cause"
Suppose it should prove asked General
Clarkson, that the theory we have disclosed
is true, and that the Salt Lake postmaster is
not really responsible for the condition of
affairs in his Office, Will he be permitted to
serve out his term?'
"There is no doubt of that General Clark
son replied. "The postmaster-general has
never yet, to my knowledge, dismissed an in
cumbent whose record was clean before the ex-
plration Of his term. 1 don't believe in such
methods myself, for 1 have old-fashioned Re-
publican notions in these matters but the post
master-general does not agree with them
The postmaster-general expects to examine
the papers in the case of the Salt Lake post
master within a few days, at which time he will
decide what action he will take in the premises

MAYOR LONDONER'S ACTS.
A Question as to Their Legaiity-The Case
Against Rice and Others

DENVER Colo. April Especial 70 THE
HERALD. For many days one of the morning
papers has been reiterating the charge that
Mayor Lon6oner was not entitled to his Office,
and hence all his acts were illegal, including
the signing Of warrants on the city treasurer.
The bondsmen of the latter official became
nervous and consulted an attorney. His opin-
ion not being made public causes additional
uneasiness and contradictory rumors are be-
ing circulated. 1t is now proposed to test the
matter in the supreme court and secure an
early decision. The plan of action has not
yet been settled but it will be arranged shortly
The case against Secretary of State
Rice Collier & Cieaveland, state printers
and others, was set for trial to-day
but it was postponed until to-mor-
row. This case it is claimed, was inStigat-
ed for political purposes to blacken the record
OF certain state officials, and the Republican,
which was loudest in the demand for a trial, has
weakened lately and attempted to ridicule the
proceeding. The whole matter grows out of a
faction wrangle in the Republican party which
has existed for years and blossoms afresh pre-
vious TO the election of state legislators when a
senatorial campaign is pending.

The Railroad Situation at pittsburp.

PITTsBURG, April 22.-The Brotherhood OF
Railroad Trainmen have taken up the cause OF
OF the switchmen. Various meetings were held
throughout the city, but the most important
was held by the Brotherhood trainmen, which
taxes IN brakemen, firemen, etc. They not
only resolved to cling to switchmen in their de-
mandS, but also presented grievances OF
their own to be adjusted. In addition
TO the trouble now in hand the car inspectors,
freight handlers, car cleaners, clerks in the
freight offices and men employed in the trans
portation department will present in the morn
ing list OF their grievances. The shop men en-
ployed In the numerous shops about the city
Will also present certain demands. The situa-
tlon tonight is all the more grave, in that
tne men have not been idle, while
the railroad officials have up to tonight
treated the demands of the men with something
like indifference. Grand Master Willeson says
tonight they can call out .l4,00o men if neces-
sary, and as the entire brotherhood is involved
the strike will extend from New York on the
east tC New Orleans on the west.
