JUDGE HoGE TO RErrKK.


Gossip as to His Successor.
The truth of the report that there il soon to
be change in the Office Of United States dis
trict attorney for the District of Columbia.
printed in yesterdays SrAR, was fully verified
today. Judge Hoge, who was appointed TO the
Office by President Cleveland. has already pre-
pared his resignation. which will take effect the
first Of next month. He decided to resign when
he learned that the President was desirous of
making a change in the once.
Personally Judge Hoge says he prefers TO 60
out Of Office before the summer than TO leave
ii in the winter, which he would have TO do,
as his term expires in January next II is
only question of ten months. anyhow, he
said to q STAR repoi ter today. and in going out
at this time he is perfectly willing to leave the
administration Of his Office to the criticisms of
the public.
Why the resignation Of Judge Hoge was
wanted not known TO the retiring of6cisl but
A. is usually the case, there are plenty Of ru-
mors a6oat. Judge Hoge, however, knows
nothing Of the reasons for making change at
this time.
After retiring from once Judge Hoge win
continue to resfde in this city, though he will
retain his legal residence in Martinsburg, W.
Va, where his family have spent much Of their
time while he held Office.
The question that nov agitstes the members
Of the bar Is who 10 70 Be Judge Hoge's sue
cessor.
There are . number Of republican lawyers
here who have had an eye on the ofice on sew
eral occasions
Among those talked Of - his succeusor d Mr.
C. G. Cole, who was named prominently for
the position when Mr.. Worthington was sp-
pointed about seven years ago. 1t ID
reported that he IL backed by strong
influence from Maine, his native state,
and West Virginia, where he settled after
the xar. Today the name Of Mr.. A. A. Birney,
who has served - an assistant in the ofhce, Il
mentioned also, but the prevailing impression
Is that some member Of the present Congress
whose term expires on March 4 viii be ap-
pointed es-

vas passed authorizing the construction of q
bridge across the St. Louis river between Min
nesota and Wisconsin.
THE INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILL.
The House then went into committee Of the
whole, Mr.. Dingley Qde.) in the chair, on the
Indian appropriation bill
In the general debate Mr.. Smith (Ariz.) gave
his views upon the solution OF the Indian prob
lem. When men talked about educating the
Indians through the medium of the school
house they might as well talk Of catch
ing crows on horseback. Civilization must
come first through self-dependence. It
mnst como through knowledge that they must
esquire subsistsnce for themselves and fami-
lies and every dollar appropriated for Indian
lutcly thrown away. The Indian must be a far
iper. sheep raiser or a cattle raiser before he
could be made citizen. The Indian question
should be settled by the plowshare and not by
the spelling book. He (Mr. Smith) had gone
west believing in Fennimore Cooper'a concep-
ton of an Indian. He had found the Indian
nasty, dirty, lousy vagabond who would not
work.
f THE INDIAN CAPABLE OF EDUCATION.
Mr.. Blanchard Ua.) commended that the In
dian was capable of education and civilization.
and in support of his contention quoted
from various reports Of committees appointed
to inquire into the Indian question to
show that the Indian could be civilized and
induced to work. It was the duty of the gov
eminent not to extinguish the Indians, but to
help them to become farmers and Christians,
and If the country failed in that duty it would,
rs nation, be as responsible for the failure as
an individual would be for the sins he had
committed.
f A GENERAL ATTACK.
Mr.. Pierce CTenn.) made u brief political
speech, in which he denounced the action of
the majority of the House during the present
Congress. The recent election had shown
that the people had not Endorsed tina
action, which had broken down
the nsases and practice Of the House, and
which had increased the burden of taxation.
Touching upon the silver question he said that
the peoPie Of the country had an opinion upon
that subject which would not down even at the
dictates OF ex-President Grover Cleveland.
ME-. oRosvENoR ARRAIaNs THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY.
Mr.. Grosvenor Ohio, in replying to the gen.
tleman, said that the democratic party had
never dared to take affirmative action. Now
there rolled across the pathway Of that party
q question upon which it would
hnv" to take affirmative action. Had
the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr.
Pierce) forgotten that the democrats President
had denounced in unrelenting terms this whole
swindle Of unlimited silver coinage? Has he
forgotten that the greatest man in the demo-
cratic party-the man who had the ear of the

SORROW AT THE CAPITOL.
Gen sickles' Feeling Tribute to the venera-
BILE Warrior.

Gen Sickles' Feeling Tribute to the vensra-
BILE Warrior.
Gen. Sickles was in the private corridor Of
the Senate when he was told of Gen. Sherman's
death. "niillions of people have been
praying earnestly" said he, 'that the
old warrior might recover, and I had
hoped that his great vitality and will power
might nave pulled him through. Could he
have known how the popular heart throbbed
with his. how much of sympathy there was for
him, it would have soothed his last moments on
earth. wha: Of him as a soldier?
The whole world can answer tina. question.
As to his greatness n leader. can add no
tribute that would brighten the record. The
name Of Sherman will always be prominent In
military annals and American history.
SENATOR REAGAN's REGRET.
$50 Sherman is dead,'' was Senator Reagan's
exclamation when STAR reporter told him Of
the sad but anticipated event. 81 knew him
well and esteemed him very highly, both
as a man and general. He was q very
able military leader and good friend. Per-
sonally I did not know him prior to the war;
hut knew of him. His brother and were in
the House when William Tecumseh was in Cali
fornis, ard his brother frequently read some of
mis- very interesting letters to me. regret the
generals death exceedingly. Such men are
not nunlerous."
MESSAGE TO coSaRKss.
After Gen. Schofeld had returned from the
White House he told STAR reporter that the
President was engaged in preparing message
to Congress announcing Gen. Sherman's
death. The funeral win take place in New
York under the care of Gen. Slocum
and the irterlnent will be in st. Louis in the
lot where Mrs. Sherman lies buried. The gen.
eral made known his wishes in this regard two
years ago. An order to the army will be issued
this afternoon and the executive departments
will probably be closed on the day Of the fun
eral.
THE NEWS AT THE WAR DEPARTMENT.
When the news Of Gen. Shermnn's death was
received at the War Department the corridors
were at once filed with messengers hurrying to
and fro with the sad tidings. In less than Ave
minutes the announcement had spread
all over the great building. In the alb
sence of Secretary Proctor, Gen. L. A..
Grant, assistant secretary, is at the head of
things at the War Department, and he at onco
sent word down to Gen. Schofeld, with whom
he went over TO the White House, where the
President talked over the matter Of an official
order with them.
