Secretary Charles Foster OF the Treasury
came to town early yesterday and break
tasted at tho Firth Avenue Hotel with Coll
lcctor Hendricks. The Secretary said that he
had come 20 New York on personal matters.
Nr. Foster has noticed u serious difference
OF opinion in Washington on the proposition
10 restrict lmm grafton next year. II may be
that the differences can be satisfactorily adj
ju>'ed. and for time the Federal employees
at Ellis Island are comparatively safe. Col
Weber his assistant, Gen OBeiine. Mahion
Chance. ard about thirty immigration ia
spectors have expected to move out In the
event OF immigration being restricted. The
services OF so largea force would not then bs
necessary.
col. Weber has never been looked upon as .
barnanle on the Republican party. The people
Mt Washington believe that h. has performed
his duties according to the best lights given To
him. There ls a disposition, though. on the
part OF tho Harrison Administration not to
wait for the Cleveland Admins lat ration before
getting rid OF the " barnscles."
II was made very plain yesterday that tn.
Secretary and some OF his friends believe that
"tarnarles" exist at Ellis Island and in vAri.
gu. departments OF the Federal service in New
York city. The propose, raid on the Treasury
INSPECTORS may cone at any moment some
lie:e that this raid should he POSTPONED. and
that John McMack IL and other labor leaders
OF his strit. should be left to the tender mer-
cies " IN. Ilevelaud administrators.
The people AZ Washington. though. are de.
termineu upon a reduction In the force. not
only Of Treasury inspectors. but Uf other
minor officials in the Federal service There
i more or less bitterness. over the SUBJECT.
! eadink uen in the Republican party say that
they have been buuroed by employees who
have assumed to speak for the labor Eeopie.
that this was anpiN demonstrated On election
day. and that there is no disposition to wait
for the cleveland Ada. % stration before these
fellows ate turned arift,
A.vouma could ne written ,concerning, the
Federal places under the Harrison Admins
tratiOn. Thos- in control OF the de pa rtments
now insist that these men should be put out.
one Of Secretary Fosters visitors said
" The quicker the Republican party OF New
York state follows the policy Of Richard Croker
III pushing young men to the front the better
II Will be tnr all hands.
- Look at some ot the men who are holding
ofae in our uarty to-day In this state They
are OF no earthly heneht TO anybody but them
selves. aud | doubt sometimes il they are
much value to their own persons They do
not control any votes They say they do and
plenty OF N oney has been given them to show
what they could do. In every instance they
failed to produce results They are oarnaclss
pure and simple. and should be- retired to
private life They have held on on the assump
t!on that they were OF value
" There hasn't been n chup gn IN this state
the last eight years in which their utter worth
lessn.-s has nor been demonstrated. am
speaking now OF mt who profess to represent
the labor element They ure botter on in this
party has received no benefit"
