THE PENSION BUREAU.
A Business Man to be Commissioner
of Pensions.

WASHINGTON, March "a Mr.. Cleve-
land saw few visitors today, the regular
cabinet meeting interfering. To one of
the callers, Representative Enloe, of
Tennessee, he made an important state
ment that he would appoint ''no dema-
gogic politician to be commissioner of
pensions. It is inferred from this sig
niticant announcement that the President
will appoint to the Office of commissioner
of pensions man more closely connected
with business than with politics. In
fact, he has expressed his intention to
divorce the Office from politics
and to select commissioner who will
conduct it purely on business principles.
A number of names for appointment to
the commissionership have been pre-
sented to Mr.. Cleveland 1t is said he is
proceeding wearily in the hope of Sc
lecting man who can keep his skirts
clear of unpleasant notoriety which has
come to the office in recent years.
The following executive order was is
sued today: By direction of the presi-
dent the Offices of members of the csbi
net will not be opened on either Tues
days or Fridays-cabinet days-but will
be closed on these days until otherwise
ordered This has become necessary fol
uninterrupted and more efficient transac-
ton Of the business of the government.

REPUBLICAN, WILL WIN.
The Senate Not 10 be keOrg aniZed
Until December.

WASHINGTON, March "a The indica-
tions at present DO not point to pro-
tracted fight in the senate over the re
organization Of the elective officers. If
the statements of s2me of the democratic
senators c6n be taken as an index to
their feelings on the question they will
capitulate without much OF struggle.
There appears not TO be cor suming de-
sire % q ter into any protracted debate
that will prolong the present extra ses-
sion beyond the time when the president
will have notified the senate that
he has no further communication
to make; and certain we'll known
senators have said that they intended to
leave the city regardless of whe' her there
was reorgan zation or not. The re-
publicans say they will insist upon a
strict following of the preceden's and
if they have the strength t. stand up for
that resolution it looks as if they would
be able to force the democrats to hold
off Until the commencement of the regu-
lar session Senators on both sides Of
the chamber are preparing to leave the
city, and it is not unlikely that imme-
diately after the decision of the con
tested election cases there will not be a
| quorum Of senators in the city.

The Cotton Strike Near an End.

MANCHESTER, March "a An agree

cotton strike will end Monday. The
Federation of Master Cotton Spinners
and the Amalgamated Association of
Operative Cotton Spinners met yesterday
afternoon to discuss terms for a settle

willing to accept reduction of two and
a half per cent. in wages, but some of the
Masters insisted upon five per cent re-

in the stopgage of between fourteen mil
lion and fifteen million spindles. Many
diverse opinions as to the proper method
of settling the trouble are advanced and
argued pro and con. The Representa-
tiyes Of the spinners are holding out
sturdily against any proposal, carrying
with it a reduction larger than the one
they had offored to accept. Both sides
are determined to secure the best posi-.
ble terms for themselves, aud in conse-
quence the m aeting was q protracted one
for twelve hours with no intermission fol
food. Various aspects of the case and
several questions involved were discussed
in all their bearing It. was finally
agreed that the spinners should accep
the reduction of seven pence in the pounc

again start their spindles Monday, and
this has ended one of the longest strike.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-Secretary
Hoke Smith today rendered his first land
decision. 1t was the case of the South
ern Pacific Railroad Company, and in
volved the question OF the right of that
company to lands within its granted
limits and the limits Of the grant to the
Atlantic and Pacif: The railroad com
pany basing its claims on the ground
that the latter company never complied
with the requirements Of its grant in the
matter of locating it's road and the
forfeiture of its grant in 1886. The
Secretary holds, however, that the
Southern Pacific Company had acquired
no title to the lands in question under
its grants. This decision operates to
open these lands, aggregating many
thousands of acres in southern Cali
fornia, to settlement and entry. The
commissioner of the general land office
was accordingly directed to take such
steps as may be necessary to restore them
to public domain.
