tempted to take Senior Mijares from the vessel. The
captain refused TO give him up. and Mr. llama, the
United States Consul at La Guayara sustained him.
Clearance papers were then refused the Philadelphia
and her captain sailed without them.
1t is scarcely thought that any remnant OF I'M
plcasanDess arising out Of this much exaggerated
affair be in any way responsible for Minister

especially in view OF the fact that the new Minister
from Venezuela to the United States has Just arrived

CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE.


Toward the White House.
new name has been sprung for the can
didacy Of the collector of the port of the city of
New York in the person Of Senator Poucher Of
Oswego. He will represent the anti-snappers
of the empire state, and during the past few
DAYS a quiet but determined still hunt has been
in progress to secure President Cleveland's
favorable consideration.
J. j. O'Donoghue of New York, who was a
candidate for this position during the last
Cleveland administration. and who is the rep
resentative of Tammsny Hail. has been thought
to have been in the lead. The entire contin-
gent Of interior New York state Cleveland
democrats, however, had united upon Sena-
tor Poucher He was the chairman of the anti
snapper state central committee and it was
he who made such a determined fight against
Senator Hills election to the senatorship. He
represents, consequently. the Cleveland machine
in New York state.
In view of the great pressure which will be
brought to bear upon Mr.. Cleveland to select
either one OF these candidates and of the
dilemma in which he may necessarily find him
self it is not improbable that he may be COM
PEELED to select a dark horse for this important
Office. Senator Poucher's friends have been
working very quietly in his behalf, believing in
the efficacy of a 'still hunt"
In spite of the opposition 20 the appointment OF
Mr.. Hamlin of Boston TO the position Of assist
ant secretary of treasury il Is stated upou What
seemed good authority that NJ. Hsrlir vii.
nevertheless. receive the appointment; AZ that
his name will be officially announced !, Few
days 1t is said that Mr.. Cleveland RS prUu-
ised Mr.. Hsmlin the position. notwithstanding
the fact that Massachusetts, u thought 80 have
received more than her share OF The federal
pap.
The city Of Pasadena, in Los Angeles COUNTY,
engirded by mountains and surrounded By
orange groves, is a republican stronghold, and
out Of a voting population of several hundred
there are but handful of democrats. Nearly
every one Of these opponents OF the party Of
tariff reform is a candidate for the postmaster
ship. Among the most prominent are E. C.
Webster. Charles Frost, Webster Watkins and
". W. Masters.
Frank E. Wright Of Toledo. Ohio. hopes that
he will secure the United States district attor-
neyship of that district because he is Endorsed
BY most Of the Ohio delegation. The other
candidates are 5. E Dodge of Cleveland and
Gen Finley. ex-member of Congress and a resi-
dent Of Bucyrus. George L. Johnson Of To-
ledo. who was collector of the port under
Mr.. Cleveland. wants to be reappointed and so
does George Hull of Lima. Benjamin F. Wade
of Toledo. United States marshal, hopes to
be appointed collector of customs.

MR.. BIsSELL TALKS.
He Explains to Anxious once Seekers Ex-
actiy What He Proposes to DO.

He Explains to Anxious Once Seekers Ex-
actiy What He Proposes to Do.
There are so many places in the gift Of the
Postmaster General that the pressure for APP
pointment Mr.. Bissell is very great This
fact has led him to formulate some general
rules in regard to appointments, which he has
announced privately and through the press
OF course he is going to carry out the policy OF
Mr. Cleveland and ex-ofice holders need not
apply to him. He also does not propose to dis
turb the present incumbents whose terms have
not expired except for cause. In these par
ticulars the policy to be pursued by the head OF
the Post Office Department is identical with
that which prevails in the other departments.
There are some other details which are peculiar
TO this department For example, Mr.. Bissell
desires to break up the practice, which, TO some
extent. has become general, OF men accepting
positions as postmasters and then treating the
places as side issues and turning over the
active management Of the Office to a substitute.
Mr. Bissen proposes that the men he appoints
~ postmasters shall be such in deed as
well a. in name. Ii does not appear to a casual
observer that there is anything very comph-
Gated in these conditions which have been laid
down for the regulation OF appointments to
Office under the Post Office Department. but
the fact Of the matter that there is a vast deal
of doubt in the minds of the average politicians.
Clouds and mists envelop the mental vision OF
such q large majority of the people who call on
the Postmaster General that he has established
Q school Of instruction and appointed himself
as chief lecturer and dean of the faculty. The
title Of the first lecture. which is delivered to
several crowded audiences between the hours
of 9 and 1. is Does the Postmaster General Say
What He Means or Mean What He Saws The
idea of this lecture course was suggested to the
Postmaster General by the universal uDcer-
tainty which seemed to prevail The course
will be continued until every doubling mind,
rs far as he can reach il, is satisfied.
Among the listeners Saturday were the
two Senators from Kentucky. who conveyed q
number of anxious citizens from the blue grass
state. Senator Harris was also there with a
number Of his constituents, and several other
states were represented to the extent OF the
seating capacity OF the ROOM The entire time
was devoted to the calculation Of the general
principles before mentioned, and there was no
time left for the consideration of those specific
and personal matters which lie SO near tn the
heart Of each one. When the room was emptied
other delegations filed in and the lecture Was
Continued
II is understood that Mr.. Bissell succeeded
in convincing all Of those who saw him that he
meant what be said and intended to carry out
his declarations.
