Judge Fairs Confirmation Objected
tO-GOy. Hughes Gets In
National Notes.

WARRINGTON, April 13.-The senate has
confirmed the following nomination:
Louis G. Hughes. of Arizona, governor
of Arizona.
The senate spent two hours yesterday
afternoon in executive session discussing
the nomination of Mr.. Eckels, of Illinois,
to be comptroller of the currency. The
Republicans protested against confirma-
tion on the ground that the nominee was
not man fitted by financial experience
for the place. The nomination of the
president was upheld by ca ling Demo-
drafts, and in the end the vote by which
voce.
A small snag was struck when the
nomination of Albert B. Fall to be asso-
cate justice of the supreme court of the
territory of New Mexico was taken up.
Objections were made, and under the
rules the case went over.
THE CHINESE AGAIN.
An adjourned session of the supreme
court OF the United States is likely to be
held in the latter part of May, to pass
upon the constitutionality of the Chinese
exclusion act. The protestations of
the Chinese government against the
drastic and arbitrary features of the act
have been so strong that the executive
department has decided to make an
early test case, with view to giving the
court an opportunity to declare the act
unconstitutional. if the justices SO re-
gard it.
KING CAUCUS.
Democratic senators in caucus have
ordered that the Roach case shall not
be investigated this session, but that
inquiry shall be made into the Martin
case.
GOLD SHIPMENTS.
Large orders for gold to 60 abroad
have again been placed.
However, there is no impression that
the bonds will be issued, as the feeling
exists that Secretary Carlisle will not
hesitate to dig into to gold reserve if
necessary. There is not the least appre-
hension among the officials of the depart
that the government will be embarrassed
should the secretary find himself called
upon to use the gold reserve. 1t is
thought that the banks will Immediately
come to the rescue of the department.
NITIoNAL NOTES.
Mr.. Cleveland is said to be in a guam
dairy over the coming monetary confer
ence in Europe.
Melville E. Stone is leading fight
against the appointment of Frank Lawler
as postmaster at Chicago.
The senate is considering the recent de-
cision of Judge Kicks, of Ohio, declaring
strikes illegal if they interfere with COM
merce.
The senators are hurrying through their
executive business preparing for an early
adjournment. 1t is probable that by the
first of next week the capital will have
settled down to summer calm.

A CHANGE In SIGHT.
Frontier Troops that May soon LIE
stationed mt Northern Points.

WASHINGTON, April 13.-The possibili-
ties are that there will be a number of
changes in station of troops during the
present spring. The quartermaster gen
eral has advised Gen. Schotield that he has
$60,000 to spare for army transportation,
and the latter is now figuring out how
this amount can be used to greatest ad-
vantage.
The regiments most entitled to change
of base by reason of length of service are
the 10th infantry, stationed in Colorado
and New Mexico, and the 14th infantry,
stationed in the state of Washington.
These two regiments have not had a
change for nearly ten years. 1t has been
the policy for the war department to
transfer troops every four years whenever
funds made it expedient to do SO.

WARRINGTON, April ia conference of
great Importance to silver producers oc-

ty, and the Venezuelan government will
make profit of $45O,O0O on seignorage.

proved. the Venezuelan government will
begin to buy silver, In addition to these

equivalent to our scent pieces, will also
