SCOTS EMULSION
MR.. CARLISLE BUSY.
No Important Appointments Expected Until
Next Week.


Secretary Carlisle refused this morning to
see any callers except Senators and members.
as he had great deal of Office work to do be-
fore going to the cabinet meeting at IL O'Clock
There were many statesmen who called, but
none Of them remained long.
1t is understood that little. il anything, will
be done in the matter of appointments before
next week. All the higher officials Of the de-
partment have sent in their designations. YER
bally or in writing. to take effect on the APP
pointment OF their successors
Most Of them are not eager to get ont Of Office,
but they understand that they must 60 and they
want to be as digniied and courteous about il
as possible
All the employers in the classified service
feel secure and are therefore in a happy frame
of mind.
The messengers and all those below the
classified service have an anticipatory feeling
OF the AK going through their necks.
NO IMPORTANT APPOINTMENTS THIS WEEK.
There will be no important appointments in
this department before Monday and it is prob
able that but few will be made before the lat
ter part of the week. There is a pressing
necessity, however, that some of the assistant
secretaries. auditors and the first controller
should be appointed, so that the other matters
can be got at
Another large room was added TO the quar-
tiers OF the appointment division today and
more clerks were put to work. All the work of
lndexing and filing the applications was pretty
well up at the close of the day yesterday, but
almost a wagon load Of papers were sent over
from the White House this morning. in addi-
ton to the many filed directly with the Score
tary, and the force of clerks was almo st
swamped.
THINK MASSACHUSETTS HAS ENOUGH.
A strong opposition has developed to the APP
pointment of Hamlin Of Massachusetts as assist
ant secretary of the treasury. Democrats from
other sections of the country complain that they
think Massachusetts is getting about enough
recognition for a republican state. and that
some of the democratic states should get some
OF the assistant secretaryships
Up to date Massachusetts, has got a cabinet
officer. an assistant secretary and the consul
general at London and it is said to be practically
settled that ex-Representative Coolidge of Mas
sachusets is to be minister to Switzerland. The
average run OF democrats feel that this ought
suffice for the time being. Should Hamlin be
appointed there would be considerable lament
ing and grumbling.
Notwithstanding the fact that it has been
discovered that there has been 81 900 a year
cut of the salary of each assistant secretary
there are many aftor the positions, but few only
have their applications on file in the appoint
ment room. The only applicants of record
there for these places are Marcus Haulon Of
New York and Chas. B. Morton of Maine.
There is a great deal OF interest taken in the
appointment of the commissioner of internal
revenue. EX-Representative Willis and Alta
Cox of Kentucky and Mr.. ]. s. Miller of West
Virginia are the men most talked Of for this
appointment. but OH the files of the department
the only candidate with papers fled is II. r.
Dixon Of New York.
SOME APPLICANTS FOR OFFICE.
Morris r. Wise of Arizona is an applicant for
the fourth authorship, and E. II. Murril Of
Virginia for the sixth authorship. Philip L.
German of Kentucky wants to be chief of tn g
bureau of engraving and printing, to
succeed Capt. Meredith. Ex-Commissioner
Nc Calmot and Myron Park Davis, both of
Pennsylvania. want to be commissioner of GUS
toms. There are an immense number of APP
plicants for internal revenue collectorships
and for places inspectors of steamboat Is.
Some OF the colectorships are considered
very desirable. 1t is understood that
ex-Representative Owen Scott has switched
off from his candidacy for the office Of
public printer and is to be the collector Of in
ternal revenue for the Springfield (Ill)
district. 1t is said also to be sure that Repre-
sentative Scott Wike of Illinois will get the first
controllershIp of the treasury.
