But Little Likelihood of His Being Ousted
just Yet.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Several times
during the past week Chairman Wilson
and Representative Tarsney, of Mis-
souri,, have been seen at the White
House. Their visits there caused
good deal of speculation, until it was
learned that they called on the presi-
dent to secure the appointment of
successor to ex-President Harri-
sons brother as collector of the
port of Kansas City. Scott Harrison
was appointed by Mr.. Cleveland last
year. The senate refused to confirm
him because the Missouri senators said
they had been ignored in the appoint
ment, as well as Representative
Tarsney, who lives in Kansas City.
Mr.. Tarsney is now pushing the
claims of Milton Welsh for the place.
Welsh served in the same regiment
with Wilson during the war, and
through the influence of his congress
man has secured strong supporter in
the chairman of the ways and means
committee. Secretary Carlisle, how
ever, is said to be strongly disposed in
favor of the retention of Mr.. Harrison.

THE COURSE OF A BILL

That Becomes Law Without the Presi.
dents Approval.
WASHINGTON, Aug. est is interest
ing at this time to note the course
taken by bill which becomes a law
without the presidents approving sig
nature, under the operation of the ten
day provision of the constitution that
| if any bill shall not be returned by the
president
WITHIN TEN DAYS
Sundays excepted after it shall have
been presented to him, the same shall
be law, in like manner as if he had
signed it, unless the congress by their
adjournment prevent its return, in
which case it shall not be law.
The last eighteen words of that pro-
vision indicate the reason why congress
did not adjourn as soon as it sent the
tariff bill to the president. BY adjourn
ing any earlier than the time it has
iXed-Tuesday- would have
killed its own act.
AS AN EXAMPLE OF.THE COURSE

law without the presidents approval,

the laws of this session of congress as
the law, there appears in a separate
lines: Received by the president, Au-
gust 8, 1884," And then follows, in
brackets. the following:
'INoTE By THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE.
The foregoing act, having been pre-
sented to the president of the United
States for his approval, and not having
been returned by him to the house of
congress in which it originated within
the time prescribed by the constitution
of the United States, has become a law
without his APPROVAL"
This mote by the department Of
state" results from compliance with
the law, which requires that when
ever bill, order, resolution. or note
of the senate and house of representa-
tives,
HAVING BEEN APPROVED BY THE PREsI-
DENT,
or not having been returned by him
with his objections, becomes a law or
takes effect, it shall forthwith be re-
ceived by the secretary of state from
the president and he shall
carefully preserve the originals"
In the official report that is made in
the Congressional Record of all bills a
somewhat different statement is made.

day stated that message (received

1t thus appears that the announce
ment comes to congress by message
from the president of the United
States" that bills have become laws
without the presidents signature.
