The antI-snappers seemed to think yester-
day that they had something to smile over.
Some Of their leaders have made recent nil
Rrimages to Washington. and, although they
are rather silent as to the results. enough was
made known yesterday afternoon to warrant
the assump ption thatim m edistely on the return
OF President Cleveland from his Southern trip.
he will I'LL tho i'm portant Federal Offices here in
New York. Indeed those who have had recent
conferences with those close to the President
in Washington said that 1t looked now as IL
the appointmentsw would come along next week.
Furthermore. II was asserted that John ID.
Herman OF Utica would positively be made
United States District Attorney for the South
ern District. to MI the vacancy created by the
retirement OF Ed ward Mitchell
William II. Grace aud his friends are not
partial to Mr.. Herman. They favor the ap-
pointmont either OF Francis NJ. Scott. the
doughty hero OF the +. NJ. l. campaign, or
Wallace McFarlane. one Of the Fairchild Gus
tom House Investigators. II does not appear
that Nelson Smith Of Tnmnany has any show.

Of Mr. herman. But other elements among
the anti ,isnappsrs the friends 81 s1;sset T. stnry
'"a Hnother interesting bit Of information was
that the President has practically decided on
Off,cer in place OF Theodore Is. Willis. Further
than TO say that this anti i-snapper will como
from New York city the nti.snarpers will not
speak. The pilgrims will, say nothing Of who
are slated for United States Marshal or for n
ternal revenue Collectors. They sodly said that
il has practically been decided not TO appoint
q Surveyor in place OF George w. Lyon. who
was retired three months ago A bili, " Is
said. has already been prepared sbolishlng
Surveyor since 170a. but the Fairchild Com
mission recommended that the office be abol-
ished. IL will require successful legislation at
Washing ngtou to bring this about. -

their ospects yesterday that they gave some
