10 fas EDITOR or tts REGISTER:
SrR-There is considerable breeze in
the city this evening at the rejection Of
Mr.. Peckham. 10 is universally be-
lieved that the President will go out
side the Empire State TO select a man.
The friends of Senator Gray are urg-
ing his claim. but later this
evening there is almost a united
desire that Judge w. g. Ben
nett, Of West Virginia, should re-
ceivs the nomination, and IL his name
was sent in be would be confirmed sim
stanter." The name Of Judge Bennett
is drawing strong support from infuen-
tial Democratic Senators aud the belief
that he would receive combined strength
OF an factions and would not be antag-
onized by Senator Hil leads to feel
ing that his choice would be the best
means OF Quiet,ng the troubled waters.

During the entire period OF business
depression, the effects OF which have
been more or less manifest over the
entire State for the last half year, there
has never been a stop, even for an In
slant, in the march OF progress OF the
capital city. Business, it is true, has
not been quite as brisk in some lines,
merchants have not sold quite as many
goods as in former years, but the gem
eral prosperity of the city has been I'M

THE New York World shows an ex-
smplary spirit OF unselashness in its
fight to have coal retained on the free
list, In view Of it's crusade against the
use or soot-breedlng soft coal in New
York. The World evidently, does
not want free coal for the benefit OF its
own locality, for Of course it knows
shat hard coal is already free and that
soft coal alone bears a duty.

JUICE w C.. BENNETT, Of Weston,
IS prominently urged for appointment
as Justice BLATcHFORD's successor on

President CLEVELAND could hardly do
better. He has failed twice TO supply
the vacancy from his own State. HORN

turned down by the shrewd
work OF HINT To is GER
tail that any other New
Yorker who suits Mr.. CLEvELEND will
not suit Mr. Hun, and the latter seems

So tho best thing Mr.. CLEVELAND can
do now is look elsewhere; and he will
not hnd more promising field for judi
cial material anywhere than West Nir-
rinia. Judge BENNETT would make a
solendid Justice OF the supreme Court
and 90. also, would judge ADAM c..

tributing TO Senator MORGAN, OF Ala

~ right and partly wrong. Cox used
the term in its proper sense;

fire is also quite close to Mount Hope
cemetery and also the Catholic ceme-

bringing 1t nearer. Washburn has been
enveloped in cloud of smoke all day.
The following dispatch was received
from Saxon:
Forest fires are raging about here.
Water is being hauled by running
teams. Citizens are moving ont OF
their homes with all possible speed. If
the wind continues for few hours the
town is lost. =
Saxon is small town on the North

the main support Saxon was threat

that the timber about there was suffi-

danger.
