M'KINLEY's DILEMMA.

Poor Mr.. Mckinley Is now between the
his complete surrender in everything ap-
pertaining to appointments to office, TO
his manager. Mark Hanna
Hitherto. every nod towards any man
from Mark Hanna meant that he would
very soon receive his commission and pull
down the plums for four years. This
foboggan upon which Marks fayorltes
have been gliding into office has struck a
snag and It Is liable to have large, ir-
regular ori1ce knocked In H. If not, then

cabinet

patronage bark has bumped Is the office
of collector of customs at New Orleans.

came so because he was fired out OF office

BANKERS, lawyers aud professional men OF
that city have sent petition to Score

instigatlon OF Hanna, has already been
signed by Mckinley and sent to secre-
tary Gage for his approval is not only
being held up by him, but he says he viii

Thus Is Mr.. Mckinley "up against it,
