Some officials have gone even so far as
to deny that there is anything to prevent
the cordial rece option of Angel at Con-
stantinople, but their denial is merely
technical, hinging on the difference be-
tween the words ''formaP' and "unoffi-
cial," as applied in the Turkish repre-
sentations.
At the Turkish legation less equivocal
explanations were given. 1t was said
there that the State Department had been
asked if certain statements attributed to
Angel were true. What these statements
are cannot be definitely ascertained
further than that they are said to have
been contained in newspaper interview
with Angel and in a speech delivered by
him. Other things relating to Angel
with which the Porte is dissatisfied con-
Germ his reported connection with
religious organizations that have freely
criticized the attitude of the Turkish
Government regarding Armenia and the
massacres of Christians.
There is a conflict in Ithe inform alton
obtainable as to the manner in which the
Porte's inquiry was brought to the atten-
ton of this Government. What appears
to be the most reliable explanation is that
Terrell cabled that the Porte was contem.
plating refusal to receive Angel, but be-
lore taking action had started an inquiry
to ascertain whether he was correctly
quoted. Angel came to Washington this
week and told Secretary Sherman just
what he had said and meant in the inter-
view. This explanation was given the
Turkish Minister here for transmission to
the Minister of Foreign Affairs at Con-
stantinople.
The State Department processes to be-
lieve that Angel will be persona grata to
the Porte. but the Turkish legation qualities
with the word "probable" its statement
that Angel will be acceptable to the
Sultan.

John T. Dare VIII Be Appointed an
Appraiser, Instead OF Post
master.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 29.-Con-
gresham Loud has decided to recommend
John d. DAILY as postmaster of San Fran
cisco to succeed McCoppin. Mr.. DAILY is
well known in San Francisco, having fig
ured somewhat in politics. 1t will be re-
membered that he was candidate for
Assessor six or seven years ago and was
defeated for the Office by Mr.. Siebe. Daily
conducted milk business for many years
and is said to have acquired some wealth
in that business. He resides in the Mis-.
sion.
Representative Loud was seen by
CALL correspondent tonight and
positively declined to affirm or deny
the truth of the report that he
had decided to recommend DAILY. Never
theless THE CALL correspondents in
formation is positive and reliable. Loud
called on the President to-day to urge that
General Romualdo Pacheco be appoin ted
to the Argentine Republic mission, but
while at the White House took occasion
to speak to the President about the post
mastership.
President Mckinley is ready to appoint
McCoppin's successor in few days. 1t is
the custom for the Republican Congress
man to name the Posrmasters in his own
district, especially in his own city, and
Senator Perkins, who is disposed to be as
liberal as possible. has already said that
he will not make any objections to any
good man who may be named by Loud.
John d. Spreckels, as stated in last
nights dispatches is in favor of John T.
Dare for the postmastership and as he
and Loud are entirely friendly and har-
monious it may be that Mr.. Spreckels'
wish will be gratified, as President Nc
Kinley, as well as both Senator Perkins
and Representative Loud, realize that
Mr.. Spreckels. as National Committee
man, is entitled to equal recognition. 1t
is certain therefore tina: if Dare is not ap-
pointed postmaster he will be made ap-
praiser.
1t is expected that Perkins, Loud and
Spreckels will have a conference to- NOR
row or Monday. 1t is certain the Post
mastership lies between Daily and Dare.
Messrs. Backus, Dodge, Mckinley, Bas-
sett and Stetson are not in it.
Representative Loud has received some
communications from McCoppin's bonds
men urging that the appointment be made
as soon as possible. One of the bondsmen
is ex-senator FELTON,. Meanwhile Deputy
Postmaster Doyle is conducting the Office.

MADRID, SPAIN, May 29.-The Heraldo

which is preparing to intervene in behalf
of ''perfidious Cuba" in the course of
which it asks: "Will Spain swallow the
pill, and what will be the consequence of
this sad denouement of the Cuban ques-
tion?'
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 29-The
Spanish Minister has reported to the State
Department that another filibustering ex-
pedition got away presumably Th ursday
night on the steamer Dauntless some
where between Charleston and Savannah.
The expedision, according to the Min
ister's statement, was composed OF sixty
men, who were to be transferred at sea to
another vessel. He said the cargo con-
sisted of guns and ammunition and a
Gatling gun was included. Another eI-
ped itlon is reported to be preparing at
Miami, near Cape Florida. Everything
indicates that the friends of Cuba here are
un precedentedly active.
1t was stated at the White House to-day
that Commissioner Calhoun intends leav-
ing Havana Tuesday or Wednesday of

tor Lindsay of Kentucky, who was mem
Der of the sugar Investigating committee
in 1894, said to-day he would move to
strike from the tariff bill the provision
for differential rate to sugar refners.
The Senator added:
THAT is the only way to rid the Senate
of the scandal which periodically appears
l doubt if the differential rate can be
stricken off, however, for / believe there
is sufficient influence in the Senate to
hold up the tariff unless the differential is
allowed. / know it was the case when
the Democratic bill was pending. In nv
opinion nothing would be gained by an
other investigation. The same limitations
will exist and em barrass the committee as
hampered the last. There is but one way
we can get at the bottom of this affair.
That is by voting down the sugar trust
differential."
Senator Jones of Nevada, chairman of
the committee which controls the contin-
gent expenses of the Senate, to which was
referred the Tillman resolution for an in
yestigation of the reports of speculation
in sugar stocks by Senators, said to-day
he thought the resolution would be favor

stitute aluminium or nickel for the bronze now
which is inconveniently small, and to avoid the
trouble arising from the similarity in size and
color of the new coins to the silver ones by
punching round or square holes in them, as is
done with Chinese cash. This plan would have
made necessary a complete change in the de-
