The President also sent in large num-
Der of appointments which were made dur
ing the recess of the Senate and which
have heretofore been announced.
The Senate confirmed the following nom
be controller of the currency; John w. Mes
bit, of Pennsylvania, to be pension agent
at Pittsburg, Pa.
The Senate also confirmed a large num-
Der of promotions In the army. the most
important being the following: Col. Samuel
Breck, assistant adjutant general, to be ad-
Jutant general with rank of brigadler gem
eral; Captain Henry o. Sheldon Heistand,
Eleventh Infantry to be an assistant ad1u-
tant general with rank OF major, Col. VIII
liam H. Bell, assistant commissary general
of subsistence to be commissary general of
subsistence with rank of brigadier general.
The nomination of Attorney General Nc
Kenna to succeed Justice Field on the SUI
preme bench will not be acted upon by the
Senate until after the Christmas holidays.
The nomination was referred to the commit
tee on judiciary in to-day's executive ses-
sion, but Senator Hoar chairman of that
committee. stated that he would not ask
the committee to consider the nomination
until after the recovering of the Senate in
January. IT does not appear that the delay
i'm considering Mr.. McKenna's nomination
is ore of opposition that is reported to exist
against his continuation so much as to the
fact that the committee on judiciary habit
ually considers nominations to the Supreme
bench with more elaboration than is exer
cised by that or any other committee in the
case of other nominations. AS the Senate
will adjourn on Saturday for the holidays,
action would be necessary within the two
days left, and this time instead of being
sufficient for mature elaboration, would be
considered insufficient for even the most or
binary nOu1inati tons.

MIR. Riche rdsOn May Become n Million
aire Through Careless Legislation.
NEW YORK, Dec. 16-A dispatch from
Washington says: Representative James d.
Richardson of Tennessee stands to become
multi millionaire as the result of I'M
guarded legislation slipped through Con-
gress in an appropriation bill during the
closing hours of the last regular session.
The Fifty-third Congress authorized the
House committee on printing to compile and
publish the messages and papers of the
Presidents from Washington down to the
present time" The total edition was crigi-
nally calculated at twenty Thousand and
estimated to comprise four volumes, but
later edition was increased to thrty-six
thousand and the limit of volumes placed at
eleven. In the sundry civil service appropri-
alton bill. rushed through in the last hours
of the Fifty-fourth Congress. in the next to
the last paragraph and preceded by page
of legitimate legislation occurs this SEN
tence: THAT the public printer be, and he
is hereby authorized and directed to make
ana deliver to James ID. Richardson. the
compiler of Messages and Papers of the
Presidents without cost to him. duplicate
electrotype plates from which the compila-
ton. Messages and Papers of the Presi-
dents, was published.
Mr.. Richardson has closed contract with
New York firm to publish his compilation
on royalty of 81 per volume. This means
that Mr. Richardson will receive for himself
$11 for each set sold of his compilation in
excess of the thirty-siX thousand sets eu-
mated that during the next twenty years
there will be sold by the firm securing these
plates. at the lowest calculation 500 600 sets.
Mr. Richardson said he expected to make
something out of the privilege that Congress
had given him, but what he did derive
would not, he thought. be anything more
than fair compensation for the great
amount of research and labor which he
spent I'm compiling the volumes.

To ReguInte DIVORCES.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Representative
Ray, of New York, has introduced bill
regulating absolute divorces and declaring
marriages void in certain cases in the Dis
trict of Columbia and the Territories. The
object is to make the divorce laws enacted
by Congress conform to the law of New
York as the highest grade of the State
codes and to install the proposed uniform
marriage and divorce law to be obtained by
constitutional amendments. But one cause
for absolute divorce is allowed-adultery-
the innocent party may remarry; legal sep
aration without permission of remarriage
may be granted for drunkenness, cruelty or
desertion, and marriage may be declared
void in cases where a former partner is
living. lunacy at marriage, matrimonial in
capacity, or lack of legal consent. The law
is intended to cover cases in Oklahoma

ALLEGED BRITISH GRAB.
Mexico Investigating the Reported
Seizure of ClippertOn Island.

CITY OF MEXICO, Dec. 16.--Some time
ago, when it was rumored that a British
war ship had seized Clipperton island, local
papers took the matter up, and there was
some agitation over the reported forcible
occupation of Mexican SOIL The Foreign
Relations Department asked the War De-
partment to send an expedition to the, ISL
and to investigate if the British really had
taken possession. Four days ago the COR
vette Ell Democratic, Capt Teofolio Genesta,
left Mazatlan for the island.
Should it prove that the island which Mex
leo claims as belonging to her has been
seized by the British the matter will be
taken up automatically for the purpose of
recovering the territory Mexico will for
mally request the restoration of the island.
No one here expects any serious difficulty
over the matter, and there is as yet no
definite official information in possession of
the government regarding the alleged seiz-
ure of Clipperton. At the Foreign Relations
Department to-day 1t was said that the OBJ
ject of the expedition was not warlike but
merely to ascertain the true condition of
affairs. The same thing was said at the
War Department. There is no disquietude
over the matter here. The newspapers,
however, are likely to make much of the
seizure If 1t turns out to be a fact, for there
is a sentiment among Mexican people that
England unjustly acquired Bolize, or Brit
ish Honduras, from this country.
me Mexican Herald eullOrldlly says: Eli
ropean nations are looking forward to the
time when, by the weakness of the great
Republic which champions the Monroe doc
trine, they may proceed under one pretext
or another to carve up South and Central
America. III the American people allow
themselves to be beguiied into unprepared-
ness for war they will assuredly be caught
all unready by vigilant Europe and their sea
power destroyed, whereupon Latin America
will be seized as fox does a fat capon.'
The same paper remarks that Diazs doc
trine, which cOntemplateS the eventual
of European control, is much broader than
the Monroe doctrine, and will become a
principle of action of the twentieth century.
