CANTON. o., Feb. 22.-Tho President-elect TO
manned indoors all day. There would have boon
reason enough for a well man to do a. much, for
outside 1t was all rain and sleet and gloom. This
was the time set apart for q farewell to the
Major to be given by the Business Mems Asso-
citation Of this city, but tho demonstration was
not made.
Callers were few at the Mckinley homo. Tho
few who did go were not received. Ono Of the
best known visitors Of the day was M. II. De
Young of California He was on his way home,
having been in the East on business. His call
WAS merely one of friendship. he said, but he
WAS not allowed to see the Major.
Judge De Haven and the other Californians
who were to arrive here did not get further than
Cleveland. They had no invitation and did not
care to make a useless trip. The Prcsident-elec
was not in such good condition to-day as he was
several days ago. but the attending physician
says that rest will bring him about all right.
The Major meantime is finishing his inaugural
address.
Another caller here to-day was DR.. John Enan-
der OF Chicago. He is an influential Swede, and
seeks TO no sent as Minister to his native coun-
try. He carried many Inducements, but did not
reach the Major with them.

Brookiyn Republicans Appointed In vislatisa
OF Law Can't Draw Their Pay.
ALBANY. Feb. 22.-It is proposed TO introduce
in the Legislature this week q bill logalizing tho
appointment Of over 4 hundred employees In
Brooklyn city departments who the Appellate
Division Of the Supreme Court has decided were
appointed in violation OF the civil service pro-
visions Of the State Constitution. The court In
its decision held that such positions should have
been filled only after a competitive examination,
and that the court finally is the only authority
which can determine what positions arc prao-
ticable TO ill by competitive examinations. It
had been thought that tho Governor or Legisla-
turo could determine this last question. A bill
providing for the payment OF the salaries of
those city employees In Brooklyn who tho
courts have declared wcre employed in violation
Of the civil service would, in the opinion Of civil
service reformcrs, be unconstitutional, as was
the bill, which Gov. Morton refused to sign, pro-
viding for the payment Of ffty-ive canal en-
ployees whom State Superintendent Of Public
Works Aldridge appointed in violation Of the
civil service.
Prominent civil service reformers propose that
a law BE- passed, holding. appointing Officers re-
sponsible for tho salaries of employees APP
pointed In violation OF the Civil Service
law. As II Is, II Is not thought that
the Brooklyn city employees appointed In
violation OF the Civil Service law VIII be able to
receive their salaries under the provisions Of tho
they would secure an injunction restraining
the payment OF their salaries under any law
passed by the Legislature, on the ground that
such a law Is unconstitutional.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 22.-Capt. Julius A. Pal
mer. at present acting Secretary to the ex-Queen
OF Hawaii. has furnished tho following state
ment:
"Liliuokalani did not ask for specific appoint
ment with the President; having simply advised
him Of her arrival and wish to call, she was off,
cially invited by Mr.. Cleveland within an hour
of the receipt Of her note. Her call upon Mrs.
Cleveland was voluntarily arranged by that lady
without the least hint from any one representing
Liliuokalani. No other communication Of any
kind or nature has ever passed between the Ha-
waiian party and the Executive office; all state
ments to the contrary are absolutely false. Her
neglect to visit the Capitol was caused by q So
we're cold which detained her ut her apartments
two weeks, at the close of which executive SEES.

persons from whom the warnings come, nor is

But her removal from one hotel to another was
occasioned by tho prior engagement OF tho apart

and from this cause only.
