gave up the job of trying to see every
body. Another rush Is expected tomorrow.

Nearly every congressman remaining in
the city called on the President today,
either to say farewell or to try to push
some constituent into a position. To the
latter class the President said he would
make few appointments until September.
To the former class, as well as to the lat
ter, the President was in great good hu-
NOR over the passage of the tariff BILL
President Pleased With the Outlook.
1t can be stated on undoubted authority
that the President is highly pleased. He
looks forward to better times. He con-
siders the passage of the tariff bill a vim
dication of his course in calling an extra
session Many Of his friends advised him
against an extra session, claiming that
the Senate was not republican a tariff bill
could not be passed. The President said
then that the Senate must take that re-
sponsibilty.
Among the callers today were many
prominent in the silver faith. Senator Vest
said goodbye to the President. The fiery
little Missouri senator is said not to have
been in the White House before since the
days of the first Cleveland administration.
Senators Bate and Turley of Tennessee
and Senator Harris of Kansas were other
silver men of note who paid their respects.
Senator Jones of Nevada, who took a de-
cisive part in the tariff bill, was accorded
a warm interview by the President.
Along with the crowd of other noted men
who grasped the Presidents hand for
goodbye shake was Speaker Reed.
Senator Allison was another distinguish
ed caller. He was accompanied by Senator
Gear.
UnconRrmed Nominations.
The President may get chance to take
up unconfirmed nominations and to reap
point the unlucky before he goes away.
T. v. Powderly was one of the men whose
nomination was not confirmed. He was
at the White House today. He wanted a
recess appointment and a denomination in
the fall. He believes that by fall the op-
position to him will cease.
In the nominations which will prob
ably be made tomorrow will be c. L.
Sapp, to be collector of the Louisville, KY,
district. This is the nomination which
the democrats threatened to fight. Mr..
Sapp is the A. P. A. leader of Kentucky.
Mnrylnnders to Call.
Representative Mudd of Maryland called
at the White House today to arrange for
a call for himself and Senator Wellington
this afternoon or tomorrow morning. Rep
resentative Booze will probably be with
them, and they will discuss with the Prosi-
dent the question of a collector of internal
revenue for the Maryland district. The
trio mentioned will recommend the ap-
pointment of Geo. w. Tuck CT Annapolis.
Representatives. Mcintyre, Barber, Baker
and Mcdonald it will be remembered have
recommended the appointment of b. F.
Parlette. They have presented their side
of the matter to the President and Seore-
tary Gage and the other side is now to be
presented.
This is the case that the biggest fight Is
said to be on. A fight is on for other
places, but the collectorship is to be first
settled. Postmaster General Gary is said to
be behind the quartet which is backing
Parlette.
In Behalf of nn Editor.
Representative Ray of New York today
saw the President in behalf of Charles NJ
Dickinson, the well-known New York edi-
tor, whose friends have desired to see him
given q good place. The Russian mission
was suggested to the President as the
right one for Mr.. Dickinson, but the Pres
ident indicates that he has a man picked
out for that.

the case of Addie B. Holland, sentenced in
Michigan, November, 1895, to two years
