The Long Island railroad company
decided that it is impractical BILE" to
employ women any longer as station
agents, and has issued an order to them
that their services Will be dispensed
with after thirty days. The regulars
along the line will miss the smiling
faces and warm welcome they have
grown accustomed to, but the wives
and sweetuearts of many a conductor
will be only TOO glad of the change. 1t
Is more than suspected that they are
the cause of it.

white, at the same time becoming hard

Like glass, it is poor conductor OF

this account is well adapted for roofs.

BRYAN WILL TRY AGAik.
Regarded as the National Leader of the
Democracy and HIS denomination in
1900 Assured

NEW YORK, N. Y, Feb. %. - The
visit of William j. Bryan to this city has
brought out that from the hour of his
nomination at Chicago he has been con-
sidered the National leader of the Demo-
cratic party and that there is disposition
to regard him as such from now on until
the campaign of 1900. I. is certain that
Bryan's friends control the National Com
mittee and that they cannot be unseated
until the next National convention of the
party names their successors.
Bryan, it was ascertaineu yesterday, has
become greatly interested in the pros
pective battle this fall for Mayor OF
this battle is fought on the lines of the
Chicago platform the Republicans can be
defeated In the canvass.
Bryan's visit brought out also the inter-
esting information that the Brooklyn
Democrats are exceedingly jealous of
Tammany Hall. 1t is said for the Brook
lyn Dem ocrats that they will not be swai-
lowed up by Tammany Hall in the matter
OF a candidate for Mayor of Greater New
York, but that Tammany will be forced TO
appoint conference committee so that a
candidate agreeable to all shall be selected.
Tammany and the Brooklyn Democrats
will follow their ancient custom i'll muni-
cipal contests of indorsing the platform
OF the party adopted at the last National
convention. Tammany has always done
this, ana 80 has the Kings County
machine, and it was ascertalned that there
will be no departure from the rule and
that the candidate of the two organiZa-
tions, after he has been agreed upon in
conference, will be presented to voters OF
the Greater New York on the Chlca go plat
form.

CALIFORNIA MEMBERS CONFER.
Discusses Federal Patronage-Major NC
Laughhn Wants Hothmg-Chnnces
of Some of the Aspir0HfS.

WASHINGTON, u. c.. Feb. 2S.-Sena-
tor Perkins and Representatives Louo'
Barham and Hilborn. the only California
members of the present Congress who Will
be members of the next, held conference
to-day to consider applications for ap-
pointment to the various Federal posi-
tons. They met at 10 O'Clock at the ofhce
of Senator Perkins and remained in ses-
sion until 2 o'clock.
Major Frank Mclaughlin. charm an OF
the California State Central Committee,
was present The delegation was unanl-
nous in its desire to tender Major Nc
Laughlin some good Federal appoint
ment. They believed that his services to
the party entitled him 10 recognition. and
he might have secured an Endorsement
for foreign m s ion or consular position,
or mint superintendent or collector OF
customs or internal reveAue; in fact, he
might have chosen his Office and the Cali
fornians would have recommended him
for it, but Major Mclaughlin firmly de-
clined to be considered al applicant for
any appointment.
II do not want any reward for my SER
vices. do not want any Office and Will
not accept any," he declared.
The applications Of Californians for ap-
poirtment to the Mint superintendency.
Collector of Customs, Collector of Inter
nal Revenue, Marshal, Surveyor, etc.,
were then considered, but no conclusions
were reached.
The name of Frank Coombs for reap
poin tment as Minister to Japan was then
canvassed. 1t is understood that Repre-
sentative Loud was firmly of the opinion
that no one who had formerly been IN the
service of the Government should be re-
appointed. Nevertheless, THE CALL cor
respondent was assured tonight that the
delegation would unite on MIR. Coombs
for appointment to the japan mission,
which he formerly held.
It seems that William B. Hamilton does
not care to be Naval Officer 10 succeed
Colonel John P. Irish. Neither does he
appear,,to desire the Mint superintendency,
marshalshlp, collectorship of customs nor
that of internal revenue. Mr.. Hamilton will
be content with some subordinate posi-
ton. He does not seem to want an Office
in which he would have patronage to be-
stow. 1t is certain. however, that he will
be recon mended for some good place, and
his gooo friend, Senator Perkins, will see
that he gets it.
Colonel John P Irish will be allowed to
serve the remainder of mis- term as Naval
Otficer-over year yet. George w. Stone

tive Bowers at the Congressional Hotel.

NEW YORK, N. Y, March LA spe-
ciaI to the World from New Orleans says:
John r. Drexel, the millionaire, with his
family and party of friends who started
from Philadelphia to New Orleans in his
yacnt to attend the Mardi Gras festivities.
is now more than seven days overdue.
Nothing has been heard from the party
since it left Philadelphia. Diligent in
quiry has been made at every port be-
tween here and Philadelphia, but nothing
has been heard of the party.
Samuel A. Cramp, the shipbuilder, vino
is at the Cosmopolitan with his wife for
Mardi Gras, does not understand why his
fellow townsman and party should be so
long on the journey from Philadelphia to
New Orleans. The Drexel party engaged
rooms at the st. Charles before starting.
