The confirmation of Dillon and 9TH
ers was announced in yesterdays HER
AID. 1t now seems that these con-
6rmations together with the other
Texas nominations may be held up in
definitely. The Associated Press has
sent out the following statement:
/ Washington, March I'm the ex-
Senator Hale moved to reconsider the
vote by which the nomination of Webs
ter Flanagan to be collector of internal
revenue for the third district of Texas
was confirmed yesterday: In entering
the motion Mr.. Hale said that he had
received letters saying that while Mr.
Flanagan had been confirmed, he nero
ly asked reconsideration in order to
permit an investigation. Senators
Mills and Chiffon of Texas opposed tb .
motion, saying while they did not agree
politically with Mr.. Flanagan, they
though his confirmation should stand.
The motion was not acted upon. Tie
nominations of Jas. Haynes to be col
lector ofcustoms for the district of
Corpus Christi and Moses Dillon to be
collector of customs for the district cf
Ell Paso were also included in Nr
Hsle's motion for reconsideration.
The Dallas News special adds: NJ.
Hale said that he was not present whyn
the gentlemen mentioned were con-
frmed yesterday and therefore had no
opportunity to int :rpose an objection
to them. He stated that he had re-
ceived letters from Texas which tore ed
him to ask that certain charges made
be inquired into. He confessed Il t
he knew nothing of his own knowledsye,
but acted as he was doing to get at the
truth of certain charges.
These charges were not sent out, for
they are not 'given to the pub 10.
What they are, therefore, no one can
know. It is not at all probable t:at
the motion to reconsider will amount
to anything. The senate may take up
the cases at the next executive ses-
sion or it may pass them along for
some time to come. There is no rule
in regard to the disposition of such
motions and no one can tell when this
one will be disposed of.
The nominations for the postmast re
were not acted on this morning. II is
understood that they will go thror gh
all right. 1t is certain as far as
O'Leary is concerned anyhow, and
most probably nothing will be brought
up against the other candidates,
although they have some opposition at
home,

this aft ,rnoon on q mining trip. He
remarked this morning that Kansas
paper had something to say about the
Spaniards in Mexico. 1t was claimedthat
they were of the wealthy and ipfluen-

things warm for Americans desirous
of investing in the republic. More
over, there were continual broils be-
tween Americans and the Spanish re-
sidents of the City of Mexico. He
learned also that the police were often
called upon to interfere. However,
there was to this to feel encouraged
over; President D'az was resolved to
put a stop to all this .foolishness down

lieve that the Spaniards would be al.
lowed to wreak their spite on Amer
