sitiOns as Army Stan Officers.
WASHINGTON, May 16.-vice President
Hobart was with the President to-day as
soon as the latter left the breakfast table.
Other callers from the Capitol were not
long in arriving. President Mckinley had
scarcely parted with Mr. Hobart before
Representative Cannon, chairman of the
committee on appropriations, was ushered
in with friend, and close behind him were
Senator Turpie, of Indiana, Representatives
Shattuck, Of Ohio, and Sperry, of Connecti-
cut. There were some interesting changes
of views on the situation between the Pres
ident and those who saw him, but to all Of
them he stated that there were no impor-
tant dispatches, and also suggested that it
was a little early for news. Secretary Long
made similar responses to some of the SEN
ators and representatives, who were numer-
Gus, not only at the White House during
the forenoon, but also at the War and Navy
Departments. Representative Walker, of
Virginia, presented the sons of General
Pickett who made the famous charge at
Gettysburg, and of General Longstreet,
who are anxiouss for staff appointments.
The President gave the two young men as
surance that they doubtless would be pro-
vided for. General Walker also is anxious
to go to the front himself. The President
said that if General Walker continued to
insist on going he would give him COM
mand If possible, but urged that his serv-
ices were needed in Congress. A delegation
of prominent Louisianians, headed by Rep
resenative Meyer, urged on the President
authority for the formation of a complete
regiment of immunes from that State for
service in Cuba. The President was great
ly pleased by the tender of their services, as
the creation of organizations of immunes
has been desired all along. 1t is possible all
will be accented
