democrats Keep Up the Fight Against
Bynum's Nomination.
WASHINGTON, April 5.-The execu-
tive session of the senate was again de-
voted to the consideration of the nomi-
nation OF Hon. w. D. Bynum for the
office of appraiser Of merchandise at
New York. Senator Fairbanks made
strenuous efforts to secure confirmation,
but the opposition pleaded for time to
allow further consideration Of the nom.
nation. The sta tement was made that
Bynum was opposed by all the Demo-
cratic, Silver Republican and Populist
senators, and the arguments in opposi-
tion which have heretofore been made
We're repeated. The Democrats charged
again that the selection was contrary to
the spirit of the law providing for the
distribution of the members of the board
OF appraisers among the different par
ties and said that if the president de-
sired to take care Of Mr.. Bynum he
should be given an Office as Repub-
ican, the president having many such
places at his disposal. ..... .

QUEEN AT DUBLIN.

Sets Foot on Irish Soil the First Time in
Thirty-Nine Years.
DUBLIN, April Queen Victoria
landed in Ireland during the morning
for the first time in 80 years.
The Decentralization from the royal
yacht was accomplished at 1880. The
commander of the forces in Ireland, the
Duke of Connaught, the lord ieuten-
ant, Earl Cadogan, and their stats,
greeted her majesty, and the ride from
Kingstown to Dublin commenced in
splendid weather and before huge and
good natured crowds.
The queen appeared to be much af-
fected by the warmth Of her welcome.
Mr.. Burke, son of the former city
sword bearer, took the place Of Mr..
James Egan, the sword bearer who had
refused to oficiate, but the lord mayor
himself handed the sword and keys to
her majesty, who touched them.
The ceremonies at the city gate were
most picturesque. London's jubilee
lord mayor, Sir George FaudelP Phillips,
declared that the reception and cere-
monies were the finest he had ever
seen, far SURPRISING those Of the great
jubilee.
Dublin went wild with delight over
the excellence with which all the ar.
rangements were carried out. Not one
black flag or disloyal motto marked the
line Of march and the popular enthu-
siasm buried all political feeling for the
time. Before landing, the queen, who
looked remarkably well, asked for a
bunch of shamrocks. They were secured
and throughout the day she wore them
pinned upon he: breast.

DEWEY'S CANDIDACY,

p Said 1t Is Scheme of Eastern Democrats
to Head OF Bryan.
NEW YORK, April 5.-A Washington
dispatch to The Evening Telegram says:
It has developed that the announce
ment of Admiral Dewey's candidacy is
, part of well laid plan of Eastern
Democrats to head off Mr.. Rryan's
domination. The Evening Telegram's
dispatch continues:
The admiral will not admit that there
is any organization behind his candi.
dacy or state whether he would like the
Republican or Democratic nomination.
.AHe told me today that he was in the
hands of the American people, and was
as willing to obey orders from them as
he has been from his superiors in the
navy. He said:
II have every reason to believe that
there is popular demand for my nom-
lination. decline to say whether am
Democrat or Republican. want
to be the peoples candidate. I fully
realize that in announcing my willing
ness to become a candidate that my
troubles are beginning, but man who
has the interest of his country at heart
Jcannot escape his share of them, and
am willing to risk all that may come
to me.
From every state in the Union, and
from all classes of the people, I have
received gratifying evidence of desire
for my nomination. The demand has
become so general that I felt con-
A. strained to give serious consideration to
the matter, and although I had pre-
viously stated that I would not accept q
nomination, conditions have SO changed
in the few past months, that I can no
longer, as loyal American citizen, say
that will not obey the will of the
American people, if their decision
fshould be that am suitable candidate
for the presidency. Beyond confirming
my announcement there is nothing
more that can properly say at pres
ent."

WAsMNaroN, April g. Admiral
Dewey expresses himself as very much
gratified over the manner in which his
announcement to be candidate for the
presidsnoy has been received by his
friends.
Many kilograms have come during
the day, particularly from the South,
and some from the far West, endorsing
his course and saying he would have
the support of the dsners in the cam
paisn he will make. The admiral was
In excellent hunor and talked interest.
Iingly Of number Of things in connec-
ton with his proposed candidacy,
though concerning questions asked him
he aaN he would soon make q public
statement.
''Why is it, Admiral Dewey, that you
have decided to become candidate for
|. the presidency" was asked.
Really, on that point, he answered,
''there is nothing to add to what has
already been printed on the subject. If
the American people want me to be
their candidate for this high Office I
shall gladly serve them
Silent Regarding His Plans.
''Now tell me something about your
plans for the FUTURE" suggested the re-
porter.
ION that point am not yet prepared
to make any statement" answered the
admsal. II am consulting with my
6sands as to the proper course to be
1 taken. When the proper time comes I
will make statement as to my plans
for the future, which will be very soon
Further than that do not care to say
anything regarding them"
Much comment is INDUCED in az to
what party he expects to receive the
nomination from. To such questions
4 he prefers not to make public state
ment. From those who are acquainted
with his views, however, it is learned
that he does not expect the nomination
from the Republican party. It is said
the admiral has decided opinions on the
subject of the Porto Rican tariff and the
Philippines, but he declined to discuss
them ON the plea that this is not the
tproper time for that.
"What will your platform be-" next
to which party he expected to be identi-
fed with, probably, was the most fire.
quent question put to the admiral. To
this, however, he was nOn-committal.
