WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.
Breezy Gossip on Various Topics
From the Nations apital.

President Mckinley's decision to
abandon the rest Of his trip, on ac-
return to Washington as soon as the
physicians think she is well enough to
stand the journey, caused no surprise
in Washington, where everybody
knows the devotion of the president to
his semi-invalid wife. AS soon as her
breakdown was announced the aban-
donment of the trip was expected.
The members of the cabinet in Wash
ington deeply sympathize with the
president, and with Secretary Long,
whose daughter is i'll at Colorado
Springs, where she has been living for
a year or two, and Secretary Gage has
an added cause for sorrow in the seri-
Gus illness of Mrs Gage.
Secretary Root has issued orders to
all the heads of bureaus in the war de-
partment to reduce their clerical force
to Il peace basis as rapidly as possible,
as it is his intention to dispense with
all employees on what is known as the
Temporary roll" which was establish
ed to handle the increased clerical
work of the department caused by the
Spanish war and kept up by the revolt
in the Philippines, by the close of the
present fiscal year, of which only six
weeks remain. The army in the Phil
ippines will make considerable extra
clerical work for long time, but now
that there isn't the occasion to rush
things that was necessary while fight
ing was going on, Secretary Root
thinks the regular force of the depart
ment ought to be able to handle the
work.
Ohio republicans have been aroused
to Indignation at what they resent as
Misrepresentation of Governor Nash
in recent publications. One of them
w. O. Tolford, whose home is in
Columbus-said: 1.-Two nCnsensical
stories have been circulated about
Governor Nash. One is that the re-
publicans will not dare to nominate
him because of his opposition to that
prize fight at Cincinnati. Governor
Nash will not only be renOminated,
but he will be reelected. Every vote
he will lose in Hamilton county for
having stopped the prize fight will be
offset by ten votes gained in other
parts of Ohio. AS for the stories Of
Governor Nash having been piqued
because of lack of attention in Cali
fornia, no one who is acquainted with
the man will believe them. He is
most unassuming, dislikes ceremonies
and participation in functions, and is
about the last person who would COM
nlain because President Mckinley had
been the chief attraction to the eXclu-
sion of himself"
1t might be supposed that John R.

Mclean, who lives in Washington, yet
assumes to be leader of the Ohio
democrats, would find his CINCINNATI
paper the best medium for reaching
| the Ohio democrats, but ne made use
of "A Washington paper this week to
give them some advice about this
years campaign. He told them that
he would not ask the state convention
to endorse him for United States sena-
tor, and that he hoped no one would be
endorsed. and he tossed red rag tow
ard the Bryan bull pen by telling them
that above all things platform must
be adopted that will unite the demo-
Gratis. Right there wise Mr.. Mclean
stopped. He didn't attempt to say
what sort of a platform would unite
the democrats, for the very good reas-
on that he could not. II the national
platform is reaffirmed, the anti-Bryan
democrats will be exactly where they
were in last years national campaign.
and if the national platform is ignored
Mr.. Bryan can be counted upon to lead
the thick and thin Bryanites in oppos-
ing it as well as the ticket. Conse-
quently Nr. McLean's advice, while it
is doubtless good, isn't likely to be
productive of platform that will
unite the democrats.
Englishmen who will admit the SUI
periority of anything found outside Of
the 1.-THE tight little island" are rare,
but II. A. Campbell, wealthy resi-
dent of Norfolk, England. who came
to Washington on his private steam
yacht, is one of them. He said: Il

many things you are far. ahead Of us in
England, particularly in your electric
appliances. | have much admired
your fine street cars, your lifts or ele-
vators, and the mechanical appliances
in the shops, notably the cash regis
ters.'
Senator Quay's speech at the recep-
tion of the Pennsylvania State League
of republican clubs in Philadelphia, in
which he said: 81 will never again be
a candidate for nor accept any official
position,' was not q surprise to his
Washington friends. He would have
retired at the expiration of his last
term in the senate had his enemies
not made it impossible for him to do
so without loss of self respect.
Senator Platt of Connecticut, chair
man of the senate committee on Cuba,
came to Washington this week for the
purpose of comforting with Colonel
Edwards, chief Of the insular division
of the war department., on matters
pertaining to Cuba. Senator Platt
stated that no promises of changes in
tariff rates had been made to the Gu
bans by the administration or an, one
representing it. He added that he
had no doubt that some mutually ad-
vantageous and satisfactory reciproci-
ty agreement could be arranged,
through congressional action, soon af-
ter the independent Cuban govern
ment was organized.
