BAD BLOOD AMONG DEMOCRATS.
Mr.. Bryan Involved in the Acts of the
Closing Session.

Mr.. Bryan Involved in the Acts of the
Closing Session.
There is much bad blood among demo-
Gratis in Congress over the record they
made for their party during the closing ses-
sion. Their general surrender to the ad-
mInistration and the subsequent disappoint-
ment at the loss Of the river and harbor
bill. which many were eager to save at any
cost. has left sore spots. which became
more irritated and inftamed as the matter
is discussed.
The adoption OF the Philippine amend
ment, rather than that relating to Cuba,
followed by the loss of all the pork"
that democrats were looking out for, is the
subject of recrtminatiOn. Democrats of the
House charge the Senate democrats with
weakness in failing to maintain the party
character Of opposition, and to this the re-
tort Is made that the senators were impor-
tuned to follow the course they did. by
nearly all the members Of the House. whose
districts were expected to be benefited by
the river and harbor bill.
Mr.. Bryan Is said to have become in
Volved in the contention. 1t Is said that
when 1t appeared that the democrats Of the
Senate were going to let the Philippine
amendment go through, Mr.. Bryan sent
kilograms to a number Of the democratic
leaders urging them to carry a fight to the
extreme. This failing of the desired ef-
feet, Mr.. Bryan telegraphed Senator Allen
to join with democrats and make the fight,
to which Allen responded that there was no
democratic opposition to join with.

DENIES A PASTORS REQUEST.
Mr.. Carnegie Announces Policy Re
spectinE Aid to Churches.

Spccting Alu 10 Snufcneb.
According to an article published in an
out-of-town newspaper this morning, Rev.
DR.. T. Chalmers Easton. pastor of the
Eastern Presbyterian Church in this CITY,
recently sought financial aid for his church
from Andrew Carnegie and received
negative response. The story relates that
the pastor wrote to Mr.. Carnegie as
brother Scotchman and asked for a contri-
button toward the purchase Of an organ,
which. it was said, is needed by the con-
gregation which DR.. Easton serves pas
tor. Mr.. Carnegie is said to have replied
as follows:
II will not give a cent of my money to
any church that cannot meet it's business
obligations. l conduct my charitable af
fairs in business way. church which
obligates itself to carry out enterprises and
then fails can get assistance from me,
or sympathy either. In fact, l think such
practices in church institutions should be
publicly denounced. l cannot, therefore.
give you a cent of my money
DR.. Easton was not at home when Star
reporter called, having gone with a party
of friends to Mount Vernon. Mrs. Easton
said her husband Informed newspaper men
earlier in the day that he would not dis
cuss the matter of the alleged communica-
ton with Mr.. Carnegie.
In connection with the matter the New
York Sun of this morning contains a spe-
cial dispatch from New Brunswick, N. j.,
"Dr. Easton said he wrote several letters
TO Mr.. Carnegie. to which the latter paid
no attention. He finally appealed to the
millionaire on the grounds of mutual an
cestry and of :otherly love and similar
nationality. DIR. Easton had solicited Mr.
Carnegie's aid in buying a new organ for
his church.
Il finally received letter from Mr.. Car
negie." said DR.. Easton, appointing a time
and place for an interview. 1 told him the
great need we had of an organ. He listened
quietly to what l had to say, and then re-
piled: I will not give a cent of my money
to any church that cannot meet its business
obligations. 1 am business man and con-
duct my charitable affairs in business
way.
"A church which obligates itself to carry
out enterprises and then fails can get no
assistance or sympathy from me. In fact,
think such practices in church institutions
should be denounced publicly. I cannot,
therefore, give you cent of my money.
Good day"
Dr. Easton was not little surprised at
the reception he met with, and was con-
siderably crestfailen over his failure to get
the necessary money for q new organ.

TO SUCCEED -MElKLEJOHN
COL. SANGER TO BE ASSISTANT SEC
RETARY.
of Appointment Awaits
the Senatorial Election In
Nebraska.

Although not officially announced, it is
practically settled that Col. William Cary
Sanger of New York will shortly succeed
Mr.. George D. Meiklejohn of Nebraska as
assistant secretary of war. Mr.. Meiklejohn
is now in the Nebraska senatorial race,
with what are believed to be good chances
of election. The change in the War De-
partment is said to be contingent upon his
success in Nebraska. Confidence is ex-
pressed that the senatorial deadlock will be
broken before many days, and that Mr..
Meikiejohn, if not elected for the long
term. is assured of election for the short
term.
This feeling Is so strong at the War De-
partment that it is not expected that Mr..
Meikejohn will be called upon to resume
his official duties in that department. The
announcement of Mr.. Sanger's appointment
will be deferred until there Is no longer
any doubt as to Meiklejohn's success in Ne
braska. Some criticism is made of the pro-
posed appointment on the ground that it
gives two principal offices in the War De-
partment to the same state.
Secretary Roots Intimate Friend.
Col. Sanger is a personal and intimate
friend of the Secretary of War. and will
undoubtedly be Of great assistance to him
In the administration Of the affairs Of the
War Department.
Col. Sanger was born in Brooklyn on May
u, 1853 He was graduated from Harvard
in 1874, and received the degree of master
of arts from Harvard in 1875, and of bach
elOr of laws from Columbia in 1878.
He entered the office of Evarts, South
mayd & Choate, but soon gave up the
practice of law to devote his time to farm
ing in his home at Sangerfeld, Oneida coun-
ty. He is an advocate of civil service re-
form. and has given considerable attention
to the subject.
Military Experience.
His military service began in January.
1886. whenf he was made quartermaster,
with the rank of major in the third bri-
AT the disbandment of the brigade he went
on the supernumerary list, and afterward
was appointed quartermaster of the second
brigade. He received his commission as as
sistant chief of artillery. with the rank Of
colonel, on March s, 1898.
He was sent by the adjutant general to
Chickamauga at the outbreak of the Span
ish war to report on the subject of mobiliz-
ing the army. Then he was detailed to the
pay department for service at Camp Alger,
and when the division headquarters were
removed to Camp Black he was provost
marshal on the staff of Gen. Roe
He went to Camp Black later as the lieu
tenant colonel Of the 2E3d Regiment. and
served with that command at Camp Meade
and Camp Wetherill. He has also served
as inspector on the staff of Major Gen.
Roe, N. Y. N. G. He went abroad last
i.iary forces under instructions from Gov.
Roosevelt and Secretary Root.
lie is relative Of Gen. J. P. Sanger Of
the inspector generals office.
The statement that Col. Sanger is to be
appointed assistant secretary has excited
the resentment of Senator Platt of New
York. who. 1t Is said, threatens to defeat
confirmation OF the nomination.
