 Chairman Remmel. however. did not escape wholly untouched. Al tad5y's eeAtefenee, as matter of fact his position with reference 10 the Hot Springs fight Was made untenabla and he has agreed for Postmaster Howell 10 continue i'll office at that place until the lattArs term expires in March Pressure brought to bear by Senator Lodge and Representative Hoar is di= rectly responsible for Gstmaster Gen eral Cortelyous action in the matter.
 C. l.. Young of Hot Springs, who is an independent candidate for the office, said tonight that the organiza- ton was now on the run and the de fensive, and that he felt confident of winning out
 Evsno nF tI1 Republican, who is backing c. C. Sparks for the same office, is equally sanguine of success. J. H. Avery, the committees candidate, has almost been lost sight of in the race, and although he is looked upon as good man, his chances of appointment have been growing slim during the pas. two days
 There is also some gossip here Of the probable reappointment of Capt. Milton A. Elliott as register of the Camden land office tomorrow. The latest news in this connection is that beth Secretary Hitchcock and Com missioner Richards of the general land office have come out for the Spanish war veteran.
 President Roosevelt has taken a personal interest in Capt. Elliott's case and if was he who asked the above mentioned officials to report on the Camden officials standing.
 MT. Remmel during the day took the opportunity to term as "absnrd" stories to the effect that President Roosevelt had decided to appoint no more negroes to office. He said Bush has been promised reappointment by the president and also called atten tion to the selection of Prof. Vernon of Kansas, a negro school teacher and orator to succeed J. w. Lyons as register of the treasury.
 Capt. Tucker, internal revenue col lector for Arkansas, departed for Lit tie Rock tonight.
 Congressman Miner Wallace is con fined in a local hospital with a severe attack of grip. His physicians say that there is no occasion for alarm.
 Senator Clarke denied tonight the truth of newspaper statements to the effect that he would return to Ar kansas about March 1 to explain his connection with the railroad tax com. promise. The senator said he did not know that his plans would be so far in advance as March 1, but at any rate he would not return to the state to take up the railroad tax matter.
