WASHINGTON LETTER.
< From our Regular Correspondent.)
Washington May 6.
Daily Light:
The president had some very pleas-
ant visitors today in the persons of
the Tippecanoe Veteran club of York
Pennsylvania. They were escorted to
the white house by the Pennsylvania
Republican association of this city.
The club presented the presi-
dent with a very handsome
oanner which he received with
a few feeling remarks that greatly
affected the veterans of 1840 as well as
everybody else present. The club has
received every attention since its
arrival early this morning. Every-
body seems to want to do something
for its members.
Secretary Blaine has entirely re-
covered from bis recent indisposition
and resumed his duties in the depart-
ment of state.
Secretary Noble has called upon
the government officials in Oklaho-
ma to explain their connection with
the alleged fradulent location of town
lots and homesteads and unless the
explanations are prompt and satisfac-
tory there will be a sudden falling of
official heads in the new country.
Governor Foraker of Ohio stopped
here on his return from the New York
celebration and he has not yet been
able to get away. He is being lion-
ized not only by the large contingent
of Ohio people in Washington but by
everybody else. He has been twice
invited to the White house in the
evenings and Ohio office seekers are
all in the throes of "great expecta-
tions” therefrom. On Saturday ex-
Governor Foster of Ohio arrived. He
was recently appointed a member of
the commission to treat with the
Sioux Indians for the purchase of a
portion of their lands. Somebody
asked one of the Ohio party whether
they were after any particular office.
He answered by asking the inquirer if
he ever saw an Ohio man that did not
want an office.
Gov. Hovey of Indiana stopped in
Washington on his way home to pay
his respects to his old friend General
Harrison. Gov Hovey is very popu-
lar here and particularly so with the
old soldiers lor whom he never tired
working when he was a memberof the
house of representatives.
Secretary Tracy has given the con-
tract or the construction of the mon-
ster armored coast-defense vessel pro-
vided for at the last session of con-
gress to the Union iron works of
San Francisco. The price is to be
$1628000. Five years ago no one
would have believed it possible to
build such a vessel on the Pacific
coast owing to lack offacilities. But
this concern now has one of the finest
plants for iron ship-building in
America.
Ex-Congressman Ryan of Kansas
the new minister to Mexico was
given a farewell dinner Friday by ad-
miring friends. Representative Can-
non of Illinois was the presiding ge-
nius.
Superintendent of the census Por-
ter has regularly opened the census
bureau. The work for many months to
come will be merely preliminary.
Secretary Blaine has formally pre-
sented the new British minister to the
president and once more everything
is smooth between the Great Britain
and the Greater Britain.
Great efforts are being made by
friends of the president to get him to
take a week or ten day’s vacation but
lie has so far refused to do so owing to
the mass of important business that
he wants to straighten up.
The following appointments have
been made by the president since his
return from New York: United
States attorneys S. N. Hawkins of
Tennessee for the western and John
Ruhm of Tennessee for the middle
district of Tennessee; D. 8. Alexander
of New York for the northern district
of New York. (Mr. Alexand-
er was fifth auditor of the
treasury when the Cleveland
administration came in.) After
his resignation he went to Buffalo N.
Y. and opened a law office. When
Gen. Harrison was nominated he re-
quested Mr. Alexander to come to In-
dianapolis and take charge of his cor-
respondence. After the election Mr.
Alexander returned to his law prac-
tice in Buffalo: T. R. Borland of Vir-
ginia for the eastern district of Vir-
ginia; A. J. Evans of Texas for the
western district of Texas; W. H. H.
Clayton of Arkansas for the western
district of Arkansas.
