THE QUEST FOR OFFICES.
TEXAS CONGKESSMEJT LOOKING OUT
FOE THE POSTOFFIOES.
No Solid Indications of Another Conference.
Sentiment of Missourians Toward
General Shelby
Washington, March 16.—[Special.]—There has
boon somo talk around town to-day that tho Tex-
ans would moot again and try to come to an
understanding whereby tlioy could act together
in got^ing oliicos in Toxas. As Sonator Coke
called tho last meeting, ho is the man who ought
to know about it, and ho informs mo to-night
that he knows nothing of any call for a mooting
and moreover expressed himsolf as being of tho
opinion that one could not bo had. In this con-
dition of affairs, no ono can toll anything about
what will occur. As tho congressmen thomselvos
know nothing, even a mind render would bo rat-
tled to tackle them. In fact, they have ceased al-
most to talk about marshals, district attorneys
and collectors, and are demoting themselves to
the postotiices, hoping that every day may bring a
light, by which they cun gropo in this great dark-
ness. There is ono thing which consoles them,
and that is that the administration itself is not
started out and prepared to transact business.
The heads of departments havo not yet been ap-
pointed and therefore appointmonts will not bo
made until they are appointed.
The Texans do not yet know liow many good or
big oliicos aro going to bo given their stato,
though thoy aro satisfied they will get at least
ono good mission. Thoy may got more, but this
they aro assured of.
.Judge Terrell of Austin came in last night and
finds himsolf backod by tho sonators and tho
representatives for the Turkish mission and at
present he soems to have a suro thing of it.
The Texans are, however, no more ignorant of
tho amount of spoils they are going to get than
democratic delegations from othor states. If,
tor instance, tho administration would say that
Texas shall have two or three missions and a cer-
tain number of othor offices outsido of the state
then the delegation could go to work and get
tliom, if it could harmonize.
As it is tho members aro boating around in the
brush, not knowing whether or not there is any
game.
Tho following applications for oflico were filed
in tho treasury department to-day: Albert
Douthill of Velasco, to bo doputy collector of
customs at that placo; E. A. Glover, registorod
as from West Texas, for intornal rovenue col-
lector ; S. L. Newton of Lockhart, to be collector
at Saluria.
Congressman Coopor has recommended tho
following gontlemen for the following postolficos:
Guy W. Junker, for Beaumont; John H. Hart,
for Orange; R. D. Chapman, for Nacogdoches;
W. E. Ross, for Carthago, and G. T. Roots, for
Hallettsville.
Congressman Pendloton has made tho follow-
ing recommendations for postmasters; J. A.
Strange for Rogers, Mrs. Denison for Bolton and
R. B. Elliott for Troy. Mr. Pendleton is tiling
all applications, though he makes but onorecoin-
mondution lor each office.
general shelby.
Thoro aro many of Joe Shelby's old soldiers in
Toxas who will bo sorry to learn that tho senators
from his state, Missouri, refused to recommend
him for tho inarshalship of his state. The Mis-
souri delegation met to-day, us did the Texans a
few days ago. Several of tho representatives
wanted Shelby for marshal of Missouri. Tiio
Missourians here are fairly howling over the
matter.
hats lost at tite white house.
Tho only interesting thing that has occurred at
the white house to-day was the loss of Sonator
Goorge's hat. Ho wont up to introduce somo of
his Mississippi constituents to the prosident, and
when ho finished his speech of introduction and
started to leave he could not find hi3 hat. There
was a goneral hunt for tho head gear but it could
not bo found, and pulling his coat collar as high
up 011 his hoad as possible ho left tho building.
A few days ago an aspiring Georgian, named
Teonio Rucker, lost liis hat in the whito house,
and tho two incidents f urnish much amusement.
Rucker's hat was afterward found and he was
notified, but ho was so cast down by tho publicity
of his loss and newspaper commonts on it that ho
sworo fie wouldn't go back to tho whito liouso for
a box of hats. Mr, Cleveland enjoyed thoso little
incidents as thoy relievod him of the great,dreary
monotony of sterootypod conduct of and to office

Measures Concerning tho Cherokee Lands.
Washington,March 16.—Active preparations aro
about to begin by Secretary Smith for opening
tho Chorokeo strip under tho provisions of the
act ratifying the agreement with tho Cherokoos
Tho preliminaries to bo observed prior to oponing
tho outlet to settlement by proclamation of tho

lotments aro to bo niado to Indians who wero
bona lido residents of tho strip prior to Novein
bor, 1891. and engaged in fanning, and the strip is

provides for school reservations, also such othor
reservations as tho president may determine,
Engineers on Steamships.
Washington, March 16.—[Special.]—Secretary
Carlisle is at present inclined to adhere to tho
ruling mado by Socrotury Foster as to licensing
tho ouginoer officers of tho stoainers Now York
and Paris of the American line. The
law provides that when the intention
of bocoming American citizens is do-
clarod six months provious to application for
licenso, tho secretary of tho troasury may issue
liconsos to foreigners as engineers of American
ships. Tho engineers on tho Paris and New York
declared their intentions in accordance with tho
law and will take out their naturalization papers
iuduocourso. Cases of this kind aro quite com-
mon on ships and steamers that ply on tho great
lakes, _____
Why The Senate Waits,
Washington, March 16.—From its action to
day it is evident tho senate intends taking time
in the matter of confirming appointments. Ad-
journment of the souate until next Monday
makos it impossiblo for any of tho officials namod
by the president to assume their duties until tho
middle of next week.
A prominent senator on the democratic side
said this morning tho senate would not bo in any
hurry to go into tho business of confirming nomi-
nations, and possibly thoy would wait until tho
electivo officers of tho senate had been chosen, if
it is determined to do this at once. As soon as
this has boon dono, ho said, the senate would
confirm every nomination.

SWEDEN AT THE FAIR
CAPT. FAULKNER'S LETTER
THE CITIZEN MAKES A DEMAND TOR
AN INVESTIGATION.
Ho Wants the Governor to Show Why He
Draped His Name into His Recent
Message on Receivershins,
Pictures and Sculpture—Appropriation to
Send Mechanical Engineers.
New York, March 16. — [Special.] —Arthur
Lefler. tho chief commissioner of Swoden to tho
world's fair, and Axel Welin, assistant secretary
to tho royal Swedish commission for tho fair, are
at tho Metropolitan hotol. Thoy say tho Swedish
exhibit will bo ono of tho finest at the fair. Mr.
Lefior says that tho government has appropri-
ated 350,000 crowns, or about $100,000 for tho ex-
hibit to bo sont to Chicago, and that amount in
proportion to tho population of othor countrios,
was tho largest appropriation made by any Euro-
pean country.
"The Swedish government is taking more than
ordinary interest in the fair,"said Mr. Lefler in tho
course of his talk, "and it has dono soraothing in
tho way of appropriating money that no other
country has thought of. In addition to t'.ie 350,-
000 crowns for the exhibit the kingdom has ap-
propriated 50,000 crowns to bo used to send
mechauical engineers to tho fair. Sweden regards
tho exposition as a great educational institution,
and it wants its mechanical ongiuoers to got the
beuofit of a visit to Chicago.
"Tho exhibit loft Swoden on March 2 and was
transferred to a vessel that sails from Livorpool
to-day. Tho exhibit will be hero in a wool: or ton
days and tho articles will bo in their places in our
building at tho fair grounds by April 1. The most
prominent articles of the exhibit will bo compara-
tively small, but it will prove to bo a surprise to
tho judges in the art department. There areonly
about seventy-two exhibits in this department,
but somo of tho most colebrated artists of Europo
havo contributed, and among tho 200 works in oil,
lastol and water colors boiuo superior work will
jo seen. Among tho artists wiio havo entered tho
contest aro Berg, Bjorsk, Ilagobork, Kronberg,
'/{irl Larsson, Zorn, Count Roson and Prince
J5u«eno, the fourth son of the king. Two of our
gre;|1, sculptors, Kasselborg and Bjorsson. bave
contributed somo of their skill to tho exhibit."

Washington, March 16.—Socretary Carlisle
this morning declined to affirm or dony tho stato-
mont that the revenue cuttor Rush at San Fran-
cisco has been ordered to hold herself in readi-
ness to carry Mr. Blount to Hawaii. It is unoffi-
cially stated, however, that tho rovenue cuttor
will bo placed at Mr. Blount's disposal on his ar-
rival. and unless arrangements can bo mado for
tho Pacific mail steamer which sails for China
on tho 23d to touch Honolulu Mr. Blount will re-
main on the Rush.

Uni-
A Conference Begun From Which
form Action Is Expected.
Washington, March 16.—A conference of mari-
time quarantine officers and officers of the mar-
ine hospital service convenod at noon to-day at
tho oflico of Supervising Surgeon General Wy-
man of tho marine hospital servico. The object
is to secure co-operation of stato and local mari-
timo quarantine officers in tho adoption of a set
of uniform quarantine regulations, in order that

Gold Coins Lost Weight.
Denver, Col., March 1H.—[Special.]—There is
hitch in tho contemplated exchange of $1,000,3
000 in gold for a like amount of currency as pro-
posed by tho Denver banks and accoptod by
Secrotary Carlisle. Should tho negotiation bo
complotod on tho present basis tho Donver banks
would quit losor on tho transaction not less
than $2200. The all important question at presont
with tho eleven banks which comprise tho
Denver clearing house association is on what
basis of weight tho govornmont will accept tho
$1,000,000 iu gold coin, whother standard or cur-
rent weight. Tho ditforouco betwoon the two is con-
siderable. Tho director of tho mint at Wash-
ington has boon queried by wiro ou this subject
and his reply will decide what Denver banks pro-
pose t,o do. Tho govornmont already having do-
positod its $1,000,000 in currency at tho Denvor
mint preparations for weighing an oqu;il amount
in gold coin began yesterday. It was found that
thoro was a depreciation of $J1 on every $5u00,
The banks will probably stand by their contract
weiher thoy loso or not.
Tho Rush to Chorokeeland.
Topeka, Kan., March 16.—Uncertainty about
the time of oponing tho Chorokeo atrip has not
had tho offoct of diminishing tho rush to tne bor-
dor. On tho contrary as spring has advanced
tho tide of travel has incrcasod and tho Santa Fe
and Rock Island trains aro crowded. Many of
tho passengers aro women and children, follow-
ing thoir husbands, who aro driving overland
with stock and household effects. Thoso people
aro said to bo gathoring in littlo colonies along
tho border betwoon Arkansas City and Caldwell.
They live in tents and beneath wagon covers.
Somo havo plenty to oat and woar. but tho great
majority havo littlo meanSj and unless they can
find work ou tho adjacent farms will havo to bo
taken caro of by fortunato fellow-boomors.
Troops of cavalry aro in camp along tho nortliorn
border of tho strip and daily patrol tho line and
scour tho iutorior to soo that intruders aro kept

tain Moyor and crew of seven men, of tho bark
Sierius (Gorman), bound from Galveston, Feb-
ruary 11, for Ayr, Scotland, iadon with oil cako.

Austin, Tex., March 16. -Tho following is tho
full text of Colonol A. Faulknor's open letter to
Govornor Hogg in regard to tho use of the for-
mer's namo by tho latter in his rec mt mossage to
tho legislature concerning tho receivorship of tho
Houston and Texas Central railroad:
St. Louis, Mo., March 13.—To His Excellency,
Hon. James S. Hogg, Govornor of Texas—Sir: I
havo just read tho full text of your message of
tho Nth iuftant to the honorable senato and house
of representatives of Texas. In view of tho atten-
tion it has received through the public prints not
only in Texas but throughout the length and
breadth of tho entire country, and inasmuch as
tho general impression soems to prevail that you
had embraced 1110 in your swooping charges
against certain l,foderal olficials." 1 waited with
impatience tho receipt of tho full text of your
message that I might read it just as transmitted
to tho Texas legislature and weigh well tho full
intent and meaning of each statement made there-
in aud its relation to every othor statement.
ON THE 3ECOND PAGE
of tho mossago roferrod to you mako uso of tho
following language: "In last Novombor tho facts
showing tho corruption of federal court receivers
and ollicers wero filod on alfidavit beforo a United
Statos circuit court judgo of Texas at New Or-
leaus." * * * "Ho (tho witness Nallo) also
shows that thoso federal court officors owned an
interest, in othor compresses in tho state, and in
tho light of his personal oxperionco would
doom it an act of idiocy for anyone t to
invest in cotton compress property without first
satisfying the greed of the railway officials on
tho lino of which it was to be located. In justico
to tho public it may be proper to stato that fed-
eral officials named by the witness as owning and
controlling the compress stock aro Charles Dil-
lingham. tlion receiver; Daniel Ripley, then gen-
oral tratfic manager, and A. Faulkner, thou gen-
eral passongor agent of tho said Houston and
Texas Central railroad, appointed by and under
tho authority of tho federal court."
It will bo observed that in your carofally word-
ed mossago while you
do not lodge any direct charge
against me personally as being a party to the al-
leged "corruption of the federal court rocoivers
and officers," you do by clear intimation and im-
plication [and I can not persuade mysolf that you
did not so intend it j by your reforonco to the neces-
sity for "satisfying the greod of tho railway
officials," and in this connection mentioning my
namo as ono of "tho federal officials named by
witnoss," leave it to bo inferred by all who road
your message that 1 was a party to tho alleged
irregularities or questionable transactions re-
ferred to by witness Nallo.
A careful roading of tho testimony of Mr.
Nallo. ou which your mossago was predicated,
fails to disclose any statements by which you
could either by direct or indirect process of rea-
soning draw such a conclusion or inforonco. On
the contrary tho witness Nallo (page 10 of your
message) doposod as follows: "l did so; paying
him (Dillingham) an advanoo on the prico ho
paid mo for tho entire block of stock issued to him,
loss $5000. which amount he had previously sold
to A. Faulkner, his general passenger and ticket
agent, for 100 cents on tho dollar. Is thoro any-
thing here"
to justify the assertion
that in coming into possession of tho stock refer-
red to or that in holding said stock in any manner
transgressed tho plain duty which I owod to tho
company which I had served for so many years?
Tho witness Nalle in his testimony ouotes from
my sworn depositions in tho casoof "D. Ripley vs.
Waco-Ennis Compress company No. 10.05U, now
on file in the district court of Travis county.
Had you taken the pains to havo oxaminod
those depositions you would havo discovered that
in Juuo, 1889,1 bought fifty shares of tho Waco-
Hnnis compross company's stock from Charles
Dillingham, deeding him in payment therefor a
corner lot on Rusk street, in Houston, Tox., val-
ued at $5000; that the transaction was in 110 sense
of a privato nature, but known to tho friends of
both parties thero; that tho deeds of tho transfer
wero drawn by Baker, Botts & Baker of Houston,
who wero
familiar with all the details
of tho transaction, that on January 10,1890, Mr.
Nallo, as prosident of tho Waco-Eunis compress
company, sent mo a check for $000, tho same be-
ing a 12 per cent dividend of my fifty shares of
stock; that on March 4, 1890, $50 more, or 1
por cent, and on April 21, 1890, an addi-
tional $50, or 1 per cent ou said stock, making
in a 11 $700,or 11 per cont in dividonds 011 fifty shares
of stock hold by me, said dividends representing
ono soason's earning of tho Waco-Enuis compress
company; that in tho summer of 1890, needing
money badly, 1 endeavored to sell said stock to
Several parties; that it was a matter of general
kuowlodgo among compress men and cotton doal-
ors that 1 had this stock for sale; that al'tor such
correspondence I finally, on Novombor 17,1890,
concluded tho salo of said stock to Mr. Robert-
son of Mexia at 70 cents on tho dollar, or $3500;
that this was tho
highest price obtainable,
although I had purchased at par and tho divi-
dends for tho provious season had amounted to
14 por cent on the face value of the stock, and
that I drew on Mr. Robertson for tho purchase
prico through the South Texas national bank, at-
taching tho stock to tho draft. When I purchased
tho stock I notified Mr. Nallo that 1 had done so
and received no advice from him then so much as
intimating that such purchase and sale was not
porfectly regular aud legitimate.
It also appears from those sworn depositions
that during the timo tho stock was held by mo
that I was gonoral passenger aud ticket agent of
the Houston and Texas Central railway, which
position gave mo 110 control whatevor ovor tho
movement of cotton to or from any compress
on that line, nor any advantage or privi-
lege not oiijovod by every other citizen
of the stato. Mr. Robertson in sworn depositions
in tho case above roforred to states:
"I bought tho stock by representations made of
its paying qualities by Mr. Nallo and Mr. Ripley,
as woil as my own belief that it was a good in-
vestment."
In viow of thoso facts, wliioh appear as matter of
record within a btone's throw
of your oflico, which record was sovoral times re-
ferred to 111 tho testimony of tho witness Nallo
embodied in your message and in viow of tho in-
ference reflecting upon my personal and official
honesty, which a casual reader must draw from
tho language mado up by you in said mossago, I
am most reluctantly forced to tho conclusion
that you liavo been either culpably negligent
in attempting to arrive at tho real truth of a
matter of so serious a nature which you saw lit
to niuko tho subjoct of a state paporj or that,
fearing to mako a direct chavgo ovon in such a
privileged communication, which you know to bo
without foundation, havo, by unwarranted inu-
endo and uso of covert phases pregnant with sug-
gestions of dishonest dealings,
sought to besmirch through
your office of govornor of tho stato of Texas tho
namo of ono of its humblo citizens.
I am loath to givo credence to the suggestions
made by sovoral of tho loading papers of Texas
that tho govornor of Texas could not loso sight of
tho fact long enough to dictate an important
state paper that Mr* A. Faulkner
could not consistently support candidate
James S. Hogg for governor, but in viow of my
long rosidonco in tho stato. in viow of tho twonty-
sovou years of service in tho Houston aud Texas
Central railway, daring all of which timo it has
been my first caro to keep a name, which for gen-
erations boforo it has boon a synonym for probity
aud honesty, unsullied by oven tho
faintest breath of suspicion.
1 say iu viow of thoso facts and tho gonoral con-
struction placed upon tho language used by you
as it relates to me individually, iu your message
above referred to, 1 fool that 1 am justified in
thus publicly calling upon you to namo a
coir.mittoo, to bo taken from oithor or both
branchos of tho legislature now in sossion, tho
'lexas railroad commission or any othor body,
committee or commission that it may suit your
pleasure to have investigate my conncction with
tho alleged.unlawful and corrupt transactions
referred to By you
I will irladly appear boforo sueh a body at such
timo and place in the state of Toxas as thoy may
designate and gladly
pay my own expenses
in waiting upon their pleasure.
So far as I am concerned, the state will not be
put to one cent of expense in tho conduct of tho
investigation, and I will moreover agreo to cite
no witnesses to appear beforo such investigating
body but yourself and Mr. Nalle. As a citizen of
Toxas whoso reputation for lionosty and fair
dealing has boen impugned by the governor of
Texas I mako this request or demand on you. If
you deny 1110 this then tho people must judgo be-
tween us. Respectfully, A, Faulkneb.
