This has been an anxious week for the Republican brethren. Alihongh every conceivable ient had been resorted to top t the prectpitation of a Sickt over the silver question in the convention of the Republi can Leagues at Cleveland, OUhio, . they havé been in a state of dread every hour that the con- vention was in session lest their should mi and the ght be started which would like wildfire through the entire party. The Republican enemies of 5 Mr: Benjamin Harrison evident- him as a formidable te for the Presidential momination, and are beginni : - 40 line up to accomplish his de Ex-Pension Commission- "ef Dudley, of Ind., whose ef- _ state for Mr. Harrison towards carrying that in 1888 means of the notorious of five’ system, which afterwards caused him to find Washington a safer place of residence than Indiana,and who became a bitter enemy of Mr. Harrison because that gentle— man, although willing to accept the benefit of his trickery, de- clined to te with him or him sftér he became President, is again pos- ing. as a Republican leader. And it is no wiley? lect in ‘ington that Du c | ect in again entering politics is to work against "a: nom- ination. State department officials | re- gard the story that Great Brit_ ain is preparing to forcibly: ob- tain control of the. canal as belonging to the : which always become more or lest frequent during’ midsam mer, which isalso known as tke - 4 season.’ Sacha course onthe pert of Great Britain would be equivalent to a de- claration of war against the United States, and few men of common sense could be made to believe that Great Britain de isiresa war with the United States. Secretary Carlisle has com pleted the regalations under which the $65,000,0v0 appro-~ priated by the last Con to deferred sugar unties ill be disbursed. Copies of these regulations will for- warded to the sugar planters and as soon as all requirements have been complied with the money will be paid. It is probable that there will not be enough to pay the full amount intended by ‘Congress. Should that be the case when all the claims are in und tabalated the claims will all be scaled down. It will take some months to ar- range all these details and Treasury officials do not think they will be completed and the payments made before about the last of the year. Commissioner Lochren says he has nothing to conceal in connection with the dismisssl of one huddred employes of the Pension Bureau, which are to into effect July 1, and which friends of those dismissed, be- cause several ex Union soldiers and Miss Key, a granddsughter of the writer of “‘The Star Spangled Banner,’’ were on the list. Judge Louchrea says of the matter: ‘‘In making these selections we took those whom to dismiss would not be so great a hardship as it would have beea to others in the office, who pel did not in. some cases so high as clerks. In making up the list of those who wereto go out we were +, a governed by the desire to keep our best clerks in tae office. As to publishing the list, 1t was on my judgment that it was not giver.out. And my.reason for not doing so was that“ we did not wish to cast a stigma on any who were thus legislated out of office. Itis not against many ot these clerks that they were not as efficient as othe: clerks, and it should not prevent their getting employment elsewh ere”’ es mestory ©. menty 7 se. A smail boy in one of the Germaa- town public schools wrote a compost- tion on King Henry VIII. It read as follows: ‘‘King Henry 8 was the greatest widower: that ever lived. He was born at Annie Domino, ia the year 1066. He had 510 wives be- sides children. The first was be- headed and afterwards executed, and the 24 was revoked.
