The President has accepted the resig nation of Governor N. M. Stone of Iowa, Commissioner of the general land office.

The Supreme Court has affirmed the judgment of the Court of Claims, dis missing the petition of the State of In diana to recover from the United States over $000,000 as 5 per cent of the sales of public lands in Indiana. Authority has been given by President Cleveland to Secretary Gresbam to ex change with Minister Grip certificates of the ratification of the extradition treaty between the United Htates and Sweden, recently ratified by the Senate. The results of the rifle, carbine and revolver firing of the ariny for the target year of 1892 received by the Adjutant shows that Company G of the Seventh Infantry, stationed at Pilot Butte, Wyo., made the highest general figure of merit. Active preparations are about to be begun by Secretary Smith for the open ing of the Cherokee Strip under the pro vision of the Indian appropriations act ratifying the agreement with the Chero kees. The preliminaries, however, will consume considerable time. A hint of Cleveland's policy of build ing up new party is given. Following the selection of Judge Uresham for the Cabinet, it is said, he is going to appeal to the sentimental Republicans by keep ing Minister Lincoln at London and Minister Fred Grant at Vienna. Postmaster-General BiBsell states that whenever there is a contest for any pont ollk'fl the person who held the otiice un der President Cleveland's former admin istration is not to be considered. He further states the full power of this rule will be applied to fourth-class poBtotfices, 1 and that he, and not the President, is responsible for it. I Secretary Carlisle has leaned new reg ulations regarding precautions to be ob served in admitting immigrants to the , aeventeen articles United Htates. 1 lie regulations contain ihe first ton are substantially the same as are now in force. Articles 11 to 15 inclusive are Jiractically new, and are made to con orm to the new laws effecting immigra tion passed by the last Congress and ap proved March 3. The Treasury Department continues to receive oilers of gold from the West in exchange for small notes, for which there is at present an increasing demand. Several offers had to be temporarily de- cllned. as it was found the gold was of light weight, and until those who offered it made up the deficiency in weight the government couiu n'.i accept it. minis connection it is interesting to note that the government requires absolute ac curacy before it will receipt for light weight coin. President Cleveland has decided upon a line of policy to be pursued In the ap pointment of Consuls, which Is expected to materially expand the trade of the United htates with foreign countries, and especially with the South American and Central American republics. His 1ollcy is to select men for Consols who tave exceptional business qualifications and Kssess sufficient trade instinct to recognize an outlet for American mer ;handlse, and ability to aid in working ap a market for the product ol American manufacturers and farms. The Presi dent said, of course, political reasons cannot be entirely ignored in the selec tion of Consuls, but particular stress will be laid upon the business abilities si the men wboBe names are presented to him. Several people who have known how long Cleveland is obliged to stand on his feet during the many hours he is re ceiving people, have wondered how it was that he was utile to keepnp. lie comes down into the east room and shakes hands with thousands of people, standing on his feet for an hour or half aa hour, as the rase may be. In his private olllce he feels the necessity of arising to his feet when he receives visit ors who are distinguished enough to be admitted to a private interview. It is found, however, that the President has a great scheme. His desk is low enough to admit his sitting npon it in an ap parent attitude of standing, and it is there he sits, with his feet on the floor and his weight resting on the desk, and hakes hands and chats with the visitors who are admitted. It has been re marked by several persons that he does not move around very much, hut nobody knows better than Mr. Cleveland him self why he does not move around. He is scheming all the while to save himself, and thls attitude he finds very comfort able. It Is probable the clerks and some oilier employes In the bureau of engrav ing and printing not directly employed In the production of greenbacks and other government obligations will have to take certificates of indebtedness in stead of cash for their salaries for the remainder of the fiscal year.
