The minute hand is to be twelve feet and ihe hour land nine leet in length, while the Roman figures on the dial will measure two feet eight inches in length. a prominent official of the Interior depart ment and now Asslttant Secretary Chand ler, of the same department, savs that the ruse is entirely too thin, and that It will not be allowed. Well, wi shall see who will win. It may be a slander, but It has been said over and over again, that tee cattle men would not be put off the strip, because they had' a good filend who was near, in more than one respect to Mr Har rison, who would put them "onto" some way to stay. When the Weather Bureau passed under the control of the agrlcultuaal department the statement was made that Francis E Nlpher, of St LouU, would have been placed in charge ol it had he not declined to state his politic!. Tins was vehemently denied at the time by Secretaay Rusk,but It was nevertheless true. Professor Nlpher, who is now here In attendance upon the meetings of the American Asso ciation for the advancement of science savs that after six months persuasion he had "greed to accept the position, but when he received a telegram from a mem ber of the cabinet signed officially, and reading: "What are your politics? Ans wer by telrgraph," he concluded that he did not care for the position and wired as follows: Replying your telegram as re quested, I respectively stale that I am not a politician and do not Intend to engage in politics." tVASHlNUTO.il. (Frum our regular correspondent.) Washington, Aug 24, 1S91. Mr Harrison is certainly unfortunate in one thing. Only those republicans who already hold federal offices, or those who are reaching out after one, speak publicly In favor of his nomination. Robert Small, the negro ex-congressman of South Car olina who is drawing a federal salary In that state, dropped into Washington last -week, and, having succeeded by some hook or crook in getting himself inter viewed by a reporter of a respectable pa per, proceeded to eulogize Harrison and to say if the southern republicans could dic tate the nomination it would certainly go to him ; he cast a Blaine anchor to wind ward bv saying that the opposition which once existed among southern republicans to Mr Blaine was now entirely gone and that they would gladly support him if he was nominated. The next Harrison man to turn up in Washington was ex-Repre sentutlve McComas, of Maryland, who by his reason of his supporting the Force bill was defeated for re-election In a dis trict which is strongly republican. Mr McComas is hankering after a seat on the federal bench j therefore It is not strange that he should sav that during a tour of the northwestern stales he found the peo pie. all believing that Blaine was tco loyal to Harrison to become a candidateand that Mr Harrison deserved a re-nomlnatlon and would get it. No such reports have been brought In by disinterested obsoveis If Secretary Noble has rot got tired of saying that he has not resigned and does not intend to resign, the people are tired of hearing it. Just to show how public opinion regards the matter it may be men tioned thai a sporting man stood in the lobby of a hotel, which was crowded with people, and offered to wager kny amount from $50 to a $1000 that Noble was out of the cabinet before the first of January and there were no takers. Senator Carlisle is here looking splend idly after his long rest. He says that all the newspaper Interviews with him con cerning democratic candidates next year which have from time to time appeared this summer have been entirely false, as he has expressed no opinions on the subject. Senator Chandler.chalrman of the senate commtitee on Immigration, has fired the first gun In what may be a very serious fight in congress by writing a letter to the secretary of the treasury setting forth his views as to the legality of that official's action in accepting bonds, insuring that thry should not become a public charge, and permitting the landing of any prohib ited class (the Russian Jews recently per milted to land, upon the Jews In this coun try giving a bond to the treasury depart ment that they should not become a charge upon the public, are the targets aimed at.) Mr Chandler says 'hat congress never in tended when the prohibitorv laws were en acted to authorize any such system, and It It fair to assume that he proposes that the matter shall be brought to the atten tion of congress. Treasury officials say tbat written opinions have been furnished that department by Attorney-General Garland under the Cleveland administra tion and by Attorney-General Miller under the present administration to the effect that such bonds may be taken In the discretion of the secretary ol the treasuiy. The cattle on the Cherokee strip may be the cause of quite an administration row when Mr Harrison comes back.
