WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our rcirultir com'sirtiulont.
Yesterday morning brought Presl
dent Ilnriisoa back to the White
House, tird and worn and paler than
ever, from tho tedious ceremonies at
New York. Ho did not appear at his
oftlee until later In tho day and the of
fice seekers and tourists who are usu
any numerous, being on their way
homo from the Washington con ton hi
nl, were unable to boo lnm. It is ex
por ted fliat to-morrow a number of ml
nor changes in tho departments will
be made and a eert of reign of terror be
Inaugurated. The rumor may not,
however, have any better basis of fact
than when Urst started a month ago
Apart from tho church services in
the morning there were no ceremonies
hero celebrating the centennial of
Washington's inauguration. Depart
ment business was, of course, absolute
ly suspended and a mad desire to go In
tho country seemed to take possession
of the people, a freak that left the city
streets deserted. The races at Ivy City
divided the palm of popularity with
two big excursions to Mt. Vernon, to
which hundreds of people made their
first pilgrimage. The sward at Mt,
Vernon was m tvenutifulas need be, the
trees all in leaf and most of the flowers
In bloom.
The white house was deserted ami not
even the noise of the type-writer was
heard in the land. Tfie footfall of a
solitary watchman vibrated lonely
through the deserted corridors, and not
even an F.aster bridal party bad the
hnrdidood to enter the portals. Secre
tary Ulainc was the only head of do
purtuu-iit in the city. Ho sat in
hi hotel reading, receiving his friends,
telling every inquirer in strong Eng
llsh that the newspapers that had said
that he had suffered a partial stroke of
paralysis were willful and malignant
liars.
The death of Chairman iJarnum
raises immediate conjecture as to his
losible successor. Among the older
democrats their curiosity gives way to
to '"enuine sorrow for hi death. To
that element in the party Mr. Iiarnuui
wan almost a political demigod, and no
Iioi of finding so whA a man for his
successor Is entertained. Senator l'ugh
and Kx-Attorncy General Garland say
the Senator Gorman of Maryland will
be m Jccted. The only objection to Sen
ator Gorman is that he is not a man of
first-class ability. Senator. Gormun
iiHUte Jus reputation originally by se
curing plan's for hwconstituentsin the
Washington navy yard and the gov
ernment printing cilice, and latterly
by his zealous adherence to the plan of
campaign which filled noithern pro
tection states with southern free trada
speaker. The diustrous rvsultx to the
democratic party all the world knows,
and the fully of sending such men as
Mills of Texas to sjteak in northern
cities shall never be repeated. It is
possible that Senator Gorman's hopes
will be dashed to the ground and a
wholesale and radical reorganization of
the national committee IsU'JIVcted, In
such an event, there will le enough
quarreling in the party to give a rest
to the next year.
The local panera nre ridging the
praises of a Dutch detective on theeity
force named ItatT. A week pgo the
body of a colored girl wav found several
miles from the city, bearing eideuce of
violence. A dozen detectives, ama
teurs and professional, were at once on
the trail. The Inimitable ItulT found a
colored man who had washed a wagon
h the creek near by on the iay the
murder was probably committed. He
Was arrested nnd the proud detective
assured the world that he had solved
tho mystrry. A day later an enter
prising reporter succeeds In securing a
picture of the body. It is printed in
the Evening 'Star. The next morning
a citizen reports to the police that the
picture resembles one Eliza Foster, the
mistress of a DJullatto named Thomas,
who had frequently quarreled with her
of late. The citizen has also discovered
that the Foster woman disappeared
about the time the murder was com
mitted and was heard quarreling on
the street with Thomas the night be
fore. The detectives go to Thomas'
bouse and finvt him serenely chewing
hog and hominy. They thrust the
photograph uv.der his nose. His hands
drop to his shle', the half-ehewcd food
drops from hie open mouth; the face is
contorted; he 1 In a palsy of fear. In a
day he breaks ilown and confesses, and
tho man who was wrongfully accused
is released. Still the detectives receive
all the credit. Ot course the newspa
per that had the sense to secure the
picture and the citizen who reported
his suspicion tire only humble instru
ments through which the astubj detec
tive worked. :
