HAS NO TIME TO PLAY Windom's Hungry Visitors From Home Keep Him Busy. Mellette Still has the Lead for the Governorship of Dakota. The Chairmen of the Chief - Senate Committees An nounced. Death of Congressman Town shend, of Illinois— The Departments. Special to the Globe. Washington, March 9.— President Harrison had an easy time of it to-day by reason of the departure of the parties who sought no office, but nevertheless shook his hand and absorbed his time. Two delegations, however, presented the names of favorite sons for office. The lowa delegation, headed by Senator Allison, called and had a long conference. They presenteo three names for the consideration of the president: Gen. Tuttle for commissioner of pensions; ex-Gov. Stone, for commissioner of the general land office; and ex-Congressman Hep burn, for commissioner of patents. The claims of the gentlemen named were also fully presented, and the president was given to understand that the Re publican party in lowa stood ready to indorse these nominations unanimously. lowa is always modest, and in asking for three of the lest places at his dis posal, has undoubtedly excited Har rison's warm admiration and respect for her unobtrusiveness. .. KCIIETARV WIN'OOM I? rushed almost to death. He never had so many friends before in his life. - They come in such numbers that he has beeu obliged to play Dick Swiveler on them, and dodge around side streets and dark corridors. To-night he delegated his first assistant secretary to act for him, while he hid in the assistant's room; but even there he was corraled by Vice President Morion, who had im portant matters to present. Ex-Regis ter Luce, of the land office at Dead wood, S. D., who is an old lndianian and Chicago editor, is here seeking ap pointment to his old position. A wedding. James A. Frear, of Hudson, Wis., and Miss Hattie E. Wood, of this city, were married at the Waugh M. E. chapel this evening by Rev. Price. John E. Lowrey, of St. Cloud, Minn., acted as grooms man, and Miss Lulu McCreery. of Washington, as bridesmaid. The ushers were Messrs. J. B. Gross, of Hudsoa; J. G. Morrison and J. A. Gross, of Wash ington, and Mr. Cole, of New York. A brief informal bridal reception was held in a class room of the church aud re sumed at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Frear, 223 Eighth street north east. Later in the evening Mr. and Mrs. Frear left for their future home in Wisconsin. Asa H. Frear, father of the groom, has held an important position in the adjutant general's office for the past ten years and is regarded highly here for his efficiency. AN OFFENSIVE PARTISAN, Judge James Spencer, of Dakota, may as well commence packing his gripsack. He is regarded at the department of justice as one of those creatures de nominated by ('rover Cleveland as "offensive partisans," and under that political obloquy he will be obliged to greet his successor before the flowers bloom in the soring. 1 have not seen it, but a reliable Dakota man states that * W. C. Arnold is here with Church's resignation in his pocket, to be used if advantageous to him (Arnold;, but to be destroyed rather than let it inure to Mellette's benefit. There is no doubt that this statement can be verified, as it comes from a responsible party. PERSONA]. MENTION. W. P. Cioiigh, St. Faul. is at Worm ley'... Mr. and Mrs. F. Driscoll, of St. Paul, are at the Arlington. John M. Gilman, of St. Paul, is at Chamber lain's. W. Z. Silvery, of Duluth, is at the Ebbitt. ALMOST A CERTAINTY. Mellette's Friends Think He Is Sure of the Dakota Governor ship. ; Special to the Globe. Washington, March 9.— Jud La . Moure will go home to- mo row. He thinks Pembina should have one of the North Dakota senators-dps. The ap pointment of Mellette for governor of Dakota seems so sore that his backers are quietly stealing homeward. Judges Moody and Edgerton left to-day. Gov. Pierce quietly awaits developments and may yet be made governor of Dakota in spite of himself. He is calling upon and receiving visits from old friends here, especially the newspaper boys, with whom he retains his old time popularity. It looks as though Hansbrough has a sure thing on the Devil's Lake land office. Gen. Harrison Allen says he is an avowed candidate for the senatorship, and believes no one can measure swords with him. E. S. Neal, of Bismarck, will arrive here to-morrow to see if there is anything left for him. J. B. Leahy and E. 11. Wilson, of Butte, Mont., and W. E. Steele, of Minneapo lis, are at Chamberlain's. Prof. Tous ley, formerly superintendent of the Minneapolis public schools, is here ready to take a consulship again. Pros pective Secretary Richardson, of Fargo, will leave on Monday. Maj. Davis, late Washington correspondent of the Min neapolis Tribune, will be public printer, if James ('. Blame can get him there, and he. . says thinks he can. A. J. Bletheu says it is a certainty. WILL SOON BE AT HOME. Secretary Wineloiu Will Shortly Go to Housekeeping. Special to the Globe. Washington, D. C, March The wife of Secretary Windom is in New York. She will be in Washington within two or three days. She will be accompanied by her daughter Ellen, her youngest daughter, Florence, being still at school. The secretary will re side at the hotel until he makes per manent arrangements. A year ago the secretary sold his fine residence on Scott circle to Mr. Munn. a retired merchant of Chicago. Mrs. Munn was the widow of one of the Armours, of Chicago, of cattle-slaughtering and meat-shipping opulence. The secretary will either purchase or rent a residence as soon as practicable, as all the elegaut aud ex fiensive furniture which he had in his muse at the time of the Munn purchase has been stored. Gen. Lew Wallace is announced as a candidate for the Mex ican mission, to succeed Gen. Bragg. This makes the friends of Gen. George Ginty, of Chippewa Falls, look blue and . tired. . DEATH OF MR. TOWNSHEND. Pneumonia Carries Away Con gressman R. W. Townshend, of Illinois. Washington, March .9.—Congress man B. W. Townshend, for many years representative of the Eighteenth Illinois (Shawneetown) district, died at the Riggs house in this city, at about noon to-day. The disease which caused his death was pneumonia, contracted dur ing the closing hours of the last con gress. In his last illness. Mr. Towns hend was attended by his brother, who is health officer of the District of Columbia. Mrs. Townshend and the two children of the deceased were in attendance at the death bed. The details of the funeral have not yst been • decided upon, but it though that the re. . mains wtll be interred in the. congres- *.. sional cemetery, where his * mother is buried. The news of the death of Rep resentative Townshend reached : :: the : capitol shortly after his demise, and the sergeant-at-arms immediately proceeded to the Riggs house ; to assist in making arrangements for the funeral. . The flags on the' senate and house wings I were displayed at half-mast out of re spect to the memory of the deceased. The death of Trfr. Townshend caused a general feeling of . sorrow among those ' members-elect of j the next bouse, who have been associated - with him during his long service In the house, and among the officials and others who knew him well. Mr* Townshend was a. page in the house in the early part of his life - and went to Illinois with ex-Represen tative Marshall, of Illinois, whose dis trict lie afterward represented in the house. The Evening Star says : The death of Representative Townshend will cause as sincere and wides-pread regret in Washington as iv the lllnois district which Mr. Townshend represented. His birth in an adjoining county of Maryland, his boyhood experiences as a page in the house of repre sentatives, his many years of residence here as a member' of the house, aud his services for part of the time on the district committee have combined to interest him in the affairs of this community and to win for him j the friendship, regard and confidence of its people. The loss of him will be felt not only by the district and his Illinois ■ constituents, but by his colleagues in the house and by the public generally, who have recognized and esteemed him as a man of proved ability, industry and rectitude. Richard W. Townshend, of Shawnee town, was born in Prince George's county, Md., April 30, 1840: went to Washington when ten years or age, and ; was there educated at public and pri- i vate schools; removed to Illinois in I 1858: taught school in Fayette county; I studied law with S. S. Marshall at Mc- I Leansborough, was admitted to the bar { in ISO*--, and has since practiced; was I clerk of the circuit court of Hamlin i county 18_".-GS; was prosecuting attor ney for the Twelfth judicial circuit 1868-7*2; removed in 1873 from -Mc- Leansborough to Shawneetown, where he was an officer of the Gallatin Na tional band, was a member of the •Democratic state central committee of Illinois 1564, '05, '74 and '76; was a dele gate to the national Democratic eon uention at Baltimore in 1872; was elected to the Forty-fifth, Forty -sixth, Forty-seventh, Forty-eighth and Fofty ninth congresses and was re-elected to I the Fiftieth congress as a Democrat, receiving 16,316 "votes against 11,972 votes for Martin, Republican, and 758 votes for Link, Prohibitionist. - A TEMPORARY LULL. Officeseekers Not So Numerous as Usual Yesterday. Washington, March The crowds of officeseekers are smaller at this time than on any similar occasion. For the past two or three days the ante-rooms of the cabinet officers in the various departments have been pretty well filled with' visitors. To-day, however, there was a noticeable tailing off, and by noon in the interior department and the postoffice department, all the vis itors who wished to see the heads of ■ the departments had accomplished their object and had left. One explanation is that notice has been given by the heads' of nearly all the departments that no changes would be made for the present, and until there was au opportunity for examining the papers. Postmaster General Wanamaker proposes first to consider the presidential postoffices for which nominations were sent in, but failed of confirmation. He will then " FILL OTHER VACANCIES in this class, and he expects by the end ; of next week to be able to consider the applications for positions in the depart ment's service.

The names of at least three of the candidates for public printer have been formally presented to the ' president, and the in dorsements on some ot them seem to be weighty enough to secure for the appli cants positions in the cabinet. M. D. Helm's papers were placed in the hands of the president by Representatives Gal- . linger, of New Hampshire, Grosvenor. of Ohio, and Browne, of.- Indi ana. The documents . accompany ing .A. --'.ft. Hart's petition * were presented by Senator Evarts, aud signatures thereon were numerous and of considerable '■- value. Senator His cock, ex-Senator Piatt, ex-Senator War ner Miller, nearly all the . representa tives, the entire legislature, and a num ber of the most prominent New York politicians had inscribed their auto graphs to the recommendations^ " Mr.: Donath's cause was ably attended to by Senator Quay, Mr. Fairchilds, Anthony Drexel, Senator Cameron, and by the Pennsylvania delegation. The presi dent has stated very clearly that he will make his selection of public printer not on a man's political strength but or. his merits as a business man and a printer. Mr. Hart's chances seem to be spoiled by this declaration, because his friends do not claim that he is possessed of* technical skill. Mr. Donath's friends, on the other hand, are confident that if ability and experience are the essential requirements their man will get the place. ; -j*jt*-*-_*__i MINNESOTA PEOPLE ■ are looking for several good positions. Among them may be mentioned Rev. Dr. Jackson, (colored) of St. Paul, who wants to be minister to Hayti; William Leduc, the old ex-commissioner of agri culture, who would like to be assistant secretary of agriculture; R. F. Crowell, who desires to be sixth auditor; W. . D. Estes, who thinks a South American consulate is just what he needs; 11. Gersteson who wants a consulate also. It is thought that ex-Senator T. C. Piatt is going to succeed in making Col. Fassett collector of the port of New York, and Col. Eliot F. Shepard ex pects, if he can without upsetting Whitelaw Reid's plans, to represent the United States at Berlin. - THE SENATE COMMITTEES. Here Are the chairmanships as They Will Be Reported Monday. Washington, March 9.— The work of arranging the senate- committees, or at least the majority membership, was completed this afternoon by the Repub lican caucus committee. Their report will be made to a caucus at 12:30 p. m. next Monday. . -It is understood that in tilling the vacant chairmanships pre cedent has been followed. If this has been done without variation, which might arise because of the willingness of some senator to be transferred, or his desire . to serve on some other committee, the chairmanships will be .as follows: On Agriculture- Algernon S. Paddock, of Nebraska; On railroads, John H. Mitchell, of Ore gon; on manufactures, Matthew S. Quay, of Pennsylvania;; on engrossed bills, Wilkinson Call, of Florida. The committee on enrolled bills lost both reports and members by the retirement of Senators Bowen and Sabin. and Sen ator Farwell gets the chairmanship, which gives him a most eligible commit tee room. The Democrats are given a majority on but two or three commit tees instead of nine, as at present, with one equally divided between the two parties. The Democrats are said to be satisfied with the arrangement and di vision of membership, but they evi dently; find; it more difficult to place their men, as they have not yet com pleted the work. * They will not ho. a their caucus until after the Republi cans, probably not before Tuesday.

His Late ; Subjects Despised Him and His Army Hated I ''■ : .mm.--'2}yyy : :2. Some Turbulence Is Noticed in Bulgaria-What It Means. The Prince of Wales Not Per mitted to Meet Boulanger-- Cable Flashes. Special Cable to the Globe. London, March The jubilant feel in? aroused by the abdication of King Milan has not only not yet subsided in Belgrade, but is spreading throughout Servia. No oue "who has, not traveled through Servia within the last two years can estimate the .measure of de testation in which Milan was held by the masses, and consequently the secret joy at his virtual overthrow cannot be conceived. The fact that it would be as impossible for him to return to the throne, except by tlie force of some great power,as it would be for him to usurp the throne of Austria* or Russia, is growing plainer every -day, and, in spite of his retention of the chief com mand of the Servian army, his military power and prestige is fast fading into nothingness Since King Milan was ig nominouslv thrashed by Prince Alex ander of Bulgaria, his influence over the army, except that which he - exer cised as sovereign, has steadily declined until he has finally become the laugh ing stock of an army which, though small in numbers, is too brave to be led by a paltroon. Ie is predicted in the continental capitals, and here as well, that although Milan is recognized as the commander-in-chief of the Servian army, he will never be permitted to lead the Servian soldiers into battle, and indeed, it is well understood that it would not be safe for him to do so. Four-fifths of the Servian ; soldiery are pro-Russian, and not one of I them has forgotten the outrageous treat ment which Milan visited upon his wife, ! a Russian lady. M. Ristis, the head of the Servian board of regents, hates I Milan as he does a snake, and at the! same time he is credited with having i a greater love for Queen Natalie than i one man should have for another man's wife. It has been Natalie's ambition to see her son seated upon the throne of Servia, and it will be strange indeed, now that he is enthroned, if she does not soon find her way back to ■ Belgrade supported by M. Ristis' influence, if not by Russian bayonets. In spite of the fact that Roumania has been conspicuously friendly to Russia, it has been observed that since the ab dication of King Milan. Russian agents have been .very active in Bucharest, Already threats have been made to blow ■up the chamber of deputies with dyna mite, and. it is said, that several nigh officials of the government have been approached by Russian emissaries with a view of securing a definite Russian 'domination of the councils. THK OVEKTHKOW OF KING MILAN, For such the situation really is— is regarded in diplomatic circles a ■ ;:' severe blow to Austrian associations in the Balkans and may possible lead to a war between Russia and Austria. The Radical party in Servia under the leadership of Mm. Gruiteh and Ristieis are in fayor of drawing closer to Russia and were warm supporters of Queen Natalie through all her troubles with her husband. Turning them over,-' King Milan. under took the "revision ; of tho - constitution. Many important changes were effected in the constitution. Individual . liberty and freedom of the press were guaran teed; all religious sects were placed on a footing of equality : . the suffrage was extended to all men paving 15 francs ay. year iin taxes, .and all classes of the : community were made eligible for the position ,of . deputies, only a fourth of the chamber to consist of ex officio : members. The king, however, still retained the right of declaring peace and war and the power of pro roguing and summoning the skupts china. Milan's Austrian views did not suit the Radicals and they demanded a further amendment of the constitution permitting the : chamber to meet inde pendently of the royal pleasure, and vesting the representatives of the peo ple with tly** power of declaring peace and' war. - There was not -the least chance of the revision committee advis ing such a sudden _ and revolutionary change, but, unfortunately for Austria, Milan's difficulties with his wife caused him to be regarded by his subjects with a sentiment of very ill-disguised and very well deserved - contempt. Conse quently at the recent election the Radi cals were returned with a fair working majority. Milan would have abdicated then but ' for the *j want "of sufficient means to support something approach ing royal state in private life. But the king was poor and dare not ask the Servian people for a substantial re tiring allowance, so he chose the only alternative and knocked under to the Radicals. The revised constitution was j then subjected to a further revision on Radical lines and the! situation tempo rarily patched up. Finally this week Mm. Gruitchand Ristics concluded to grant Milan an allowance out of the state treasury, so * that he might leave the country, as a longer stay would pro voke disturbances -throughout Servia and precipitate action on the part of both Russia and Austria by compelling both powers to support their party iv Servia. . THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK IN BULGARIA is also about as black as possible. The relations between M. Stambouloff, the prime minister, and Prince Ferdinand, have boeome so strained that either the one or the other must go, and either event would be favorable to Russian in terests in the Balkans. | Both M. Stam bouloff and the prince are pro-Austrian politically, but the estrangement lies in the fact that Ferdinand desires the min ister of war, Ccl. Mutkuroff, removed. The latter however, is M. Stambouloff's brother-in-law, of whose vote he is al ways certain. Prince Ferdinand coin- I plains that he is a nonentity, and main tains that he ought to be the actual head of the army, instead of be | ing, as he is, only the nominal i one. M. Stambouloff's party . has j a large majority in the Sobranje i and the prime minister declines to ac- I cede to the prince's request. However, I the persecution to which M. Stamboul- I off, the "king maker," subjected Maj. I Papoff. one of the best Bulgarian offi cers and one of the heroes* of the Ser vian war, has engendered feelings of deep irritation throughout the country against the premier . which may result in his overthrow. If some means of ex trication are not speedily devised . for a way out of the difficulty between the prince and his minister, tlie conse quences will be very important. The present situation in Roumania is simi lar to that of Servia. Pro-Russian and anti-Russian lines are so sharply drawn that the pro-Russians, who are in the majority, may at any moment compel King Charles to abdicate, while the state oi politics in Hungaria only in vites Russian ascenaucy and assures the weakness of . the Triple Alliance. Neither Mme. Adam in the Nouvelle Revue, nor the writer in the Contempo rary Review gave the origin of the bad feeling which sprang up between the Prince of Wales and Count Herbert Bis- , marck, at the time of the late Emperor Frederick's funeral. It is learned on undoubted authority that 2'X': the coolness Arose from the cavalier manner in which the count treated the Prince of Wales when I the latter attempted to fulfill a delicate \ diplomatic mission with which he was v entrusted. J* The matter was concerned with the Brunswick succession, and the prince undertook the mission at the re quest of the * Duchess . of . Cumberland, whose -,. entreaties .; were supported by ; her *■:,* \ sisters, -.- , the . Princess of .Wales* ":':, and . - the czarina. Dr. Carl Peters is mistaken in stating that Lieut. Swayne has "stuck" ninety one miles from the coast in his attempt ! to reach Emm Pasha through British East Africa. The fact is Lieut. Swayne never intended yto go to Emm Pasha, and is at present at Aden. Mr. Jack son, however, with whom is Mr. J. T. Last, did leave Mombaza some time ago', with the intention, if possible, of push ing on to Wadelai. He and his caravan have come to a dead stop 400 miles from . their starring point in the neighborhood * of Lake Naivasha. The drought is so great that it has proved utterly impos sible to proceed. . Moreover, it is certain news of Stanley and Emm has reached the British foreign office, there is now less need of Mr. Jackson proceeding to his original destination. About twenty years ago prize-fighting had apparently died out, and even boxing was a lost art. Now there ' is a prize fight about once a week, and in London no enter tainment is so certain to "draw" as a BIG BOXING COMPETITION. The revival of 'the prize ring is chiefly due to "Lord Queensberry's rules." It was quickly discovered tuat under the conditions drawn up by Lord Queensberry severe punishment might be inflicted with the gloves, and those who witnessed such contests naturally longed for the more brutal form of fighting with the bare fists. Then again, it has been found comparatively easy to elude the police, if only a few spectators, each paying a high sura, are allowed to witness the fight. The next time the police succeed in catching a prize-fighting party in flagrante delicto, the public will be surprised and scan dalized to learn that not a few members of the aristocracy and of parliament are concerned in the resuscitation of this peculiarly English form of gladiatorial shows. - . - ■ ,'":;■■,■ WALES CALLED DOWN. He Is Not Permitted To Meet Gen. Boulanger. Special to the Globe. London, March 9.— The Prince of Wales had Intended to dine with Gen. Galliffet last evening, at whose table he was invited to meet Gen. Boulanger. The fact of the prince's acceptance of the invitation leaked out and was speedily communicated to the British foreign office. Immediately it was hinted in a delicate, but unmistak ably plain manner to the prince that he would better not keep the engagement, and he conse quently sent his regrets and dined with Lord Lytton, with whom he went to the theater later. It -is rumored that the Archduchess Stephanie, the widow of the not-much lamented Crown Prince Rudolph, who is living in strict seclu sion in the castle at Miramar, the tor mer residence of Emperor Miximillian, erstwhile of Mexico, is enceinte.
