be of too much importance to be
decided by anything less than a full
bench. Among these cases are what is
known as the Say ward case, vhich in
volves several of the questions in dispute
between Great Britain, and the United
States as to the rights of the latter in
Behring Sea the case involving the
validity of the McKinley tariff act, and
that to determine the constitutionality of
the act shutting the lotteries out of the
mails. The session starts out with a
larger number of cases upon the docket
than Ihe Court has ever before had, and
although the act creating the new Cir
cuit or Appelate Court was intended to
relieve the Supreme Court other legisla
tion exacted at the same session will add
much more to its labors than ihe new
court can possibly relieve it of. The
Indian depredation cases referred to the
Court of Claims, of which there are
something like 15,000, are appealable to
the Supreme Court. So also are cases

it is predicted iliat it will be almost
swamped with them. It is evident that
something has got to be done in the near

lost his se.it in Congress because of his
opposition to the principles advocated by
the Alliauce, had been the supposed
favorite of Mr. Harrison up to the
advent of an Alliance candidate. The
appointment of Mr. Clements would, it
is said, be regarded by the Alliance as a
direct and intentional affront to tliut
organization. Many people believe that
if no other candidate is put forward by
rhe Alliance, unci Mr. Dewean receives
the endorsement of the State alliances
that his friends expect him to get, that
he will secure the prize. It is regarded
by many as only justice that the
Farmers' Alliance should have a repres
entative on the board of Commissioners.
The next thing Secretary forter knows
he will have acquired the fame of a real,
genuine reformer. He told some New
York politicians, members of his party,
who told liim he had better go slow in
making changes in the New York
Custom house that would affect the
party workers, that "efficient service at

the Custom House is the best political
move thai any party can inaugurate,
and I believe that the merchant*, irres
pective of partisan considerations, will
agree with me: Now, Mr. Foster has
only to act up to his talk to make a
great reputation among those who have
business relations with the New York
Custom House.
Mr. Harrison has refused to issue an
order allowing Goverment employes
whose regular leave of absence lias all
been used up, to go home to vote with
out loss of pay. He could not have is
sued such an order without violating the
law, but all the same he was asked to do
it.
The time for Secretary lilaiue to re
sume his official duties has now been ex
tended by Madame liunior until after
the fall elections, although it is difficult
to discover how there can possibly be
any connection between the two things.
Owing to the State campaigns, poli

J}undrocl of the most distinguished
Methodists in the world, who are in at
tendance upon the Ecumenical confer
ence of that church, now in session here,
more than reconciles our people to the
absence of the politicians. The confer
ence has been a great success, and every
thing has so far passed off smoothly,
although the refusal of some of the
hotels to accomodate the colored
brethren for a time threatened to make
trouble, but quarters were found for
them elsewhere.
