r - AO SOUTHERN RAID. 1,
Washington letter writers' Call at
tention to the fact that as yet there
is no "indication ef any rush, for of
fice by Southern people under Cleve
land's administration. Neither has
there been to Albany a rush of Soath .
ern ptiiticlana to volunteer advice to
Mr Cleveland as to the, make-up of
cabinet. &c. Resolutions have been
passed by a number of Northern or
ganizations favoring the appointment
to certain places in the cabinet of
citizens of the States to which these
organizations belonged There has
been nothing of this kind, and thus
far there has been no formal declara
tion of any organized, body in the
South in favor of anybody. It is
true the names of a number of prom
inent Southern Democrats have been
mentioned in the public J prints in
connection with cabinet positions,'
but there has been no effort made to
"boom" them, so to speak, nor will
there be The South of course ex-
peets recognition, and ; . would ; be
pleased to find that this recognition
was not a mere matter of form, con
sisting of giving an appointment in
compliance with sectional desire, but
thorough, practical, business like re
cognition that, regardless of sectional
lines, will select from the best brains
of the South the nien to take part in
th cabinet councils i ' and charge
'of the departments that may be ias
'sicned to them. She does not want
to see men selected for cabinet po
sitions simply because they are from
the South, but because, while from
the South, they are also men of . ca
pacity for the full discharge, of tle
duties devolving upon, . them, -The
Southern people have .confidence
enough in Mr. Cleveland's business
methods and good 'judgment to Be
lieve that .whilst paying proper r re
gard to the usages, , recognizing the
different sections of the country, "ho
will select such a cabinet as will, be
an aid to him in the good work bo
fore him, and reflect credit, hot upon
any; particular section,, but upon - the
whole countrv; The South believes
alan that in the matter of : his ap'
pointmen.ts.to other positions f ais
criminating judgment will be shown.
In addition to this, whilst there are
thousands of Southern men with
weakness for public position, they
have not the disposition to rush in
and "grab" as the boys . say, as men
from other sections do. - They . have
not been schooled that : way. and
since i860 have hadt if so disp osed.
few opportunities for lli-tt kind of
schooling. They are governed . to
'.greater or less extent by respect for
appearances I This feeling results in

3.000,000 Acres Leased tar One Cent
,.-,f r . ' an Acre. . . .... ,
Senator Dawes presented a petition
m the benate," Wednesday, which
was reJerred to -the .committee on
Indian affairs,! asking that steps be
taken to prohibit - the carrying into
effect of a lease for grazing"purposes
on the Crow , Indian' reservation,
made, with the Indians by a syndicate
of capitalists and cattle-men. Mr.
Dawes: said it was rumored that a
lease of 3,000,000 acres had been made
for the price of one cent an acre. He
had been surprised to find that no in
formation of such a lease existed in
the Interior Department. . : In order
to quiet tne apprenensiens of the
people of Moqitana, .he .would . state
tnat no such tease could legally exist
without the sanction - or approval of
the Secretary of the Interior, and it
did not seem to Mr. Dawes possible
that the .Secretary could , sanction
such a lease.
Mr., vest said he had offered a reso ¬
lution, which the Senate had agreed
to, calling on the Interior Department
for , information as to such a lease.
but no reply had been made.- It was
extraordinary, ne -thought, that a
transaction involving 3,000,000 acres
of Indian lands should be published
iu the press ..without attracting the
notice of the Interior Department.
Subsequently Mr. Dawes offered a
resolution, whioh was adopted, call
ing upon the Secretary of the Interior
for all information in his possession.
llnildins Operations in Jiew York.
The official record of building oper
ations in New York during the past
eleven months shows that however
other branches of business have been
running behind, this one has, on the
whole, held its own.' The number of
houses erected was 2,639. an increase
of 211 over the year previous, bulrthe
total cost (f40.089.073) is less :.than
1883 ana the year:Br6vKSas,-wliich is
due to t he fact that there are fewer
large "l&partment houses and office
building than in previous seasons.
The conveyances for - the eleven
months also make au imposing total,
and warrant the statement that by
the close of the year the records will
show that nearly $200,000,000 has
been invested in Manhattan Island
real estate in one shape or another,
and that, in addition to this, pot less
than $42,000,000 has been exiended in
the construction of new edihces. "

New York Commercial Advertiser.
By direction of the B ard of Health
a squad of sanitary policemen went
the round to-day among the thirteen
wholesale candy manufacturers
where Dr. C. Edson found poisonous
colors in use, and seized all the yellow
candy and all the sugar toys that
were decorated with red, green or
yellow. All the confiscated bon-bons,
weighing altogether near; two tons,
were dumped at the offal dock after
they had been treated to a generous
bato of crbolic acid.". In : one or two
E laces manufacturers were found to
avo shipped the dangerous stuff to
the country and to have thus got rid
of it. In the others the colored candy
was surrendered under protest, as it
was understood that only in that way
could the manufacturers avoid arrest.
