THE TIMES. Published Evkky Thursday. I)K. J. II. DANIEL, Editor aid Proprietor. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. (From Our tteorular Correiindent J While the country is holding its breath awaiting the result of the tar iff debate in Congress, this feeling ot anxiety finds but aijt expression among the country a legislators, judg ing from their attendance on the Dight sessions of the tariff debates. The night sessions of the House have been attended by less than twenty-five members on an average, and so far as colleagues are concerned the tariff orator has spoken to a rush of cold air, A fair illustration of this was shown a few nights ago. Congress .man Waugb, of Indiana, closed a speech against the Wilson bill at 10 -JO o'clock amidst thunderbus ap plauoa from the galleries. On the floor the silence was so dense as to be appalling. Only two members wer9 preseatthere were 352 absent tees. These' two were detainded by stress af circumstances. One was the Speaker pro tempore, and the other the chairman of the Committee of the Whole. When the Indiana .Congressman concluded he started fox the House restaurant. This left the Speaker pro tempore as the only person who could move that the Com mittee rise. No recognition or re sponse came from the chair-the chair man was fast asleep. Finally the chairman awoke with a start, and de clared the motion carried. Then the 1 chairman turned the gavel over to the gpeaker pro tempore, the chairman becoming the House and the House becoming the Speaker. Then the Bout adjourned ana the two mem -berg rent home. With lowering skies the rush for office continues, Men, women and children are inyolved. The hard times increase the rush. What adds to the pathetic character of the hunt is the fact that those who are in office aake most desperate efforts to retain their positions. The civil service law is Uie only protection for them, but there ere many places not subject to civil oerrice regulations. In former administrations politics has been an important factor in the distribution of these places. It is a factor to a far less degree iu the present admins istration. The wishes of the Reprp aentatives and of the Senators are more frequently disregarded. Some are never consulted as to federal ap. p ointments in their districtor estate. Yerv little trouble. The Post Office Department fairly swarms with applications for office. The main patronage is in the fourth class post offices. It was in their distribution that Adlai E. Stevenson made his reputation as headsman. The record shows that Fourth As sistant Postmaster General Maxwell works the guillotine onthese offices steadily. In the aggregate., he has made more removals since helias been in office than Clarkson made in the same time. The Capitol as well as the Department affords the field upon which the army of office seekers oper j ate in Washington. It is an army i without suDDlies. Its siKfnn,,nA i seems to be drawn from hope alone. CongreSStonal .aflaence, nine cas I out of ten, i s a basis for this hope bat it almost invariably proves a mirage. The applicant, in the end finds himself without food or drink, and drifts homeward sadder, if not wiser. The Uawlian snare is playing the part of Banquo's ghost for the Sen ate. Notwithstanding the efforts of the friends of the President to keep the matter under the surface as much as possible, the en?mies of the admin istration manage to bring the Haw aiian question up every few days in a waj' that shows that they do not propose to wait until the committee on foreign relations has completed its investigation of the case. But the indications now are that the Sen ate committee engaged in the work of investigating Hawaiian affairs is approaching the conclusion of its la bors, and that their report will prob 1 ablv be made within the next ten days or two weeks. The President is reported to have made up his mind not to send any more nominations to the Senate un til the nomintion of Mr. Peckham for the Supremo Bench and a large number of others that have been pending for a long time have been disposed of. lie is said to have sta ted to a Western Representative that out of sixteen names recently sent to the Senate nine were so-called Hill men and seven were accounted to en tertain strong sentiments of loyalty for Cleveland. The nine Hill men wers promptly confirmed, the seven Cleveland men are sill waiting the pleasure of the Senate. It is explained that Richard Crock er, theTammany boss, came to Wash ington to attend an afternoon tea and not-to fight the income tax, and that it is all right if he did come to fight the income tax. Nothing could be cleaver or more satisfactory than this comprehensive explanation. After the Crockerian social conquests that marked the entertainment of the In franta of Spain, it is natural that Mr. Crocker should aspire to polish him self to perfection as a highflyer at fashion" by a brief post-graduate course in the Washington social "swim". But Mr. Crocker is a con querer in other fields than the parlor, and an attack by Tammany through him on the proposed income tax means an appreciable disturbance of the democratic political surface.
