New York, Nov, 22, President elect Cleveland left towu today in search of mucji needed rest. Since the election he has been fairly overrun with callers and the volume ol his correspondence has been something enormous. The Presi dent-elect's appearance today indicated fatigue. In speaking of the necessity of relief from the annoyances which arc his duilv lot at home he said : "I have been amazed and exceedingly grateful at the thousands of letters of congratulations which I -have received from Americans of every station in life and from every quarter of the land. It has been, however, utterly impossible for me to even read letters of that descrip tion, because of the other interruptions which thus far seemed unavoidable, I appreciate, however, the friendliness which these letters indicate and shall not omit, as time allows, to read every one of them. These good Iriends of course will not expect any replies to their commuricntions, for that would be utterly out of the question and the most tbatI can do is to sav through the press that I am not unmindful of their kind ness. "Many of the callers whom I have been obliged to receive would not, I think, have encroached upon my time if they had given the matter a moment's thought. Those who have called upon me to talk about offices, it seems to me, have been a little inconsiderate, certainiv premature. I desire to gtve as much publicity as possible to the statement that 1 do not propose to consider npoli cations for office prior to my inaugura- lion, and I shall avoid all interviews on that subject. Those who, under any pretence, again obtain an opportunity to present their applications orally and those who bur den me at this time with written appli cations cannot possiblv do any thing that would so interfere with their chances of success. "Written applications will be so little regarded, I doubt it they will ever fee the files in Washington, for there is no reason or decency in my being over whelmed with such muttersnt this time. Upon being asked how long he ex pected to be away, Mr. Cleveland re plied : As to tn&t l am not certain. 1 ex pect, however, to be absent about two weeks and when 1 return, unless 1 am somewhat relieved from the unnecessary demands upon my time, l shall shut up my house in the city and find some quieter place to spend the winter. Cer tainly between now and the fourth ol March, I should have some time to de vote to other matters than receiving cal ler s." It is said, and generally believed, that the place selected bv President-elect Cleveland at which to inend-.il brief va cation which he has planned to take, is in the mountains ol North Carolina The place is an ideal winter home, situ ated in the heart of the Blue Kidge mountains, and sufficiently inaccessible to daunt the spirits of the most persist ent slate maker or office seeker. New Trial Ordered In the Robb Casein Charleston. Charleston, S. C, Nov. 22. The Su preme court of the State has ordered a new trial in the suit over the estate of Wo, Robb, for many years a prominent business man of Charleston. The case raises the question whether a childless unmarried man of alleged illegitimate birth can have any legal heir. Mr. Robb was a Scotchman and came to this city many years ago. He died in 1885, leaving property valued at nearly $150,000. Mrs. Jean Robb Muir, of Woodcross, Utah, claimed the estate as Robb s sistet. Iter claim was contested by tbe State, to which the estate was de clared escheated on double ground: First, that Koub was an illegitimate child and could have no heirs, and, second, that when he bequeathed, as in his will, he meant his lawful relation, and as he had none his unlawful relations could not take it. Mrs. Muir was non-suited be cause she was not able to conclusively prove the marriage of Kobb's father and mother, and because the court held that there was no competent testimony to show who were the persons referred to in the will. The higher court now reverses the de cision and orders a new trial. The case is a novel one and raised points new, not only in this Stale, but in this country. MONETARY CONFERENCE- NORTH AND NORTHWEST, 0 Pi Dr. von Rack Has) Been Dolus; Good Work for Asheville. Dr. Karl von Ruck has returned to the city from his business trip embracing several of the largest cities in the West and Northwest. The Doctor has spent a couple of weeks advertising his sani tarium particularly and Asheville in gen eral. While away He talked with many eminent physicians in Chicago, Cincin nati, St. Louis, Columbus and Toledo and believes that, judging from the as surances given him, Asheville will have a large number of winter visitors from thoye points, lie says he tound every where a prejudice against Asheville created by the very unusual winter of two years ago. He did all in his power dissipate these pmudiccs, and, he thinks, successfully. On the train which he returned to Asheville were patients who will spend the winter here The Doctor only regrets that he had not more time to devote to his advertising trip. He says Asheville will have n good winter patronage. The Wmyab sanitarium, under urs. von Ruck and Ambler, will be opened the latter part of this week. STREET RAILWAY NEWS.
