INDIANA IN THE CABINET. Relations of tlie New Postmaster-Gen-eral with State Politics. Incidents of General Gresham’s CareerSome of His Personal Traits-Hls Home Life—Press Comment. Special to New York Tribune. There is some talk to the effect that Judge Gresham’s appointment will not be regarded with unalloyed satisfaction by Senator Harrison, who was his successful competitor in the last senatorial contest, but there is no reason to believe that General Harrison will throw any difficulties in the way. The trouble between Judge Gresham and the popular Indiana representative, General Browne, is of a personal nature, and at one time the latter was extremely bitter, believing that he had been deeply wronged. While the new Postmaster-general will thus go into office without the mo9t perfect good will of some of his party associates in Indiana, there is probably not one among them wiio will not concede his high ability and irreproachable integrity. The unfriendliness toward him, which finally prevented his selection as a member of President Garfield’s cabinet, is probably less active and pronounced now than it was two years ago. Personal Incidents of General Gresham. Richmond Palladium. It is stated, with great probability, that one of the causes for General Grant’s liking for General Gresham was an occurrence which happened while the latter was in a subordinate command near Vicksburg. A trader, it appears, approached General Gresham and attempted to bribe him to allow cotton to go through the lines. General Gresham promptly and indignantly kicked the would-be briber out of his tent. There is another incident, doubtless true, which Shows the indomitable courage and determination of our distinguished citizen: Along about 18GG or 1868 he was the Republican nominee for Congress in the Second district, where the Democratic majority was 4,000 or 5,000. Dubois county, Democratic by 2,000 or 2,500, was then, as it has been ever since, very intolerant of Republicans. On many occasions Republican canvassers and speakers have been maltreated in certain localities there, and almost mobbed. General Gresham was announced to speak at Jasper, the county seat, and threats were made that ho would not be allowed to do so. At the time appointed he took the stand in the court-house, which was tilled with an unfriendly crowd, and, laying a pistol before him, announced that he intended to address the audience, and didn’t propose to be interrupted, and that anybody who made any hostile demonstration would do so at his peril. It is needless to say that he was listened to 'With fear and respect, if not with approbation. Washington Special to Chicago Tribune. “What are Gresham’s personal traits?” I asked of Colonel Moulton, of Cincinnati. “Personally, lie is everywhere respected; his home life has always been a source of great pleasure to Judge Gresham, and he drew around him a circle of refined, cultivated and intellectual men and women, which made his home one of the most enjoyable I ever knew. He is not a rich man, and there is none of that snobbishness or arrogance about his home which wealth so often brings; but Judge Gresham is personally so w'ell liked, and his family are so interesting, that he has by common consent established one of the most charming family circles in Indianapolis. I remember one little instance connected with Judge Gresham, which illustrates one phase of his character very well. When the war broke out Gresham's regiment, the Thirty-second Indiana, I believe, was sent to the front under General Sherman, and when the young Colonel went to General Sherman to report for duty, Sherman rather bluntly ordered him to post a line of pickets at the front, somewhere in Kentucky. I think. “ -But lam just from my law office, and I do not know anything about posting picket lines, General. Had you better not intrust that to someone with more experience?’ “ ‘You say you don’t know how to post pickets?’ growled Sherman. ‘Well, sir, you are the first new colonel I have seen who did not know all about the entire campaign. There is some hope for you.’ ” Colonel Moulton added that among the ex-soldier element Gresham’s appointment would meet with great favor. He is a member of the Society of the Army of the Tennessee. Special to Courier-Journal. Some Mississippi and Louisiana people here, who remember the new Postmastergeneral when he was in command of troops stationed at Natchez, Miss., during the war, speak of him in very complimentary terms. It seems that while at Natchez, General Gresham was taken sick with malarial fever, and went over in Tensas parish to the residence of Hailer Nutt, who was a prominent planter, and remained there until his recovery. The members of Mr. Nutt’s family became warmly attached to him, and one of them, in speaking of him to-day, said he possessed qualities that commanded their respect and won their friendship. General Grant’s Feelings. Now York Special. General Grant, who is credited with having first suggested Postmaster-general Howe’s appointment, and whose wishes are said to have been considered in the appointment of Howe’s successor, said: “I first made General Gresham’s acquaintance in the early part of the war, when I first started out from Cairo. He served under me, and I don’t know a man who is better qualified to perform the duties of the office than he. His appointment will be received by the Republican part}', and the people generally, with satisfaction, lam sure! I heartily commend the wisdom of the appointment, and consider it one of the very best that could be made.” Comment of the State Press. Logunsport Journal. The people of Indiana can feel justly proud of the distinction conferred upon one of her best citizens in the nomination of Judge Gresham to the position of Postmastergeneral. lie is one of the foremost men in the State, both politioaUy and mentally, and will bring to the duties of his office an activity that will soon make itself felt Terre Haute Express. Judge Gresham is respected on all sices for the unflinching courage of his convictions and his high moral character. At the head of the Postoffice Department he will be, strictly speaking, an executive officer, and wc are greatly mistaken if he does not rapidly gain a reputation above that generally acquired by cabinet officers. Peru Republican. The appointment honors our State. Judge Gresham is a man eminently qualified to be an adviser of the President. Asa lawyer he is thoroughly versed in the Federal statutes; as a man his character is without reproach and his integrity unquestioned. He is a man of sterling worth, who stands by principle With unswerving fidelity. Hancock Democrat. This is probably as good an appointment as Arthur could have made, as Juagc Gresham is esteemed by all who know him as a man of ability and integrity. Greonsbnnr Standard. This is one act of President Arthur’s administration that no one—political friend or '* foe—-who knows the recipient, can find fault

with. Judge Gresham bears the scars of honorable warfare—for the party, in the caucus and on the hustings; and for the country, on the battle-field, of which latter he bears the evidence on his person. EranHvillo Tribune. Judge Gresham possesses just those qualities most necessary in a Postmaster-general, executive and judicial ability, common sense and uncommon honesty. The position offers but little opportunity for a brilliant career, but there is a chance in it for conscientious work, which will be thoroughly appreciated and rewarded by the country. New Albany Republican. President Arthur has shown his good sense in a commendable manner by this appointment, as lie could not have selected a more honest, efficient or popular man in the State for the position, and all who know the Judse have the assurance that the duties of his office will ever be performed with the most scrupulous efficiency and honesty. Michigan City Enterprise. Judge Gresham’s appointment will bring honor to the State, and in the cabinet as a counsellor and adviser, he will be invaluable. By the appointment President Arthur has evidently sought to strengthen his administration as well as please the people, both of which he has succeded admirably in doing. Evansville Journal. Judge Gresham is abreast with the best thought of the age, and being a progressive man and in sympathy with the progressive spirit of the age, the country may look for the department over which he is called to preside to keep pace with the increasing demands of our busy social and commercial life. South llcnd Tribune. There is both surprise and satisfaction over the appointment of Judge Walter Q. Gresham*, of New Albany, this State, to the position of Postmaster-general. Surprise because lie had not been mentioned for the position, and satisfaction because he is a brave soldier and an incorruptible judge. Grooncnstlo Banner. This recognition of a gallant soldier and able jurist is received with universal satisfaction. It is also such a recognition of Indiana Republicans as shows that the President is not without political foresight. Judge Gresham will make a Postmaster-general second to none that have preceded him. Lafayette Journal. The appointment is all the more fitting and proper in that it comes unsolicited. The office seeks the man. It is the work of no lobby or scheming politician. In the high position he has been called to General Gresham will reflect credit upon the Republican party of Indiana. Lafayette Courier. No more gratifying intelligence could have come to the people of Indiana than the announcement that Hon. Walter Q. Gresham, judge of the United States Court, one of the most honored of her representative citizens, had been tendered the position of Postmastergeneral. Martinsville Republican. Every citizen of Indiana, whatever his politics. ought to rejoice in the appointment of Judge Walter Q. Gresham to the Postmastergeneralship. We are sure that every good citizen does rejoice in the appointment, and feels a justifiable State pride in it. Martinsville Republican. The appointment is a most happy one for the Republicans of Indiana ami for the country at large, and President Arthur has added an able and wise counsellor to his already brilliant cabinet, in the person of .Judge Gresham. Ilielmiond Independent. There has never been a cabinet appointment that gave greater satisfaction to the Republicans and commanded the respect of their opponents to a greater degree than that of Judge Gresham, Madison Courier. General Gresham is a man qualified for any olfice from President down. If he accepts the Postmaster-general’s portfolio he will do Indiana and the administration credit. Madison Star. The Star rejoices in his appointment, and felicitates the Republicans of Indiana upon the recognition, coming as it has at last, of their services by the head of the Republican party. Liberty Herald. Indiana Republicans are especially jubilant at this merited recognition by the President. and the appointment meets the enthusiastic approval of the party in this State, Now Albany Ledger (Deni.). It is one of the most popular acts of the present administration, and one which will reflect credit on the judgment of Mr. Arthur. Muncle News. The appointment is an excellent one. Mr. Gresham is one of our best men, and will honor the position and the State. FROM THE RANKS. Work of Mr. "Walter Scott in Perfecting Printing Presses. Chicago Inter Ocean. It lias been evident for some time that Messrs. Hoe & Cos. would be compelled to purchase Mr. Scott’s patents or content themselves with a very small portion of the press business of the United States. As nearly as we can learn Mr. Scott has sold and put up within the last two years more than three times as many rotary perfecting web presses as Messrs. Hoe A Cos. and the Bullock Company combined. The Scott machine is wonderfully compact, simple and rapid, and it seems only a question of time when it will supplant the more cumbersome ones of Messrs. Hoe and Bullock. It has been less than four years since Mr. Scott made arrangements for the building of his presses. Previous to August. 1879, he was, and had been for some years, foreman of the InterJOeean press-room. He was a skilled mechanic, with a wonderfully practical genius for invention. He delighted in new methods, and the fact that others had failed to accomplish a thing did not satisfy him that it could not he done. In the inter Ocean press-room he learned the defects of the old machines, saw the needs of the daily press, and thought out his improvements, which have revolutionized the press business. He there built and successfully attached to a per.ecting press a folder and paster for the first time in the United States, if not in the world. It is still in successful operation, occupying the position he first gave it. Other pressmen and machinists at first laughed at him, and said he could not do it, and then, after he succeeded, tried to steal his invention from him. In spite of all, ho completely succeeded, and improvements and inventions followed each other in such quick succession, and were withal so practical, that, as we said before, his machines were rapidly replacing all others. After less than four years in business as a press builder he retires with a handsome fortune variously estimated at from $250,000 to $300,000. It must be added to Mr. Scott’s credit that ho reduced the price of perfecting presses at least 33 % per cent., and it is most probably a misfortune to the newspapers of tlie country that he goes out of the business so soon.

TILE PANAMA CANAL. The Work of Excavation Commenced—The Company Thoroughly iu Earnest. New York Herald. From conversation with the officers of the Panama Canal Company, as well as with others acquainted with affairs on the isthmus, and from personal observation of the works, drawings and plans, Lieutenant Rodgers, of the United States navy, draws the following conclusion: That the preliminary work of fixing and clearing the route, of erecting docks, quarters, machine shops, machinery, rolling ! stock, etc., and the accumulating of material i and personnel has been so far advanced that : the work of excavation will be vigorously ' begun by the beginning of the next dry sea- ' son. That the work of excavation has already j been begun at two points on the line. That the increase of means of tran sport a- ; tion, which has heretofore been insufficient, and the completion of machinery now on i the isthmus, will soon enable this work to j advance rapidly. Thatjthere can no longer be doubt as to the intention of the company to carry out the proposed plan of this canal. The date fixed by M. J)e Lesseps for its completion is 1888, and the present superior agent, Captain Richier, is sanguine that this will be accomplished. He also believes that the canal can be made for the amount estimated, 600,000,000 francs. But I infer from conversation with canal engineers, and with others well versed in affairs, that the canal will not be finished for some years later, and that the cost will largely exceed the estimate. And it seems probable that this will undergo the experience of many other great projects—that the original subscribers must again subscribe or lose their venture, and that new stockholders will be the ones to ohare the profits. Up to the present date about 130,000,000 francs have been expended. In this amount the cost of all machinery, ordered or received, is included, as well as the purchase of property. The cost of the Panama railway, believed to be about $17,000,000, however, is not included in this amount, special arrangements having been made for its purchase. A short time since the eminent New York engineer, Mr. Stevens, was invited to inspect the works and the studies for plans. I hear he suggested that two or three locks be introduced in order to simplify the difficulties and to lessen the cost of construction. But a canal a niveau has been determined upon, and is to be built if the money can he raised and the climate does not prove too deadly to the laborers. It seems probable that, witu the work well begun and advanced, neither difficulty will prove insurmountable. ‘‘A DI ROND AC K” MU K RAY. Being Interviewed in New York, He Denies Several New Stories About Himself. New York Special. The Rev. W. 11. 11. Murray, better known as “Adirondack” Murray, about whom astory was recently published from Boston, concerning an alleged escapade in Texas, is at the Astor House. When asked to-day about the truth of the story, that he had fled from San Antonio to escape his creditors, lie replied: “There is not a word of truth in the whole of it. I left San Antonio openly, and was seen by fifty people who knew me when I bought my railroad ticket. I came right through by rail to New York, and did not see any lady with whom I was acquainted on the entire trip. This new attack on me comes from George F. Field, a partner in my lumber company in Texas. No, don’t say that, for I don’t positively know k, but I am morally certain of it. Field was a partner, together with myself and two others, in the saw-mill company, I being managing partner. He agreed to put $9,000 into the concern, hut only put in $l,lOO. He then sued the other partners for $750, and on that small sum attached the property of the company. It is too late for me to prepare any connected story of the trouble, but you can say that the attacks on Mr. Murray are from a partnership dispute, which has been taken into the United States Court for adjudication.” “What about the statement of your indebtedness of $12,000 in Texas?” was asked. “That’s another lie. I don’t owe anything in Texas; Well, yes, there are two men that personally I owe perhaps SSOO. But you can say that Mr. Murray doesn’t owe over SSOO to anyone in Texas, nor does the partnership owe anything.” Not a Model Detective. San Francisco Call. Yesterday afternoon, a young lady, wearing a look of innocence upon her countenance, entered police headquarters, and glancing around from one to another of the many men assembled there, as if searching for some particular person, walked up to one of the clerks and timidly asked for a detective. “Any particular one?” asked the clerk. “No, sir,” was the reply, given in a halfwhisper. “Pray be seated.” said the clerk, offering the lady a chair; “as soon as one comes in—l expect one in every moment—l will present him to you.” In a few moments one of the detective force, who is noted among his brother officers as caring more for his business than for style and line clothes, came in and was introduced to the young lady in waiting, and at his request she accompanied him into an adjoining office. Before stating her business, or even taking a seat which the officer offered her, she looked at him from head to foot for a few moments, and then asked, “Are you really a detective?” This question brouilit a blush to the officer’s face and for a second he seemed staggered and at a loss for an answer, but he soon recovered his composure, assured the lady that lie was a detective and inquired why she had asked that question. “To be frank with you,” said the lady, after more hesitation, “i never have had anything to do with policemen or detectives. I never saw but one detective in my life, and he was pointed out to me by a friend as he was passing by us on the street. He was dressed in the most fashionable of clothes, wore a huge diamond scarf-pin, a double chain with lock pendant, and a big diamond ring on his finger. I supposed that all the detectives aressed like that, and therefore when I saw you and failed to observe all this finery of dress and diamonds I thought you were only a plain policeman.” The officer smiled and proceeded to take notes of the case the lady had to lay before him. Ministers an<l the Hunko Men. New York Special. At the session of the New York Methodist Conference to-day, Rev, Dr. Buckley, of the Christian Advocate, warned the members against confidence men. as two brethren had already been deceived by these sharpers, ami lie gave ((description ot the methods of bunko men: “The scoundrels,” Dr. Buckley said, “have been lying in wait for ministers connected with the conference as they were visiting the Methodist Book Concern, and nabbed them as they were going up or coming down stairs. I accidentally came upon n minister in the clutches of a confidence man. The minister, whose name I won’t divulge, was just about to sign a check for $175. The confidence man had approached him ami represented himself as the brother-in-law of a well-known presiding elder. Some of the confidence men have been trying to work their little games with ministers in front of this very church this morning.” Strictly Professiouiil Conduct. Boston Herald. Lawyer Bigelow’s claim for one-half of the money bestowed by a patriotic people on the wife and baby of Sergeant Mason reminds the Herald of a story. In the first place, Bigelow’s charges for the past and future : amount to exactly $3,500, which is, curiously I enough, the sum that Mrs. Mason is known

to have saved. Now for the anecdote of Mr. Choate, the great Rufus Choate, of the Boston bar. One of his clerks performed a certain service for a client, and when Mr. Choate asked how much he had received as a fee, the reply was. “Two dollars.” “Two dollars!” exclaimed Choate; “why, that was not enough. Why didn’t you get more?” “I took every penny the man had,” was the meek answer. Then Choate ran his hands through his curly locks and said: “Young man, you did the best you could under the circumstances, and your conduct in the affair has been strictly professional.” A Brave Resolve. New York Times. The simple truth is that the Czar from the moment his carriage leaves the palace gates will be practically without any protection from his enemies. If they wish to kill him, they will be able to carry out their purpose. It is impossible to help respecting the bravery of the ma. who has resolve! to face almost certain death. His sole hope of safety lies in the possibility that the Nihilists may at the last moment relent, but we might as well expect to see a tiger relent and spare his prey as to look for mercy among tho.se worse than wild beasts, the Russian Nihilists.
