THE INDIANAPOLIS . JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 17, 1889. 1

Daring the President's absence, the White House is undergoing its usual Buniuier renovation. How the President Amawi Himself Deer Park, Md., July 16. -The President will leave to-morrow at, 10:19 a. m. for Washington. He will return on Saturday. The President was out on the lawn before Dreakf ast, and during his stroll about the grounds discovered several four -leaved clovers, which ho regards a lucky find. Secretary Windom went back to Washington this morning. The President accompanied him to the station. Before leaving he had a long conversation with the President, after which the Secretary said a number of federal appointments in the Treasury had been practically agreed upon, bnt they will Dot be announced before the President returns to the White House. On the train for which Secretary Windom was waiting were a number of religious excursionists, who, recognizing the President upon the platform, gave him several Salvation Army hymns, la the afternoon the President, accompanied by Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. Elkins, drove to Eagle Hock, where a magnificent view of four Ktates is afforded. In referring to Mr. Blaine's resignation, to-day, the President said that the attempt to create a sensation was necessarily a failure, because there was not the slightest foundation for the report. ENTITLED TO PIUYACT.

A. Separate Office Building Recommended for the Preildent's Uie Other Changes. Washington, Jnly Id Col. John Wilson, Commissioner of Publio Buildings and Grounds, in his annual report to the chief of engineers, recommends that an oftlc building be erected for the use of the President just west of the White House, and where the green-house and conservatory now stand. The latter, he says, might bo built on the ground east of the White House and between . it and the Treasury Building. It is believed, that the time has come when the chief magistrate of the country should no longer ho obliged to have his private residence and his office under the same roof. The President, the reportsays, i9 entitled to the same privacy in his Borne life as the humblest citizen. The suggestion is made that the conservatory to be erected might bo connected with the White House by a picture gallery opening out of the East Koom, and containing portraits of all the Presidents of the United States, and of the ladies who have assisted them in the social duties devolving upon the Presidents. These ideas are uubmitted with the hopo that Congress will take tho initiative, and at least pass a law inviting all the architects o fit he country to submit designs for buildings to be used for the purposes named. A prize, it is thought, should be given to the designer whose plan is accepted. It is recommended that the White House stables be removed from their present location to a Rite to be purchased on tho other side of Seventeenth street, and urthor aw ay from tho White House. - T MINOR MATT3RS. The Government Will Recognize No Com petitor In Purchasing the Cherokee Strip. Washington, July 1G. A recent dispatch from tho Indian Territory stated that the Cherokee Cattle Company have offered to lease tho lands of tho Cherokeo strip from the Indians for a term of years at a large rental. It further stated that it is probable that tho company will eventually buy the lands from the Indians. The commission recently appointed by the President to negotiate with the Indians fortbo purchase of these lands for the government, with a view of their being ultimately thrown open to public settlement, are about to begin their labors, and it is tho opinion of the Interior Department officials that these oilers, alleged to have been made by the cattlo company, are evidently intended to embarrass tho commission in its work. They believe that both the cattle company and many of the more intelligent Indians are perfectly aware of the paramount right of the United States to these lands, and that the Indians can neither sell nor lease them without the consent of the government. Secretary Noble was questioned as to the purpose of the government in the event of an attempted consummation of the proposed lease or sale, lie said he did not care to disenss the matter at present, but would say, however, that the government, would recognize no competitor for these or any other lands in which it had an interest. If the interests of private parties conflict with those of the government the former, he said, must certainly be put to one side. Indiana Pensions.

Mrs. Miller and Miss Jenness talked themselves hoarse persuading us to "strike" skirts and get into 'leglets?' Some of us, eager to progress, grabbed the chance to feel as much like untrammeled men as possible, and got into our "reform" togs at shortest notice. I never realized until the Jenness-Miller tidal wave why men were so overbearing. It's all because their legs are comfortable. Such freedom of movement, such ease of locomotion is calculated to make anybody feel as though he owned the earth. We women are slowly but surely getting a foothold, and wilf demand a snare of the globe before many moons. Still They Failed to Connect. Detroit Free Press.

MULDOON SCOEES SULLIVAN

He Says the Big Tugilist Has So Brains, and Is a "Thoroughpaced Loafer." Instances Showing the Brutal Disposition of ,the Man, and Bis Love for Liquor The Stakes Ordered raid Kilrain at Home. New Youk, July 16. If John L. Sullivan could be chained up where he would behave himself and kept so until he had reformed, he would he a great man for yearn and would havo many friends. Tho story of his behavior in Chicago, which was published yesterday, has turned many of his friends against him, and, unless he mends his ways, he will receive no welcome when he arrives here, except of the army of parasites which has always surrounded him when his star was in the ascendant. Billy Muldoon talked bitterly yesterday of Sullivan's conduct. "He is as thorough-paced a loafer," said Muldoon, "as I ever had anything to do with. All these stories about his great love for his parents and his generosity are the merest bosh. A more unappreciative fellow I never saw, andnow that it appears to be nseless to induce him to behave himself, the sooner the truth is told about him the better. Shortly after the fight the telegram from Sullivan's father arrived, and Johnston and I cleared the room of everybody, and then read the dispatch to tho big fellow. lie did not pay the slightest attention to it. His indifference so enraged Johnston that he told him he ought to be ashamed of himself. Tour poor old mother is Ivmc sick he said, 'and you don't seem to care a cent. Why can't yon be a man!' s "The matter with Sullivan is that he hasn't got any brains. After the right the propnetorof the Spanish Fort, a resort just out of New Orleans, s?.nt word to Sullivan that he would give him 51,500 if he would appear thero once and be introduced to the audience from the platform. Let him go to the devil,' was the response. The next day the proprietor called on Sullivan and oliered him the entire receipts of the place. guaranteeing him not less than $1,500. Sullivan declined this with as much brutality as the first, This will give you an idea of the business ability of the man. "Sullivan is nothing more than a brute. It was no small job to keep him from gratifying his animal nature before the light. He is a stubborn brute, and it is a mighty hard thing to compel him to do anything that he does not want to do. This talk about his being tempted to drink by his friends is bosh. He drinks in order to satisfy a craving for liauor. and not because ho is a good fellow." Mr. Muldoon was asked regarding his statement that Sullivan was in Canada. "That was made in good faith," he replied, "aDd if Sullivan had an ounce of sense or honor he would be there now. When I left him the address of a mau in Canada, near Detroit, was given him. and it was fullv understood that he would go directlv there. I assured him that he would be wefl taken care of. and that he could remain there and get thoroughly rested, and permit his hnnds to grow strong again. Ho promised faithfully to go. lie was to send mo a telegram as soon as ho arrived there. I have been waiting hero to get that tele gram, ana the hrst thing 1 hear is that he is acting the drunken loafer in Chicago. My interest in him ended when the snouge was thrown up last Monday, but I was still anxious to be a friend to him. Disinter ested friendship is something that Sullivan does not know anything about." Mr. Muldoon was asked concerning the stake money, and what share of it Sullivan would probablj' receive. "His share will probably be mighty small," was the reply, "unless he stops drinking, lie hasno right to a penny of it, but both Johnston and Wakely, I understan&were resolred to give him their share of it. under the circumstances the money might iust as well be thrown into the gutter. If it was given to him he would probably spend it in drinking saloons, etc. His backers intended to act generously toward him. but thev mav change their minds now. It is not likely that a very large amount of money will be given nun at once, out mat smau sums will be doled out to him at different times. "I did more for Sullivan than I would do for any other man in the world. I liked him, and believed that if he could be knocked into shape again he might behave uimsen. i eentmy ianiny away ana turned my home into training quarters, and labored hard with him. When he came to mo his stomach was so weak that it would retain only the lightest kind of food. There was a hole in his neck big enough to hold your list, and his llesh was as soft and flabby as a baby's. He looked like a man who would not live three months. I laid out between $30 and ?40 in fixing the place up to accommodate him and in other expenses exclusive of the household bills, etc. My butcher bill while he was there averaged $10 a week. I intended to accept nothing for these services, but'to tell Sullivan the only pay I wanted was'to see him behave Himself and act like a man who had some respect for himself. If his backers intend to surrender much money to him while he is making a beast of himself, I may as well put my bill in and get some of the money." Muldoon is pretty well tired out, and intends to spend a few days out of town. Arthur Lumley, one of Sullivan's backers, said it depended entirely upon the backers what amount of money the big fellow would receive. The entire stakes of $20,000 belongs to the three men who backed Sullivan, and it will be turned over to them in a few days. FiUpatrlck Orders Payment of the Stakes. New Orleans, July 16. John Fitzpatrick, referee of the Sullivan-Kilrain fight, to-day telegraphed to stakeholder Cridge, at New Y'ork, to pay over the money to the Sullivan party. Fitipatrick, Pat Duffy and others will go to Purvis and appear Thursday, and give bail for their appearance to answer at the November term of court, for aiding or abetting the recent prize-fight. Mr. Fitzpatrick states that the meeting, yesterday, at Jackson, between Governor Lowry and himself was of a cordial character, he being received in the most pleasant manner, and with tho kindest consideration. The Governor expressed himself as determined to bring all the offender to justice, sooner or later, and he congratulated Mr. Fitzpatrick on the good course and discretion displayed by him in thus surrendering into the hands of tho authorities of an offended State. Mr. Fitzpatrick says there is no doubt aa to Governor Lowry's earnestness in the matter, and he thinks the wiser and safer plan for all concerned would bo to follow his example, viz. : Surrender to the authorities of Mississippi, and thereby avoid all future annoyance and the complications which are apt to arise from the issuance of extradition papers, etc. Kilrain Returns Horn. liALTiMORE, Md., July 16.Jako Kilrain returned to llaltimore this afternoon. Ho left New York at 11 a. m., and came directly home with Johnny m Murphy, his faithful bottle-holder. He is stopping at Beach's restaurant, on North Howard street.
