IIOW THE WHEELS CO BOUND." Commissioner Tanner Shows a Correspond-. ent How Appointment Are Made. Special to tho Indian spoils Journal. Washington, Aug. 8. One of tho reasons why Commissioner Tanner is so obnoxious to tho mugwumps is that he has a' direct, straightforward way about doing business. lie does not make it necessaryto prove "offensive partisanship" in order to secure the removal of an incompetent. Ban or of one who is appointed by the last administration after the cold slaughter of n efficient Republican. A sample of Mr. Tanner's method was given yesterday, when a newspaper man called on him, and the Commissioner asked "if he wanted to see the wheels go round." He replied that he did. Mr. Tanner called his stenographer over to him and dictated a letter to the Secretary of the Interior, in which he recommended the dismissal of Capt. William Smith, principal examiner, nnd the appointment in his place of Mr. Christian hxclj, of Minnesota. Exell had been the chief of this same division, and was removed on two weeks' notice tinder Mr. Black. Mr. Tanner suggested that Smith be given two weeks' notice in the same way, and tdat Mr. Exell's appointment take effect at the expiration of this period. The appointment will probably be made tomorrow. MINOR MATTERS. A New Cattle Pest of Kecent Discovery IIqw to Kemedjr and Prevent It. WASHINGTON', Aug. S. Last summer a new pest was reported in cattle in New Jersey. Delaware. Maryland and northern Virginia. The pest has again made its appearance this summer. It is a small fly, half the size of a house-lly, which settles in great numbers around the baso of the horns and on other portions of the body where it can't be reached by either tail or head. It sucks a moderate amount of blood, reduces the condition of tho cattle and lessens the y ield of milk bv from one-third to one-half. 1'his new pest has been investigated by the Department of Agriculture, through the aetmg entomologist, L. O. Howard, who has succeeded in tracing the entire life history of the pest, and suggests as a preventive to lime the dnng in the fall in plates where the cattlo preferably stand at night. At the present time applications may be made to milch cows and valuable animals which will keep the Hies away. Ihe applications may be: (1) Fish oil and Sine tar. with a little sulphur; (2) tobacco ust. when the skin is not broken; (3) tallow and a small amount of carbolic acid. Clarkson's Telegram. Washington Special. Acting Postmaster-general Clarkson left orders with the Western Union and postal people here some time ago that ho was never to bo disturbed by the delivery of a telegram after 10 o'clock in the evening.

This morning, a little after 1 o'clock .the door-bell at Mr. Clarkson's house, at 1J1. K

street was nulled violently, and the acting Postmaster-general was awakened out of a sound sleep. His chamber is lust over tho frontdoor. He poked his head out of tho window and inquired what was wanted. The messenger boy said he had a very important telegram that he had been strictly ordered to deliver. . . , , 1 don't want to see it," cried Mr. Clarkson. 'Take it back to the office. 1 gave them orders not to delirer any message to me after 10 o'clock. "The boss told me to give it to you sure, the boy persisted. So the acting Postmaster-general was literally called down. He came to the front door in his sleeping clothes and read the message. It was dated Philadelphia, and was signed with the names of Chairman Quay, Secretary Fassett and Samuel Fessenden, Garret Hobart and Colonel Goodloe, all of the national committee, and said that if Mr. Clarkson did not join them by 10 o'clock the next morning for their cruise in Hamilton Disaton'a, yacht ho would be deposed from his position as vice-chairman. The First Assistant Postmaster-general laughed, dismissed the boy and went to bed again not a bit alarmed. Lies About Dadley Nailed. Special to the Indianayolis Journal. Washington, Aug. 8.

S. Odell,of tho Department of the Potomac, Grand Army of the Republic, in speaking of the matter to-night, said; "Colonel Dudley will go to Milwaukee as the gnest of the Department of the Potomac.

THINKS ITS TA SCOTT, SURE. The Young ilan Arrested at Laredo, Tex., the ilost Hopeful "Suspect" Yet Chicago, Aug. 8. A special from Laredo, Tex., received here this evening, gives a de scription of theTascott 6uspcct under arrest there, tallying more closely .with that of the'much-6ought fugitive than has been the casp in any previous capture. According to details, mentioned at length, the prisoner's appearance corresponds exactly with the description contained in the reward circular issued by the relatives of Snell, the millionaire, for whose murder Tascott is under indictment. The scars on Tascott'a elbows and legs have counterparts upon the Laredo man, and, though there is no gold in the prisoner's front teeth, a cavity which had once been filled is there. The arrest was the outgrowth of a singular accident. Night before last, about 8 o'clock, a young man knocked at tho door of Sheriu Sanchez's residence, and asked for supper, which was provided for him in the hall. Mr. Sanchez noticed something peculiar about his face which suggested the description of Tascott. He went upstairs to get the description, and, while absent, the servant was asked who lived at the house, and when the man was informed that it was the sherifi he at once departed. The sheriff hurriedly took the direction the young man went, and soon overtook him and engaged in conversation with him, and became convinced that tho man corresponded in appearance with tho murderer of banker Snell. The man was taken to the eheriirs ofticejr where a close examination was made, arid tho sheriff was satisfied that he had the right man and locked him up. Different names were given by the prisoner, but he finally settled on that of A. O. Delphine, of Concordia, Kan., where he claims to have been at work as a fireman on tho night of the murder of banker Snell, in Chicago. Ho has been loafing around in Mexico for about two weeks, most of the time with railroad men, two of whom came to see him this morning and called him "Newt," by which name alone ho was known among them. There is a f ac-similo of Tascott'a hand-writing attached to tho circular referred to, consisting of four lines of aletter.ihefirst line reading, "What's the use of our rushing." Sherilt Sanchez copied these words jon a piece of paper, with the exception that ho wrote them: "What is the use," and asked bis prisoner to copy them. The fellow did so fn a disguised hand, and mechanically wrote the contraction "what's" as it was in the facsimile writing. He stated positively that ho was never in Chicago; yet the two men who have been with him in New Laredo say he has frequently talked with them about Chieago, and displayed a thorough knowledge of the place. Sheriff Sanchez has forwarded a photograph of the prisoner to the Chicago police, and to-day was awaiung xuo rcsuii. BUSINESS EMBARRASSMENTS.
