In Southern Ohio, on the train, the Vice Presidential party, at this writing, continue in excellent epirits. The journey through Indiana was a continuous ovation. At Shelbyv.lle, Fairland, Greensburg and other place, large crowds were gathered with bands ol music, firing cf anvils and much enthusiasm was manifested. Mr. Hendricks responded happily at each stop and was subjected to the usual ordeal of handshaking, which he bore with smiling grace. At Cincinnati several relatiTea and friends joined the parfy, amcng them Mr?. V, B. Leach, of St. Loui3, a cousin of Mrs. Hendricks. The Indiana part of the Vice President' party, as cow constituted, consist of the following: Attorney General Hord, Judge Rand, Colonel Byfield, Henry D. Pierce, M. V. Carr, Hughes East, G. W.

HOOSIER OFFICE SEEKERS. Ü peculations Kegardias l'o.ltlous Who Will CUt Tlieiu. Spoöal to the Sentinel. Wasiiisutox, Feb. 20. To-night's Critic says: "Indiana will have a number of applicants for prominent Federal positions," said a Hoosier member to a Critic reporter to day. "Should ex-Senator McDonald not go into the Cabinet," continued he, "she will hare a good many more than otherwise. It is fixed up that a Public Trintership will be striven for by an Indianian, and I could name If I chose, a well-known Hoosier politician who will make a demand for one of the Assistant Secretaryships, possibly that of the Treasury. Leading Democrats of the State say they will have the Comrnissionership of Pensions sure. They say the Republicans of that State have enjoyed the influence of the Pension Office during the Presidential campaign, and Democrats must have it. haye information that Dr. Milton James of Muncie, will either ome here in person, or tome cf hid friends will, within a few days, and stay the thing out. I think Dr. Jame3 will get it. He is indorsed by the entire leadership of his party in Indiana, and has the very hearty approval ol Vice President Hendricks. The orlica will be til ed by a Democrat within a very snort tims, and if there is anything in signs Dr. James, of Indiana, will be the Democrat. A half a dozen prominent foreign missions are being figur- i on by Iloosier Democrats." What a gchool-Itoy Frleud of Clevelai. 1 Sy. Special to the Sentinel. "Washington, Feb. 2 One of Presidentelect Cleveland's old school-boy friends has just returned here from Albany, where he had a long free ami easy talk witn the coming man, "What do you think cf him now?" I asked, "Jest what I ha?e been thinking for a good many month, that he will make a satisfactory Treeident." "What did yen talk about?'1 ' Old times, mostly. The most current Issue discussed was that of political spoil?. Mr, Cleveland remarked about the Üzod of letters he was receiving, and the great desire evinced t3 hold cilice. I asked him what he was going to do, anyway, about rilling the offices. He answered qaickly: 'I shall adhere to the strict letter and spirit of the civil service law. It is right, and will please the masses best.1 " "You don't believe he will 'turn the ra3cls out.' then." 14 Yes, be will, but he will be m:derate about it. Those holding offices with terms attached will be allowed to serve out their terms If they are good efficers, and those filling positions without terms and not under civil service will be dropped out for better men, but gradually, to t3 not to Impair the service. Those under civil service protection will not be disturbed. He eo expressed himself, and that is the character of the man as I know it." nnll on thft Prospect of an FitM StMlon. FrtcJal to tfce Sentinel. "Washington, Feb. :'.. "Whatever you may hear don't you pursuade yourself yet that ttat there is gclng to be an extra ees

sion of Congress," said Mr. Randall to day, "for I can not cee anything that looks like it, and I believe I am in possession of most of the information on the subject. There has always been this rush of work and talk about an extra session at this stage of a Congress, and we have avoided it." There are very few now who anticipate an extra session, and these who express such belief are generally moved by a desire. Of course, a few members or Senators can band together and have an extra session; that would be an easy matter; but it is not likely that eny one will be eo reckless as to do that.

DUDLEY'S EX A III X A T 1 U X. Seme Intereatlng Colloquy Take I'lte Daring the Ex-Commlxsioaer of Pensions' Kxamlnation. Washington, Feb.

Thp witness knew nothing of the kind, and if Le had known it he would have de nounced it. General Warner asked if the lists of claimants in the Pension Office were not furnished in order that political work might ba carried on? Witnesi replied, that if that was the case, they w-.re furnished by General Warner and otl -rs engaged in political work. "Myse). :d ethers had no acce33 to the records." i d tl Chairman.

Warner There is dit'arenca bewe?n ciaimantä and pensioners. Nobody has a right to it. Witness Well, nobody has been famished any such list from my office. I indignantly deny it, and I very much regret you should ask me such a question, for you oubt to know me. You know it w&seo, becausa you wrote me a letter to that eilect, and I answered, telling you it was not sj. Warner I think I had no such correspondcL.ce with you. V'itDe: You wrote mo a letter saving that the j. ension office waj bein usei against you. WarcerCaa you produce a letter to that eilect7 I demand the lotter. I wrote you a letter protesting against any contracts. Witness No, sir; you wrote ma a letter CKainst the pension cilica being used to jour detriment, and I wrote you it was lot so. Warner I wrote you respecting a epecial pension case. Witness I will ask you noW, aa I h.ve a right to protect myself, if you did not? Warner Bring the letter, bring tüe letter. Hert (Ianchin;;ly) Answer tha question. General Warner I am not on the witness Etand. Hart Well, you may ba before this is cer. I would like to aik some questions. Warner I would have testified to some things that would not plefw? yon. Hart I would be happy to have you to go on just twenty minutes. General Warner (to witness)-How did you sign the letter addres3ed to me? Witness 1 think I sigDed it personally. I am not sure, but you have the letter, you can sew. Wftrner I think you signed it as Commi.sior:er. Witness I think I did not. Mr. Hogers questioned the witnejs as to the leDsrtn of his absence from the office, to which Dudley replied: "Fifty-seven days." WTitnc?s further stated that he had drawn his pay during the thus of his absence. The roles which governed subordinates abut leaves were not applicable to heads of bureaus. He added that be wai not conscious of having neglected his duties, and that his attention to his official duties while in Washington consumed twelve hours a day, which was nearly double the time reqaired of the clerks. Rogers I want to ask you if you think it had a very healthy influence on your br.reau for it to all over tbe country; that ?: had quitted his pot and cone into the cauiitry and to stay the length of time you sUt-, looking after his party's political interest?. Witness Yon a?k lor my opinion? Itrgers Yes, sir. Witness In my judgment it should bav no deleterious iniluence upon the office, un lffs It were understood I was acting as Cjco missioner ai the same time. Rogers tailed witness' attention toacir rul.ir issued by him, a Conimijsioa- o Pensions, In which the clerks of the offie are cautioned in string terms against th misuEe of their hours of duties, lioer asked witness' opinion of the principles o? the circular as applied to his own case. Witness thought he cme within the ex cejtions noted in tho circu'ar. He bad se? 8n example when on duty of working not six and a half hours a day but twelve hours a day. Rogers Do you mean when you were abeent? A,-N'o, sir; in the effica. i I am asking with reference to your atsence. A. I think I worked eighteen hours a day when I was absent. Hogers asked: Why, if you could tat nfty seven days with pay, could you not take tbe whole A. Well, that Is a question in ethicj I C3n not answer. Doners Well, I can't either. Witness declared he thought it not discreditable to any rxau to be faithful to his party allegience. He would not abridge any lean's right to Influence results so long as he did not neglect his duties or consume time for which he wa3 paid by tho Government. General Warner questioned witness as to the reason why nine special examiners were sent into h:s( Warner's) district, while only oce was required m neighboring districts, and why the force of exarainers in Ohio was increased from sixty to 101 just before tbe election. Witness rerdied if such was the case, and he did not know it we s, the reason would be found in the necessities of tbe office. The witness was unable to state how many special examiners wtre Republicans and how many Democrats. He did not believe any one knew the politics of half of the examiners. They bad been appointed under civil Eervice rule. Durirg the subsequent colloquy the fact
