WECHSLER'S SONS, CSTBfi cPfurniture BARGAINS lyn: "I am permanently out of politics audi am entirely occupied with my work as a banker and as chairman of the executive council of the American Bankers' asaocla appears to think more of this Important office than of the mayoralty of Brooklyn or any other public office. He said he was heartily in accord with the President's financial policy and believed that Mr. Cleveland had rendered perhaps his niost important public service in giving a clear tone to public thought about the great value of a stable standard of value. Feeling this way Mr. Hendrix is naturally disgusted with the lameness of Democratic leadership in congress and referring to it he said emphatically: "The Democrats are being beaten right along because they see no further than the tips of their own noses.

They are thinking one way; the people are going the other." Naval Constructor Francis T. Bowles, who has charge of the construction and repair department at the Brooklyn navy yard to day recommended to Secretary Herbert that a change be made in the positions of master shlpiltter, Inside master painter, master shipwright and master shlpsmith In the bureau over which he has control. Mr. Bnwles gave as his reason for desiring this change that the mrn n'lamg these p'sfti ns had nelti thL. force nor the mechanical ability to cenduct the w.

rk and carry on tbe details satisfactorily and that the interests of the service required men of more general capacity. Secretary Herbert, upon the receipt of this communication, which was approved by the commandant, declared the positions vacant and a competitive examinatif will be held at the Brooklyn navy yard on the ISth of this mcnth, which will be open to all comers for the purpose of securing a foreman who will demonstrate to the examining beard that they are able to fill the positions satisfactorily. The navy department states that polities plays no part in these changes, but that the men were dismissed on purely business principles. The men who are dismissed are: Thomas E. Crossley, master ship fitter, salary, per day; Jacob F.

Mynich, master ship painter, $5 per day, William Kerrigan, marter shipwright, $5.50 per day, and John Lynch, master shipsmith, S6 per day. The new congressional directory Just published, contains some gens of personal description. This is what Congressman Henry' Clay Miner modestly has to say concerning himself: "I was born in. New York city March 23. 1S 42; was educated at the New York city grammar schools and at the American Institute school; studied the drug business and have been more or less engaged in that business ever since; in 1S84 went out in advance of Signor Blitz, the magician and bird tamer; my next engagement was with Thayer Noyes' circus and eventually became the head of a metropolitan theater and then arose to the proprietorship of five popular Thespian resorts the Fifth avenue theater, the People's, Miner's Bowery, Eighth avenue and Miner's Newark theater beside theatrical Interests I take a hand in directing the destinies of several great enterprises in which a portion of my capital is invested; am president of the Springer Lithographic company; own extensive phosphate Interests In the South; hold large blocks of railway.

and mining stock in Western corporations and direct a New York newspaper syndicate and am the owner of a large drug store and photographic material house in New York am also the compiler and publisher of an American dramatic directory, a standard work for managers, agents and companies in the amusement world." Miner, however, forgot to mention one incident of "lis early career, that in a recent conversation be recalled to the correspondent of the Eagle. It is that at one time he was a patrolman on the Brooklyn police force. One of the richest pieces of personal laudation In the new directory is the sketch given of himself by Rowland B)ennerhassett Ma hany of Buffalo. The Long Island men are singula Iy modest and circumspect in what they have to say about themselves. Francis Henry Wilson has more space In the directory than any of the other Brooklyn congressmen.

He nJentions In his notice that he took a prominent part In the organization of the Union League club of Brooklyn and was president of it for four successive years. Assistant Secretary of the Navy McAdoo today sent communications to the commandants at the various navy yards, directing that all work now In progress on vessels belonging to the North Atlantic squadron be pushed as rapidly as possible. The object of this order IS to have these ships ready for sea on the 14th of December, when" Admiral Bunce, who has command of this station, will, be directed to proceed with his fleet to the West Indies for fall and winter maneuvers. The vessels belonging to this squadron and. their present location are as follows: New York, Brooklyn navy yard; Columbia.

Hampton roads: Raleigh, Norfolk; Montgomery, Norfolk, and the Cincinnati at Key Wost. It is the intention of the navy department to keep the squadron together all the" "winter, if "possible, in order that the new fleet tactics be given a thorough trial, and that the (MmmaxTders of the various vessels be given some "work in maneuvering. As the summer movements ended disastrously and resulted in practically no benefit to tho service. Secretary Herbert will make a strong effort to keep the present squadron intact. The fleet will probably assemble at Hampton roads, and then gradually move south to the West Indies.

Bids were oponed to day in the office of the second assistant postmaster general for carrying the government malls on all star and steamboat routes In the states of North Carolina, S' uth Carolina. Gecrgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee for the contract term of four years, beginning July 1, 1896. There will be about 5,000 contracts awarded, involving a trifle over $1,000,000. Competition for securing these contracts is very keen and the post office department received more than 125,000 proposals in answer to its advertisements. Current work in this office has been suspended and an extra force of clerks employed in opening and registering the bids.

It will be several months before the results are announced, as the large number of bids Teceived will entail a great amount of comparing and calculation. General Neilson was to day the recipient of a rather curious present from a little girl in Baltimore. A large box, addressed to the second assistant postmaster general, was delivered to him and, on opening it, he found a wax doll about 12 inches in height. The clothes of the doll, which are in the latest style, wit large puff sleeves, are made i entirely trcm canceled postage stamps and ex hibit much ingenuity and skill on the part of 1 the modiste. On tho front the dress is the I United States shield and eagle, formed from i stamps of various denominations, and a I crown, made from Columbian stamps, rests on Its bead.

General Neilscm placed the elft I in a prominent place on his desk, where it greets ail visitors. "ODIt REGIMENT" IN SCHOOL. PLAYED BY YOUNG PEOPLE OF ST. MATTHEW'S CHURCH. A bovy of brlpnt.

The Meeting Place of the Delegates for 1896 Will Probanly Be Decided Upon. Next Week Pittsburg Seems to Have the Call Urging the Claims of San Francisco and St. Louis lor tho Big Gathering. (Special to the Eagle.) Washington, D. C.

December 5 As congress has started in to carry out a do nothing policy, at any rate until after the holidays, and as the with the exception a half hearted atter. to reorganize and the dropping of a lot of. unimportant bills into the legislative hopper, is quiescent, the most interesting and all important question oE the hour at the capital is the approaching meeting of the Republican national committee that takes place in this city on Tuesday of next week. Already the advance guard of skirmishers belonging to the big army boomers that will arrive here later is on hand. Pittsburg, St.

Louis, Now York and Sail 'rancisco have representatives now on the field, and rooms have been engaged at one of the principal hotels for the Pittsburg contingent that will arrive in force the last of the week. New York has also engaged a handsome suite of rooms at the same hotel, and proposes this Jiine to make an earnest, systematic and patriotic attempt to Induce the Republican committee to select the metropolis as the place for holding the next national convention the party. Ex Senator Thomas C. t'lau wm uu here early in the week and will take an active band in the fight. Nothing has as yet been heard from St.

Louis or Chicago with regard to taking apartments for the delegations from those two cities, but it is well known hert; that in each city a committee or delegation has been named to present the claims of these two rivals. From letters and telegrams received, it is quite evident that most of the members of the national committee who are not already in Washington wili arrive two or three days prior to the meeting, and it is also understood that most of the delegations will be on band by Saturday next at "the latest, including the formidable one from far oil San Francisco. The people out on the Pacific slcpe will make a desperate effort to induce the national committeemen to locate tho convention in sight of the Golden Gate. Practical politicians, however, with whom the correspondent of the Eagle has conversed, do not take kindly to the Idea of traveling: to Sau Francisco. The same old objection that it is too far off is heard on all sides.

Pittsburg seems at this writing to have the call. In addition to the offers from the Smoky City to put up a big sum of money to pay the expenses of the committee, an effort is being made to win votes for this city through sentiment. It is said by those who favor it that the Republican party had its birth place there, and that it would be the proper thing In this year of our Lord 1S95, just forty years since the first Republican convention was held, to hold another in Pittsburg. The New Yorkers are this time really desirous to secure the convention. They say that ft will stimulate the party in that state and Governor Morion's friends hint that it will be a great thing for the banker ruler of th Empire state if the convention comes to New York.

They also point to the well known fact that the metropolis has more and better hotels than any city In the United States and that the Madis Square garden Is the finest hall on earth to accommodate the delegates, alternates and visitors. It is expected that the New Yorkers will bring th eir best orators with them, as they did at the time of the memorable fight for the last national convention. J. Sloat Fassett, Warner Miller. Chauncey Depe and ex Senator Frank Hiscock will all be given a chance to speak in behalf of the great city of the Empire state.

It is conceded, however, in advance that New York will be bitterly opposed by friends of the Western candidates and in order not to give Reed and Morton any advantage the denizens of the Mississippi vallev claim that neither New York nor Pittsburg staDds as good a chance as St. Louis cr Chicago. Many of the politicians now in Washington, who pin their faith in the grand old party, say that as Missouri went Republican last year on tbe congressional and legislative tickets it will be a fine stroke of policy to have the convention in St. Louis next year. The friends of this, healthy rival of Chicago have been working that point for all it is worth, and R.

C. Kerens, the Missouri member of the nat'onal committee, is doing yoeman service for the cause pi St Louis. He has several pulls, which; It is said, may enable him to obtain votes for St Louis where least expected. Chicago has had more of the conventions in the past thirty years than any other city, while St Louis has had but two of the national conventions since the civil war, unless General Jonn B. Henderson's "tea party" In 18S0 can be called a convention.

This was the gathering thatr so vigorously protested against the nomination of General Grant for a third term. io2ohe Demcratlc conventions 1876 "'and of 1SS8 yere i held. In St. Louis, and the friends or this city can now" point to the fact that slncatiis time her hotel facilities have been greatly Increased. One thing is certain, the fight for the convention Is going to be a merry one.

and by tne end of this week developments will be such that some Idea of the probable final action of the committee can be formed. For years past the national Democratic committee has been holding its meetings. for fixing th time and place for their national convention on February 22. Washington's birthday, but leading Democrats are now talking of an wlrr iD JanuaT, and Chairman as been urged to stlr Mm lf issue the call for this earlier date. That committee will also hold its meeting in this cltv executive committee of the Democratic national committee has already engaged rooms for the meeting when it take Jwi wf to be the opinion tnat the Republican convention will be called uit ranj june.

and if that Is done the campaign will be about the same length as ITa SSS' 1r durlnK the Cleveland administration, Democrats had their convention in advance of the Republicans but for years they followed the Republicans. Leading Democrats say that, in their judgment. It will be better this year for the Democrats to hold off until the Republicans Dave made their nominations. But little stock is taken here In the talk of cutting down the representation of tho Southern euues in the next Republican convention, and the chances are that the number of delegates from that section will remain just as it haa been. The Southern Republicans are bitterly opposing the cutting down of their delegation i I "oiild seem from surface indications' that thpv win have strength enough to defeat any such motion in the committee.

The Republican national committee is composed of the following members: Chairman. Thomas H. Carter, Helena, Mont secretary, Joseph H. Manley. Maine, and treasurer, Cornelius N.
