Dan McSweeney Is here demanding that the present adminis tration appoint him collector of San Francis co. Dan was a resident of that city and went to Ireland where he was thrown in jail as a conspirator. This was during Garfield's Ad ministration. McSweeney appealed to this government tn recognize his rights as a citi zen , Secretary Blame investigated the mat ter and found he had forfeltf d his citizenship by selling all his property in America , and returning to Ireland and being elected one of the guardians of th : poor there. During the last presidential campaign the national democratic committee relmportod him from Ireland , and he went about the country making speeches against Blaine , claiming Blaine had basely deserted him in a foreign prison while he yet remained a citizen of the United States. He and Mr. Parnell were star attractions to prevent if possible the Irish stampede to Blaine , The democracy having been successful , he is hero for his pay. Ho says they promised him anything he wanted for his services , He has been looking around and concludes ho wants to be collector at San Francisco. Several genuine Californians - nians are hero well backed for the same place , but Dan says that It Is ridiculous for them to ask such a thing as long ai he is unprovided for. Thus far He has not met with much en couragement and he is beginning to think that the democratic party is going back on its pledge. He says that ho did more to beat Blalno than anybody else.

Senator ManJei son introduced a resolution In the sonata tc day for the purpose of getting in forma tie about Central American affairs. He think .ha United States bai some responsibility toward Nicaraugua which it ought not t shrink. The treaty lately negotiated , thoug yet unratlfied , he regards as still pending an it commits the United States in lome degrc to the protection of that state. Ihat treat ; it Is fair t ) presume , is tt immediate occasion for the effort < Barrios to annex Nicaragua to Guatemala and that being the case the United Stati should bar Barrios' attempted conquest. Thi Barrioi has been put up to hti imperi scheme by France , with a view to obstructic the projected Nicaraguan canal and thereby facilitating the completion of the 1'Aiivna canal , Is probable , and only increases the rea sons why the United States should not allow Barrios to succeed. Wo oupht , in Senator Manderson's judgment , to keep the way open for the Nicaraguan canal project , atleastuntil the project Is finally disposed of , At present it is pending In the senate on a motion to reconsider the vote rejecting It , Senator Mf\ctloreon _ does not desire any limneduta action on his roiolutlon. Ho wishes it to go to the foreign affairs committee to be thoroughly considered. It the administration should bo asked by the senate what it is going to do about ! Barrios It will answer in one word , "Nothing. " It was the Ute adminis tration that negotiated the trcatr , and under the late administration tt was rejected almost exclusively by votes of democratic senators. The present administration 13 NOT llKarONSIBLK for the treaty , and will not assume any re sponsibility tor it. It looks on the treaty as dead , and it will not try to revive it. The treaty will undoubtedly bo withdrawn , and will not bo ent into the letiato next Decem ber , as it has been reprerrnted that the ad ministration would do. There Is no jingo in this administration. KntAngHn ? foreign al liance ) will bo avoided. It is not Intended to Involve the United States abroad In any way or to make the United States guarantee tha sov erelgnty or Integrity of any foreign ststo. If Nic r.VHUa has got itself into trouble with its nnlghbors by negotiating a treaty with the VbTtod States that is her own lookout. If she had been afraid of Guatemala she might have declined to enter Into the treaty. She negotiated that treaty on her own lespcnil- bihty for her own advantage , and took her own chances. The United States Is now un der no more obligations to Nicaragua than to ban Salvador or Costa lUca. Barrios hat long cherished this scheme of consolidating all the Central American states under himself. The confederation of the Central American republics was a part of Mr. Blainn's hemispherical policy , and it did not take Barrios long to see various channels in > , which Mr. Blaine could bo useful to himself. He expected to get the help of ths United States in forcing all the Central American states to recognize him as their chief. The retirement of Mr. Blaine put an end for the time being to that dream. In 1882 Barrioi visited the United States , bin immediate errand being to get the help of this country in his boundary quarrel with Mexico , but he was also looking around to tea whether the late administration would not help him. He got little encouragement , but satisfied himself that if the United States would not interfere for him it would not Inter fere against him , and ho now thinks the moment auspicious for accomplithini ; his schemes ; of aggrandizement alone. Son Salva dor , which has now apparently submitted to him , ho made some throats to seize two years ago , when the then president left the country for the United States , and afterward went to Europe.

He was somewhat restless during the early part of the night and I could tell by hu occasional gulps that his tongue still pains him greatly.
