WASUINOTOH , March 19. Malcom H&y , o
Pittsburg , thu nominee for first assistant post' '
master-general , is a well known lawynr ol
prominence in the western part of Pennsyl
vanla , Ho was a iromberof the constitutional
convention of that state in 1873 , aud has th
reputation of being n man of sterling q-ialitlei
of mind , clear perception , ud uncommon firm
ness aud independence. The republican sena-
torsfromPenisylvania admit that the appoint
ment Is excellent , andthey believe he will be
likely to give satisfaction to the country. Mr.
Hay was acting chairman of the committee on
resolutions ! ! ; thaChicagd convention and chair
man of the subcommittee on th ) tariff p'ank.
It Is no tecrot tbat Congressman . L. Scott
and Mr. Handall decided the nomination oi
Mr , Hay , and that it was tuggested by lur.
Scott. It was remarked by prominent demo
cratic politicians that the president hai done
well to place the two most important posi
tions in the postofHco department in the
hands of the west and east , because any
southern men would have found the pressure
upon him eitlnr as postmaster general or
first assistant for wholesale decapitation of
southern postmasters too strong to bo ro-
nirted.
WILTON J. DURHAM ,
of Kentucky , managed his candidacy for the
office of first comptroller of the treasury with

to-day. He gave an interview to Rod Cloud ,

Randall , nnd by Dr. Bland , editor tf the
Council Fire , Rod Cloud's chief object waste
to demand a now agent. Ho made grievous
complaints of the present agent , McGilll-
cuddy , Ho said tint ho had wronged the In-
diani. nnd that they wished n change. The
president Bili that hi3 complaints should re
ceive attention , and that he would see that
Red Cloud had an agent who would help the
Indians In their effort to become civilized ,
As to the general Indian question , the
president stated that ho was not as well In
formed as ho desired to be , but that ha in
tended to make it the general policy of his
administration to civilize the Indian ? , to give
them their lands in severally , and to ulti
mately make them citizens. Ho did not be-
IIovo that they are at present far enough nd-
vancod to be made citizens. It was evident
from the conversation that the presidents
choice for Indian commissioner now lies bo-
twenn ex-Congressman Atkins , of Tennessee ,
nnd Col Mouoydcnny , who was ImH.in com
missioner under President Pierce. The pres
ident asked one question of a friend cf
Moneypenny's. It w i : "Is ho not to old ! "

Special to the Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON , March 18 C. S. Smith of
Bloomlngton , 111. , the colored independent ,
visited the president to-day , accompanied by
Bishop Oberly. Mr. Smith called to pay his
respects , that he would no longer bo n candi
date for the mission to Liberia , and to confer
with the president generally as to the relations
of the democratic party to the colored man.
Some of the questions which the
president asked wore not with
out significance. Ha Inquired what the effect
would bo upon the colored men if a white man
should bo' put in a posit'ou now held by a
colored man and a colored man put in a place
now ho d by n white man. The president's
thoughts seemed to bo upon the two important
po&itione in this district hold by colored men
- the register of the treasury by Mr. Bruce
and the rccordershlp of deeds by Fred
Douglass. The president said thut ho hoped
that the position of the colored man
in the south would be Improved
under his administration , and believed
that the signs of division among the colored
men in the north would be of advantage in
the south , where the vote would not always
bo along the color line He said that ho
time had come when ho thougnt It possible
that nil political distinctions between the
white and colored men as such should bo
abandoned , and he hoped that his adminis
tration would contribute to that end.

WASHINGTON , D. C. , March 18. The dit

nations made to-day. Democrats are gloom
to-night. They o-athor in little knot ) an
whisper to each other direful foreboding
The dlssatufacilon IB not confined toth
olliceseokora" . It might be expected that the
would construe personal disappointment t
, mem ruin for the party. But it is the me
of high standing In the party who feel moi
, downcast. Men who have bornq thn brunt <
democratic fights for a quarter of a century-
who have rallied the party o-ganizatl on BUI

A CLOSE conroiuTioN.
It is charged by democratic members
; congress that tha administration is nclo
corporation , doing everything secretly , ar
en ; that a few men , among whom are Randt
as and Scott of Pennsylvania , Hewitt of No
ire York , and Gorman ot Maryland , are runnlt
ve tilings to suit themiolvei , The most pron
.es nent democratic senators are ai rigi-'ly e
If eluded from the confidence of the ndminl
tn tration as they over were under republic ;
nd rule. They are pleasantly received I
an- the president and their advice attentive
anhe listened to , ttad then tbo very thing they i
he not advlio is "done. Leading Democrats a
lie complaining that states which have be. .
rt- steadily deuiociatic are passed by. while i
publican states get the patronage. It Is
common thing for democratia senttoi >
when aiked about something relating to t !
administration and Its purposes , to Bay frin

Of THK KENTUCXIANS yiOUIINO MAD.

ied to one of opposition , To lay that the Ke

is prew their Indignation , Mr. Durham , w
ipwai nominated to-day for first _ controller

A nomination to tha forty-ilxtb coogresi. a
held the teat through the Forty-seventh nnd
Forty-eighth. Durham was not bickcd by
piltylcadirs of his own itate In making ap
plication for the first controlcrshlp , but ho
got what ia shown to be far more potent with
this administration the indorsements of A.
S. Hewitt and Samuel J. Randall. Finally ,
to-dny , v.-hen Sonrttoo Beck was advitod that
Durham was to bo appointed , ho contented to
Indorse his application , say ing at the time It
was most _ unwillingly done. It is the
common opinion among Kentnckians that
Durham was chosen in order to finally kill off
Phil Thompson , as , of course , two insn from
the tame congressional district cannot bo very
well given high places , Thompson was bickcd
by all his friends for railroad commissioner ,
and the motive of the administration in thus
pushing him aside Is construed by eomo ns nn
unwillingness to offend the corporations by
putting n man with Thompson's record at the
head of the railroad bureau ,
RKVKNUK-RKFOIUIKI13 DISCOCIUQKD ,
The nomination of Malcom liny , a pro
nounced [ protectionist , for the first assistant
pastmnstor-general is regarded by the reve
nue-reformers as another straw showing that
they will get neither countenance nor support
from the administration. It is said to-night
by the democrats tbat notwithstanding-
president's declaration that appointments
should bo made by the heads of departments
respectively , he has porsonallyand _ plainly in-
dicatrd whom ho wanted put in the places so
far filled. It Is said tlia : tha president's will
Is the oil-controlling lower and directs every
thing.
GORMAN ROUNDLY ABUSED.
Among the democratic senators. Got man
comes in for a good share of abuse. Few of
his party associates have a good word for him.
Their criticisms nre no longer whlspsred ,
They are spoken out _ Some of the ocmo-
cratic senators , in seeking to obtain appoint
ments for their constituents , have discovered
that the wily hand of Gorman was working
against them. They eny ho 1ms hunted
through all the departments , nnd has tricked
out places fit for henchmen. Some of the
democratic * senators predict that If tha presi
dent permits himself to bo Influenced by Gor
man nothing but evil can result. He is
charged with being a scheming politician ,
seeking hU own ends In a sly , underhanded
way ,
THE DEMOCRATIC BTATES OETTINa HEADT TO
KICK.
Unices the president very soon turns his
attention to some of the democratic states
like Missouri , Indiana and Virginia ho will
piobably hear some plain talk from leaders of
his paity , Some oftho _ latter nro saying that
they will not remain client nnd see their
party destroyed ; that nn open rupture now is
bettor than to lot the undermining process go
on quietly for four years. There nro promin
ent democrats who , like ex-Senator KUoa
still hope that things will come right. They
hope that the President will yet get in fall
accord with his party , but the general fooling
IB one of positive apprehension.
THE HAND OF BAM RANDALL ,
Nothing has happened since the 4th of
March to so disturb the place hunters whi nre
hare ns the fact that out of the long list of
names which were supported by such strong
congressional nnd other political indorsements
none was chosen tor either of those three im
portant bureau places. Some are disposed to
trace the hand of Mr. Randall in two of these
appointments , ns they were In tbe matter of
the appointment of Mr. Miller , as commis
sioner of internal revenue. Malcolm Hay is
Mr. Randall' * personal and political friend ,
and has been nil his life. It is also true
that Mr. Durham , when IB congresa ,
was allied to Mr. Randall's fortunes in tl.o
spoakorsbip campaigns , and that the latter
appointed him a member of the appropria
tions committee and gave him a chairmanship
bolides. Durham is a lawyer and as chair
man of the committee to investigate expendi
tures in the department of justice attempted
several reforms. Thn plan to substitute tbo
system of fixed salaries for fees for marshals
and otbor officers of federal , courts was first
gently pressed by Mr. Durham. When in
congress he was popular with both patties ,
and was noted for his earnestness nnd his
blunt , plain ways. Ho is a fair speaker. In
personal appearance he is tall , smooth-faced
unpnlar. somewhat awkward , and of the
large Kentucky type. He is sixty years
of ago.
THE NEW FIRJT-ASSISTANT POBTMASTER-OEN-
KRAL.
Malcolm Hay , who is chosen for first-assist
ant postmaster-general , la a familiar figure to
those who attended the democratic national
convention nt Chicago last July. Ho was
chairman of the Pennsylvania delegation , and
subsequently acting chairman of the committee
on resolutions. He became practically chair
; man of the latter committee to bridge the dif
; ferences on the tariff which existed between
< Morrison and Converse. Mr. Hay attracted
attention while in the performance of hii
duties upon the committee on resolutions , and
was one of tha notable men of the convention
as he perhaps would bo called the handsomest
man in It. Mr. Hay is n successful lawyer ol
' Pittsburg in good practice. He has long beci
actively Identified with the democratic party
and has made two unsuccessful cinvosae.
tor the nomination for governor. He was
member of the two last democratic noini
listing conventions , and In both instance
was a member of the committee on lesolu
tions. He is ntout 45years of sge , a Presbyterian
torian and n devoted friend and adherent o
Mr. Randall. Mr. Hay Is an experienced poll
tlcian and an exceptionally bright and quick
wilted man. His position on tuociyal servjc
* is not known , but , as the oilicer charged wit
the practical control nf all thenon-prosldontlt
postoflicoo , he undoubtedly will eee toll tha
the democratic party receives no detriment
Ha was thrown into intimate relations wit
Col. Vila ? nt the democratic convention.

Ho succeeds the late Chief James Reuben.
The selection of n young now chief lay

The Abrogation oifPolygamy.
SALT LAKE , Utah , March 19. The Desert
News , the Mormon church organ , breaks the
silence to-night for the first time , on n rumor
of coming abrogation of polygamy at the
spring conference. The paper argues against
such action , and does not absolutely deny the
rumor , admitting that a portion of the church
favors the stop. The long editorial closes as
follows : "Members of the church who fool
and talk favorably for abrogation of the doc-
torinoal points are the reverse of strong.
They probably belong to a class who bnllovc
in the fullness of the gospel as restored
through Joseph Smith , and almost wish they
didn't , or , at least , that It was not true.
They would like to do the will of God , pro
viding it was strictly in accordance with their
own. They doiro to adhere to the church because -
cause they cnnnot rid themselves of the con
viction that it is tha power of God unto sal
vation , but they would like its doctrines and
ways more in conformity with the ways of the
world , that very species of friction which
causes discomfort and a temporal disadvan.
tage might bo avoided. In fact they are conservative
servativo Mormons , nnothar term for men ,
who If the church nf Christ wore mnnipulatet
by them , would doubtless adopt a policy of
giving up religions rights piecemeal unti
every distinguishing feature between the
saints nnd the world would disappear , ant
they would bo loved all over the earth , because
cause they would ko swallowed up by tbi
woili ) , and the world loves it ) own. It wouli
result in another universal apostacy , ihnila :
to that which took place shortly subeequen
to the time of Christ's earthly mission , Bu
coming back to the starting point , all untie !
pations and predictions regarding the reception
tion of rovalations to the church are necessa
i rily premature , The faithful , who seek t
know the will of God will not bo shaken o
purpose , neither will they abandon their rell
gloua principles in wholoor In part , under an :
kind pf apprcheniion whatever. They would
hold to their integrity , in the full exoectation
of sooner or later , beholding the salvation of
God. "
