McLaurin was being considered by the President for tlieappointment on the Court .-f! Claims there lias been much ^peculation over tho probablo attitude of his collcugue, Senator Tillman, on tho question of conlirnm-1 tion. As it would bo a departure probably without a precedent to oppose the confirmation of a I n-1 ited States Senator to an appointive oflico, many were of the opinion that the confirmation of the junior Senator f.iom the Palmetto State would go without saying. It seems, however, that those who share this view have underestimated the degree of ha- j tied which the senior Senator has | for his colleague, tor Mr. Till man has been hoard to say: "Mc-j Laurin is unlit to sit in judgment; over the interests of others and he ; will never bo appointed to ajudi i eiai position with my consent." j Senator McLaurin has not as vet! I I been formally tendered the judgeship in c|tiesti'jn I>111 the ['rest dent has tinully disposed of the matter, and it is known that the South Carolina Senator now lias | the appointment in so far us the , Chief Executive is concerned. Op- ( position from Tillman to his con-J tirmation will create an exceedingly interesting situation. Many intlucntial South Carolina politi j cians, friends of Tillman, would! favor continuation, as they desire! an appointment from the Governor to fill out the unexpired term. All of the half-dozen candidates covin the Held would he glad to have the place. ,, Volcanic Matter Drifted to Char- j leston by the Gulf Stream. i si Charleston, S. C., May 28.?
