Chicago, 28. Tbe Tribune's Washington Wash-ington cor respondent hud an inter eating interview last night with Secretary Secre-tary Evartij, wbo, although carefully observant of the proprieties of his position, gave an insight into cabinet ui altera as regards Conk ling. He thought the object of the stories now current regarding him was to effect results, not to deaenbe actual events. Tbey were started by high flying politicians whone attemps at politics will benefit neither the country nor tbe facts. Newupuper correspondents do not have tbe facts; they assume to Btate, at leuBl from him. Answering Answer-ing the correspundent'e questions, be said there was no difficulty in the least between biui and Conk ling; that he bad no pereounl ill-will againBt Conkling. There can be no political diflereucea belweeu them. He wus as good a republican uud as consistent as Butler, and an older one than Conk ling; be whs a republican iu the lull Be nee of the term. He could not see why Conkling had any dislike dis-like for uim, and only knew so through newspaper reports on which he did not place tbe utmost reliance. He had made no overtures for recon-, ciliation and regarded none necea sary There was no such condition ol affairs as to make a reconciliation or surrender necessary. He would neither conciliate nor yield. There was nothing ol national importance in this matter. The division between Conkling and tbe admiuiatration had made no division in tbe cabinet, which was not in the' slightest disturbed dis-turbed over the aMair. No attention had been paid (o that trouble. Secretary Evarts refused to talk on the question of bis relations with Schurz and tbe rumors of his unloading unload-ing tbe responsibility of New York nominations on tho secretary of the interior. He could see no reason or contingency at present which would call for bis resignation. Everythiog was perfectly harmonious iu the cabinet cabi-net and with the president, but he was li:e tbe Connecticut fanner's it too e wall, four leet high and live broad, eo that if it lell iiver it would be higher than before. If he resigned an $8,000 salary he would go back to a $40,000 practice. Q. Are the relations between your-sell your-sell and Secretary Shurz pleasant? A. Tbe relations between all the cabinet officers are of the most pleasant pleas-ant character. I have never said a word to Secretary Schurz on these matters, because I uever thought them of enough importance. The cabinet 18 at peace. Tbe republican party is really at peace, aud the country is at peace. t is only ;be politiciana wbo are at war, and they will soon end that when they see that the country takes no interest in it. Evarts reluaed to speak of the New lork appointments further than to say the tenure of oLBce act did not prevent the president from sending in unconfirmed names as often ub be wanted to. DIAZ DYNA&TY. It is probable the question of recognizing recog-nizing Diaz' will be formally considered con-sidered next week. NEZ-PERCE9. The cabinet will also give attention to the wishes of the Nez-fercea Indians to return to the United States. Government Gov-ernment awaits further advices before be-fore final action. TO OUST SENATOR BUTLER. Journal's - Washington: Senator Butler's friends are greatly excited over the discovery of an alleged plot on the part of republican senators to expel Butler from the senate. Senator Cuckrell claims to havn knowledge of tfuch movement and in an interview charges that tbe scheme is to coerce Connver into supporting a resolution ousting Butler, and by taking udvan tago ol Senator Patterson's illness to (urce tbe resolution through the senate. Careful inquiry in republican quarters fails to disclose that there is any foundation for this alarm, although republicans would be glad if such a resolution could be got through the senate, SIMON COMPROMISES. A statement is published that ex-Senator ex-Senator Simon Cameron has compromised compro-mised tbe suit that was brought against him for alleged breach of promise by Mrs. Mary A. Oliver, widow, by the payment of $1,000. The suit hao been withdrawn. DISCONTINUING LAND OFFICES. The president, to day, issued an order discontinuing the Sioux city land office, aod directing that its business and archives be transferred to the land office at Des Moines, Iowa. The consolidation is made be cause public lands in low have been 1 so generally entered that there seemB to bo no sufficient mason for maintaining main-taining more than one land office in the Blale. There are now lees than ( 2,000 acres of public lands in Iowa fully subject to disposal by government. govern-ment. Final proofs to obtain com plete title to a vast number of pendinp homestead entries may he made under un-der recent acln ot congress before any court of record in the county where the land is eiiualed, consequently it is no longer of importance to such settlers set-tlers that laud offices Bhould be near at hand. Another executive order issued to day discontinues the Independence, Culiloroia, land office and tranBferi i(e records and business to the Vianlia office. TLIE CHANDLER CHARGES.
