Stevens resolution asking official
proceedings, caused n bitter debate
in the Senate.
1t is stated that the Cabinet
changes are pending, and it is asscr-
ted that the new Cabinet will tend
to harmonize Congress and the
President, and that the President
will cease obstructing reconstruc-
ton on the Congressional plan
the progress of events having rem
dered his own impossible now, and
the material interests of the South
requiring immediate representation
of some kind.
This statement is made on high
Republican authority.
Politics very feverish. The at
mosphcre is is filled with the third
party element, though not sufficient
ly tangible yet to warrant details.
The Tribune is captious in the
elaboration Of last nights dispatch
regarding changes in Presidents
Cabinet and policy. 1t speaks as
follows:
"The Washington agent of the
Associated Press, telegraphs the fol-
lowing, probably under White House
and Grimes, Fessenden & Co.'S
dictation." "
The tone of the leading Northern
papers, and the spirit of the debates
in both the Senate and the House
to-day Indicate that the acquittal s
element, with Chase at its head, is
to be read out of the Republican ;
party, if the Chicago Convention l
can be ruled by Radical Congress- !
men and editors. +
The Tribune's Washington dis I
patch says: First, the conspiracy f
on the part of Fessenden, Trumbull I
& Co., includes not merely the de-
feat of impeachment, but of the Re
publican party, and of the candidate t
of the Chicago Convention. 1
So far as Mr.. Chase is concerned, t
it is known, for he does not hesitate q
to say it, that he holds that the Re- c
publican party has been led in a 9
wrong direction, and that he has t
always been opposed to impeach- f
ment. He has not abandoned those Q
principles which ho claims to be a
He believes in impair v
tial suffrage and universal amnesty. v
Within the last few days Mr.. Chase y
has said that if the Republican v
party should persist in its present i
course, a new party must inevitable d
be organized.
The Times special has the follow t
ing: a
"The stories about Chase and the
Presidency are finally coming into t
some tangible shape. He has for A
mally put himself into the hands of a
his friends, and said that while he b
Is not a candidate, he cannot object t
10 the use of his name, and will run fl
if nominated by the Conservatives" "
The Worlds special says it is A
generally understood tonight that h
# the vote had been taken upon all a
The articles of impeachment yester- Ii
lay, the President would almost Il
have reorganized his h
Cabinet.
The State, Treasury, War and d
Interior Departments were, as the t
report said, TO be put in other hands. n
The following are persons named Il
rs those who were to assume the
several secretaryships: o
State, VIM NJ. Evarts; Treasurer, Il
Mr. Groesbeck; War, ex-Gov Cox, of $ $
Ohio; Interior, MIR Catron, of III; II
Mr. Stanbery would probably be re- a
turned to the position of Attorney G
Mr. Vance is mentioned for
the new head of the Post Office De- q
partment. u
As the impeachment stands, none a
of the changes can be expected to be G
made yet.
The administration of the I'm s.
parchment Court will probably con-
Iinue for.an indefinite period in the n
present hands.
