| Secretary Sherman Would Popularize tho

Scheme. ..
Special Dispatch to The Tribune.
WASHINGTON, D. C.. Sept. 15.-Those in po-
sition to know say that Secretary Sherman,
among his other financial recommendations
will urge legislation which will tend moro #.
fcctually SO popuiarize Government loans
through the medium Of bonds Of small demon
nations. He prefers this plan to the posts
savinys-bank system, which has been agitated.
Congressman Schleicher, Of Texas, notwith-
standing the peaceful rumors OF the last fev
days, is confident that there will soon be trouble
between Mexico and the United States, and that
the Mexican population will force Diaz's Cor
crnmcnt to take the initiative. He thinks
the intentions both Of President Diaz and bis
representative here, Senor Mata, are the best
and that they are earnestly seeking to establi.s
peace and friendly relations With this country
but be is OF opinion that the turbulent popnls
ton behind them will force them to overt acts,
especially as there is 4 very large faction IN
Mexico which thinks that the Diaz Government
could be more firmly established by threaten
ing demonstration towards the United States.
Secretary Evarts left this morning, and Sec-
retary Schurz and Postmaster-G General Key this
evening, to JOIN the President at Louisville.
The only representative of the Administration
now in the city Is Secretary Sherman, and he
assigns as the reason for not being at Louisville
the fact that his house here is undergoing re-
pairs. The croakcrs are already beginning tn
talk about absentceism, Notwithstanding the fact
that more Cabinet officers have made Washing
ton their permanent summer home during this
Administration than for many years before. ;
Senator Ransom, Of North Carolina, declares
emphatical1y that the Democrats will not en-.
deayor to secure the organization Of the Senate
br trickery, or By any bargain With dissatisfied
carpet-bagger Republicans. He says that the
Democrats will obtain possession Of tho Senate
in the regular course OF elections within 4 ysar
ut the best, and that the party would lose more
than it could gain by any such attempt now.
Democrats, who are planning this reoFganiza~
ton Of the Senate, place their reliance
upon the supposed willingness OF tho
disappointed carpet-baggcrs to cooperate with
them. In this programme one fact is oye:"
looked The four disaffectel Southern Rcpub-
lican Senators now all have important Chair
rnanships, much more important ones lh1n
under any Democratic organization OF the Sen-
ate they would be likely to secure. The car
pct-baggcrs are not likely to abandon theseiEst-
class committee Charmanships for the almost
certain chance OF securing less advantageous
position under Democratic organization OF the
Senate

General having been called home, the Advisory
Board will take no further action in the matter
Of the Southern Penitcnt,ary location. Since
the visit of the Board to Chester, Alton, and
Grafton, its members seem as much perplexctl
as the Commissioners were. It is certain, how
ever, now that Chester hasn't thugs all its own
way, and that the claims oi the other competing
points viii recc1Fe due consideration before final
act1pnl is taken. The proximity Of Alton to a
large market-St. .Louis-is believed to have

appears that Dyer left Groyeport last night to

for the purpose Of paying for stock.
Near where the articles were found OIL
