New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1877-03-10

A Washington dispatch, March Z, to the
Cincinnati Times, says:
Various political elements have been at
work to induce Hayes to withhold his Cabi.
net appointments few days.
All the reliable information attainable
this morning is to the eject that these iu-
huences have failed 10 shake the determine.
ti0R of PRECEDENT Hayes, and consequently
the nominations will be submitted to the
Senate to day. Some of the Republican
leaders were in very excited condition
last night because their advice had only
been listened TO and not followed. Yester-
dRy morning Senator Morton was reported
BY his intimate friends as being entirely
diseatlsded with the Cabinet. but later in
the day, when it became known that In
diana was 10 be recognized, all feeling of
dissatisfaction passed away. 1t is now no
secret that Morton addressed President
Hayes 3 note .ew-days ago asking the re-
tentlOn of Postmaster General Tyner, bat
submitting the names Of three other promi-
nent Indianiane for confederation in the
-eyent Of decision not to retain Mr.. Tyner.
From those persons named the President
selected Richard Thompson to represent
Indiana IN the Cabinet, aud yesterday Mr..
Morton was informed of the fact.
1t will be seen that the Cabinet, as con-
shtuted, contains no persona recognized rs
the special friend of Senator Blaine, and
that the latter is not represented in it. This
fact should not be construed as indicating
that the President had purposely ignored
Mr.. Blaine. The truth is that President
Hayes was not only desirous but anxious
that Maine should be represented in his
Cabinet in the person of one Of Mr.. Blaine's
particular friends. Mr.. Blaine was con-
suited in the matter and informed that his
wishes would be followed as near as posi-.
bio. A position was rendered, consecutive
", to three prominent cigizsns of Maine, all
close friends of Mr.. Blaine, but all de-
clined, and, as believed, by the advice
Of the Senator. In view of this friendly
manifestation on the part of Presi-
dent Hayes toward Mr.. Blaine, the
speech of the latter In the Senate yes
terday, Ia regarded by Republicans, very
close 70 the President, as significant. After
the refusal Of Mr.. Blaine's friends to enter
the Cabinet it was decided that the place
should be- rendered to Governor Rice, Of
Massachusetts. Senators Hear and Dawes
we're consulted in the matter and found to
be opposed to ii, on the ground that the
resignation Of Governor Rice at this time
would have bad effect on the party in
Massachusetts and complicate political mat
ters there They were of the opinion, there
FORE that Rice should remain In his present
office, and that the Cabinet position should
BE- given TO some other citizen Of the State,
WhereupoD GENERAL Charles DeEens was Sc
1ected.
There has been dissatisfaction manifested
among some Republicans over the selection
OF Carl SchuTz as q member of the Cabinet
and q pressure was brought to bear upon
the President yesterday aud last night to
induce him to reconsider his determination
in this respect While Tbs Presidents was
somewhat moved, according to the best in
formation that can be obtained, he Btill ad-
here's to bis early formed purpose to take
Enhurz into his Cabinet. The main oppoai-
ton 70 SEIZURE was personal, and came from
men with whom he hsd unfortunately quar-
relied WkSN in the Senate. The President
Was told that while Schurz was thoroughly
competent for any place shat might be ten
deged him, his quarrels and enemies were
90 numerous that aDythina like cordial re-
lntions between him and large number Of
Republican Senators vas utterly impoa-
aible. and that his presence In tbs Cabi-
net would only, IN the end greatly
embnrrasg the administration Tho
President was also told Tint there
would be- great opposition to his confrma-
tlOn In the Senate. Another Glass Of Re
puhiicans protested against the appoint
ment because they did not believe him 70 BE-
q aineera Republican, and said that bic 40
leQt'Qn would offend 3 large body Of Repub.
Beans IN the face Of all these etatemsnts
ana renonatrances, however, the President
adhered 70 hia purpose Of appointing
