THE LOUISIANA SENATORSHIP
New York Herald

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-Reports are
circulating here that the President has
said that he favors the admission OF Mr..
Kellogg as Senator from Louisiana.
They are false. The President has
said nothing Of the kind. He has not
expressed any wish favorable to either
or any Of the contestants, holding that
it is the Senate's duty and highest pri-
vilege to judge in these matters. It is
not Impossible that some Senator may
presently rise to declare his belief that
Louisiana Is entitled to representation
in the Senate and that the committee
ought not unduly to delay reporting on
the cases or keep the matter from the
decision of the Senate. On this point a
number of Republican Senators are
agreed, without committing themselves
beforehand as to who ought to have the
seats. It is felt, therefore, that Mr..
Spofford blundered to-day when he
asked the. committee for more time to
prepare his case. 1t is understood that
he wishes to reply to some new points
presented by Mr.. Kellogg, but Mr..
Spofford probably has a case of his own,
and his friends would do we'll to urge
him to put it in and let the committee
go ahead,

When the Committee on Privileges and Eec-

THE CIGAR MAKERS STRIKE.
The Manufacturers Propose to Close
Their Manufactures.

New YORK. Oct. 26.-The cigar makers strike
seems to assume a position to-day apparently
causing some alarm to the operatives, who are
less defiant in heir attitude, Committees
have b. en- appointed to watch the entrance to
the various shops The mf seem to be some
what hnmbled, and express desire to resume
work if they Can do so consistently,
The cigar packers are being made the means
of arbitration between the employers and the
operators, and as they have only struck out of
sympathy and have no cause for complaint on
their own account, it was expected that they
might be more successful than If the cigar
ma kers appointed committee of their own to
make negotiations. 1t is we'll understood that
those employing cigar makers intend to close
manufacturers believe they will make more
money by such course than if they kept their
shops at full work.

opened two more relief stores for the benefit

TFlE COLLECTORSHIP.

and Kings FrIeuds.

:, WASN'T HaToN. Oct 2s.-It is learned at the
Treasui y Department that Collector King of
New @ leans has been notified that Messrs:
HAL. ternon and Davis, recently nominated as
inspet tors. are confirmed. the other two are re-
gecte6. The request for additional inspectors
1s d sapproved, the department being OF the
opin Ion that the force of inspectors now en-
pio rod are sufficient. provided each inspector is
me de TO perform his duty.
!fhe request for an additional clerk in the
AZ iditors Office is approved. as are also the ap-
ofntments Of Frederick H. Whitaker as store
X soper and Charles W. Ringgold as examiner.
= Che opinion is expressed that q reduct on "a
ne number OF examiners from six to four Will
not retard the work of the Custom House. pro;
yided the examiners are men OF experience and
Mpply themselves strictly to their duties. -,
There seems no doubt that the President will
hs0nd Collector Kings name to the Senate for
teonfrmation, Notwithstanding a great pres
sure has been made to have Mr.. Packards NOM
ination substituted.
The Presidents responsibility ceases after tr
the nomination reaches the Senate. The
friends. of Mr.. Packard cl i'm that Mr. King
cannot be confirmed, while Mr.. Kings friends
are confident that he will be confirmed: Mr..
Paekard's chance for the collectorship lies in
having Mr.. Kings conf nation defeated and a
strong fight will be made to that end.
} The Cabinet session to-day WAS comparatively
brief, and devoted almost exclusively to the
consideration OF routine business.

WAR NOTES.
BEFORE PLEvNA,
Gen. GhOurkO's II aid and Attack ON Ha-
fZ PaSha.


ffZ Pasha.
LONDON. Oct. 26.-The defeat of the Turks.
and the Establishment Of a strong Russian force
west of Ievna. looks like the beginning of a
serious tempt to shut hazi Osman in his line
and submit Pievna to a regul siege.
Gen. GhOurko s movement seems 10 have been
part of a concerted plan. A portion of the in-
fantry of the Imperial Guard crossed the Vid
between kopolis and Plevna. passing around
Osnan's left.
Gen. Ghourko's cavalry crossed the upper
Vid, west of Lovatz, swept the Orchanie road
got in communication with the fore. coming
from the north and made combined attack on
the Turks, who were command ,d by Hafiz
Pasha, the same who took The first convoy into
Plevna.
Simultane 1usly with this attack heavy can
nonade was opened a. aOng the entire line east of
Plevna, and Demonstrations made to give the
impression of an intended assault to prevent
Ghazi Osman sending sqccor to Hahz Pasha
large part of his command. The impression
prevails that since the recent rains the Rus
sfans. convinced of the impossibity of winter
ing in Bulgaria, will make desperate effort to
effect the reduction of Plevna, and the defeat of
Suleiman Pashas army before retirement into
Roumania becomes necessary. The Russians
would thus stand in better position should
diplomacy intervene during the cessation of
operations,
