The wEArnlK.-very little change has taken
place in the baronetrical conditions since Fri
day. The eastern margin of the OF lowest
pressure extends into the ocean Nova
Scotia. With the exception Of the lower Sec
tons Of the South Atlantic and Eastern Gulf
states and in the far West the pressure is con
sidcrably below the mean. The eastward
progress of the depre ssion that extends from
Nova Scotia 10 the western lakes is retarded
very much by the zone Of high barometer that
overles the ocean parallel with the coast from
the West Indies to about the iiftieth parallel Of
north latitude, and thence curvinp to the east
and south. IL s very probable that the low
pressure will continue to infiueLce the weather
for several days throughout MI the dis
tricts except in the Missouri Valley and
Eastern Gulf states. Rain has fallen in

have prevailed. The wind hss been light in all

from the west. Temperatures have fallen slightly
IN the Southern States, the lake region and
the Northwest. Elsewhere there has been q
senerzl rise. Thunder storms are likely 10 be
developed in the Northern Ohio Valley and the

during the next few days. The weather in New

WASHINGTON, October ID The "Star'
this sfIernoon says it can be authoritively
stated that there is no truth whatever in
the statements yariously made that the
President has decided or is about to decide
to change what il known as his Southern
policy. The President contemplates nc
such change. The principal reason for the
statement, is supposed to be letter written
by Attorney General Devens, which will
shortly be sent TO the District Attorneys OF
Alabama. Louisiana and South Carolina,
directing them to enforce the L. S. election
laws. This letter was written after such
facts had been laid before the President az
CLEARLY PROVED
that under existing circumstances no fair
election could be held in those States.
There was ample proof that such was the
case before the President and his Cabinet.
The President regards the enforcement OF
the laws as having no political aspect
whatever. 1t is only the national govern
ment performing a duty required Of it. Ii
similar condition of affairs should arise
in New York, or any other State in the
Union as exists in South Carolina, Louisi-
ana and Alabama, the United States Off
GERS would be directed to see that the elec-
tion laws are complied with.
THE CABINET SESSION
to day was of short duration. All the
members were present except Secretary
Sherman and Postmaster-G General Key. No
other than routine business was transacted
The President will be accompanied to the
Winchester State fair tomorrow by Mrs.
Hayes and perhaps by one or more mem
bers of the Cabinet The President will lot
