SECRETARY SHERMAN NOT TO LEAVE THE
CABINET.-A special dispatch to the New York
World from this city SayS:-The story that Sec
retary Sherman intended reSigning from the
Cabinet as soon as the success of resumption is
assured was repeated here yesterday Some
time ago Col. MOulton, of Cincinnati. Mr.. Sher-
mans brother-in-law, said that Brother John
was tired OF being at the head of the Treasury
department and might leave the Cabinet AFTER
January l, 1879. The latest Cabinet change
rnmor had Mr.. Sherman reStgning to accent the
republican nomination for governor of Ohio
next faH. In conversation 18th World CORE
spondent tonight, Secretary Sherman said
- The statements made that intend to leave
the Cabinet are entirely without foundation.

ten'1onS am in no wise responsible for In ex-
pressing an opinion upon what would be like
~ to do. he probably gave his personal wishes
on tne suDJect. L am not candidate for the
republican nomination for governor Of Ohio. it
is a rather difficult matter for one to predict so
far In advance who the candidate will be, but I
am inclined to think that Mr.. Foster Will re-
celVe the republican nomination He is think,
the strongest available candidate in the state,
nave no Idea that Senator Thurman will
change his decision not to be the democratic
the reason he Will not accept the nomination is
because of lack Of strength to properly Conduct
the canvass. That reason Is very valid. The
candidates for governor In Ohio must visit and
speak in every county in the state, and it is ey-
tremeiy fatigTling work. Gen. Rice may be the
democratic candidate, and it would be a very
pretty race between him and Mr. Foster It
would be a close fight, but think Mr. Foster
would be elected
