TELEGRAMS,

| White River Utes were paid their money
at the Uintah agency, they returned to the
old reservation. They wers recently joined
by some Uncompaghres, who were ell route
to Uintah and the fighting portion of both
branches of the tribe are row wandering
over the old reservation. 1t is understood
that as soon as the Uncompaghres all arrive
| at Uintah and are paid, the commissioners
viii report their work finished, to the inter-
! for department, in order that proclamation
can be issued declaring the reservation open
for settlement.
| New York, Oct 6-Since the erection
of the new building for the burean of print
ing and engraving, half mile from the
treasury department. there has been con-
structed heavy carriages, with almost lur-
glar proof sides, ends top and bottom, all
| being mads of plate iron. The single door
is in the rear heavily secured by strong
| combination lock- Into this bonds, notes
or stamps printed at the bureau, are placed
and the door locked, the key being retained
| by the superintendent. This vehicle is then
driven to the treasury deparement where a
duplicate key of the door is kept and unlock
ed anu the contents removed. 1t was un-
derstood that it was decided to-day to make
| use of this novel vehicle for the transporta-
ton of Guiteau from the district Jail to the
court room to plead to the indictment found
| against him yesterday. The conveyance is
to be taken to the Jail during the night to
be in readiness for the removal of the pris-
| oner; who will be a:ed in it and safely
locked in, the key being retained at the
Jail. He will then be taken about daybreak

crowd gathers iii the vicinity of the Jail
Cambridge, Oct. 6.-1he republican state
convention met to. day. John A. j. Cress-
well was elected permanent chairman and
spoke very feelingIy in regard to the death
OF the late president.
Washington, Oct 6.-President Arthur
has not yet fully decided as. to. his cabinet
appointments, as he has been conn elled to
! give much OF his time lately to deposition
of private affairs. This much can be ated
with positiveness, that he has as nred
! Postmaster General James and Secre ary
| Hunt that they can remain in his cabint t as
| long as they desire to retain their positions
and that he wishes them to remain i'll the
| positions they now hold. Both of then
| will remain. Secretary Blaine viii retire
as early as he really wishes to do so. The
story that Blaine wishes to remain in the
cabinet is not true. This was stated to the
western association press agent to day by a
| very prominent republican who has closest
relations with Blaine.
Within the last few days it has become
apparent that the Pacific slope will ask to
| be represented iii Presi lent Arthurs cabinet;
| the reasons are obvious. 1t would seem
| that the interior department is generally
desired because so much of its business re-
| lates to that quarter. Among the names
most frequently mentioned are ex-senator
Stewart and senator Jones of Nevada, Geo.
| c. Gorham and ex-senator Booth, Cole and
| Sargent. ex-senator Mitchell, besides some
others. A Sun special states positively
that Jones has been offered the secretary
ship Of the interior and declined.
| Philadelphia, Oct. 6.-The Ledger's New
special states positively that the president
has offered Conkling the post of secretary of
| the treasury and he has accepted it with the
understanding that he will enter upon the
duties of office when the regular session
commences. When the inside history Of
Jones' recent hasty errand to Utica and the
| presidents subsequent visit to New York
comes to be written, it will be found that it
was to perfect this arrangement by which
Conkling has BEEN kept away from the CON
vention.
| New York, Oct. Ga Herald Washing
ton special says President Arthur has not
been helped at all in his cabinet arrange

! whelming anti COnkling sentiment in New
York. It Is fact that the defeat of the
] Conkling men in New York operates t,
break on all the stalwart plans for a stall
! wart cabinet Grants influence with Ar
/ thur is also affected by the strong anti
Conklng sentiment of the republicans OF
| New York Arthur hardly knows what 10
do and there is good reason to believe that
no cabinet slate has yet been arranged.
| A Times Washington special says: By the
way uf Yorktown there comes an Interesting
bit of gossip about Gen. Hancock. 1t ap-
| pears that he is now more than ever a can
didate for the presidency. The way he was
received when he went across the country to
attend Garfields funeral has given him a
most encouraging sign of his popularity,
and at Yorktown during the coming centen.
NAL celebration Hancock proposes to do
some good work for 1884. lie has charter
| ed one of the most elegant sound steamers,
and will proceed to Yorktown attended by
| his staff and bndyguard, and proposes t.
entertain his guests very handsomely on
| board During his stay be will give All
elegant dinner to the governors and .heir
| stats. He will also dine the most promi-
nenr visitors in the way, Gen. Hancock is a
man who appears better at close range than
at distance, his friends therefore think
he will help his popularity very much by
entering his role of princely entertainer at
| Yorktown.
| Workmen are engaged in putting in an
| elevator at the White House. They are
! taking up carpets to prepare the White
| House for the new president. 1t has leen
| said the house is fairly alive with vermin
| and it will take at least two months to
make the place habitable.
| at the State Republican Convention OF
| New York, the committee on resolutions
presented the following, which was atlopted:
The republicans of New York declare as
follows: We unite with our fellow citizens
throughout the country in deploring the in
| calculable calamity which has befa!len the
country in the death of our late president
Jas. A. Garfield. Under the kindly infu-
ence Of American institutions and by the
/ force Of noble manhood he rose from the
humblest walk of life to the highest station;
by manliness and gentleness of nature, by
| loftiness of public spirit and disciplined
intelligence for public affairs, by strength
of polite Il construction blended with singu-
lar moderation of temper and urbanity of ex-
preston above all, by that rare and noble
| temper which dares to be first. and which
alone composes angry states reconclies

he WIS elevated by the free choice OF his
