THE NEW ADMINISTRATION.

status that Eluye bcen 1uaslo up during tho
past fow days Till: Tn1nrSf Inns standby
maintained TINT Senator Allison Ind tho
preference for tito Treasury Department..
Tho correctness Ut this statement Inns been
verified by tin nctunl tender Of Tho position
Of Secretary ut tho Treasury to Mr. ALL
SOIL, aid Is not Impaired BY tic further
faet that l,c has declined tho position.
1t lIns been ut 10 time certain that Mr. All.
sou would accept the plaee, an4 IIc could not
ttcctLl,e 1t TIL 1t came 10 Him. 1t Is u nntter
fur sincere regret that hc has reached tho
determination not to talc the Treasury port.
folIo, but his REASONS for t!rc!lning
arc OF personal AMI f.mily nature
which must rcliovn him from criticism.
lte did not shrink fran tho respoilsi-
bllitfes Of tlle Office, on tho one
hand. tlor was lie at any tlmo particularly
ambitious to seek tho erlbarrassmcnts mil
unnoynnccs that attach to II, but tho filinl md
determining reason Tint prompted lin to .le-
cline WIS ill-lealth In Ills fan.iiy, tn whom
he beloycs he owes Ills first duty. This
motive will fully justify his course, however
t disappointing Ills decision may bc to Ills
friends mud to the public, which lias acquired
great confidence III his fitness for the pUst-
ton.
The decinnton Of Mr.. Allison naturally
affects other places III the Cabinet. 1t Is now
probable ttlat Mr.. Window will bc Secretary
ri the Treasury. 1t Is doubtful whether Mr..
kirkwoolt will be restored to thu sLatu. a1ld
