WHO ACCOMPANIED HIM.


President Arthur left Washington for New
York at two o'clock this afternoon on special
car furnished by the Pennsylvania railroad.
Upon his invitation he was accompanied by
Postmaster General James, Secretaries Hunt
and Lincoln and their wives. Arriving at
New York, it is probable that the program
which had already been arranged by the
members of the Cabinet for their summer
vacation, will be carried out-Secretary Lincoln
going to Rye Beach and Secretary Hunt on a
visit of inspection of the northern navy yards
and stations. Attorney General MacVeagh will
pro badly remain in this city.
The arrangements for the departure of the
Presidential party were perfected so quietly that
there was no crowd at the depot, and only two
newspaper men out of the host in this city. The
party comprised, besides those mentioned
Speaker Geo. II. Sharpe, District Attorney Roll
Inns. OF New York, and Assistant Superin-
tendent Jameson. of the railway mail service
Secretary Hunt was the first to arrive at
the depot and he was quickly followed by Sec
retary Lincoln and Postmaster General James
When the Presidents carriage drove up to the
B-street entrance of the depot there was small
squad of policemen about the door "We don't
intend to have any more Presidents shot about
here" said Policeman Kearney to a reporter.
The President passed by the spot where Presi-
dent Garfield fell, and walking directly through
the depot was soon seated in his car. The whole
affair was over so quick that the few people who
were sitting about the depot hardly knew
what had happened. Mr.. Reed, the Presi-
dents private secretary. accompanied him
to the depot, but did notsego on to
New York. A servant, carrying huge lunch
basket, also attended the President. Secretary
Window did not accompany the party. but will
leave the city with his wife tomorrow. The
President will remain in New York, it is under
stood, four or five days.
WHO CALLED THIS MORNING.
The President spent quiet morning. 1t was
III before callers were received, although the At
torney General was admitted soon after 10. and
was still with the President at noon. Senator
Jones has not yet returned 1t is understood
that he is at Utica, New York. Soon after II
o'clock the Commissioners of the District called
to pay their respects Also Gen. Banks. Repre-
sentative Herbert of Ala. Senator Mcmillan of
Minnesota and others. Among the callers who
saw the President to-day and had a long confer
ence with him was Ben. Harris Brewster. Of
Philadelphia. He is retained by the govern
ment in the star route prosecution. His name,
though, has been mentioned in connection with
the Attorney Generalship. So far as Attorney
General MacVeagh is concerned it is known that
he has asked President Arthur to appoint his
successor at the earliest opportunity. The par
Ior of Senator Jones' residence is where the
President receives his guests. The library is
used as waiting room.

CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-George ScOyie, the broth
er-in-law of Guiteau, is in this city In answer
to the question whether he will act as counsel
for the assassin, he said to a reporter that he
would rather leave it to the government to ap-
point counsel for him. but his wife Gufteaus
nearest relation and almost his only friend on
earth. insists that he shall appear as counsel.
and he supposed he would have to grant the
request. He would. therefore. be on hand in
Washington when the assassin was called on to
plead The question was asked Do you antici-
pate speedy trial ?" Il don't know about that;
don't think Giteau can be tried right away
When he is called upon to plead the time for his
trial will be fixed. We will have to secure time
in order to prepare for defence Witnesses
Will have to be summoned from all parts of the
country, and that will take time '.What will

been pretty well outlined. / am not in favor of

should not advise anything else. We have known
nothing of Guiteau for three years past until this
summer. do not apprehend but that he will be
accorded fair trial Our greatest effort will be
to get men on the jury who will have judicial
minds, men who have read of the case know the
facts, and who will be fair in the trial believe
that the government will see that Guteau is pro-
tected, and that he shall have an impartial trial"

No Cabinet Changes Yet Decided Upcn,

THE PRESENT MINISTER'S EXPECTING TO RETIRE
NO NEW MEN YET SELECTED TO FILL THEIR
PLAcEs-wHY CHANGES ARE NECESSARY.
The numerous statements now being published
in reference to early changes in the Cabinet are
simply so much speculation, SO far as the indi-
Vlduals who have been named as successors to
the present incumbAts are concerned. While
it is probable that President Arthur WILL as
soon as he can with propriety and with
due regard to the public interest consider
the question OF reconstructing the present
or forming an entirely new Cabinet, there is
good authority for stating that he has not as
yet given the subject serious consideration and
that he has not discussed with any one the
claims OrqualilicatOns of any individuals in con-
nectiOn with the several executive portfolios
The position of all the members of the present
Cabinet is identical with that of Attorney Gem
eral MacEeagh, as explained in the general press
dispatches of last night. All of them recognize
the prOprety of the President surrounding him.
self with constitutional advisers of his own
choosing and are fully prepared to yield cheer
ful acquiescence in his wishes. While, however,
they have no desire to embarrass the new
President by remaining i'm their present positions
one day longer than he may deem desirable,
they have no disposition to cause him incon-
venlence at the beginning Of his administration
by abandoning their places before he is prepared
to select proper men to succeed them. The
members OF the present Cabinet, in word are
prepared to subordinate their own desires to
those of the President, and will do nothing that
will in the slightest degree interfere with any
action in the matter that he may decide upon
Conversation with those members of the Cabinet
now in Washington reveals the fact that they
expect the President, in his own time to form
an entirely new Cabinet, with, perhaps, one or
two exceptions. The indications now are, how
ever, that the present Cabinet will continue in
tact until after the regular meeting of Congress
in December next.
A member of the Cabinet in speaking of this
matter tonight said: None of us desire to con-
tinue in our present places We fully appre-
clate the position in which the President is
placed and feel that it is better for us and for
him that we should retire as soon as our sue
cessors can be decided upon. 1t is likely that
Preside mt Arthur has views and purposes with
which we could not agree. and our retirement.
therefore, would only be question of time
ANY material deviation from the policy marked
out by President Garfield would of necessity
compel us to resign, for we could not with self
respect continue to hold office after departure
from the policy Of cur late chief President
Arthur has been informed ofthis, and from what
can gather the present Cabinet will be almost
entirely changed as soon as it is deemed eXpedi-
ent to do so. Having determined to retire,
beileve the sooner our successors are chosen the
peter it will be for the President, ourselves, and
the country. y Wash. Special, N. y Times, to-

The Hot Weather.

TOMORROW TO BE WARMER THAN TO-DAY
The weatherwse man is put to his wits end
to explain the protracted hot spell invading the
autumn season. A STAR reporter and two Of
ficial prophets Of the signal bureau laid their
heads together this morning on the subject of
the weather. "You see." said one of the or
aces, there has been high hanging persist
emily off the coast of South Carolina for days.
while low barometer has prevailed north. Our
winds have been sOutheI1y for nearly MONTH"
why didn't the embryo cold wave. noticed
in the northwest yesterday come this way?'
That high barometer did it, The wave
moved east across New England The tempera-
ture dropped about twenty degrees there. 1t
fell here little but not enough to afford any
relief. There is a storm forming now in the
lake region but it will probably move in the
same line along the st. Lawrence valley and
across New England"
''Then will there be no let-up % gasped the
superheated reporter.
Mot now said the oracle. " It will prob
ably be warmer tomorrow than it is to-day

PIrTsBuRG, Pa, Sept. 29-Col. Rockwell.
Major Swain and Major Clapp, friends of the
late President Garfield, arrived in this city from
Cleveland last night and missing the connections
remained over until this morning. when they
continued their journey to Washington. IN the
course OF a conversation with reporter of the
Commercial Gazette. Major Swain said: "We ac-
cOmpanied Mrs. Garfield. Grandma Garfield the
children and Private Secretary Brown to the
old homestead at Mentor on Tuesday. We were
met at the depot by the RudOlphs, Mrs. Gar
fields relatives and were accompanied quietly
to the homestead. When we came in sight of
the old familiar spot. Mrs. Garfield was quite

Garneid study remains Just as he left it. and
one OF the sOrrOwing widows first steps was to
go into the room where she had spent so many
happy hours: She is gradually recovering from
the effects of the blow
The reporter asked: 80 Has she made any plans
as yet for the future!"
Major Swain replied: "MrS. Garfield said it
was too early to indicate where she will reside,
but thinks She will spend her summer at Men,
tor at the old home. During the winter season
she will spend part Of the time with her rea-
tiVes IN Cleveland. and part Of the time in Will
Jamestown Mass, where she will be near her
eldest boys, Harry and Jimmie, while they are
in attendance at Williams College"

Despite the many rumOrs which in some new

changes whatever will be made before the ses-
