his opinion that the Treasury could pay OIL the
entire assessment OF per cent bo2ds, about
maturing, by selling lG4, 600 unsold 4 per
cents and applying the surplus revenues to the
same end. Yesterday he submitted to the Cabi-
net detailed statement, carefully prepared by
L. S. Treasurer Gilflllan, going to show that he
was correct In his premises, and that the fail.
ure to get funding bill through, by reason OF
President Hayes veto, could hardly be given
to the country as an acceptable reason for con-
yening the new Congress.
Since the opening Of the new administration

II was known, however. that at yesterdays
meeting no action had been taken favOrlng a

An Interesting Case in Chicago

DENCE OF INSANITY.
A novel case was decided In the circuit court
In Chicago yesterday in which Judge Tuiey
held that proof that man believed In Spirit
ualtstic phenomena was no evidence OF a mans
insanity Or incapacity to take care OF his own
a1ailS. The undue influence or this case was
that exercised by a splrttualistic medium-Mrs.
ChamDeriatn-over Col. II. ". II. CuShrnan
now deceased. Cushman held a policy In the
Republic Life insurance company for So 600,
Which his exc cutor claimed as an asset OF the
estate. while Mrs. Chamb mberlain claimed IL on
an equitable assignment. which the executor
resisted On the ground that at the time OF the
assignment CuShman was incapable OF making
binding contract, owing TO insanity caused
by Splrltualtsm. 1t was proved that for many
years Cushman had been a firm believer In
communication with departed spirits: that he
had been in the habit OF consulting spirits al
most daily, and placed considerable value upon
counsel purporting TO come from them through
mediums, and at one time had invested largely
In worthless mine through their advice.
Judge Tuley said that men VINO stand high In
science, lu0ges who adorn the bench. attorneys
solicitors, clergymen, physicians, literary men
OF tie highest ability; and In fact, men In every
walk and condition OF life honestly believed
IN ehese phenomena, and so II would be the

The NOmisatiOnST To-day.

sTALwARTS AND ANTI sTALwARTS GET A SHOW.
The nominations sent in TO the Senate to
day By the President are a mixture OF stalWarts
and anti.stalwarts. No one Will gainsay where
VIM. E. Chandler, who has been nominated az
solicitor general, stands. Solicitor Phillips
who succeeds to the vacancy On the Court Of
Claims, is rather CT the anti.stalHarts. 50 is
also Robertson, nominated to be collector OF the
port OF New York. Asthe stalwartS, however,
yesterday bagged all the important judicial
offices 1t was probably thought best to give
the other side show. T. NJ. Nichol, nominated
to be Commissioner OF Indian affairs, was the
secretary OF the late hard-money league. TO
h1m is given the credit OF having checked the
greenback craze in Wisconsin. During the
summer he spent much OF his time at Mentor,
and IL is said arrayed the truce whereby Gov.
roster got out OF secretary SherEnau's way for
the senatorial vacancy.
1t Is said that the President has made up his
mind TO appoint Mr. Greer, OF Pa, Second AS
sistant Postmaster General. Greer was dele
gale 10 the Chicago convention, and voted for
Gen. earned from the very first ballot and On
every ballot,
