WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The President ID
expected back hero either on Monday or Tues.
day OF next week. and will remain In the city
until the called session OF the Senate II over.
A very cloee friend Of the President said thas
Gen. Arthur would have greatly preferred to
remain In Washington until the Senate met.
and it was only because private business and
domestic arrangements. which could not b
sighted. compelled him to make brief visit
to New York. that he finally decided TO
go. He was very much afraid that his
visit at this time would be liable to b
msconstrued. and It was his purpose when he
went to avoid as far as possible any act which
would give the slightest ground for the belief
entertained BY many that his visit had anything
to do with the local politics OF the State OF New
York. This friend says that he guesses only
what may be the result OF the Cabinet changes.
and that he believes that is all that even the
nearest friend OF the President has besn able 70
do. His guess is that the President will % CON-
stitute his Cabinet as to strengthen himself
and at the same time compel the admis-
sion from the country that the Cabinet 10 .
