The Presidents Return.
HIS CALLERS TO-DAY-THE WHITE HOUSE-THE
CABINET.

CABINET.
President Arthur, accompanied BY his private
secretary, Mr.. Reed, and Mr.. Phillips. of New
York, arrived in this city yesterday afternoon
on the limited express. The President was
driven at once to Senator Jones' residence on
Capitol Hill. To-day he was busy with his ste
no nno5grapher debating private correspondence.
Those who called up to one O'clock were Repre-
sentatives Caswell, of Wisconsin; Ryan, of Kan
sas, and Converse, Of Ohio. Sergeant-at-Arms
Thompson also called to pay his respects Sem
ator JONES' of Nevada, did not return to the
city. One of the attendants upon the President
was asked to-day when the President contem-
plated moving into the White House. 81 don't
KNOW" was the reply; II do know, though, that
the place is all torn up. and more than
that the furniture in the East room is Just alive
with insects. The President will hardly care to
move in until the White House is fumigated and
completely Overhauled."
There is no probability that a Cabinet session
will be called until after the Senate meets All
the members of the Cabinet are absent except
Secretary KirkwOOd.
Arrangements were made this morning for the
ceremonial call of the members of the Supreme
Court of the United States upon the President
at IL o'clock on Monday next.

FLUCTUATIONS IN THE STOCK MARKETS
New YORK. October 5.-The Posts financial
article Gao p. m. edition) says The stock ex-
change opened with the general expectation
that there was to be an upward reaction In the
stock markets, and during the first hour prices
were fully steady and some advanced. By IL
O'Clock, however, the whole list became weak,
and from then until 12:l5 o'clock there
was a decline ranging from Il TO per
cent, the latter Chattanooga TO 80 Read
Ing fell 3S to 60. The general opinion
Is that Mr.. Vanderbilt has enough of this stock
70 easily hold the balance OF power between the
McCalmonts and the Gowan party and that buy-
ing for the control is at an end There Is no ex-
plicit authority for the statement, but the opin-
ion prevails that Mr. Vanderbilt will at the elec-
ton unite with the McCamonts. who have by
far the largest permanent interest In the prop
erty of any of the contestants for the control

comparatively firm at 2011a2lL5; it does not
appear any applications have yet been

presses the hope that these will be made before
Tomorrow noon. The sub-treasury was again

the loan market Is fully as severe as 1t has been
any time this season and the stock brokers
are paying commissions ranging from 1-S2
to - of 1 per cent per day TO get
money at 6 per cent per annum.
The rates for time loans are nominal as are also
those for mercantile paper. The Stock Exchange
demand for money is readily diminishing on
account of the decline in prices: and the col
lapse i'm the Chicago speculation In grain also
reduces the amount of money required there,

President Arthur and the Garfield Memorial
Hospital.

DIR. j. A. Ashford and Mr.. A. 8. Solomons had
very pleasant interview with President Arthur
this morning, in reference to his being present at
the Garfield Memorial Hospital" meeting TO
night; and while he much regretted that his en-
gagements were such that precluded his being
personally present, expressed his hearty SYM
pathy with the movement, which he considered
the most appropriate to perpetuate the memory
OF the hOnored dead. and which should be both
. national and international tribute to the man
and his deeds.
Mr.. Justice Miller, OF the Supreme Court OF
the United States, will preside at the meeting,
and distinguished gentlemen Of national reputar
u0n VIII take part IN the proceedings. largo
attendance is desirable, and we are sure that
Lincoln Hall will not be found too large to ac-
commOdate the host Of admirers If the dead
statesmen and the Districts friend.

Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
NEW YORK, October 5.-The republican state
convention met at IL a. m. TO-DAY in the Aca.
deny Of Music The attendance of delegates
and spectators was not as large as was antici-
pated. The business Of the convention will all
be finished this evening. There ia no opposition
to the denomination Of Attorney General Ward
| and Secretary Of State Carr and the candidates
for chief engineer Gin place of HOratio Seymour,
Jr., and a demOcrat,) are not very numerous
Thus far everything is very quiet and harmon
fOus, though the half-breeds control the conyen.
ton Mr. Conkling is not in the convention no1
in the city. Mr.. Platt is in attendance and said
he regretted the absence of Mr. Conkling but
declined to give any reason for his not being
here.
The announcement in The Sun to-day that the
attempt to combine Messrs. Blaine and Conklins
in the Cabinet had failed, is believed here by
well posted politicians to be true. Mr.. Blaine il
is said, positively refuses to remain, not on the
ground that he is unwilling to serve with Mr.
Conkling; but he is not willing to take any ster
that will bring him into any sort of an alliance
with Grant. 1t is doubtful if New York has any
representation in the Cabinet for no tender of a
place will be made to Levi P. Morton or ex-Goy.
ernOr Morgan. No actual changes will be made
Till December, in order that the present Secreta-
ries may complete their reports to Congress.
The Tribune to-day says that in speaking on
this subject yesterday a gentleman who knows
as much of Mr.. Conklng's purposes as anybody
except Mr.. COnkling himself made an announce
ment of some significance. ''Mr. COnkling "
said he, Twill never take place in the Cabinet
never-never; that You may depend upon. He
has one political ambition, and, l believe, only
one. He will try to regain his seat in the Senate
in 1885, He does not want to be President, and
those who know what persistent man he is will
md it easy to guess whom ne will favor IN
1884,"
