Washington. Sept. 2s.-Judge Fol-
gers name has been frequently men,
toned in the cabinet speculations dur
ing the last three days. 1t is remem-
bered that he was strongly backed by
Conkling for position when Garfield
came in.
Boutwell,, of Massachusetts,, who had
an interview yesterday with the presi-
dent. returned home to-day. In con-
versation he admitted that he had been
summoned here by telegraph for con-
sultation by the president, but declined
to state the subject discussed. That it
referred either to his appointment to a
place in the new cabinet or to the su-
preme vacancy, is the general assertion.
1t is on the cards that he will take
Hunts place as secretary OF the navy.
Some southern politicians. of more
notoriety than prominence, visited the
president to suggest the name of Rev.
w. N. Hicks for postmaster general
Hicks is now preaching in DR.. Sunder-
Inns church. this city; at the close of
the war he preached for awhile in
Charleston, and subsequently in Savan-
nah and Macon, and latterly in Jack
sonville, Florida, and always appearing
in politics where opportunity offered.
He was Grant delegate in the Chica-
go convention. He is possessed of fine
ratorical powers.
General Raum, who has been mem
TONED for secretary of war should
Lincoln retire, declines to be considered
a candidate. He is well satisfied with
his present important post, and does
not believe Mr.. Lincoln will retire.

Washington, Sept. 2S.-Had Garfield
lived, there is little doubt but that
Chief Justice Horace Gray, of Massa-
chusetts, would have been named to hll
the vacancy in the supreme court
created by the death of Clifford. Ex-
Attorney General Devens had some
pretensions to fill the vacancy, and was
strongly urged upon Garfield by Hayes.
he was however appointed associate
justice of the supreme court of Massa-
chusetts by Governor Long, and will be
satisfied, it is said, by the appointment
to the chief justiceship Of the same
court, in place Of Gray, should Arthur
carry out the arrangement made by his
predecessor. Judge Gray is described
by Senator Dawes as q man of large
inherited wealth and Of the best blood
Of Massachusetts,. He studied law
from pure love Of the profession, and
was appointed to the supreme bench
before he was forty years of age. He
has never been interested in or en-
ployed by railroads or other corpora
tions, and is entirely free from such in
fiuences. he is republican, but has
taken no part in the organization of the
party, or in working its machinery.
In person, he is magnificent specimen
OF manhood. being as large as Charles
Sumner. Judge Gray has the heartily
support Of Governor Long and both the
senators from Massachusetts,, and prob
ably will have no opposition from New
England, which is entitled to the va.
cancy, that section being now with.
out a representative on the supreme
bench.

Detroit, Sept. 2s.--The latest news
from the wrecked steamer at Grasse
Isle is more favorable. 1t is thought
now that no lives were lost, and that
the missing man Bloom has been heard
from, while the visit of a diver to the
submerged car, reveals no bodies
therein. All the baggage was got out
BY him. The escape from loss of life
was well nigh miraculous.
A collision occurred this morning
between the propeller Jay Gould and
the tug Swain, Of Detroit, just OF
Maiden, near the mouth OF the Detroit
river. The Swain sank in 13 feet ol
water; the tug was new, and owned
by Capt. Grummond. of this city. II
was valued at $4,000. The propeller
was not much injured.

state and the attorney general of the
united States upon the propriety OF

words to be brought to Washington.

was in the main saloon when the crash
came; the steamer reeled, 1 andlthought
we were going to the bottom. The
women screamed, some tainted, and all
that could rushed for the decks. The
boats were too slow to save any one on
the unfortunate vessel. We heard
cries for assistance but the poor fellows
drowned before we could give any. A
large hole was made in the port bow of
the Anchoria and her fore compartment
soon filed owing to the high wind and
heavy sea. Capt. Hilderwick says
the Anchoria lay to next morning, and
boats were kept out all night, but we
could not find none of the crew. Be-
fore getting under way again we put a
patch over the hole made in in our
bow"

Washington, Sept. 2s.-Attorney
General MacVeagh stated this evening
that he recognized to the fullest the
propriety of PresidentArthur's selecting
as his confidential advisers gentle
men who had heretofore sustained the
relations not only Of personal good will
but also Of political sympathy. Indeed
he did not think any administration
could be strong If there was any
ground for suspicion or distrust among
its members. As soon, therefore, as
President Arthur had taken the oath Of
office, MacVeagh said he had rendered
his resignation in writing. He also as
sured the president that his resignation
was not q form but fact and he hoped
it would be convenient to designate his
successor by the time the senate met in
special session. MacVeagh added, on
public ground, that he felt no difficulty
in pursuing the course his feelings die
tated. The only political work to
which he attached any Importance now
was the work of the administrative re-
form. including, of course, the exposure
and relentless pursuit Of all plunderers
of the public treasury. II President
Arthur engages heartily and thoroughly
in that good work. as he hoped and be-
lieved he would, than he was entitled
to credit, doing it with the attorney
general Of his own selection and not
with the one inherited from President
Garfield.

Chicago, Sep. 28.-There is nothing

However, there is considerable excite

stated that a Cincinnati paper issued

New York, Sept. 2s.-There is a be-
lief that Postmaster General James and
Attorney General Macveagh will not
be allowed to resign until the Star

lest any failure on the part of the gov

to shield the accused parties. The
names Of Jones and Logan are spoken
of in connection with the interior de-
partment; that of Emory Storrs for the
head Of the department of justice;
while Settle, Of North Carolina, will
be assigned to the navy, and ex-Gov.
