 WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The general belief
 here tonight is that at least two Cabinet changes will be announced when the Senate convenes tomorrow, the retiring members being Secretaries Windom and MacYeagh. It is known that the President has upon his desk above one hundred nominations to be sent to the Senate and the impression is that final adjournment of the Senate will be pos sible in two or three days. The President has definitely stated that he will have no communication to send to the Senate other than nominations. The fact that nothing the Cabinet meeting to day, and that Cabinet changes were not referred to, is taken as evi-
 dence by some that no immediate changes
 are contemplated, but on the other hand it is
 said that Secretary Windom told friend last
 night that the President would name his suc-
 cessor within forty-eight hours. It is pretty
 well understood that Judge Folger, of New
 York, stands one of the best chances for this
 position. It is thought that the Attorney Gen
 Secretary Blaine expects to retire before long
 and devote his time to the practice of inter-
 ests elsewhere.
 The Democratic Senators went into eau GUS
 soon after the adjournment of the Senate to-
 day, the subject under consideration being
 MT. Edmunds' resolution to continue the
 standing committees. The unknown attitude
 of David Davis places the Democrats in an embarrassing and uncertain position, as their pends, now that the three new Senators have
 been admitted, upon his voting with them.
 There was prolonged discussion and after appointing Messrs. Pendleton, Davis of West
 Virginia and Butler 8 committee to confer
 with like committee of the Republican cau- GUS, which will meet at 10 a. m. tomorrow, the caucus adjourned to the same hour. It is understood that the Democrats will not under any circumstances push the matter to the extremity of deadlock.
 The grand jury heard General Hagen and several other witnesses in the Howgate en- bezzlement case to day. It will be several days before bill can be returned
 It is probable that the Star routers' mo- tion to set aside the information will be arpu- ed on Friday, as Colonel Ingersoll, one of the counsel. goes West next week. The grounds set forth in the motion are First, no notice was given of the filing of information; second, that the court was without jurisdiction in the matter third that the offense charged is three years old and the delay of information unaccounted for; fourth, insufficient afidav- wits; fifth, the proceedings are unauthorized and contrary to pFactice; sixth, the informa- tion does not charge an ofense against the United States; seventh, the matters charged were impossible of execution by defendants eighth, the information is not filed according to law; ninth, because of the time of alleged commission of the acts charged they were authorized by the standing rule of the Post office department, which also was made un- der force before General Brady was assistant postmaster.
 The best information obtainable is to the effect that Guiteau will certainly be put to plead to morrow. A copy of the indictment and the list of witnesses was served on Gci- teau at the jail this afternoon. The indict ment was read to him in his cell. What he said is not known. Mir. Scoville has thus far been unsuccessful in trying to get law yer to assist in the defence of the assassin.
 The first vignette of the late President which will appear among the Treasury issues will be upon the checks for six per cent bonds continued at 1-2 per cent. These cheeks embrace the first issue which can be utilized for that purpose In the Postofice department the vignette of the late President will be placed upon the five cent postage stamp.
 It is reported that Congressman Jorgen- sen, of Virginia, will very soon publish circular address, urging Virginia Republicans to support Malone and his readjuster ticket Jorgensen says Mahone's conduct in voting for Senator Anthony for President of the Senate against Bayard proves him to be a good enough Republican to deserve party support, and that he (Jorgensen) is satisfied to support him.
 According to the latest information, it m P be stated almost to certainty that no names for Cabinet positions will go to the Senate to- morrow. The entire slate will probably be submitted on the following day. Secretary Lincoln. will undoubtedly be retained.
 There is strong possibility that in order to avoid any deadlock in the Senate a com nlittee of both parties will be appointed, to whom nominations will be referred and ac- tion on the change of Senate committees will be referred.
