IN THE CABINET.
Senator Teller. of Colorado, Assured a
Portfolio in Arthur's Cabinet,
His Nomination as Secretary of the
Interior Confidently Expected.


Washington, March 22.-The in
fiuence which has brought about the
selection of Senator Teller for the in
terror department has been various.
Teller has been a warm supporter of
Coukling In his contest with the two
presidents. He voted against Merritt's
confirmation when Arthur was removed
from the New York custom house by
Hayes, and also voted against Robert
sons confirmation last spring. He is
therefore thoroughly acceptable to the
stalwart wing. He is also from what
may be called the Pacific state, and will
be in a Measure satisfactory to the far
west in its demand for recognition in
the cabinet. His nomination will be
favorably received by the great railroad
interests of the west,' particularly by
the Union Pacific and Kansas Pacific.
His friends have quietly canvassed the
senate and house for the purpose of
ascertaining how the selection would
strike the members, and there seems to
be no doubt thu nomination will 90 in
within a few days, probably this week.
Judge Belford is regarded as the sue
cessor of Teller in the Senate.
An ex-senator, one of the social and
political friends of the president, to-
night said he did not believe any cab
met officer would be taken from the
aaN.NN H., WILL. ---.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

Washington, March 22.-The order
sending Capt. Thos. IL. Bradley to his
company, and the resignation of II. L.
Crosby, chief clerk Of the war depart
ment, has given rise to much comment
in army circles. Capt. Bradley has
been On detail duty at the war depart
ment seven years and has never served
a day with his company since his ap-
pointment to the regular army. Gen.
Sherman has urged his return to his
regiment with great earnestness on sew
eral secretaries, but until now without
success. Crosby has been chief clerk
sixteen years, and it is asserted that his
removal was decided upon before his
resignation was received, and that an
investigation will be instituted into the
administration of the war department
building. 1t is said that the power
heretofore exercised by the chief clerk
and certain subordinates will be greatly
reduced, and s~tricter accountability &C.
cepted. These changes. and those
threatened have produced a good deal
of excitement among the clerks in the
war department, as several removals
are predicted.
The record of the court martial case,
Cadet Whitaker, are to be made public
tomorrow through special orders of the
war department. These orders set
aside the verdict and sentence of the
court martial on account of certain
irregularities and information in tax
ing evidence; they will release Whit
taker from arrest. At some future
time they will dismiss him from the
military academy on provision sec. 1925,
of the revised statutes, relating to dis
charging cadets found deficient in stud
les. The action of the president is based
upon the opinion of Attorney General,
Brewster, to whom the secretary of
wal has referred the report of the Judge
advocate general, that improper evil
dence had been admitted in Whittaker's
trial.
Judge advocate, general Swain, is
understood to recommend a modifca-
ton of the sentence of Sergeant Mason,
upon the ground that Guiteau was not
in u position where he could possibly
have been killed by Mason, and that
under such circumstances the assault
with intend to kill cannot be sustained.
The republican caucus have chosen
IS members of the congress campaign
committee, II. F. Page, of California,
John P. Jones of Nevada, and NJ. G.
George of Oregon. Colorado was not
chosen.
To-day's continuation of the debate
on the Chinese bill called for the views
of several prominent members of the
house, and during most of the time
was of a high order of interest.
The president has issued a formal or
der disappearing of the sentence of the
court martial in the Whitaker case,
and has ordered his dismissal from ar
rest.
The Star tonight says: 1t is stated
by persons thought to be well informed,
that senator Teller, of Colorado, is to
nominated Secretary of the Interior.

An examination of the retired list of
the army, with reference to ages, devel-
opes some interesting facts. Colonel
Pitcairn Morrison is the Oldest officer
on the list, approaching his eighty-sixth
year. General Ramsey comes next,
near SO, and Lieut.. Michael Moore
next, over 80. The three youngest off,
GERS on the list are Lieut.. E. A. Benja-
min "a, two others, Lieuts. Braden and
Fitzpatrick, being only a few months
older. A glance wei the list shows
that Al officers are W. 70, 119 over
60, 1872 over so, this includes all those
over 60 and 10Y, II are aged "A, 16 aged
46, 16 aged As, Is aged 80, 9 aged Sc, IA

81, 10 aged 40, 10 aged Al, 10 aged 40,
10 aged so, II aged 81, and II aged Go.

turning age, as the number of retired
officers over so and under that age are
