In the Cabinet.making that wns In pre
gress here durlngHMr. Hendricks visit
great many names were canvassed. /.
Tribune reporter who mingled with Il,
Democratic throng Of statesmen was con
stantly hearing new names suggested 70
the various offices. The Impression SCENE,
to prevail that Mr.. Hendricks, being
veteran politician, would have a great dra
to say In the formation OF tho Cabinet an,
the distribution OF official patronnvc
Close observers, however, discerncd tha
Mr.. cleveland will not rely on tho Vice
President but has already called into hi,
counsels younger and moreactive politi
clans. Chairman Gorman, Of MARYLAND
Daniel Lamont, Daniel Manning, William
2. Whitney, Hubert o. Thompson, Olive,
II. Paynei the millionaire treasurer OF the
Standard Oil Company, Senator Camden
OF West Virginia, and Democratic politi.
clans OF this modern school arc the ones
OIL whom MIR. Cleveland will lean for nd.
vice, II the inner talk among tho untcrri.
fled and rejnvenated can Be relied upon.
Some Of the leading names in tho long list
OF Democratic statesmen seem BY cominon
consent or knowledge OF Mr.. Cleyeland's
intentions to he laid aside. a.t ~ 4 ,g.0"S' =

ator.elect Payne, Of Ohio, prefers II career

would be called to tho Cabinet. Senator
pcndleton may be sent abroad, but II MIR.
Cieveland attempts to make stand for
Civil Service Reform, the politicians INV
tliat he would not 70 offend the rank and

Cabinet position: 1t seems settled TINT
no independent will 10 invited to the
inner council chamber Carl Schuz il
popularly supposed 10 be booked for the
Berlin Mission. 1t Is reported also flint
George William Curtis will DO invited to
60 abroad. There was sune talk OF Gen.
tral Hancock Tor Secretary Of War, but it
has died away. He would hardly give up
his present position for four years Of Sec.
retaryship. M .5r.si.t.,'ils-. Lee n ID =
Three names seem pretty certain TO
figure in the Cabinet-BayurJ, Thurman
and Mcdonald. There is little opposition
aud, in Tact, general consent to and desire
TOR the selection nf Senator Bayard as
Secretary Of State. Mcssr,. Thurman and
A!cDonal'l are not 80 Seci,re. The Ohio
dlssenslons are deep and strong. Judge
tluAuly. wo,llu like u portfolio, John r.
Mclean, me young Democratic leader,
wants neither lloaJly nor Thurman in
any position where their power could be
exercised against him. liz is mentioned
as a candidate for Postmaster General,
The talk hclc isthat tins is si,nplys diver
sion to kill ntf Thurman AMI iloa,lly. The
Paynes are not disposed to favor any
ol'io'Aii, 1ut are ienumls all llieirinlluence
to the Whitney movement in New York.
The drift OF opinion among Democrats in
reference 10 Thurman is that he will be in
vited to the Cabinet regardless Of Mclean
and Hoadly. The Indiana nlutter is in
different shape. 1t is generally conceded
that lndiana .uylt to have bureau oIIi-
GER. Ihere is no one thought Of except
Mr. Mcdonald. But the rivalrics OF Indi-
ana politicians have been such that the
Vice. observation-disclosures not desire 10 see
Mr. Mcdonald in Cabinet position. Sem
ator Voorhees,, however. and most of:the
army OF Indiana Democrats who arc hun.
CRY for place at the Government Grill,
would like to SEQ rs many lndianaus high.
ly placed ;ls possible. Hence they arp
pushing the Mcdonald boom to Mr., Hen.
driGks discontinue, for Il geems alto.
gether probable that he will be appointed
TO n portfolio. y slsl ~ 'rr O'''SN 's''s :
Oliver II. Payne, Of Cleveland, treasurer
Of the Standard Oil Com panp. and Colenel

agents, came on from Cleveland yester.
1Iay,. joined William G. Whitney and

well understood that Senator German viii

Mr. Cleveland, during the trials and tribu.
iatlons OF forming his council. lie hus %

nent statesmen with Mr.. Cleveland, lie
took MIR. Hendricks up hy specin| train.
and he sent Mr.. Voorhees, IN ly the nirhi
boat; he went himsclfa second timc with
Mr.. Whitney. There is a story in political
circles that the Democratic National Com.
m!ttee WIS placed dunderspeca obligations
to Mr.. Whitney for money raised
tnpay their expenses. Aside from what
he secured from The payncs, which is
stated to have been Il large sum
te is said TO have been the Intermediary
through which Mr.. Vanderl,ilt's money
flowed To- the Democratic Golfer. Mr.. Van.
derbilt has publicly denied that he made
any contribution to the Democratic Nh.
tional Committee. It is now said that hc
gave tho money through his son.in.law,
Il. Mex. Twomblcy, who passed it throurl,
the handsof Whitney, who is his intimate
friend, their offices adjoining. Thus Mr..
Whitney received credit for raising what
amounted to fully one-llulf The entire
DEMOCRATIC campaign fund. With such
arguments, added to the ordinary ones,
thepollticians say ho is certain to 20 into
the Cabinet. Is TGIj2 = -.
