CLEvELAND's CABINET.
Probable Eject OF the Change ON Of
fee Views or an
OId-Timer.

Correspondence Of the Rochester Sunday
Herald.
Yes. the principal topic of conversa-
tlon here at present is the probable action
of the incoming administration.
The speaker was MIR. William nj. Ash
leY,. of 506 Maine avenue, a man whose
large and intimate acquaintance with
ton, renders his opinion of unusual
weight.
1.-THE all-important question among the
clerks Of the various departments, is who
Is to go. Inmy opinion there will be very
few changes among the old-time em-
ployes who have been here year in and
year-out through several administrations.
The removals will occur among the heads
of departments
stThe sense of distrust which must nee
essariiy pervade the departments is, |
suppose, detrimental to the proper tran
saction of business2"
ssWell, rather, / reckon. 1T units the
clerks for business. Some get very blue,
for they have purchased little homes
which they must sacrifice"
Last summer it was reported that
many were i'll of malaria How is itf"
More likely, Ill of fear of change. i
don't think Washington is 30 very ma
larious. At the same time ] admit that
since residing here, ] have not always felt
L y
troubled with sharp-shooting pains. One
day my right arm and leg would torture
me with pain, there would be great red
ness, heat and swelling of the parts, and
perhaps the next day The left arm and leg
would be similarly affected. Then again
| it would locate in some particular part of
my body and produce tenderness which
would well-nigh drive me frantic. There
would be weeks at time that would be
afflicted with an intermitting kind of
pain that would come on every afternoon
and leave me comparatively free from suf-
fering during the balance of the twenty
| four hours.
''of course you consulted the doctors
regarding your dificulty2"
Consulted them2 Well, should say
did. Some told me | had neuralgia;
others that had inflammatory rheuma-
tism, for which there was no cure"
but didn't they try to relieve your
miseriesa"
"Yes. they yomited and physiced me,
blistered and bled me, plastered and
oiled me, sweat, steamed and every thing
but froze me, but without avail"
''But how did yeu finally recoverf'
II had friend living In Michigan who
had been afflicted in a similar way and
| had been cured. He wrote me regarding
| his recovery and advised me to try the
remedy which cured him. / procured a
L
tablespoonful after each meal and at bed
| time. ! had used it about q week when |
noticed decrease of the soreness of the
joints and general feeling of relief.
/ persevered in its use and finally got so
could move around without limping,
when told my friends that it was War
ner's safe rheumatic cure that had put me
on my feet"
"And do you regard your cure as per.
manenta'
This was more than year ago, the
trouble has not returned, and haven't
been SO we'll in years as am now"
Speaking of President-eleet Cleveland
who in your opinion viii comprise this
,cabinet9'
THAT is as difficult to determine as it is
to say what office-holders win go. Many
good men have been mentioned for the
positions. Bayard, Thurman. Bragg Nc
Clellan, not to mention a lot of lesser
lights. Every prominent politician has s
slate made up which he is backing to win
but then. as is always the case, some one
will get left.
