Excitement at Galveston.

GALVESTON, Feb. 2O.-This city is
very much excited over the charter
amendment now before the legislature
The amendment, making the LIST OF June

pal election, has created n
breeze, which eliminated in d
street parade and mass meeting to-
nightat Ball square, attended by over
l,Ovl people, az which speeches were
made and the following preamble and
resolution adopted:
WHEREAS, 1t is the sense of the citi.
zens of galveston, in mass meeting as.
sembled, that any attempt to destroy
local ward representation in the selac-
ton OF aldermen would be n violation
Of the rights of local self-govern-
ment, and would, if successful
transfer 10 certain portions of the in,
habitants and localities of the city the
power to dictate who should be alder
men from other parts of the city, which
Capitalization we regard as dangerous,
as well as unprecedented; and
WHEREAS, Other proposed amend
ments seek to vest larger ap
pointive power in tho mayor anC
thereby create "one-nlann power
and also seek to change tn,
time OF election to the summer, when
many of our citizens are absent and Tn,
Change is sought TO be made on the ey,
OF election, which we regard as unjust
and imp olitic, and all Of which we con
denim; therefore be il
Resolved, BY tho cit zens OF Calves
ton in mass meeting assembled, tina
our senators and representative
in the legislature be and ar
hereby requested TO approve th
passage of said amendment as not rep
resenting the wishes of the mass OF on
people and as not offered by them or il
their behalf. The meeting also appointe,
a committee of four TO proceed to Aus
tin TO present the resolution and us
every endeavor TO defeat the amend
ment. This committee will leave in th
morning. A counter petition is il
circulation signed by quite
number of the leading merchant,
Iavoring the passage of the amendment
The hgnt is going to he a strong an,

ALBANY, Feb. 20.-There were visitors
to President elect Cleveland to-day and
1t is understood that he is at work on his
inaugural address and will devote hi,
attention to it exclusively until it Is
finished. 1t is the impression of leading
Democrats acquainted with him and
Mr.. Manning that while the latter has
not been formally rendered the appoint
ment of secretary OF the treasury at the
present moment there is little doubt
that he will be found in that list on
March 4th for the treasury portfolio,
He, according to his friends, has felt
more OF an aversion than inclination to
take any cabinet position, preterring a
less prominent and less responsible posi-
ZION In life, but as Mr., Cleveland has in
degree insisted that Mr.. Manning
snall De one OF his advisers the latter
consents to accept the position.
THE CALLERS CAME LATER.
Frederick o. Prince, of Boston, called
on President Cleveland this afternoon
and had general conversation. The
report that Francis Lynde Stetson has
been dispatched to confer with Senator
Thurman and Col. Villas is authorita-
lively denied. John Il. Devlin, who
dined with Mr.. Cleveland, last evening.
salu TO-DAY that Mr.. Cleveland had not
FULLY decided upon all the members
OF his cabinet yet, but there was
one thing which he believed sure,
and that was that Mr.. Manning would
be the secretary of the treasury. IL is
said to be the fixed intention Of the
president.elect to give the south rep
resentation of three members in the
cabinet, including Senator Bayard. The
other two will come from the roll of
senators, and the choice is understood
to be restricted to Lamar, OF Missis-
sippi; Garland, of Arkansas, and Jack
son, OF Tennessee. 1t is possible that in
addition to Mr.. Manning, New York
may be awarded another cabinet office.

The renewed activity in to-day's mar

changes in the course of prices. The

soon fell OIL slightly. This was quickly
followed, however, by the infusion Of
new life and strength. Before the end
