WAsIuSqroS, D, O, Feb. q. The Cab
Iinentmakess are puzzled at President
elect oleyeland's delay in Communicating
IItothe Democratic leaders here his inten-
tionreg egarding certain representative DEM
ocratic leaders and places in his Cabinet.
1tis believed that but three appointments
have been finally determined upon, viz:
Bayard, Garland and Lamar, al three
Democratic Senators. The friends Of Sem
ator Mel Donald, after being more or less
anxious for several days, are now quite
angry over the word which reaches them
that aIr. Cleveland is inclined 70 put
Inliana's iayoite- son of with q
foreign mission instead Of giving kim
q Cabinet place. They say that they
do not sec why Mr.. Bayard, who was one
Of Mr.. Cleveland's q competi tors at Chicago,
should Fbe called into the Cabinet, and.
MI. n Donald, another strong competi-
tor, should. be left ont entirely in the cold.
There can be no doubt but the failure TO
give Mr.. McD Donald aplace will ALLEVIATE
from the new President for o while at
least, some of. the most determined and
hide. bound Democrats in the party. It's
conceded on all sides that many Demo
cratic leaders will be grievously disap-
pointed because their wishes have not
been respected, but the shrewdest poll
ticians do not think such disappointment
will be lasting but%ill give way in g very
short time. The talk here is very largely
in fayorof Mr.. Vilas for the War Office,
but there appears to be no substantial
Foundation for the belief other than the
fact that he has been TO Albany and has
talked to the; Preddent-elect. so
( A; hint comes from Albany that Mr..
Manning has not yet'accepted the Treas
ury portfolio, and may not. Some of the
anti i.bank Democrats are opposed to him
because he is the President OF National
bank. 1t is reported tonight that the
Presidentelect Intends Chat the fehabiIt Ita-
ton OF the navy shall be one Of the big
undertakings OF his administration. He
means 10 give that positio 70 a New Eng
land business man. Ex.C Congressman
Frank Jones, Of New Hampshire, and
Congressman Leopold Morse are reported,
to be those between whom he is waVering.;
He is im6rS ind doEbt on this appointment
than concerning any other portfolio.

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. Frederick o.
.Ptince, Of Boston, called on President elect
Cleveland this afternoon and d general
conversation took place. The. report that
Francis Lynde stetsons had been dis
patched to conferwith Senator Thurman
and Col. Villas Is autlioratiyely denied.
J6hnSE. Dsylin, who dined with Gleye-
land last evening says 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 Manning would be Secretary
OF the Treasury. It'is'sa to be the fixed
Intention Of the Preside dent-elect 10 give
the South q representation OF three mem
bers in his cabinet, including Senator Bay
ard. The other two representatives will
come from the circle Of Senators, and the
choice is understood 10 be restricted fvir-
tlally to Lamar, ,Fof Mississippi, Garland,
of Arkansas, and Jackson, Of Tennessee.
IL is possible that in addition to Manning,
New. York Z may be awarded another
Cabinet office.
