SIR. Manning nnd tiie Probability or
Resuming His Post.

by telegraph 20 the Dispatch
WASHINGTON, September 2S.-Al-
though no one in Washington, unless it
be the President, is authorized to speak
for Mr.. Manning on the subject, it is
generally understood that he will soon
resume his duties at the head Of the
Treasury Department. Mr.. Cleveland,
it is said, has received such assurance
from him. When the President asked
the Secretary Of the Treasury to take a
leave of absence and q long rest
before determining whether or not he
would continue in office, the lst of Oc-
tober was by agreement between them
fixed as the day when the question
should be taken up. 1t was not
said that Mr.. Manning must be
prepared to assume the duties of office
on the LIST OF October. He will not
take bis place at the head of the De-
partment on that day, but it is thought
by those who ought to know that he
will be found at his desk as soon as
reasonably cool weather sets in. His
physicians have advised him not to re-
turn to Washington while there is any
possibility OF a hot spell, and he will
follow their advice. When he does re-
turn to his office, it is certain that Mr..
Manning will not undertake to work as
hard as in the past. He will be re-
lieved by his assistants as far as posi-
bic Of merely routine work, and he will
find that the demands upon his strength
will not be as great as formerly.

ed the Convention to order to-day in the

after long debate, and the original
resolution was adopted.
The committee reported adversely on
the second resolution, which was in ef-
feet that Congress should abolish the
tax on cigars.
The report Of the Committee on this
resolution provoked a spirited discus
sion, and the report was finally post
poned indefinitely.
Mr.. Frye offered resolution author
ling tho Association to get up label

Herman, at this time left the chair,
calling in his place David IIirscd. Of
New York. After some debate the re-
solution was lost.
A resolution asking Congress to re-
wise the tax laws was also lost, and
ore abolishing the drummers' tax was
adopted.
A resolution asking for the passage
Of national bankrupt law preferable
TO that known as the Lowell bill was
adopted.
One providing for the establishment
Of an Industrial school for instruction

An amendment favoring the encour-
agement Of the apprenticeship system
was made by Mr.. Oppenheim and car
lied, the original resolution being lost.
A resolution favoring abolishing the
stamp on imported cigars was adopted.
Mr.. Gumpert introduced a resolution
recommending the abolition the use Of
labor-orgsnizatiOn labels, which was
adopted.
An executive committee was ap-
pointed, consisting of Edward Lyman,

York ; K. Nome and Albert Gumpert,
Of Philadelphia Oscar Fuller, OF
Springfield, n. Y; Solomon Roth, Of
