Colonel Robert G.. Ingersoll was in
Toledo, Ohio, on the I'd instant on railroad
business. At the Body House he wat
asked: "Who In your opinion, is the
strongest man in the Republican party to
run for President in 1882"
"No one can answer this question with
certainty" he said. 'Mr. Sherman will
tell you that the strongest man lives at
Mansfield, Ohio, and Mr.. Blaine will in
sist that the only man with any chance
lives at Augusta, Me. Mr.. Logan prob
ably thinks that the coming man will hail
from Illinois. Allison thinks that be

suspicion that the next President 10 now q

Vermont will furnish the candidate You
see that there are so many opinions that II
is hard for q man not gifted with the spirit
Of prophecy to make even q good guess.
The probability is that a new man will be
nominated. As Lincoln said, ut is hard
to shoot twice with the same powder"
This very question shows the state OF the
public mind, the question is not as to
what policy is to be pursued, what great
reform is to be inaugursted, but what man
is to be the President. Most anybody can
perform the routine duties Of the Presi-
dency and consequently it is not very i'm

President Cleveland is q Civil Service

"How does the strength OF the Mug

have changed, so that there are now less

~ Am not a Prohibitionist; I do not be-

SAN Francisco, Oct. CIV. S. Hobart
OF the mining firm of Hayward q
Hobart, who are said to own a majority Of

the collecting Of assessments, as he feared

deal Of ~unexplored ground In the upper
levels, but no one looks for any great de.
velopments there. The effect on the stock

THE STEWART PROPERTY.
From the New York Tribune.

Mr.. Stewart left an estate valued at
$50, 10000 1t is difficult to ascertain
whether this has increased since his
death. A large part of it was real estate
about 81 900. 900 being represented in the
10000 acres at Garden City, together
with the cathedral and schools. The
Stewart mansion cost about $1,000 900,
with 81 ,000,O additional for furniture
ainting and bric-a-brac with which the
house is filled. Mrs. Stewart used up al
most all her income as she went along, it
is said the bulk of it going to relatives.
The real property now belonging to the
estate embraces the Metropolitan and
Park Avenue hotels in this city and the
Grand Union AZ Saratoga, a block of
buildings each in Bleecker street, de
Pau row, Green and Elm streets, 10000
acres of land at Garden City, and the
house in Thirty-fourth street. Mrs.
Stewart gave to Mrs. Prescott Hall But
Ter the house she lives in at the northeast
corner of Fifth avenue and Thirty-fOurth
street. She gave $4,000 To the llahne-
mann hospital. SurmiScs are rife as to
the disposition of the property which
Mrs. Stewart has made in her will. The
idea of public requests has not apparent
ly lodged deeply in the minds of those
who were near her in advisory relations
and they suggest that the property will
go to the Clinches, the Smiths and their
children. The floors, wanscOting and
stairs of the Stewart house are marble
and the wainscotings are covered with
rich hangings. The first and second
floors are of Carrara marble. The doors
are of rosewood. The sitting-room near
the library on the second floor has been
used by day by Mrs. Stewart; she has
not occupied the bed-chamber of herself
and husband since his death. The bill
liard-roOm on the second floor is distin-
guished by an oil painting of Washington

of American authors. There are paint
