MILWAUKEE, Nov. 27.-The Journal
this evening says: Ihe republican poll
ticians discussed in whispers this morn
ing the why and wherefore Of the confer
ence of the Wisconsin bosses at the Grand
Pacific hotel, Caic2go, today. Among
those present were Senator Spooner, Geo.
C. Ginty aid Henry G. Payne, chairman
of th5 Republican state committee. 1t
was also said that Gov. Rusk was there,
but this statement could net be confirm
ed in Milwaukee. The governor has
been in Chicago this week, and met
some of the bosses, but it Ia not known
positively that he attended the confer
ence today. His trip TO the Garden City
is said to ba one CT the results of Horace
Rublee's recent trip TO Madison.
The object of the Chicago meeting is
reported 10 be to arrange for q united
assault on President Harrison to induce
him to give Wisconsin, a place in the
cabinet. The place which the bosses
want is the postmaster generalship, and
the candidate is Payne. Spooncr has
favored Risk, and the governor has de-
veloped much moro strength than Payne,
notwithstanding all the organs and the
hustlers have been booming the
latter. This is the amusing
feature of the contest. With
all the party machinery in their hands,
the bosses round they could not kill eff
the Rusk boom, which attracted more and
more attention IN Wisconsin and III the
east. With the governor iu the field,
there was nothing for Payne. What they
could not Go by force, lhey then resolved
to attempt to DO by persuasion, hence
Rublee's vieis 20 Madison, aud other
schemes to have the governor withdraw
and content himself with foreign mis-
sion. What Rusk's future course
will be will depend largely upon
the outcome OF tc-day's conference. 1t
is known that he would like TO be secre-
tary of war, but he does not wish TO get
into a rog with the bosses. He is not
nearly SO strong and energetic as he vas
ten years ago, ard will surrender easier
now than he would ct that time.
Even if Rusk gets out of the Gay, it
will still ba a question whether Payne
can be forced INTO q cabinet ef1ice. Many
republicans think that he cannot, and
that if Rusk is not pushed for the war
office Wisconsin will get no representa-
tive in the cabinet.

MORE ABOUT THE DIStSTER.
Wreckage on the ShOre-Iht Vessels Signals
Heard-Damage on shore.

Heard-Damage Oh Shore.
CoHAssET, Nov. 27.-Al day long
wreckage OF various descrip ions has
been coming ashore along the beaches,
more particular at Sand Cove. Huge
timbers, spare, cabin furniture, fine in
side furnishings, chairs, life proservers
and other articles appertaining TO the
steamers outfit, many of them stamped
ALLENTOWN" have been seen in
the breakers off the shore and found scat
tered along the water front. This
wreckage tells too plainly that the line
iron steamer Allentown has been broken
up on one of the huge sunken ledges off
this port, which have always been ter
ror to the mariners. Capt. Nathaniel w.
Treat, one of Cohasset's old
est sea faring men, and from whom
the frat intimation OF the disaster came,
said in his opinion that the vessel had
founGered, either on the sea ledges or on
the gram pus, which are long sunken
ledges lying about three miles from the
nearest point of the main land. If such
is the case, she vessel tnust have gone
down with all on board within very few
minutes after striking. Since the early
reports Of the supposed catastrophe
many Of the villagers have been seen,
and they say that they distinctly
heard the steamers whistle shortly
after noon on Sunday, repeated at brief
intervals for an hour or more as if sig
Mailing for assistance, Or pilot. It was
so thick at the time that nothing could
be seen at SO great dis
tance from shore, and even If
any observation could have been made
no boat could have lived in the sea
then prevailing. The schooner La Samoa,
before reported as stranded on Pleasant
Beach, has gone to pieces. Her deck was
lifted clear Off the vessel and piled in a
confused mass on the beach beside the
hull of another schooner.
The summer cottages and similar
structures on the water front are wreck
cd, and their ruins line the beeches.
Many of the beautiful drives to the sum
mer residences are washed away or badly
quilted, and covered with the greckage.
The greatest damage to the land prop
erty is along Crescent beach between
Green hill and Gun rock. Along this stretch
is line of from 20 to 80 small cottages,
averaging in size 20 by 40 feet. There is
not a single one of these that does not
bear marks of the terrible force of the
storm. Some of them were lifted from
their foundations and carried back sew
eral feet. The total loss to
property or this beach will
reach man, thousands of dollars.
At the Hotel Nsntasket, the covered prom
enade connecting it with the Rockland d
cafe, YVES partially destroyed blythe wind.
The road6ed of the Nantasket beach
branch of the Old Colony raiIrod is en-
tirely vaEhed cut from the Hotel Stand
ish to point half mile northwest of
the Ocean house. The wrecked brig Alice
is rapidly breaking up and has been
stripped of everything portable.
