A
 Be In the Cabinet-suggestions As to
 Who Will Be.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 14-President-elect Har- rlson is about the only man in the country now who is not making cabinet suggestions. All the politicians and newspapers are dis cussing MT. Blaines desires and chances, sug- gesting places for other prominent Republi- cans and anticipating a general scramble. All the papers of this city are thcorizing on the subject, and no two are alike. The Press (Rep), which is probably as well informed as any other, owing to its standing in the party, discusses the situation as follows:
 ''James G. Blaine is the material of oak picked up first by most of the cabinet makers, He will not be in the cabinet. It will be satisfactory enough for him, and perhaps satisfactory enough for his friends in and out of the party, to know that he might, if he chose, be the secretary of state Nor is it at all probable that Mir. Blaine will go abroad. He will spend the winter in Wash mgton engaged in building up his private resources and the preparation of another book. It is possible, too, that with Frye or Hale in the cabinet, or out of the country, Mir. Blaine might sit ill the senate. Senator Frye likes his present place well enough; Senator Hale has refused cabinet positions. Perhaps he would prefer an important foreign mission to the humdrum of Washington life; for if Mir. Hale finds it liveler in the capital city than some others do, he could find it lively abroad most likely.
 ''Senator Hawley and Senator Platt art spoken of. They are also pretty comfortable where they arc, Morgan Bulkeley, late can didate for governor, evidently has the stuff Ill him for any high place, and there is Sam Fessenden, long the Republican campa gn executive in the Nutmeg state and the favor ite of a thousand influential friends. War ner Miller has led what many called all along forlorn hope; and whether he ever had doubts or not that he should fail he is the man most i'll the popular eye for a sure port folio-and most commonly for the treasury because of his unquestionable service in be- half of the national ticket
 Senators Evarts and Hiscock, ex-Senator Platt and Cornelius N. Bliss are suggested for the New ! ork member. It is not gener ally believed that Senator Evarts, having held cabinet place already, or that ex. Senator Platt, whose private interests keep him largely occupied, would take portfolios Senator HiScock and Cornelius N Bliss mighi and might not think they could afford to go nto the cabinet
 "Ihere are two men who are as sure as anybody can be of places in the official Oue Is JOuu W andnaker, the other is Gen. Lew Wallace life long friend and biographer of Gen. Harrison. The navy ol war portfolio will be his
 There is little talk about the southern member. Gen. Nathan Golf, of West Vir- ginia, is most spoken of, but his ambition is known to be in the direction of the senate. fhere is a general impression that William CaSsius Goodloe, of Kentucky, would be an efficient and we'll selected cabinet officer.
 There are several big Republicans who are pretty sure not to be in the cabinet Be- sides James G. Blaine there are John Sher- man, Matthew Stanley Quay, Joseph Benson Foraker, William Boyd Allison, John Sulli- Ean Clarkson, William Mckinley, Jr, and Russell Alexander Alger. Senator Sherman has been material for two out of three per. sons who have gone into the cabinet making business, and it has even been predicted that the friends of Governor Foraker would urge the selection of Mr. Sherman in order that the governor might the sooner get to the senate. The best informed take no stock in that. The senator is comfortable where he is, and may retire altogether ill two years.n
 A Herald special from Indianapolis says: Next to John C. New, the Indiana man who. according to such expressions of opinion as may be heard is most likely to be chosen one of the administration advisers, isG Gen, Lew Wallace. His relations to the president elect have been of an intimate nature He wrote the campaign biography of Gen. Harrison. and it is believed that his judgment, as we'll as his experience, is valued by the president elect. If he Is made cabinet minister he will probably be the secretary of war
