Hoosier S.ate-Cheers and Hand Shakes for Both-Judge Woods Cabinet. INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 1S.-The vice presi- dent-elect and Mrs. Morton reached the city last evening and are the guests of Gen and Mrs Harrscn. They came unattended, save by servants, in Chauncey M. Depew's private car. The first stopping place within the borders of the state of any consequence was at Muncie.
 Here they were met by Will D. Roberts, private secretary to Governor Hovey, and several newspaper representatives. MT. Roberts informed Mir. Morton that crowd had clustered about the train anxious to greet him. The vice president-elect then stepped to the rear platform and was re- ceived with great cheering, to which he responded:
 II am glad to meet you, and I'm glad to be in Indiana"
 An old farmer shouted, II want to shake hands," an,. Mr. Morton responded:
 "I shal be very much pleased" and ex- tended his hand
 Mrs. Morton was attracted by the recep- tion accorded her husband, and as she ap- peared upon the platform she was given round of cheers. She also indulged in hand shaking and was exceedingly gracious.
 Both laughed heartily when some one called out: "Whats the matter with Levii" To which hundred voices respondeds "He's all right" making similar answer when the same voice again called: Whats the matter with Mrs. Morton"
 Several attempts have been made to draw from MT. Morton expressions bearing upon the political situation, but he parried them very adroitly, and throughout showed him. self an adept in diplomatic evasion.
 During the day a committee. headed by the mayor, appointed to arrange pub lie reception, which will be held Friday in the state capitol When the train arrived Mr. and Mrs. Morton were at once consigned to the care of Gen. Harrison's private secre- tary, Mir. Halford, and were driven hastily to the Harrison homestead, where they were met by the general at the open door and were shown to the parlors, where Mrs. Har- rison awaited her guests.
 The welcoming was cordial in the extreme the meeting between Gen. Harrison and the vice president-elect being like the coming to- gether of old friends. Dinner was served in short time and Mr. and Mrs. Morton were the only guests. The remainder of the even ing was spent in conversation.
 MT. Morton said last night that the dura- tion of their stay was uncertain. They came flor a few days" and that was all they could say Their will wait for them here. MT. MOIlOu NttS dShSu IO SINc tilS puTpOSS of his visit
 Ut is" he replied, ''purely a social affair. | There is no politics about it. Mrs. Morton and myself have intended to pay the visit for | long time We wanted to come during the campaign, but circumstances prevented it. It is purely an accident our coming at the same time as MT. Quay"
 He was told that it had been asserted that he came to urge upon Gen. Harrison certain action in regard to cabinet appointments. ''I know" he said, that there is a general idea that am going to urge upon Gen. Har- rison the appointment of a certain person or persons as members of his cabinet. That is entirely erroneous"
 There seems to be some mystery about Senator Quays visit. That he was expected was shown by the fact that Attorney Gen. eral Kitchener, who usually looks out for political visitors to the president-elect, in quired for him at the hotel, and then went to the railroad station and waited for four trains upon which Quay might come. Mr. Kitchener didn't say why he expected Mr. Quay, but he admitted that he was disap pointed by his non-arrival.
 By far the most authoritative statement o1 the membership of Gen. Harrison's cabinet was made by Judge Woods, of the United States district court for Indiana, He helc court at Fort Wayne. It was on account oi this term of court that Judge Woods dls missed the grand jury, which was here in vestigating the election fl auds last Saturday until next Monday. The session at For Wayne lasted just four hours, and there wa only one case for trial After court had beer adjourned Judge Woods whiled away tn, time talking with a few intimate friends The question of the attorney generalship wa brought up. Judge Woods said he did no want the position and after some more con yersation made the following predictions,
 .'I believe that this will be the cabinet , Secretary of state, James G. Blaine; secretar, of the treasury, Senator Allison; secretar, of war, Gen. Alger; secretary of the navy Nathan Golf, Jr, of West Virginia; secretar, } of the interior, John s. Swift, of California postmaster general, Gen. William Mahonc
