Are Pulling Together for Harmony.
 What Is MT. Evart's Future? - Gen.
 Harrison to Visit New York.
 NEW YORK Nov 15-The Press says: The news comes to this city, in semi official way, that Gen. Harrison has determined to invite MT. Blaine to seat i'll his cabinet, and that the Maine statesman Will accept. Of course, the state department Is the one offered him. The reason that has prompted the president-elect to this action, aside from his high regard for MT. Blaine's abilities and experience, is that all of his predecessors have invariably rendered the state portfolio to recognized leader &l the party. Senator Sherman and Mir Blaine are the only men who could be placed in this rank, and Gen. Harrison has chosen the latter. This can be stated positively on the authority of a gen tleman who is closely associated both With Gen. Harrison and Mir. Blaine The latter is expected in this city within week.
 The famous dinner party which MT. Depew arranged on the eve of the Chicago conven- tion promises to find its duplicate, so far as results are concerned, ill a series of confer ences now in progress here, with Warner Miller, Chauncey Depew, Senator Hlscock and eX-Senator Platt the participants. Everybody will recall the Depew dinner to New Works seventy-two del lsates, and how they all left the festive board spelling har- mony with a tremendously big H. From that day to this there have been no Platt men, nor Miller men. nor Depew men. All Republicans have been Harrison men, and victory has rewarded their united effort The motto still is pull together"
 This is the secret of the meetings which the ''big fourn have been holding under the Fifth Avenue roof the last day or two, and the re- suit of their interchange of thought and opinion will largely determine the attitude of the Empire state toward men and meas ures under the Harrison administration. There has never been a time in the history ot the party in this state when every Republi- can felt such a settled determination to'get along without factional troubles. The feel ing Is overwhelming that Gen. Harrison | administration shall have united party be- l hind it in this state
 1 The first evidence of this is found in these conferences, which, it is whispered-perhaps 1 miStakenly-are the result of a suggestion | from Gen. Harrison himself. Gen. Harrison 1 is coming on here himself early next month for this purpose Men from all parts of the nation will be here also to meet him, and tc urge the claims of their individual states fol places in his cabinet. He knows nearly al the leaders of his party, and has no pledges to redeem to any of them He wants to get 1 their judgment however, and while he has s mind of his own, and will undoubtedly eXer else it, he does not propose to make his de cisons until he has had careful survey o1 the field
 Hence the present conferences here. The 1 New York men are getting themselves into position It is said that they telegrapheC Gen. Harrison last night fixing,a date for tho meeting here, but they are keeping the secre r. %lx>l that New York will present the name O i Warner Miller as its candidate for the treas ury portfolio. MT. Miller would rather re sume his old place in the senate. Our owl Evarts now occupies that place. His tern expires three years hence. He wants to lay down the lines of his long public career afte that, but he is not anxious to do so before.
 Senator Evarts and Chauncey Depew hav been comparing notes together up in tn
 Grand Central station every day this week What if the senior senator would resign hi seat to accept the English mission? The stor, telegraphed here from Washington that h would be transferred to the supreme cour
 bench cannot be true, because Mr. Evarts too far advanced in years for that position The cabinet is no longer a temptation to tn
 veteran statesman, and it may be that h would look with favor on the highest diplC
 matic post in the gift of the nation.
 There are not enough people i'll the secre
 yet to get at the full meaning of the frequen
 meetings of the two senators, two ex-senator
 and Mir Depew That it affects the futur
 of Warner Miller and Senators Evarts ther
 can be no doubt. If the latter would like t
 go abroad Mr Miller will succeed him, an
 New York will have another candidate fo the cabinet.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 15.-The latest bit c cabinet gossip connects Senator Sabin, C Minnesota, with the administration. It is re
 ported that he has declined to be a candidat
 for reelection to the senate, after havin
 prepared the way for his return. Even 8 late as week ago, it is said, he was Iookin : after the Minnesota legislators whose vote l he might desire, and he had succeeded in gel } ting pledges from more than half of then l The only explanation for his change of min } is that he has been given an intimation tha there is a higher position awaiting him, an } that it would be just as well to let som other worthy man go to the senate. I'll 3 gossip does not come from Minneapolis, bu 7 is of foreign manufacture. It is said NJ l Sabin will be in Indianapolis shortly, br there are no indications that his visit is c s invitation. When in the senate Senator
 Sabin and Harrison were good friends Oak View for Sale.
