MI. BLATNE's CABINET


The names of the new Cabinet have beer
sent to the Senate, and confirmed without
debate. It is a BLAINE Cabinet from
top to bottom, and to parsphrase the
cords Of the late lamented Col. MILLS,
from bottom back to top gain.
1t IS right that it should be. The men
who nominated BENJAMIN HARRISON at
Chicago. When nomination was possible
were BLAINE men. The man who made
possible the nomination Of any candidate
other than himself possible, was JAMES G.
BLAINE. The Influence Of BLAINE's lodi
yiduali,y before the people could not be
as marked az in a mention composed Of
bis blind worshippers, but the great masses
Of the Republican party will not be con-
virced that it was not he who contributed
most to BENJAMIN HARRIsOS's cleo
ton.
No other reward vas so competent for
such services, as the leading portfolio. Bat
BLAINE influence does not end mere. Two
only Of the remaining seven members Of
the Cahinent members have been prcmi-
ueut figures in politics WINDOW AM
RusK are BLAINE men Of the strongest
BLANIAC type.
wANAMAREE is QUAY's reward;
TRACEY is a sop thrown to the PLAT
forces; NOBLE is a weak redemption OF
promises to Southern Republicans. The
two left may be called choices Of Mr..
HARRISON. Taeir selection for Two OF
the least sough. positions represents Mr..
HARRIsoN's influence in the make up Of
bis own Cabinet.
The only strong end united force is the
BLAINE wing. Il commands the sympathy
OF the Republican party more than Mr.
HARRISON does himself lis members
have q higher place in psrty estimation
than any Of their colleagues. The victory
is a victory for Mr.. BLAINE over all oppo-
sition.
It remains TO be seen whether Mr.. HAIR
RIsoN's surrender TO this domination is rs
complete as the Cabinet indicates. vii
LIAM HENRY HARRISON once reminded
Mr CLAY that he wss the President. 1t
does not look like BENJAMIN HARRISON
would ever DO the same to Mr. BLAINE.

judicious efforts have contributed very
much to the preservation of peace and good
order in Oklahoma.
The General was born in New York in

He Joined the Second Dragons, and was in
the cavalry service throughout the war.
The young officer commanded division of

Cavalry he was at the head of the host
which raided the Shenandoah Valley to
Waynesboro early in 1865. His rank at
the close of the war was brevet Major. Gen.
eral of Volunteers, and his brevets from
Major to Major-General were for his dis
tinguished services at Gettysburg, Yellow
Tavern, Hawe's Shop, Winchester and
Fishers Hill, Five Forks and the Apo
mattox Campaign. He reached his Colo
nelcy in the regular army, that of the Fifth
Cavalry, in 1876 In September, 1882, he

PATENT OFFICE DECISION.
Test case to Dismiss Motion for Re-
hearing.

WASHINGTON, May l. Commissioner
Mitchell, of the Patent Office, to-day rem
dered an important decision IN the inter-
ference case of Daniels vs. Morgan, which
involves the question of right Of patent
commissioner to grant the motion for a re-
hearing of the case finally disposed of by
his predecessor, excepting in cases of fraud,
errors in computation or discovery of new
evidence. On March % Commissioner
Hull awarded the priority of an invention
to Morgan, and four days later, on motion
for rehearing, set the rehearing for
April TO- At that time it was only under
stood by him that his successor was to take
charge of the Office April 1. On April 10
the motion came for a rehearing before
Commissioner Mitchell, and the counsel for
Morgan asked that it be dismissed as it
asked for q rehearing of decision of
former commissioner upon the same facts
and evidence upon which the decision was
based, was argued at length and taken un-
der consideration. Commissioner now rules
that the duties of commissioner are in
part administrative and part of a judicial
nature, and while the rule limiting the
right of an administrative officer to review
his predecessors decisions, may be applica-
BILE to him in an administrative capacity,
it is equally clear that it is not binding
upon him in the discharge of his judicial
duties. The motion to dismiss the motion
for rehearing is therefore overruled.

minutes along came a woman in homespun,
fully his age and about as homely. She
had also had long walk. She nodded to
me and sat down on another cotton bale.
Not word was said between US for ten
minutes Then, as the whistle of the train
was heard in the distance, she said to the
man:
"Then, Jim, you ar gwine off ter jine the

"No"
And I'm to be left?"
"Yes.n
"And it won't do no good to argufy?n

"Wall, then, good bye to you"
She started forward with extended arm,
but passed his hand and seized the satchel
and flung it thirty feet away. Then she
grabbed him by the hair and they went
off the platform into mud hole together,
and, as the train moved away, she was on
top, jamming his head into the old gold
soil and saying between the jams

CHICAGO, May Ia meeting of the
stockholders of the North Chicago Rolling
Mill Company and the Union Steel Com
pany for the purpose of consolidating their
interests with those of the Joliet Steel
Company, as has been already outlined in
these dispatches, was held here to-day
Both meetings were brief and at their close
it was stated that nothing definite had
been accomplished and they had to ad-
iourn till tomorrow. The plan by which
this important move in the manufacturing
world is to be accomplished is, in brief, to
increase the capital stock of the North Chi
cago Company to $25 600 900 and the pur-
chase with the money so accruing of the
plants of the other two companies. The
new concern will be known as the illinois

its kind in the world.

The speech recently delivered by Sir
Charles Russell in London before the
special committee sitting in the Times
Parnell inquiry, was historic in its elo-
quence, ranking with the greatest orations.
The man who delivered it, Sir Charles
Russell, is an Irishman. He was born at
Newry, in the year 1888, and was educated
to the learned profession of the law. In
1872 he had risen to the rank of Queens
Counsel. He was elected a member of the
house of commons in 1880, and was made
attorney general in 1886. With the next
advent of the Liberals to power there ia
more than the possibility that Sir Charles
Russell will become lord chancellor, and as
such member of the cabinet.

VNEN YOUNG LADIES with large feet to
i travel; call from 1 to 3. FRANK KING,
225 Washington boulevard.
In response to the above ad Morn
ing Neus reporter called at 225 Washington
boulevard yesterday afternoon. On arriy-
ing at room on the third floor babel of
female voices was the first thing to attract
attention. An instant later mans voice
said:
"Please lift your foot and let me measure
it. Not quite IL inches. Pm sorry, miss,
but that is hardly large enough"
Pushing open the door the reporter found
himself in the presence of eight young
ladies, most of whom could claim more
than an average share of good looks. With
few words of regret the rejected appli-
cant passed from the room as another en-
tered. The newcomer gave her name as
Maud Dennis, and Bridgeport as her resi-
dence. Maud was winner as soon as her
feet hove into sight. Mr.. King
at once said: You'll do" The
measure was produced and Maud blush
inches long She was informed that for $40
week and all her expenses paid she
would be expected to sit in the curiO halls
OF various museums IOI d pcTlOu VI clRnt
weeks, commencing next Sunday, and ex-
hibit her generously developed feet to the
wondering masses.
Mr.. King said he found great difficulty,
even in Chicago, in finding ladies sufi-
ciently "heeled" for his galaxy of big
footed beauties" They must be good look
ing as we'll as qualified to fill big shoes
Consequently, although he had advertised for
ten, he really wanted but eight. He had
received dozens of applicants who did not
fill the bill. Those he had secured were
Lizzie Melville, of Bloomington, ILL.,. foot
129 inches; Matte Mayhem, of Lake View
foot III inches; Volina Welted, Of
Nashville, Tenn, foot IA inches;
Naomi Fairchild. of Chicago, foot
134 inches; Maud Dennis of Bridgeport,
foot 124 inches, and Birdie McCallum, a
very pretty girl from South Chicago, foot
III inches. Mr.. King organized the In.
diana broom brigade which has been doing
the museums for some time. He acted as
captain until jealous member of his corps
turned the broom handle against her Off
Ger and gave him an unmerciful drubbing,
which necessitated call for the police.
