THEY KNOW ALL ABOUT IT.
The --latest, Most Reliable SpeculatiOns
Regarding the Cabinet.

WASHINGTON, Feb :S.-An impression
prevails in some circles tonight that the
sabinet of the incoming administration is
complete with the exception to be named,
and no further change will be made IN the
Slate as at present arranged.
This is the makeup that receives the
most credence:
Secretary of state-James G. Blaine
Secretary of she reasury--William Win
lom.
Secretary of war-Redfield Proctor.
Secretary of the navy-To be filled.
Secretary of the interior-John +. Swift.
Attorney general-John w. Noble.
Postmaster general-John Wanamaker.
Secretary of observation-disclosures usk.
1t is said tonight that Platt and Miller
are distinctly out of the race and the Platt
men are much annoyed. New York may
get cabinet place, but it depends entirely
upon the temper of her politicians. Gen
eraI Harrison, after hearing great deal
about the situation in the Empire state,
told Mr. Morton that if the Republicans
there without regard to factions or per-
sonal difficulties could unite in recon-
mending some man for cabinet place he
would have generous consideration. II
such harmony can be brought about the
man named will be given the navy port
folio.
Senator Palmer is not believed to be
possibility any longer. In the first place
there was no request for his appointment
by the Republicans of Michigan, and with
out such request it is hardly probable that
with the great pressure for place man
without his state backing would be chosen
except on personal grounds. In the next
place. as General Harrison is reported to
have said to Nebraska men, where state
had presented a candidate for cabinet hon
ors and it had been found ineXpedlent to
put his name on the list, it was hardly to
be expected that a man not so presented
and not so supported should be
chosen. This was taken to dispose OF the
chances of Robert w. Furnas, of Nebraska,
for secretary of agriculture, who had been
suggested when John NJ. Thurston's name
was rubbed off, and would equally well
apply to General Alger and Senator Pal
mer.
THE INAUGURATION PROGRAM.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S-President Cleve-
land and General Harrison have agreed on
this program for inauguration day: After
the ceremonies at the capital the ex-presi-
dent will return to the executive mansion
with the president. After light refresh
ments occupying but few minutes, to
which no guests will be invited, Mr.. Cleve-
land will take leave of Mr. Harrison and
drive TO the residence of Secretary Fair
child, and General Harrison will proceed
to the reviewing stand in front of the
white house to review the inaugural pro-
cession. Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland will not
he present at the inaugural ball. They
will go to New York on Tuesday Or

Monsters for War.

Contracts will be given out in a fe v
weeks for the construction of thirty
twin-screw sea-going gun torpedo boats,
a company having been formed at Phil
adelphia of New Haven, New York and
Philadelphia capitalists, with capital
of $6,000,000, to build and sell these boats
to all nations. DR.. Gatling, of gun fame,
has been selected to take charge of the
construction of both vessels and guns,
and he has selected the shipyards on the
Delaware River as the place for the con
struction of the vessels. .
Each boat will be 1870 feet long, II feet
beam, feet on the water line. with a
displacement of 100 tons and will be
built of steel throughout, and will accord
with the provisions of the circular of
July %, 1888. issued by the United States
Navy. There will be accommodations
for crew of twentythree men on each
boat, and the builders must show over
1000 horse power, with a guaranteed
speed of twenty knots per hour.
The offensive armament will be the
most formidable ever placed on boatof
this type and size. and will consist of
one spar torpedo, one torpedo gun
opening in the stem just above the
water line, as well as Gatling and Hotch-
kiss rapid-tiring guns. There will be in
addition TWO dynamite guns on the
deck, which will be provided with trun-
MONS at the breech and machinery to
elevate the guns instead of remaining
fast, as on the Vesuvius. Any elevation
can be made in minute to reach any
distinct object by working the ma
chinery in the coming tower Ma
chinery will be used to manufacture
compressed air, which will be stored in
reservoirs in the bottom of the vessel for
the use of the guns. The vessels will be
armored with heavy plates of steel.

A Notable Character.

A trio Of noted Confederate Brigadiers,
says the New York Sun, walked up
Pennsylvania avenue this afternoon,
They attracted much attention even
from passefs-by who did not recognize
them. Three finer physical specimens
have seldom, if ever, been seen on the
Avenue, famous for its promenadars.
These three handsome men were Senator
Butler, General Rosser of Virginia, the
friend and classmate of the picturesque
Custer, and General Field, the eX-Door-
keeper of the House of Representatives,
now resident of Washington. General
Butler, although large man, was the
smallest of the distinguished party
Rosser was head and shoulders above
him, and Field could easily look over the
top of the fiery Senators hat, Eacn of
these noted man is an Appollo, straight
as an arrow, and with features as attrae-
tive as his form. Rosser and Field are
free from wounds or physical ailment of
any sort, and Butler SO artfully concealed
the loss of a leg that, as the party strolled
along, he appeared as sound in wind and
limb as his companions. General Rosser
has been here for two days and has not
yet given rein to his nimble tongue.

He Turned the Hose on Them.

Tuesdey night Geo. Solliday, the sher-
if of Washington county, Md, was mott
fed that some of the prisoners confined
in jail We're attempting to break jail.
The Sheriff, with several eonstables, went
to the jail to investigate matters and
found a number of the prisoners in a
state of INSTRUMENTATION. Several of them
had in some way gotten their hobbies off,
and one man, Delaney, charged with
cracking safe, had sawed off the rivets
to the cell door and opened it. The Sher-
if tried to get them back into their cells
when several of them armed with knives
and one with razor, threatened to take
the lives of their unwelcome visitors
The Sheriff finally procured the hose
used at the Jail and turned stream of
water upon the belligerpets and drove
them back into their cells, where they
were locked up, and, as a safeguard, two
officers, armed with muskets, were put on
guard during the night. Several saws
used by the prisoners were found.

For many years l have suffered from
varicose veins. Twelve months ago
struck my leg against chair, ing
one of the veins. The wound thus
made could not be healed except for a
short time; then break out afresh. At

liberated places healed, the swelling
disappeared natural sleep was restored,
and my nervous system composed.

Hatflelds and McCoys.

Mutton, w. VA, Nov 2.-Reports OF
another battle between the Hattields
and McCoys have reached here. Friday
night party of about thirty of the
McCoys came across a Brumfeld camp
in the woods about six miles from Green
Shoals. Both bands were bound for the
headquarters of their respective factions
and were heavily armed.
When the McCoys discovered then
enemies they sent out scouts and discoy-
cred there were about a score in the camp
They crawled through the dense under
brush, and poured in a volley on then
sleeping foes. In an instant the fire
was returned, and the Hat1ields, although
taken by surprise, were so much better
armed than the McCoys, having repeat
ing rifles, that they soon put the attack
ing party to flight.
The one volley fired by the McCoys
did terrible execution Half dozen
men were wounded anG two were slain.
John Brumfield, one of the leaders OF
the faction, was instantly killed. BY
his side lay Owen Brown, the son OF the
woman who was shot in her farmhouse
at Fugg's Creek. Two bullets had gone
through his body. one piercing his heart.
Six other men were wounded, one OF
them, whose name is unknown, being
fatally hurt. After dawn the Hatfields
found Two more dead men, and four des-
perately wounded men We're captured.
Some OF the wounded McCoys must have
been carried off by their friends, for the
trail of their retreat through the woods
was marked by blood stains.
The prisoners captured are Charles
Lambkin. John Cain, - Cain and Pete
Mccoy The names of the dead are I'M
known. The Cain whose first name was
not learned was so badly wounded that
his eaptors left him to die where he lay,
but the other three were compelled to
march to the Hatfield headquarters.
which they reached about noon yester-
day.
As soon as the story of the attack and
capture was told a sort of coart-martial
was held. The prisoners were not al
lowed to speak in their own defense, and
after short deliberation a vote on their
life or death was taken by the entire
Hatfield party The result was unani-
nous, and the three men will be tied to
trees and shot to-day. Nothing can save
them unless the McCoys can defeat the
entire Hatfield party and effect a rescue.
This is not likely, as they are outnum-
bered two to one, and the Hatfields are
better armed. The courier who brought
this news was shot at twice from ambush
while riding through Lincoln county.
