another Senatorial pilgrim in the person of
Preston 3. Plumb. of Kansas HIS conference
with General Harrison was less than an hour,
and he left at o'clock for Washington In an
interview Senator Plumb said he stopped over
TO have general talk with the President-elect
de was not pressing any name for Cabinet po-
sition. Kansas has no candidate He was in
favor of an extra session of Congress and be-
lieved that party and public necessity would
induce President Harrison to call Congress to-
gelher: he was III favor of vigorous and
early investigation of the eolUred vote in the
South. He thought that Blaine would sit at the
mead OF the new Cabinet.

Cabinet be was equally positive in his OF in
ION tnat Blame would be secretary of State.
VISITOR FROM THE SOUTH
Among the others was Hon. H. A. Hawkins.
OF Tennessee, the late defeated Republican can
didate for Governor of that State. Mr. Hawkins
went into the Southern situation at considerable
length in talking with the President-elect, and
is strenuously in favor of an extra session of
Congress and speedy investigation of what he
terms the "outrages" perpetrated upon Re-
publican voters in Tennessee and other States
at the late election. He says the fraudulent
votes of the counties where the black popula-
ton is largest caused his defeat. The county
officers Instead of selecting the election Judges
and inspectors from the two great parties ap-
pointed none but Democrats. What the Repub-
licans of the South particularly want says Haw-
kins, is national election law that will take the
Presidential and Congressional election ma
chlnery out of the hands of the State Legisla-
lures. He will not state what, if any views
General Harrison expressed on the subject.
