The appointments OF Mr.. Clarluon secures TO the
postoface Department the services Of man OF
conspicuous ability. His appointments Is due 20
the efforts Of Senator Allison. A month aso Mr.
Clarksou was a candidate for the Secretaryship oz
the Interior. and later ON 1t was thought thss he
might enter the Cabinet as Secretary Of Asricult-
ure. but as Senator Allison had previously declined
the Treasury portfolio, and this offer was gerer-
ally considered to have been regarded by Presi-
dent Harrison as sufficient recognition Of the
claims Of the State Of Iowa. Mr.. CArkson's cam
didacy was to some extent handicapped. There
is some vague rumor tonight that Mr.. Chrkscu
is TO succeed Mr.. wanamaker, should the inter
retire from the Postofice, but there is no founda-
ton except snch as the imagination OF the aver
age political gossipper may furnish. President
Harrison, certainly, has not for a single moment
considered the possibility Of Mr. Wanamakers NJ
