The Richmond brokers received advices
yesterday oi the sale in Baltimore Of
about $4,000 Of Virginia "a, issued under

These prices have been asked for some

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD:
INDIANAPoLIR, January 22.-Genera
Harrison had the usual large number oi
callers to-day.
The sudden departure of J. S. CLARK
son, of Iowa, for Washington yesterday
is looked on with some interest here. A
gentleman, we'll informed, politically
said tonight, that it had been settled for
several weeks that either Senator Allison
or Clarkson would go into the cabinet.
Allison was offered the treasury
portfolio several weeks ago, but pro-
tested that he preferred to remain in the
Senate. An understanding was finally
had that, if the President-elect could see
his way clear to permit Allison to remain
in the Senate, he would invite Clarkson
to seat in the Cabinet. The gentleman
now believes matters have reached a
point where decision has been reached, ,
and that Clarkson's trip East is the result,
as he is vitality interested either way.
TIE gentleman closed by predicting that
within short time it would appear that
Allison was preparing to assume the
Treasury portfolio.
Very little has been heard here about
California's Cabinet prospects, and not a
single prominent Coaster has visited
General Harrison since the election. 1t
is learned, however, that Calitornians
have been earnestly at work. They
have two favorite candidates, Judge M.
NJ. Estee and Hon. John L. Swift, with
Estee in the lead as regards endorsements
and requests that Judge Estee be hon
ored. The following petitions have been
forwarded to the President-elect: From
the State Central Committees of Cali
fornia and Nevada; from the Republi-
can members of the Legislatures of Cali
fornia and Nevada; from the Governors
of both States; from all the Republican
members of Congress from the Pacific
coast; from the State Board OF
fra de of California, fro m the Chief JUS
tice of California, and lastly from over
ninety per cent. of the Republican county
committees of California. From the
unanimity and strength of these petitions
those who are acquainted with the situa-
ton concede the probability of Judge
Estee's appointment. His name is
coupled with the Attorney-Ge -Generalship.

ST.. PAUL, January 22.-The Senate
considered the bribery matter in a secret
session of two hours stormy duration
to-day, and a partial report made to
them comprised charges which
Senator Buckman, in an eloquent
speech, said ''were made by
men whose characters would not
bear very close investigation" Senator
Ward, another strong Sabin man, and a
member of the investigating committee,
announced that both Washburn and
Sabin had been implicated in the charges
made, and he would vote for neither.
The substance of partial report offered
by the committee was that one man
bad been offered good Government po-
sition if he would vote for Sabin.
Another claimed he had been offered
ST. 900 to vote for Washburn, while a
third said the Washburn men gave him
wine until he was 30 drunk he did not
know whether he received any money or
not. The Senate is in executive session
again this evening.
At a quarter before midnight the hear
ing of the report was concluded, the
doors opened, and the Senate proceeded
to vote for a United States Senator.
Senator Daniels nominated General w.
D. Washburn. No nomination was made
by the Democrats, and they refrained
from voting. Several Senators made
brief remarks about the alleged bribery.
A ballot resulted, Washburn "a, L. M.
Wilson 2, Knute Nelson l.. The vote was
completed at 12: :15 and the Senate ad-
iourned.
