The International Maritime Confer

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-Assistant Secre-
tary Rives said to-day that the proposed
international maritime conference has been
postponed from April to the end of Sep

that that government will also be fully

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. 21.-President-
elect Harrison is believed to have com
pleted his inaugural address, and the
most interesting gossip was in circula-
! ton to-day among select few to the
effect that in his inaugural the general
. will come out strongly in favor
of the one term idea. The
day was given up to pack
ing and tearing up at the
Harrison household preparatory to NOV
ing to Washington. A gentleman who
is thought to be pretty we'll acquainted
with the president-elect's views on the
New York muddle, said to-day: "Gen.
Harrison fully realizes now that the
only solution of New York affairs
is for him to boldly take the
bull by the horns, and that is what
think he is going to do" The party
which will leave here on the special
train of the president-elect on Monday
afternoon next will number about
twenty persons. Besides Gen. and Mrs.
Harrison, there will be Mr.. and Mrs.
Mckee. their two children and nurse;
Mr.. and Mrs. Russell Harrison; Mrs.
Harrison's sister, Mrs. Scott-Lord; !;
Private Secretary Halford; Stenogra-
pher Tibbtts and wife, and
several specially invited guests.
It is understood = that W. Il.
II. Miller will also be of the party. The

effect that advices received there make

among cabinet g0ssiperS here. The
situation is such, however, that one SO
disposed could pick up new cabinet
list sthourly. Gen. Harrison spent some.
time down town and visited MIR. New

noon. The private car. of Presi-
