LATEST CABINET GOSSIP.
Mr.. Window, Not Mr.. New, for the Treas.
ury-Blaine Has Not RecOnsidered.

There is no importance to be attached to the
talk of Blaine's reconsidering his acceptance OF
the portfolio of State. He is not contemplate
ing such course. The report was started
upon the assumption that John c. New was
slated for the Treasury. The known relations
between Mr.. Blaine and Mr.. New-or want of
relatiOns-made it seem not at all probable
that they would both sit at the same council
table. But to assume that Mr. New was to be
made Secretary OF the Treasury after Mr..
Blaine had been offered and had accepted
the portfolio of state. was to attribute to Gen.
Harrison want of tact. to say the least There
are very good reasons for believing that ex-
Secretary Window. not Mr.. New. is to be the
Secretary of the Treasury. 1t is said for Mr.
New that he does not want the position. and
that he has so informed Gen. Harrison. More
over, it would hardly be regarded as discreet
to throw the additional confusion into the
situation that would come of discordant ele-
ments in the cabinet. Mr.. Window would be
entirely acceptable to Mr.. Blaine. and per-
sonally is a close friend of Gen. Harrison's 8.
There are reasons to believe that Mr.. Window
has been decided upon. Mr.. Blaine having been
consulted in the matter.
THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
1t is asserted with much positiveness that
the Attorney-General to succeed Garland will
be either Judge Jere. Wilson or John B. Hen
derson.

CAPITOL TOPICS.
THE SAMOAN MATTER.


Owing to the caucus there were no demo-
foreign relations present at the meeting of the
business was disposed of. The Samoan matter.
under Mr.. Saulsbury's resolution requesting
the committee to report an expression of its
opinion as to what should be done by the gov
ernment, was not considered.
THE APPROPRIATION BILLS IN THE SENATE.
The Senate subcommittee on appropriations
in charge of the fortifcation bill had that
measure under consideration again to-day, and
heard General Casey, chief of engineers. 1t is
not expected that any important changes will
be made in the bill as it passed the House, and
at the next meeting of the subcommittee it will
be ready for the full committee to act upon.
Senator Ransom has asked that S25.000 be ap-
propriated for machine guns, musket caliber,
| to be OF American manufacture. Eighteen
amendments were passed yesterday to the sun
dry civil bill and sent to the committee.
Senator Morrill, wants the coal vaults at the
| east end of the capitol provided with power
lift at a cost of $4,000 and Senator Teller de-
sires 81, 900 set aside for the establishment of
a trout breeding pool and house in Lake
county, Colorado.
CLAIMS OF STEEL IMPORTERS.
The Senate committee on claims to-day heard
! delegation of iron mill men in support of a
Dill now pendlng III both houses OF Congress.
The bill proposes to repay the i'm
porters of steels chiefly in the
Allegheny and Mahoning valley districts,
the difference between duty of As per
cent which was collected, and one of 35 per cent
which they claim, a decision of the Supreme
Court holds to be the correct rate of duty. The
| amount involved is about 100000. W. s..
GrOome, of the firm of J. +. Bailey & Co.,
New York; r. T. Downing and II. L. Collins,
of Pittsburg addressed the committee. They
were unable, however. not being lawyers. to
cite the Supreme Court decision upon which
they rest their claim, and a postponement was
had in order to enable them to present it to
the committee.
COURT OF CLAIMS JUDGMENTS.
Acting Secretary of the Treasury Thompson
to-day transmitted to the House of Representa-
tives list of judgments rendered by the Court
of Claims amounting to 524s.S71, which have
been, presented to his department and require
an appropriation for their payment
NOTES.
A number of petitions were introducedin in the
Senate to-day praying for the passage of the
Sunday rest bill. and also for the submittal
to the people of constitutional amendment
prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxi-
eating liquors.

WARNING THE UNITED STATES

of this-voices from the isthmus, from Canada,
from Samoa, from wherever foreign nations
had planted their flags. The attempt to make
it impracticable for American enterprise
to plant itself in foreign countries was too late.
The day had passed. and the time come for a
naughty and dictatorial American policy and
certainly wise American policy This, he
said. is a bold step; no it is not bold. for even
in its present shape it is hesitating. timid-but
in comparison with our past it is a bold step in
this direction of the destiny of the country.
WE ARE CARRYING THE FLAG
into that region of Central America. We are
carrying it with the endorsement of this gov
ernment. We have put ourselves where,
though we may not be pecuniary liable we
shall be morally responsible for the safety and
protection of great American enterprise which
will help to spread our country over the world
1t is a step; it is brave step; and l for one
hope that this step is only prelude to the day
when the nation will follow, and we as peo-
pie will plant our feet on those regions and
when our flag shall wave over the state of Mic
aragua as n state OF the United States of Amer
lea. (Applause).

THE GOSSIP OF LONDON.
The Gerrymanders Capture the Coun-
elisa Female Alderman Chosen.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON, Feb. 6.-The gerrymanders cap
tured the London councils yesterday, after all.
A compact minority of IS carried is aldermen,
while the moderate majority Of 62 scattered
their votes and only elected one. The effect
will probably be bad on home rule, justifying
the belief that the Parnellite majority will
ignore the rights of the minority, and subor-
dinate actual business to hope of extorting
further powers. The London aldermen include
one woman, Miss Cous, the lady who manages
the philanthropic coffee tavern in Music hall,
and who lives in the slums. looking after house
property. She is a remarkable woman. capa-
BILE, intelligent, and the only female alderman
existent
O'Brien's restoration to his clothes and COM
fort is surprise. The regulations were sus-
pended either in Difference to public clamor or
TO the prisoners obstinacy. The excuse of his
ill-health necessitating hospital treatment
causes great Indignation among the liberals.
The response to the national protest is very
hearty. Balfour arrived in town this morning
and will remain till parliament meets.
A crusade, headed by Mrs. Fawcett, against
pantOmime children has been taken up by the
school board. and causes much feeling on both
sides. The philanthropists say the children
are sacrificed to the pleasure of the theater-
goers. The law is clear against the practice.

MIR. BLAINE'S HOME.
He Leases the Seward House for a Term
of Ten Years.

But few people care to dispute the assevera-
ton that Mr.. James Gillespie Blaine will be
the next Secretary of State, and those who do
feel it their duty to say that such will not be
the case have but little testimony with which
to support their views. All the evidence seems
