CARLISLE WILL ACCEPT.
EE WANTS TO NAME SOME OF HIS

land.
WASHINGTON, Deo Ex-senator Carlisle
will accept the secretaryship OF the treas
ury in MIR. Cleveland's cabinet. Ke is ex-
pected to tell Mr.. Cleveland so within a
short time. He will probably go to New
York to do so, the intimation that he could
have the treasury portfolio If he wanted it,
having been given to him, verbally,
and also for the reason that
he would want to talk with
Mr.. Cleveland. and Mr.. Cleveland would
want 20 talk with him about the other
members of the cabinet. Senator Carlisle
is more intimate with Mr.. Cleveland than
Is any other public man. Mr.. Cleveland
has more confidence in his Judgment than
In that Of any other public man. Whether
Senator Carlisle was going into the cabinet or
not, Mr.. Cleveland would consult him more
frequently and with more confidence than
anybody else. But Senator Carlisle real
lies that for him to give up bis present
place, whicn is comparatively easy and is
practically held by life tenure, to take the
laborious and exacting and vexatious sec
retaryship OF the treasury wall be such q
self-sacrlfce for the sake OF his party and
bis friend Mr.. Cleveland, as to give him al
most right 20 make recommendation as
TO filing the other cabinet places.
WHO CARLISLE WANTS.
For example, it is understood that Mr.
Carlisle would like 60 see his friend, Col.
Willialn R. Morrison in the cabinet with
him and that he has a similar desire In re-
gard TO his friend John Randolph Tucker.
He is also said to think that IL he can make
the sacrifice asked OF him, Mr.. Whitney
ought TO be willing to take the secre-
tnrYship Of state. 1t Is quite pos
sible that Mr.. Carlisle's acceptance
may be conditioned upon the
presence of these gentlemen or others In
the cabinet with him, ana therefore that In
the end it may be withdrawn II they, by
reason of personal unwillingness or other
wise, should not be appointed.
Ii is well understood here that Senator
Carlisle's action with regard to the treasury
portfolio is the pivotal point 10 the cabinet
situation. Unhl MIR. Cleveland has Mr..
Carlisle's definite acceptance or deolination
he will not undertake TO fill the other places.
His desire is TO get Senator Carlisle at the
head of the treasury and then to frame
cabinet which will harmonize with that
fact. Therefore ell the rumors about other
selections are mere speculation.

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-Representative
Dockery of Missouri, member Of the COM
mittee on appropriations, spent some time
at the treasury department to-day eudeav-
oring to ascertain the actual state Of its
available assets. especially the cash In hand.
He wants the information for the use OF the
appropriations committee, which will be
Influenced by it In preparing the sppropria-
ton bills. Among other things he learned
that nearly $l5,o00,000 for pensions have
been drawn from the treasury during the
present month, or st the rate of $3.50. V00, 900
per year. This is way above the appropri-
ations for she year, or the estimates for the
next year, and will force the treasury BAL
Ance for December 81 100000 or 81, ,000, 900

In well during the month, aud will reach a
total of about $4,000 900. Every cent of
the amount, however, goes for pensions,
and the current expenses have to be met

COLUMBIA, s. c.. Dec. 2S.-An editorial
In to-day's Register has got the railroad
men who compose the committee that vis-
tied Gov. Tillman last week, Ia regard to
the railroad bill, hopping mad. It is 1ll
about that damn. which they gave out
that the governor used. The account the
committee prepared said that the governor
remarked that the opposition OF several
thousand railroad men "didn't amount TO a
damn" etc. and was telegraphed in this
correspondence. The editorial says that no
suoh sentence passed the governor's lips and
''it is one Of those balls Of concentrated
journalistic potash, made Of the doubly
distilled lie." The committee will meet to-
morrow and prepare affidavits as TO the
truth Of the interview. aud they declare
they will make 1t hot for somebody. G. X.

Cleveland's Interview Creates a Gen.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.-The senators and
representatives who are still in Washington
found plenty to talk about to-day in the
dispatches from New York. or course the
interview quoting Mr.. Cleveland as opposed
to the election Of Mr.. Murphy to the United
States Senate was the chief topic of CONVEX
sation. Il really created a sensation, for
while 1t was well known that Mr.. Cleve-
land had made similar statements
privately it was not expected
that he would make them publicly. How
ever the boldness and straightfor wardness
of it was recognized as eminently charac-
teristic of Mr.. Cleveland. Opinions diff
fered as to the policy or the effect Of such
an outgfving at this time, but the demo-
Gratis who considered iu impolitic or likely
TO be ineffective, or both, would not say so
for publication. The men who are known
as Cleveland democrats pronounced it just
right and predicted that it would prevent
Mr.. Murpby's election, IL. as they expected,
1t should be- followed up by efficient work
on the part of Mr. Cleveland and his
friends,

Crooked Work Traced to One OF An
AGENTS Employees.
TOPEKA, KAN, Dec. 28.-One day last
week a man presented himself at the coun-
ter Of bank in Holton, and asked for
money on two checks for S4, 100, bearing
the signature of Barnard Kelly, United
States pension agent at Topeka. The cashier
recognized the signature as genuine, but
the amounts we're so large for pension
checks that he was suspicious that all was
not right. He managed to retain posses
sion of the checks, and, as soon as the man
left, telegraphed to Topeka asking Mr..
Kelly If be had issued them. Mr.. Kelly
promptly wired the cashier to hold the
checks and then he began an investigation.
IL is his practice, having over 100, 600 checks
TO sign every quarter, to sign in
blank in advance. Referring to
his check book he discovered
that five signed checks were missing. He
at once suspected an employe in the office
and in an hour he had forced the man to re-
turn three checks which he had not disposed
of. Mr.. Kelly declines to give any par
tioulars of the theft until he has completed
the arrangements for the arrest of all the
parties In the steal.

DALTON NOT TO BE A MA RsHAL.
Emmett Dalton Apt to Escape Trial for
Lack of a Jury.


CoFFEYvILLE. KAN, Dec. 2s.-Emmet
Dalton, although having recovered from
the wounds which he received at the time
the citizens Of this town repelled the attack
on the banks Of the town by the Dalton
gang and killed four members of the band,
has not yet been brought to trial. He has
been indicted for murder but the county
attorneys have had the case postponed until
spring. 1t now seems that Emmett Dalton
cannot be tried. The state, Of course, cannot
take change Of venue TO another
county and Dalton will not. In this county
it will be impossible TO get an unprejudiced
jury and Dalton will probably escape trial
In the same way as did James Brennan,
who killed Small wood In Stevens county
and for whose trial a. impartial jury could
not he Obtained. Following close upon the
appointment Of Bill Dalton, brother of the
noted Dalton boys, as deputy United
States marshal, comes the announce
Lipsy to similar position.
LiDsy was formerly member of the noted
Starr gang, Il rival Of the Dalton gang.
The Starr gang is under command of Henry
starr, who recently shot and killed Deputy
Wilson, while resisting arrest. Lipsy was

bisnop Ireland and his educational ideas
received rather unexpected public support
here yesterday in the form Of series OF
resolutions signed by forty-four priests Of
this city, which were sent to Mgr Satolli.
The precipitating cause OF the preparation
OF the resolutions was the constant assault
ing of Mgr. Satollrs speech on the school

The resolutions were intended originally
10 disclaim all responsibility Of the priests
OF this city for the papers utterances, but
in them the authors took occasion TO
practically declare their adherence to Arch

bault plan.
