THAT INTERVIEW.
1t Causes Some Excitement Among the
POliticians-Cabinet Gossip.

1t Causes Some Excitement Among the
Politicians-Cabinet Gossip.
The publication this morning of alleged
interview with Mr.. Cleveland, in which he
makes public his opposition to Mr.. MUIR
phys election to the United States Sem
ate. has caIsed considerable talk among
politicians in Washington. The interview
as an authorized expression Of Cleveland's
views, though it is very well known that be
does not favor Mr.. Murphy's election, has
caused surprise. 1t was no. thought that Mr..
Cleveland would SO frankly express himself on
the subject. That he opposes Murphy, sane
tions the activity of some of his friends in the
opposition and would like to see Murphy de-
feated has been very generally understood but
his closest friends here have not thought that
be would take part personally in the contest
Politicians here do not believe that Mr.. Murphy
can be defeated and they believe that Mr.
Cleveland appreciates the fact Hill aud his
friends declare with absolute confidence that
Murphy will be elected and there is verv
strong intimation that il Mr.. Cleveland fights
him openly it will only make things a little
more dsagreeable during the new administra-
ton.
At present Mr.. Cleveland has no personal
representative in the Senate who is long ex-
periepced and in q position to act as leader
Should he succeed in the election Of a personal
friend from New York il would not improve the
situation greatly, as no new man, however capa-
BILE, can figure very prominently in that body.
Mr.. Cleveland will. however, have a strong
personal friend in the Senate by the time the
fifty-third Congress will be organized unless
al present plans miscarry. This viii be Mr.
Bayard Of Delaware, in all probability. 1t is
expected that Senator Gray will 60 into the
cabinet, though he is at present disinclined TO
do 30. His retirement from the senate will
mean the election Of Mr.. Bayard-
It is reported today that the question of Mr..
Dickinson going into the cabinet has been set
tied and that he will be Secretary of State. The
slate thus far made up is said to be Dickinson.
Secretary Of State; Carlisle, Secretary OF the
Treasury; Gray Of Delaware, Attorney General;
Lamont, Secretary Of the Navy, and Morrison,
Secretary of the Interior.

The stsry Of = PIutserat whs spoke

Did Won ever hear of Dives, who lived In Pales-
tine?
\ marvellous rich man was he, we'll clothed in
superine,
His table groaned with wealth of food, his
wines by gallons ran
Nc wonder he grew sleek and stout, just like an
Alderman
Another man named Lazarus, homeless and
sick and poor,
In hopes to beg the rich mans crumbs, lay at
the rich mans door.
He heard the sounds OF mirth within, but not q
friend had he,
Except the dogs, that licked his sores In silent
sympathy.
You'll think it stran ge that such u thing
could happen here below,
Eut this was in a far-on land-a long,
long while ago.
Now Dives daily Toasted and was gorgeOusly
arraycd,
Not at all because he likedit. but because twas
good for trade,
That the people might have calico he clothed
himself in silk,
And SUBJECTED himself on ere am that they might
get the milk.
lie fed five hundred servants that the pool
night not lack bread.
And had his vessels made Of gold that they
might get more lead;
And. e'en to show his sympathy with the de-
serving poor.
He did no useful work himself that they might
do the more.
You'll think this very, very strange; but
then Of course you know
Twas In a far-on cOuntry-and a long,
long while ago.
Poor Lazarus at length became too weak with
death to strive
He evidently was not one of the fittest to sur
So on one frosty night, about q quarter past
eleven,
went to heaven.
Now Dives, too, was waxing old, and presently
fell i'll,
Wherein a lawyer was called in to make a
mighty will;
And when DIVES sons and daughters camc to
hear his last farewell,
He bsde them follow in his steps, then died
AID went to hell.
don't think God would venture now TO
treat a rich man SO.
But this was such a long way on, and so
very long ago!

Anaihar Saaod Citizen done.

John Beck died at the Franklin
House in this city May 4th, 1892,
aged sixty-five years. The deceased
has been in poor health for more
than q wear but he did not take to
his bed till a few days ago, but when
he did t Ike bad sick death soon re-
lieved him of his suffering.
John Beck had b,en a citizen Of
this city for more than twenty-five
years and during all that time he
lived n life that made him honored
aud respected by all. lie was q man
of intelligence as well as a man Of
worth, and while he leaves NO rela-
tives here to mourn his taking OF,
many hearts were made sad at the
announcement OF his death. We
know nothing of the early lie OF
John Beck but we know that he re-
ceived careful training from good
people, for his many noble traits of
character attested that. lie was hon.
est. honorable, kind-hearted and char
liable. and may his memory live long
with the people Of this city.

TO nav the hundred dollars and saws
