OF Cleveland.
New YORK, Feb. "a special from
Lakewood, n. j., to the Sun says: From
man who is very close to Cleveland
comes the news tonight that Strause is
slated for the Postmaster G Generalship.
The Sun's informant says Cleveland
offered the Postmaster- 6 eneralship to
Struse last night. When the proposition
was made to Strause he ed for time to
consider it. When Strause was asked to-
night by friend if he would be the next
Postmaster 6 General he smiled and walked
away.

that Cleveland acquainted Herbert with
his desire to have him accept the Navy

PROGRAMME OF CONGRESS.
The Present Week Likely to be .
Lively One.

ANO AiSSShb w Stk Likely TO De a
Lively One.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. - Tomorrow
viii mark the beginning of the last four
weeks of the Fifty-second Congress. and
the clash of interests demanding atten-
ton which must inevitably arise from
announcements already made promises
an exceedingly lively legislative week.
The subjects include such important
measures as the bill for the repeal of the
Silver-Purchase Act, the establishment of
National quarantine, the anti-option
bill, and the blll for the establishment of
a general bankrupt law. The probable
tiles favor the conclusion that legislation
upon matters of general public moment
will be accomplished.
The Senate will be almost entirely con-
fined to such bills as the Appropriation
Committee may call UP.
The programme of the House for the
week is fairly well outlined, except as re-
spects the anti-option bill. Hatch, for
reasons of his own, declines to say what
move he intends to made with regard to
it. Hatch has asked for recognition in
orde- to call up the Paddock pure food
bill on Monday, and the Speaker will
give him the opportunity desired. Other
measures most likely to be considered
under suspensions of the rules are the
bill for the admission of Utah, the TORY
bankruptcy bill and the New York
bridge bin. Wednesday is the day named
in the Constitution for the electoral vote.
and Thursday and Friday will be de-
voted to discussion of the clotura and
silver question. 1t cannot be told at this
time whether or not the efforts to force
the silver question to vote will be sue
cessful. The appropriation bills will
monopolize most of the time of the House
not occupied by silver, the electoral
count and suspension of the rules.

SHERMAN SILVER ACT.
Little Likelihood of It's Repeal in the
Senate at This Session.


Senate at This Session.
LAKEWOOD, On. -, Feb. 5.-Congress-
man w. L. Wilson of West Virginia
spent last evening with Cleveland and
Don NJ. Dickinson at the Cleveland cot
tage, and had another long talk with the
President-elect to-day. Wilson. when
asked this evening what were the pros
poets of the silver bill passing both
Houses of Congress before the present
session, said: at depends largely on the
Committee on Rules. If the Committee
reports rule requiring final vote on
the silver bill in a certain time, and the
House decides to vote on the measure,
ain satisfied the bill will pass the House.
In the Senate, however, there is a suffi-
cient minority against the repeal of the
Sherman law to absolutely prevent the
passage of the bill this session. The time
is too short, in my opinion, for repeal
OF the silver law at the present session."
Wilson declined to discuss Cabinet pos
sibilities.
Cleveland remained quietly at his cot
tage all day. He announced this evening
that he will remain here all the coming
week IN order to dispose of several mat
ters of importance.

Miller, well-known druggist, shot him
self twice in the right temple in his
fathers house this morning with re-
volver. Both bullets entered the brain,
but the man fingered nine hours in a
semi-conscious condition, raving at times
in pitiful manner. The recent snow
storm caused business to drop off, and
with each days continuation of the storm
Miller became more despondent. This
morning when he got up he pulled on his
trousers, and on coming down stairs took
revolver and went to the woodshed,
where he fired the bullets into his right
temple. His father and sister came
running to the scene, but he waived
them back, and, placing the muzzle of
the gun within an inch over the wound,
pulled the trigger and fell to the floor be-
fore his father and sisters eyes.
