LAKEWOOD, n. j., Feb. 17.-Mr. C!eve-
land remained at home all day and had
no callers of political prominence. He is
not yet ready to announce the names of
the men who will be secretary of the
navy. secretary of agriculture and attor-
ney general. The candidates who were
supposed to have the best chances for
the three positions are Congressman
Hilary A. Herbert, Ex-Governor Francis,
of Missouri, x-Solicitor-General jerks.
of Philadelphia. The selection of Hoke
Smith, of Georgia. and Senator Carlisle,
of Kentucky, is however, said to weaken
the chances OF Hilary A. Herbert, for the
reason that he would make the third
Southern man, while New England and
the far West would go unrepresented.
There is no certainty. however, that Mr..
Cleveland will regard the geogra phical
lines in the selection of his Cabinet.
Chairman Harritv has notified the
members of the National Democratic

WAsnINGToN, ID. c., Feb. 17.-Iu the
House today the car coupler" bill was
postponed for further consideration until
Tuesday next. The House narrowly cs-
capped an exciting scene. Mr.. johnson,
Republican, Indiana, called the a ttention
of the Speaker to what he thought was
misapprehension on the part of the
chair in one of his statements. Johnson
was aggressive in his manner and in his
speech, but at the direction of the Speak
er he rather ungraciously took his seat
and the House resumed consideration of
the pension appropriation bill.
The house committee on banking and
currency met this morning. The bills
referred to the committee and not acted
upon were gone over and it was practi-
cally decided that it was useless to con-
slider and report any of them owing to
the shortness of the session and the pres
sure of other business in the house. AT
ter reviewing the pending bill the re-
mainder of the session will be devoted to
an informal discussion of the silver qucs-
ton and the financial condition of the
country.
Senator Sherman has offered i'll the
Senate his bond issue amendment to the
sundry civil appropriation bill and it
was debated this afternoon.

president of the State Alliance, as well as
its secretary and business agent, being
extreme members of that party. A re-

| Most of the fund was contributed by
persons not now Alliance men.
