Gresham the Man.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10-There is q
general belief here now that the rumored
appointment of Judge Gresham as secre'
tary of state will prove fact. In con
nechon with it is coupled the statement
that during Mr.. Cleveland's term he ex-
poets to have one or more supreme court
vacancies to fill, and that Gresham will
be placed on the supreme bench. By
that time the BehriDg sea matter will
be adjusted, and Cleveland can then fol-
low h,s first inclinatlons and make E. j.
Phelps, of Vermont, secretary OF state
1t is generally understood among Re-
pubicans that Harrison named Judge
Jackson for the supreme bench in order
to prevent Cleveland from gi ing the
place TO Gresham. United States sena~
tors of both side s were questioned today
as to whether Gresham could be con
firmeG, and 1t developed that he would
probably be. The Republicans would
not feel like extending Harrlson's fight
against Gresham, and Cleveland has
enough men on the Democratic side to
make the confirmation sure. The SEEM
lngiy sure cabinet plans now are: Gresh
am for secretary of state or attorney
general; C,rIisle, treasury; Lamont, war.
and Hoke, of Georgia, for the interior de
partment, the last beng at the request of
Henry Willard. There is also authorit y
for saying that Willard has already been
promise d the German mission.

Accident In a Quarry.

RUTLAND, VT, Feb. 11-One of the
worst d sas .ers in the history of marble
uuarryipg occurred at West Rutland lit
tie after 1 o'clock this afternoon in the
quarry operated by the Vermont Marble
Company. A great mass of stone fell
into the quarry, and seven men were in
stsntly killed and number of others Sc
riously wounded. The victims were
crushed so that some could not be rec
ognized. The killed and injured were {:
Killed-Willlam Lukes, Frank Sulig,
Edward Powers. Alexander Blumquist
and three uprecognized men.
Injured-James Docley, John Dunn,
Charles Anderson, Fred Marchand, Anto
Ractio, John @. Anderson, Peter Grenier,
John Michian, Michael Cupps.
So soon as the accident happened an
electric danger signal was rung IN at the
compauy's offices and the mills and work
everywhere ssopped at once. All the
doctors in west Rutland and Rutland
were called by telephone and responded
quickly. Scores of men were also sent
down to the quarry. Soon the news
spread to the streets, and hundreds of
men, women and children hurried to the
quarry, and oy o'clock the vicinity was
crowded In the crowd were many rel
atives of the dead or injured men, and
they were frantic with gref. The scci
dent was near the extreme end of the
quarry, far under the hill. The killed
and some of the injured were buried un
der tons of rock, and the work of rescue
is necessarily difficult The cause of the
cavlug-ln is no. positively known. E.
B. Morse, treasurer of the company, said
the cause was not certain, though the
''scale" or part of the roof that fell was
probably loosened by freezing.

Came Here In the Fortles.

= VANCOUVER, Wash, Feb. 11-Mrs.
Catherine Petrain, the widow of Judge
Joseph Petrain, died here last night of
consumption, aged go. Her husband
came here in November. 1886, from St.
David's, Canada. The deceased was born
in Meath county, Ireland, her parents
emigrating to Oregon in 1874, overland.
She was married the day the act establish
ing Oregon territory was approved by the
president, August IA, 1s48, in the old
chapel built on the reservation by priests
sent out in 1888 by Bishop Quebec. She
resided here continuously ever since, rails
ing large family of children, eight of
whom are living, Charles A. Petrain, the
attorney of Portland, and Mrs. Bloom
field, wife OF Judge Bloomfield, of Van
couver, being among them. She was one
of the oldest pioneers In the state. The
remains will be inferred Monday at 10 A.

The shadow OF a Plague.

LONDON Feb. ia From St. Peters
burg comes the news that 10 persons
have died of cholera. With the cessation
of frost the Marseilles- people are trying
hard to cover up their dead and to quiet
the fears of the living. But the worst of
all, as directly affecting America, is the
news from Hamburg. Ia the suburb of
Altona prisoner in Jail has just died,
and five other cases are being closely
watched. The port of Hamburg itself is
allowed to escape. On board the steam
ers Esco and Australia four sailors were
stricken with the disease The weather
Is moderating all over the continent, and
the warm sunshine is bringing back to
life the cholera germs. Meanwhile,
Vienna is sending the invitations to all
the nations TO an International health
congress to formulate some plan of
fighting the common foe. In England,
Southampton IS begging parliament TO
vote money to keep up the rigld quaran
tine.

Wi Not volunteer Further Aid.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE local banks
will not volunteer further aid to the
treasury, and will do so reluctantly On re-
quest. Many banks, which have thus far
contributed aid, concur in the principle
laid down by the banks which held aloof
The latter say they will turn gold into
the sub treasury as mem bers of the clear

hold that the clearinghouse should act
as whole; that assessments should be
levied on the banks on a basis of their
gold holdings. 1t was generally under
