ho is studying the question III man

still in doubt as TO his action.
The cabinet is seriously divided on
the question, and it can be said with
safety that none OF them have IN
opinion as to his actions which they
hold to with any confidence. The only
things that are announced with any
postiveness are that he Ia anxious to
serve .the southern and western men
who stood by him in the fight against
the Sherman law, aud that he will take
full time for the consideration Of the
question before acting on the bill
The best informed insist that he will
not act until neal the close of the ten

are being made as strong as possible,
AMI he is listening to all that is said
