according TO both HE friends and enemies in
washington, f. sulking in HE tent. He had .
large number OF callers to-day, many OF whom
desired 10 consult with him about the political
animation. some of these visitors had their
wishes Rratlhed, but others did not succeed in
.et,inQ any nearer the Presidents sanctum than
private Secretary Thurber's room. OF the lat
ter class was Senator Faulkner OF West vir-
ainia, Chairman Of the Democratic Congress
.ional Committee. He called Just at the con-
olusion Of the Cabinet meeting, and during
formal conference between the President and
secretary Lamont and Postmaster-GeneralB Bis
sell ON the situation In New York. Mr.. Faulkner,
who was plainly disappointed at not getting tho
presideut's ear was asked 70 call again at =
more convenient time.
prof Wilson of West Virginia was also an
anxious caller. and his business was SO urgens
that he succeeded In getting personal inter-
view with the President. Mr.. Wilson had moth
ing 10 say for publication after his visit, but 10
IL understood that he made strong appeal for
Administration assistancs In his tight for re-
election. It must have been very pressing
errand indeed that would cause Mr.. Wilson TO
break his West virginia engagements and alb
sen, himself even for day from the tour Of car
end speechmakinr which he is managing in
company with Bourke Cochran and John X.
Coyen, Democratic candidate for Congress in
Baltimore.
Il was after g o'clock when the New York
members Of the Cabinet left the White House,
and both declined to say anything at all about
the subject Of their conversation with the Presi-
dent. Col Lamont was a. smiling rs usualin
declining TO talk. while the Postmaster-General
looked ~ important and solemn as he always
does. There is no doubt, whatever, that the trio
discussed the general situation In Now York
State, with particular reference to the indigna-
ton caused by the Presidents neglect TO remain
in New York 20 register. or TO lift his voice or

A few days ago II was positively learned that he
was anxious 70 mako speech. and that he had
begun its preparation. Afterward Il was given
out that he would like 30 consult the President
upon the subject before deciding. Mr.. Carlisle
aid not talk to Mr.. Cleveland on this subject
this morning. but will do 90 during the next few
hours and u will then be known whether the
President will allow . Cabinet Minister even to
help along the cause Of tho Democracy in Now
York State. II the Secrytary Of the Treasury IL
permitted TO make his New York city address
u will probably not bs delivered before tho
latter part Of next week, - the Secretary
must remain In Washington until Wednesday
at least 10 attend the wedding OF the daughter
Of Col. Phil Thompson Of Kentucky, which
takes place Al the Carlisls residence on tho
evening OF that day. The Secretary has already
decided 10 make Q speech at the Chamber of
Commerce banquet In the latter part of Novem-
Der, but that engagemsn emit OF coufse, viii not in
terfere In any way with his deeire TO make
political speech before election day.
IL II learned tonight that at the Cabinet
meeting to-day IL ives decided that there are Q
number OF important vacancies In the Govern.
ment service In New York State and elsewhere
which IL IN desirable should be filled before
election. and 10 was therefore agreed that they
should be hlled n soon - the necessary COM
missions can DO prepared.
