ONE CHANCE IN Cabinet
An Outsider to Bc Chosen to Fill
Olncy's Place.
CABINET MEETING YESTERDAY
Secretary Lamont Returns to Was hing.
ton After Advising with the prcsl.
dents New York Friends.
Probable Appointec.

Washington, June 7.-Secretarles
Smith and Herbert did not attend the
cabinet meeting today. Mr. Smith was
returned from indianapolis. Assistant
Secretary Uhl appeared with the papers
Of the state department and 1t was
generally understood that this would be
his last appearance as acting secre-
tary OF state. Attorney General Olney
was an early arrival and spent about
twenty minutes in the presidents priv
ate office before the cabinet met. Sec
retary lamont, who has been in New
York, has returned to Washington and
II Is believed that he had great deal
OF cabinet information in his posses
sion, as 1t was understood he had con-
suited with the New York friends of
the president while he was away. He
had consultation with the president
soon after his return to Washington.
Postmaster General Wilson hurried
back form the South In order to be pres
ent at the meeting, as 1t was quite pos
sible this would be the last meeting to
be held before the president went away
for tn summer. 1t is generally under
stood that If all pressing business can
be disposed Of the president will leave
here early next week.
No definite information was obtain
able respecting cabinet appointments,
save that there would be an arrange
ment of the cabinet and that the only
appointment besides that of Attorney
General Olney to be secretary of state
ha nf -
the attorney general.
The meeting lasted nearly two hours
and then adjourned. Postmaster Cen
eral Wilson remained with the presi-
dent for some time. 1t was expected
that at the close of the meeting the
cabinet changes would be announced,
but 1t was stated by one of the officers
that there was nothing to say. 1t is
understood that the delay was caused
by the fact that a successor of Attor-
ney General Olney had not finally been
decided upon. The names of several
prominent lawyers have been under
consideration, and it is believed that
tenders have been made which have
been declined.
Is Mr.. Harmon the Man?
Mr.. Harmon is believed to be the
coming man. Mr.. Harmon is a man
about fifty years of age, possibly few
over that number, and a resident of
Cincinnati. His name had not been
used in the gossip about the succession
to Mr.. Olney, except, possibly, in pri-
vate. For some years he was judge of
the court of common pleas of Hamilton
nd ha n1 Ar
Governor Hoadly to New York he be-
came the head of the law firm with
which the latter had been connected.
He is said to be one of the foremost
lawyers of the central states.

TIDE OF BUSINESS RISING.

The Gain Is so Rapid That Many Fear
Reaction Employment and Wages are
on the Incicase.
New York. June 7-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade tomorrow Will
say:
The tide of business Is rising. even as
1t was falling just two years ago. with
surprising rapidity. The gain has gone
so far and so fast in some branches that
the more conservative fear 1t may not
be maintained. But the period of dull
ness which comes in each market after
an unusual rise brings as yet nothing
like a corresponding decline. Indus
tries gain much, halt or fall back a
little. and then gain once more. The
demand for consumption steadily in
creases as the employment and wages
OF the people increase. The demand for
money expands. One serious question
remains, whether the crops will be full
enough to sustain a large business. But
the worse reports today are better by
far than the estimates recently cur
rent
Iron pushes upward like the great
buildings into which so much of 1t goes,
and the advance in finished products
has become general OF structural
steel 1850 tons were turned out in May
by the Homestead works, breaking the
record, and prices rise to 1.3 cents for
beams and IL for angles. The Eastern
Bar association has raised the price Of
refined iron to IL cent, and the Amalga-
mated association demands of Pitts
burg and western makers a change Of
wages with IL cent as the basis. Coke
producers are said to have substantial
ly agreed upon sales by an agency and
allotment of output, and an advance
In price to $3.50 or higher This and
purchases of $4,000 tons by the largest
producer Of pig iron have raised Besse-
mer to $l2 at Pittsburg, and Southern
pig has again been advanced 25 cents,
making rs cents in all.
Activity in stocks cannot be expected
with crops in doubt, and the average
of prices closed 81 cents per share lower
for railroads and 46 cents for trusts.
The flow of money hither from the in
terror has not ceased, but has much
lessened, and banks report general in
crease in discounts for the country,
largely for the south and in commercial
loans here, mainly in manufacturing
paper.
Failures for the week have been 1876
in the United States against PIG last
year. and % in Canada against 40 last

CAPTURE A CRANK.
A Man With Revolver Wanted to Inter
view the Queen.


Aberdeen, June THE man arrested
today charged with having fired re-
volver on the Ballater road, near Bal
moral, proves to be Thomas Don, son
of farmer living at Grief. When he
was arrested he said he was on his way
to Balmoral to obtain an interview
with his queen. He had in his pocket
a paper headed ITO the Queen" and a
letter addressed to Mr.. Gladstone. in
which the writer informed the EXPIRE
mier that he dom was about to be-
come king of Great Britain. He also
had letter addressed to Mr.. Wander
bilt offering to marry the millionaire's s
daughter.
Six chambers of his revolver We're
loaded and he had, besides, fifty
cartridges in a bag. His arrest was due
to information lodged by two men who
met HIM on the road TO Balmoral and
observed him practicing with his revol-
YER. He resisted arrest and fought des-
perately before he was overpowered.

EUROPEANS IN DANGER.
The fSituatiOn at Jiddah Considered q
Very Grave One.

very GraNe Onc.
Jiddah, June THE situation here Is
considered a very grave one for the Eu-
ropeans who have not been able to take
refuge on board the foreign vessels in
the harbor. There are very few Tur-
kish troops in garrison here, and the
townspeople generally are pleased at the
Bedouin attack on the foreign Consuls
and at their wrecking of the cholera
hospital.
This being pilgrimage time, religious
feeling among the masses runs very
high, and unless something is imme-
diately done by one of the powers or by
Great Britain, Russia or France, whose
consular representatives were murder
ously assaulted, to enforce respect for
Europeans, the lives of the latter will
not be safe and a revolt of the Bedouins
shortly Is very probable.

A South Dakota Mining Report.

The annual report OF the Home

1895, has just been fled by Supt.
Grier. The superintendent states in
his report that the mine is down to
tho sOO-foot level and has been cross
cut and found to have a width OF
$50 feet. He further says that there
is ore enough in sight to keep the
works running for 20 years. The re-
port, which is as follows, covers mere
ly the output OF the Homestake mine
alone and does not in any way include
the output OF any OF the other mines
in what is known as the Homestake
group: Gross receipts for the year,
