Publication of Shcrman's Book at This
Time Condemned by Politicians.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-The second
publication OF extracts from Senator
Sherman's book, which lays before the
public many of the secrets of Republi-
can politics during the past two or three
national conventions, has created pro-
found sensation i'll the East. Very few
Republicans Of any prominence will dis
cuss for publication the statements re-
garding the methods by which the NOM
nation Of Garfield was brought about;
nor will they say anything as to the al
legged deal MI. Sherman claims was
made to insure the success of Harri-
son i'll 1888 and 1892. There is /.
feeling, however. that MI. Sherman has
made very grave political error in per-
mitting extracts from his book to be
published i'll advance Of the fall cleo
tions in Ohio and other states. There is
no doubt whatever, say some of the
shrewdest of Republican politicians in
Washington, that the printing at this
time of Sherman's book will not only
injure the Republican prospects in Ohio,
but will engender strife in New York
and Pennsylvania.

OLNEY MAY RETIRE,

Said the Secretary of State and Presi-

CHICAGO, Oct PA special dispatch
to The Inter-Ocsan from Washington
says: Owing probably to the fact that
Secretary Olney did not go to Atlant;,
with the president and party, but did
leave for Boston during the day IL
rumor is a1oat that Mr. Olney is con-
templating retirement from the cabinet.
The alleged excuse for this is sup
posed disagreement between himself
and the president in regard to the for
eign policy, especially with reference to
the Venezuelan matter, in which the
rumor says that Mr.. Olney favors a
more vigorous course than does the
president. The rumor, however, is en-
tirely unconfirmed, and owing to the
absence of Mr.. Olney and President
Cleveland; as well Is all members of
the cabinet, it is impossible to obtain
any definite information which will
confirm or disprove it.

Governor Clough was seen regarding
the assignment but was adverse to
talking about it for publication. 1.-THE
assignment, he said, ''as probably all
are aware, was precipitated by the
Clarke failure. The estate is indebted
to us in the sum of 1000 and the as
