CABINET GOSSIP.
Hanna For Teasury and Payne
For Postmaster.

Hanna For Teasury and Payne
For Postmaster.
Washington, ID. c., Nov. 90
The information comes from Can.
ton that Mr.. Mckinley has decid-
ed upon the following:
Secretary Of the Treasury
Marcus A. Hanna, of Ohio.
Postmaster General-Henry c.
Payne, of Wisconsin.
Mr.. Hanna was disinclined to
take cabinet position. Just as
he wanted to consider the result
of the st. Louis convention his
finished work, so he felt that with
the election he had accomplished
all he desired. But after the
nomination the force of circum-
stances put upon him the man
agement of the cOmpaign. So now
following the election, he is be
ing made TO feel that the forma-
ton of an entirely satisfactory
cabinet must include him as the
head sof the treasury. Since his
return from New York, and since
his conferences with prominent
Republicans, Mr.. Hanna has
come to look upon the cabinet APP
pointment differently. He said
before the election, and immedi-
ately following it, that he want
ed nothing. He still wants moth
ing, but the news from Canton is
that he will accept the secretary
ship, although in the beginning he
would not consider the sugges-
ton. Mr.. Hanna had other plans,
both personal and political. He
intended to give the next two
years to his private affairs, and
then go to the senate from Ohio,
Now, it is said, he is becoming
recOnciled to the idea of a place
in the cabinet.
Mr.. Payne's selection is con
sidered fit in every way. In ad
dition to qualifications for the
management Of the postoffice de
partment, Mr.. PAYNE is persona
grata to Mr.. Mckinley for his
services in the campaign and by
reason of the stalwart steadfast
ness of the northwest.

TO CONVERT NEW YORK.

New York, Nov. 20. - The
World this morning says: More
than a hundred ministers in
Greater New York have decided
to use their every effort to bring
about the greatest evangelical
awakening this city ever had.
The call is issued to all the minis,
tiers of the city to open the doors
of their churches every night for
revival services. 1t is expected
there will be more than 500 meet
ings a night and the results will
be most extraordinary of modern
times. 1t is hoped to arouse not
only the great metropolis, but to
have the movement radiate in ev-
cry direction. 1t is hoped that it
will sweep over the country. Ev-
cry denomination and every
prominent pastor in New York
and Brooklyn are interested in
this movement. The feeling is
said to have been the outgrowth
of the Moody meetings in this
city. Dwight L. Moody has said
that they have been among the
most remarkable of his expert
ence. The Carnegie hall services
on Sunday have been especially
notable.

prepared for surprises, as Amer

friendship for Germany as was
consistent with her interests.

Republicans for Bryan

To the Editor OF Post Dispatch.
It is surprising to see the num-
Der of voters who have always voted
the republican ticket declaring for
Bryan and free silver. In this coun.
tY (Greep) which has been strong
hold for years, the democrats are
confident of winning q big victory
this fall The republican politicians
have been telling the farmers that
free silver meant cheap money, and
that they would have to pay two
dollars for what they could buy now
for one. The farmers have conclud-
ed that il this was true, and they
believed it was, it would give them
dollar bushel for wheat instead
of fifty cents, aud they are rushing
pell neil into the free silver camp.
If the sentiment throughout the
United States is like it is in this
section, Bryan and Sewall will be
elected by a larger majority than
any ticket has received for half q
century.
