Deals Regarding the Senatorship and

Washington, D. c., November 2S.-

a statement to the Evening Star maxi
ing a fiat and emphatic denial OF the re-
ports concerning a deal between HIM
self and Mr.. Mark Hanna as to the
Ohio Senatorship and a Cabinet port
folio under Mckinley. Mr.. Sherman
says that the stories alleging an ar
rangement whereby he (Sherman)
should 80 into the cabinet and Mr..
Hanna succeed him in the. Senate are
pure fabrications. He has not, he
says, seen Mr.. Mckinley or Mr. Hanna
since the election, and that he has no
correspondence with them save of the
most ordinary character, chiefly for
warding applications for office made
through him. There have been, he
continued, no arrangements or confer
ences of any kind as to office
Regarding whether he would be 4
candidate for reelection to the Senate,
Mr.. Sherman said that he had not
thought anything about IT, and there
fore would not answer any questions
on that subject He paid a high tri-
butte to MIR Hanna. who. he said. was

in a damp cell in Morro Castle mis- life
might be placed in jeopardy. The
Florida Congressman went to the State
Department the first thing this morn
ing in quest Of additional details of the
arrest. Secretary Olney told him the
department had received no report on
the case. The Secretary was inclined
to think Mr.. PendleCon had not been
arrested, but had been merely detained
on account of some irregularity in his
passports. However. he promptly
cabled Vice Consul Springer, at Ha-
vana, to investigate and report imme-
diately on the case so that prompt ac-
tion may be taken to protect his rights
as an American citizen.

cerning Cuba, and expressed his SYM

not favor any action by the United

Origin of Santa Claus.

AS for Santa Claus himself, he has
surely n guarantee of Immortality, if
V a creation of human fancy and
domestic affection did so. He has a
history-much of it legendary, we must
confess-which of itself makes him a
noted character. He seems to be a
composite personality, uniting the Boy
Bishop of old times in England, the
Christ-kindlein Of Germany-the Christ
child who came down the chimney on
Christmas eve to fill the children's
stockings-and the st. Nicholas of
the Fourth century, who, having in
herited a large fortune, devoted it to
the relieving of distress, and some
times the necessities of those who in
some distress of evil fortune became
embarrassed, or reduced from wealth
to poverty. The reindeer and the sleigh
must be Of a far northern origin. Thus
the orient, Britain, Germany and Scan
dinavia, appear to have each a hand in
creating a personality which is so dear
to US all because it represents what
is most simple, kindly and beneficent
in the more intimate relations OF human
life.-Chicago Standard.
