The Kentucky senatorship.

Louisville, Dec. 16.-Gov. Bradley
has given out signed statement con-
rerning the prospective senatorial va
cancy and the manner of filling it.
Blackburns S term will expire on March
4. The last Legislature failed to elect.
Gov. Bradley contends that special
session held before there is a vacancy
rannot elect, and. also, that after
March he can appoint senator who
will be seated, and cites numerous
rases. The Faulkner case, he says, is
not parallel, and he also takes posi-
tive issue with Senator Chandler. In
the whole interview, however, he
drops no hint as to what he will do.
If he calls an early special session of
the legislature he will surely appoint,
Dut he may not call the session until
after March a.

THE POPULAR VOTE
Mckinley Received 7,1O0,49O and
Plurality of oOO,7oo.
TOTAL VOTE CAST, ts,q24,6ss
Palmer and Buclxner Received 1872, ,O58,
and lowering 127,174---Free Silver
Prohibitionists, 13,32O---sociaI
Labor, 33,942.

New York, Dec. 16.-The canvass of
the vote of New York state practically
completes the official vote by states and
makes it possible for the first time to
tabulate the popular vote for presi-
dent. With the exception of Utah
and South Dakota, where the courts
have ordered the revision of the com
pleted returns, the final official vote
OF all states has been collected by the
United Associated Presses. In Texas
the state canvassing board declared
the vote without waiting for the re-
turns from six small counties. These
have been estimated and added to the
result in that state. The total vote
cast was 1924, ,633. This was 1873, l24
more than the total vote of 1892. Nc
Kinley received 7,1O9, 4SO and Bryan
$685. ,6S1, a plurality for Mckinley of
600, 799. The vote for Bryan and Sewall
and that for Bryan and Watson are
combined in the total vote given for
Bryan. Only twelve states reported a
separate vote for Bryan and Watson.
His aggregate vote was 46,S79. The
democratic vote for Palmer and Buck
ner was 1920 The prohibition vote
for Levering was 1877, 174. The national
or free silver prohibitionists cast 49,
800 votes for Bentley. Matchett, the
candidate of the socialist labor party,
received 33,942.

CABINET SITUAT...oon
Believed T .at NO Portfolio Has
Yet Been rendered.
IIAENA'S VISIT TO MAJOR M'KINLEY
Acquainted the President-eIect with
What Had Been Done in Inaugu-
raj Arrangements---Other
Visitors at Canton.

Canton, O., Dec. 16.-The visit of
Chairman Hanna to Canton yesterday
afternoon has not in any way changed
the cabinet situation SO far as the pub
JIG knows. There is still ample reason
to believe that no portfolio has been
rendered to a single person. Mr.. Han
ha has not determined upon his own
course. lie talked for an hour or more
with Mr.. Mckinley about his trip to
the east and acquainted him with what
had been done in the way of arranging
for the inaugural ceremonies. Mr..
Hanna returned to Cleveland late last
evening. Charles G. Dawes of Chicago
arrived here during the morning and
will remain guest at the Mckinley
residence until this afternoon. When
Major Mckinley goes to Chicago the
last of the week he expects to spend
at least one day with Mr.. and Mrs.
Dawes at their suburban home at
Evanston. Lieut.. Gov. SaXtOn OF
New York lunched with Major
Mckinley and had a conference with
him. The situation in New York was
discussed. Mr.. Sexton said later:
mere IS no QOuDG OF Lne elecGlOH Ol
Mr.. Platt to the United States senate.
He will have very large majority OF
the republican votes in the legislature.
! cannot say that New York is united
on any one for the cabinet at present.
There are a number of men who would
make excellent cabinet officers. So
far as l know, there is no popular
movement in favor of any of them.
Mr.. Morton is out of the race. J"
Brutus j. Clay discussed Kentucky
politics with Major Mckinley during
The afternoon. THE trouble with
Kentucky is that we have too many
good republicans who want to go to
the senate to succeed Mr.. Black burn, :"
he said. Gov. Bradley ought to go
TO the senate because he has, in my
opinion, done the most for the party,
but what is most important is that
Iome good republican should go.
Major Mckinley impressed upon me
the idea that it would not well do to
lose that seat in the senate when we
have SO good a chance to get it. His
notion is that we ought to sink all per-
sonal ambitions and animosities for
the good of the party and country"
