Iected for the Place.

NEW YORK, December 9.-William *.
Olcott, President Of the Board of Alder
men, has been practically selected to
succeed Colonel john r. Fellows as Dis
trict Attorney. All other candidates have
withdrawn in his favor. and his selection
will be acceptable 10 all factions of the
Republican party. Governor Morton will
make the appointment, and it is expected
that he will fill the vacancy before the
end OF the week.

the place by the leaders Of the regular
Republican organization, by Mayor
Strong, and By many prominent members
Of the bar. His friends said to-day that
he would certainly be appointed. He has
always been identified with the regular
Republican organization, and he is very
friendly with Mr.. Platt. but he has never
antagonlzed the so-called Reformers in
the Board.
The new District Attorney can re0rgan-
ize the office, which has a salary-list OF
$4,000 a year
il Mr.. Oicott is appointed 10 ill out the
unexplred term. he will probably be nomi-
mated by the Republicans next fall for a
full term.

DIR. TALMAGE DENIES 1T.
Says lie Is Not to Marry Miss
NIangam.


NEW YORK, December 9.-The Rev. t.
Dewitt Talmage to-day denied the re-
port that he was going to be married to
Miss Susie Mangam, OF Sing Sing. DR..
Talmage came on from Washington. and
went up 10 Sing Sing. He was very at
tentive to Miss Mangam, whose brother
married the Doctors daughter not long
ago. and the report got out last night
that he was to be married TO her some
day the latter part OF this week or early
next week Miss Mangam is about 30
years of age. or thirty-five years the
junior of the venerable preacher, who
has already been married twice. She IL
the daughter Of Daniel ID. Mangam, of the
firm OF d. ID. Mangam q Co., of "a Broad
way.
As this union would have made her the
stepmother of her own brother, there
was a great deal OF interest attached to
the report. The engagement, IL was said
last night, had been more than halfway
admitted by the young wOman's friends,
so DR.. Talmage's denial Of its truth came
rather as a surprise to-day.
Dr.. Talmage was found at the Astor
House. He appeared to be in the best OF
health and spirits. He answered the ques-
tions in one Of the reception-rooms.
The Doctors face fairly beamed with
happiness when he was asked II con-
grafulations were the order Of the day.
II am always glad to be congratulated
on anything good" he said. What is IL
now that 1 shall be congratulated uponT'
Upon the report of your intended mar
rlage to Miss Mangam, of Sing Sing"
Il am sorry" said the Doctor, but
congratulatiors are not In order, for the
story ls not true
HOW do you imagine the story got
about?''
"Wen. sometimes folks do lot OF
guessing Every now and then they
guess right and then they guess wrong.
This time the have guessed wrong. l

opinion here is that the references 10

Of the message to-day, Will form some
definite Judgment, which. it is believed,
will result I'm a modification OF the rela-
