CANTON, o., Nov. 15.-President.
elect Mckinley passed another very
quiet Sunday. Mr.. Webb Hayes, son OF
the late President Hayes, came down
from Cleveland on morning train and
spent the day at the Mckinley resi-
dence.
Major Mckinley declared that his
health was never better, and that he
had completely recovered from the ia
! tigue Of his campaign labors. Mrs. Nc
Kinleys health has been so far restored
that she was able to go driving for
half an hour this afternoon.
Major Mckinley, accompanied by
Mr.. Hayes and Captain H. o. Heistand.
attended the morning services at the
First Methodist Episcopal church.
THE CABINET.
Although various newspapers have
published complete cabinet outfits for
the incoming administration, it is safe
to assert that not one of them has been
built upon anything resembling author
itative announcement from Major Nc
Kinley, or those who are closest to the
president-elect.
1t is evident that the president-elect
has not made up his mind as to the
formation of his cabinet, not even de-
cided upon the geographical allotment
of places therein. 1t is further appar-
ent that Major Mckinley will not con-
slider cabinet candidates until after his
return from his visit TO Cleveland. Ac-
cOrding to present arrangements, the
president-elect and Mrs. Mckinley will
To- -ol md adr dow
morning.
Since Chauncey NJ. Depew has ceased
to be talked about so frequently for
secretary of state, there has been a
good deal of discussion here of the
probability of his being appointed min
lister to England. 1t is known that
Major Mckinley has a very kindly
feeling for Mr.. Depew, and the latter's
friends here assert that he would find
life as ambassador to the court of st.
James very agreeable. He would have
a great field for speechmaking and all
of his work would be of a congenial
sort.
WILL NOT URGE HARRISON.
1t may be set down as certain that
unless the unexpected happens, Ben
jamin Harrison will not be urged to
take the portfolio of state in Major Nc
Kinley's cabinet General Harrison is
not thought to desire this appointment
and the belief here is that the presi-
dent-elect has about decided 10 offer
it to some one else.
A friend of Major McKinley's said
tonight that Senator Sherman undoubt-
edly expressed the desire of most of
Major McKinley's closest advisers when
he said that Congress should pass the
Dingley bill this winter. The new adj
ministration will not care TO be sad
died with an extra session of Congress
and Major Mckinley will have quite
enough to occuply him in organizing
his administration.
Major McKinleys advices from Tex
as are of a most satisfactory char
acter. They indicate an increase in the
Republican vote of the state of over
100 per cent. In Navarro county. the
home of Roger Q. Mills, the great tar
iff reformer, Major Mckinley secured
a plurality of 122 votes. That county
has heretofore been overwhelmingly
Democratic.
MORE MESSAGES.
Among the congratulatory messages
received today were the following:
