No HURRIED CHANGES.
Cabinet officers VIII Go Slow in Max
ing Appointments.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-All of the Of
ficers of the Cabinet have indicated
purpose TO go very S. in the change
of personnel I'm their rtments. This
not very cheerful news ice seekers has
been communicated direcl. to many Of the
aspirants who have been unable 10 repress
their ambitions. and, TO add to their dis
comfort it is intimated in some quarters
that there are to be very few changes in
office, save where the incumbent insists on
immediate retirement. for some time to
come. This may be an overstatement Of
the conservatism exhibited by the admins
tration. but it is recalled that Mr. McKin-
ley, before his inauguration. held to the
view that the change of officers. with all
of its accompanying confusion and disar-
rangement of business, should not be un-
dertaken until the tariff bill is enacted
This view is brought freshly TO mind by
the statement made to-day that a promi-
nent assistant secretary in one Of the ex-
ecutive departments has been asked to re-
main in his place for 1--WE months
Secretary Gage had another busy day in
receiving callers. The ways ano means
committee of the House headed by Mr.
Dingley. Of MaineI called in a body about
III O'Clock, and were presented to the sec
retary. Senators Teller and CullOm and
Representative Hit were among the morn
ing callers who desired to pay their re-
spects. II now seems improbable that any
considerable number of treasury nomina-
tions will be sent TO the Senate tomorrow
There are hve or six vacancies in the Of
fces OF collectors of internal revenue and
one or two places Of a more or less con-
rdential character in the secretary's office
which probably will be filled first. The
chief clerk and the appointment clerk usu-
ally are changed very soon after new sec-
retary is installed. and IL is probable that
the usual course will be pursued in this in
stance. Both of these positions are under
the civil-service rules, so that they will
have 10 be filled by promotions, or under
Rule 10. which makes an exemption in fa-
vor of ex-soldiers sailors. In their
cases the rules permit reinstatements, ir-
respective Of the length of time they were
out of the service. In all other cases the
one-year rule applies. The assistant Sec
retaries probably will be changed within
the next few days.
Postmaster General Gary had another

ator Mark Hanna called late in the after
noon and had an interview lasting scarce

NO SENATE REORGANIzs ALTON.
Republicans and Democrats Decide to
Continue Present Conditions.

WASHINGTON, March 9-There viii
probably be few vacant seats on the Re-
publican side OF the chamber when the Sem
ate meets at noon tomorrow. There will
be none if the admonition of the Republican
advisory is observed. for notices were sent
by the committee to-day 90 all the Repub-
lican senator's asking them 10 be in their
seats promptly upon convening tomorrow.
The purpose OF the notice could only be
surmised by its recipients. They concluded.
however, that il was connected in some way
with the organization Of the Senate or with
possible efforts that might DC made TO seat
the gentlemen who have been appointed TO
the Senate TO nil the vacancies from the
States OF Oregon, Kentucky and Florida
1t is understood that the credentials OF
some of those appointees will be presented
tomorrow. rumor has also been current
during the day attributing TO the Demo-

intention 10 try TO secure cont,ol OF the
Senate at a very early day. II the notices
grew out of either OF these circumstances.
circumstances which transpired after they
were sent out will probably render them un-
necessary.
The day was again crowded with con-
ferences by the leaders OF the various par
ties and when night arrived IL was pretty
definitely understood on all hands that the
contest over organization which has been
threatening for several days should not
take place. and that the present situation
should be maintained that the Republicans
should retain the control OF the committees

PLASTER OF PHRIS GAG.
Mrs. Gilbert Couldn't Talk, and She
Wants $4,000 Damages.

CLEVELAND, March 9.-Nellie A. Gill
bert, wife of Dr. Frederick Gilbert. told a
remarkable story in petition filed in court
to-day. The young woman brought suit
against her husbands father. DR.. G. III.
Gilbert for $4,000 damages for the aliena-
tion of her husbands affections and for S2O.-
900 for an assault alleged TO have been COM
mitted on her by her father-in-law. The
alleged assault, which she declares was
committed by DR.. G. III. Gilbert, consisted
of filling her mouth with wet plaster of
paris and permitting the substance 20
harden. thus preventing her from talking.
She alleges that she was found by her
brother in an unconscious condition with
the plaster in her { mouth. and
ii was necessary to use the
hammer 10 break the plaster be-
fore it could be taken from her mouth. The
allegation as to the alienation of her hus-
bands affections consists of a charge TO
the effect that Or. G. II. Gilbert offered his
son $4,000 and his practice If the latter
would get rid of his wife. The Gilberts are
prominent people on the South side, and
the young man and his wife recently figured
in a sensation, OF which these suits are
the outcome.

Meeting and Receives Many Callers.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-President Nc
Kinley and his Cabinet held their first for
NAL meeting at IL o'clock to-day. AS a rule
Cabinet day has been one reserved for the
business before the President and his ad-
visers not only as against the general pub
lie, but also senator's and members. To-
day, however, there was the usual early
rush of prominent men, many of whom
were received by the President. Several
notable groups arrived about 10 O'Clock
First that embracing the silver Repub-
lican senators-Teller OF Colorado Petit

Utah-who withdrew from the St Louis

was entirely a call OF courtesy and no allu-
sion TO party or politics was made. The
President showed his usual cordiality, and
there was no evidence in manner or words
of the divisions resulting from the national
convention.
Following this group came another one
