CINCINNATI, Feb. 19.-The Com

ator, the report has again been pub

tions, you would not enter the cabinet.
Will you authorize the Commercial
Tribune to authoritatively deny these
reports?" To which Senator Sherman
said "They are not true; | do not con-
slider them worth denying. You may
say for me, however, that | have never
considered such thing as not accept

culture will 60 to John H. Brigham, Of
Ohio. Col. Brigham, of Delta, O., went
to Canton last night and called at the

not been formally offered the position
of first assistant secretary Of agricul-
ture, but the friends who had urged
him for the cabinet are now urging
his appointment to second place. lie
intimated that he was willing to ac-
cept. Col. Brigham is national presi-
dent of the National grange. He is
practical farmer, but has mixed lit
tie in Ohio politics and was widely in
dorsed for secretary of agriculture.
The fact of his residence in Ohio was
the strongest reason against his selec-
ton.

there is no reason why "a local city

\ GOOD LAW.

\ very excellent law will go into
operation in England and Wales on
July list of next year. This act makes
employers liable for accidents causing
death and injury to employees, and af-
fects more than half the labor of the
country. The act met with great OPP
position from the owners of coal
mines. There is no doubt. however.
that if owners. and manufacturers are
made pecuniarily responsible there
will he far fewer accidents than there
are now. The owners show this at
once. for in their objection to the law,
they say that it will increase the cost
of production.
