CLEVELAND, Ohio, Jan. t. President

work of constructing cabinet for the
new administration. There seems TO
be no possible doubt that Cornelius n

and accepted the sccrotaryship Of the

The agreement as to Mr. Bliss will
probably be followed to-day by def

in Canton this afternoon.
The visit Of the treasurer OF the ma

much secrecy, that IL was only the
