SHERMAN HOLDS THE KEY.
Makeup of the Next Cabinet Will
Depend ON His Action

CLEV leland, o. Jan. 7.-President-
elect and Mrs. Mckinley remained at
Windemere until this afternoon, when
they were driven in Mr.. Hanna's car
riage to the residence of Mr.. and Mrs
Myron T. Herrick, at No. 1856 Prospect
street, where they will remain during
the balance Of the week.
There were very few callers at Win
demere during the morning and Mr..
and Mrs. Mckinley, in consequence,
spent the morning in very quiet man
ner, chatting with the members Of the
family. 1t having been definitely de-
termined that Senator Allison will not
be a member of the Mckinley cabinet,
it is generally conceded that Senator
John Sherman holds the key to the
situation 1t was stated at Mr.. Han
mas Office today that the exact date
when Mr.. Sherman would visit the
president-elect had not been fixed, al
though it was admitted that the meet
ing had been arranged. 1t is quite
probable that no further important
steps will be taken towards the for
nation Of the cabinet until the presi-
dent-elect has conferred with the senior
Ohio senator.
j. L. Lattin a prominent Republican
leader in Tennessee, arrived in CIeve-
land this morning, and during the day,
had a conference with National Chair
man Hanna Mr.. Latin stated that he
came in connection with the guberna-
torial and congressional contest in his
state.

TAWNEY Talked OFF.

General.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.-Michigan
wants Alger for secretary of war, or
Palmer for secretary Of agriculture.
Wisconsin wants Payne for postmaster
general, or Hoard for secretary of ag-
riculture. Minnesota wants Merriam
for secretary of war, or .Tawney for at
torney general. Probably you hadn't
heard Of Tawney for attorney general,
but it is talked of in national political
circles. Iowa wants "Tama Jim Will
son. for secretary of agriculture, or
Hull for secretary of war. New York,
each Of the six New England states, all
of the South, and the Pacific coast,
are after cabinet places. Just how the
advance agent of prosperity is going
to provide cabinet places for 100 or
more men, when there are only eight
cabinet portfolios, is hard to figure out,
so long as figures Will not lie." Maj.
Mckinley is a great man, but whether
he can solve this problem satisfactorily
or not remains to be seen.

OLIVIA, Mimi, Jan. 7-There is
much excitement all over RenvilIe
county today over the discovery of an
cid Spanish gunboat on the farm Of
CHARLES Brown, near here, and hun
dreds Of people have been flocking to
the place. Joseph Bagne struck the
vessel while digging a we'll, and teams
have completely uncovered it, It's arm
ament comprised five cannon tnd two
mortars. Cannon balls and bomb
shells were found in large numbers.
The boat is a very old one, and there is
much speculation as to how long it has
been in the ground The impression is
that the boat was run up into this re-
gion about 1900, when a much larger
proportion of the state was water than
now. The gunboat was found directly
on Birch Coolie creek, which at that
time was, no doubt, navigable river.

BISMARCK, N. D., Jan. THE house
and senate met today with complete
representation. The senate organized,
the original slate being modified slight

messages of the retiring and incoming
governors. The house committee on
elections was appointed and has two

enough dissatisfied Republicans into
their caucus, in hope of helping elect a
Republican who will concede something
to them for support. The outlook is
though that the election of Hansbrough
to the senate is practically ac-
comphshed. His supporters have the
pledges Of a majority Of the Republi-
cans of the legislature, and unless these
pledges are broken, Hansbrough will
win. on the first ballot. This result was
accomplished under most peculiar con-
ditions. Three weeks ago the opposi-
ton to Hansbroughs return was in the
majority, but this opposition was not
united. On Sunday the blizzard chock-
ed up every line of railroad in the state,
leaving Hansbrough's opponents at
Fargo and Grand Forks, unable to
reach here. The Hansbrough men had
majority of the Republicans here,
and they seized the opportunity to
make up the slate for both legislative
houses. The i-Hansbrough men
here were without organization, the
house had to organize Tuesday, and
the anti -Hansbrough men were COM
PEELED to come into the HansbrQugh
camp, or lose all their offices in the or
ganization. Every man came into the
caucus, and submitted to the slate.
Subsequent events settled the matter.
Col. w. H. Robinson, national COM
mitteeman, had just returned from a
trip to Cleveland to see Hanna, who
refused to interfere against Hans
brough It is said that Robinson has
wired from Fargo releasing all who
were pledged to him.
The inaugural ball has been inde-

ALLISON RETICENT
AS to Just What Took Place at
Canton

WASHINGTON, jan 7.-Senator
Allison arrived in Washington today
from Canton. In answer to inquiries,
he said in substance that his conference
with Mr.. Mckinley was of a confiden-
tial character and therefore he was
not at liberty to discuss 1t. AS for
himself, however, he would say that
he would not be In Mr. McKinley's
cabinet AS to others whose names
had been prominently mentioned in
connection with the cabinet he knew
little. Whether Senator Sherman or
Mr.. Cornelius N. Bliss, of New York,
had been or would be offered port
folios, he did not know. Neither, he
added, had he much definite informa-
ton in regard to Mr.. Dingley, Of Maine.
The name-of the chairman Of the ways
and means committee had been promi-
nently mentioned in connection with
the secretaryship Of the treasury, and
undoubtedly he would fill that position
with marked ability, but the senator
did not know whether he had been
rendered the position.
