Sherman had been arranged Yes, -
said he. eve are on good terms, and
will work together in harmony"
General Alger arrived at 1 o'clock and
lunched with Major Mckinley.
Ex-Congressman A. NJ. Thompson of
Ohio and ex-Speaker Titus Sheard of
New York were the other guests.
After lunch Major Mckinley and
General Alger retired for conference,
and az the expiration OF two hours
General Alger came out and made the
announcement that he was to be in the
cabinet. He left for Detroit at .. m.
General Alger was in a happy frame
of mind and was apparently pleased
with the result of his visit to Canton.
He said he was not personally ac-
quainted with all the men who are
likely to be in the cabinet, and that
three OF them he did not know by
sight. He said the appointment of Mr..
Gage had made a remarkably favor
able impression upon the business and
commercial world, and would hasten
the return of confidence.
Ex-Speaker Sheard of New York
talked for two hours today with the
preSident-elect. He said:
My interview was a pleasant and
the New York situation in respect to
the cabinet, and 1 urged the appoint
ment of General Stewart l.. Woodford
On the ground that he is a clean,
strong, capable man, about whom very
much that is good can be said and
against whom nothing can be said His
appointment would be acceptable to
the organizations in New York, and
that fact ought not to make it unac-
ceptable to any fair-minded citizen.
Major Mckinley has a high opinion .of
General Woodford and may appoint
him, but 1 do not think he has decided
what TO do in respect to New York.
My conviction is that New York will
be represented in the cabinet by a
thoroughly satisfactory man."
Colonel J. J. McCook, of New York,
who called on Major Mckinley last
night. is mentioned today as a cabinet

It Was Very Bitter.

Raleigh, N. c., Jan: 29.-The Butler
Populists, or the majority, held a caucus
Wednesday night and passed bitter
and scathing resolutions against the
bolting Populists, or Pritchard Popu-
lists, in which they characterized them
as traitors. The resolutions drawn by
Senator Butler abrogate all fusion
henceforth and refer to the Re
publicans as "slimy, poisonous snakes -
They issue long address to the POpu-
lists of the country and discourage all
fusion with either Republicans or
Democrats. Butler turns from
fusionist to radical anti-fusionist
The minority Populists met in caucus
last night and issued counter-address
to the people, covering the ground of
the fight which has been waging here
for three weeks. The split in the
Populist party in North Carolina is
final.
The Republicans have not entered
into the closing scenes of the contest
The Populists have settled their own
matters and the two factions have
agreed to SeDarate

WILL SOON COME WEST.
Corbett and Fitzsimmons Must Not
DELAY.

San Francisco, Jan. 29.-William Ken
yon Wheelock, the advance representa-
tive of Stuart, the noted prize fight
promoter, arrived directly this after
noon from Carson, New, where he has
been lobbying in the interest of the
bill to license glove contests. Mr.
Wheelock was naturally pleased when
informed that governor Sadler had
signed the measure.
Il found the sentiment in Nevada
most liberal" he said. The people
over there appreciate the fact that the
holding of glove contests in the state
means the influx of a large quantity of
money, for ring patrons are noted as
liberal s0enders..
1T has been definitely settled by Mr..
Stuart that the Corbett
state. l have located training quar-
Carson and Reno. Slaughter and
Steamboat Springs are both excellent
places to train, and / find that the
weather in Nevada during the month of
March is invariably mild and favorable
for outdoor work.
The contest will be had in the city
offering the most alluring inducements.
Mr.. Stuart will hear what Reno and
Carson have to say and will personally
examine the ground before making I'D
his mind as regards the location of the
battle ground.
Il have been in communication with
some of the railroad officials, and
while nothing definite has been agreed
on, we expect greatly reduced fares
to the point nearest the ring side.

They Flock Around GAGE.

Chicago, Jan. 29.-Lyman ]. Gage ar
rived in the city this morning from
Canton, where he was yesterday Of
fered and accepted the secretaryship of
the treasury. Mr.. Gage was met at
the depot by number of friends, who
were profuse in their congratulations.
The next secretary of the treasury was
not inclined to talk, but he acknowl-
edged the fact that the question of ilis
becoming a member of McKinley's cab
met had been settled to his satisfac-
tion.
When the next secretary of the treas
ury arrived at his office at the First
National bank, after breakfasting at
his home, he found a crowd of friends
waiting to shake hands and tender
their congratulations, and many teIe-
grams with the same good wishes came
from all parts of the country. Presi-
dent Gage was compelled to hold an
impromptu reception, but he let his
friends do most of the talking. All

Carson, New, Jan. 29.-Governor Sad
Ter, this afternoon. signed the bill re-
Gently passed by the Nevada state leg
islature licensing glove contests.
In an interview tonight, the governor
said:
While the bill was in the hands of
the senate and assembly, I refrained
from making any comment on the mat
ter Now that it has passed both
houses by a handsome majority, 1 con-
slider it my duty to sign it. It is evil
dent that the citizens of Nevada desire
that the measure shall become law.
and there is no valid reason why it
should not receive my sanction"
VIII you protect persons who pro-
mote fistic Encounters in Nevada,
should they comply with the law?'
Yes, they will receive whatever of
fetal protection it is in my power to
grant"

No Clue as Yet.

Roseburs. Ore. Jan. 29.-Up to late
hour tonight, no definite clews have been
discovered leading to the Identification of
the miscreants who held up the north
bound Southern Pacific express last night.
Superintendent Fields is on the scene,
personally directing the movements of
several posses who are trying to pick up
the trail of the robbers, but thus far their
efforts have been fruitless. owing to the
heavy rainfall of the past Y hours. De
tectives in the employ of the railway and
express companies are on their way here
from Sacramento, and upon their arrival
more systematic efforts will be made to
run the fugitives down. An unsuccessful
attempt was made here to open the
Wells Fargo through" safe, after which
it was shipped to the company's head
quarters at Portland. The metal of the
safe was badly warped by the heat, and it
is feared that at least part of the con-
tents will be damaged
The debris of the wreck has all been
cleared away and trains are moving on
time.

Cooney'S Peculiar Case.

San Francisco, Jan. 29.-In the pre-
liminary examination of ex-Notary J.
J. Cooney, who is charged with perjury
in connection with the Fair will con-
test, today, the prosecution offered
testimony calculated to prove that
within a few days thousand copies
of a blank similar to the one used by
Cooney had been printed by the firm
of Barry & Co. Employees of this
firm testified as to the preparation of
a zincograph copy of the Cooney blank
at the request of Detective Stillwell,
who placed the order with Mr.. James
H. Barry in the office of Attorney D.
NJ. Delmas.
Attorney knight pointed out that
Delmas was attorney for Cooney in a
civil suit for 100000 and said it could
be shown that Stillwell was also the
employee of Cooney.
Judge Cook reserved his decision in
the matter until Monday morning

MEANS MUCH, THEY SAY.
Nevada Will Be the Mecca For All
the Sports.

Carson. New, Jan. 29.-There was
great excitement in the senate cham
| Der yesterday when the glove contest
/ bill was placed on final passage It
was generally believed the night before
that the bill was doomed, but members
who had been against it received tele-
grams from all over the state urging
them to stand by the bill. AS these
kilograms We're read from the clerks
desk, it was easy to see that the tide
was turning, as many of the dispatches
were from prominent men and heavy
taxpayers.
There was a scene of suppressed ex-
citement as the roll was called and
when two doubtful senators wheeled
in line the vote stood nine to six and
the news spread rapidly over the city.
The business men were delighted at
the news, and there was hardly a dis
Senting voice except from clergymen
The pastors of the various denomina-
tions met in solmen conclave the night
before and held a council of war. They
decided to smite the coming iniquity
with series of resolutions setting
forth their ideas of the bill They drew
up the protest, and in the morning
were circulating it among their fiocks
While they were thus engaged the
the desk with his gavel and announced
the passage of the bill. The parsons,
who were about to present their peti-
tiOn to the senate, were met by the
crowd coming out, announcing that
the measure was passed They made
an attempt to get it reconsidered, but
could find no one to make the motion.
The governor is a hard-headed Ger
man, who has no puritanical ideas on
the proposition. He believes that the
matches, if properly conducted, will
bring thousands of people to Nevada
who otherwise would not come, and
they will be brought in contact with
the great natural resources of the
state. Besides this, nine-tenths of the
people of Nevada are in favor of the
bill.
Up to yesterday there has been a
stringent law here against pugilistic |
encounters, but it has never been en-
forced, and no grand jury ever pays |
the slightest attention to its violators. |
w. w. Wheelock. the agent of Dan
Stuart, stated last evening that he had !
no authority from Mr. Stuart to say |
where the fight would come off, Mr. |
Stuart was the proper person to make |
the announcement. There is no doubt, |
however, that the fight will take place |
at the Carson race track at the time |
set and in pavilion that will hold
at least 1000 people.

Mr.. Gage would say for publication
was this:
1T will be my aim to see that tbs
country is given a business-like admin
istration so far as the duty II the sec
retary of the treasury is concerned. My
appointments will be made with regard
to merit, and not because of poHtica
obligation. 1 shall be very busy4n the
next so days putting my affairs il
proper shape and getting my bearings
for the change to Washington, so that
l can give my utmost attention to the
position entrusted to me. l shall al
once tender my resignation of the
presidency of the bank to the directors.
l expect to go to Washington shortly
before March 1 TO select a residence.
All the questions of theory and policy
will be decided by the president, and
those questions I cannot discuss now"

By Judicial Pressure.

Toledo, O., Jan. 29.-Under judicial
pressure, the representatives of the tel
egraph companies today produced in
court in the WOolsOn litiga-
ton. the messages bearing on the sale
of the Woolson Spice company's stock.
Several of these seemed to bear out
the contention of the plaintiffs that the
directors of the Woolson company
knew they were selling to the Amer
lean Sugar Refining company, and not
to Mr.. Havemeyer and his associates
personally.
Graft NJ Acklin, one of the stockhold-
ers who sold out, testified that he had
been approached by Director James
Secor of the Woolson company who, he
said, made it plain that the stock was
to pass into the hands of the Sugar
trust to enable the latter to fight the
ArbuckleS.

UNIVERSAL PEACE.
Senator Sherman is Asked to Work
For 1t.

Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Sher-
man, chairman of the committee on
foreign relations, has received a pc
tition from the British Arbitration So
ciety of London, which that organiza-
tion asks him to lay before the senate.
The petition is similar to many that
have been received from American So
cieties. and urges the ratification of the
proposed general treaty of arbitration
as the first step between the two
greatest nations of the earth toward
universal peace.
Unfortunately for the British asso-
citation, it was ignorant of the pro-
visions of the United States constitu-
tion when it addressed it's petition
either to congress or any individual
member thereof. The receipt of pc
titions, or memorials, by congress from
aliens is prohibited, unless the same
come through the senate department
Senator Sherman cannot, therefore,
present this petition to the senate He
will lay it before the committee at the
special meeting tomorrow

interior. 1t will be observed that all
or the cabinet officers thus far selected
are from the central and western
states except the secretary of the navy.
For this reason it is believed that the
postmaster general will be an eastern
or southern man. As yet the south is
Unrepresented. The chance of H. CLAY
Evans of Tennessee for postmaster
general is considered to be good. 1t is
thought that a western man will be
for secretary of the interior.

HERALD MANS VIEWS.
Cabinet, So Far as Definitely Settled.

Especial to The Herald.)
Washington, Jan. 29.-Judge Goff of
West Virginia has written a letter to
a friend in Washington, in which he
says that he will not be a member of
Major McKinley's cabinet. He has con-
suited personally with Senator Elkins
and by letter with Major Mckinley,
and has concluded to be a candidate
for the United States senate to succeed
Senator Faulkner. The cabinet as far
as settled definitely will stand as fol-
lows:
John Sherman, secretary of state.
Lyman Gage of Illinois, secretary of
the treasury.
John A. Long of Massachusetts, sec
retary of the navy.
Russell A. Alger, secretary of war.
James A. Wilson of Iowa, secretary
of agriculture.
The general belief is that Judge Nc
Kenna Of California will be appointed
