And it is funny about this talk of an
extra Cabinet place Nothing IN il, OF
course-unless Mr. Ha&na should determine
To have his Congress tthe next Reed Con-
gress, that ISL pass bill creating a
Secretary OF Commerce, and should also
have his Senate and his President, for he
will own them also, agree to il and sign
it. The truth probably is that this extra
Cabinet place is simply convenience just
now, when ii is important that a large
number of patriots should he mentioned
In connection with the various hi gh offices;
and very naturally, so or 500 might
properly be mentioned in connection with
nine Cabinet places, where only so or 500
could properly be mentioned in conn ection
with eight. All this is very flattering, and
it is smooth OF Major Mckinley, and of
those of his friends who are doing his
gossiping for him, to give this out, and
give it out cold. 1t is also smart to have
it understood that man like Dawes and
Porter John Addison), W no must be placed
somewhere, should feel secure in their
places 1t keeps others from applying
for the places.

They can say what they choose about
Arthur Pue Gorman, but lie knows a thing
or two. and one of the things that he
knows is that many OF the Washington
newspaper correspondents are probably
just as clever as anybody else. MI.
German has been a very much abused
person in the past, but if you ever Oh
served the phenomenon closely, he has
been abused by editorial writers and
other kinds OF writers far away, by men,
that is, who have never come under the
spell OF his winning and smooth person
aIity. Now, 1T may be that Senator
German treats the correspondents pleas
antly because he thinks TO rub their fur
in the right direction, but that can hardly
be the idea, for they do not all write
for the newspapers OF Baltimore or OF
Laurel. 1t is far likelicr (cspecially since
Mr.. Gorman happens to be one Of the
star guests Of the Gndiron Club that
he Just likes the boys and probably
respects them also. He had a number Oi
them at his tea the other day, and some
OF them had their wives with them; anC
SO far as the event has been described
in the lit wspapers they all behaved prop
eny, and their wives were some OF The
loveliest persons present.

1t appears that Col. Tom ochiitree, the
only Republican Congressman that Texas
ever sent to Congress tand possibly the
only real Republican who ever lived il
Texas, would like 70 see Judge Goff ac
cept a Cabinet place. This Information
ought to be telegraphed TO Nathan Goff-
though it can be said to Tom Ochjltree'S
credit, that he is willing TO admit that he
has a second choice. IfiOff isStiIl obdurate,
Tom would prefer Gen. Powell Clayton, Of
Arkansas; AMI as Gen. Clayton was once
III Congress from Arkansas, and as Tom
Ochiltree IS supposed to have been the only
Republican that Texas ever dared to send
tothe House, this distin guiShc d consideration
on Col Tom OChiltree's part is wholly
natural Powell Clayton has rather ex-
pected to be in the Cabinet He wanted To
help advise Benjamin Harrison how to run
the government, bat he never had a chance;
AMI he would have opposed Harrison for
denomination in 90, but for the fact that
Harrison had made one OF the young men
of the Clayton family cadet at West Point
or Annapolis Clayton has always been
powerful in national politics, because, while
strictly Spea king, there has never been any
Republican party in Arkansas, he has
nevertheless been the leader of that party.
That state comes high in the rolI-can at
Republican national conventions. Some say
that it has been known to come high in
two senses.

queathed 81 800. This is on deposit

TOBACCO MEN SQUEAL.
Th e Moisture In Their Tobacco Will
Have to Be Paid For.

NEW YORK, July 27.-The. new
tariff law has caused a panic among
tobacco importers, and they declare
that one short paragraph in the new
law means a loss to them of thou,
sands of dollars every year. The
paragraph is part of section 33 of
the act, which compels importers to
pay duty on tobacco at the weight
at which it goes into the bonded
warehouse. This takes from the to
bacco men privilege that has for
many years been accorded them by
tariff laws. Under the Wilson act
and previous, importers haye had
their tobacco reweighed at the time
of its withdrawal from bonded ware
houses, and on this weight duty was
collected. The weight is greatly re-
duced during the bonded period by
evaporation.
