were there by previous arrangement for tho purpose of forming combination. or to discuss politics. Colonel Albert steinhart, as having been present at the meeting, re- quests that the statement be published that he was not there for any political purposes, and that he did not see the governor dur ing the morning. Hon. Gesner Williams, of Demopolis. also says that his presence in the office that morning had nothing what ever to do with politics, as does also Colonel Wiley's representative.
 There is new story in circulation here this morning to explain the presence in the city during the past three days of Con- gressman Stallings. It is to the effect that the congressional candidates dn the Second district are an demanding that the counties select congressional delegates on the same date with delegates to the state convention Crenshaw has already taken this action, and it is stated that Pike has done the same thing. The Montgomery committee has been called to meet on the 10th of this month, and 1t is said that an effort is to be made to have this committee act in the same manner. The effect of this movement is plain.
 It has been charged that in case MT. Stallings fails to receive the nomination for governor that he will again become a candidate for congress, and that he is fighting the scheme to select the congress sional delegation on the same date with the state delegates.
 With Stalings out of the race for con- gress, it is generally believed that Colonel Wiley can secure the delegations from Montgomery, Pike and Crenshaw-suffi- cient votes to nominate him.

Pepsioning Old Empioyes

t9 Philadelphia, Pa, January 1.-The system of pensioning old employees of the Pennsyl- yania Railroad company the lines east of Pittsburg was inaugurated today. About $50 men, who, by reason of long service in the company's employ have become in capacitated for further active duty, were retired on pensions that average nearly the wages they received when at work. It is understood that sum approximating $300,- GOO is at present available for pensioning purposes, and that before the system can be extended to the lines west of Pittsburg much larger appropriation will be neces- sary. Thus far no person holding a posi- tor of importance has been affected by the pension. Hereafter no person over 35 years of age will be taken into the employ of the company.

COMMANDS IN CUBA TO BE REORGANIZED There Will be Two Departments Instead of Six BRlGADIER GENERAL NEEDED The Entire Eastern Half of the Island is Without Permanent Com
 mander Senior Colonel
 Now Has Charge
BRlGADIER GENERAL NEEDED

Washington, January 1.-It Is probable that the present month will be marked by "a complete reorganization of the military commands in Cuba The impression pre- walls that there is to be a heavy reduction in these commands, and 1t IS intimated that the outcome will foe the creation of two de- partments instead of the six which origi- dially comprised Cuba, and the four into which the island Is now divided.
 General Wilson, who commands the conn., bined departments of Matanzas and Santa Clara, has been ordered to Washington, and it is not the present intention that he shall return to Cuba. It is said that while here General Davis, who is coming from Puerto Rico, and Is due on the 9th at New York, will confer with the committees of congress having to do with the creation of new form of government for Puerto Rico and with legislation for Cuba during the time it shall remain under American control
 The combined department of Santiago and Puerto Principe is without com mander, although the duties of the post vacated by General Wood on his promo tion to the governor -generalship are tenn porarily being discharged by uhe senior colonel.
 Thus the entire Orient, as the eastern half of the island Is called, is without a permanent commander. It is understood that the four departments in the Orient will be consolidated into one, and that a brigadier-general will foe named by Secre- tary Root, upon the recommendation of General Wood, to take command. with headquarters at Santiago.

Navigation suspended in Ohio

Louisville, Ky, January 1.-Navigation on the Ohio river is suspended from here to Pittsburg, and partially so from this city to Oairo. The river here is falling and full of ice, which is growing heavier in quanl- tity and harder in quality.
 No gorges are as yet reported above, and the current is carrying 1t off with the ex- ception of shore ice, which extends some distance out, and is frozen hard to the banks. The ferry boats quit business at 6 o'clock last night.
 The big side wheel, New South arrived from Cincinnati last night for New Orleans slowly working her way through the ice in the canal. She will be the last boat to go down the river until the ice runs out and the boats are able to resume their trips
