sroCK RRoKERs ASSIGN.

New York, November 15.-The firm OF
Grant brothers, stock brokers, made an
assignment today to E. q. Stedma n, and
the assignment was made the basis OF ru-
mors which in substance were to the
effect that the stoppage Of the firm busi-
ness was due to defalcation The
amount OF the defalcation was placed at
from $3.50, 900 to $1,000 but UP to the
present no one connected with the firm
will admit or deny the rumors that are
flying around, and Just where they
started is not known. The firm was
rominent on the stock exchange some
years ago, but of late has been inactive.
Mr.. Stsdman says the liabilities Will be
Glow 500, 600. and probably less than
h lIf that sum, and that OF late the Grants
have been winding up their affairs.
MIR. Stedman said tonight: ~ shall not
make any report until 10 O'Clock tomor-

All Likely To Stay But
One.
Attorney General Griggs Ex-
pected To Resign.

--EWashington, November IL President
Mckinley today announced clearly and
forcefulIy to the members OF his cabinet
his desire that they should all remain
with him during the four years OF his
coming admin stration. His wishes were
made known In an extended speech at the
cabinet meeting in he White House to-
day. Responses were made by ali OF the
members present and while there were no
definite pledges from any OF them that
they would accept the poI tfolios thu
rendered afresh, there was, on the other
hand, no definite declination. Today IS
proceedings sets forth the wishes OF the
President IN the matter and relieves the
members of the cabinet OF the customary
obligation Of rendering their designations
at the end, of the term unless they have
made an irrevocable decision that it Will
be impossible for them to continue in
office. 1t also sets at rest all speculation
ana slats-maKing Of the country q
political prophets, for 1t is understood
generally that there is but one doubtful
factor in the homogeneity OF the present
cabinet. That factor Is Attorney General
Griggs, as he holds his present position
at great financial sacrifice. Still, Mr..
Griggs replied in terms OF warm appre'
citation to the complimentary remarks of
the President, and voiced no intention Of
retiring from his present position.
This is not the first time that the Presi-
dent has expressed to the members OF the
Cabinet his pleasure at the support they
had given him. He said as much In a
general way at the last cabinet meeting,
when the members, several OF whom had
been scattered by the political campaign,
got together for the first time and con-
graduated him upon the outcome Of the
eIe ction. Today the President had svi-
IDENTIFY prepared for the occasion. and In
his address reviewed the work or the ad-
ministration In the past four years-fo1r
of the most exciting years the country
has known In three decades. 1t was
rather a surprise even to the Cabinet
members themselves to note how accu.
rateiy the President had fixed In his
memory the sequence Of events. and how
calmly he reIinquished the personal credit
for successful strokes OF policy or pru-
dence, and attributed the honor to the
members of his official family in whose
department the matter in question had
arisen. He said that If the result or the
recent election was an endorsement OF bis
administration, IL was no less an endorse
ment OF the men who had stood by him
in the time OF stress and necessity. The
credit for success, he said, lay with the
heads of his various departments, and he

COMMANDERS CENSURED.
Naval Court Of InquIry's Verdict I'm
Dahlgren-craven Collision.

Washington, November 13.-The naval
court OF inquiry which Investigated the
collision on October 10, near Newport,
of the torpedo boats Dahlgren and the
A. NJ. Craven, has made It's report, reoom-
mending that Lieut.. Ford IL, Brown OF
the. .Craven be tried by court martial and
that Lieut.. William q. Miller Of the
Dahlgren be censured.
On the recommendation OF the judge
advocate general, Secretary Long dis
pensed with the court martial ana ad-
ministered censure in both cases. The
report OF the board gives the circum-
stances Of the collision which occurred
when the boats were of Castle Hill, the
Dahlgren ahead and the Craven follow
ing about one or two hundred rods away.
When the Dahlgren made sudden and
proper change OF course, q collision be-
came unavoidable unless the Craven had
maintained perfect lookouts, which the
board finds was not done. There was
only one lookout, on the side away from
the Dahlgren and the.commanding officer
at sths moment Of tine change or course
left the deck and went into the coming
tower to look at the chart. The board
finds that here Lieut.. Brown was
mainly responsible for the collision.
1t also holds that Lieut.. Miller commit-
ted an error of Judgment in not, under
the circumstances. indicating in some
way the intended change OF course to
Lieut.. Brown, although the court says 1t
has In mind the fact that 1t has not
been customary In handling torpedo
boats In company to give previous noti-
fication OF change Of course. The rec
ommendation OF the Judge Advocate
General which was approved by Secretary
Long, after approving the general find
ings Of the board, says:
"In view, however, OF the fact, that few
officers have had experience in the hand
ling of torpsdo boats and of the inadvis'
ability OF intoxicating in tine minds Of the
younger officers OF the service to whom
tbs command of such boats must neces'
sarily be entrusted, an excess OF caution
which might seriously interfere with
their efficiency 1t is believed that the
trial by general court martial of Lieut..
Brown while properly recommended by
the court, is unnecessary, and have tine
honor to advise, therefore, that said
officer be, as In the case Of Lieut.. VII
liam G.. Miller. censured."

should shrink from entering upon an
other four years of ofiics unless he could
be assured that he would have with him
q majority, at least, Of the men who
form his present official household. He
said he knew that In asking them to re-
main with him there was scarcely one
who could do so without some sacrifice,
eithor Of money, leisure or personal incii-
nation. At the same time, he said, he
should feel happier II all OF them could
crafty his wish.
Secretary Hay was the first to respond.
He said that for his part he deeply ap-
preciated the complimentary references
made by his chief, and that he thought
there was not member of. the Cabinet
who would sever such pleasant official re-
iations without regret, and even then
only In case OF the most urgent reasons
for retirement.
Secretaries Gage. Long, Hitchcock,
Wilson, Attorney General Griggs and
Postmaster General Smith each spoke in
turn, and in much the same vein.
Secretary Root was the only absentee,
having left to look over military affairs
and to recuperate from his long and seri-
ous illness The list of responses, there
fore, was all but complete. 1t is known
that Secretary Root Is in much the same
position as Attorney General Griggs,
holding his position at considerable tinan-
cial sacrifice, but willing, at the same
time, TO sacrifice good deal to comply
with the expressed wishes of the Presi-
dent.
The meeting, which had developed into
real love feast, then returned to the
more common place affairs Of routine
business, and the discussion OF the salient
features OF the Presidents coming mes
sage to Congress, after which the men,
bers left with renewed expressions OF re-
gard. The meeting stands as one OF the
most remarkable cabinet sessions on
record.

on Expansion and Try

Providence, R. l., March 15.-The
democratic state convention met here
today for the nomination of officers
and the selections Of delegates to the
democratic national convention. Ma
than w. Littlefield was nominated for
governor.
The platform adopted says in part:
No people should be annexed by the
United States against their Will, and
however willing to come, no people
should be admitted except to equal
rights. A republic cannot afford to
have a subject population. The con-
Stitution must always follow the flag,
a government of law and not of men.
When a corporation possesses the
power to arbitrarily raise prices or
depress wages it is in effect a rust.
Every such trust existing in the United
States should be controlled by national
legislation and when based on a mo-
nopoly it should be abolished.
The Chicago platform is endorsed
and re-affirmed.
