Later in the day the president-elect
sent for Mr.. Fassett and explained that
General B. F. Tracy of Brooklyn and
General Seward of Auburn were beng
considered for the navy department.
and that he would like to know which
would be the more agreeable to Mr..
Plat The reply came very promptly
that Mr.. Tracy was preferred, as
Brooklyn had sent SO republicans reg
ularly TO republican conventions and
never had been recognized in any way.
General Tracy was then sent for and
informed that he had been selected for
the navy department. He declined for
the reason that he had no knowledge
OF naval affairs and did not feel compe-
tent to perform the duties of the office.
He wanted to be attorney general, but
that position had already been offered
to and accepted by the presidents law
partner, and General Tracy finally con-
sented to take the position which he
filled so acceptably for four years.
Shortly after the Inauguration the
republican newspapers, which were
most friendly to the president for some
reason or another, commenced an ac-
tive war upon Mr.. Plat and accused
him of nearly every crime in the cal
endar Chief among them was the Mail
and Express, of which the late Elliot
F. Shepard was editor. The latter was
devoting several columns day to the
praise of President Harrison, Postmas-
ter General Wanamaker and other
members of the cabinet and the re-
mainder of his pages to the abuse of
Mr.. Plat. One day when Senator Cal
vim S. Brice of Ohio was sitting idly in
his New York Office Mr.. Shepard ap-
peared and asked him if he had ever
heard story that had appeared in
some of the democratic newspapers
shortly before the election to the effect
that an attempt had been made to sell
a position in President Harrison's cab
met for campaign funds.
"'Yes,' replied Senator Brice, I
heard great deal about it.
Oulu you mlHQ CeillnS me what
you know in the strictest confidence?'
asked Colonel Shepard.
:" No sir. l will tell you nothing in
the strictest confidence | am not the
custodian of the secrets of the republi-
can party and you are at liberty to
print any information you can get out
of me on this or any other subject, now
or ar anv other time
"'Well, well, WE'LL exclaimed Mr..
Shepard. Would you kindly tell me,
then, the circumstances
LAS / remember them, related the
senator, 'it was reported to us at the
democratic headquarters that a man
of prominence who was very active
in raising campaign funds for the re-
publican committee approached the
managers of the land grant railroads
with proposition that if they would
contribute a large sum of money
President Harrison would allow them
to select his secretary of the interior,
who would look after the govern
ment's interests in their roads
" Do you know this to be true?' in
quired Mr.. Shepard, drawing up his
