Iocs From New York's Ficlit
luff Factions Speculations.
Indiana now comes to the front with a
petition for place. The Hoosicrs think that
one of their favorite sons should bold a
portfolio, and Huston would take the Post
office or the Interior Department. General
Harrison's speech to the veterans has
created a stir, particularly that portion re
ferring to a fair ballot. Frank Hiscock's
coming is awaited with interest. Knowing
ones claim that he has a peace offering from
the New York bosses, but they also think
that bis mission will be fruitless.
Ixdianapolis, January 2. The visit of
the Hon. H. A. Davis, Chairman of the Re
publican Central Committee, of Lawrence
connty, to General Harrison, this afternoon,
was of more than ordinary importance, as
he carried with him for presenta
tion to the President-elect peti
tions and letters of recommendation
which may have considerable weight
in securing a Cabinet hosition for one of
Indiana's distingushedcitizens. Mr. Davis
resides at Bedford, the county seat of Law
rence county, and on December 5, after,
consulting with the members of his County
Committee, he sent out a private circular to
each of other 91 Republican County Chair
men in Indiana, urging that "Indiana ought
to be represented in President Har
rison's Cabinet. Other States are
urging their claims for such
representation. Should we not be taking
some action?" He then sets forth that Re
publicans of Lawrence connty are strongly
in favor of Senator James It. Huston, the
Chairman of the Republican State Central
Committee, for a Cabinet position, and re
quests his brother chairmen to communicate
their views on the subject to him.
ALL EJDOBSE HUSTOJf.
As a result of his private circular, Mr.
Davis came to the city to-day and accom
panied by Dr. Joseph Gardner, he handed
General Harrison 63 letters from as many
county chairmen, some of ihem addressed
to the General, and all cordially and vol
untarily indorsing Chairman Huston
for a Cabinet place. Many of the
letters uiged Mr. Huston's appoint
ment in very strong terms, and
designated the Postmaster Gcneralshio as
the portfolio best suited to the needs of In
diana. Others, however, suggested Mr.
Huston for the Secretary of the Interior,
while iully one half make no special desig
nation of the Cabinet place they desire to
see tendered to him. Mr. Davis also pre
sented the request and recommendation of 14
additional county chairmen who had per
sonally authorized him to act in the prem
ises for them, making 77 counties thus far
heard from out of 92. He states that not
a single county chairman of those heard
from was opposed to Huston or in favor of
urging any other name. This is the first
official act of the Republicans of Indiana
toward securing Cabinet recognition.
A SPEECH THAT CAUSES TALK.
The Grand Army veterans and many of
General Harrison's civilian friends were re
gretting to-day that no authentic and ac
curate verbatim report of the General's
brief speech last night was in existence.
Those who heard the speech regard it
as a very significant and import
ant one, out the several versions of
it that appeared in the press throughout the
country this morning, whether pretending
to quote his exact language or in the third
person, were all compiled from memory.
The meeting of the veterans was private.
Only members of the post were admitted,
and it is known that General Harrison re
garded the meeting as a "family gather
ing," and had no expectation" or de
sire that his remarks should be
printed The spirit of the speech vas
the subject of general approval and con
gratulations to-day in army circles, and
with Republicans generally. Bymany it is
regarded as a "keynote" to the attitude of
the nev administration toward the South.
That is the interpretation they place upon
his earnest language and in speakinc of a
free ballot and a fair count, especially that
sentence which was about as follows: "
I would like to hear a busle call througnout
the land demanding a pure ballot. This is a
matter above and beyond any question of par
tisanship, and I felt that I express the senti
ment of every comrade present when I declare
that a free ballot honestly expressed and fairly
counted is the main safecnard of onrinstitn.
tions, and its suppression "under any pretext
whatever cannot be tolerated.
HISCOCK A PEACE PILGEIM.
The announcement through the Associ
ated Press dispatches that Senator Hiscock
was en route to Indianapolis caused a small
commotion among the numerous correspond
ents. There is reason for believing that the
first notices that the President-elect had of
the lorthcoming visit was through the
press. Speculation is rife as to the special
mission ot the distinguished pilgrim. One of
the apparently plausible explanations of
the Senator's visit, made by a well-known
local politician, is to the effect that certain
Jew lork statesmen have carried their dis
agreements so far that a rumor has reached
them that unless they speedily harmonize
they both stand in danger of being left out
in the cold, and that Senator Hiscock has
been designated by them as a peace mis
sionary, one who brings "tidings of great
joy" and harmony.
The gentleman who puts forth this theory
ciaims to nave some good authority lor it,

with orders. The furnaces would not work
right, however, and a close down for another

TOO MUCH INDUCTION.
Akron Telephone People Want tho Electric
Street Railway Stopped.
rSrECUt. TZLEGIULM TO TUX DISPATCH.1
Akbojt, O., January 2. A suit was begun
here to-day that involves the question ot the
respective rights of telephone companies and
electric railways. The Central Union Tele
phone Company, which operates an exchange
here, with 450 subscribers, brings suit against
the Akron Electric Street Railway and Spragne
Motor Company, asking equitable relief and an
injunction.
The plaintiff says that by reason of manner of
running electric wires for street railroad its
subscribers are frequently unable to use their
telephones, false signals are rung, loud and
deafening noises are caused, both at the central
office and in the telephones of subscribers, and
the efficiency of the system is greatly im
paired. Plaintiff asks that defendant be re
quired to remedy these induction evils, and
that until itdoes so it be enjoined from making
certain projected extensions. The case is being
watched with Interest here.
