Canton unannounced ui 0 2(5 psteidnv
morning, vvulkod up to tho McKlnley
home, and depuited at 1 o' lock, leaving
nobody much the w Isei than beloio
they came. Senator Quay suld abso
lutely nothing beyond the tew woids,
"I hae come to see McKlnley," and
Mi. Pent use went no luithei than to
Intimate In a vague way that the possi
bility of getting a cabinet appointment
loi Goveinoi Hastings had led to theli
Canton tilp. Those Who undci stand
the mjstetlos ol Pennsylvania, politics
will be better able to compiehend the
leJl object of their ptesence than those
who suuounu the pieident-elect.
Both Mr. Quay and Ml. Penioso weto
asl ed lot expressions ot opinion i -spelling
the availability of Chniles
Lmotj Smith foi the tioasmj poittollo,
but evaded a dliect leplj.
While these gentlemen were with Mr
McKlnlej, Judge Joseph MeKenna, ot
San Francisco, another of the cabinet
possibilities, oi lived and succeeded
them, gaining themujor's private room,
lie lomaliiod in commence loi a long
time Aftci etiutglng he was askid
whether he expected to enter the cab

an appieelallon of his own humor,
smiled. Judge MeKenna may lemaln
until some time on Mondaj, a cltoum
stauce taken to indicate that his name
is on the McKlnlej list of availabilities,

the Texas visitors left tho city.
Majoi C. W r. Dick, who Is some
times spoken of as Mi. McKlnlej 's pri
vate bectetnij, came down fiom Cleve
land to consult with the ptesldent
tlect on the senatoiial situation In Ohio
Majoi Dick declaies positively that
theie Is nothing in the pilvate seete
taijshlp talk, and that he Is busy with
Mi. Hanna on national committee af
falis He thinks that tho governor
ought to name Mi. Hanna, bj all means,
for the acancy to be cieated bj the
lesignatlon of Senatoi Sheiman, but on
this point theie aie wide ditletences of
opinion. The ptesbuie is veiy .stiong
In favoi of an extia session of the legls
lutuie foi the puipose of electing a sen
atoi, and as that bodj is now consti
tuted Mi. Hanna might find it difllcult
to win. It Is haul to saj' Just what will
be done, but at least It Is evident that
Ohioans piopose to Indulge in a gieat

of the mattei Is possible.
A QUIET SUNDAY.
This was a quiet Sundaj- at the Mc
Klnley home and was undlstuibed to
day. Cabinet making ceased, the Ma
jors study was cleseited and he lested
and went to chuieh Webb Hajes, a
son ot the late piesldent, dined with
Mi. and Mis. McKlnley and took a
dihe with them in the afternoon, le
turnlng home on an early evening tiain.
Now that Senator Sheiman has ac
cepted the portfolio of state the rest of
the cabinet seems to center on a see
ietaiy of the -tieasuiy. Chailes Em
oi y Smith has been mentioned fiequent
ly In connection with this impuitant po
sition, but nnothei name hus betn sug
gested which will also leeelvedue con

was heie once dm Ins, and once since

The piesident-elect will be glad to lind
a suitable man for secietary of tho
tieasutj outside of New York In oidei
thot no suspicion of compilations with
Wall stieet may attach to him, but If
the best man for the place is cleaily
shown to be In New Yoik, the appoint
ment will be made fiom that state.
Tho fiiends of Geneial Algei, who
came heie fiom time to time, uie feel
ing veiv hopeful at present. The Re
publican paitj ot Michigan has piue
tlcallj' been consolidated In tavor of
Geneial Algei, according to Senatoi
Bunovvs, and In this iespect, he Is a
stionger cabinet possibility than either
Henty C Payne, of Wisconsin, oi ex
Goveinor Metiiam, of Minnesota. It
Is likely that the present week will see
the piesldent-olect teanh a definite
conclusion lespectlng the appointment
of a cabinet olllcei fiom tho Paclllc
