gill ' * VOL. X. BAYARD INTERVIEWED. KNOTTY QUESTIONS ASKED AND KNOT-HOLE ANSWERS GIVEN. Tl»e-Cabinet Sceanees are Enshrouded in Mystery —Congressional Clatter — Pointers in Politics —The Gist of General News. New York, Feb. 20 —The World’s Wash ington special says: Senator Bayard re turned to Washington and went directly to the senate which was in executive session. He carefully avoided th<*. general attention that follows lym as the head of Mr. Cleve land's cabineVand was not communicative to his brother senators. Afterwards he was visited at his house and asked: “Are you at liberty to say whether you are going to leave the senate or not I” Mr. Bayaid said he had nothing definite to say upon the subject. He wyd: “I greatly prefer the senate to any other position and nothing but a high sense of duty would tempt me to resign my seat there.” Mr. Bayard was asked if there was any thing about his recent interview with Mr. Cleveland that he was free to tell. Would he answer whether he was going into the cal i At <*rro» (low as the trea.*-? v natcre »i e settled f Was it going to the east or wests “He replied: “About my personal plans I never affect any mystery. The questions you ha\e asked relate to a matter not under my discretion. I con say nothing. Mr. (Cleve land has entire control of the construction of his cabiiret, and he only can, with propriety, disclose his personal preferences. I could not tell much about it if I would.’’ “What is your impression of Mr. Cleveland from your second visit?” “My first good impression is strengthened. Mr. Cleveland impresses me with his entire singleness Os purpose. He is a man who has all the advantage of a celibate’s life. He has no family ties to distract his attention and is absolutely devoted to the pub ic business.” “There is some uneasiness among the demo cratic senators about Mr. Cleveland. Some of them fear he is not going to be a good party man, ’ remarked the reporter. “I do not think that such a word as party was ever mentioned in any conversation I have had with Mr. Cleveland. The subject of Mr. Cleveland’s party ism is something I have not thought much about. It would l>e quite natural if he were not a partisan. He was flirt elected mayor of a republican city. He was elected governor by the help of many republican votes. Without the help of the independent republican’s vote he would liave been beaten in the last campaign. I am more convinced of that since I have learn* d of the compactness of the dynamite or;, ■m izations of New York. They were undoub - edlyanayed against the democratic party. The power and extension of these societies I have learned since 1 introduced in the senate a resolution denouncing the recent attempt to blow up the house of parliament in Lon ! -il My mail since has lx*en burdened with anony mous .threatening letter-.” “Do you think the independents should be recognized in tho cabinet?” “I have never heard ’hat they desired any recognition. The uprising of the independ ents in the campaign 1 regard as one of the most encouraging things to those who love re publican institutions. I should think it would belie their position to group them as a mem- ; her of a distinct differing party organ! ati* , The Times (Albany) special says: “I’resi- ( dent-elect Cleveland was not bothered with; any visitors till the evening. Then he re- 1 ceived J. H. Oberly, chairman of the demo- ' cratic state committee of Illinois, anti A. C. ■ Hesing, of the Stoats Zeitung < >f Chicago,who , passed the evening with him. Mr. Cleveland was in gcxxl humor, having written a good deal of the copy of his inaugural address dur ing the day, and finished considerable pri vate correspondence. Senator Lamar, of Mississippi, whose ab sence from the senate in Washington led many to think lie might. »x>ssibly lx, journe'- ing to Albany to talk about the postmaster generalship, did not come here. More than ava the Albany politicians are confident that Danu i Manning is to i?e secretary of the treas ury,” William C. Whitney, of New York, who had a chat with the president-elect, is said to have then earnestly advocated the selection of Mr. Manning. I*he Times’ Washington special says: “There seems to be only one belief in the sen ate and that is that Mr Bayard has consented to be secretary of state under Mr. Cleveland. From a trustworthy source it is learned that Mr. Cleveland reached a conclusion some time ago, and offered the place to Mr. Bay an 1 during <me of Ids visits to Albany. Having considered the invitation Mr. Bayard intima ted his willingness to accept the appointment as a matter of duty, and then unfolded to Mr. Cleveland his ideas about what the for eign policy of the new administration should be. Mr. Cleveland is said to have listened at tentively to the suggestions of the Delaware• senator, and when Mr. Bayard went to Al bany he did so for the purpose of reading that part of Mr. Clevelands inaugural ad dress which relates to the foreign policy of the government. From the same source it is learned also that Mr. Cleveland’s address has been entirely sketched out, and that other parts of it w< uld perhaps be submitted to other gen tlemen who are to head other departments be fore it is given to the public on March 4. “The talk is now that so much of the address as relates to the interior department will be read first by Senator Lamar, and that he will have that department instead of the postoffice. Mr. Lamar does not indicate by any expression that he is to be considered as a cabinet officer, but rather discourages the good-natured terms of the address adopted by those who have sufficiently intimate relations with him to permit them to attempt to draw him out by pleasantries. Democrats who wish to see the cabinet made up of men of tolerably equal ability are hoping that the re port that Mr. Morse of Mas achusetts, is to be secretary of the nt wy, as telegraphed from Albany, is not true.” Washington Notes. Washington, Feb. 20.—From a statement of expenses incurred under the law providing for the appointment of special deputy mar shals, supervisors and chief supervisors which was sent to the house, it a; ipeurs that of $1,973,716 which ha-, been applied for that purpose there was expended in the state oi New York $980,788, or fifty per cent, of the whole amount It was distributed between the judicial districts as follows: South ern, $618,128; eastern, $209,561; northern, $158,099; total, $980,788.

Nc money was used in Connecticut, lowa, Kan sas, Maine, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, % New Hampshire, North Carolina, Rhode 4 Island, Vermont, or Wisconsin. Senate. ® Washington, Feb. 20.—0 n motion of Mr 5 Sherman, the senate adopted a resolution t< A, accept the bust of ex-benator Forster, of Con necticut, and providing its fixture on a pedes* ' tai in the vice president’s room. Bills were passed removing the jx>]itical dis* , abilities of Gardner and Montgomery, ol ‘ Georgia, and Star, of Virginia. A joint resolution was adopted appropri ating $250 to defray the expenses of a joint congressional committee on the inaugural ’ ceremonies. The bill to “quit titles” to settlers along the Des Moines river lands came up uefore the senate, and Mr. Lapham continued his opposi tion to the measure. A motion of Mr. Lapham referring the question involved in the bill to the courts for ■ ad judication was lost. Mr. McPherson stated that he would move ) to indefinitely postpone the bill. Mr. Lap''am said he would yield to the sen -1 ator to make that motion now. The offer was ■ .•■ <•(•. .;ed but the motion was lost. > ?Ir. Van Wyck moved that th* . cnater»ro- * <’ to the consideration of the bill to declare - forfeiture of the Toxa pacific land grant. > ending the vote Mr. Plumb advocated the ■ ag of a time for a vote on the Des Moines » riv-r bill. Che senate then took up the Texas Pacific 1 land grant bill. ; The senate committee on appropriations Dave completed the postoffice appropriation bill and reported it to the srnai All legis lation incoporated in the bill by the house is ’ stricked out.

London, Feb. 20.—Affairs appear to be in , I a critical condition on the Nile, so far as Gen eial Buller’s force is concerned at G ibat. He h«a- retreated ujxjn Abu Klea, before a 5 force of 9,000 men with five long-range guns, sent against him by the inahdi. The retreat . v/as ordered when the ma in body of the Arabs , was twenty miles distant. Before leaving Gubat General Buller re , moved from the Gordon steamers their ma -5 chinery, and rendered them useless to the Arabs. He has less than 2,000- effective , men, and 1,500 carnets. The water supply is inadequate to supply them, . and further retreat is neces sary. Gen. Buller is supfiosed to be awaiting orders to either retire to Gakdul or to advance , t< > Berber and join Gen. Brackenbarry’s forces. The probability is that Gen. Buller will retreat upon Gakdul wells and thence to Korti tx» join the force under Gen. Wolseley. ft is said that the mahdi himself is travel ing in stat/* with from 40,000 to 60,0(D follow ers toward Me:emneh. The, force encountered* by Gen.

Several TranNa<*tions of William H. Van* (lerbilt and .Jay Gould. New York, Feb. 20.—01 d Commodore i Vanderbilt would never have anything to do 1 with Jay Gould. He looked uj>on the little 1 man as an ill-omened person. William H. Vanderbilt’s ill-fortune dates from his partici pation with Gould in stock schemes. The I first serious blow that Vanderbilt suffered I was in the famous operation of “pegging” i Lake Shore. The idea of Gould was that the exhibition of great strength would inspire the I public with confidence. He caused it to be i given out that’Vanderbilt :n 1 himself were . ready to take the whole iteial stocks of rail ■ roads. The stocks were piled in on them in i enormous quantities. Tne time arrived , when the men were obliged to suc ; ciunb, or, rather when Gould quietly sold out j: on Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt got out the best : way he could, but the operation cost him $12,- . I 000.000. . | Somehow or other Gould smoothed it over > * with Vanderbilt. About a year ago the i * market again required support, and Vandei . b it was asked again to look out for his prop ' erty. The result was as before. The trial i was at some expense, $2,000,090 or $3,000,000 it is said. It is known that he asked Vander bilt to come to the rescue of the market once more. Vanderbilt had been through the mill twice, and declined without thanks. Gould was angry and employed every means to job Vau derbilt; the persuasive power of Gowen induced Vanderbilt to put a vast amount of money in Reading. The investment is computed to have cost him $10,000,(XX). The $2._>.000,000 ■*iput in the South Pennsylvania railroad pro- Tject is counted in Wall street as a pra/< ical i loss. William H. I'anderb.'lt had at one j time $60,000,000 of gov erament bonds, but he was compelleil to use a large portion of them I in straightening out the aflairs of Lis sons I and protecting himself. At last accounts he j hud $32,000,000. Vanderbilt is keeping ins [own counsel nowadays, and Wall street is I temping an eye on him for the next move he J makes. He has not taken his attention en tirely from the market, for he is needy every day an interesting figure in a brok Fs office under the Langham hotel, near his residence. Fire H?cnr«l. Philadelphia, Feb. 20. —A fire was dis covered in a five-story brick struct me at 125 1 Chestnut street, occupied by Stevens'.n & Co., Gatz & Stratton, Richard A.

He tried to ai red her, but the depot policeman told him he could arrest any other woman, but his wife hee *uld not. Then Tuttle said lugubriously: “She gone and so !is my money. I will go back to New Haven and go to work.” Before be si ar ed from Hartford he took a big jug of whisky, presumably to drown his soi jws. Wlr nhe reached ibis city he was drunk, and was at once la<en to the station l house. Turning the Tables. San Francisco, Cal. Feb. 20.—G. W.

The party had a very trying experience. ' 1 Ihe bodies were brought down the canyon in a mournful procession single file, lashed upon sleds, as follows: Mattie Hickey, Timo thy Madden, J remialt Regan, David B.
