He is indorsed n °t only by the business world, but hy many labor organizations as well, The direct claim .is made in nearly all the mass of letters and telegrams which have reached Major McKinley respecting Mr. Gage, that the dii'ect effect of his appointment will be to hasten and render certain the restora¬ tion of confidence. It may be safeiy assumed that Major McKinley has decided at present upon six men for his cabinet, though he has not formally tendered a.l of them port- tonos.

Alger s appointment as secretary of war is probable but by no means certain. I he one remaining portfolio which is not likely to be ten- dered before the middle or last of I< eb- nary, will doubtless go to a New Yorker or a Pennsylvanian.
