Vice Presidentelect Morton spent this
nftcrnoon on the floor of the two houses of
congres8.tHo \vas escorted about and Intro
duced by Uopicscntiitlvo William Walter
Phelps , of New Jersey. Mr. Morton looked
well nnd seemed very happy ' " his work of
meeting the legislators , und frankly told the
Btatcsmen us they uero introduced thnt ho
\vns "getting the hnmrof the barn , " so that
ho might bo competent to take the chair of
the president of the senate on the Ith of
March. Ho occupied a lounge on the ropub
llcan side of the seimto for an hour or more ,
during which time Mr. Phelps brought to
him und presented the various republican
nnd dcmociiitlc senators who were not en
grossed In the tariff debate. The last man Mr.
Moiton talked to in the scnuto was
Mr Quay. The clinlrtntu of the icpubllcan
national committee was writing ut his desk
when Mr Morton called to him famillmly ,
mid ho went over mid at down beside the
distinguished New Yorltor. For llftoen
minutes the ftiluio innking officer of the
senate and the head of the republican nn
tionnl committee had their heads together.
Mr. Quay explained the formation of the
committees and the leorgamration of the
senate generally , .mil added a little political
infoi million. In the houau Mr. Morton also
lingered on the republican side , and held
quite n levee At ono time there was a largo
crowd of republican and democratic mcm-
born clustcjed about him , and they were
giceteil ns warmly as if they were old
friends Mi.s. Morton accompanies her hus
band , und they will icmiiin in the city until
tbo vice piesident-ck'ct feels that bo

ho desires in relation to the duties ol the
presiding oilicer ol the senate , and rented a
residence ' 1 hose who met Mr Morton this
nftcinoon weio impressed with his eminent
executive ability , mm pi edict that ho will bo
a success in the olllco he is to occupy after
the presidential Inauguration , Mr and Mis.
Morton are stopping at the same hotel at
which aie Mr and Mis lllame. Tomorrow
night Senator Hlscock will give a dinner
in honor of Mr. Moi ton , and among his
guests will bo Mr. Hlaino and Mr. Phelps.
CAIIIN'irr hlTCL'l. VTIO.VS.
Since the meeting of the electors on last
Monday Piosiilcnt-elcct Ilainson has accom
plished something In the way of formulating
ideas us to the make up of his cabinet. Ho
has como to the conclusion that it would bo
unwise to take any man fiom the
senate , and points to the fact that
President Cleveland in callini ; three
senators to cabinet positions weakened his
party icprcsontation in the uuper house of
congress to such an extent that ho labored
under great disadvantages from the very
outset to the present timo. Picsidcnt Harri
son docs not want to give the treasury port
folio to New York , nnd if ho woio inclined to
tender a position in his cabinet to his own
state , it would bo lo Colonel John C. Now ,
who has gien him to understand that ho
neither expects nor desires a caDinct place.
If the New York demands and complica
tions were settled , the cabinet could be filled
within twenty four hours at any time now ,
although no man has been selected or given
the slightest Intimation that he will be of
fered a place in the cabinet. There are lo
bo no positions In the cabinet tendered under
four or llvo weeks , mm then they will all DO
extended to the men dcsiicd , at one time.
Mr. Hlaino will bo one of the chosen
few. There can bo no doubt now
of thai , hairing accidents , incidents and un
natural changes of mind. Mr. Wannmnulcer
is another who will have a position tendered
to him. Juhtnt this time neither Platl nor
Miller is on the slate , nnd unless there is a
consolidation on ono or the other , neither
will bo chobc'ii. If the bill creating a depart
ment out of the bureau of agilcultiiie be
comes n law , ox-Governor Kusk , of Wiscon
sin , AS ill likely be asked to tnke thai place.
A Ct'HlOl'S COINCIDKVOI ! .
The practical election of Mr. D W. Wnsh-
hurn to succeed Senator Salmi recalls the
famous contested election case of Ignatius
Donnelly nguh.st Mr. Wnshburn in the
Forty sixth congicss , Donnelly having con
tested for the election of United States sen
ator In the caucuses of the Minnesota legis
lature yestciday. Mr. Washbiirn was
elected to the Forty-sixth congress , nnd Mr.
Donnelly Uuimcd that ho had been deprived
of election by several thousand votes seemed
by the llbeiul use of Mr. Washburn's money.
Mr , Donnelly's attoincy In Washington was
the famous "Hlg" Fmley , the confidential
agent of Samuel J. Tilden during
that gentleman's lifo time. Mr.
Springer was chairman of the commit-
tea on elections , One night when Mr ,
Springer was hastily summoned to New
York , a messenger called ut his house und
dcllvcicd n mysterious package , which , on
hoinir opened , proved to bo u letter intimutmg
that if Mr. Springer would throw his influ
ence , as chuliman of thu committee , In favor
of Donnelly , It would provo gioiitly to his
llnnnctul benefit. When Mr. Springer
learned of this attempt to bribe him ho
turned ngnlnst Donnelly und supported
Wushbuin. The mutter wus promptly
brought before the house , but as Mrs.
Springer wns unnblo to Identify tlio messen
ger who brought the paekugo , nnd ns noth
ing could bo pioved against Mr. Donnelly or
Mr. Finloy , thu Investigation had to end. H
IB a striking coincidence that Donnelly
should again , after the lapse of moro than a
decade , turn up ns Mr. Wushburn's contest
ant to u Beat in congress.

The republicans of Nebraska and Wiscon
sin have set u good example lo their neigh
bors in Now ork stnto by concluding the
contiovcrsy over the cabinet appointments
nnd reaching n satisfactory agreement. In
Wisconsin It Is understood that the names of
Governor Itusk mid Henry C. Payne shall
bo presented to the president elect , who will
ho Informed that Kusk will not accept any
position but that of secretary of war or secre
tary ot agriculture , nnd that Payne wilt
not accept any ixjsitlon but that of post
master general. If General Ilairlson doslies
n postnmstor general , or secretary of war , or
secretary of agriculture from Wisconsin , ho
will not have to look any further. In
Nebraska the situation is similar. Governor
Furnusili'sires to bo sccietury of ugrlcultuio ,
but wants nothing else , nnd John M. Thurs-
ton would like to bo secretary of the inte
rior. Their friends have simply said to Gen
eral Harrison that If ho is willing lo give thu
Interior department to Nobraskn , Thurston
wants it , nnd if ho wants to give Nebraska
the agricultural department , Furnus Is the
man , Jusl who these solicitous friends mo
is not stated ,

of prohibition there.

Vice President-elect Morton visited the
capitol and held quite a levee in the lobby of
the house. Ho was introduced to the mem-
Ders by Representative Phelps , who attcr-
wauls accompanied him to the senate , where
ho was warmly greeted. Mr. Morton is
looking about the city for a desirable resi
dence , but 1ms so far failed to find ono suita
ble. In answer to a suggestion on the sub
ject , he said ho did not desiic to buy or build
n home here.
Utah and Statehood.
WASIUXOTOM , Jan. IS. Governor West , of
Utah , was heard by the house committee on
tcriitorlcs to day in opposition to the admis
sion of Utah territory ns a state. He argued
that statehood for Utah would entrench
Mormons , and he asked what check would
there bo upon the legislature if the powers of
statehood should bo granted to Utah. The
old non-Moimon residents would has'o to sell
out at a sacrifice and get away , and could
not live there then and prosper.

UOSTOX , Mass , Jan. IS. [ Special Tele
gram to Tin : Unu.l Theio was a re-
maikablc action in the common council last
night. The democrats huvo ono majority in
that body , but when it was organized last
wcoli two of the uemocratic members voted
with the republicans and aided them in
milking Hoiaco Allen picsidcnt. At lust
night's meeting some of the democrats
saw that they were in n decided major
ity , some of the members being ab
sent , and they proceeded to unseat the two
democrats who voted with the icpubhcans ,
and to put stalwarts In their places. They
now pioposo to depose President Allen ,
there beiiii ; no piovision In the city charter
to prcvcnl such action , and put a democrat
in the chair. The daring of the schema
rivals anything Tammany over conceived ,
and what makes it moro exasperating , tlio
citizens' bunds ma tied. The outcome of it
wlllpiobably bo the ultimata abolishing of
thnt branch of the city council. Sentiment
is selling strongly in that direction.

Italian prlnco who llgurcs in the Houinns
scundnl , The coricspomlcnt found the
prince surrounded by oriental luxury In the
Champs Elysccs. "I understand , prince , "
began the correspondent , "that you have
something to say In roferenca to the articles
which have appeared In the Herald , "
"Certainly 1 have , " said the prlnco with
hauteur. "Do jou know who wrote them ? "
"I wrote the articles. "
"Do you mean to tell mo you wrote those
articles about Mis. Homans and myself I"
"I do. "
"And have to to '
now you como see me
"To interview iou about them. " It took
the prince a tninuto to entirely giasp the
situation , then ho ejaculated slowly , "Mais
mon Ulcu ! Then you tnust bo the man I
have been looking for. "
"I " answered the
suppose , correspondent ,
and then the prince meditated. Ho seemed
to consider that events had taken an extra-
oidinaiy turn. "Yes , " ho resumed , "you
must bo the man I was lookIng -
Ing for , but , ahem , really jou
know you nave qulto astonished mo
by turning up of your own nccoul. The fact
Is I was thinking of sending you a couple of
seconds with a challenge. " All this had been
said standing , but here the prince suggested
taking scats Continuing , ho said , "Hut 1
am told that In America you object to lighting
duels. 1 don't suppose jou would accept
my challenge should I send jou onoi"
"No , I would not , " was the answer. "In
the llrst place because , as you icmarked , wo
Amoi leans do not believe in that soitof
thing , and secondly , because the facts which
I mentioned in my articles were ahcady moio
or less public property. "
"You had no right to speak of mo as you
did , and but for one thing I should hold you
responsible , " said the prince. /
"What is that one thing ! "
"The fact that you did not mention my
name. The article merely speaks of an
Italian prlnco In Pans. So I can't bo buro
whom jou meant , but if you had spoken of mo
as the Italian Prince Xurlodo , do you want to
know what I should have done ? "
' Yes " answered the "
, correspondent , "very
much. "
"I should have begun by challenging you
to light. If you had refused , I
should have waited before the Herald
ofllco until I found you , and
then I should have spat in your face. After
that I should have taken my cano and broken
it over your head. Do you comprehend t"
The correspondent said "yes , " and shud
dered at the danger ho had so narrowly es
caped. i"Now , however , " icsumed the
prince , "it is different. You did not mention
my name and I icgaul you merely as an in
termediary who rccoided the information
given you by others , and for which you were
not personally responsible , but mark
my words , " and a frown settled
on the prince's brow , "these gentlemen
who inspired the flist niticlo have still to
settle with me. Here are three of them. I
know whom they mo. I hereby authorize
j ou to toll them with my compliments that
the fitst time I meet them , bo where It may
in the cafe , in the theater , or on the street
I shall offer them a gross public affront. "
"Do you bchevo Homans was aware of
your liason with his wife previous to the
alleged discovery at Aixiesbahncs } " asked
the correspondent.
"Of course ho was. Had ho seen fit to
shoot me immediately on hcaiing the truth I
could not have complained. Such was his
light , but ho did nothing of the kind ; in
fact , ho remained my pretended friend. "
Before withdrawing from the noble presence
the correspondent ventuicd the parting
question ;
"Would you mind telling me , p'lnco ,
whether the recent unhappy events will in-
tcrfoio with your friendship lor the aflllcted
widow ! "
"I should prefer not to answer that ques
tion , " said his Italian highness smiling.UA
true gentleman is never indiscreet. " With
that the coi respondent took his departure ,
proud that he had appeased his highborn
enemy.

While ho thinks that it is probable that

POUT-uj-Pnij.cn , Jan. 18. Tlio steamship
Haytien Hcpublic was run into by the Hny-
tion gunboat Novollo Volflroguc on the night
of December 20 , indicting but slight jnjunes
to cither vessel. The Hnytien gunboat was
entering tbo harbor lit full speed mid could
have steamed to her anchorage without any
change of com so , but when within 200 yards
of the Haytien Republic her helm was sud
denly put to port mid remained so until
she stiuck that vessel. The gunboat
was hailed , but no answer was made ,
neither did her captain attempt to ascertain
the amount of damage done or offer assist
ance. After nsceituinintr the damage done
the Galena sent an armed boat's crew to the
offending gunboat , where the statement was
made that ttbo jamming of the tiller
ropes was the cause of the collision. It is the
opinion that it was a deliberate attempt to
sink the released ship. It is a question
whether the scheme was by other authority
than the captain of the gunboat.
The board of the Galena's officers met
next day and n demand for nn investigation
was made upon the Hajticn govcinmcnt.
These icports will bo considcied and redress
demanded.
Upon tlio return of the Galena from King
ston , Jamaica , on January U Admiral Luce
notilicd the Haytion government that ho
considered the blockade of all the northern
ports voluntarily raised because of tlio de
sertion of their post by all the blockading
squadron. Ho wrote to Secretary Whitney
that in case of the illegal seizin oof any other
American vessels ho would "demand their
release at the cannon's mouth. "

Miller will accept this appointment or not is
a matter of conjectuic. Ho is anxious to
"get in" and may tluow aside tbo little dis
appointment ho may feel in losing the more
important position and accept the tommis-
sionci.ship. Tlio tieasury portfolio is not to
