A-steady stream of sightseers and bridal coup les sauntered up qd down the- half- moon walks which lead from the iron fence to the porte cochere of the Ex ecotiVe Mansion. -No Coniressmen or office seekers were visible, for no one ts received on cabinet days. I was waiting for the official familv of the President, as ibey came to Cabinet meeting. First I saw a carriage, with prancing horses, driving in at the gate. A blonde man of fifty odd. dressed in dapper clothes, was its sole occupant. He had a heavy straw- colored mustache, bright blue eyes and rosy cheeks. I noticed that his yellow gloves were new and that his clothes had been made by a good tai lor. 'I his man was Secretary Morton. the horny-handed farmer of the ad ministration. The next arrival was the Secretary of State. Judge Gresh am looks more like a farmer than Morton. He walks from the State De partment to the White House at cab inet meetings, and he has a way ' of pushing himself along with right.an gled gestures which is peculiar' to himself. He came up the walk to the porc& with a look of.determinaUon written all over him,, which seemed to say : "I am going to get tnere by and by. I noticed that.' gray . hairs have crept rapidly in and out among the black' strands of hip hair and beard, and that he is ' now Aon .he. edge of growing old. He sits at he" right of the President in his cabinet meetings, and he usually comers Into. them.about five minutes late.-' As tue door closed behind Judge Gresham I saw the At torney General walk into the White House grounds. A little sober 8ta dent-like man, with a gray mustache and iron gray hair, he came . gingerly along, apparently absorbed in thought. Olney is one of the reserved mn of the United States, and if it were not irreverent I might call him and .Sec retary Bissau the clams of the cab it net. Next came the rotu nd Bissell, in a carriage. He is rarely seen , wali ing on the streets of Washington. The Postmaster General has been compar ed to Preident Cleyeland, but he is a much bigger man than the President. He is noted, for his reticence in re gard to himself and .his .: department, and the cold chills corrugate his fat back until it looks Jike a washboard when he is asked to make & statement for newspaper publication. He is perhaps the closest to the President of any man in the cabinet. Danie Lamoot followed Bissell up the White House steps, .He.baknot aged in be. past-eight years and. his. mustache is the same wiry red: Secretary La mont is. always weUdiesseand the creases in his pants"!are clearly de fined. Next came Secretary Carlisle a tall angular man withr a student's stoop. There is nothing of the oleag inous politician about him, and he is big enough to be simple. The Seo retary of the Interior rqdop.on a reUry of the Navy ?ras the last of the lot. Mr. Herbert dresses plainly and is thoroughly democratic in all hit ways. The show was over, and the Cabinet waa probably already sitting with Its 'pqaderons' weight on the bond question. : The Wliosn tariff bill booms on its .triumphant way through the H6qsgv Tbe' county U-hafiBg a carnival of party eloquence on either side. an bau(lance of campaign ma- teriai to bs salted dowa for summer use, and lots of epigram and repartee that will p&ss and be forgotten like the bbubles that explode upon the frog ponds,' cal lous b reast. The re al question is as to the measure's fate when it comes before the Senate, where neither whip nor spur, neither gag nor threat will rule. Evidence accumulates that free coal and free sugar and free iron ore will not be as strong in the Senate as they seem now in the House.': Free coal espe cially appears to be loosing vigor ev ery day. A simple remedy fur our present financial, ills could have been prescri bed by Congress. But there are. too many doctors at the Capitol for in teligent consultation and practical agreement. Hence, JDr. Carlisle had to take the case in hand and do the best he could. It is by no means a very serious . prescription that he . de tef mined upon. The bond issue is, on the coatrarj, regarded with a good deal of , favor. At the Treasury De partmeat, the mooted obstacles to a bond issue find no expression among high officials, and the work of prepar ing plates for tne bonds goes rapidly forward. : The; people. of the country, too, have apparently 'not stopped to consider the iquibbles of the law. -.Already 'offers aggregating much more than the fifty million issue have been received; and each mail brings in additional bids. ' Representatfve Tarsney, of the Ways an.. Means Committee, says there iaP a misconception regarding thVinco'me.4V,"The Jrill exempts all lncomtrs-i of $4.000 : and less,vvbe says.
