He reined in his horse and pleasantly asked them they would not like a Thunkygiving present. The little ones promptly responded in the affir- mative, and the Secretary made glad their hearts by tossing to each of them a dollar, and then rode on without waiting to receive their bashful but hearty thanks for the gift. ‘The Sec relary distributed about two hundred and fiity Thanksgiving turke Rescuep.—The Navy department has re- ceived a telegram announcing the arrival of the Powhatan at Key West, with allon board well, including the men who were rescued from Roneador island.

He said he hoped that peace wouid be preserved, though he was not inclined to discuss the situa tion at length, GEN. EATON RESK Gen. John Eaton, the commissioner of education, has tendered his resignation to the President, and in his letter, dated November 25th, he says: “The overwork, withont vacations, which this office, with its insufficient clerical force, has seemed to me to demand, has so far impaited my health that I desire to accept the presidency ot u college, where I may reasonably hope for less exacting Jabor and for full r n to health.” CouLp Nor STAND THE PresscRe.—John M. Ashfield, an assistant messenger in the record and pension division of the surgeon gen- eral’s office, has resigned. In a letter to Secre- tary Endicott, tendering his resignatior Ashfield explains his reasons by saying: the last three years I have been insulted, mis- represented und other people’s work put upon ine, und the evil disposed persons in this divi- sion “aided, abetted and encouraged to do the same, and put up jobs aad form conspiracies to put me out of the office. When I was sick, and when more than I could do was put upon’ me, I paid for having it done out of my sixty dol” lars per month. A SIGNAL CoRPS CHANGE.—Second Lieut, John P. Finley, signal corps, has been relieved from duty at Fort Myer, Va., and ordered to duty in the office of the chief signal officer. Mr. Eaton DENIES THE CHARGES.—Civil Service Commissioner Eaton when asked what he had to say concerning the charges made with the object of deteating his confirmation by the Senate said: “Nearly every charze—every one beneath my notice—is not only fulse, but 80 ahorveighted that lam surprised that any per- son should notice them. ‘he records and re- portsof the commission will demonswute the falsehood of mostof them. It need not be as- sumed the author was mialicious, for he may have been blinded by some dissppolatment or vanity.” THe CABINET MEETING AND SUBSEQUENT RECEPTION BY THE PREsIDENT.—The regular cabinet‘meeting, which was postponed from esterday, was held at eleven o'clock to-day. ‘here was a full attendance. In consequence the President's public reception, which is usu- ally held on Friday at hult-past one o'clock, was deterred until three o'clock.

THE PRESIDENT NOT AFRAID. He Will Attend the Vice President’s Funeral Regardless of Risk to Him- self. Yesterday several prominent democrats, per sonal friends of the President, called upon him and suggested that {t might be dangerous for him to attend the funeral of Vice President Hendricks. They suid that the public mind was somewhat excited, and that the press was commenting upon the fact that the death of President Cleveland would restore the republi- can party to power. This they were afraid might tempt some person of the Guiteau stripe to attempt the lile of the President, Mr. Cleve- land’s visitors did not like, they said, to discuss the question of his death, but they thought it their duty to advise him to guard his life care- fully, as it was now more important than ever that he should not ineur any risks. President Cleveland replied that he did not fecl called upon to consider the question of per- sonal risk in the discharge of what he eunsid- ered to be his duty. & One of the gentlemen who saw the Presiden aman who has tor years been a warm perso! friend of Mr. Hendricks, in talking to @ STAR reporter, said: “The “President's course in regard to the deuth ot Mr. Hendricks und bis deiermination to pay the dead Vice President ull the respect and honor possible, without gard to any personal considerations, will endear him to the friends of Mr. Hendricks. Its etfect will be to bury all feeling of dissatis- {motion thut hus ativen and to make the demo- crate parry a unit, not only in 1s suppor but ln tts affection; tor Mr, Clevelund.” o——— Mr. Hendrickw’ Relatives in this City.

VIEWS OF VARIOUS PUBLIC MEN—REPRESENTA- TIVE SPRINGER’s TALK WITH THE PRESIDENT ON THE SUBJECr, ‘The sudden death of Mr. Hendricks was not the same surprise to all of his close friends that {t was to the public. His failing health has been noticed since the 4th of March, and it was feared by many of his closer friends that he would not prove physically strong enough for the task the party would impose upon him in case of a contest between the Senate and the administration. Within the past few months he had become quite deaf, his physical condi- on Was not good, and he experienced great dificulty in remembering names and faces. Senators and Representatives, and public men generally, express deep regret at his death just as he was’ about to enter upon his public Ihe death of the Vice President calls up again for serious consideration the question of providing for the presidential succession in ease of the death of both the President and the Vice President. ‘The failure of the Hoar bill to pass in the last Congress leaves the matter just asit stood when Mr. Arthur succeeded to the idency. There is even agreater political interest 1n the question to-day, asin the event of the death of the President, a republican President pro tem. of the Senate would become the #resident unul an election could be held. THE PRESENT LAW. i The sections of the Revised Statutes bearing upon this subject are as follows: Section 146.—I, f yemoval, death, resignation or gata seaman, ceth rennin of the Uniied Staies the President of the Seuate. or, Ifthere is none, then the Speaker of the house of Representatives, iorthe time being, shall wet as Pres- than uutil the disability is removed ora President elected. sec. 147.—Whenever the office of President and Vice President both become vacant tie Secretary of ‘State s\ all forthwith cause a notification thereof to be made to the Executive of every State, and shall alsu cat the same to be published in at least one of 73 printed in each - tate. ‘be uotiticatlon shall specify that electors of a President and Vice President of the United ‘St.tes shall be uppointed or chosen in the several slates as folluws: First—Li there shall be the space of two months yet to ensue between che date of stich notification and the first Wednesday in December then next ensuing such notification sail specify that the electors shall be ap. pointed or chosen within thirty-four days preceding such first Wednesday in Deceniber. s Secoud—If there shull not, be the space of two mouths between the date of notification aud such first Wednesday in December. and it the tetm {or which the President and. Vice Presh.eut dustin office Were elected will “not expire on the third day of March next eusuing, the notification shall specity that the electors shall be appointed oF chosen With Bh thirty-four duys precedi. g the first Weduesday in De- cember in wie year n uing. But if there shall Hot be the space of two months between the date of sich uotideation aud the lirst Wednesday in Decem= ber then next ensuing. and ir the term for whicu tho President und Vice President last im office were elected willexpire on the isd day of March bext en- Suing the notiflc.tion’ shail not specify that electors are to be ap olnied or choses THE COMING SENATE CAUCUS, The republican Senators will hold a caucus on Friday or Saturday of next week to select a President pro tempore of the Senate. The gen- eral impression is that there will be a pretty sharp fight for the nomination. The tbree candidates will be Edmunds, Sherman, aud Logan, Mr, Logan's trienus are very anxious to secure his selection for the place, which they claim for bim in consideration of his recent de- feat. Mr. Edmunds will not press his own claim, but his iriends will expect him to be elected as a matter of course. It is thought (hat tue irritating question rulsed during the last campaixn as to Edmunds’ loyalty to the party nominees will be brought up in the cau- cus, and will arouse consideruble feeling. Sen- ator Hoar, it is suid, will oppose Edmunds, and will bea’ strong supporter of sherman.’ Tue light, it is expected, will be protracted and de- termined. Tue rivalry between Sherman and Logan wiil be purticularly sharp, as the friends oleach are bucking him tor the republican nomination in 1888, and will look to the prefer- meut at this time tor gprestige in the conven- on. The feeling on both sides, 1t is thought, will be so great that neither can get the nom: ination of the caucus, and Edmunds will be chosen, It will be made to appear, however, that his choice is merely upon the grounds that he made agood presiding officer last ses- stun, and tuut it will nL give him any prestige in the future. REPRESENTATIVE SPRINGER AND THE PRESI- DENT. Representative Springer expressed the opin- fon that Edmunds would be chosen as Presi- dent pro tempore. Logan, he thought, would probably decline, as he would naturally feel a delicacy about accepting @ position thus fallin; to him by accident, after he had been rejecte: for iuby the people. “The situation would be very serious just now,” he said, “should any- thing happen to Mr, Cleveland. Just lust week J called on him and suggested ‘that he call at- tention in his message to the uncertainty con- cerning the succession to the Presidency and Vice Presidency, and recommend the e of some act that would definitely settle the mat- ter. Thad quite a long talk with him on the subject, und he was not quite sure whether he would mention the subject or leave it to Con- gress to foliow out the guggestions upon the snnieee made by his predecessors.” “Do you think Congress will pass a law of the kind this session?” asked THE STAR. “Yes; I think the House will pass practically thesame bill which od the Senate (known as the Hoar bill), and Texpect the Senute will agree to it, as they passed it unanimously last Congress, and itis burdly likely that. Mr. Hoar would let Lis party feeling appeur_to influence him tw change so lar as to oppose his own bill.” MEPRESENTATIVE RYAN SAYS THERE IS ONLY ONE LIFE BETWEEN THE PRESIDENT AND CHAOS. “It will Impress upon Congress very forcibly the necessity of some action to regulate the succession to the Presidency,” said Representa- tive Ryan (rep.), of Kansas. “It isa very pecu- Har situation, “No Vice President, no President pro tem. and no Speaker of the House. Only one life between the peoele: and chaos. The re- publicans will elect a President pro tem., and. then there will be but one man between the minority party and the power they desire, The hand of the assussin has been impelled by less temptation, It is an admonition to Congress not to neglect so important a thing as the question of succession,” SENATOK RANSOM’S VIEWS. Senator Ransom said toa Star reporter who called upon him at the Metropolitan last even- ing: “I am greatly grieved. Mr. Hendricks’ death is a shock to the country at large as well Qs to. the party. He was a man of the people. He was liked ‘in the south because he was one oi the few northern men who sympathifed with the southern people, the north had conti- dence in him and the west loved him because he was theirson. His death I look upon as the loss of one of the great men who cannot well be spared, but I do not fear that it will cause any disturBanceof the political situation. ‘Ofcourse tue republicups will elect the presidiug otticer of the Senaf& Senator Edinonds, I presume, will be their choice, He is the ablest man they have in the Senate.” WHAT SENATOR PUGH SAYS. “The political situation is not soseriously com- plicated,” said Senator Pugh to a STAR reporter last evening. “We feel the death of Mr. Hen- dricks more from reasons that it will disturb the political condition of affairs. The repub- licans will, of course, elect x president pro tem- re of the Senute—Mr, jmunds, probably. if anything should happen to President Cleve- land ‘before the Senute meets, it would be a serious thing, of course, But his death would not of necessity put the government in the hands of the opposing party. The republican President pro tempure of the Senate would not become President of the United States. He would merely exercise the office of President in @ perfunctory way unt the Secretary of State could cull an election, and under no circum- stances could he hold the office more than sixty days. He could not change the cabinet, or in uny Way affect the order of the executive departments,” SENATOR CONGER ON THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SUBJECT. “The only thing to be done now,” said Senator Conger, “is for us to elect a President pro tem- pore of theSenate.

Affairs could go along @ week or 80 until the Senate met and a ‘ice President chosen, and then a general elec- tion could be held and ‘the vacant offices filled.” SOLICITOR M’CUE THINKS THE ACTING PRESI- DENT WOULD SERVE THE TERM OUT. Solicitor of the Treasury McCue expressed the opinion toa STAR reporter that the President ro tempore of the Senate would, in case of the leath or disability of the President become ident of the United States in fact, and not merely acting President, His term would then defor four years unless his senatorial term ex- red before that time. He added, however, t he hud not looked into the matter recently: OTHER VIEWS. Senator Sawyer did not see anything serious in the situation. The change in the presiding officer would noteffect the policy of the Senate, and he did not think the Senate would make ‘Sny factional fight upon the administration, nator Berry, or Arkansas, expressed the deepest regret ‘at the death of the Vice Presi- dent. He could not guess what the political effect would be, but did not anticipataany thing Rey serious. tative McAdoo says he thinks it $rould not be wise to put a strong partisan like nso near the presidency under the exist- Ing circumstances. | It would arouse too much feeling among his followers, who are of the most tadical class, and might make serious trouble between the Senate and the President, and dis- turb affairs too much. It would be better, he thinks, to choose a man like Senator Edmunds, Tepresenting the calm, judicious and conserva- tive element of the party. Senator Allison expresses the opinion that it would only be natural for the Senate to elect Mr. Legan President pro tempore, but he has his doubts about the Illinois Senator accepting it, a8 the duties are not suited to him. Senator Morgan expressed the opinion that Mr. Edmunds would be chosen, and said hedid not think Mr. Logan would accept oo The Cradle of Liberty Damaged.
