There were several things found in the Christ- mas stockings this year of a number of the prominent government officials that gave the recipients a good deal of satisfaction. Perhaps in some cases the knowledge of what the stock- Rs contained was not kept a profound secret In from the owners until Christmas morning. spite of that fact. however, the Christmas was more complete when it was based on the knowledge that after the 4th of March they would be able to step down and out from official position into a good desirable berth in | private life. Gifts of this sort have not been | from 5th street to Borden avenue, generally distributed, but enough have been sent around to enabie a good proportion of those outside of the civil service to look for- ward to the coming change in administration lief. POST OFFICE OFFICIALS. This is especially the case with several of the heads of the departments, Postmaster Gen- | eral Wanamaker, for exampie, is antious to get | into the traces again and assume the ag ment of bis large business in Philadelphia. His first private secretary, Marshall Cushing, hes already made arrangements to engage in active newspaper work, with headquarters in city. He will ‘also be interested in one or more publications, work out into something shapely. As Mr. Cushing's ealary came entirely from the pocket of Mr. Wanamaker and he receives nothing from the public treasury his connection with the department will coase when Mr. Wana- maker retires, ‘THE ASSISTANTS. The firet assistant, Col. Whitteld, has already left the public service for private business. The second assistant, Mr. Bell, bas made no definite arrangements as yet {urther than he intends to take a rest for afew months before nto ansthing else The third assistant, Mr. Hazen, has also not formed any definite plans, but he will probably continue to make bis home in this city, where he has lived for so many years Mr. Rathbone. the fourth assistant, intends to devote hiv attention to his private affairs. He will remain here until the early summer, then go to his cottage at Oakiand, Md.,and then return to his home in Hamilton, Ohio. ‘The assistant attorney general, Judge Tyner, will resume the practice of his profession in this oi which was inter- rupted by his appointment to his present post- tion. THE INTESIOR DEPARTMENT. In the Interior Department, the Secreta Gen. Nobie, has already had the desk in his law office in St. Louis dusted off and the rooms cleaned and made ready for his use af soon after the 4th of March as hecan get there.

The commissioner of patents, Mr. Simonds, is going back to his home in Connecticut and to his law practice, It is quite probuble that when the question of the election of @ anccessor to Gen. Hawley in the Senate comes before the state legislature, that Mr. Simonds’ name will be prominent. ‘The Indian commissioner, Gen. Morgan, has already accepted the position of corresponding secretary of the American Baptist Home Missionary Societies, one of the largest organizations of the kind in the country. Ex-Gov. Stone, the commissioner of the general land office, bas made no definite plane for the future, ‘The assistant comminioner, Mr. Rose, will probably open a law office in this cite and whi utilize the knowledge gained in his official career by making a specialty of land cases, GEN. RAUM UNCERTAIN. Itis not known exactly what plans Gen. Raum, the commissioner of pensions, has made, but it is understood that he will resume the practice of law m this city. Gen. Shields, the assistant attorney general, hopes toform a legal partnership in this city. ‘he comtuissioner of railroads, Mr. Taylor, will return to his home in Madison, Wis., where he will look after his private business, He is the president of the Wisconsin State Jour- nal Company, and is extensively engaged in the banking and real estate businces, Mr. Robert P. Porter, the commissioner of the census, has newspaper interests and other interests, and so he does not look forward to an idle time even after he leaves the census of- fice. The commissioner of education, Prof. Harris, is a well-known educator. He bas made no definite plans for the future, but be has a large amount of work of an educational and hterary character on hand and does not expect to have any idle time. -e- THAT INTERVIEW. It Causes Some Excitement Among the Politicians—Cabinet Gosstp. The publication this morning of an alleged interview with Mr. Cleveland, in which he makes public his opposition to Mr. Mur- phy’s election to the Uniled States Sen- ate, bas caused considerable talk among politicians in Washington. The interview as an authorized expression of Cleveland's views, though it is very well known that be Goes not favor Mr. Murphy's election, bas caused surprise. It was not thought that Mr. Cleveland would so frankly express himself on the subject. That he opposes Murphy, sane- tions the activity of some of his friends in the opposition and wouid like to see Murphy de- feated has been very generally understood, but is clorest friends here have not thought that he would take part persoually in the contest. Politicians here donot believe that Mr. Murphy can be defeated and they believe that Mr. Cleveland appreciates the fact. Hill and iis friends declare with absolute confidence that Murphy will be elected and there is a very strong intimation that if Mr. Cleveland fights him openly it will only make things a little more disagreeable during the new administra tion, ‘At present Mr. Cleveland bas no personal representative in the Senate who is fong ex- petieuced and in position to act a» leader. uid he succeed in the election of a personal friend from New York it would not improve the situation greatly, as no new man, however capa- ble, can figure very prominently in that bods.
