In the House today RepresentativeMcCloary obtained unanimous consentfor the immediate consideration of abill to appropriate 3000 for tho purposeof clearing the Potomac River of ice

There is reason to believe the President looks on Mr Fairbanks as goodrunning mate To his friends howeverthe President has said within the lattow days he does not propose tfrany hand in the nomination of a candidate for Vice President He said hewill leave this matter entirely alonoand let the convention settle it
Senator Platt fresh from scene ofOdella triumph In New York
came to the White House early thismorning He admitted he had a longconference with the President on Em-pire State politics Further than thathe vouchsafed no information Whilethere are mutterings from New Yorkto the effect that the Platt contingentwill have Its inning at the polls manyshrewd politicians think this unlikelyThey believe there Is a pretty definiteunderstanding between Platt and Odolland the President and that the factionsare more nearly united than supposed
