CHOICE OP THE CAUCUSES.

The Rounding-Up Work of Candidates Among the Legislators Yesterday. Senator Voorhees Lends a Helping Hand to McDonald Sayre Nominate! by the Repub licans fof Speaker Other Nominations. The Grand notel lobby throughout all of yes terday and late into the night had a mass of Democrats, legislators, politicians and heelers discussing the probabilities of success or failure in no amiable mood. Coming fast upon the discouraging decision of the Supreme Court enough to lead a few better-thinking and more honestlyadvising Democrats to say that Green Smith ought to retire and submit to the inevitable was a remarkable editorial in the Sentinel. This, in tended to strengthen some of the weaker brethren, traduced the Supreme Court judges mostvillainously, and caused a feeling of hopelessness to overwhelm the party's representatives. Among the leader were curses loud and deep for a time, until they had time to reflect, and following that went forth the order to make no reference to the article, shadowing fatality to the fulfillment of schemes that had been long preparing. Away from the rooms where the advfsers were con tinually in secret council there was but little curb put upon expressions which showed a respect for the court and denunciation of those who would prostitute it to party uses. "It is an outrageous attack," said a Democrat, "and the more I think the more hideous does its scandalous spirit appear. r Further on there was a partisan full of wrath, who, prefacing his prediction with a violent oath, remarked: "After this we wont elect anybody," and in another group a leader, but one more conservative than the rest, said: "The jig is up. L am ready to expect anything now." For a time the feeling became so intense that the button-holing can didates for place and senatorial gossip were lost. Late in the afternoon the first effect began to wear away, leaving an undercurrent of despondency and quiet damning of the party organ. When ques tioned, any Democrat whose view is worth hav ing would seek to avoid the topic, as if it carried dreadful consequences with it. If any sympa thized with the motive that inspired the article he was not rash in expressing it. Many went so far as to hope for some action that would bring punishment to the writer of the screed. It had an effect, too, on the possibilities of to day in lessening the heretofore rabid desire to support Smith in the presiding officer's chair of the Senate. It was told with the usual assurance that Smith would hold onto the position until ousted bv quo quarranto, but an uncer tainty could be detected as to the efficacy of that plan from which so much has been heretofore expected by the guerillas. "Your purpose to force Colonel Kobertson into a quo warranto pro ceeding still holds eood'" was asked of a member of the secret council. 'Green Smith will preside over tho Secato to morrow." . .- "And throughout the session" "That I cannot say. The Senate will be or ganized, as agreed upon, to wait developments. Nobody's seat will be questioned at the outset The roll of members will bo made up of those holding certificates. It depends upon what the House does in the way of contest before we show our purpose. We are ready for any emergency. The meaning of this is that, for a few days, at least, nothing of a revolutionary character will be resorted to, unless it is the adoption of the new rules in regard to the eovernine of the benate. One of these provides for the committee on election to have precedence over anv other business when it is ready to make its report It goes so far as to require any one on the floor at that time to give way to the . chairman of the committee when he chooses to be heard. The other rules relate to stripping the presiding officer of his powers in recognizing a member who may demand attention for political purposes, and to placing the appointment of the committees within the control of the Demo cratic majority, ihese proposed regulations, solely in the interest of the Democratic party, have been considered and reconsidered in caucus until the interlinations on the manuscript are more numerous than the original lines. If thought brings perfection to rascally political methods, the Democrats have attained it in the rules that will probably be introduced to day. At one time during yesterday it was de termined not to wait upon the contingencies the House might offer, and to raise at once the eligibility of W. N. McDonald's election by object ing to the call of his name by the Secretary. It is probable thi3 will occur in the way of a threat, for new affidavits, or old ones re-formed, and supposed to be signed by Bent Hughes, of Bedford, were placed in the hands of the guerillas. Jbor a long time Urem merman, who expects to secure McDonald's seat, and Hughes were carefully reviewing a copious manuscript iu the Grand Hotel lobby. On the assurance of an adviser, though this proceeding is to be deferred unless the conspirators change their nunds before the assembling of the Sen ate. He was equally prompt in saying, "We are ready for contests with stacks of affidavits, and the greater livelihood is that the whole batch will be referred to the committee on elections to be considered and disposed of under the rule of privilege arranged for this purpose. Araonff the notable men in the lobby at times during the day were W. D. Bynum and ex-Senator McDonald. Their presence sugeested sena torial possibilities, which for the past two days have had a decided leaniog to the latter, as far as gossip ' went. But this talk of his certainty in getting the cauens nomination reminded those familiar with the little forces to mold opinion as coming through orders from the room where Ser.ater Voorhees and others manipulated the wires. In group after croup of gossipers one would run across McDonald pipers until he was impressed that tne ex-Senator had only to ask to feceive. A feature of this apparently raaaufactured boom came up in a conversation with a McDonald man who said: "The ex-Senator will be the nominee without a doubt Gray has withdrawn. He will no doubt keep a check on a Stimcieni nuraoer oi ins Bianco irienua to enable him to form a nucleus about some other candidate, and, as for himself personally, he is not looking to any contest If Bynum knows what is good for him, h w.ll keep out of the trouble. He has had sufficient glory in a re-election to Congress." It was not long until this McDonald favor was stroncly modified by the earnestness with which Bynum kept himself before the con8tantly-changin2 groups. He is working a wire that is intended to pull two ways. "To day William S. Holman will be here," as a gentleman remarked, "to look over the field, and if he finds the circumstances favorable, to be come an avowed candidate." Those who observe the law of poskibilitiea think hi presence means a combination with Bynum to fight McDonald, with the chance of assistance from Gray. But there is no certainty that the Governor has become self-sacrificing. He slips into th$ lobby after every other candidate has become tired and in his quiet manner chats with legislators who come acro-js his path. "I do not think Governor Gray is out of the race," said one of his admirers. "I left him but recently, and he did not talk as if he had an . object to groom a dark horse." A coloring was given to this by the expression from another friend: "McDonald may get the nomination, but it will not come as a gift. There are five or six Democrats who bolt the caucus nominee, i! he is the man. They will center on Gray, Holman or Bynum, and if they lose they have a scheme to work which will dumbfound the schemers who are using every nerve to elect McDonald." It was significant that F. J. S. Robinson, the Greenbacker, refused to go into the Democratic caucus last night He has announced his intention not to vote for McDonald under any circumstances. It is thought that the presence ot certain individuals In the interest of Bynum means the use of persuasive powers greater than argu

ment, appeal or reward of office. One gentleman is here who has figured in this styie of doing things, and is the most active of the McDonald leaders. The Republican Caucus Nominees. The Denison House lobby was crowded by the Republicans interested in the lively contest for the speakership. The result in caucus, presided over by General Grose, of Henry, with Edward Gough, of Warrick, as secretary, was soon known Warren Sayre, of Wabash, receiving for the speakership thirty-one votes to the nineteen for Wm. R. Gardiner, of Daviess. The clerkship candidacy was as soeedily settled by W. H. Smith, of Marion, eettlng forty-two votes tc ten for O. M. Wilson, of the same county. The candidates for assistant clerk furnished a more spirited contest in the vote on tho first ballot, which gave S. E. Carter, of Jackson, G; U. Z. Wiley, of Benton, 19; Frank Rawlea, of Allen, 23, with scattering, 4. On the second bah't Rawles was nominated by 32 vote j, to 21 for Wiley. Fot Door-ltecper, C C. Schneder. of Dubois and Captain Shumate, of Green, had the lead with nineteen and ten votes, respectively, the rest being divided between Yancey, of Hancock; Bedford, of Henry, and Finney, of Wayne, with fie for each, and others scattering. Schneder, on the second ballot, with thirty-six votes, which elected him, defeated Yancey, who gained four, with Shumate withdrawn, while Bedford had seven. The Republican Senators named Major Grubbe, of Morgan, for Secretary; Allen Dugold, of Allen, assistant-secretary, and Gen. George F. McGmnis, of this city, for Door-keeper. Both houses will meet this morning at 10 o'clock in the new State-house, the keys of which

will be given without any special formality to ine state juiorarian an nour earlier. The Democratic Senatorial Caucus. The Democratic senatorial caucus, after a twohours' session, last night, in the Grand Hotel, disappointed the supporters of a certain combination. Jason Brown was down for the Secretary's position, if his services were to be required in the reorganization of the Senate. Publicity to this scheme, however, impressed the guerillas with an idea to hedge somewhat on the original programme. It was represented that Wm. Moss, of Greene, had the inside favor, but late in the afternoon the ex pression pointed to Webster Dixon, of Bartholomew county, as the coming man in the character of an official protege of Brown. Dixon is originallv from Seymour, the residence of Mr. Brown. Besides, when he came in to interferfere with Moss's arraneoments, it was done under the tutelage of the guerillas. However, Moss counted on sixteen votes, which the result shows went to Dixon, while the fifteen assigned to him were cast for Mess. While the election was not actually Brown s, for all purposes of the conspirators Dixon will do as well. James Walsh, of Marion, was very certain of his success, but John D. Carter, of Orange, defeated him for Assistant Secretary by seventeen to thirteen, with one vote given by mistake to Frank Pritchett, of Vanderburar. The latter defeated Ed Wells, f Marion, for Door-keeper, by seventeen to fourteen. In the caucus of the Democratic Representa tives Charles L. Jewett, of Floyd, was named for Speaker; Richard Johnson, of Marion, for Clerk; Charles Crawley, of Clav, for assistant Clerk, and Colonel Shay, of Scott, for Door keeper. Consider It Beneath Their Notice. To a Journal reporter who interviewed them, yesterday afternoon, the judges of the Supreme Court were unanimous in saying that they intended to pay no attention whatever to the Sentinel's editorial, considering it beneath their notice. One of them said "that the editorial itself was sufficient evidence of the condition of the man who wrote it, and it would be below the dignity of the court to notice such a person." The editorial was severely condemned by the State officers and Democrats generally in unmeasured terms. The German Telegraph this morning will charge that the man who wrote the article wa3 drui&s&t the time. THE EECOUNT DELAYED. Court Is Unable to Get Into the Containing the Election Ballots. The Safe The lawyers were ready, as was Judge Howe, yesterday afternoon, to proceed with the re count of the votes cast for Irvin, Ayres, Wagner and Morrison in the quo warranto trial that is to settle the criminal judgeship and coronial con tests. Wm. W. Spencer, on behalf of Dr. Rooker, who sustains the defense to Dr. Wagner's information, and John B. Elam, of Judge Irvin's counsel, with the court bailiff, Charles Arndt, went to the United States clerk's office to get the first installment of ballots and papers.' Judge Wood had issued an order to let the ballots and election papers fequired to be so used, but the bags were in the United States clerk's safe. District Attorney Turpie had the key to the outer door thereto, which he at once placed at the disposal of the attorneys. The door thus opened, the solution of the combination lock escaped the memory of Deputy Clerfc Nichols, and Clerk Butler, who has the figures, is in Washington. After a long trial at the lock the job was given up. The waiting attorneys and judge at the court-hou3e became impatient, and it was not until 3 o'clock that word came that no progress in the trial could be made until the safe was opened. Mr. Butler was telegraphed to for the combination. With the aid of Charles Gorsuch, the safe expert, it is thought the safe door3 can be opened so that the count can be gin this mornine. The arrangement under which this is to be conducted provides for the introduction of evi dence tending to identify and show ballots actually cast and their condition when they were cast and counted. Evidence explaining any discrepancies between the ballots and any certificate belonging thereto, and testimony pertinent to any issues in the cause raised by the plead ings, will be received. The court is to make its judgment at the conclusion of the count on the results it and the evidence show. Upon this will rest the decision as to who was elected, but there is no waiver of rights as to appeal ou any exceptions that may be taken to evidence, rulings or conclusions of the Court. Dr. Rooker, in his answer, having alleged that the relator, Dr, Wagner, was not an elector at the time of the last election, that gentleman promptly produced nis citizens papers, wnicn were drawn up oy Judge Irvin, associated with him as a contestor. Special Soivlces by Bishop Knickerbocker. To-day being the feast of Epiphany, there will be divine service, holy communion and a ser mon by the Bishop at Grace Church, at 10:30 o'clock a. m. It is expected the Rev. G. E, Swan, the newly-appointed pastor of the church, will be present and take part in the services. Mr. Swan enters upon his duties next Sunday. He has been rector at Moorehead, Minn., for six years. A Boy Accidentally Shoots Himself. Last night Frederick Weber, the fifteen-year-old son of Henry Weber, deceased, living with his mother at No. 126 West Morris street, was loading a revolver preparatory to retiring, when the weapon was discharged. The bullet, a 22caliber, entered his abdomen, and inflicted a wound that it is feared will prove fatal. A physician was called, and probed for the ball without finding it , The Lincoln Republican CI rib. The Lincoln Republican Club met at Superior Court-room No. 3, last evening, and adopted a constitution and by-laws. Republicans desiring to become members before the next regular meeting, in February, cau do so by calling upon the secretary, Wm. II. Martz, over No. 1G North Pennsylvania street, and signing the constitution,

THE BOABD OF AGBICULTUBE

Business Relating to Farming and Fair Interests Transacted Yesterday. Interesting Addresses by Prof. D. S. Jordan and Mrs. L. G. Hnfford Three New Members of the Board Elected. The State Delegate Board of Agriculture yes terday morning began its second day's session. Several recommendations of the committee on fair grounds in regard to repairs were concurred in. Among . these was a recommendation that the main building be reroofed and the racecourse be fenced iu anew. The premium list was referred to the February meeting of the State board. A resolution in regard to the cattle plague was adopted. It demanded that the Representatives and Senators in Congress from Indiana give their support to the Miller bill, which provides adequate measures for completely eradicating the lung plague from this country. A resolution was also adopted, providing for a committee of three to meet with the Indiana General Assembly committees and urge upon the Assembly the passage of laws designed to prevent the spread of contagious diseases among live stock in Indiana. Messrs. Mitchell, Pruitt and Lockrrdge were chosen as this committee. The report of the committee on addresses was in effect that it was shown that everything possible had been done to reduce the debt and for ward the work in hand. The committee urged that the Legislature be petitioned to pay tho remainder of the bonded debt, $35,000. A chair of veterinary science at Purdue University and also one of entomology was fa vored; tae Hatch bill in Congress was favored, and also the appropriation, by the General Assembly, of a sum sufficient to enable the board to send out a competent person to work up an interest in farmers' institutes, concurred in. The report was Mr. Cumback offered a resolution referring to the State board the question of farmer's institutes, which was adopted. Mr. Mitchell moved that the Legislature be reauested to pass a law increasing the membership of the State Board of Agriculture. The motion was lost At the oDening of the afternoon session, President David S. Jordan, of the State University, gave an interesting talk on "The Food Fishes of Indiana." He had a basketful of pictorial specimens of more or less antiquity, with which he illustrated his remarks. There are 165 kinds of fishes known over Indiana, divided into twentysix families. . The following are the kinds: Lamprey, 2; paddlefish, 1: sturgeon, 2; gar, 3; bowfin, 1; eel, 1: catfish, 15; suckers, 23; carp and minnows, 38; gizzard shad, 1; herring, 1; mooneye, 2; salmon, 8; trout perch, 1; blind fish, 1; killifisb, 3; mud minnow, 1; pike, 3; silverside, 1; pirate perch, 1: sunfish, 13; bass, 2; perch, 80; drum, 1; sculpin, 6; cod, 1; stickleback, 2. Of these, sixty-five kinds may be called fit for food, the others being mostly too small or their flesh poor. Carp came originally from China. It is a vegetable-feeding fish, and will eat anything that a nog or cnicsen win. vvnen it is treated prop erly it is as good as black bass. It is the only fish that it will pay to cultivato in common ponds. White fish is the best fresh-water varie ty. The pike is the most destructive of all fishes. The black bass is one of the gamiest fish known, but unprofitable to raise for food, as they would probably cost a dollar a pound, whereas they sell m market at 10 cents a pound. lhe drum lien sometimes weighs as high as fifty pounds. It is sold from the Ohio river as the white perch, but when too large are too coarse to eat In Lake Michigan they are called bheeps heads, and are not considered at all good to eat The election of members of the State Board of Agriculture to fill vacancies occasioned by termB now expiring was then entered upon. The State is divided into sixteen agricultural dis tricts. Eight terms are now expiring, tho mem bers to which are elected for two years. Every one of these members was placed in nomination for another term. These were as follows: Fifth district, Will A. Greer; Sixth, Dick Jones; Seventh. E. H. Peed; Ninth, H. La Tourette; Tenth, Ja?per N. Davidson; Eleventh, John M. Graham; Twelfth, John M. Boggs; Thirteenth, John Ratliff. Of these Will A Greer and John M. Boggs were re-elected without onpofiition. Dick Jones's place was contested by B. B. Beeson, of Wayne county. Mr. Jones was re-elected, receiving 46 votes to 13 for Mr. Beeson. J. Ward Walker was the candidate against Hi. IL Peed. Mr. Peed was re-elected, receiving 40 votes to 21 for his opponent H. La Tourette was defeated for re-election, receiving 26 votes to 35 votes for R. C. McWilliams. of Rockville. Jasper N. Da vidson was re elected. He received 44 votes, his bnnonent, T. W. Robe, 18; 3 scatterin John M. Graham was also defeated, Robert Simouton, of Huntington, a new man. receiving 38 votes to Mr Graham's 24: 2 scattering. In the Thirteenth agricultural district it required two Ballots to effect a choice. The first vote stood: John Ratliff, 5; Willis Blanche, 27: I. B. McDonald, 23; W. A. Maze, o; necessary to a cnoice, Ui. The . ii . . t a,; !r XT . i . second oauoc siooa: uoun ivaunr, o; tvuns Blanche, 36; I. B. McDonald, 23; W. A. Maze, L Col. Willis Blanche, of Kokomo, having received a maiority of all the votes cast, was de clared elected. The delegates from the various agricultural societies felt greatly elated at having succeeded in electing three new men Messrs. McWilliams, Blanche and Simonton. Mrs. Lois G. Hufford read a paper on "The Place of Woman Among theWorld's Workers." In concluding her paper, which was very interesting, she said: "The executive ability of woman is now coming to be recognized, and one of the most significant signs of the times is that she is no longer reproached with going out of her sphere when she executes these public trusts. Even in religions bodies, the stronghold of conservative prejudice against admitting women to places of influence and authority, the barriers have been broken down, and now in all the prominent sects of protestantism women are organized for missionary wortc and are allowed a voice in church management In this larger work for the diffusion of intelligence and good morals in society women of all social grades are engaged. The women of wealth and leisure find here an abundance of opportunity for the exercise of their latent abilities for organization and labor, so that in one field or another all classes of women are engaged, save only those butterflies of fashion who have no thought for anything but their pleasures. Never before was mother life so tender and at the same time so wisely thoughtful; never were homes made eo bright and attractive for son, and daughter, and husband. Even in this age of divorces I dare assert my belief that happy marriages are on the increase. Hence woman going outside of home for business and for work among the poor and the friendless has not led to the neglect of her own home duties. The Mrs. Jellabys, who, while devoted to the cause of missions in Borrioboolagha, leave their own children to grow up in an untidy home, untaughv. and uncultivated, passiug by the 'Poor Joes' of their neighborhood with not so much as a glance of sympa thy, are few indeed." A vote of thanks was tendered to President D. S. Jordan and to Mrs. Hufford for their addresses. The board then adjourned to meet this morning at 9 o'clock. Installation of Lodge Officers. Center Lodge, No. 9!), U. O. of H., installed the following officers last night: P. P., Mary A. Stemmer; P., Carrie Winter; V. P., A. B. Chapman; secretary, berry Self; treasurer, Cbas. R.

Henry J. Hotchkiss, the inventor from the Gre'fen mountains, who has been here on a protracted epree, was brought into the stationhouse, early yesterday morning, for the third time. When he began "to paint the wild West red," as he expressed it, two weeks ago, he had $1,300. Last night he didn't have a cent He was before Mayor Denny yesterday, who had fined him twice before, and as he was bordering on delirium tremens, the Mayor allowed him to go. He has been refused lodging at all the hotels, and what will become of him now is a ques tion. rrocured Her Daughter's Arrest. A year ago, Laura Van Etta, the fourteen-year-old daughter of Mrs. Zanker, left her home, and took up her residence in the family of Mrs. Faucett, in the Moore Block, on Massachusetts avenue. All efforts of her mother to induce her to return home were futile, as was an effort to have her sent to the Reformatory for incorrigibility. Last Evening, Mrs. Zanker swore out a warrant, and had the girl and Mrs. Faucett's eighteen-year-old son, Charles, arrested, under the ill-fame law. She wants her girl sent to the Reformatory, and young Faucett to the Reform School. Ice Tools. We have a good assortment of Wood's celebrated ice tools in Btock at manufacturers' prices.
