belonged to the Deraocratio party. To those "white pcoole the colored people looked for edvlce and counsel and support in all matters excepting those relating to politics. It wa natural that the -white people should lead ' in all affairs becauso of their superior advantages and of the relations which had heretofore existed between the races. But vben the rights of any citizens were encroached upon there was a tendency to overthrow the government by the consent of the governors. The peopie wanted a bill that would be enforced

der that the declared result of any election ehould be the voice of tho Nation. Mr. Reagan argued that the- bill was a Tiolation of tho Constitution, which gave to the States the right and duty to fix the time, place and manner of holding elections, lie concluded by declaring, with a show of strong feeling, that dear as his life was to him. he would as Godwashisjudge ; if he could save the American people from the pending measure by giving up bis life, surrender it as freely, aa he had ever performed any act in his life. Applause in the galleries, which the Vice-president reproved, threatening to have the galleries cleared if the ofiense was repeated.! At the close of Mr. Keagan'e speech, at 10:13, a motion was made by Mr. Hoar to lay on the table Mr. Butler's amendment that all election officers shall be regarded as ministerial and not judicial officers. The Senate got into a parliamentary enarl over a point made by 'Mr. Gorman that an amendment made to Mr. Butler's amendment should first be disposed of. This point was overruled by the Vice- ; president, and Mr. Gorman appealed from i the decision of the Chair and attempted to etate his position, to which Mr. Edmunds 'objected, as the appeal was not debatable. Mr. Morgan asked the Vice-president to "fetate for his information (as he had been out of the chamber) what the question was, and as the Vice-president got rather contused in mating the statement (owing to the number of questions from all sides and the noia in the chamber) Mr. Morgan raised a laugh in the galleries by the remark that as the Chair did not know it be was sure that be Mr. Morgan did not. APPEAL LAID ON THE TABLE. After much confusion the vote was taken and the appeal was laid on tho table yeas, 81; cays, 15. ' The question was then taken on Mr. Hoar's motion to lay the Butler amendment on the table, and it was agreed to yeas, CO, nays, 20. Mr. Teller said that as be was paired, he bad not voted on the last motion, but be was cot in favor of giving judicial power to those officials. He understood that such an idea was disclaimed by the friends of the measure; but if tho matter is not clear in the bill it should be made so. Mr. Edmunds said that be bad Toted to lay the amendment on the table, becauso be regarded it as an ingenious superlluity. . The amendment offered by Mr. Faulkner on the 17th of December was stated by the Vice-president to be the next question in order. It proposes a substitute for Section 14, and to provide for the appointment by the court of a board of three persons in a congressional district to be known as the United States board of canvassers. Mr. Faulkner advocated his amendment, and condemned the action of Republican benators in stiffing discussion by moving to lay amendments on the table. S In the course of a colloquy between Mr. ' Faulkner, Mr. Gray and Mr. .Spooner, the latter stated, as an illustration of what the bill meant, that if be bad a boil on the back of bis neck he would not think it necessary to place a poultice ovq bis whole back. The illustration was taken advantage of by Mr. Faulkner, who saw in it n discarding of the mak and an admission that the bill was a partisan and a sectional measure, to be put in force only in one part of the country. Mr. Faulkner is still addressing the Senate on his amendment, at I a. m., and has now been speaking about an hour. He semis good for several hours, and it is rretty evident that the object is to occupy time. There are not more than a dozen Senators on each side of the chamber, but there are large reserves in the cloak-room and committee-rooms ready to meet any phase of the question that may present itself. FAULKNER TRIES TO GOAD SrOONER. Various efforts have been made by Mr. Faulkner, but without success, to goad Mr. Spooner. whom he said Mr. Hoar bad left in his place, while be himself retired for refreshment, to take part in the discussion! Mr. Spooner disclaimed having been left by Mr. Hoar, and declared that he was present "on his own book." but he declined to walk into the trap which Mr. Faulkner bad prepared for him. . The galleries, which earlier in tho night were overcrowded, are now nearly empty; there is a general air of weariness about them all who are present, but tho prospect at this moment is that the session will continue through the watches of the night, and perhaps all day to-morrow. Mr. Pasco, a short time ngo directed the attention of the chair to tho absence of a quorum, and as the call in being made Senators drop into the chamber and prove that there are few more present than are needed to constitute b quorum. ' Mr. Fanik:.jr continued speaking till 1:20, when the absence of a.quorum was again brought to the a'ttention of the chaii by Mr. Sanderson. The call of the roll showed that there were only thirty-six Senators present, only live of that number being Democrats. A motion was made by Mr. Hoar to compel the attendance or absentees, but Mr. Harris made the point of order that the first motion under the rules was to direct the sergeant-at-r.rms to request the attendance of absent Senators. The presiding officer Mr. Washburn sustained the point of order, and Mr. Hoar changed his motion accordingly. Tho motion was agreed io and a list of the absentees was furnished to the Sergeant-at-arms who dispatched messengers to carry out the order of the Senate. The Democrats present were Messrs, Cockrell, Faulkner, 3orman. Harris and Pasco. Before the iist bad been banded to the Sergeant-it-arms five more Senators. all republicans bad answered, making ho whole number present ; forty-one, or four less than a quorum. Up to 2 o'clock qo Senator had presented himself in complince with the request, and it looked as if a quorum might not be secured. - During ihe timo that the messengers of the Sergeant-at-arms were calling at the hotels snd residences of the absentees all business vas suspended. , At 2:15 Mr. Hoar asked the Chair whether my repoxt bad been made by tho Sergeant-it-arms, and was informed that one Senator ad been seen, and bad said that be was too ill to be present, and another who bad said that he was too fatigued. A motion was then made by Mr. Edmunds and was agreed to, directing the Serjeant-at-arms to use all necessary means to compell the attendance of all absent Senators, except those who are ilL At 2:10 Iho Senate still lacked one of a quorum. OBJECT OF NIGHT SESSION". Effort to Win Dissenting Republicans to See the Necessity of a Closure Rule. Washington, Jan. BV It was the underitanding on the Republican side of the Senate, to-night when the motion made by Mr. Wolcott to adjourn was defeated tbat tbe extension of the session would not result in toy measurable advancement of tho elections bilL The real purpose was to convin?e the few Republican Senators who iro of conservative opinions tbat tbe old method of passing a measure obnoxious to tha minority by excess of sheer physical ndurance is no longer effective. The majority feel that, after a short practice in tbe tactics tried to-day the few Senators who have retained their belief in the old methods will consent to support the proposed closure rule. This measure is now on the calender, aud it can be taken up at a moment's notice by an affirmative vote, and it is rumored tbat the effort may be made tomorrow. But there are several obstacles to the enactment of the rule. In the first place, some way must be found to limit the debate UDOtj it. Otherwise that debate ni.iy be as absorbent of the time as the de bate on the elections bin, which it is msinlv intended to cut short. In the second place, there ariies the question of the ability . of the Republicans, supposing they can maintain their majority .to secure a quorum, for they fear tbat the Democrats, as a last resort, may refuse to vote in the attempt to break a quorum, mere are six iiepublican enliters absent from the city, all involved in matters relative to their own or their col-il--uii"s re-election, and so circumstanced

that it is improbable they could return before the middle of next week, at least, tbe time for tbe legislative senatorial elections, although it is possible that Senators Chandler and Rlair could be induced to return in shorter time. The Republicans were enconrsged tonight by the action of Senator Washburn in voting with them against adjournment, and theyf feel that although he may vote against the bill, be will still vote and thus r.elp to make up the quorum. Senator Ingalls' position is the subject of much speculation among them. He refrained from voting Weduesday niaht to take up the elections bill, and to-night be was not present when the first motion to adjourn "was defeated. One Republican Senator says he is in sympathy with the objects of the bill, as, indeed, seemed apparent from the opening sentences of bis speech last Wednesday, but just iow he will vote on the measure or its supporting propositions is a matter of speculation. SIMILAR CASK RECALLED.

How democratic Senator Were Ileaten Daring Lincoln Administration. Special to the Indianapolis J onraaL Washington, Jan. lfi Active preparations were in progress in tbe Senate all day "for an all-night session, as Mr. Hoar bad determined to force the elections bill to a vote by sitting it out. It recalled the days during the war when the Republican Senators forced to a vote the bill indemnifying President Lincoln for possible losses by bis suspension of the writ of habeas corpus. At that timo the elder Bayard led the Democratic handful which opposed the bill. It was arranged that there should be relays of Democratic speakers, one holding the floor while others slept in the coat-room. At 4 o'clock in the morning Senator Pomeroy. who was in the chair, adopted a course vhich, it is thought, will be followed in the present case. The presiding officer suddenly recognized a Republican Senator, who moved tbat debate close and a vote ,be taken. Bayard clearly bad the floor, but Pomeroy was deaf and blind to him. All he saw was the Republican Senator who made tbe motion for an immediate vote. The motion was put. and of course carried. The vote was taken and the bill passed, and an adjournment followed at once. Of course Bayard protested againt being "thus outrageously swept from the floor," but protests i were of no avail, for the bill had passed as was desired, though it required a severe stretch of senatorial conscience to bring it about. Bayard resigned from the Senate for this affront, and was succeeded by his son, who became Cleveland's Secretary of State. This incident is much in line with the programme which has been mapped out for Vice-president Morton to execute, and it is said that be has finally consented to make tbe move. INDIANS HOLD A BIG P0W-W0W. Concluded from First Page.l tbat General Miles has pursued in oorraJing the Indians at I'lne Ridge agency. When General Miles was In Washington, before goine to the scene of difficulty, he went to the Capitol for the purpose of conlerring with the President and Secretary Proctor, and it was during these conferences that the President. I am told, said to him la substance: "Whenever we have had Indian outbreaks heretofore tbe Indians have started across the county, murdering settlers, burning their cabins and out-house, driving off their stock and committing horrible barbarities, the array policy being to pnt a small force of cavalry on their trail and follow them. Now, I want this campaign to be a lesson to the Indians that the United States Is strong enough to surround them all. force them Into absolute submission or kill them all. anl 1 want to do it without blood shed. If possible. If it takes the entire army of A toe United btates to surround them, you snail have it for that purpose. I do not want haste used so much as I want no mistake made in the final result." It is only fair to General Miles to say that his views coincided with the Instructions of the President and that he received them with much satisfaction. Mysterious Signals. Ciietexne, Wyo., Jan. 16. Mysterious signals flash every night from the peaks of Big Horn range within thirty miles of Buffalo. The intelligence desired to be expressed is conveyed in one to three bright columns that are seen but an instant. Tho work Is not understood by even the oldest frontiersman. A telegram from Buffalo ays the people are greatly alarmed. That town la on au Indian trail and in a valley once called a lucky battle-tteld by the savages. Though J50 miles inland, Buffalo Is a city of nearly four thousand, with electric lights and water-works. Ranchmen have flocked to the place. They have an euulppcd militia company and one hundred i tan da of arms for the use of citizen. There Is a company of Infantry at Fort McKlnney, three miles away. "Why the Indians Surrendered. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington. Jan. 16. There is a great deal of amusement in the War Department over a telegram from London saying that a number of British dukes were about to sail for the United States In order to assist Buffalo Bill in putting down the Indian?, and the Pecretary of War is of the opinion that the knowledge of their Intentions must have been the cause of the Indian surrender. ' m m m FATAL RAILWAY COLLISION. . Nine Persons Killed and Three Fatally Injured on the St. Paul Road. Giraiid, la., Jan. 17. A west-bound passenger train on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Faul railroad collided with an eastbound freight, three miles west of Girard, this evening. Nine persons were killed and three fatally injured. The accident was caused by an operator failing to deliver a train order. Chicago. Jan. 172 a. m. At the Milwaukee & St. Paul train-dispatcher's office, in this city, nothing has been heard of the alleged wreck on tbe road in Iowa. Tbe official on duty expressed tbe opinion that if a wreck bad occurred information would bave reached him, though such was not necessarily tbe case. Ten Persons Injured. Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 16. News has Just been received from Madison of a wreck on the Covington & Macon road, in which the Athens passenger train was thrown down a sixty-foot embankment. About ten persons were Injured, but none fatally. OYER HALF A MILLION LOSS. Midnight names Destroy a Dig Philadelphia Carpet-Mill. Philadelphia, Jan. 17. Fire broke out at 10:00 last night in the carpet-mill of John & James Dobsou. at Falls of Schuylkill, a suburb of this city. The carpetmill is located right in the center of a group of six mill buildings, each from five to seven stories high and comprising one of the largest establishments of its kind in the United States. At 1 a. m. reports by telepbone said tbe large mill bad burned to the ground and tbat two other mills were on fire. People living near the eccue wero moving their furniture and Dobsnn's employes werecarryinK goods from, their other mills. At 10 a. M. the six-story carpet and plush mill was destroyed, as was also the wool-storKge warehouse and Drunsels carpet mill. The tire was still burning fiercely, but was thought to be under control. At an early hour this morning the fire was still raging, but was contined to the carpet-mill. The loss will probably be $ujo,ouo to sTOO.Ooa The buildings destroyed were those known as the Main building, a six-story structure of ston6, containing the satin, spinning, combing, ingrain and printing departments, and a secondary building, four stories high, containing the motive machinery for the mills, the burling and weaving departments, the oflices ot the firm and several outlying small buildings. 1 Other Losses by Fire. FT. Paul, Minn., Jan. 16. Shortly before midnight to-night fire broke out in the St. Paul Boot Factory, and the whole building will probably prove a total Ions. The loss will probably reach f 50,000. It Is supposed that the tire originated in the engine-room. CHK8TF.R, IlL, Jan. 10. T re store and residence of K. M. Hchemmer, the Htore and conteuta of Harris & ghugenuau aud the restaurant of Will Pierce were burned yesterday. Loss, $15,000; insurance, $7,000.

PAYING DOUBLE INTEREST

Irregularity in South Dakota in the Sale of $300,000 Worth of Bonds. Singular Transaction tbat lias Become the Subject of Legislative Inquiry Senator IngalhVs Chances Brightening. Pierre, S. D., Jan. 16. A resolution was introduced in the House this afternoon inquiring into the rumors of irregularity in the sale and disposition of three hundred thousand dollars' worth of funding warrants and bonds. It refers to the alleged irregularity in the sale of $300,000 worth of bonds, by which the State sustained great loss, and asks for a committee to investigate. The resolution was adopted. Governor Mellette expresses regret tbat the matter has bee c me public as it will be satisfactorily adjusted. The warrants are territorial warrants. In the settlement between 'the States South Dakota assumed $125,000 of these. Coupon bonds were ibsued to take np these warrants, whicbihad been placed by the territorial Treasurer, Bailey, to his personal credit in a Chicago bank. Bailey was to take up the warrants, but be reported tbe holders would not surrender them, and that be could not sell three-and-a-half per cent, bonds at par. He asked for a new set of , four per cent. registered bonds to replace them, but was refused. Finally Governor Mellette decided to issue registered three-and-a-half-per-cent. bonds, dated back to July, to take the place of the coupon bonds and others. These were turned over to Bailey. State Treasurer Taylor has received tho first issue of bonds canceled, but the State has nothing to show for the funding warrants or refunding bonds save Bailey's receipt. The point for investigation is why the State should be paying double interest at the rate of $000 a month, and why it should be placed in jeopardy of paying the principal of two sets of obligations. In galls lias One Chance of Success. Topeka, Kan., Jan. 16. The adoption of the new caucus rule by the Alliance members of the Legislature, whereby no senatorial candidate will be considered tho caucus nominee until eighty-three legislators,or a Joint-ballot majority, unite on him, has, in a measure, restored the confidence of the Republican leaders and greatly Improves Senator Ingalls's chances for a re-election. It is now believed that the jealousies existing among the senatorial aspirants before the People's party will prevent any one of them from securing the requisite Joint-ballot majority, and that a dead-lock will ensue, which will probably result In the election of a Republican, unless the caucus rule be broken. The various Alliance candidates have evidently formed a combine against Judge W. A. Fetter, editor of the Kansas Farmer, and the defeat of the agreement to have a majority rule was for the purpose of shelving him. Petfernad fifty votes pledged to him on the first ballot, and would have been an easy winner if the politicians in the party had not conspired to defeat him. Later. Sensational developments In the senatorial fight may be expected soon. The Farmers' Alliance, in caucus, last night, decided to unseat seven Republican members of the lower house and seat the seven contesting Farmers' Alliance candidates. When this fact became known to-day the Republicans of the Senate met and, it is said, decided to adjourn the Senate on the very day ths Republican members of the lower house are unseated. The adjournment will be sine die, and will prevent the holding of a Joint session for the purpose of electing a Senator. The choice of a Senator to succeed Mr. Ingalls will then devolve upon Governor Humphreys, who, it is said, will name Mr. Ingalls to succeed himself. The adjournment of the Senate would also prevent the making of any appropriations to pay the expenses of the State government for two years, but this will not stand In the way of carrying o ut the plan decided upon. Ex-Governor Oglesby Will Accept. Bprisgfield, 111., Jan. 16. There was considerable speculation tp-day as to wheth yr ex-Governor Oglesby would accept tho nomi jation for Senator. To-night Representative Bryan, after a conference with the ex-Governor at the latter's farm, said: "While I am not authorized to say anything for ex-Governor Oglesby officially as to his plans, I will state that from all he has said to me he will accept the nomination of the Republican members and push the fight for the senatorship." The ex-Governor has wired that he will b at the capital Monday or Tuesday for consultation with Chairman Jones, of the Republican State committee. Nice Scheme of Montana Democrats. n elexa, Mont, Jan. 16. The Democrats have evolved a plan to settle the legislative muddle. Charles Duer has arrived fro.n Choteau , county to begin the contest for the seat of John Power, wno was ueciareu elected Dy a small majority, on the ground that voters at Fort Benton were intimidated. This, if successful, will give the Democrats a two-tnlrds vote in the Senate, and give them a chance to Impeach their presiding otticer, Lieutenant-governor Riokarts, or the Supreme Court, In case the latter undertakes to Interfere with the asserted intention of the Legislature to manage its own affairs. Colorado's Quarreling Factions. Denver, CoL, Jan. 16. The two warring factions of the Douse of Representatives have failed to yet reach an amicable settlement of heir differences. This morning the "combine-' met In the Legislative hall at 9 o'clock, and without transacting any business adjourned until tomorrow, the llanna crowd meeting In the same hall half an hour later and adjourned until 3 o'clock this afternoon. The voting strength of the factions still remains: Combine, 2d; llanna men, 21. x Scheme to Count Oat Boyd. Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 16. Petitions are being circuited over the State asking the Legislature for a recount of the ballots of the November election. This Is supposed to be a scheme of the ludenendents to get iossession of the ballots of Douglas county, in which Omaha is situated, for the purpose of counting out Boyd and seating Powers as Governor. Resolution of Thanks to the President. Springfield, IlL, Jan. 16. In the House, today, a resolution was introduced complimenting President Harrison for his promptness In Issuing the world's fair proclamation and Indorsing the Chicago management of the exposition. A motion that It go to the committee on federal relations was adopted 70 to 66. PENSIONS FOR VETERANS. Residents of Indiana and Illinois Whose Claims Have Been Allowed.

The Adventuress Creating Much Interest at Terre Haute Technicalities. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Terre Haute, Ind., Jan. 16. The court room was crowded this morning when tes timony began in the case of Ethel Towne, the young Chicago adventuress, charged witn uttering a $300 forged check signed in the name of James IL Walker & Co., Chicago. There were a number of. ladies present, and Miss Phccbe Ellis, the local tem perance lecturess, was again at Ethel's side. Charles lianer, proprietor of the Terre Haute House, was the first witness called by the State. He saw the defendant, for the first time, on the morning of Nov. 14 last, at breakfast at his hotel. He detailed the circumstances of the girl passing the check for $300 signed J. II. Walker on Reuben Batz, one of the clerks, and of Mr. liutz turning it over to him. He sent two telegrams to Chicago to Mr. Walker, asking him if the check was genuine and received two replies from him stating that the check was a forgery. He went np to the defendant's room in the hotel with the check and passing it to her asked her if her name was Ethel Towne. She said it was and handed it back to him. lie asked her if James H. Walker was the dry goods Walker, of Chicago, and she said he was. The defense objected to Mr. Baur's evi dence on the subject of the check, for the reason of an alleged fatal variance in the indictment. The indictment charged Ethel Towne with uttering and publishing a forged check on Mr. Chr.rles Baur, when, as a matter of fact, the check was passed on Reuben tfutz, and Mr. Haur got possession of the check through him. In other words. h.thel lowne uttered it to Mr. liutz and Mr. Butz uttered it to Mr. Baur. There was a lengthy discussion by counsel on this subject. Judgo Taylor, however, ruled to admit tho evidence. Mr. Baur tea titied that Miss Towne told him Mr. Walker was her guardian, and that she was on her way to school at St. Mary's; that she would take part of the money (Mr. Baur thought about $200) and would leave the rest to bo sent for by her as she needed it.; It was argued hy the defense that, Aflr. Baur knew at the tima the check wfs presented to him it was a forgery, therefore there could be no fraud, and tbe essential element of a forgery was lacking. The court, however, allowed Mr. Baur's testimony to go to the jury. Mr. Baur was asked to identify the telegram which Miss Towne sent to Harry D. Koberta. care Chicago Daily News, Chicago, asking that Mr. Baur be telegraphed that the Walker check was all right. There was a vigorous objection to this as opening the way to any confession the prisoner may have made, for these reasons: That Miss Towne went to the telegraph office herself, in company with Superintendent Davis and Mr. Baur, and called for a copy of this telegram of hers to Roberts; that this happened after Mr. Baur, at the hotel, had told her that Mr. Walker had telegraphed to him that if she told who her accomplice was she would be let go and given $50; that she was at this time under arrest; that there was promise of immunity and escape; that it was not a voluntary admission, and that for that reason it was incompetent and could not be used. The court allowed the telegram to go in as evidence. W. F. Hoadley, of Chicago, who is connected with the dry-goods firm of J. H. Walker & Co., was introduced by the State to prove that the signature to the $300 cheek was not Mr. Walker's. Mr. iloadley testified that he had been with J. H. Walker & Co. for eight years, ever since the firm was organized; that in his opinion it was not Sir. Walker's signature. He had a reason in thinking so, and it was because he had never ftaown Mr. Walker to sign his name "James-1 H. Walker. He always abreviated it to "Jas." Mr. Butz testified that he suspected the check was a forgery when she handed it to him. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES.

The Herald of yesterday states that Judge Gresham is a citizen of Indiana, giving that as the reason he could not be United States Senator from Illinois.

Judge Gresham has had his legal residence in Chicago ever since his appointment to the United States. circuit judgeship, which he now holds, which was in l&U.

BEFUSED TO GO OK STBIKE

Only a Few Telegraphers and Station Agents on the St. Paul Road Quit Wcrk. Chief Thurston's Orders Obeyed by SeventyTwo Hen, Instead of 500 as Expected No In terrnption to the Banning of Trains. Milwaukee, Jan. 1& Just seventy-two operators and station masters employed on the line of the Chicago, Milwaukee &. St. Paul stopped work to-day, and the strike which Chief Thurston, of the Order of Railway Telegraphers, has heralded in so many bulletins, was very much of a fizzle. General Manager Karling came up from Chicago and spent the day at General Superintendent Collins's office. The officials of the road were prepared for any emergency and at every station where an operator quit work, another man was wait ing to take his place, so that the telegraphio business of the road suffered no delay of consequence, it was not a strike at all, in the usual sense of the word. The men ten dered their resignations, on Wednesday, to take effect at 7 o'clock this morning. Ail of those who resigned did not go out, for some of them repented, and wired to headquarters rescinding their resignations. In Wisconsin not a single man stopped work, and more than half of those who did so were employed on divisions in the State of Iowa. This is partly due to the personal influence of Thurston, whose home is at Vinton, la. On the Sioux City and Dakota division one man gave np his Eosition, and as tho division is a long one, e must have felt a little lonely. 1 he following othcial statement was made to-day on behalf of the company: 'The men involved in this affair really had no gnevance.and were deceived by the misrep resentations of the Order of Railway Telegraphers. There has been no general reduction of salaries, but simply an equalization because operators and station meu at certain points were - being paid more. in proportion to the amount of work required of them, than at others. The officers of tbe company knew of no dissatisfaction among the men until they learned that the officers of the Urder of Railway Telegraphers were securing the signatures of operators and station men to a remonstrance. The offi cers of the order misrepresented the situation, and concealed from the men that clause in the remonstrance stating that their resignations would be tendered unless their demands were complied with. Seventy-two men quit work, including those discharged for making trouble.' Of these, nine were employed on divisions in Illinois, sixteen in Minnesota, one in Dakota and forty-five in Iowa. Of tbe forty-fare Iowa men who went out, thirty-four were employed on the Council Bluffs division. At some of the Iowa stations tho wires were tampered with by making ground connections, leaving switches open and otherwise, but no serious delay resulted from tb's." Superintendent Underwood, of the River division, said only four of the employes of his division quit work to-day. A number of operators were here to-day who claimed they had been called in from the La Crosse division of the road. They were asked if they would take positions in Iowa. To this they answered by drawing back their coats and displayed a ribbon with the words "We are not scabs" printed thereon. They say out of fifteen men asked to work all posi tively refused but two, who agreed to do so. Chief Thurston's Claims. Chicago, Jan. 16. Grand Chief Thurston, of the Order of Railway Telegraphers, and tho grievance committee of the station agents and telegraphers on the lines of the Chicago, Milwaukee & fit Paul road, are in conference in this city. According to their statement the road is seriously crippled bv the strike. Thev claim to have1 adrices that about 400 of the 450 men on the line are out, and that additional resignation are constantly being received by telegraph and mail, making the knock-off practically unanimous. Following is the list furnished by Chief Thurston of men going out, by divisions: Prairie du Chien, twenty; Dubuque, thirty; Milwaukee Krortuern, sixteen; ureen Hay. thirty; council Jtluffs, lifty; Illinois & Minnesota, twenty-rive; Hastings & Dakota, thirty; Kansas City, five; C. & C. B., Iowa, 125; miscellaneous, 115. Tne railroad onlclals claim tbat only a few men bave gone out, and tbat their places have been promptly filled, but it is said by the representatives ot the strikers that one of tbe officials' clerks, siding with the strikers, secretly carried a telegram to the strikers' headquarters this morning which announced tbat larjre numbers were quitting, and aslSng for instructions how to run trams. The press committee at the strikers headouarters admitted this afterdoon that so far the strike has tailed to tie up the business of the road and tnat it can continue to run Its trains on schedule time. The committee, however, exfresses a belief that more men will resign. The atest estimates are that tbe total resignations number less than seventy-five. Pennsylvania Employes. f PrrTsncno, Jan. 1C The members of the grievance committee of the Pennsylvania Company's employes are holding another meeting here. The committee numbers about eighty nu itbers, with representatives from the en gineers, firemen, conductors and brakemen. A conference was held to-day with the officials, but It is understood no conclusion was arrived at. The men will remain hero several days, or until some terms are mutually agreed upon. The members were not inclined to talk this morning in regard to what answer they received, but said when the proper time came the information would be given out; Wages of Wabash Employes Equalized. St. Locis, Jan. 16. The committee of Wabash employes and the offlcla's of that road had another conference to-day, and a satisfactory settlement of the matters under consideration was reached. The new schedule prepared by the committee was submitted to General Manager Haves. It provides for an equalization of waxes and hours of labor over all the Wabash system. On some of the divisions the men were receiving higher wages and their hours were fewer than on other divisions, and it was to equalize these that the conference was held. Mluers Strike Sanctioned. Pittsburg, Pa., Jan. 16. The river coal' operators and Messrs. Rea and McBride, representing the seven thousand striking miners. held a conference here this afternoon. The entire ground was gone over, but the operators absolutely refused to pay the one-half-cent advance. Mr. McBride, for the United Mine-workers, then sanotioned the strike, and said furthermore that the scale to be insisted on next year in both river and railroad mines will be 90 cents per ton. Senator Harwell's Retirement. Chicago Inter Ocean. The result of the Republican caucus last night will doubtless be a surprise to some Republicans, but it will hardly astonish those who have closely observed the situation in the State during the last twelve months. Mr. Farwell went to ttpringtield saying that while he would like the nomination he was ready to give way to any one preferred by the Republicans of the Legislature. They have taken him at his word, and neither he nor his friends can complain. The Republican members of the Legislature preferred Governor Oglesby, and by a handsome majority the caucus have placed him in nomination. His nomination is only an expression of the feeling that has prevailed in the Senate for a long time. That interview with Mr. Farwell, in which he talked sounseemingly of the President, may have aided in bringing this about, but it is not at all certain that the result would not have been the eatne if that interview had never been published. Th Ttecent Panic and Silrer. Chicago Fost (Dem.) It must be admitted that in the cradnal increase in silver coinage, at great and growing cost to the Nation, various calami ties predicted have tailed to come to naaa. Turning back to the solvent conditions of midsummer one niieht concede that with our tiscal policy we had for years tlown in the face of financial history. Dut it is now well known tnat the panlo with which the winter was ushered in was more largely the result of gold hoarding, sales of American securities bv doubting foreigners, and dis trust kept fresh by silver schemes, than any overtrading or lack of currency with which to transact the vast business of the country. m m A Real Mean Remark.

GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Another Revolutionary Outbreak in the Argentine Republic Radical Legislation. Buenos Aykes, Jan. 16. A large rebel force is said to be assembledin the province of Entre Kios. The citizens of that province are in a state of considerable alarm. The telegraph lines have been cut. and the na tional troops in strong force have been sent to suppress the revolutionary outbreak.

An atticle beaded "Is Comfort to be Found in America!'' appeared in last Sunday's Tribune. The writer seems to have forgotten his original intention, or to mistake luxnry for comfort, for he losses sight of the question in hand and merely discusses the luxnry of foreign lands. Comfort does not consist in Koman baths or Turkish divans, but is made up by s thousand and one small things. I have traveled nil over America for more than six years and can truly say that comfort is not to be found in tbe United States. The method of living is opposed to the sligbest approach to comfort. Who ever beard of a comfortable board-ing-honse or hotelt Even Americans revile the boarding-house. Your comio journals constantly ridicule tbem. There are thousands of people in this country earning fair salaries who do not know what it is to eat a well cooked and nicely served dinner. Charles Dickens's description of a New York boarding-house almost holds good to-day. What sort of life does the young man lead who is compelled to occupy a hall bedroom, eat at stated hours, and who, should he fall ill, is at the tender mercy of some overworked servant. Did one ever hear of comfort in yourbuge hotels? Electric lightsand bells yes; but solid comfort, never. There is not in the whole of the United States such a thing as a moderate-priced and good hotel The cheap hotels are without exception vile. Quiet, too, is an essential to comfort. Is it possible to tind quiet in an American city with the clangingof the car bells, the badly paved streets, which cause one uninterrupted din from morn till nightT I have searched New York for a quiet street. 1 find it does not exist. If one avoids tbe elevated trains, there is the trouble of the surface car bells. In other cities the case is worse: in Chicago, for example, life is unbearable within sound of the cable route. In a great many of your cities the railway tracks running right through the center of the town render it impossible to live in comforL The shriek of the whistle and the claDf-of the bell arr maddening. In England ; I have lived near a railway, but the rush of the trafn was the only sound that disturbed one's nerves. Cleanlinessis 'next to godliness, it is said. Certainly it is essential to comfort. Now, it is notorious that American cities are badly governed and that the street-cleaning department in almost neglected. I was in one city where I was informed that they hardly ever cleaned the streets. The tilth went through various stages in tbe winter, until the summer came, then turning into dust, it was blown down the throats and into the eyes of the long sulk-ring inhabitants. Now. sir. I have hastily glanced over the subject, but I think I have written enough to prove that comfort will never bo found here until a radical change is made in the mode of living in this country. Everyone who has traveled or resided in England knows how we live there and though we may be behindhand in mechanical inven tions, it Is the land of comfort and peace. I would sav. in conclusion, to our American cousins that 1 am not linding fault, bat

Chicago Times. Court Councilor Meynert, professor of medicine at the university in Vienna, was Erevented recently from delivering one of is regnlar aftfcrtioon lectures, and, as the students were already assembled, his assistaut,.Dr. Anton, undertook to hypnotize a young woman for the instruction of the disappointed audience. The young woman was tall, slender, light-haired, and somewhat over twenty years of age. Dr. Anton let his hand glide over her forehead, smoothed her eyelids with his fingers, touched her cheeks with soft downward strokes, and then commanded, loudly: "Now sleep." She slept. 'Yonr arms are completely, crippled." hs said, and both arms sank limp by her sides, What will you now do, poor creature, without any arms?" be asked. The girl riased her bowed bead and began to weep and wail so piteously that the stndents ios in their places and shouted that 6ho must be restored at once to consciousness. Dr. Anton seized the y oun g woman's right arm. rubbed it smartly, and suggested: "Yon are all right now. Your arm h well n gain." In the same instant the girj raised ber arm, with a triumphant expression of face. Dr. Anton then aroused her. To bis and his auditors' astonishment, however, the girl's left arm still bung limp and r apparently nerveless at her side, lie bad forgotten, in speaking colloquially, to tell her that her left arm, too, hart recovered its strength, lie touched the helpless arm and exhorted tbe young woman to raise it, bnt in vain. She couldn't stir it an inch.. Dr. Anton then explained that the stndents had before them a case "post-hypnotic crippling," which could ie removed only after the girl had been again hypnotized. He was unwilling to exhaust tbe girl by bringing ber immediately nnder hit influence once more, so he deferred tbe performance of the cure for several days. He Raid the girl was so subject to influences that the regnlar ticking of a clock, or the monotonous ringing of a church bell, would sutlice to hypnotize her. Ilis Good Intentions Failed.
