Druggists INDIANAPOLIS, IND. AX AMERICAN 2I0T CAKLO. Gambling Resort Backed with Ten Millions May be Established on an Island Off California. Cuicago, Jan. 6. An afternoon paper says: A stock company haa boen organized with a capital of $10,000,000 to establish a Monto Carlo gambling resort on a small island off tbe California coast about thirty miles from Santa Barbara. Most of tne stock has been taken by New York capitalist. The island will be fitted up in grand style, and gambling will be carried on in more sumptuous apartments, if possible, than those that make the European Monte Carlo so attractire. This information is obtained from G. 8. Chapin, who is the only stockholder in this city. Matters are in abeyance for tho present, as the question of ownership of the island lies between Mexico and tbe United States and is a mooted one. It is proposed to put on a line of steamers to ply between the island and Santa Barbara and run the establishment tbe year round. The paper mentioned the names of Walters. Maxwell, of California, who -was urged for chief of the horticultural department of the world's fair; I. L. l'olk, bis brother-in-law, and John L. GafTney, a member of the California State Board of Equalization, in connection with the project. HEIR TO $1,000,000. Daughter of the Late Ex-Cosgreesman Cros3 Found Living in Poverty in California. Cnico, Cal., Jan. a Last Friday L. R. Mclntire, a private detective of St. Johnsbury, Vt., arrived here, hired a team and went over to Qlenn county in search of J. M.

As the father opposed the marriage the couple eloped. Several years later they came to California. The mother of the girl has since died, and last July tbe father died, leaving the entire fortune of about 81,000.000 to this only daughter. Detectives have been searching since the father's death, and finally located the daughter in Glenn county. Martin for several years lived In this city in very poor circumatances, nnd a month ago moved to Glenn county. Martin and his wifo and the detective left to-day for St. Johnsbury..

ATE TOO MUCH RICH FOOD Secretary Blaine Suddenly Attacked by Illness While Working at flis Desk. Physicians Hastily Summoned, Who Found the Distinguished Gentleman to Be Suffering from Xausea and Indigestion. Eis Trouble Relieved with Warm SaltWater and a Mustard-Plaster. Sensational Stories Concerning Apoplexy Denied by the Doctors Will Be Able to Resume Work To-Daj-The Chilian Affair. STRICKEN WHILE AT WORK. Secretary Iilaine (Suddenly Attacked with - Nansea and Severe Vomiting. Washington, Jan. C. Secretary Blaine was taken with an attack of acute indigestion while in his office at the Statf Department, about 11 o'clock this morning, and was compelled to suspend work for the day. He was engaged In a consultation with General Foster on reciprocity matters at the time. He told General Foster he was feeling badly, and, at the latter's suggestion, Dr. St. Clair, Chief of the Consular Bureau, was called in to see him. The latter found that ho was suffering from indigestion, and, with General Foster's assistance, placed him on a sofa. A light emetio was given with favorable results and soon after the Secretary said he felt very mnch relieved. In the meantime the news of his illness spread through the departments and caused considerable excitement, and as a matter of prudence Chief Clerk Brown summoned Medical Director Van Reypen, of the Navy, whose office is on the floor below the Secretary's office, and sent word to Miss Blaine to come to the department. Dr. Van Key pen responded immediately and Miss Blame was soon at her father's side. Assistant Secretary .Wharton and Chief Clerk Brown also entered the room for the purpose of rendering any possible assistance. Dr. Van Reypen was accompanied by Surgeon McClurg. of the navy, who happened to bin his office when the summons camo. They made an examination, and found that there was little need of their attention. Dr. St. Clair having done all the case required, hut, in order to allay any possible irritation of the stomach resulting from excessive vomiting, it was thonght best to apply a mustard plaster for a short timS. The Secretary rallied rapidly and completely, and when Dr. Hyatt, his family physician, arrived, was strong enough to put on his overcoat and gloves, walk to the elevator and go in his carriage, as if nothing had happened. While he was lying on the sofa, suffering from the prostration that followed the vomiting, bis daughter became somewhat alarmed, and appealed to Dr. Van Reypen to know if she had not better send for her mother. Tho physician assured her, frankly and confidently, that there was not tho slightest occasion for alarm, and that Mr. Blaine would be able to walk home, if it were necessary, after he had taken a little rest. , NO CAUSE FOR ALARM. When the Secretary left his carriage and walked into the bouse his family was satisfied that the rumors that bad just reached them of his illness were very much exaggerated, and his son, wbo was at the time making preparations for a visit s to Philadelphia, realized that there was nothing in Bis father's condition to cause any change in his plans, and he started for the station accordingly. As he was leaving the house he informed a reporter that his father's attack was very trilling and that he expected that he would be down stairs to luncheon later in the day. The physician, ho added, had given it as his opinion that the Secretary had rather overeaten of late and had taken too little exercise. This, in his opinion, had caused the nausea which had so startled the officials at the State Department. So little importance was attached to tbe incident that tho President was not notified of it until late in the afternoon. He then walked over to Mr. Blaine's house but did not see him, as he was asleep. He was informed by Mrs. Blaine, however, that the Secretary's illness was only temporary, and that he would probably be able toretnrn his call to-morrow. All sorts of rumors were afloat to-night in regard to Mr. Blame's condition. The majority were of a most sensational character, being to theetlectthat he had broken down completely and was in a most critical condition. Some of them went so far as to assert that he could not possibly recover. In order to ascertain the facts, representatives of the Associated Press to-night interrogated the physicians connected with the case. They were interviewed separately, and each of them, without knowing what the other said, asserted positively and without qualification of any Kind, that Mr. Blaine was sutlering from indigestion, caused by overeating, and from nothing else. Dr. St. Clair, who was the first physician in attendance on Mr. Blaine, and who was with him nearly an hour before the other physicians' arrived, made tbe following statement of tbe case: "Last night Mr. Blaine complained slightly of a sense of uneasiness in his stomach. It was not sufficient, however, in his opinion, norm the opinion of Dr. Hyatt, his family physician, who happened to be present, having been called to see Mrs. Blaine, to require any medical attention. Ho arose as usual this morning, feeling quite well, ate an unusually hearty breakfast, came to the department at the usual time and began the duties of the day in the usual manner. Shortly after this he began to feel nauseated. He called General Foster's attention tohis condition and General Foster sent for me. I reached the side of the Secretary inside of two. minutes. It was then about a quarter after 11 o'clock. The Secretary was suiiering from extreme nausea. TOO MUCH RICH FOOD. - "With Mr. Foster's assistance I helped him to the sofa. The aansea became more and more pressing unf il Anally vomiting commenced. It was easy and natural, and the Secretary succeeded in ejecting a large quantity of mixed and rich food. Thinking it advisable that bis stomach should be thoroughly emptied. I ordered a tumbler of tepid water, and added a little salt, in order that the dose might be thoroughly nauseating, and induced the Secretary to drink It. Copious vomiting followed, the last of the matter discharged indicating that the stomach was then empty and clean. Witbin a few minutes the Secretary's pulse began to rise until it was absolutely regular and normal, and he was, barriug the natural prostration which always attends extreme nausea, as well a man as he had been for many months. His eyes were bright and his color good. Dr. an Reypen, who came in about this time, applied a single mustard-leaf over the larger curvature of tbe stomach to allay any irritation which mignt possibly remain after the vomiting. So further contraction of the stomach occurred, nor was there any indication that it was likely to occur. A short time after this Dr. Hyatt arrived and found the patient in excellent condi

tion, but from abundant caution prescribed a single draught of limewater, with a few drops of carbolic acid. The Secretary then got np and walked to his carriage without any apparent effort. He was then taken homo, and 1 have not seen him since." Dr. Van Reypen said he felt a delicacy in talking about the case, but upon being informed of the alarming rumors in circulation on the subject, dictated the following statement: "Chief Clerk Brown came to my office about 12:20 to-day and asked me to step up stairs and see tbe Secretary, who Was, he said, sutlering from an attack of indigestion. Surgeon McClurg, of the navy, was in my office at the time, and accompanied me to Mr. Blaine's office. We found him lying on tho sofa perfectly rational. He had recovered from an attack of nausea, having already ejected the contents of bis stomach. His whole trouble was in consequence of having eaten too much richly-seasoned food for breakfast. He suffered the penalty of having a good cook. A.'ter he had vomited his trouble was over. I applied a mustard-plaster to his stomach to allay any irritation that may have been remaining, and that was all the treatment he required. Dr. Hyatt called just as I had removed the plaster. 1 transferred the patient to his care. The Secretary at that time had quite recovered from his attack. There were no othersymptoms present at any time, excepting those of an overloaded 6tomach." NO SYMPTOMS OF ArOrLEXY, This concluded Dr. Van Hey pen's statement. Ho was then asked if there were, as rumored, symptoms of apoplexy in the case, and he replied: "None whatever, nor indeed were there symptoms of any trouble other than I nave already indicated." Dr. Frank nyatt, who is Mr. Blaine's regular physician, stated in the most positive terms that Mr. Blaine's illness to-day was "simply an attack of acute indigestion resulting from hard work, lack of exercise and a heavy breakfast, and nothing else." lie said Mr. Iilaine rallied quickly and thoroughly from the attack and was soon able to proceed home in his carriage without assistance. He said he called on Mr. Blaine about 5 o'clock this afternoon and found him in very good condition, the nausea having entirely disappeared, his pulse and temperature being normal. He was not sutlering in the least at that time, and the pbyaician added that there was nothing in his condition at present to require any further attention at his Bands, lie would not call again to-nigbt. because he did not think it necessary, but be proposed as a matter of prudence to make another visit to the Secretary tomorrow; about noon. He expressed the opinion that to-day's attack was partially due to a cold contracted by the Secretary two days ago while working for some time inaroom with the thermometer down nearly to C0. This, together with hard work and lack of his cnetomary exercise, due to the bad weather, had made him more susceptible to indigestion than ho otherwise would have been. Dr. Hyatt said he was very much encouraged at the manner in which Mr. Blaine rallied from the attack. He went through it, he said, as well as a young and hearty man would have done. Dr. Hyatt denied most emphatically that there were any symptoms of apoplexy in the case, and said that, on the contrary, he doubted if a person predisposed to apoplexy could have successfully stood the ordeal of violent vomiting through which Mr. Blaine had passed, lie said the fact that Mr. Blaine had rallied so completely from this attack, was satisfactory proof to him that his physical condition was remarkably good. ' At midnight it was stated at Mr. Blaine's residence that he was much improved and was resting quietly. He had been sleeping the greater portion of the evening. The dootor has not been with , him since late in the afternoon. SUING FOR PEACE.

Belief Gaining . Ground that Chili Is Now Trying to Avoid Trouble. Sreclal to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, Jan. 6. Tho greatest interest is felt In' Washington in the developments of the next few days concerning the Chilian complications. There seems no doubt that Minister Montt has succeeded in impressing the new government of Chili with the extensive preparations of war already made by tbe United States and of the folly of attempting to enter into a conflict with this country. By his conspicuous presence on tbe noor of tbe House yesterday and by a long interview with Secretary Blaine the Chilian minister has succeeded in creating a further impression that Chili now desires peace above all things. . In the meantime those in charge of the interests of tbe United States in this controversy arc acting precisely as if they believed that tbe publication of the evidence as to tho brutality of the assault upon the sailors of the Baltimore, as well as some of the correspondence concerning that outrage, would so , inflame public opinion in this country as to make it almost impossible for Congress to avoid an immediate declaration of war. A preliminary portion of the report upon the testimony given by the sailors of the Baltimore as to the Valparaiso outrage, has through Judge Advocate-general Remy, of the navy, already reached the Department of Justice. Attorney-gsneral Miller gave further evidence to-day of the unwillingness of the administration to inllame the public mind by announcing that no portion of this preliminary report will be given out for publication at this time. The Baltimore arrived in San Francisco only yesterday, so Captain Schley's preliminary report, to have reached Washington today, shows that it mnst have been telegraphed across the continent. A newspaper might think little of such enterprise, but this speed on the part of the government indicates that a crisis In tbe complications with Chili is rapidly approaching. In the meantime it is interesting to note the effect already apparent npon the disposition of Congress toward continued and adequate appropriation for the new navy. Minister ilontt was nnable to leave Washington to-day to attend the dinner of the Home Market Clnb, at Boston, to-morrow. In his letter of regret he said, in effect, that inasmuch as he was in daily communication with tie Minister of Foreign A flairs at Santiago, his absencefrom Washington at this juncture might retard the promotion of a good understanding. Cleaning the Baltimore's Bottom. Vallejo, CaL, Jan. 6. Tbe cruiser Baltimore arrived at Mare-island navy-yard from San Francisco late yesterday afternoon. Off South VaJlejo she tired a salute of thirteen guns, which was responded to by a sevengun salute from the battery on the island. An extra force was put at work, and the cruiser was hauled into the dock under the electric liizbts. During the day conflicting rnmors have been prevalent, tbe general opinion being that the apparently pacific turn of affairs in Chili might entirely alter official plans in relation to tbe cruiser's movements. But interviews witb Admiral Irwin and bis subordinates, of every class, leave no doubt that the cruiser Baltimore will be rushed tbrougn the dock and sent to sea gain within a week or ten days. Every man of the crew of the Baltimore that could be spared was put to work this morning scraping tbe bottom of the cruiser of barnacles. The extent of the other repairs will have to be determined by an examining board, but it is not thought there is anything to prevent the cruiser from being completely refitted in eight days. The inquiry which will be commenced by Judge Advocate Remy into tne attack on the sailors at Valparaiso will be very thorough, aud may last several days, as there are about thirty witnesses to be examined. Alleged Purchase of Transport. Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 6. The Press, to-morrow, will print the rumor that tbe government has puichased the steamships Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Pennsylvania, built m this city some years ago for the American Steamship Company.

EASY VICTORY FOR SHERMAN

Nominated for Senator by theRepnblicao Caucus at Columbus Last Night. Received 53 Totes to 33 Cast for Ex-Governor Foraker and 1 Each for Secretary of the Treasury Foster and Jlajor 11 cK in ley. Spirited Debate Over a Secret-Ballot Proposition That Did Not Carry. Graceful Speech from Both Candidates, in Which Both Paid Tribute to the Other Foraker Not Sore Oyer His Defeat. SHERMAN, S3; FORAKER, 38. Such Was the Result of the First Ballot In the Republican Caucus for Senator. Columbus, O., Jan. 6. The Republicans of Ohio have spoken, and John Sherman is to be the next Senator from the Buckeye State. Joseph B. F'oraker is defeated. For thee days there has been but one result staring the ex-Governor's supporters in the face the ultimate election of John Sherman. But even the inevitable was nnable to dampen their enthusiasm, and they have found a glory in going down to defeat with their leader and attesting a devotion which none but the fiery Foraker could have inspired. With the expiration of the senatorial term to which John Sherman is to be elected he will have completed forty-four years of continuous public service, but six years short of half a century. It will be a record without parallel in the history of American statesmanship, for every year of this long public service will have been spent at Washington, and in the service of the federal government. Born in 1823, John Sherman is sixty-nine years old. As a young lawyer he was elected to Congress in 1S54, . at the time of the Kansas-Nebraska troubles, and as a member of the congressional committee on the Question of extension of slavery in 1651 he wrote the famous anti-slavery report which thrilled the Nation and made him one of tho prominent leaders of the day. How well he has maintained that prominence in a service of six years in the lower house, four years in the Cabinet as Secretary of the Treasury, and an aggregate of twenty-eight years in the United States Senate, the pages of American history bear record. The joint caucus convened at 8 p. M. in the hall of the House of Representatives, and by acclamation Speaker Laylin, of the House, was selected chairman. He made a felicitous speech, abounding in compliments to both of tbe candidates, and the call of the roll showed every Republican assemblyman present, except Representative Jackson. Quite an interesting conflict took place over the question of admitting the public, but a motion was finally adopted directing the Sergeant-at-Arms to clear the galleries. The vast audience of spectators hissed this action roundly, and it was only after a great deal of trouble that tbe Sergeant-at-Arms performed his onerous task. LIVELY DEBATE OVER. METHOD OP VOTING. The first division of sentiment took place npon a resolution of the Foraker men for a secret ballot Immediately the Sherman forces moved a substitute providing for an open ballot by roll-call, and lively debate followed. Representative Griffin, of tho Foraker forces, insisted that a secret ballot was necessary in order to protect men from intimidation and coercion. "The only argument against a secret ballot," said he, "is the desire that he who dares to vote as his conscience and his convictions dictate may be exposed to the bulldozer. I Applause. 1 The right of secret ballot is one of the greatest prerogatives of a free public, and that right is rigidly presented at the polls by every law npon our statute-books." Applause. 1 Senator Green maintained that Mr. Griffin's arguments were fallacious. "Every man in this caucus," said he, "comes here as the representative of his constituents to do their behests, and I say woe be to the man wbo. in open or ceeret ballot, dares to set at defiance the will of those constituents." Great applause. Representative Taylor warned the caucus that it was by eeeret ballot that the Domocrats, a few years ago, nominated "Coal-oil Payne" for the United States Senate, and irretrievably wrecked their fiarty and doomed themselves to private ife. Representative McGrew's argument was little short of sensational. "Aro we cowards or are we menf" said he. "Twice has notioe been served upon us that tbe calamity of private life may be our portion if we fail to respond to that side which has been the greatest strength of noise and of threats. It won't do to talk about lookiug people in the face. We say to them, let somebody else look somebody else in the face. Sensation! We have nothing to hide, but we demand that men be protected against coercion. We object, too, that auy one in powerful position in the Nation shall cast his shadow npon this assembly, tohover over men here and make them do something not in accordance with tne dictates of their own conscience." Applause. After an hour's impassioned debate the substitute providing for an open ballot was adopted by a vote of 47 yeas to 44 nays, three members not voting. THE NOMINATING SPEECHES. In an eloquent speech Senator Nichols! of Belmont, presented the name of John Sherman. "Tried and proven by the tests of time." said he; "weighed and found not wanting by the balances of subsequent events, yielding to jio promised popular theories which are doomed to an ephemeral existence; tempered by no visionary whims for mere temporary relief, capitulating not with demagogues and surrendering not to dishonesty; true to friend and fair to v foe. Just to the weak as well as the strong, he asks only for right, and submits not to wrong; loyal to the protection of the rights of labor, without unjustly disturbing the rights of property; believing that when the muscle of toil or the hand of patriotism to our country, in her trying or dral for her perpetuated existence has rendered a dollar's worth of services, that hand should receive as compensation therefor a dollar with a hundred cents' wprth of purchasing power. Prolonged applause. Vote for him: for in that sublime act you honor yourselves, better your constituent, servo your country and your God." Prolonged applausu. Representative Griffin, of Lucas, nominated Joseph B. Foraker, and his speechwas frequently interrupted with enthusiastic applause. "In tho summer of 1862," said he, "when the life of this Nation was trembling in the balance, and when tbe hearts of strong men wavered in view of the rapidly-accnmnlatmg misfortunes wbicn wero overtaking the armies, of the Nation, a lad of sixteen, born and bred npon a farm, willingly and gladly, full of life, and bope. and patriotism, offered his life, if neod be, bis best services upon the altar of his country. He unlisted as a private soldier. He went to the front with others, and wben a redoubt or a battery was to be stormed with youthful vigor and impetuosity, he was with the foremost. lApplause. During tho entire war until it ended . he served as a private soldier." ICheers, After reviewing ex-Governor

Foraker'a official record, the speaker concluded: "The man whom I name is one of those gallent men who never deserted a friend or turned his back npon the enemy. Applause. He never songht a quarrel and he never ran from one. Always true to high principles, always true to the Republicau party, there never has been a campaign in this State when he was not in tho foremost of the battle, leading as best he might on to victory. Applause. He has always been true to tbe principles of the Republican party because he is a Republican on principle. I take pleasure in presenting the name of Joseph B. Foraker, of Obio." Representative Welsh, who has for weeks insisted that be wonld vote for no one but William McKinley, placed tho Governorelect in nomination for Senator lu a spicy speech, and urged him s "tbe man of the occasion, and the one wbo, if elected, would best subserve tbe interests of tho State of Ohio and the Nation." Representative Dicks, of Hamilton, in bis turn, nominated Secretary of the Treasury Charles Foster, but there was a slight disposition to jeer the gentleman, and he was brief in his speech. The nominationsof Sherman and Foraker were seconded by several gentlemen upon each side, and it was 10 o'clock before a ballot was reached. Just before the ballot a telegram from Governor-elect McKinley was read, saying: "1 have been advised that my name may be presented. Promptly withdraw it." Upon this authority the chairman withdrew Mr. McKinlev's name, but this action did not prevent Air. Welsh from subsequently voting for hiscandidato. There was intense excitement duriug tbe roll-call, and as doubtful men recorded themselves they were warmly applauded by the faction with which they voted. The result was: JOHN SLIERMAN 53 J. II. FORAKER V CHARLES FOSTER 1 1 wm. Mckinley l Amid tremendous applause Sherman was declared tbe nominee. On motion of a Foraker man. Senator Sherman's nomination was made unanimous, aud a committee was appointed to wait npon both Sherman and lorater and invite them to appear before tho caucus. THE CANDIDATES SPEECHES.

Sherman Returns Thanks and Foraker 'Gracefully Acknowledges Defeat. Loud eheers greeted the appearance of the two distinguished Ohioans as they entered the hall and were escorted to the Speaker's stand. "Senators, Representatives and fellowcitizens," said Senator Sherman, on being introduced. "I returu to you my bearttelt thanks for the very high honor you have conferred upon me. Long trusted by the peoplo of Ohio, 1 am under obligations that I cannot express iu any language at my command. 1 owe to them. 1 owe to you all that could be said by a heart overflowing with feeling, and I, therefore, will not attempt to express these emotions which now fill my heart with respect to you and the people of Ohio. Applause. We have just passed th.ough quite a contest the most formidable contest I ever encountered in Ohio, and I hope more formidable than any 1 will ever be called upon to encounter hereafter. Laughter and applause. I know, gentlemen, that you have been called upon to make a choice. It was unpleasant to you, because yon would have liked to have voted for us both, and would have been glad to have had two Senators to elect instead of one. Applause and cheers. "1 am glad to say that in this contest I have held in my language and in my heart the highest feelings of rcpect . and honor for the gentleman who has been my competitor, and who is now before you. Prolonged applause. He is entitled to the love and affection of the people of Ohio, and if you have given me this nigb honor because of my experience, you have not underrated the high qualities, mental and moral, of Governor Foraker. lApplause.

Prolonged cbeers.1 "As Senator Sherman has said, we have been having something of a contest. ILaughter. For the last ten days we have been divided into Foraker men and Sherman men, and we have been striving against each other. There has been, possibly, some tasping and some friction, but at this hour it is our highest duty to remember that, from now henceforth, in tho language again of the Senator, we are no longer Sherman men or Foraker men, but Republicans always. IGreat applause. Let us here and now put behind us, with the contest in which it belongs, whatever of unkindliness of feeling, if there be any at all. that may have been engendered. So far as 1 am concerned I am glad to be able to say to you, gentlemen of the Seventieth General Assembly, that I have not an unkind thought toward any one of you. and, no matter whether he has been friend or foe aoplanse and 'Good, good' 1, 1 have no resentments, no bitterness of feeling to carry borne with me. On the contrary. I shall go back to the pursuit of my profession with my mind and my heart filled with only a grateful recollection, and a pleasurable, and, 1 trust, pardonable pride for the gallant, intrepid band wbo have honored me with their support in this contest Cheers. "Without any disposition to criticize or find fault in the slightest degree, but only as excuse in so far as tnat may be necessary for enlisting in a cause that has not ben crowned with success, but defeat, let roe say to these friends that when we entered npon it I did not foresee some of its features. 1 was not awaro then, as we bavo since come to know, that we bad to fight not only those Republicans of Ohio wLjo wero against us, but, because it was grand old John Sherman on the other side, it was the whole United States against us. Laughter and applause. "The Senator has said he does not want any more contests like this. ILanchter.l 1 thank him for the compliment, and vouch to you that 1 do not want ever again to cross swords with Sherman. Laughter and applause. I shall pick out another fellow thenexttime. Renewed laughter. Hut, gentlemen, I shall detain you no longer. Loud cries of "Go on; go on." We are in the preseuce of another great contest. It eo happens that tinder our form of uovernment wo pass only from one campaign to another. That which is now before us is a national contest. We are to determine in November next whether we shall continue at Washington a Republicau administration or whether it snail bo succeeded by a Democratic administration. This is no time forme to dwell upon the important consequences of such a change, but 1 allude to it only t admonish you as Republicans that, standing as we do in the presence of such responsibility, it is our duty to get shoulder to tboulder, and at one to prepare not only to look to tho future, but to move forward after tbe banner of Republicanism to a grand and triumphant victory, which it is our duty and which will bo within ourpowertoachieve."

STILL SORE TOWARDS ROSSIA

EjCon federates and Their Sympathizers Even Up an Old War Score. Money to Carry Flcur to Famine Sufferers Refuted Because Alexander II Prevented aa English Alliance with the Confederacy. Eesolution Indefinitely Postponed After Eliminating tho Appropriation. Lively Debate m the Honsa In Whieh "Fire Cent" Economy Arguments Were Used to Conceal the Motives of the Brigadiers. GETTING EVEN WITH RUSSIA. Ex-Confederates in the House Oppose Send lug Food to Famine SufTcrera. ' pedal to the Ib&anapolls Journal. Washington, Jan. C They are in the saddle yet. The confederates have entered npon their mission of retaliation anew. This time they have directed themselves to Russia, who, at a critical moment during the war of 1&C1-5, prevented an alliance between tbe Confederate States and England by which the Unien would have been swiftly turned over to the rebels at home and abroad and Union soldiers placed iu tho bands of the hangman. It is a matter of familiar history that at a moment during the war when both sides were straining every nerve for vantage the Confederacy sent its agents to England and made every po Me promise for an alliance with that cc y, and that finally its overtures were f A and tho terms agreed npon; that ah arranged for England to make a precipitate demand upon the federal government to raise her embargo against the exportation of cotton to that country, which exportation would have given the Confederacy unlimited sinews of war, and immediately npon tho refusal which would have followed, the Lnglish fleet was to move into our waters and fire upon tho harbor cities of the Union Stales. In other words, England bad made terms for joining the Confederacy aud becoming her active ally in war. Her largest men-of-war were gotten in readiuess; her demaud was made, and she was about to move wben suddenly two of the most formidable war ships of Russia appeared iu Hampton Roads within view of Fortress Monro e Va. Other Russian war ships put into Union ports, and Alexander II notified the federal government that Russian services were at our disposal to maintain neutrality on the part of foreign governments generally, and England in particular. Th's step of Russia paralyzed the Confederacy, which was in high feather and felt that the victory was already won. For twenty-fivo years the sleeping Confederacy has been waiting to avenge the interference which wrested victory .from its bloody. hands, and it was not till to-day that its opportunity came. The Confederacy of the House, assisted, by a number of dough-faced rebels from Northern fttates, indefinitely postponed the joint resolution which was passed by the Senate yesterday, without reference to committee, making appropriation for the chartering of a vessel to send to the seaports of Russia the cargo of breadstufls whicb is being contributed by the farmers of the great gram-growing State of tbe West and Northwest for the starving Russian peasants. This resolution might have passed the House on tbe same day it passed the Senate bad it not been for the objection instantly raised by ex-confederata General Buck Kilgore, of Texas. This objection caused the resolution to lio over till to-day. thus giving the ex-confederates in the House time to organize their opposition to what would have been a grateful tribute not only to humanity but the bistorio friend and ally of the Union. Confederate Colonel Oates. of Alabama, waved his sleevelesr Arm in frantic opposition, and ex-confederates Herbert, of Alabama, and lloatner, of Louisiana, rendered effective aid. The cause of humanity was eloquently supported by such men aa Raines, of New York, and Boutelie, ot Maine. INDEFINITELY POSTPONED. The Resolution Emasculated and Then Put to Sleep Polnta from the Debate. Washington, Jan. 6. There was a lively time in the House to-day. It began soon as the journal had been approved. The Speaker. pro tern, having laid before the House the Senate joint resolution authorizing tbe Secretary of the Navy to transport contributions for tbe relief of the suffering people of Rassia, Mr. Blount of Georgia asked that it be referred to the committee) on naval affairs. If anything was to be done it was easy to be seen that it must be done at an early day, he said. He therefore further requested that that committee have , leave to report at any time. To this Mr. Kilgore of Texas objected, and he contended that the resolution nnder(he rules came under the jurisdiction of the committee on appropriations and that it should be referred to that committee. The Speaker pro tern, thought that in the absence of rules tbe House could dispose of the resolution as It saw fit, but tho first motion in order was one of reference. Mr. McCreary of Kentucky presented the petition of Cassius M. Clay, formerly minister to Rnssia, in favor of the United States extending aid to the famine sutlerera. Mr. Blount of Georgia then moved that the House proceed to tbe immediate consideration ot the resolution. Mr. Kilgore raised the point of order that this could not be done. The Speaker ruled to the contrary, but further ruled that a motion to refer would bave precedence. Thereupon Mr. Kilgore moved its reference to the committee on appropriations. Messrs. Blouut aud Herbert argued in favor of sending the mutter to the naval committee, while Mr. Kiluoro thought it should go to the committee on appropriations. Mr. Bryan of Nebraska hoped the appropriation of lO0,OuO would be stricken lrom tbe resolution. If Congress was not empowered to aid the citizens or people of its own country in Nebraska during a drought, how was it empowered to carry corn raised this year iu Nebraska to th people of another country? Where would thisstopf How how partiality to one nation and not to othersf His Republican friends were claiming that the McKinley bill had thrown out of employment many laborers iu other countries and they were now in distress. If it was our duty to aid thooe whom tho wisdom of God had brought to distress, bow much more would it be our duty to aid those whotn the folly of an American Congress had brought to distress. Applause and laughter. Mr. Raines of New York strongly advocated the resolution. Mr. Boatner contended that Congress had no power to pass tho resolution. Mr. Oats made a constitutional argument against the proposition. Mr. Kilgore taid that in deference to tho views of his colleagues he was inclined to let the resolution go to tbe committee on naval aflairs. with leave to report at pleasure. Mr. Boutello protested against tbe referencethe resolution ought to be considered at once. Mr. Blount said the record showed that inl&7and 1&? the; resolutions wero tits-
