The scenes of the past week in New Or.
leans were to certain extent re-enacted il
Santa Fe, New Mexico, on Wednesday. In
an attempt to clear the lobby Of the house Of
representatives the disorder became so great
that Speaker Rudolph adjourned the body.
The democratic minority then elected .
speaker of their own, and had Mr.. Rudolph
and two other republicans arrested.
A gentleman from Columbus, Ohio, says
there was no opposition of any account
among the Republican members or the Ohio
Legislature to the reelection of John Sher-
man. The free trade attempt to elect Gov
ernor Cox as revenue reformer fzzled out
as the Governor received one vote, and Ash
ley only made himself ridiculous by bis efforts
to induce some German members to vote for
Hassaurck, a teutonic revolutionist, who has
endeavored to play conspicuous part in our
politics. The United States law making it
obligatory on the two branches of the I.egis.
lature when they disagree to 60 into Joint
convention, worked admirably and check
mated the Democratic schemes for delay.
More differences have arisen in the Spanish
cabinet, this time with regard to the policy to
be pursued in Cuba and the appointment of
Marshal Conchas as captain-general Of the
island. The departure of the latter from Ca
diz has consequently been deferred. So
1t appears that the prompt action Of Lieut.
Governor Mueller, at the session of the Joint
Convention of the two Houses Of the Legisla-
ture, for the purpose of electing United
States Senator, spoilt a nice little plan of tho
Democrats. AT the close Of the ballot the
vote stood: Sherman, ~; Morgan, "a; Per-
rey, /; Schenek, I; Cox, l. Before the re-
suit could be announced, however, the Demo-
Gratis, probably>in accordance with 4 pro-
gramme previously laid out. commenced one
by one to change their votes from Morgan to
Cox. From some cause the Democrats
ceased for moment to work of charging
their votes, whereupon Lieut.. Governor
Mueller began to announce the vote: vio-
lent hubbub arose in the chamber; twenty or
more Democrats jumped to their feet ex-
citedly, and pounded on their desks, stamped
and swore that they must be allowed to change
their votes. But the Lieut.. Governor was
firm, and when order was restored, proclaimed
that Sherman having received q majority Of
the votes east, was duly elected Senator.
The Democrats declare that they will give all
the trouble they can during the the remain
der of the session.

Senator Trumbull in his note to Miss Stanton
had only consented to give the memorialistg.

vention improved the opportunity and finally
forced their way into the room. The hearing
occupied little over an hour, Mrs. Hooker
repeating her previous constitutional argu.
ment in favor of woman suffrage, and Mrs.
Stanton pleading for the ballot on general
principles. Miss Anthony also made few
extempore remarks, but none of the commit
tee asked any question or offered any sug-
gestions. The arguments of Mrs. Hooker
and Mrs. Stanton will be submitted in. writ
ing to the committee, but there is no pros
pect of favorable report. So far as ID
known, woman suffrage is without an advo-
cate on the judiciary committee. The argu-
nents were however very favorably received,

natter and manner. M

Extensive Fire in Winthrop
Bailey e. Co.'s Oil Cloth Factories
Destroyed.
Loss $4,000

We learn that the extensive oil cloth works
of C. M. Bailey & Co., at Winthrop village
were destroyed by fire Saturday afternoon
between four and five o'clock. The fire as
we are informed, caught from friction in the
machinery, and all efforts to put it out were
unavailing. The fire burned the factory and
an outbuilding known as the BAKERY" An
adjoining dwelling house was also CONSUMED.
We have no further particulars.
The total loss is estimated at from $45, 600
to $50, 900. We do not hear that it is COW
cred by insurance. 1t is one of the most
serious calamities that ever took place in
Winthrop, and throws out of employment a
large number of men. Had not the roofs of
the surrounding buildings been covered with
snow it would have been almost impossible to
have saved them from the devouriEg element
As it was one or more of them took fire from
the scattering sparks, but they were extin-
guished. The works that were consumed
turned out annually over half million dol
lars worth of floor oil cloths, and the estab-
lishment was one Of the largest in the State.

CHARGED WITH ADULTERY.-Charles
Gilbert and Mrs. Eliza Hicks were ar
rested and taken before Squire Forbes,
on Monday evening, on information
given by man named Jones, who
charged that Mrs. Hicks was living in
a state OF adultery with Gilbert, she
having husband living in England.
1t appears that Gilbert and Mrs. Hicks
left England together about eighteen
months ago, leaving Mr.. Hicks "a poor,
lone, lorn creetur." They went to Glas-
gov, where, she says, they were mar
ried, and then came to America. They
have passed as man and wife ever since
they have been here, and no one would
have ever been the wiser but for the
woman having a communicative dispo-
sition that prevents her from keeping
all her secrets. Gilbert was sent to
jail in default Of giving 800 bail to an.
swer the charge. The woman was per.
United to 60 at large on giving the same
amount of bail.
