lSpeclai telegram 10 ie btsT''Sp'J
WASHINGTON, December 25.-lt was an
nouncsd In the Metropolitan Methodist
church last night that the members of the
several Indian delegations who recently en-.
braced religion at this church are doing good
service among their brethren.
After 1t becomes definitely settled rs to
what the State government is in Louisiana,
additional sensations are promised in the
shape of an election for United States scna-
tor to succeed Kellogg. The fight is princi-
pally between Piuchback and Casey. The
chances are very much in favor of Pinch
hack, who relies upon his colored brethren,
while Casey has only the prestige of being
Federal office-hoider, together with his rcla-
tionship to the President, to send him to the
United States Senate.
The usual holiday dulne$s prevails in all
Official quarters, somewhat intensified by the
absence of the President, who will return
here tomorrow. TIaoN.
