the shore, no very vigorous efforts were
made to save them, and just at dark
they disappeared from sight, and no
doubt were drowned. Miss Turner's

It Is estimated that the financial IT.
regulsrities of VIM. Begg, who was ar
rested yesterday for forgery and embez-
element, will amount to about fifteen
hundred dollars. He says he paid debts
contracted while studying law, with the
the money obtained by his forgeries.
His friends claim that he is insane, and
this will be his plea.
A Formidable Reputation.
.LEAvENwoRTH, KAs., November 25.
There are fourteen daily newspapers in
Kansas, thirteen of which have squarely
repudiated the action of Governor Osborn
in nominating RObI. CrOsier to the Uni
ted States senate. The only paper that
defends the action of the governor is the
Commonwealth of Topeka, edited by
Postmaster Henry King. Public senti-
ment almost unanimously condemns
the appointment as a Caldwell victory.
Senator ingalls, left for Washington this
afternoon. A. w. Gillett, at whose sug-
gestion the governor appointed Crosier,
went with him. 1t is understood that
Crosier is not candidate for reelection,
or thst the contracting powers agree
to make him United States district
judge in place of Delahayis place, Gill
lett, Caldwell, Smith & Co. agreeing to
aid Osborn in the election to the United
/ States senate. Crosier, it is understood,
goes to Washington with Judge Della
hays resignation in his pocket, to be
used in case it will DO him any good.
1t is generally believed that Senator In
CALLS had nothing to do with the ap-
pOinIment of Crosier, and that he, with
the balance of the delegation, will not
aid in carrying out the agreement
which is so dishnnOrable to the State
and nation that the members of the leg
islature from Leavenworth county did
not ask and did not know that the gov
ernOr intended to appoint Crosier, and
there is a general disgust manifested
among all classes of citizens at the ap-
pointment, except among the immediate
personal friends of Caldwell. The five
daily papers IN Leavenworth, the home
of Governor Osborne and Robert Crosier,
agree in denouncing the appointment as
unwise.
