SHERMAN.
WHAT HIS FRIENDS ARE UP TO
The South Don't Want Him-Ameri-
can Commerce in the Future
The Panama Fiasco-
Butler-Etc.
Sherman. the Boomer.

New York, June 4.-The Times to-
day says it seems that the efforts of
Secretary Sherman's office holding
friends, to press him for the presidency
and secure for him votes in the nation
-alTepublican convention, are not to be
confined to the south. In the west also
representatives are travelling, If their
own published statements are to be
credited, quite as much in the interest
Of their chief as for the purpose of
serving the people who are taxed for
their support. The Times then quotes
the case of George B. Corkhill, of Iowa,
who is visiting that state officially as
a special agent of the treasury, and is
openly working in the interest of Sher-
man. 1t is stated that Sherman will
open the campaign in Maine about the
first of July, and that about every i'm
portant republican speaker in the coun-
try will take part in the canvass.

New York. June PA supplement
of the Star and Herald, of Panama,
published on the 10th inst, gives the
following as the terms of capitulation
of Aizpurn, who started the revolution
in Aspinwall on the inst: Aizpurn sur
renders his men and officers, who are
allowed amnesty for political offenses,
but their violations of the common law
must be matter Of subsequent inves-
tigation. He also delivers his arms,
renders up his state prisoner, Mr.. Cas-
orla, and abolishes any nominations
which he has made to civil or military
appointments. In return for these the
government assumes the expenses Of
the war, which directly will amount to
something under 5000.

FOURTEEN GONE.
The Condemned Prisoners of the Last
District Court Seek New Quar-
ters in the Lincoln Pen
itentiary.

There was considerable hustle and
stir in and about the county jail yester-
day afternoon, preparatory to the ship
ment. of the conyicts to Lincoln,
Nebraska. Indeed the hammering of
the iron shackles would have led a
stranger to believe that it was black
smith shop instead of Jail. There
were fourteen of the unfortunate men
who were shackled up for the ride to
Lincoln, who had been tried by jury
of their peers, found guilty and SEN
fenced to various lengths of time in
the penitentiary. The following gives
the names, crimes, and length of i'm
prisonment that each is required to
serve:
Charles Ross, attempt to kill and
murder, twelve years.
Harry Clifton, robbery, ten years.
Charles Clark, manslaughter, first
degree, six years.

months.

RANDALL.
HE WANTS TO ADJOURN NOW,
And Aleck is of the Same Mind-Cox
Would Rather be Hung Than
Imprisoned-Foreign
Affairs.
War to the Knife.

Washington, June 24.-Speaker Ran.
dali has been an extremist, and now
fayors the policy of .war to the knife''
with the administration. He expresses
himself very decidedly in favor of i'm
mediate adjournment and allowing the
judiciary bill to go by default, and if
the president calls congress together
again in extra session to once more
adjourn peremptorily. 1t is not prob
able that the speakers advice will be
followed, as number of conservative
democrats are thoroughly disgusted
with the way in which their leaders
have managed the party, and these are
ready to unite with the republicans in
making the appropriation necessary
to keep the courts open.
Immediate adjournment is out of the
question, but if the advice of the demo-
cratic senators like Bayard, is followed,
adjournment can be had within ten
days.
Alexander II. Stephens has written
letter to Speaker Randall, saying the
democrats have done all that could
reasonably be expected of them in the
effort to reconcile the differences be-
tween congress and the executive, but
that after such a veto as was sent in
yesterday, there is an end to any fur
ther expectation of compromise, and
that he is now ready to stand by his
party friends in refusing to pass
another bill.
The democratic advisory committee
held a session to-day and talked over
the situation without coming to any
definite conclusion. The majority hes
itate about making complete surren-
der. As desired by a majority of the
democratic senators, the committee
will draw up another bill and present
1t to the house appropriations COM
mittee for action. A member of
the advisory committee to-day said
that after the meeting it was i'm
possible to guess with any degree of
accuracy when an adjournment will be
had.

Cox.

Boston, June 24.-This morning Cox,
the murderer of Mrs. Hull, gave the
officers minute description of how the
murder was committed, saying he
smothered her with his hands. and de-
claring that he did not intend to kill
her.
Steinberger, the pawnbroker, visited
Cox and identified him as the man who
pawned the set of cameo jewelry which
led to his arrest. In conversation with
an officer Cox said:
81 don't want my mother to know
anything about this till after l am
hung"
The officer said, "Perhaps you will
not be hung; there may be a chance of
your being sentenced to the state prison
for life.''
Cox-"I would rather be hung than
be shut up all my life, and when the
time comes send my things to my
MOTHER
Cox appears nervous, apparently re-
alizing the terrible situation in which
he is placed He says he came back to
New York after the murder and never
felt any anxiety about being captured.
