Northern Pacific Ne,r Settlers

During the month of April the Northern
Pacific company issued 1886 colonists' tick
cts to persons going out upon its road to
open farms or engage in business in the new
towns. About two-thirds of the number
took tickets for Dakota stations and the rest
for stations between the Mississippi and Red
rivers. Ia the same time tho company's
land department sold 29,564 acres OF land,
mostly for Immediate settlement, and the
United States land Office at Fargo recorded
563 entries of government land under the
pre-emption and homestead laws, covering
1920 acres.
E EAdvices received at the land depart ment
as to the appearance of the wheat fields are
uniformly to the effect that the young grain
stands well, is of good even color and is
growing fast. The early part of the season
was wet and cold, retarding seeding and the
growth of the plant but at this time the in
dications are more favorable to heavy crop
tnan they were at the corresponding date of
last year.

WASHINGTON, May 10 Ex-senator Cam
eron has written letter 10 his son within a
week counselling him to take up Mr.. Blaine
on the ground that the third term is too un-
popular 10 carry and there is apparently an
authenticated report that leading third term
tr;in New York, friends of Senator Conk-
ling, are discussing the advisability of solid
ifyiGg tho New York delegation by dropping
the * President aud taking up Mr.. Fish.
The third termers here favor this change
and it Is said are urging ifuponsenator Conk-
ing as a necessity because a split in the
New York delegation would be a serious blow
10 the Senator's predominance in the State
and would moreover endanger the election
of such legislature this fall as would elect
a Conkling man to the United States Senate
in place of MIR. Herman.
Messrs. Conkling and Cameron are irritat-
cd at Senator Logan who is supposed to have
neglected Illinois too long, and thus placed
that State in a critical condition. 1t is be-
ieyed by many people here that if the ex-
President is abandoned. Mr.. Cameron will
strike for himself, and refuse TO go further
in his company.

wHITTAKER's WOE.

He Tells of His Call on Gen. Schoasld. The
Testimony of Expert SouthwOrth He
Thinks Can be Explained s
WEST POINT, May 16-In an int erview to-
day Whitaker states that last evening he
was invited to General Scoield's house, the
latter saying he had sent for him to say that
there was considerable hard feeling against
him and asked him if he had nothing more
to say, or wished to make any confession,
and if he did that it would be good time
to do it.
Whitaker replied he had nothing further
to say; that he had told all he knew and it
was the truth, and that if he had not told the
truth and desired to confess anything Cen
eral Scofeld would be the first man he
would go to an account of general uniform
kindness towards him. Whitaker said the
general advised him to collect the letters he
had written lately because in that way it
might be possible to learn who had
simulated his writing. He said the General
told him he had his best wishes, and Whit
taker judges from that remark that the GEN
eral believes he is innocent or he would
never have said it.
Whitaker was asked how he accounted
for some of the discrepancies in his state
ments, and he said he could not account for
them. He argued that the presence of dis
crepancies showed he was honest, for, said
he, if had invented the story, would have
learned it by heart, and then there would
have been no discrepancy. He was asked
how it was he never noticed that the writing
in the note of warning was like his own.
He said he had never thought of it, and if
he had written it he would not have ex-
hibited it to four or five persons.
He was asked what he thought of the ex-
pert's discovery that both sheets were of one
paper. He said that didn't amo unit to any
Thing because all cadets use the same kind
of paper, and that he wanted to say he found
the note of warning on his chair beside his
table in the night. He was in the habit of
tearing whole sheets into halves to write
on, and the parson who wrote
on the note might have come
to his room and taken piece of paper and
with many samples of his handwriting be-
fore him might have forged the note.
Gen. Schofield says, as the report of the
court is to be presented to him, he does not
want to say anything on the subject. Any
reports of fears of disorderly action by the
cadets against Whitaker are premature, as
it ls the understanding among them to allow
the court to take care of the whole case.
Prof. Greener still claims Whitaker is in
nocent, and says he has some important
points which he intends to make known over
his own signature. but not to the court.

IN THE HEADS OF THE SENATE.
Senator Randall Don't Believe 1t Practical
BILE to Wind up in May-The Dirty Linen
of the Christianov's-F Figuring on the To-
dian Question.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. /


WASHINGTON, May 16.-It will now be for
the Senate to say whether Congre IS shall ad-
journ May 31st. The opinion is as much
divided there as in the House, although the
situation has not been so thoroughly can-
vassed. Many Democratic members of the
Finance Committee are known to be opposed
ia adjournment. until some of the important
bills are acted upon, and there is a very
strong pressure in the Senate in favor of
passing the bill to regulate counting the cleo
toral votes, as many fear it will be impossi-
sible to pass such bill at the coming short
session. Speaker Randall is reported to have
expressed the opinion that in view of the de-
termined opposition in the House, it will be
hardly possible to adjourn May 81, for al
though general adjournment resolution for
that date has passed the House, there will be
likely to be 30 mach delay upon general leg
islation as to make it impossible to finish
business.
THE CHRIsTIANCY DIVORCE.
Some new sensational publications have
been made relative to the bill for divorce
brought by ex-senator Christiancy against
his wife, but the lawyers for Senator Chris
tiancy say that nothing has been given out
about the bill, and that the stories that have
been published are untrue. 1t is not true
that Mr.. Christiancy alleges any act of adul-
terry with any person. The most that he
does is to charge that Mrs. Christiancy was
guilty of improper conduct. There is some
possibility that Christiancy's application will
be thrown ont of court here on the ground
of want of Jurisdiction, inasmuch as Chris
tiancy is not legal resident of this district.
