FIRST BALLOT

Evidently Mr.. Arthur was not NOM
mated for Vice President upon the
rec commentators of President Hayes
or Secretary Sherman. nor yet for any
real or supposed merit of his own but
solely to please ''tbe proud and
lordH ConkliDg." Hayes and Sher-
man ought to know as much of Arthur
as any body, and they do give their
opinion of him in language quite I'M.
mistakable, as the following extracts
from their letters will show:
"You have made the costum house a
centre of partisan political mans ge-
nt."-R. B. HayeS 10 Collector ar.
thur, January 81, 1879.
''With deep sense of my obliga-
tions under the constitution, / regard
it as my plain duty to suspend you, in
order that the Office may be honestly
administered.n
-R. B. Hayes to Collector Arthur, jim
uary 81, 1876.
"Gross abuses Of administration
have continued and increased during
your incumbency."-Jokn Sherman to
Collector Arthur, January 81, g1S76.
"Persons have been regularly paid
by you who have rendered little or no
service; the expenses of your Office have
increased, while its receipts haYe di-
minished. Brides, or gratuities in the
shape of brlbes, have been received by
your subordinates in several branches
Of the custom house, and you haYe in
no case supported the effort to correct
these abuses. .''-Secretary Sherman to
Collector Arthur, sTennary 81, 1876.

A False Alarm.

Yesterday lad named Michael O. Rourke,

sively, and becoming unconscious soon after

for from McKiDney's stable, which was sent
to take the boy home. The driver took the

a rag. When the cold, out door air struck
him. however, he stitfened out as rigid as
corpse, and remained SO until placed in the
carriage. On the way to his home the vom-
lting continued, although the patient seemed

BAD SHOOTING.

George Washington Seigsl. Having u Fair
Chance to Lay Out John Allen, Wastes
Three Shots On Him Without Materially
Damaging Him.
There was some more bad blood spilled
yesterday afternoon. but, as generally hap
pens, not sufficient of the fluid was wasted
to do any considerable amount of good.
The parties are George Washington Seigel,
an industrious colored man, and the man
who got the worst of it is notorious and
dangefougdarkey named John Allen, whose
record for crime is as bad as any mans in
ST. Paul. About / O'Clock yesterday after
noon Seigel came into police headquarters
and stated to Capt. Clark that he had shot
John Allen and that he wanted to give him.
self mp. He was locked up and, as near as
could be ascertained, the shooting took place
as follows: .,..-..,..,,.-, g.,
Shortly before noon yesterday the two
men met in Evans saloon, corner of Fifth
and Minnesota streets, when Allen tried his
best to reopen an old feud. Seigel remarked
that he didn't want to have any trouble, with
Allen, and that as he had done nothing to
become the target for his abuse he wanted to
be let alone.
Allen continued to ehafe Seigel, calling
him the most vile and abusive names. Tir-
ing of the abuse the latter left the saloon,
and Fstarted for Ahern's place on the other
corner. He was followed by Allen who
entered the saloon and resumed his attack.
making offensive demonstrations. Seigel
warned him to keep off, instead of which
Allen advanced, when the former drew q
fve-b arrelled, thirty two. calibre revolver and
fired three shots.
One of the balls caromed on the coon's
head, striking the top of the skull, passing
downward and coming out near the right
ear, making flesh wound; q second struck
him in the elbow of the right arm, portion
of the ball fattening against the bone, Great
ing slight wound, and the third ball graz
ing the left shoulder.
Allen walked up to DR.. Abbott's Office
who dressed the wounds, after which he
skipped out.
Allen is roustabout and has long been
recognized by the police as dangerous
character. Seigel is carpenter by trade
and is said to be an industrious fellow.
The impression among both white and
colored citizens is that it served Allen right
and that he didn't get half enough.
Seigel will have hearing this morning.

About to be Foreclosed on the Ohio Sena-
tOrsIstp.
Washington Special, Nov. 26.
Congressman Butterworth, of Ohio, who
has been here several days. and who dined
with Gen. Garfield last evening, in an inter-
view tonight said that he believed John
Sherman weuld be returned to the Senate.
He says that the people of Ohio feel that
John Sherman has done more for the State
even than the State has ever done for him,
and for that reason he is entitled to receive
the unanimous vote of the Republican mem
bers of the legislature. In expressing this
opinion, Mr.. Butterworth says nothing IN
favorable to Gov. Foster, who, he believes,
is man with capacity to fill any public Of
flee, and would make very good cabinet
officer, but, just at the present time, there is
peculiar fitness in sending Sherman back.
His long experience as a financier and his
familiarity with the treasury depart
ment would make his presence in
Congress of great value, in view of needed
financial legislation. The fact that he de.
sires this position should be enough to en-
title him to receive it. Mr.. Butterworth j..
very positive that Gen. Garfield is not taking
any part in the Senatorial fight, as he could
not do so without compromising his present
position. Mr.. Butterworth firmly believes
that Mr.. Sherman will be the choice of the
legislature.
Ex-Congressman Milton 7. Southland SAYS
that if John Sherman wins he will do SO by
the most persistent and untiring work
"Foster," said he, ''is tremendous
opponent. I once had a fight with
him in the House on little political mat
ter, and was kept awake for forty-eight
hours meeting points made by the
governor in opposition to what wanted to
do" In all quarters, friendly and other
wise, Secretary Sherman's strength is now
unquestioned. He believes he can secure
the Ohio Senatorship and have the satisfac-
ton of beating Foster at the same time. To
that end he will work. He has no scruples
about using the patronage at his disposal
and this patronage means great deal more
than patronage ordinarily does at the close
of an administration, for it is understood
that the next administration will not make
sweeping changes, but that good officials
will be reasonably secure in their positions
Indeed, since Gen. Garfeld's arrival it has
been semi officially stated that this was ths

ton will be used, as usual, in payment Of

The Standard OIL Company's Depot.

The storage building of the Standard OIL
Co., which was burned down on the 21st of
October last, has been replaced by new
and larger structure, which was finished on
the 22d inst, and is now being stored with
barreled oil. The pump for filling the two
large receiving tanks is in operation, and
works splendldly. After the fire both tanks
had to be re- rooted and painted inside and
out, preparatory to being tested, which is
done by filling them with water. By the
time the first tank was ready for the test, the
cold snap had come. and there was Ger
tainty that the water would freeze to the iron
sides of the tank as fast as
it was filled, thus preventing it giving signs
of leakage, if any existed. To prevent this
a pipe from the boiler was passed down
into the tank within short distance of the
bottom and steam let through it, which
warmed the water as fast as it was pumped
IN. By this plan the test was successfully
made, and the first tank will be filled i'm
mediately. The other was being filed with
water last night for testing. When all is in
readiness, railroad tank can be emptied in
one hour.

THE MINNESOTA sENAroRsHIp,

At the present time there is a great
deal of interest as to who the legislature
will select to succeed Hon. s. j. r. MCMILLAN
as Senator from Minnesota. The question
does not concern the GLOBE, for it is foregone
conclusion that Republican will be selected.
During Senator McMillan's six years. term
he has created very respectable vacancy in
the office. He wishes to continue that va
cancy By securing his reelection, and has
put in operation what little machinery he
can command with that purpose in view
There is this much to say in favor of
Senator McNillan's reelection: He has
been perfectly harmless, and can do no
harm to the interests of the State, even
though he can do no good.
The aspirants for this position are exceed
ing numerous. First in order may be
mentioned the Hon. Alex. Ramsey, the
present secretary of war, who would not
object to being returned to the body which
he at one time graced with his presence.
He wouldn't say nay if the legislature
should decide upon him as the successor of
the vacancy. He is liable to meet with
grief, however, as the Davis adherents will
no doubt oppose his selection, and probably
with effective results. 1t is not yet known
whether or not exGov. Davis will enter
the lists, but the chances are that if his old
adversary is in the field he will be there also
to combat him.
A great many new men are spoken of in
connection with the office. Gen. John B.
Sanborn, who will be recognized in st. Paul
as the uncle of his nephew, has aspirations
that lean towards Washington. Although
Bill Washburn has in writing repudiated
any claim upon the vacant seat. IL
is generally considered that he would not
refuse call from the House to the Senate.
He will be formidable candidate if his
man Friday, Ole Fletcherson, succeeds in
gaining the speakership of the House, for
which he is very active candidate. There
are few hints to the effect that Gov. Pills.
bury would feel dattered by being sent as q
representative of the North Star State TO thu
Senate, but with becoming modesty the gov.
ernor has not yet given his consent to the
use of his name. There are vague hints,
however, that dark horse may come to the
