which is chargeable to them in their long
business career in Chicago. They published
notices of separation without giving even a
hint to newspaper men or the general pub
lic.. Mr.. Letter retires from the business.
These men have beyond all dispute the
leading dry goods firm west of New York.
Their business has made them merchant
princes inside of 20years, and is now yield
ing munifcent returns. Year after year,
from the profits of their business, they
have acquired some of the most desirable
and central business houses in the city !;
they have become owner Of large and pro-
ductlve mines in the West, and they have
taken leading positions in society and local
/ politics. The ostensible cause for the sep
aration Of these two successful men is the
claim Of the retiring partner that he is
| overworked, and prefers to draw ont and
| attend only to his other business interests /:
| but gossip is spreading q story that the
| good ladies Of these estimable gentlemen
| are affected with the venomous passion OF
| jealousy, and have socially ostracised each
| other for many months. Letter can afford
TO leave, since he takes with him to CON-
fort him in his declining years a very snug
| competency, estimated at from S., U00, 900
TO Si2, 00O, 900. These two men are in the
very prime Of life, being not much past
As. They have been a credit to Chicago.
Their mercantile course has been manly,
| and they have commanded respect from
| their employees and from the general public.
speech of senator Jackson.
NASHVILLE, Jan. Ex-senator Jackson
| said to his serenaders last night, anent his
| own election: "In retaining the Senate Of
| the United States the Democrats will thus
| insure to the country peace and prosperity
for four wears, and it is the desire OF the
conservative element of the country that
the Senate remain Democratic. thus allay-
| ing alarm in reference to sectional agita.
ton" This speech clearly indicated that
| on all political questions he will act as a
straight-out Democrat. Senator-elect jack
| son is q man of handsome and dignified
appearance. He is the son in-law of Gen.
G.. w. Harding, owner of the Bellemead
| stock farms. He was born in Paris, Tenn,
in 1882, having held a political Office un-
Ill elected from Madison county to the
present Legislature. He is q LAWYER of
marked ability. and is President OF a large
oil mill at Jackson. He has been promi-
nent in educational reforms, and was high
ly complimented by leading Southern
statesmen for his efforts in behalf of
State credit. He is a man of great purity
OF character, int is popular with both
Democrats and Republicans.
Republicans FilibusteriDg on the
Electoral Resolution.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The failure Of
the Democratic majority of the House Of
Representatives to make a quorum yester-
day, when the Republicans abstained from
voting, and the marked success of the lat
ter's flibustering tactics will probably lead
to q postponeEent of further efforts to
pass the Electoral resolution until Taylor,
the Democratic member who left for Ten
nessee on Monday to take part in the Sen
atorial contest, shall return, and perhaps
until Martin, the illegally seated North
Carolina Republican, shall have been re-
placed by the Democratic Senator who has
been declared entitled to the seat. The
two additional votes would exactly CON-
plete a quorum composed wholly of Demo-
Gratis, but even il they he secured, the Re-
pubiicans intend to continue to filibuster
against the adoption of the Electoral reso-

stand firm in their opposition to this
measure, and say they will persist in EN-
ploying dilatory tactics against it until the
second Wednesday in February or the 4th
Of March il necessary.
Another Effort for the Jeannette's
Crew.
NEW York, Jan. 27.-The Herald prints
= letter from Chief Justice Daley to Presi-
dent Hayes, conveying the resolution OF
the American Geographical Society, call
ing for Government aid to rescue the
J~eannette's crew. in which letter Judge
Daley says the Corwin is q small vessel
and not fitted to face her way through the
floating ice to Wrangle Land, which Capt.
Hooper thought, however. could be dome
with q stronger v. ssel. The Galena, now
at the Mediterranean station, is sucll q yes
sci. b is q new and strongly built
wooden steamer. and ought to be able, if
properly arranged for the purpose, to carry
abou, 6u0 ton of coal. Very little would
be required to do this, and adapt her for
Arctic work, and there is sufficient time
for her to go around the Pacific and to get
through Behring Straits, which is generally
open to the Arctic by the end of June.
The Herald concnrs, and adds: The time,
however. for taking adequate measures
for relieving the Jeanette is short, es-
