THE deadlock in the New York Legis-
lature continued unbroken on the 21st, with
no signs of any immediate solution of
the Senatorial puzzle. EX-Vice-President
Wheeler has come forward as leading can
didate agans Conkling, and II is understood
he favors a compromise by which the Stall
warts shall have the naming Of one Senator
and the Half breeds the other. The Stall
warts held a conference, which was ad-
dressed at length by ex-senator Conkling.
He utterly repudiated any plan looking
to compromise, and stated as his
ultimatum the elec ion OF two Salwart
Senators or an adjournment to give the
people Of the State chance to pass upon the
questions at issue. The Half breeds met
and were addressed by Senator Woodin. He
favored compromise, but bitterly opposed
letting Conkling have the naming of ono OF
the Senators. A resolution was adopted
pledging those present to remain the yeaI
out il Senators were not sooner elected.
Twelve Feathcrheads also met in confer
ence. They are agreed upon one point, viz,
TO support neither Conkling nor Depew, bu
fail to unite upon any one candidate. They
will vote with the lIalf-breeds on the queS'
tion of adjournment

. the last hour, granted a respite Of four weeks
to the Talbot brothers, sentenced to be

Dr. LEM, in recent lecture at Pairs
on his journey from Morocco to Tim
buctoo. has been correcting some of the
generally received notions as to the
condition of the Sahara. 1t really forms
great plateau, about |, 100 feet above
the level of the Atlantic. In no part of
the plateau is there to be found that de-
preston below the level of the ocean
which is shown on the maps of certain
Ceographers, and which has led to wild
schemes OF converting the Sahara into
a great inland sea. Moreover, the
Sahara is not one dead sandy level but,
is really greatly varied in aspect.
Rocks are succeeded by sandy plains,
here and there are oases covered with
alfa grass, and stagnant shallow sheets
of water. The fresh water fossils,
which are met with in many parts,
show that the Sahara as not the bottom
of dried up sea. Again, the tempera-
ture is not nearly so hot as raight be
expected. In short, the Sahara is not
so bad as it has been called; wild beasts
are rare, and the most formidable ene-
mics TO be met with are the Touraeg
tribes. who, according to report, mas

ed in st. Paul for local effect, we see
that a number of our rural exchanges
are advocating fourth term for the

not among the impossibilities. Since
the defeat of Col. Pfaender two wears
ago, the Minnesota valley has been
unrepresented in the councils of the
State, and now that we have a good
candidate in the person of Hon, A.
Il. McGill the valley Republicans
owe it to themselves to give him a
hearty support. Honest John has
made a good Governor, and while he
may have displeased some by his
course on the bond question, no one
has ever questioned his good inten.

competent to discharge the duties Of
the office in an intelligent manner,

The Writ Of Prohibition Granted.

The opinion Of the Supreme
Court in the State Railroad Bond
Tribunal case was filed last Satur.
day, The Court holds:
First That the constitutional a.
mendment Of 1860, providing that
no law for the levying Of tax, or
other otherwise providing for the
payment of the State Railroad
Bonds, shall take effect or be in
force until ratified by majority Of
the electors of the State. is invalid,
because it 'impairs the o3ligament
of the contract between the State
and the holders of the bonds
Second That the act Of March I'd,
1881, for the adjustment of the State
railroad bonds, is unconstitutional
and void, because it delegates leg.
islative power to the .tbond trib-
unal.
Third-That a writ Of prohibitions
shall issue to restrain the tribunal
from acting.
This decision renders imperative
the ''bond adjustment act'' of last
Winter, and leaves the whole mat.
ter of adjusting the State railroad
bonds with future Legislatures.
The Court was unanimous on all
points decided.

A most daring train robbery was
perpetrated last Thursday night on
the Chicago & Alton railroad, about
sixteen miles from X Kansas City. Mo.
The following particulars Of the
robbery have been received:
On q high grade, six miles this
side of Glendale, where train was
robbed q few years ago by the James
boys, and four miles from Indepen.
dence, the engineer saw on the track
IN time to stop, an obstruction which
proved to be ties piled up several feet
high. At the instant OF the train
stopping the engineer and fireman
were ordered from the engine and
taken a short distance away and
placed under guard. The mail and
express cars were entered, and the
clerk and messenger knocked down
and placed with the engineer and
fireman at safe distance, where
they were guarded by three men.
A party Of five entered the cars and
robbed the passengers of watches
and money. A long time interven-
ing from the time the train came to
q halt and the entrance of the rob-
bers, gave the passengers time to
secrete the greater portion of their
money, and there were only q few
who lost large amounts. A Mr..
Hyde states that the robbers came
into the car ctrsing and swearing,
declaring they would shoot the first
man who opened his head, and who
dld not dlsgorge at once. Several
OF the passengers were treated rough.
", and several were thumped on the
head, but none injured to any seri-
Gus extent. All rejoice at getting
Oft so easily. The passenger train
was followed by a freight, and but
tor the heroic conduct of one Of the
brakemen who ran back with q lam
tern and signalled it adisaster would
have occurred. He was fired at rs
times, but luckily escaped without
injury. After securing everything
they could, the bandits with wild
yells of defiance, mounted their
horses and gallored away, and were
lost sight of in the dark.
On leaving, the leader of the gang
told the engineer to tell the officers
to come on; they were ready for
them: There is no possible doubt
but that the leader of the gang was
the notorious Jesse James, and one
OF the robbers gave the engineer 50
to buy drink in the morning, and
drink it for Jesse James. Later re-.
ports from the scene of the robbery
say that some of the robbers have
been arrested, but the report needs
confirmation.

The President was safely removed

The President was safely removed
to Long Branch last week Tuesday
and his physicians are Of the opinion
that he has already been greatly ben.
Gifted by the change, and on Friday
last he was reported convalescent.
On Sunday the symptoms were much
more unfavorable and the case was
further complicated by the formation
Of an abscess in his lungs. The at
tending physicians do not fear any
serious trouble from that source. La.
ter dispatches from the sick chamber
report the President recovering from
the lung trouble, and that the surgeons
feel more encouraged.

Washington was startled on Sunday
by the announcement that the assassin
Guiteau had been shot by one of the
soldiers doing duty about the Jail. An
inquiry developed, the fact that Serqt.
Mason, one Of the sentinels, had fired
at Guiteau from the outside, and that
the shot had gone through the window
opposite the prisoners cell and into
the cell window. As Guiteau was lean.
ing on the window watching the arriv.
al of the relief guard, the ball could
not have missed him more than three
or four inches at farthest. Guiteau
was scared nearly ont Of his wits and he
cr0uched down in one corner Of his
cell, uttering loud prayers for pfotec-
ton, and literally .writhing about the
floor in an agony Of fear. The Ser
geant has been placed under arrest for
violation Of his trust.

Sitting Bull and his band Of hos.
tiles have been removed from Fort
Yates to Fort Randall. Old Bull
protested and refused to leave Stand
ing Rock agency, and when told he
must go declared he would rather die
than go aboard the steamer. He
seemed beside himself with rage and
told the Interpreter that if COMPELLED
to go to Fort Randall he would
make his escape, and calling his
warriors about him again, would
kill all the whites on the upper Mis-
souri, and burn the government posts
and agency buildings. While thus
yelling his threats to the INTERPRETER.
. squad of soldiers were holding his
hands and feet, and q sergeant
was binding him with a heavy rope.
When firmly secured stalwart blue
coat took the chief upon his shoulder
and deposited him in the cabin of the
steamer. The resistance of Sitting
Bull, and his appeals to the other In.
dams for assistance, provoked rip.
pie Of insubordination, and at
one time q mutiny seemed imminent.
The troops knowing how PREACHER.
Gus the Indians are, stood in readi.
ness to open fire upon the insurrec.
tlonists. The Indians, finding that
only repulse and severe punishment
awaited them in case they attempted
the release of their chief, went quiet
aboard the steamer. The removal of
Sitting Bull has created considerable
dlstrust and dissatisfaction among the
other Standing Rock agency Indians,
and trouble il anticipated.
