ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
WASHINGTON. April 24.-The President
IS looking about and exercising a great
leal of care in selecting those who shall
compose the Utah Commission. That ex-
Paddock has been agreed on as
one of the members who shall compose it,
here is said to be little doubt. He has
oeen in New York lately, and at first re-
to accept, but finally, after reconsid-
,ring, consented that his name might be
lsed. Ex-Secretary Kirkwood should be
placed on the Utah Commission, but Sena-
.or Paddock's selection will result in the
appointment as the Western rep
-esentative upon the Tariff Commission,
place he much preferred.
Miss Phoebe Cozzens of St. Louis is
bringing every possible influence to bear
whereby she may represent the Govern
in the adjustment of the Mormon
question, and she has urged the Missouri
to assist her. Senators Cock
rell and Vest are agreeable, and have so
indicated; but others, while willing to do
all in their power to assist Miss Cozzens,
do not believe that the appointment can
be obtained by her, from the fact that it
would be a recognition Of female suffrage
by the President.
Probably a Well.FOunded GrOwl.
New YORK, April 24.-The Tribune's
London correspondent says that Charles
Reade's ingenious argument in support OF
the theory of DR.. Lamson's insanity
makes only a slight impression. Medical
opinion seems to be mistaken, both of the
leading journals affirming Lamson's re-
sponsibility. Nobody now doubts the fact
that he poisoned his victim. Not an ex-
pert is known to attach any Importance to
the American evidence. The general pub
lie considers that Sir Vernon Harcourt
has gone to the limits of courtesy in ex-
tending Lamson a respite. Not a few
growls are audible at the Difference shown
to foreign interference. The Saturday
Review, in an article unusually free from
acrimony, expresses the opinion that the
American Government interfered in a
Eighty. inconsiderate manner, and that
the evidence submitted was nothing but a
mass of random gossip.
Blaine's First Interview With Ship
herd
WASHINGTON, April 24.-Ex-Secretary
Blaine appeared before the Foreign Rela-
tions Committee to-day, and in connection
with the testimony of Shipherd said he
had read his testimony and endeavored to
understand it. Blaine said he never saw
or heard of Shepherds letter in the State
Department until it had been called to his
attention, as it was scarcely fit for the
waste basket. Witness said he knew moth
ing whatever as to how the letter came to
be missing from the files. His first inter-
view with Shipherd. SO far from lasting far
into the night, only lasted Is minutes, and
witness did not see %Shipherd again for
three months.
VIII Not Go Back to Congress.
NEW YORK, April 24.--Speaking of Mr..
Blaine, the Suns Washington correspond
ent says: Blaine begins to show very
plainly the wear and tear of a quarter of a
century of exciting political life. He is
evidently growing old, and of late years
has been obliged to face not only foes from
without, but plaques from within, in the
shape of rheumatic govt. If Blaine were
in perfect health, and younger, he would
like nothing better than to go back to the
House, the scene Of his old combats. He
never felt easily in the Senate. and recog-
nized that his going there was a mistake.
But whether he goes abroad or not, it is
pretty safe to predict that he will not 20
back to the House Of Representatives.

CINCINNATI, April 24.-The Times and
Star, at Gr%eensbury, Ind, says a mob OF
so masked men, at 8 o'clock this morning,
called on the %jailer, and by choking him
tried to get the keys, but failed. They then
knocked the jail door in, took out o. NJ.
Garrett, and hung him to a silver maple
tree 10 feet from the jail, and left him,
placing a placard on his body, reading,
''This is a greeting to the Jennings County
jury" Garrett had been acquitted in
Jennings County OF completely in the
assassination of Mr.. Walton, by a negro
named Frazer, and after acquittal was ar
rested on another charge. There are fears
that the mob will next hang Frazer and
Mrs. Walton.
