PAIGE FOR PAINE.
The Ohio Congressman Confdeat OF
His Election a. Senator.

GRcSbt W pte IsSytStcs
WASHINGTON, November 25.-"Payne will
be Senator" said Congressman Dave Paige
last night "He has the votes, sure"
"How many" asked the reporter.
HE has enough. He will have more
votes than Pendleton will have"
"How about Durbin Ward and Geddes
and Converse"
"Oh, there's nothing in that. They don't
enter into the question. It has got to be
either Payne or Pendleton, and when it
comes to that it won't take the Democrats
in the Ohio Legislature long TO make their
choice. tell you Payne is the man
sConeressman Paige is very emphatic
about the matter. He seems to think
1t is Practically Settled.
Paige is working like beaver for two
things in particular just now. One is to
elect Randall speaker and the other is to
beat John G. Thompson for Sergeant.at-
Arms. People who know the Akron Con-
gresham and who know what formidable
mixer he is, can understand that as friend
of Randall and as an enemy of Johngee, he
can make his influence felt. There is
formidable combination working against
John u. Thompson, and 1t Is Curlously
mixed up with Ohio politics and with the
Payne senatorial boom. Wherever you find
a Payne boomer you find man who says
Thompson must 60.
Payne for Senator, Randall for Speaker,
Leedom for Sergeant-at-Arms, Hoadly for
either President or Vice President, and
red hot fight in Ohio next year is said to be
the programme of this combination.
Thompson Is stu Sick.
but PROCESSES to be confident that he will
have a majority of the Ohio delegation.
The indications are that he will find him.
self mistaken. He has been claiming cer-
lain Ohio Congressman friendly TO his in
terests, who in TACT will vote for Leedom.
For instance, he has been putting Ben lie
FevIe forward ss one of his champions.
Now there is nothing more certain in the
wOlid than that Ben Lefevre Is bitter
ant-Thompsol man and will vote for Lee.
dom. 1t is said he has personal reasons
Ior this, but the fact remains. The bes;
opinions are that Thompson caunot count
on more than five OF the thirteen ONO
Democratic CongreSsmen. There is moth.
ing to change the opinion heretofore ex-
pressed that Randall will capture the
Speakership without much trouble.

MURDERED FOR REVENGE.
he Perpetrators of the Michigan Mur-
der MOI Vet Found.

JACKSON, MIcH., November $50 far
the mystery surrounding the perpetrators
OF the murder of Jacob Crouch, Henry
White, his son-in-law; Mrs. White, his
wife, and Moses Policy, a guest, found
dead in bed riddled with bullets, at the
Crouch farm in Spring Arbor, is not clear
ed, and the officers are bailled. There is no
clew, the guilty ones having planned their
work so well ss to prevent any sign for
their detection coming To light. 1t cannot
be ascertained what booty the murderers
secured, though it is probably large. The
belief is growing that the crime was more
for revenge than robbery, ami two parties
who have had trouble with the Crouch
family are being sought fer. The stom-
achs OF the four murdered persons will be
removed for analyzation, as ii is supposed
some cider they drank just before retiring
was drugged. Mrs. White would have be
come q mother in q short time had she
lived. Julia Reese, the servant girl, and
Bolles. the colored man are still in custo-
dy, but nothing can be CLEANED from them.
The mystery about this terrible crime is
not being cleared so far.

A MISSING SKULL.
The Chief End of MoOney's Victim. An
Important Link. Disappears.

JOLIET, ILL, November 25.-Another
sensational episode in the Mooney murder
case has occurred, caused by the mysteri-
Gus disappearance OF the skull OF Moneys
victim, Anderson. Il will pc remembered
that the disgusting object was introduced
in evidence during the trial to. prove q
wound which the experts for the .efense
swore it was impossible to inflict. The
prison physician, DR.. Campbell, kept the
Skull in q bucket in the basement under
his office Tonight when he went to get
it for the purpose OF removing it to 9 safer
place to preserve it for the new trial, the
bucket was empty. The skull had been
taken away, thereby putting out of the way
one of the most damaging evidences against
the prisoner. A change of venue has been
asked for, and the case will dou btless be
removed to Chicago. The indignation
over the setting aside of the verdict has
not vet subsidized.
