A QUIET SABBATH.
The Committee Of Eighteen Loek up and
Go Home.
WAITINGFOR THE BOSS ANDBAR'L
His Arrival To-day not Likely to Affect
the Result.

Where was Window when the boom went
out?
Yesterday was the dullest day since the
Senatorial rumpus began. The Minneap-
oils crowd, who have charge of the Window
boom had all gone home. The Office holders
having been kicked out'of the camp were
minus. Dick Huntington and Sim Childs
gathered their grips and left for home
Saturday night. Poor Bickel, who wasted
his wealth in swelling up the German
members of the Legislature at Grote's, was
so crushed by being kicked to the rear
that he was invisible. Dick Richards,
Collector of the Port, found the
weather too cold to be out, and
Postmaster Day did not enthuse below
Wabashaw street. Mail contractor Blake
ly preferred his home freside. District
Attorney Searles and Marshal Denny fed
on Saturday. In fact there was some tall
swearing, and q general clearing out of
federal officials, when they learned
from the GLOBE on Saturday morning the
insult heaped upon them. Even Gen. Nc
Laren, has so recently been in Office that
he took the resolution to himself and lock-
ing up the Window headquarters absquat-
ulated.s A GLOBE envoy called at room 13,
Merchants hotel, last night, the supposed
Window headquarters, and found them
locked, dark and deserted. That is the
way the celebrated committee of eighteen,
selected by the friends of Window" be-
gins the recuper ating campaign. The
denial which the chairman of the commit
tee of eighteen made that he was booming
for John S., might, perhaps, be extended
to Window also. At all events the GLOBE
does not wish to raise another privileged
question by accusing him of booming for
Window. The only evidence that could be
discovered last night that there was boom
for Window somewhere, was the humorous
trips of the bell boys between some of the
upper rooms and tho bar. The trays Of
whisky and cigars, egg nog, etc., which
were flying upward, betokened little an
imation in the Window camp. There was
no other sign of life.
There was no outward development of
any change in the situation. Two more
names were given as sure toleave Window
to-day, and it has been stated that that
egregious ass, Pat. Child -smarting under
the insult to his mail agent brother-would
leave Window and vote for Cole. This is
probably untrue, as no such super-service-
able genius would think of being wounded
because his brother was kicked out of town.
No one seems to know when the boss,
with his bar'l, will arrive, except that it
will be sometime to-day. If he has made
close connections he will be here this morn
ing, and if not, this afternoon. He has
telegraphed for roome at the Merchants
and the bar'l will be on tap there this even
ing. The 'ssmall potato FOOLS" the "feeble
minded creatures" and the zone or two
dozen ineffably dirty creatures" may be ex-
pected to swarm about the great man as
soon as he arrives.
The opposition are still in a scattered
frame of mind and will probably vote to-
day about the same as Saturday. No eau
cuses or conferences were held yester day or
last night, by any one, and the day was
observed as circumspect as any Sab
batarian could desire. There is a good
deal of undercurrent setting toward Mr..
Sabin, which is liable to swell into an ire
sistable torrent if taken at its food. In the
current hotel talk he is frequently spoken
of as a probability, while no one can be
found with SO little political sagacity as to
assume that Window has any chance what
ever.
