THE sPEAKERsHIP FIGHT.
senator Beck's Outline of the Plan of
the Democratic Leaders.

Washington Special CoUrier-JournaI "a.
The National Republican this morning
has the following on the Beck interview:
''The interview emanating from Senator
Beck. and published in the Democratic
papers in several cities Saturday morning.
is generally understood TO have been the
authorized utteTance of about dozen of
the leading Democratic free trade Sena-
tors. who have been running back and
forth between this city and New York for
the past two weeks, trying to hit upon
scheme TO save their party from hope
less split on the tariff question.
said Democratic politician of prOmi-
nence last evening: ''Beck's interview is
a carefully prepared paper, and it may be
taken as formal declaration of the rep
reSentatiVeS Of that portion of the party
antagOnistic to Sam Randall and the pro-
( tectiye interests he represents. The old
hard-heads Of the party are determined
to force the issue and have 1t settled
one way or the other at the be-
ginning of the next Congress. They
are fighters. and when they pool
their strength they are a power. They
feel that their only hopes Of success
next year is in crushing the protection
element of the Democratic party i'm the
first battle, showing no mercy and letting
the full purpose of the fight be clearly
understood from the jump. They have
abandoned the hope that they can have
harmony on the question. but they propose
compelling a semblance of harmony, if
nothing more. They have drawn the
lines and Will force the fighting.
"Beck claims that the determination
arrived at regarding the organization is
without regard to men, but that much of
his statement must be taken with a grain
OF salt His relations with ex-senator
Mcdonald and Mr.. Carlisle are of the
most friendly character personally and
politically. and the three stand upon
identically the same platform, so that it
is reasonable to suppose that the Ken
lucky Senator's utterance is a public
blocking out of the McDOnald-C Carlisle
campaign-McDOnald for President and
Carlisle for Speaker. That construction
viii be put upon the interview at any
rate, and / am disposed to think that
view Will be the correct one. 1t begins
to look very much as though the contest
for the Speakership may be decided fairly
and squarely upon the tariff and anti-tariff
issues, politics cutting very little figure.
Il notice that the Republican papers
very generally take kindly to RandalPs
candidacy. partly because they want
high protective Speaker and partly be-
cause they know his election will split
the Democratic party all to pieces. Such
being the case, might not a large element
among the Republicans join issues with
kaads-lrs friends and elect him? Carlisle
gives Randall EiXty votes to go in with,
ana RandalfS votes May be relied on to
De thrown for him under any ana all cir
cumstanees. The Speakership contest is
gong 10 develop some mighty queer COM
blnatlOns, and there is liable to be fII-
riOas sattling Of dry bones i'm the next
ninety days.

that the trial of Archibald B. Newton for
killing Samuel Mcmillan, near Sanford

large sum of money always about
him. Newton, an East Indian by
birth, lived near and was poor. Mcmillan
disappeared September 30, and shortly
afterward Newton and his wife were
very flush with money. On October II
McMillan's headless body was found in
Crystal Lake, partly consumed by fishes,
with large rope around the waist tied to
pot of nails. The rope, pole and nails

stantial, and the trial was bitterly con-
tested by the counsel employed by
English relatives of Newton. The Jury
