DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
Considering Party Tactics on the Sher-
man ResOlutiOns-The Com.
mittee Membership,

Washington, ID. c., January 90
The Democratic senators held caucus
Immediately after adjournment of the
senate to-day for the purpose of decid-
ing upon the policy to be adopted in
reference to Senator Sherman's reso-
luton calling for an investigation OF
alleged outrages at the elections in
Virginia and Mississippi, and also for
the purpose of considering the selec-
ton of Democratic members of the
new senate committees. The session,
which lasted three hours, was mainly
devoted to the first of these subjects.
After a full and general expression OF
opinion, it was decided the party
action should be governed by circum-
stances when the Sherman resolution
comes up for consideration; that the
resolution merely alleged that outrages
had been committed and voters intimi-
dated by criminal violence at elections
in two Southern states. If Republican
senators in their remarks upon the
resolution should treat the alleged
outrages as ascertained and proved
facts, or should refer to specific acts of
violence and intimidation and should
attempt to charge the Democratic par
ty with responsibility for such acts, it
would in the opinion of the caucus be
proper and expedient for Democratic
senators to accept the issue and enter
actively into the debate, shaping their
course in accordance with the drift of
discussion. This, it was conceded,
would probably lead to heated politi-
cal controversy. If, however, Repub-
lican senators should not directly force
this issue; if they should confine them
selves to general allegations of local
disorder and violence, and not assert
that the Democratic party encouraged
the spirit which gave rise to such dis
turbances, IL was decided to let the
Republicans have the debate mainly
to themselves.
Democratic members of the new sen
ate committee on fisheries and expen-
ditures of public money and several
old standing committees, as provided
in the new code of senate rules, was
then discussed, but the caucus adj
journed without action thereupon.

SHERMAN.
A Bomb-Shell in the County Court
Poisoned by Eating Beans.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
Sherman, January 29.-Just as the
judge had charged the jury to-day in
n case on trial since yesterday, there
fell a bomb (tiguratively speaking
within the rails of the court room
which scattered first the lawyers and
then struck the court between the
eyes. The present term was being
held under the old system, and by APP
pointment of the commissioners, and
cases set and tried hereunder. AS be-
fore stated, a jury mad just retired to
consider their verdict. 1t was cruel
not to advise them that their
travail was all in vain. But we sup
pose they Were advised in due time,
and quietly dispersed. The reason for
this can be briefly explained. The SUI
preme court has just decided 1.-THE de-
cision only just announced and re-
celved to-day that the county courts
can only be held under the amend
ment at once during what is designa-
ted as 1.-THE constitutional terms,n that
is to say, the terms declared by the
amendment to the constitution.
Thus, next Monday first Monday in
February begins a series of regular
terms designated by the amendment,
at least as applicable to Grayson
county. the business to be conducted
thus: The first week to the criminal
docket; second and third to civil bus
mess. The court announced on "bust-
ing up" that the assignment of cases
would be retained, and the docket as
heretofore set be called, the jury cases
beginning the second Monday in Feb
ruary.
Yesterday evenin quite number
of people attended the funeral of Mrs.
Kelley. Among the number present
were four or five parties who have
been employed as stone-cutters on the
court yard fence. After the burial
they took stroll through the ceme-
terry, and in their rounds came across
what they supposed to be castor beans,
which they eat of, but afterwards
proved to be mole beans.
The parties returned to their
respective places and homes,
not thinking that they had eaten of a
poisonous substance, but ere long vom-
iting and indications of poison showed
too plainly that they had eaten from
the wrong wine and fig tree" Ply
sicians were called i'm to wait on the
parties, who pronounced all out of
danger at present, still they are quite
sick and unable for duty. Work, con-
ssequently, has been suspended for
time on our court house fence.
