publican majority. So far as congress
sional districts are concerned, only two
of those not now in the hands OF the
democrats stand in any considerable dan
ger. These are the frat, now represent
ed by McCoid, and the sixth, represent
ed by Cook In the former, the resent
ment caused by the refusal of the demo-
cratic central committed to permit a fusion
two years ago will destroy a great heal OF
enthusiasm. In 1882 H%agerman, a
bright young greenbacker, was in this
way defeated, when he had a fair chance
for success. This has never been forgot
ten nor forgiven by his friends. Now
that the democrats are anxious for n
fusion on their own candidate, Hall, they
are likely to find out by defeat the extent
of this animosity. Weaver himself will
be the candidate in the sixth and will
probably be elected. Last year this dis
trict was carried by the democrats and
greenbackers by 161 majority. They
may carry it again next fall,
This is about the extent of the posi-.
bilities of alliance. Unless grave blund,

publicans will carry all the districts ex,
cept the second, which is conceded as
democratic, and probably the ninth. In
the fourth district Calamity" Weller,
who was elected by the g~reenbackers and
democrats two years ago, will be re-nomi
mated, but his defeat is a forgone con
clusion.

ANOTHER NEWSPAPER.
The Democratic Club Probably at
the Back of the Scheme.

The air is thick with rumors of the
establishment of another newspaper by
the new Democratic club of Utah and
some of the rumors can be traced to
pretty authentic sources; the intention
had been to establish a paper on the
ruins of the Chronicle but this scheme
we learn has been abandoned, and the
prominent members among the club are
understood to have subscribed some
thing like 5000 with which to start an
entirely new enterprise, to come out at
first in the evening, and then gradually
merge into morning paper. Messrs.
Sheeks and RawlIns, Frank Jennings,
L. Z. Holden, A. Keyser and some
others are prominently mentioned in
connection with the project, and Chas.
A. Clark Esq. superintendent of the
Bradstreet agency in this city, will no
doubt be given the position of editor.
No time has been set for the commence
ment of the issue, but as the Chronicle
is understood to give its final gasp on
the 31st, the new paper may be looked
for Immediately afterwards.

SUPPOSED LOSS OF LIFE.
The Fire Fiend.

New YORK, December 1S.-The Cath.
Ole Male Orphan Asylum, at st. Marks
and Albany avenues, BROOKLYN, was
burned this afternoon, and it is feared
some children persisted in the flames. The
sisters in charge think that all escaped,
i but cannot tell until the roster OF the
boys is called. The little fellows are now
scattered about in care of residents in
! the neighborhood. The fire started in
the drying room, which adjoined the
southern end of the main building. This
drying room also contained boilers and
heating apparatus, connecting with the
dormitoTy on the third floor, in which
there were sixty orphans, suffering from
various complaints. Sister Mary Jose
phine, who was in the dormitary at the
time the fire broke out, made heroic
efforts to save the little ones.
She. re manned in the room until abso-
lutely driven out by the flames; then
she ran to window, where she stood
on the cornice until Forman Nc
Groarty, of engine No. A., from the
roof OF the building, swung his coat to
her. The sister caught the coat, but
when McGroarty tried to pull her from
her perilOus position, she lost her grasp
and fell to the ground. She struck
upon Hof SAlOuAASTS anu HStlu. one was
conveyed to st. Catharine's hos
pital in an unconscious condi-
ton. Joseph Ryan, a boy, tried
to descend by ladder from the same
floor (the third.) He got within eight
feet of the ground when the ladder
parted. He received severe injuries.
| John McGrath, years old, jumped
from the third story and was
badly injured. Mother De Chau-
tel and Sister Anthony were in
the Office when the fire was discovered.
They at once gave the alarm and pro-
ceeded to get the youngsters out. There
were 785 orphans in the main building.
which is also known asst. Johns Home.
They were told to leave the home and
seek shelter in any neighboring house
until called for. Phero was great
excitement among the inmates. Hun
dreds of little fellows ran out into
the falling snow, hatless and coatless
The flames spread with great rapidity
and the buildings were almost com
pletely destroyed. The asylum and
grounds occupied an entire block. The
asylum building was 2l0Xl5O feet, three
stories, with Mansard roof, and con-
structed of blue stone.

How They Got Them

WASHINGTON, December 1S.-In the
executive session of the Senate to-day,
after the confirmation of Secretary Nc
.Culloch. a resolution was introduced by
members of the Senate committee on
foreign relations, reciting in its pre-
amble that the Dominican treaty had
been published in the New York HerGLd
and the Nicaraguan treaty In the
New York Tribune to-day, and
making the proposition that Il special
committee be raised to investigate the
methods by which copies OF these
treaties had been secured by the press.
a suggestion was made that. inaSmuch
as the foreign relations committee had
had the treaties in its custody, the in
vestigation should be undertaken by
that committee. To this members of
committee objected, on the ground
that the members of the COM
mittee would be thus called upon
to sit in judgment upon each other. and
suggested that the Senate committee on
privileges and elections be entrusted
with the duty. Members OF
the latter committee objected
on. general principles, and re-
called to the attention. of the. Senators
the fact that on a former occasion OF
the kind. such investigation had been
undertaken and had resulted only in
bringing ridicule and contempt upon
! the committee and the Senate. An as
sertion was make on the Democrat side
! that special friends of the State depart
bment were first supplied with copies OF
all treaties and the opinion was ex-
pressed by this Senator that the admin
! istration was probably at fault in the
matter. This gave rise to a short but
rather acri monious partisan debate.
Several Senators lamented the inability
of the Senate to enforce its rules. In
reply to which, the point was made that
the rules had better be amended to meet
what seemed to be a popular want.
Some one suggested that the Nicaraguan
government or the Nicaraguan Minister
have given out the Nicaraguan treaty
the Senators generally accepted this as
a probability until it was remembered
that the Presidents message transmit
tai had been published with this treaty
Whereupon the new theory was aban
doned. A new amendment was mex
offered. that the text of the two treatle:

The senate.

WASHINGTON, December 18.-Among
the memorials presented was one by
Hoar, from the Woman's Suffrage As
sociation of Pennsylvania, protesting
against the admission OF Dakota on a
constitution made by men alone and
denying suffrage rights TO women.
HOar, in presenting it, said, while he
favored woman suffrage, he thought it
unwise in the present temper of Con-
gress for advocates of that cause to op-
pose the admission of new State on
abe ground set forth, because when the
Territories of Wyoming and Washing
ton shall call for admission the exercise
of suffrage by women in those Terri
tories may be advanced as an argument
against their admission.
Vest submitted a joint resolution de
claring that without the consent or
authority of Congress the proposed
Nicaragua canal surveying expedition
ordered by the Secretary of the Navy.
was illegal, and directing that the Secre-
tary do not enforce the orders issued on
the subject until definite and final ac-
ton by Congress on the resolution.
On Hills objection. the resolution
went over one day, Vest saying he
would call it up tomorrow, as the ex-
petition was under orders to sail from
New York on Saturday, and prompt ac-
ton was necessary.
Sherman called up, and the Senate
passed, the bill appropriating 1000
for erecting a statue to the memory
of General Lafayette.
The Senate went into executive SEES
sion, the doors being closed, when Sena-
tor Riddleberger continued his speech
