TILDEN'S STILL HUNT.
Things That Southern Senators are Di
cussing


Southern Senators, says a Washington
special, are discussing freely and resent
fully the evidences that reach them every
day of a Systematically organized Tilden
boom in every Southern State, conducted
upon a basis that ignores all Southern
leadership and appeals to the lOcab press
and the people. There is no love lost be-
tween Mr.. Tilden and the Southern Sena-
tors and Representatives who voted for
and promoted the Electoral Commission
which made Mr.. Hayes President. Mr..
Tilden has always suspected some of these
gentlemen of questionable bargaining
with Hayes during that eYentful winter
of 1S76-77. On the other hand, Southern
Democratic leaders of that day have been
unanimous in the statement that in
no instance were their approaches
to Mr.. Tilden, while the q2es-
tions of the electoral count were
pending, received with either candor or
counsel. cold and decOrous ciyility
met even so eminent Democratic leader
as Senator Bayard, who, with many lead
ing Democratic statesmen, sought the ad-
vice of the Sage of Gramercy Park as to
the wisest methods of procedure by Dem
Ocratic members of Congress. In the
management of the Tilden boom in the
cover the existence in MIR. Tiden's mind,
or in that of his prompters, the same dis
trust of themselves, and they do not deny
that while they have been reading the
varying accounts of Mr.. Tilden's health,
a well-planned literary bureau has been
disseminating its plans for Tilden through
out the South with a success that the
Senators themselves may not be able to
stem. Said one of the Senators to-day:
s'The old fox is a worthy product of the
Van Buren, school of politics, but
the South beat Van Buren, in 1874,
and 1ilden may find stumbling
blocks ahead of him that he
does not yet see." Mr.. John BigelOw,
whose name this Senator pronounced in a
manner which would have shocked that
statesman and diplomatist, and Mr.. An
drew II. Green are regarded as the keep
ers of Mr.. Tilden and the directors of all
the machinery with which the South is to
be ''set up' for Tilden, according to the
belief of the Democratic leaders from the
South. The Senator already quoted said
that it had been several centuries since a
Spanish army had followed the dead Cid,
and that he did not believe the American
people would forgive the insult of Offering

bund old man, who would, even if alive

A ROMANCE OF THE KITCHEN.
A Jealous Woman Shoots Her Rival in
Fashionable Boarding House.

A Jealous Woman Shoots Her Rival in
Fashionable Boarding House.
At a fashionable boarding house on
Eutaw place this morning, says a Balti-
more special of the I'd inst. to the New
York World, Martha Gardiner was shot
and badly wounded by Irene Newman.
Miss Gardiner was seated at the break
fast table with George Bryan, when Irene
entered the room, and without moments
warning fired at Martha, the ball piercing
her neck. The lady was borne from the
table, and soon after Miss Newman was
arrested and lockedup at the station house.
The crime was prompted by jealousy
and unrequited love. 1t was rumored in
the neighbOrhood that the shooting had
occurred among the bOarders, and much
excitement prevailed until the status of
the belligerents was made known. Irene
Newman, who did the shooting. is a
cOmely mulattO girl of nineteen years,
and was engaged to be married to Bryan,
but Martha had, it appears, supplanted
herself in his affections. Bryan and Mar
tina, both colored servants, were seated
at breakfast when Irene entered the
kitchen and, without a word of warning,
drew a revolver from beneath her apron
and taking deliberate aim fired at her
rival. The ball passed near the head of a
lCtIe cnlld which was seated at the table
and penetrated the neck of Martha, Iodg-
ing in the vertebra. The wounded
girl shrieked and fell to the
floor and the other servants fed in
terror from the room. Physicians dressed
the girls injuries and she was afterwards
sent to hospital. Irene was committed
She was very cool at the police station,
and simply said she had made up her
mind to ''iX herr (Martha), because she
had taken her lover away from her. The
weapon used was a Colt revolver of s.
calibre and the wound inflicted may prove
fatal.
Bryan, when asked by the Magistrate
what he had done to stir up jealousy be-
tween the girls, said that he had done
nothing. He had tried to please all the
girls, and had shown no special favor to
any of them. Bryan is a youth about
nineteen, the same age as the girls, and is
quite dainty in his apparel. He had his
hair parted in the middle, and large
gold ring on his finger, and he wore pair
of eelskin pants.
He afterwards said that he was not in
love with any of the girls, but that he
liked them all. He had taken Martha
Gardiner to church several times recently
| and about month ago he took Irene to a
party held at his mothers house.

ABDUCTING A MIDGET.
Little Zarate, the Mexican Mite, Stol'
and Recovered at Cleveland.

Little Zarate, the Mexican Mite, Stolen
and Recovered at Cleveland.
A desperate attempt was made last
night 20 abduct Lucia Zarate, the midget
now on exhibition at the Dime Museum,
says a Cleveland, o., special of the I'd
inst. to the New York World. Among
the recent improvements to the museum
building is stairway leading from the
rear of Curiosity Hall to the alley below,
intended as a fire escape. From the
upper landing of the stairway a
door opens into the dressing room
of the midget. just following her
introduction at O'Clock and her
return to her dressing-room, Manager
Frank Uffner stepped out for cigar. Her
father had gone to the Theatorium below
and the interpreter was circulating among
the crowd in the hall selling photographs.
She was alone. When Uffner returned,
ten minutes later, he noticed his charge
was missing, but felt no uneasiness until
he looked out into the hall and saw she
was not there. He then noticed that the
outside door leading to the fre-escape
was open.
Hurriedly throwing it open and looking
below he saw two mon just leaving the
foot of the stairway. Divining they had
stolen the Mexican mite, he rushed down
and along the alley after them. Before
they had gone more than half dozen rods
the pair of daring abductors dropped a
Basket, in which Uffner found the fright
ened little Zarate. Two strangers, one a
black whiskered man of thirty-fiye or for
ty years of age, with a gypsy cOuntenance,
and younger, smooth faced, sickly look
ing man, who were seen in the Theato-
rum on Monday and Tuesday, are sus-
pected.
Zarate commands a salary of $500 per
week, and it is supposed the object of her
abduction was to secure a heavy ransom
for her speedy return. This is the third
attempt of the kind to abduct Zarate. An
attempt was made to keep the matter
quiet, but the facts leaked out to-day.

ELLIS STEALS A MARCH.


In the Forty-seyenth Congress, says a
Washington special, bills went to the Ju-
dietary Committee and the interests of
the railroad companies were we'll taken
care of. In order to give the people some
chance, the bills were, at the opening of
this session, sent to the Public Lands
Committee, but Mr.. Ellis, of Louisiana,
who wants to prevent the forfeiture of the
backbone grant in his State, stole a
march ON the Public Lands Committee.
Some day S ago he introduced a resolution
in the House referring some of the land
grant forteitures recommended by
the Committee ON Public Lands
to the judiciary Committee for their
decision upon the law points in the case,
and it passed without opposition. Such
an action was very unusual, and there is
a very bitter feeling in the Public Lands
Committee over the matter, though they
say that the House passed the resolution
without noticing what it was. The Ju-
dietary Committee now have the matter
luton, and Mr.. Ellis and number of
railroad attorneys representing the
Backbone" New Orleans interests ar
gued against forfeiture. Mr.. Lewis. of
the Public Lands Committee, argued the
law points in defense of the action of his
committee. 1t is looked upon as an un-
| precedented thing that one committee of
the House should sit in judgment on the
actions of another, and all the feeling is
directed against Mr.. Ellis.

JIM KEENE.
Facts About His Early Life from One
Who was His Associate.

Facts About His Early Life from One
who was His Associate.
w. G. Budd, who is now the manager
of Schwartz Il Dupee's stock department,
says Chicago special to the st. Louis
Republican, was for many years associated
with Keene ON the San Francisco board
He describes him as a rather cold man,
not given to much sociability, but one
who is not inclined to forget kindness.
Budd gives some interesting points in
Keene's California career: He was a
printers apprentice in early youth, and
about the first money he earned for him.
self was as a school teacher in Shasta
county, Cal, and as editor of the Shasta
County Courier at a salary of $15 a week.
He went to San Francisco in 1865 and
clerked a while, and also took a hand at
speculation in a picayune way.
Finally he came out as a curbstone op-
orator, and, about 1870, attracted by his
sharp eye and snappy way of doing busi-
ness, some of the regular brokers on the
San Francisco Mining Exchange gave
him occasional business in trading in
fractional ''feet," which was the unit of
mining speculation in those days. Later
on he made big hit on Crown Point. He
had found broker who got him a seat ON
lllc uOtti ua anu iS HEHb pttI COUh, q lullAllS :
expert, to Virginia City to investigate the
Crown Point mine. Cook reported favor
ably, and Keene began buying the stock
at about 81 a share. Cook received for his
services $100 and half interest in 1000
shares. The purchase was made at a
happy moment, for Senator Jones, who
was then the Superintendent, had just
struck the great Crown Point bonanza,
and in a few months Crown Point was
| selling at 1000 a share. On that deal
alone he made over $1,000 600.
From that time on he was a power in
| the financial world. The Big Bonanza
excitement OF 1915 added another $2,000,-
900 to his pile, but no more. He is often
| credited with bringing $7,000,000 to the
wall. That is a mistake. When he left
| California he had about $3,000,000 in cash
and some real estate which he afterwards
| sold at a big profit.

THE LUMBER MARKET.
The Situation in the Northwest-Price
Firm and Strong.

Il
Firm and Strong.
The subject that has aroused the most
interest in lumber circles during the last
week, says a Minneapolis, Minn., special
Of the 1st inst. to the Chicago Tribune,
has been the drives. During the first few
days the situation was gloomy, and it was
predicted that not one-half of the logs
would find their way to the mills. In
view of the condition of the drives and
other bullish features, some dealers ad-
vanced prices. Last Friday there
part of the State, and since then
a considerable amount of water
has fallen-sO much, in fact, that the
drives, with the exception of the Upper
Mississippi, never looked better at this
time of year. At Brainerd there has been
a rise of twenty inches in the Mississippi,
and below the mouth of Crow river the
rise has been nearly three feet. The rise
is not due wholly to the heavy rains, but
to the fact that the dams have been OPEN
ed. The drives on the Crow, Platte, Pine
and Rum rivers are in excellent shape, all
the old logs on the latter river having
been already turned out. The Upper Mis-
sissippi has had only a light rainfall, and
little driving has been done. Rain is ex-
pected, and it is thought that some driv-
ing can be now done on Swan and Willow
creeks.
The demand for lumber continues steady
and active. Dealers are complaining of
the broken stocks, and say it is impossi-
Bile to. fill large order without buying
from one another. During the early part
of last week, in view of the broken stocks,
sharp demand, and altogether discourage
ing outlook for the drives, some of the
firms decided to issue a new catalogue adj
yancing prices 81 per thousand for com
mon, which covers about 70 per cent. of all
lumber. In regard to the advance there
is wide difference of opinion. Prices are
now very firm and strong, and if they
hold to the price-list all season they will
do what they have not done before. The
action OF making the advance is purely
an individual one. as there has been no
meeting of the Lumbermen's Association
for the purpose.
