Washington special to the Baltimore San,
from New York, which is considered of a
reliable character by some of the best

tirely different phase on the political situ-
alton. According to the statement which
is made. the friends of Cleveland did not

didacy of Flower would be so absurd and
ridiculous as to invite overwhelming de-
feat. The impression is strong that John
Kelly does not want any New York man,
but will throw all his influence in favor
of some one or the other of the Western
candidates. He has ever so much more
chance to pursue the even tenor Of his
way if an outside candidate is selected.

believed to be matter of complete fndif-
ference to him who is President. No
matter who is nominated by the Demo-
Gratis, Kelly will play into the hands of
the Republicans if he can make a better
bargain with it.
Prominent Democratic Senators to-day
said the situation may assume such =
shape as to impel the convention to lay
the nomination at the feet of Mr.. Tilden.
Influential Democrats from various parts
of the country, who were here in con-
sultation, agreed with this view, and ex-
pressed the opinion that circumstances
might occur under which Mr.. Tilden
would yield to the pressure and feel con-
to accept the nomination.

COLEGROVEs TESTIMONY.
Ker Characterizes It as False, and VII
Make a Reply.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Counsellor w.
W. Ker says that contractor ColegroYe's
statement to the Springer committee that
Ker offered to prevent Colegrove's indict-
ment is untrue. The fact is, he says, and
will say under oath before the Springer
committee, while Colegrove's name was
before the grand jury Judge Key, well
known Georgetown lawyer, came to him
to ask what could be done for ColegrOYe,
who was his client. Ker suggested that
Colegrove turn States evidence. Key
asked whether his name would then be
withdrawn from the grand jury. Ker
would not promise. Key returned to Cole
grove, and Ker told Bliss and Mer-
rick about it. Afterwards Key intimated
that Colegrove was willing to turn
States evidence, but about that time the
grand jury ignored the indictment against
Colegrove, and there the matter ended.
Nothing was said at any time about Pc
cuniary compensation to Ker. Ker thinks
that COlegrove's story assumes that both
Ker and Key were fools. Since his story,
if true, destroys the professional reputa-
tion of both of them, he does not think
Key viii confirm ColegrOve's story, and
awaits Keys examination before making
his reply before the committee.

IN THE BEAR PITS.
The Spelling Book Fable Put to Ac-


The Spelling Book Fable Put to Ac-
count.
In Paris recently a workman fell over
the parapet Of one Of the bear pits at the
Jardin des Plantes and very nearly be-
came prey to two huge bears awaiting
their afternoon repast. The man lay for
few minutes insensible, with a bad
wound on his head, from which there was
copious flow Of blood. The spectators
for a short time kept the bears employed,
by throwing them endless pieces of bread,
but they made so much noise in carrying
out their well-meant stratagem that
the animals were frightened away
from this frugal entertainment, and the
male. wandering about in search of re-
tuge, approached the more palatable food
and licked up the bloed flowing from the
PROSTATE sufferers wound. Amid in
tense excitement the keepers arrived and
the man. recovered his senses. Seeing his
danger, however, he lay still. as if dead,
while the keepers prepared a rope and
distrac1Nh the bear from its prey by
striking It with long poles. At length
the prisoner elutched the rope and was
speedily hauled aloft to the disappoint-
ment Of the bear, who displayed much
irritation at the withdrawal of SO dainty
and ample a meal. The rescued indi-
vidual, who was badly hurt by his fall,
was conveyed to the hospital.

HOLLANDS DEAD PRINCE.
HIS RECOVERY EXPECTED
WHEN THE END CAME.


Physicians Were Preparing to Send Him
to South France-Preparation Max
Ing for a Bitter Fight for the Throne
The Duke of Nassau Bound to Have
Something.
THE HAGUE, June 22.-The Prince OF
Orange passed a calm night and peaceful
morning. Before the collapse on the af-
ternoOn of Saturday he seemed so well
that the doctors talked of sending him to
the south of France. At II O'Clock, how
ever, he suddenly exhibited symptoms Of
extreme weakness and tainted. His res
piratiOn became greatly enfeebled. Sub
sequently a slight recovery was notice
able, and then the lungs seemed paralyzed.
From this time till his death the Prince
remained unconscious. The King has re-
turned from Carlsbad, and has held con-
ference with his Cabinet. The President
of the Council has conVOked the General
State Council.
THE CABINETS ACTION.
The Cabinet has decided to resort to the
provisions of the law of November 3, 1913,
and will convene the chambers forming
the States General in nlenary congress
with seventy-eighJ Senators, instead of
thirty-nine, and one hundred and seventy
two Deputies, instead of eighty-siX. This
Congress will proclaim Princess Will
helmine successor under the Council to
the Regency, with Queen Emma as Regent
and the President OF the Council as Chan
cellor. The Cabinet has determined to
refuse to Spain tutelage with any Ger
man branch Of the royal family.
BIsNIARCK's wATCHFULNEss.
BERLIN, June 22.-Prince Bismarck,
during the illness of the Prince of Orange,
caused the German representatives at the
various European courts to declare that
any attempt to make a successor to the
Regency in Holland a European question
would find instant opposition from Ger
many. This declaration is taken to mean
that Germany alone has right to NEEDLE
in the affairs of Holland. The King of
Holland is i'll and his death near. On his
decease the Duke of Nassau, falling to
obtain the throne of Holland, will claim
the Grand Duchy Of Luxembourg.

He Does Not Regard the Result at Sara
toga Cleveland Victory.
Ex-senator Mcdonald, of Indiana, left
Chicago to-day, says Chicago special Of
the 20th, for Springfield, Ill. When asked
what he thought Of the Saratoga Conven-
ton, he replied: Il interpret the result
as far from victory for Mr.. Cleveland.
Had he been regularly and unani-
mously indorsed, no question would
have been raised, and he would
very likely have been the Democratic
nominee. The failure Of the convention
to instruct for him, however. appears TO
be sufficient ground for the apprehension
that the nomination is in the field for the
man who has the greatest strength, not
only in New York, but outside. Cleye-
land, of course, is one of these men, Be
fore leaving here, Mcdonald declared
himself squarely in the Presidential race.
He goes to Springfield to secure the sup

Tilden-A Few Scattering.
sEDALIA, Mo-, June 22.-The Democrat,
of this city, to-day published letters from
II leading Democratic editors of Missouri,
called for by a request for their prefer
ences for President. The opinions thus
expressed probably represent the senti-
men of the Democrats of this
State better than anything yet
published. Nearly three-fourths of the
writers favor the nomination of Cleveland,
ten want Bayard, while the others are
scattering in their choice. All but two or
three believe that Tilden's letter is POSI-
tive declination, and that he is out OF the
race. One editor, however, declares
himself for Tilden forever, dead or alive.
