The Oregon senatorship.

PORTLAND, Ore, February 22.-The
failure of the Legislature to elect Sena-
tor continues the all-absorbing topic OF
conversation to-day, and the question
as to whether the Governorcan appoint
is being discussed in all its phases. Sec
ton Is, article of the constitution of
Oregon reads, "When during recess
of the Legislative Assembly a vacancy
should happen in any office. the ap-
pointment of which is vested in the
Legislative Assembly, or when at any
time vacancy shall have occurred in
any 9th T State Office or in the Office OF
judge of any court. the Governor shall
fill such vacancy by appointment, which
shall expire when successor shall have
been elected and qualified" Under this
Republicans claim that Senator may
be appointed. 1t is commended, on the
other hand by the Democrats, that the
expiration of the regular time OF the
Legislative Assembly is not such va
cancy as the Governor is authorized to
fill by appointment, and that the Legis-
lature having failed to elect, the
State must suffer the consequences
of such neglect and be deprived of a
suffrage in the Senate. There is scarce
ly doubt that the Governor will ap-
point and the Senate must decide
whether such appolntee shall take his
seat.

The NihiIists.

ST. PETERSBURG, February 22.-The
Police at Derpart, in the southern Rus
sian province of Livonia, recently made
an important seizure of nihilist docu-
ments. They included several thou
sand copies of terrorist manifesto
which had been printed on a secret
press and put up in envelopes to be sent
to branch organizations and various
local and imperial officials. There were
several letters which proved the COM
plicity of a student named Pereleoff,
who had formerly been charged with
connection with the nihilist's plot, but
had been amnestied by the government
A party of soldiers was sent to arrest
Pereleoff. They found him at his lodg-
ings, but as soon as they entered he
snatehed up pistol and shot himself
through the heart. In his rooms were
found poison, weapons, money and a
quantity of dynamite Many other ar
rests have also been made.

The Dexi,ish DxnamIters.

CHICAGO, February 22.-Captain Mack,
an inventor, says in an interview: Cum
bingham, now In prison in London for
the attempt to blow up the tower, was in
, Chicago twoyears ago with two othermen
named Dalton and Brennan, and that
they had two internal machines, one
to blow up ship after it got into rough
seas, and was rolling, by the swinging
! Of an iron ball; the other for private as
sassination, in the shape Of bottle or de-
| canter, which would explode on being
set down hastily. Mack says when
Cunningham was here, he received a
telegram from 0'Donovan Rosa, and
the three at once lett for
New York. Mack asserts that Chi
cago is the head centre for Fenianism
three pronounced dynamite societies
here backed by plenty OF money from
rich Irishmen, who are not suspected of
any such tendencies; that there are
three Chicago men now abroad on
dynamite missions. He believes dYn-
amiters are now Matching most desper-
ate schemes and intimates that their
next move may be in Canada or on
/ Canadian vessels in this port.
The dN Mantle section of the Socialists
held a III e,ing this afternoon in a hall
very near the heart OF the fashionable
portion of the nth division of this city.
A number of .ghly in, end AIRY speeches
in English anu l.s5,lan were delivered
by A. 4. Parsons, his wife, George
Metzinger, August Fenling and others.
Mrs. Parsons made an unusually fiery
speech. She began by berating her
hearers as towards and unworthy of
the name of manhood, because they al
lowed the aggression OF capital to con-
tinue, allowed their daughters to barter
their virtue for bread. If they were men,
as they claimed to be, she said,
they would blow up every house
on the adjoining avenue before
before they would submit to it, would
demolish police stations, court houses
and jails and fling dynamite in the faces
of the army and navy If they were
afraid to do this, however, they need
not look for a captain, for she would fill
her apron with dynamite and lead them
along the avenues of the city where the
rich reside, destroying as they went.
Her husband advised his hearers to
study chemistry and take lessons from
those expert in the manufacture of
deadly explosives.
BALTIMORE, February 22.-HSrr Most
spoke in Turn Hall, tonight to full
house. In the course of his remarks he
eulogized Reinsdorf, who attempted the
life of the Emperor of Germany, and
justified murder and dynamite.
August Schweibler, Socialist speaker,
protested against the sentiments of
Most, whoR he called a coward A
scene of confusion ensued, and the au-
dience, composed of Anarchists and
Socialists, seemed prepared for a row,
but quiet was restored and Most and
Schweibler taken in charge by friends.
Most told reporter that Schweibler
was sent from New York to create dis
turbance at the meeting. SchWeibler
denies the accusation.

LoSDoN, February 23.-One of the
most singular incidents ever connected
with the execution or attempted execu-
ton of murderer happened to-day at
Exeter on the occasion of carrying out
the death sentence passed upon John
Lee, recently condemned to be hanged
for the murder of Miss Emma A. w.
Keyse, at Babbacombe, near Torquay,
November 18th last. Three attempts
we're made to execute Lee, but each al
tempt was futile, the drop failing 70
work successfully The execution was
consequently postponed.
The details of the futile attempt to
hang Lee make the case the most horri-
BILE that ever diSgraced the gibbet in
England. At first Lee was perfectly
firm and wenttO the scaffold undaunted.
When the first attempt to hang him
failed the prisoners spirits remained
Jnbroken. He was led from under the
gallows and walked back to his cell with
firm step. When first placed upon the
trap he resigned himself completely but
firmly into the hands of his execution
ers. He stood motionless during the
preliminary proceedings and when the
moose was placed and the spring was
about 10 be touched he made an ap-
parent effort to adjust his body
to the expected drop so death
might be as quick as pos
sible. When the murderer was made
to realize that the gibbet had not done
its work and he was not yet hanged, he
appeared to start as ii from night
mare, but quickly recovered himself.
The machine was then carefully over
hauled and the woodwork wet and so
swollen that the trap refused to work.
After being oiled and tried until it was
thought all right, the prisoner was
again brought forth. The same scene as
before was then enacted. Once again
was the wretched man led away, and
the trap second time examined and
oiled and for the second time pro-
nOunced all right, and for the third
time he took his stand upon
the trap and the third time
did the-gibbet refuse to do its work.
The strain and suspense now overtaxed
Lee. He sank down in swoon and
had to be carried away from the place.
No words can give an adequate idea of
the painfulness of the scene. A kind |
Of 0verpOwering dismay like that of |
seemed to have got control |
Of the sheriff-s officers. The gallows I
was deserted, and none made any more
attempts to pat it in working order. |
The man that was to have been hanged |
was limp, motionless, and in most t
