try, and he was in favor of voting for an
appropriation of as much money as was
necessary to keepthe navy yards in opera
tiOn.
Mr.. Ellis, of Louisiana, said that he be-
lieYed that an appropriation for a new
navy should be made at this session of
Congress. thereby preventing the delay
whlcn would be caused by referring the
subject to the Naval Committee Of the
next Congress.
Mr. King, of Louisiana, offered a resOlu-
ton providing that the Democratic men,
bers of the House of Representatives
should follow the majority of the Com
mittee on Appropriations. The resOlu-
ton was lost and the caucus adjourned.
THE RESULTS OF THE CAUCUS.
The Democrats of the House really
reached no conclusion at all at their eau
Gus TINS afternoon, except that the apprO-
prlati0n bills should be passed as quickly
as possible, and that it was inexDedient
to make large appropriations for the re-
Mobilization of the navy in the naval bill
for the EeXt fiscal year. Mr.. Randall
thought that il would be we'll to await
the recommendations of President Cleve-
land and President Cleveland's Secretary
OF the Navy before making appropriations
for new navy. No agreement was
reached about the public building bills or
INC VldhI IetlIenehI Dill. Inc sentiment
OF the majority of the Demo-
Gratis of the House is believed
to be favorable to the latest Senate Grant
retirement bill. The theory of some Re-
publican Congressman is that even if the
House Democrats should take Gen. Slo-
GUMS advice and pass the Grant bill
passed by the Senate last session, that the
President would neither sign nor veto it,
simply permitting it to become law by the
expiration of the constitutional ten days
limitation. There is a very general de-
sire in the House that something NAV be
done for Gen. Grant by Congress this
session.

PROMOTIONS ON THE BENCH.
William Richardson Succeeds Chief Jus
tice Drake and John Davis Made
Judge.

William Richardson Succeeds Chief Jus
Judge.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Old Chief JUS
tice Drake, of the Court of Claims, for
merly a Senator from Missouri, has re-
tired from the Court of Claims on account
of ill health. The President to-day nomi-
mated ex-Secretary William Richardson,
now a member of the Court of Claims,
to be its Chief Justice in Justice
brakes place. He also nomi-
mated John Davis, now First Assist
ant Secretary of State, to be Judge
Richardson's successor. 1t is expected
that these nominations will be promptly
confirmed. Mr.. Davis is especially and
deservedly popular in the Senate. Though
a comparatively young man Mr.. Davis is
an excellent lawyer, and will make a
good Judge. He has been a model As
sistant Secretary of State. 1t is now
stated that ID. W. Fessenden, Clerk of the
Court OF Alabama Claims, will shortly be
nominated to fill the vacancy on that
bench, for which John Davis has been
mentioned.
Chief Justice Drake is nearly IA years
of age and will retire from the Bench
with the full salary of $4,000 appertain-
ing to the office. In explanation of his ac-
tiOn he says that he thought il best to re-
tire before his mental powers began to
decay and advancing years rendered him
unfit for the arduOus duties of the office
of Chief Justice of the Court of Claims.
Justice Drake was a Senator of the Uni
ted States from Missouri from 1867 to
1871, when he was appointed Chief JUS
tice Ofthe Court Of Claims, and has served
continuously since that date. He has
been eligible for retirement since 1881, as
the law prescribes that a United States
Judge may retire when he shall have
reached the age of 70 years, and should
have served continuously for ten years.

Germany Accepts the French PROPOSE
tiOns in Preference to EngIand's.
LONDON, Jan IA Berlin correspon-
dent says that Germany has rejected the
proposals regarding the Egyptian finan-
sces, which were recently submitted TO
the powers by England, and has accepted
the counter proposals submitted by
France. These latter embody the finan-
cial scheme which England distinctly
repeated at the Egyptian conference in
London last spring.
The British Foreign Office to-day made
public the texts of both the English and
French proposals for the settlement Of the
Egyptian financial question. A COMPARE
son of the proposals shows that they. we're
correctly anticipated by the Paris I lgs,
which on Jan. y published what the s0i-
tor averred were the official texts. With

proposals, but those of England cont1'n

PERJURY CONFESSED.
Witness SchOtz in the Belt-Lawes Case
Tells of Conspiracy.


Tells of Conspiracy,
LONDON, Jan. ia sensation was
caused in London to-day by the publica-
tion of the confession by Mr.. Schotz. one
of the witnesses against Mr.. Lawes. the
culprIt, in the libel suit brought against
him by Sculptor Belt last winter. The
case ended in the Court of Appeal on
March II, 1884, in which a verdict Of tho
lower court awarding the plaintiff .OO0
was affirmed. 1t will no ra-
membered that Mr.. Belt expected that
Mr.. LaWes' father, who is rich and had
always patroniZed his son in the profess
sion, would save him from arrest by paw
ing Whatever damages were awarded,
but Mr.. LaWes and his father regarded
the verdict as grossly unjust, and the elder
LaWes refused to recognize it, while the
son, to escape, had himself judicially de-
clared bankrupt. Mr.. Schotz now con-
fesses that all his testimony, which was
among the most material for the plaintiff,
was perJured, and the result of conspIra-
cy by him and other witnesses for the pur-
pose of securing a share in the heavy
damages assured by the lawyers. So far
nothing has transpired to directly impli-
cate Mr.. Belt with conspiracy.
SchOtz' confession was read to the court
during the examination into Mr.. Lawe's
alleged bankruptcy. In it Schotz claims
TO be the author of Belts sketches and
models, and asserts that he ard another
witness and Belt agreed to divide the
damages awarded by the court. SchOtZ
states that his time-bOOk, which was pro-
duced during the trial, was fabrication.

Pronounced False.

Inc Charges that he was In the Mark ct
Pronounced False.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, Jan. 15.-Ex-
Gov. st. John arrived here this afternoon.
and In response to an inquiry by repre-
sentative of the Associated Press as to
whether he would consent to make a pub
lie statement regarding the Clarkson-
Legate publications regarding his course
during the late campaign, he said: 'sNo;
have thus far declined to make any state
ment beyond mere denial of the accusa-
tlOns; but may prepare a statement and
furnish you with the manuscript before
leave the city. have not yet determined,
however, If l conclude to answer the
charges at all, further than to merely de-
ny the whole affair, l Will not depend
upon the memory of any one, but will
IurnlSh the copy to you myself"
=" Ou do not hesitate then to brand the
entire affair as talse?'
'The charges are false from beginning
to end. Mr.. Legate is now the strongest
witness against my accusers, and l have
had no communication with him or any
one else about the matter. The Associ-
ated Press dispatches of the past few
days should be sufficient proof to any one
that the charges are false. Mr.. Legate
admits that the letter or part
of it is a forgery. All that l
desire to say now is that am innocent of
those charges and l hope that l do not
look like guilty man. If | conclude to
make public statement l will furnish
you with copy over my own signature,
as l said.'
This was all that the ex. Governor cared
to say about the recent publications. In
cidentally ne said that he had ten times
as many offers to lecture as he could ac-

PANAMA, Jan. ia most alarming

Magdalena, and, it seems, is about to
break out in the important State of Goa.
Goa. Here in Panama more trouble may
occur, but there will be little bloodshed.
Heavy fighting has already taken place
in the interior. The object sought can be
better understood abroad by de-
scription of the plans. The Radi-
cal party, as it is called.
has joined faction of the Conservatives.
Thus united, they are endeavoring
to turn out the liberal governments in
the different States, which are the strong
est supporters of the government of
President NuneZ, and then, if successful,
they will unite the States they hold in an
effort to overthrow the general govern
ment. Severe skirmIshes have occurred
in Santander and BOycoa.
REBELS REPORTED VICTORIOUS.
The cable this morning says that bat
tie has taken place at BOyacoa, in which
the Federal forces were defeated. their
COmmander-in-chiefy Gen, Montirfor, and
another General, having been killed in
the combat. The fighting must have been
severe, ,and the rebels in strong force, ,ifthey
proved victorious, since President Nunez
telegraphed as follows, only days ago:
"The remaining rebel forces sought an
asylum in BOyacOa without having fought.
They reached Tulda on the 22d and they
are now surrounded by 5000 men. All
ammunitions had been removed TO Zapa-
quira in advance, owing to the efforts and
energy of Gen. Morgan, who for this rea-
son has been raised to the rank of General.
The revolutionists have asked for an
armistice. Here and in Zabana and Zapa-
quira we have strong reserves" If sue

His Heart in the wrong Place

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Dr. Chavett. who
has been attending George Edwards. ace
Is, Tor consumption, says he has discoy-
cred remarkable malformation in his
patent. In examining the condition of
Edwards lungs he discovered that the
heart-beats were only noticeable on the
right side. They were perfectly natural,
and there were none on the left side. Two
other physicians corrobOrate the state
ment, and say that they think the centre
of the heart is about two inches to the
right of the breast-bOne. 1t was first
thought that it was case of aneurism,
but an examination proved that the heart
was really on the right side. The physi-
clans do not think the malformation has
anything to do with Edwards physical
debility.

NAVAL MATTERS IN CAUCUS.
The Democratic Representatives Express
Their Views on a Much Discussed Ap-
preparation.


preparation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Immediately
after the adjournment this afternoon the
Democratic members of the House of
Representatives held a short caucus. 1t
was announced that its object was to
agree upon plan of work during the re-
mainder of the present session of Con-
gress. No plan, however, was presented.
Mr.. Randall said that he had called the
caucus merely to acquaint the members
with the condition Of the appropriation
measures. He was of the opinion that
there would be no disagreement between
the two houses of Congress, and that
every appropriation bill would be passed
before March 4. He recommended that
nothing should be done which would en-
barrass in. any way the new administra-
tion. Speaking of the naval appropriation
bill for the next fiscal year, he said that
he believed that it would be to the best
interests of the Democratic party not
to appropriate money this year for
the increase of the navy as had been
strongly recommended. He was in favor
of increasing the strength of that branch
of the government, but thought 1T best to
wait till next year, He thought that the
subject ought TO be referred to the Naval
Committee of tle next Congress that that
committee ought to thoroughly examine
the subject, prepare plan for the pro-
posed incEsase and submit 1t TO Congress.
