Democratic Caucus.

The Democratic members met at 1:3O p. m in the Supreme court room. This caucus was called to order by Mir. Troup, of New Haven. chairman of the caucus committee on the part of the House.
 Colonel Joslyn, of Hartford, was nomina- ted for chairman and MT. Pigott, of New Ha- ven, for clerk. s.
 Tt wis voted to take an informal ballot for United States Senator.
 The chairman appointed Messrs. Morgan
 of Bridgeport and Allen, of Putnam, for tellers.
 Judge Slade, of Bridgeport, took the floor, and after referring to ''the frightening pros poets of the Democratic party" proceeded to eulogize the many virtues of Hon William H. Barnum, who had, said the speaker, done as much as any other man to restore the
 Democratic party to power and elect Grover Cleveland to the presidency. He said that Mir. Barnurn was known not only in this State but throughout the United States, and any honors that the Democratic party of this State could confer upon him would be none | too great for the services he had performed. Mir Comstock of Montville, after com 1nending 81l that had been said by Judge l Slade regarding Mir. Barnum, proceeded with l an elaborate speech in favor of the nomlna- | tion of ex-Governor Waller. He said that | Mr. Waller had performed his duties well l ana saved the Wdll1ng IortuueS ol Lne Denoo- l racy in this State. In behalf of the young l Democracy he placed in nomination Hon.
 Thomas M. Waller. of New London. | Colonel Joslyn called MT. Miles, of Mil
 ford, to the chair, and taking the floor urged i the claims of Hon. w. w. Eaton. He said
 that if Mr. Barnum was nominated it would l be hailed as a triumph oyer Mr. Waller, and | if MT. Waller was nominated it would be
 hailed triumph over MT. Barnum. He
 therefore urged the nomination of MT.
 Eaton, who had no ambition but that of
 serving his country we'll and his party well
 in any position that they chose to place him
 He said this compliment was one that MT
 Eaton richly deserved He would therefore
 nominate Hon. William Eaton, "the noblest Roman of them all"
 After further complimentary remarks by i Senator Morgan for MT. Barnum, and MT
 Pigott for MT. Waller, the informal ballot | was ordered It resulted as follows:

nlst of AuthOrlty-oapltal News.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Sept. s.-About the
Treasury Department the principal topic
Of conversation Is the trouble likely tc
arile from silver coinage complications
The silver men are disposed to find fault
with Treasurer Jordan because he ordered
the cancellation Of silver certificates at the
sub.treasury in New York On Saturday
last; while on the other hand, the oppo.
nents OF the standard dollar question Mr..
Jordan's right to withdraw one and two.
dollar notes from circulation.
The fact that the notes are at pre-
MUM Is something that had not been con
templated, and is without parallel in the
financial history Of the country. Many
who favor a repeal Of the silver coinage
law are pleased that the notes have been
withdrawn, for while the business men oi
the country will be somewhat annoyed in
being forced to handle the obnoxious
coins, By this way will the people come TO
a realization OF the folly OF the Law.
1t Is fair to say that the people, having
comparatively little experience with the
coins, do not fully comprehend the dis
parity in value between them and the
gold dollars, and until they do the follow.
era Of Bland do not fear that their MAORI
ty in Congress will be jeopardized. 1t Is
believed therefore, that the action OF
Treasurer Jordan on the silver question
during the last few weeks will not be
without an influence upon Congress at
the coming session, and that some reme-
dial legislation will follow.

work Of his cHlce that has accumulated

his residence he sent for his private sec.
retary, dictated answers TO his mail until

hour again. This programme he repeated
to-day. He Is determined to catch up
with the work before the throng OF Office
seeker all hear OF his return and trespass
upon his time. The Secretary, early in
his life, learned how TO work, and his past
experience now stands him in hand in the
direction OF affairs in the largest depart
ment OF the Government. 1t was the late
Secretary Folger's attempt to do this that
broke down his health, and ultimately
brought him TO the grave. He insisted
upon doing much which his predecessor
intrusted 10 subordinates, and tho over
work hastened his death.

WASHINGTON, IND, Sept. s.-There are
some new developments in the Davies
county trustee frauds. Grimsley, Brown
and Clark, the absconding trustees, have
been seen and interviewed in Hamilton,
Ontario. Mr.. ]. @. Billheimer, one Of the
attorneys of Washington, went to Canada
shortly after they disappeared, and came
across them in Hamilton. Mr.. Billheimer,
who, has just returned, SAYS: "When l
arrived in Hamilton, Ont, found three
Of the egloomiest trustees ever saw in my
life. They looked sad and forsaken, but
offered no apologies or explanations con-
carning their schemes. They blamed q
Chicago party for good part Of the mis-
chief. / don't believe the three trustees
have much left, but | think the Chicago
man beat them out oil about all they rais-
ed on the fraudulent warrants, because
the paper was made out 10 his orders, and
he made no promise 10 hand over the
money TO them as he disposed Of the
paper. II is fact, however, that neither
OF the three could approximate how much
paper they had Issued. The total amount
cannot be- estimated at less than $3.50, 900
for the three townships"
This, and the fact that Posey county has
discovered an apparently illegal issue Of
IS, 900 OF certificates, by former Trustee,
has caused CONSERVATION among the peo-
plesof this section, and may result in an
extra session Of the Legislature for the
purpose Of amending the law, which at
present, II Is said allow the township tIus.

money, for which value received does not

Three Persous Poisoned by Young Lady
Crossed In Love,

URBANA, I'LL, Sept. S.-There is much
excitement at st. Joseph, this county,
over three mysterious deaths that have
occurred within short time in one fam
lily. Mr.. and Mrs. Hiram Peabody were
prominent and honored residents. Miss
Belle Hasty, daughter OF Robert Hasty,
and young woman Of fine character and
pleasant manners, lived with the Peabody
family, and was said 10 be engaged TO
young Silas Peabody. Yonng Peabody's
parents, particularly his mother, were op-
posed TO this marriage, owing to Miss
Hasty's poor health. On August 2 Mrs.
Peabody died very suddenly, OF what ap-
peared to be neuralgia Of the stomach.
On August IL Mr.. Peabody died with the
same symptoms. On September ] Miss
Hasty and young Siins Peabody were
taken with the game symptoms and the
young lady died, while the young man
had recovered.
Since THAT tins suspicion has been
awakened by the alleged discovery OF
package OF rat poison pinned - IN under
garment, which Miss Hasty had laid OF
Just before death. It is thought that-the
latter had poisoned Mr.. and Mrs. Peabody
with the hopes OF marrying the son, and
then concluded to kill him and herself.
On Sunday Clergyman refused To preach
her funeral sermon until the matter was
cleared up. An investigation will be
made.
