WAsHINGToS, Jan. 25.-According to the
Critic TO-DAY a good deal OF concern prevails
among IL ana Congressmen over the re-
ports they are receiving from that State OF
proposed changes IN Congressional and Ju-
dicial Districts and Circuits. The Critic
says that quite number of letters have
been received on the subject, out that those
interested know only enough 70 make them
uneasy. Some members express the belief
that if there was to be anything done in
Congressional Districts, but little could be
done except in the district occupied by Mr..
Lamb; that might possibly be arranged
so as to give the Democratic candidates a
reasonably clear road to success hereafter. An
impression prevails that the most direct
benefit which will inure to party gerry
Wandering will be the securing OF a num-
ber of judges. The Critics article, which is
based upon an interview with Indisnsns,
closes with these paragraphs:
"A Democratic member who was at
Indianapolis about the time the Legislature
was organized, says it is body composed of
good and sensible men, and that the party
has much more to hope for from 1t than it
got from the last Legislature Whatever is
done in the way of reGistricting the State

order.
Another statesmsn, who has Just re-
turned from the capital Of indiana. says
there is good deal of secret wsrk being
done for certain sspirants in the State under
Mr.. Cleve'ands administration. and thinks
few prominent politicians will be fixed up
for positions before the Legislature ad-
journs.

ture appear not to hesitate to use their of.

their friends. They are what may be termed
political thoroughbreds. He says that papers

GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.
Anxiety tn Hear From General Stewart and
His Army Overshadows Even the
Explosions.

LONDON, Jan. 25.-The great anxiety in
regard to the safety of General Stewart and
his army, from whom no definite news has
been received since the 18th inst, the day
of the battle al Abu Klea Wells, overshad-
ows even the interest in the explosions.
The officials OF the war Office have been
gathered in the office all day,
awaiting the arrival of dispatches from
the Soudan, but none were received.
Plenty OF rumors were in circulation, how
ever to the effect that Stewards entire force
had been killed. Numerous officers of the
Government and others called at the War
Office during the day to learn if there was
any news.

1t is somewhat singular that not remon'
STRANGE has been received against the pas
sage Of the bill. The South, who furnished
a very large proportion of the soldiers
who fought Mexico, is being stirred up
on the subject, and is showing
keen interest in the bill by peti-
tioning for its adoption. More than half the
benefits of the bill would accrue to men in
the South, and many millions of dollars
would be paid to those who subsequently
fought under the stars and bars, and vet the
Southern members are largely opposed to
the bill
Republicans are accusing Mr.. Townshend,
of Illinois, who has charge of the bill in the
House, with being antagonistic to it, al
though he affects great friendship to it.
He lie charged with attempting to
get the bill up for consideration
when he knows he can not succeed, and al
lowing it to rest quietly, when it should be
taken up. The entsgonism of Mr.. Randall
to the bill is enough to kill it under the
present condition of affairs.

rThe Democratic primary contest in this
county is now practically settled and the conven-
ton will assemble in Towsontown next Monday
to carry out the wishes of the Democracy as ex-
pressed a. the ballot-box. 1t would not take much
of philosopher to fortel who will be the nominee
for Sheriff, and two of the County Commissioners
could be named with almost equal certainty, but
who the nominee for Treasurer will be is yet ex-
tremely problematical. If Mr.. Schone carries
the 18th district he may be the man. but there are
those who assert with much positiyeness that he
is already beaten. But the principal interest-so
far as the county ticket is concerned-centres
around the Clerkship nomination. Our opinion is
that none of the candidates now prominently
named will be successful. We believe that
clark horse" will come to the front and distance
theield, and for fear we might do the "dark horse
an injustice we will not mention his name. Of
course this is only speculation on our part and as
this is right good time for doing little guess
work, we throw this out for what it is worth. One
other thing is settled beyond peradventure-Sen
ator Germans friends will name the nominees for
the Legislature but who they will be no one would
undertake to fortell just now.

dry persons in sundry sums of money and said
Smyser & Michal Schall together, were indebted

insufficient to pay his debts, and that a sale of
said real estate is absolutely necessary; that he

held at Hooper's, on the York road, Monday night,
the object, as stated, being to secure more repre-
sentation in the county government. resoIu-
ton to this effect was passed. also one endorsing
Mr.. John W. shanklin for Clerk of the Circuit
Court and instructing the district delegation to
use every effort to secure his nomination. A de-
mand was made that the Belt be given represen-

in the Legislature. Several candidates for the
Legislature were present and made speeches.
Some dissatisfaction was expressed at the manner
ofputting up the delegates, but this amounted to
very little. .-..-..-.-- -.-------------

@-The great Democratic roundup takes
place in Baltimore county, Friday and Saturday
of this week. In few of the districts there will
be no contest, but in a majority of them there will
be fights of the most fervid character. 1t seems
to be pretty well settled that the would-be Demo-
cratic Boss, who has held sway in the Court
House for twenty odd years, will get his final
quetus in this contest, and if the primaries result
in nothing else except this glorious contamination,
the people will have cause to be thankful that at
least that much is accomplished The people
have been patient and long suffering but the day
of deliverance is near at hand and they will 60
forth with renewed hopes for the future, feeling
that it was good to have downed an extremely
obnoxious political Boss. A man who "fnds him
self with twenty thousand dollars worth of prop
erty," all of which he made out of the county
and how much more the Lord only knows-should
be relegated to the rear after having had his
in the crib for twenty years, SO that some good
man, who don't "ind" himself with so much
money, may have chance.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY CONTEST.

One of the hottest primary contests that has
ever taken place among the Baltimore county
Democrats will be fought out on Friday and Sat
urday of this week, and much interest is being
manifested therein by people of all shades of poll
tics Of course it is not possible to forecast with
much certainty what the result will be, but to
person who calmly surveys the field the following
Speculation" as to all the districts will not be
found far out of the way.
First District-Mr. Edward W. Stiefel for Clerk
will carry the district although he will have pref
ty stout opposition.
Second District-Here the contest is very sharp
between DR.. Hebb for Treasurer, and VIM. M
Isaac for Clerk, with the chances in favor of the
Third District-N Nathaniel Watts for Sheriff will
get this district without opposition.
Fourth District-Here there is the liveliest sort
of tussle between the friends of County Commits
sioner Crout and Chas. J. Beckley for Sheriff
with the result in much doubt.
Fifth District-Silas v. Miller for Clerk has
some opposition but will get the delegation.
.Sirth District-Dr. J. S. Baldwin for House oil
Delegates is making brisk fight here but the
chances are he will be Cleft" as itlooks as though
some of the cold stages" working little smart
business on him.
Seventh District John Sterling for Clerk and
J. Scott Price for Sheriff have locked horns here
and both sides are claiming. We are not well
enough informed to even make a guess on this
district, but we believe Price has the call.
Eighth District-This is one of the big battle
grounds, the fight being between L. NJ. Bacon for
Clerk and VIM. II. Wight for Commissioner, and
the latter will win.
Ninth Distict-John W. Shanklin for Clerk
has a walk-over here, there being no opposition
to him.
Tenth District-Here the fight waxeth very
warm between Edward S. Peerce for Commits
sioner, with J. H. Cockey for House of Delegates,
and II. C. Hutchins for Clerk and John Smith for
Commissioner. The indications point to the sue
cess of the two first named.
EleUenth District-Chas. H. Quinln for Clerk
and B. W. Ady for Sheriff will get the delegation,
and there is a sort of go-as-you-please race for
House of Delegates between five or six aspirants,
with chances in favor of Mr.. J. J. Lindsay.
Ticelfh District-A very vigorous contest is
going on here. 7. B. Catch for Clerk and Harry
Vonderhorst for House of Delegates are arrayed
against j. Hartman Schone for Treasurer and
Walter Townsend for House of Delegates. Catch
and Wonderhorst have the call just now and they
doubtless will pull through.
Thirteenth District-Here there is no opposition
to County Commissioner Rittenhouse, who will
get the delegation without any trouble.
The County Convention meets next Monday and
if the delegates as outlined above get in, it will
no doubt be very interesting and perhaps trou-
blesome body to manage.

n-Tba Democrats of Anna Arundel co,

@>The Democrats of Anne Arundel county

regular monkey and parrot time. One faction
was led by County Treasurer Bannon and the
other by DR.. George Wells, of Annapolis. The
contest was very spirited in all the districts and
the Walls faction was successful. In the
Sth district there was a great deal of fight

man named Dove having been shot in the face
by one of the Nutwells.
