INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 1.-Ritzinger
Bros bank, established in 1876, and
which has done a large business among
the Germans, did not open its doors
this morning, the proprietors, Frank L..
and Augustus w. Ritzinger, having
made an assignments to Geo. B. Yandes.
While there had been some talk afEec.
ting the standing Of the bank 1t was not
generally discussed. but the umors had
been wide spread enough to affect the
banks customers, causing a.falling of
in its business to such an extent as to
necessiate suspension of business. The
senior partner, when asked what caused
the assignment, teIsely said the bank
had been talked to death.

The report that Mr.. Tuohy, CLERK Of
tho court of Pembina county, and a
Democrat, will run for the legislature
against Jud LaN1ouro next fall in order
that Jud may be FURNISHED for his to-
merity in setting at defiance the dictates
of the odd gang in the last legislative
session" is about the thinnest subterfuge
ever invented by the ''ring." In the
first place, Jud never "defied the die.
tates of the gang" because he has al
ways been an honorary member of that
d~ishonorable body, and has always
worked and is working o in the in.
terest of the gang. In the second place.
Tuohy is a protege Of Fatty Edwards,
and was appointed clerk of tho court of
Pembina county through the influence
of Edwards. Jud and Fatty are boon
companions and fellow poker chums.
The object in circulating the report Of
Tuohy's candidacy thus early is to
choke of other aspirants for legislative
honors in the northern tier district.
When the time comes, Jud and Tuohy
will be found pulling together. Jud
knows that he can't carry his own (Pem.
bina) county; Tuohy has been select.
ed to take care Of that portion of the
district. while the circingle statesman
looks after Cavalier, Towner and Ro-
lette. Cavalier county is now in the
clutches Of the gang, having been organ.
lied bv them. In connection with the
above subject the Jamestown Capital
says: "We'l wager a years subscrip-
ton that if the gang does anything in
this direction it will be TO put up a
tool to split the opposition to Jud and
thus secure his reelection. Jud wakes
up with too much native alaority when
the checks are signed for the old gang
to 60 back on him."

The Storm Is Renewed in the Sen.

ate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Ain the senate
today, after discussing u naval bill, the
Dakota bill was placed before the senate,
and Mr.. Harrison took the floor. He
insisted that the real animus of the OBJ
jections was that another presidential
election should pass before the people Of
Dakota were to be permitted to particle
pate IN such election.
Mr.. Morgan said the senator from In
diana (Mr. Harrison) who was evidently
a candidate for the presidency, might
not have u chance at the votes of Dako-
tn for Morgan did not think he would
ripen in four years.
Mr.. Harrison replied that if he ever
should be a candidate, although he would
not be at a Ire but that he nigh,
justly claim the electoral vote Of Ala
bama, he would never expect to have it
counted for him. .
The debate nov became general, and
on Mr.. Butler stating in one instance
that MI. Harrison did not understa MI
the point at any moment in the contro-
versy, Mr.. Morgan remarked, "Oh, h.
does not want to understand it; let hin,
50 along"
Mr.. Harrison insisted that Messrs.
Morgan and Butler had set upa man OF
straw and hustled HIM all around the
senate chamber, and as the debate pro.
reeded, and Mr.. Harrison read u pa, Ell
contrndicting these statements read on
the other side to show the feeling prev.
alent in Dakota with regard to the ques-
ton Of admission. Fir concluding his
remarks, Mr.. Harrison appealed for
Justice for Dakota from. the men who,
HIS the descendants of the men Of '76,
would have themselves felt restive un:
der the restraints now imposed ON the
territory naat was seeking admission.
After some debate as to the time
the question should come to a vote and
Without Coming to any agreement, the
senate went into executive session.

Mt. 3. Baker, Of the British Associa-

dreds of existing railway bridges which
carry twenty trains a day with perfect
safety would break down quickly under
twenty trains por hour. This fact was
forced on INV attention nearly twenty
years ago by the fracture Of u number
Of iron girlers of ordinary strength
under IL tive-minuto train service.
Similarly, when in New York last year,
noticed n tho case OF some hundreds
Of yird"rs ON tho elevated railway that
