standing Between Them.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Last Sunday
afternoon went to the train which carried
away from us eX-Gov. Ordway, Hon.
George S. Engle and Hon. ID. NJ. Inman.
They were en- route for New York, and
Mr.. Ordway said that he was going on TO
New Hampshire. Mr.. Engel has accom-
pliShed his mission here before the land
office and will soon return TO Dakota, al
though he will spend few more days in
Washington before he takes his departure.
Mr.. Inman says that he will go on to Da-
kota, and he may have reached home by
this time. Mr.. Ordway is power in Da-
kota politics, and it is charged that ne is
working with Mr.. lnman TO defeat the bill
for the division of the territory. 1t has
been frequently alleged that Mr.. Inman is
under the domination of Mr.. Ordway, and
that he is always to be found ''chum-
ming with the old gentleman whenever
he is in Washington. What truth there
may be in the allegation. you may be better
able to judge for yourself, after reading the
following incident: 1t was on the evening
of April 10 that Mr.. human denied to your
correspondent that he had ever had any but
social relations with Mr.. Ordway, and that
Mr.. Ordway was not one of his callers, but
that he occasionally met with him in the
lobby of the hotel. Yet. at IL o'clock that
same night the ex-governor came into the
hotel glanced furtively about to see if he
was noticed, and hastily went to the ele-
vator. Stepping in, he found it occupied
by
A COUPLE OF LADIES,
and Hon. NJ. II. Day of Dakota. When
the elevator reached the third floor, the
conductor said, mo. 202 is to your left,
sir" and the old gentleman got out. De
was closely followed by MIR. Day, who has
rooms on the same floor. Instead of going
to the left, as he ought to have done, he
went to the right, toward Mr.. Days room.
Of course that gentleman followed him,
as he was in front of him. Mr.. Ordway
walked rapidly and disappeared around a
corner and went down stairs. That was
impolitic. No. 202 is the room which was
occupied by Mr.. lnman. and it was not
only patent that the ex-governor aud Re-
publican boss was going to have a midnight
conference with Chairman Inman. but il
was also plain that he did not want
to be seen. He was watched, how
ever, and he went to Mr.. Inman's
room, after while. The incident was re-
lated TO me by Mr.. Day, who assures me
that he will stand sponsor for its correct
ness. He says that he drew the inference
that a midnight secret conference was to
be held, and that its discovery was mere
accident. While we all know that Mr..
Day and Mr.. Inman do not harmonic, as
we thought and hoped that they would.
we know that Mr.. Day would not misstate
the case, even where suspicious circum-
stances were developed. as in the above in
cident. When l saw Mr.. Boynton. Mr..
Inman's right hand man, he said that he
knew nothing of the matter, but that ii
was quite likely that Mr.. 0rdway had
called upon Mr.. Inman, because of the fact
that Mr.. Inman had been seriously i'll for
several days. That may be fair explana-
ton Of it all.

SPARKS GROWS POLITE.
Lamar's Recent Order Makes tn
Commissioner AffabIe.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, April 23.-Your tele-
graphic advices concerning the bill Ito
create two additional land districts for Da-
kota, and to define the boundaries of the
Deadwood district" were very meagre,
necessarily. You were informed that the
senate had practically annulled the bill on
Monday last. That was erroneous. The
bill was favorably reported upon by the
senate committee on public lands by Sena-
tor Van Wyck, with the one amendment,
striking out the clause naming the points at
which the land offices should be located.
That was done because it is the presidents
prerOgative to locate new offices, and the
bill as it read might have been construed by
the president as an infringement of his
rights, and have been vetoed therefore.
For that reason, and as precautionary and
careful move, the clause referred to was
stricken out. 1t is safe to say, however,
that the bill as amended has the

of the entire committee and will quite
likely become law. Since the reversal

eral representative men, in congress and

and affability with which they are met, and
their business fastened by the commits
sioner whenever they call there. Mr.. Sparks
told DakOtan to-day that his force of eX-
aminers had been increased from three to
eight within a few weeks and that he ex-
poets to have twenty examiners at work
within two weeks. The force is being in
creased and the public business is being at
tended to in a business-like manner, as
well as in an accommodating spirit. No
matter what the cause may be, you will be
