epecial to the indianapolis journal
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2L-Representative Hen
derson, Of Iowa, is q fellow-townsman Of Sena-
tor Allison, one of his most intimate friends,
and was his personal representative and spokes-
man at the Chicago convention. / asked him
o-day whether he thought the Senator would
accept q position in Harrison's Cabinet. "He
would accept nothing but the Treasury" replied
Henderson, land even then it would depend
upon Clarkson's wishes. If Clarkson wants to
go into the Cabinet. Allison will decline in his
favor. Allison would rather have Clarkson in
the Cabinet than be there himself, but Clarkeon
has already told his friends, and has said to
me many times, that he did not wish any Office
whatever; that he would prefer to run his
paper. Still. you never can tell. If Harrison
should invite him to take a portfolio. be might
change his mind. 1t IS pretty certain. though,
that if Iowa is represented in the next Cabinet.
either Allison or Clarkson will be the man, end
Clarkson can determine which it shall be-" SEN
ator Allison arrived this evening. but declined
to say anything about his visit at Indianapolis.
He remarked. however, that more had been
published about it than had actually occurred.
Senator Quay has gone home to spend Thanks
giving, and, it is understood, will visit Indian
apolis before ne returns to Washington.

A correspondent writing from Paris at .hs

This separated husband and wife still more

Nine. Boulanger and her daughters were very

PANIC IN A SCH00L-R0OM.
A Cry Of ''Fire!!' Causes Great Excitement
Which q Teacher Yainly Tries to Subdus.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. ga panic occurred at the
Blair school, to-day, and nothing but the great
presence of mind of the corps of teachers pre-
vented great loss of life. The steam heating
apparatus got out OF order. and the rafting in
the coils, coupled with escaping steam. alarmed
the children. who. fearing an explosion, started
for the door. Miss Bettina Krebs, the teacher
in charge. got to the door first and prevented q
stampede. Scarcely had order been restored,
however. when the noise in the steam pipes was
repeated with increased violence, and before
Miss Krebs could reach the door a second time,
the terror-stricken children had gained the hall.
The faithful teacher was borne to the floor and
trampled upon, receiving serious injuries. The
excitement spread to Room No. 10, just oppo-
site, presided over by Miss Cara Sickle, and
the children became manageable there. The
shutting Of feet and Kissing Of escaping steam
spread the panic to Room IA. Miss Mary P. Mil
Ter, and she. too, was thrown from her feet
and trampled upon. The japitor appeared on
the scene, and did rough but heroic work
in preventing the children from trampling each
other to death. A pupil in room No. 5 raised
the cry of fire and the pupils made a rush for
the hall. Miss Cullen, the teacher, with COM
mendable presence of mind and heroic efforts.
quellsd the disturbance aud in q brief period
order was restored. Two teachers, Hiss Miller
and Mics Krebs, were badly injured by being
~trampled upon. Seven pupils were injured.
Birdie Weakened was so badly trsmpled upon
that she had to be- removed ia an ambulance;
Annie Dodge, severe internal injuries and ex-
terual bruises; Annie Meyers, head baby gasbed
on stone steps; Emma Delendorf. left arm bro.
ken; Ruth Reilly, serious internal injuries; IDA

The panic created intense excitement and many
parents hurried to the schoolhouse to look aft

IRISH LAND PURCHASE.

A Third Reading of the Bill Defeated by an
Objection by Mr.. Healy.
LONDON, Nov. 2S.-The debate on the Irish
land-purchase bill was resumed in the House Of
Commons this evening.
Mr.. MAhony, Nationalist. moved the insertion
in the bill of a new clause to the effect that the
land commission shall take as security for the
payment by tenants of their installments the
improvements executed By the tenant or his
predecessor in his title.
MI. Balfour, Chief Secretary for Ireland, op-
posed the motion on the ground that it would
introduce great confusion. and, also, because 1t
was against the interests of the purchasing
tenant.
The motion was rejected by a vote Of 139
to Ca.
Mr.. Smith, the government leader, appealed
to the House TO assist in closing the discussion
on the bill. The government, he said, was
DESTROYS Of nesting the opposition as far
as possible, and would accent the series Of
amendments proposed by Mir. Healy relating to
sub-letting to laborsrs. and, also, the provision
that the land commission shall not sanction an
advance OF money TO a tenant unless they are
certain that the application of the tenant was
cot made under duress. The government also
intended to promote the bill dealing with the
registration OF titles.
Mr.. Morley and Mr.. Shaw-Lefever both ex-
pressed themselves satisfied with these con-
cessions.
Mr.. smith thereupon moved that tho pur-
chase bill be read a third time.
Mr.. Hsaly, however, objected on account Of
undue haste.
Mr.. Balfour said that Mr.. Edward Harring-
ton would not be arrested under the pending
warrant against him during the debates on the
Irish estimates
Mr.. smith announced the withdrawal Of the
wheel-tax bill.

who the Lone Highwsyman Is.

SAN Francisco. Nov. ga detective in the
employ of Wells. Fargo d Co. is authority for
the statement that the recent series of bold
stage robberies IN northern California were the
work of BLACK Bart, the famous lone high
wayman, who robbed ihirty-one stages in this
State before he was finally captured five years
ago and sent to San Quentin. Bart, whose real
name is Bolles, came from Missouri and began
mis- robberies in 1870. and for thirteen years be
completely mystifed the police. His system
was TO watch stage coaches with powerful field
glasses, and when he found no armed guard was
on the stage. he would mask himself and hold
up the stage without regard to the numb Der of
passengers on board He regularly returned
the money aud vAluables to the female
passengers, and it was bis custom TO leave
doggerel verses on broken express boxes
making game of the detectives. He was finally
caught in San Francisco and sent to San Quentin
for seven years. The detective learned that
BLACK Bart" after his release last January,
went TO Visalia, in kern county, aud registered
as Moore. When the stage was robbed near
Reading. last July, the detective suspected
Bart and investigated. He found all the famil-
lar methods used by the Ions highwayman. and
since then three other stages have been robbed IN
the neiRhboring counties. all by tho ssme skill
full hand. Descriptions of the masked Highway
man. IS well IA his daring and skill. correspond
with Bart. Detective s have hopes Of soon catch
ing him. but the prospects are dubious. as he
has sluded them before for more than ten
years.

BERLIN, Nov. 2S.-In the Reichstag, to-day,
the debate on the budget was resumed. Herr
Liebknecht (Radicall attacked the foreign policy
of the government and suggested that it ought
to propose a general European disarmament.
Herr Won Boetticher, Frussian Minister of
State and Imperial Secretary of State
for the Interior. declared that the
suggestion was impracticable. Prince Bis
marck. he said, had never provoked
q conflict. On the contrary, he steadfastly
sought peace. The federal government, Herr
Won Boetticher said, were we'll aware that the
social legislation of past years had not removed
all evils. but they would have been held forget
full OF duty if they had done nothing. Their en-
deavor had been to remedy the evils singly.
The government cast back upon the Socialist
party the charge Of pursuing a policy Of aggra-
walton. 1t was the desire OF the g~overnment to
reconcile antsgonism and promote the vel
fare of all classes.
The colonial question was paramount In the
debate, almost all OF the speakers referring to
the subject. Herr Won Bennington said that
Germany ought not to be discouraged by the
failures III East Africa; she should not give up
the game as lost at tho first check. England,
Spain and Portugal had met with similar mis-
fortunes at first. Referring to the naval loan,
he said that the amount asked was not sufficient
to build and equip twenty-eicht additional YES
sells. and he demanded q careful examination of
the question.
HAMBURG, Nov. 28.-The Hamburger Core
spondence publishes q Berlin letter, which u is re-
garded as an official utterance. The writer says:
Germany is entitled to hold the Sultan re-
s~ponsible for the non-execution Of the treaty
with the East Africa Company, there being a
suspicion that he may have even encouraged the
risings. But as England desires the support of
the Sultan, Germany acauiesces 10 her policy. on
the condition that she receive English support
in o REGION which is of subordinate value for
the English colonial policy, but which is Of
prime Importance to Germany. Should the OBJ
position in England carry its anti-Germsn pro-
p~osals. we should be reluctantly forced to the
conclusion that England believes that there is
no need now of Germapy's friendship. and that
it will not be needed in the future. Situations
in which ENGLAND would feel the want of the
friendship of q European power are perhaps
improbable in the immediate future, but they
are b. 70 means impossible

A REPENTANT THIEF.
lie Returns to His Home and Announces His
Readiness to Make ReparatiOn.

New YORK, Nov. 2s.-A morning paper says:
"Slowly a sad-eyed, careworr man approached
the clerk at the desk of the Metropolitan Hotel,
Sunday, and said he wished to engage a room.
He quickly said he did not care to register, as
such action would give him n%otoriety that he
did not wish to encounter just now. All the
time he glanced nervously about, evidently fear
fol that he might be recognized. The clerk said
that hs could not grant the request, as it was
against the rules of the house. The stranger
sighed, said ne supposed he might as we'll reveal
his identity. and then told the clerk that he was
G.. w. Waldron, the banker Of Hillsdale. Mich,
who last summer ran away with Mrs.
Bidwell, the wife of a man living in a neiehbor-
ing town. Waldron also Rrimly said that he
took with him about $50, 900 in cash. and that,
as he had some of the money left, be could pay
for such accommodation as might be given him.
When a reporter called upon Mr. Waldron, Sun
day evening, he said he did not feel disposed to
make any statement concerning his escapade,
and he said but little about his home. family
and business, except that he was on his way
back from London. Yesterday he left this city
for Detroit and will 60 thence to Hillsdale.
Wsldron said that he had deposited enough
money with q New York bank to make his cred
