jority in the Next House.
Copyright 1888, by Tie California Associated Pres.i
WASHINGTON, August 21st-Estimates
are being made by both parties as to the
chances of changing the political COM
plexion of various close Congressional dis
tricts. The Democrats figure out ma
jority for themselves in the next Congress
to little more than their majority in this
House. They claim that they will gain
one member in Missouri, TWO in Ken
lucky, two in Virginia, one in North
Carolina, two land perhaps three) in
Illinois, one in Indiana, and one
in California. They expect to lose
one member in Tennessee, one
in Minnesota, one in Ohio, two in Massa-
ehusetts, and possibly two in Connecticut
This would give them gain of three. In
New York they expect to hold about their
present strength to make a gain of one.
They rather calculated on losing one and
gaining two members in that State. In
Iowa, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and gen
orally throughout the other States, they ex-
pect little if any change.
The Republicans, on the other hand
have every confidence of securing a ma
jority of Congressmen in the next House.

WASHINGTON, August 21st.-Stewart of
Nevada made personal explanation in the
Senate this afternoon. The New York
Herald charged that he had offered an
amendment to the sundry civil bill in the
interests Of mining and timber thieves,
which would despoil the public domain.
The amendment allows miners to cut scrub
timber, unfit for manufacture into lumber
from the public lands. Stewart said that
his object was to stop the vexatious prose-
cution of miners for cutting timber, and he
had read number of letters to show how
innocent men were being prosecuted EndeF

ten. Francis I lllou Nichols was short
time since nominated as Democratic can
didate for governor OF Louisiana, after a
long and exciting canvass, in which he and
the present governor, Sam MeEnery, were
opposing candidates. Nichols and his fol-
lowers called themselves the reform section
Of the Democratic party, while among those
who supported him were some OF the worst
Of that very bad element which composes
the ruling ring OF Louisiana. What Is
known as "the Big Four, " that IS, the
four who control all the vicious elements OF
New Orleans, were noted ami conspicu jus
among the reformers who supported gen.
Nichols.
Nichols himself was the Democratic eau

he was at the bead OF that organization
known as the White League, a political
combination constituted to commit trGt l.,
