ST. LOUIS is EXCITED.
The Municipal Campaign Begins
With Discord in Both Parties.

-
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 2s.-The polit-
ical situation here is at high tension.
and much bitterness has been engen-
dered in both of the great parties. The
Republicans have nominated Col.
James G. Butler for mayor, and his op-
ponent in the convention, ID. z. Slat-
terry, publicly avOwS that he was slaugh-
tered by free use of Doodle. Mr.. Slat-
terry threatened to run independently,
but was finally prevailed upon to not
thus imperil party success. The Re-
publican city central committee is made
up largely or Slattery men, and
to-day when Col. Butler was called
upon to pay over to the
committee an assessment of 5000.
he declined to comply unless he knew
how the money was to be used. There
upon members of the committee threat
ened to take his name off the ticket and
substitute another candidate, which it
is claimed will be done unless Colonel
Butler pays over his assessment. The
feeling is hardened by an evening Re-
publican paper tonight, boiling the
nominee for mayor and coming out for
the Democratic candidate. The Demo-
Gratis are no better off. After bitter
personal contest between George w.
Allen, the present mayor of st. Louis.
and Judge E. A. Noonan, of the court of
criminal correction. the latter was nom
mated for the mayoralty. A leading
morning Democratic paper had bitterly
opposed the nomination of Noonan, on
the ground that he was the alleged
champion of the saloon element and
freely predicted his defeat if nom
mated. Messages from Washington.
D. c.. to party leaders say the election
in st. Louis is regarded there with
much solicitude, owing to the remark
able result of the November election
when the Republicans rolled up a ma
iOrity of over 10000.

HELENA, Mont, March 2S.-H. F.
Clark. a heavy dealer in furniture, made
an assignment two weeks ago. As he
did large business, the failure was
surprise, but developments since make
the matter clear. -Four years ago Clark
married Miss Marie Redlon, of Mime
sofa; and for two years their life was a
happy one. After awhile a sister of the
wife came on a visit, and Clark became
infatuated with her. The result was
his financial embarrassment and an
elopement with the sister. Soon after
the arrival of the woman, Mrs. Clark's
suspicious were aroused. She taxed her
husband with his infdelity, but
he denied it, though the sister
was sent home. Three weeks
ago the wife discovered a letter
from her husband to her sister. in
which the plan for the elOpement was
outlined. The husband confessed, but
promised to be true to his wife in fu-
ture. Last Sunday Clark started off on
what was supposed to be hunting
trip, but instead took a train for the
East. and is thought TO have met Marie
Redlon at st. Paul. Some time ago
Clark gave Marie Redlon deeds for sew
eral pieces of valuable real estate here.
His failure was for about $1,000

ANOTHER COMPLAINT.
Gen. SchofieId's appointment of
His Brother Causes Trouble.

WASHINGTON, March 2s.-Army Off
GERS who are not so lucky as to have
held staff appointments have taken
alarm at the action of Maj. Gen. Scho-
field in appointing his brother an aide
de-camp on his staff. 1t was Secretary
Endicott's policy to distribute these
places, which he regarded as educa-
tional, among officers who had previously
been employed in connection with their
regiments. When their appointments
as staff officers expired he held that
they had acquired all of the
benefits likely to be received from
the places. and that they should give
way to other officers. Secretary Endi-
colts position in this matter gave rise
to some friction with army officers high
in rank, but was generally well re-
ceiyed by the line. In the present in
stance, the aide-de-camp has already
served number of years in that capa-
city, and it is feared that his reappOint-
ment will establish a precedent which
will be seized upon by the other major
generals as an excuse for oYerturning
the practice established by Secretary
EndicOtt.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The exec
utive session of the senate lasted be-
tween two and three hours this after
noon, and was confined largely to dis
cusSion of the nomination of Murat Hal
stead to be minister to Germany. Be-
fore that came up the nominations OF
John G. New to be consul-general TO
London. and of Lewis Wolfiy to be gov
eInor of Arizona, which were pending,
were confirmed. A final attempt of the
opposition to defeat Mr.. News confir-
nation was based upon the assertion
that his paper, the indianapolis Jour
nal, had published articles reflect
ing upon the private character
Of President Cleveland. This charge
was warmly denied by Senator Voer-
hees, of Indiana, and the nomination
was confirmed. The committee on for
eign relations favorably reported all the
diplomatic nominations of yesterday.
but in the case of Mr.. HalStead the re-
port was not unanimous. On motion
to confirm his nomination the nays were
in the majority; Senators Teller, Plumb,
ingalls,, FarWell and Cullom voting
with the Democrats. Mr.. Sherman
moved to reconsider the vote. and on
that motion a long debate ensued, in
the course of which the grOurd of OBJ
lection to Mr.. Halstead was disclosed.
When the senate refused to enter upon
an investigation of the election of
Senator Payne, of Ohio, Mr.. Hal
stead, whose paper, the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette had strongly urged
the investigation, made uncomplimen-
tary illusions to the Republicans who
voted against the investigation. The
feeling against him on the part of the
senators who fell under his diSpleasure
at that time is very bitter, and one Of
them is reported to have said to Presi-
dent Harrison this morning that Mr..
Halstead could not be contirmed-tha
the senators whom he had criticized
would not vote for him. The motion to
reconsider was pending when the SEN
ate adjourned. The vote on cOnforma-
