An Eastern politician, who sought high

Some people seem TO forget that 1t was the
legislature that two years ago made the ap-

1t becomes evident now that If we are
again to be cozened out of statehood 1t will
be due to the Republican senate, as in 1892.
While the omnibus bill is not all that could

NO CABINET PLACE
For Minnesota, According
Senator Washburn.

Senator elect Washburn has reached
New York, and the World interviewed
him at the Fifth Avenue hotel. Be-
ginning with the bribery charges, he
said:
80 far as I am concerned, there
never was the slightest foundation for
any such charges. | did not pay any
man cent for his vote, and know of no
one who did. The fact is, the Sabin
men. like all good fighters, died hard,
and some of them started the bribery
stories in order to furnish a preteXt for
bolting the caucus. But when the two
committees of the respective branches
of the legislature appointed, to investi-
gate the matter, made their reports the
opposition found that they had no case
and they wheeled into line. L do not
know that any money was used cor
ruptIy in the senatorial fight; certainly
none was used with my knowledge or
consent"
"Did YOU stop off to call on Gen. Har-
rison on your way East?'
sNo; / did not have time. Minnesota
has no cabinet aspirants."
Senator Sabin is reported to have
urged Gen. Harrison to appoint Warner
Miller"
HAS he? We'll, l. thlDk lt would be q
pity if the great state of New York
should go unrepresented in the cabinet,
but do not feel like interfering in your
New York matters. What do | think
of the Samoan question? | haven't
givenit much attention. 1t would be
unfortunate if we should become in
yolyed in war with Germany, and a
peaceable settlement should be made if
possible. Of course, we don't want
peace at the expense of our self respect
and dignity. If it comes to that. then
we must fight. headache or no headache.
/ think Gen. Harrison's policy will be,
conservative and give satisfaction to
the country. AS to Blaine's appoint
ment? Well, we should have been
nightly disappointed in the West if
MIR. Blaine had been overlooked"
Mr.. Washburn, continuing, said that
lie Thought there would be at least four
new states to participate in the next
presidential election. He was in favor
of dividing Dakota into two states and
admitting Montana and Washington at
once.

SECRETARY FAIRCHILD SUED
A Lawyer Who Lost His Fees At
tempts to Get Even.

Boston, Feb. 6.-Jerome T. Manning,
the well-known Alabama claims attor
ney, has brought suit against Secretary
of the Treasury Fairchild to recover
$4,000 damages. The papers were
served on Mr.. Fairchild when lie was
recently in Boston at the Tariff Reform
club dinner, and the writ is returnable
at Cambridge, March 4. Charles Cow
ley, counsel for plaintiffs, stated
this morning that the suit is
grounded on the fact that Mr..
Fairchild, while assistant secretary
under Daniel Manning, entered an order
that in cases where the court of Ala
bama claims had given decisions in
favor of claimants the drafts which are
issued by the treasury department be
delivered t. the claimants and not the
attorney for the latter. Mr.. Manning,
the plaintiff, contends that this order
should not apply to claims dispOseu OF
previous to the establishment of the
regulation, and alleges that Mr.. Fair.
child wrongly caused drafts for very
large amounts 10 be paid to claimants
instead of to the plaintiff, whereby the
latter lost his fees.

doubt, have republican flavor, ana

taste for swell titles. but ambassador is
word that has weight and prestige

functionaries, and these agents are sent

that he found in his service in the twi-
light civilizations that the plain minis

bassadors to have first audience. Di-

LIE CARON Is A LIAR.
Such Is to Be inferred from the
Testimony of the InfOrmer.

Such Is to Be inferred from the
Testimony of the Informer.
Special Cable to the Globe.
LONDON, Feb. 6.-The witness Beech,
or Dr.. LIE Caron, resumed his testimony
to-day before the Parnell commission.
He stated that at conference of the
"B. c." society in 1881, preparations for
dynamite operations were discussed.
It was also recommended that classes
be organized for the study of mining
engineering. Mr.. Parnell, he said, was
present at this conference. This wit
ness then detailed conversation he
had had with Alexander Sullivan in
1881 on the subject of the pro-
posed alliance of secret organi-
cations. John O'C0nnor, who, the
witness said, was the agent for carry
ing arms to ireland. attended the con-
yention representing the supreme cOun-
Gil of the Irish Brotherhood, The wit
ness conyersed with him in Chicago,
and O'Connor said that all was going
satisfactorily. The witness said that he
saw Mackey and Lomasney two days
before the latter sailed for America to
carry out plan of campaign by means
of explosives, the details of which the
witness was unable to give, as Lomas-
ney did not return to the organization,
he having since supported the family OF
his father. Lomasney's brother. Michael,
the witness said, perished in the Lon
don bridge explosion. LIE CaTon
said that in compliance with in
structions from headquarters he
attended the Chicago convention.
Several priests, who favored the use of
dynamite, also attended. Rev. Father
Belts, of the aggressive party, was
chosen president of the revolutionary
directory. In circular, giving re-
said that the doctrine adopted by the
convention was s'that people who were
living under an unnatural government,
and wished for natural government,
were entitled to overthrow the unnat-
ural and establish the natural govern
ment." The witness sent copies of the
documents of the brotherhood to the
English government. Alexander Sulli
van went to England, said the witness,
in 1882, and remained for two months.
LIE Caron cOnversed with Sullivan
concerning plans for future war
fare. Sullivan said that in the
future men would be chosen for
work, who would not exceed their OF
ders like Gallagher, who gave himself
away and enabled Jim McDermott to
get information. In the future they
would continue to send men to England
to carry on active dynamite war. A
circular was issued in 1883 in which
every branch of the. brotherhood was
commanded to perfect itself in some
particular branch of warfare. Attorney
General Webster read the official report
of the National league convention,
held in Chicago, and presented list of
some of the leagues accounts, includ-
ing items showing that the sum of ST.
1O2 was sent to Patrick Egan at Paris,
and Sl2.9O3 was sent to Mr.. Parnell. He
also quoted from a eablegram sent by
Mr.. Parnell. advising the convention to
frame platform which would enable
them to continue to accept assistance
from America, at the same time avoid
ing anything which would give England
a pretext to suppress the national move

ACCORDING to the theories in trade
circles that dealers in this state and
adjoining regions are reducing their
stocks to the lowest possible point in
anticipation of the early spring vista
tions of the assessors, little immediateI
improvement need be anticipated in the
jobbing trade. The country merchants
and elevator people are considerate
enough to tighten the labors of the as
SCISSORS, even at the expense of personal
inconvenience. They are not. however,
the only thoughtful persons who try to
make the assessorship sinecure.

Now up, now down. throughout the vale,

Out from the darkness into light-when. 10.

And iridescent shone his feathered breast.
And so the righteous soul, when leaving

THE disposition in several of the legis-
latures, as observed, is not toward the
single tax on realty, but more search
ing methods for reaching personal prop
erty. In Ohio, for instance, it is pro-
posed to allow the assessor but one
term-three years-and require him to
administer the oath personally and al
low no winking. Fees and licenses are
being enlarged. Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Wisconsin and some other states
now assess real estate only for county
purposes, and raise the other revenues
by indirect taxation.

Emperor FRANCIS JOScpn MAKES Il
Proclamation to His People.
VIENNA, Feb. emperor Francis
Joseph in an autograph letter to Pre-
mier Won Taafe orders that publicity be
given to the following proclamation:
To My Peoples: Overwhelmed with deep
scrutable decree of Divine Providence, ap-
pealing with my peoples to the Almighty to
give me strength so that l may not falter IN
the conscientious performance OF my duties
that course Of steadfast adherence
which assures for the commonwealth
the blessings Of peace. II has been
a consolation to me during these days OF
bitter woe to know that was upheld by the
heartfelt sympathy of my people of which
| have received from all sides the most
touching tokens. 1t is with profound graft
tude that feel how the bond of mutual love
and fa1thfulness uniting me and my house
with all the people Of the empire only gains
strength and security i'll times of such great
affiiction,
The proclamation further expresses
the heartfelt thanks of the emperor and
empress and their sOrely stricken
daughter-in-law for the sympathy ac-
corded them, and concludes by asking
Gods help in the future and the CO.
operation of Austrian subjects with
their ruler to secure the welfare of their
fatherland.
To-day S35 wreaths were carried from
the Hofburg to the Capuchins' church.
Some difficulty was experienced in pre-
venting people from plucking flowers as

address to the army. At Moran. where
the priests refused to Ofticiate at
requiem mass for Rudolph, the whole
populace went into the church and sang
requiem service without accOmpani-
ment or bell-ringing. AT Laibach a
crows smashed the bishops windows
and forced the sexton to ting the bells.
In January Rudolph addressed himself
to the pope, without his fathers knowl-
edge, to ask assistance in obtaining a
divorce, and authority to marry again.
The pope sent the letter to the emperor,
and the result was serious eXplana-
ton between the father and the son,
which probably unhinged the latter.
