Senator voorhees, III.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.- Senator
Voorhees,, who returned from Indiana
ten days ago, has been confined to his
house several days. He was seized by
severe chill while at the capitol early in
the week and yesterday another came on
him. Tonight he is reported to be
greatly improved and a member of his
family expresses the belief that the
senator will soon be himself again.
THE INTERSTATE COMMISSION.
Chairman Cooley of the Interstate
commerce commission returned to Wash
ington to-day after a long absence, a
great part of which has been spent in the
West. He will leave the city again to-
morrow for Indianapolis where the COM
mission expects to hear number of
cases. Mr.. Veasey, the newly appointed
member of the commission, who
takes the place vacated by Mr.. Walker,
will join the other commissioners at
Indianapolis and participate in the hear
ing of complaints. From Indianapolis
the commissioners will proceed further
west to Chicago and Kansas City, at
which places cases have been assigned
for hearing during the present month.

Tanner Fails to HIaterialize.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-COmmis-
sioner of Pensions Tanner did not put
in his appearance at the pension Office
to-day and Deputy Commissioner Hiram
Smith is acting commissioner. 1t is be-
lieved the commissioner has taken leave
of absence until the time for him to
turn over the office formally to his sue
cessor. His daughter, who is his con-
fdential secretary, was at her post of
duty to-day.
Secretary Noble was asked to-day if
he intended to make public the corre-
spohdence between himself and Commits
sioner Tanner which, c4it is said Z,
the secretary laid before the presi-
dent, and on which he based his rea-
sons for asking that the commissioner
should vacate the office. The secretary
reliped that he had no intention at
present to make the correspondence pub
lie, but if it was deemed necessary, and
there was any public demand for it, he
might do so in the near future. Secre-
tary Noble also refused TO say anything
with regard to the common report that
Hon. W. H. Warner would be in Wash
ington to-day i'll response to a telegram
sent to him i'll regard to his taking the
Office of commissioner of pensions.

SOUR LAKE, TEX, Sept. 3.-Dr. n.
c. Parsons, aged ffty-slx years, died
this morning at 4:30 O'Clock, having
been afflicted for some months past with
some heart and lung trouble He arose
in the morning preceding his death feel
ing as well as common, except that he
complained Of feeling a little feverIsh,
went into breakfast about O'Clock
eating nothing, however, but a glass
of milk. His son, c. @. Parsons, came
in at the time, and he remarked to him
that he thought of taking a course of
physic the night following and gave
instructions how to fix the same.
On rising from the table few minutes
later he was taken very suddenly with
a rIgor Or congestive chill lasting him
about two hours, after which a high
fever ensued, causing delirium in short
while. During his consciousness, how
ever, he remarked to wife and son and
friends present, that God had called him
and he was going. The doctor came
here in 1874 from North Louisiana, and
was q man of noble spirit kind and
generous TO all and was very close in his
friendship, being also regarded as a good
Christian.

Tanners successors

WASHINGTON, Sept. I3.-Hon. Will
liam Warner, ex-member Of congress
from Kansas and x-oommander-jn-ch
of the Grand Army OF the Republic, ar
rived in Washington this afternoon and
spent two hours in consultation with Sec
rotary Noble. AS he came out of the
Office he said in answer to queries of re-
porter:
"'Secretary Noble and have discussed
nothing but the affairs of the Sioux com
mission as yet.

pension commissionership?'
"Oh yes, incidentally. not only 70 that

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-The question
agitating the president now is successor
to Tanner. 1t will not be hard to find
man to I'll the place, which he fell
short of filing, hut the Grand Army
people seem to consider they have
clam on the office, and New York also
feels that the office should go to that
state. Tonight it looks like Warner of
Missouri. This would placate the Grand
Army, but New York will naturally
demur. There is a prospect that the
correspondence between Tanner and No
BILE (which virtually led to the former s
removal, will be published. If so
some racy bits of repartee will be made
public. Senator ingalls, supported Tan
ner 5 policy and is quoted as saying:
1.-THE only fault 1 have to find with
Tanner Is that he did not have two feet
while in office so that he would have
made rapid progress in the attainment
of his policy.
Secretary Window urges the appoint
ment Of Charles j Roe Of Wisconsin, eX-
commander of the Grand Army of the
Republic, but it is doubtful if Wisconsin
gets the Office.

1ncrense of Back Pay Claims,

WASHINGTON, Sept 13.-Second Audi
tor Pattison has issued a circular recit-
ing the steady increase in the number of
claims for back pay and bounty, and the
pressure to have the claims made special.
AS this would work injustice to claimants
without influence, the auditor says these
claims will be disposed of IN order, ex-
captions being made only when the
claimant is in INDECENT circumstances
and actually suffering for pecuniary aid
as certified by responsible parties.

Whites Rapidly Aiming in Mississippi.
MERIDIAN, MISS, Sept. 13.-The
white people of Newton county, and es-
peciaIly IN the vicinity of Decatur, have
been much disturbed by reports that ne
groes were arming and organizing, and
rumors were put afloat by the negroes
themselves that they were going to make
serious trouble, and that meetings were
being held over the county looking to
that end. The result Is that the
white people are arming themselves and
merchants have been unable to supply
the demand for Winchesters, one mer-
chant stating he could have sold over one
hundred rifles yesterday if he could have
supplied them. The whites declare they
want no trouble, but will be prepared for
an emergency. The negroes acknowledge
that they have been organizing politi-
cally, but deny that they intend any dis
turbance, and conservative citizens gen.
orally take this view of the matter.

has already seen it in manuscript.
Whether or not it will be made public is
not yet determined.
The appearance Of George s. Merrill,
insurance commissioner of Massachusetts
and an ex-cOmmander of the Grand
Army of the Republic in Washington to-
day has caused considerable speculation.
An invitation to come TO Washington was
telegraphed him at Boston with the
knowledge, if not at the request of the
president, but he had already left there
for this city on other business
and called at the White House this morn
ing IN company with Senator Dawes.
Opinion is divided tonight as to the re-
spective chances of Warner and Merren
to succeed Tanner, but that one Of them
will be commissioner of pensions all unite
in believing unless they both decline the
tender of the office.
