SENATOR MORGAN'S NEGRO PLAN.
He Wants the Negro to Emigrate to the Cong
Free State. Hence His Resolution.

WASHINGTON, Dec 30.-The Democratic
members of the Senate will meet in caucus
shortly to arrange minority representation
on the committees so that they can be
reported to the Senate before adjournment
for the holiday recess.
Senator Morgan, of Alabama, was asked
to-day by an Associated Press reporter
the purport of the resolution offered by him
yesterday regarding trade and commerce
with the free state of Congo, etc. The
Senator said: "When the convention of
powers met in Berlin to fix the status of
the Congo state, the United States did not
accept the conclusions of the convention
and therefore has no political right in that
country. 1 do not know that it has ever
been brought to the attention of Mr.. Blaine,
but am anxious that it should, and that
the United States should secure it's just
political power in the Congo. My reason
for desiring this is that it may be able to
encourage the negroes of this country, who
have wealth and enterprise but have not
standing and never will have here, to en-
gage in trade in that country. Ultimately
have in view general emigration of
negroes from the United States to the
Congo. They came from that country and

Cronin Case Counsel Ar,uments.

CHICAGO, Dec. 1O.-Forrest resumed his
address to the Cronin jury this morning,
claiming that the stains and paint on the
parlor floor of the Carlson cottage might
have been put there by reporter to get up
a sensation just as was done with the
bloody cotton batting found in the base
ment.
Forrest made an exhaustive analysis of
the testimony of some of the prominent
witnesses for the prosecution, reaching
the conclusion that the Cronin faction of
the Gamma Gael drilled the witnesses to
give false testimony and that all of the
new evide nee brought out since the sitting
of the coroner jury had been manipulated
to strengthen the weak spots in the case of
the state. Regarding the matter of theknlves
found on Cough lin, Forrest declared that
Conklin had committed perjury in swear
ing they belonged to Cronin. Forrest will
probably conclude tomorrow and the
court will adjourn over Thursday, which is
election day Luther Latin Mills, who is
to make the closing speech for the state,
has been quite i'll and if not able to begin
Friday further adjournment may be nee
eSSary.

In the Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l0.-Argument was con
tinued in the United States supreme court to-
day in the case of Samuel D. Davis, appellant,
against NJ. G. Beason, sheriff of Oneida county,
Idaho territory, involving the constitutionality
of the territorial laws prohibiting Mormons
from voting Davis was convicted and senten-
ced to jail in 1889 on an Indictment for con
spiracy charging him and sundry other persons
with having combined to be unlawfully admit
ted and registered as voters. Davis unlaw
full act consisted in taking the oath that he was
not member OF any organization practising the
doctrine of plural marriage, when he was IN fact
a member of the Mormon church. The case
comes here on an application for writ of
habeas corpus, on the grounds that the lnd1ct-
ments do not constitute criminal ofenses under
any law of the territory which PROMPTS mem
beers Of bodies believing in plural marriages
from voting, and that it is a law respecting an
establishment OF religion and in violation OF the
first amendment to the constitution and void

AN ABOLITIONIST.

Garrison, is Dead.

Industrial League American Federation
ofLabor-A Hunting Party Drowned

@BRooKLYN Dec. 10.-Oliver Johnson, the vet
eran editor and abolitionist, died this afternoon
at his home in this city. With Johnsons death
there departs from this world almost the last
figure of what was the greatest movement for
the emancipation of mankind. With the aid of
William Lloyd Garrison he organized the New
England Anti-Slavery society in 1892. This So
ciety led to the formation of the American
Anti Slavery society with its affiliating auxil
iaries, causing public agitation which ceased
only with the abolition of slavery. He was
mobbed once in Pennsylvania for lecturing on
slavery and narrowly escaped being tarred and
feathered. Johnson has been connected with
various prominent papers in New York, besides
publishing papers in different points in Massa-
chusetts, Pennsylvania and other states, in
which he advocated abolition.
