KIMBALL is MISSING.
Mysterious Disappearance of a
Pipestone Butcher.

PipestOne Butcher.
Special TO the Globe.
PpEsToNE, Jan. SIS. A. Kimball,
a butcher of this city, left home over
week ago and has not been heard of
since. He told his wife he was going
into the country to purchase cattle. and,
tits said, had some $40O or $500 with
him which belonged to his employer.
Mrs. Kimball is afraid he has committed
suicide, as he was subject to crazy
spells, caused by wound in the head
received In the army, as she knows he
would not .'skip' with the money. 1t
was reported ON the streets last night
that man answering Kimball'S de-
scription had been found murdered
near Lake Benton, but the story could
not be substantiated. and Mrs. Kimball
says her husband did not go in that di-
rection. He is man about feet Z
inches in height aud weighs nearly l40
pounds, is forty-four years of age, and
when he left home was dressed in
dark brown check suit, brown overcOat
and astrachan cap. Mrs. Kimball is
nearly heart-broken over the matter, as
she has been married only about a
month. Kimball also leaves a son and
daughter by first wife, and they also
fear something has happened to their
father. or they would have at least
heard from him.

charged" Senator Pope cut off discus
sion by giving notice of debate. BUTT
was only for an hour, as towards the
end OF the session Senator Finseth
called up his tabled resolution.
The music began, amendment fol-
lowing amendments and speech follow
ing speech. Senator Pope delivered a
strongly-worded protest against the
course suggested. speaking earnestly
i'll the interest of political purity. He
was Democrat, and proud of the posi-
ton he occupied in that chamber, but
decIaimed any partisan feeling on this
question. IF there has been," he
forcib4y remarked, "any corruption
among Democrats, want it proven and
not eXpunged from the record of the
senate" Senator Ward spoke in
similar strain, and in loud tones de-
clared that senators could not suppress
the proceedings of the bribery investi-
CATION. Like Banqu0's ghost" said
the senator, with ShakeSperian ges-
ture, sit will and must rise to accuse
you. The people of the state," he COLI
tinued, ''are interested in the work of
that committee, and the report of their
investigations should not be eXpunged
from the public record of this cham
ber.''
Senator EdWards-Is the report OF
the committee part of the record OF this
body?
President Rice-It is not.
"The testimony should not be made
such a deep secret" was The opinion
enunciated by Senator Durant, who
added: Il am not interested by any par
tisan feeling, but it is my desire that
this report be made public. He moved
to amend by adding the words: ''And
that the report of the investigating
committee be reported as part of the
proceedings of the senate" Senator
Edwards objected. The ''house had
laid aside the report of their committee,
and that of the senate committee was
such a mass of allegations and contra
dctions.' no good end would be served
by casting it broadcast throughout the
state" Senator Kellar wanted the
record expunged. He waXed eloquent
in his usual grandiloquent style, and to
such white heat did he lash himself
that it resolved itself into a race of in
spiratiOn versus perspiratiol, with bad
odds Oh the latter. He denounced the
bribery charges that had been made,
and SO warmed himself into the subject
as to 'defy any Philadelphia lawyer to
convict any man Of bribery Senators
Brown and Bowen spoke briefly in fa-
vor of the publication of the report, the
latter making very sensible address.

he DOESN'T WANT THE JOB.
Senator Allison PeremptOrily De-
ciines the Secretaryship of the

Treasury.
WAsHINGToN. Jan. 31.--A prominent
Republican, who is in q position TO
speak knowingly, said tonight: 'ASena-
tor Allison to-day communicated 10 his
near friends that he had written to
the president-elect perenptorily de-
clining the appointments of seere-
tary of the treasury. There is no
doubt of the accuracy of this. 1t was
very generally believed here, for the
past Ten days, that he would accept, aud
it is know that he discussed the matter
with close friends as being settled in
this way. He had frequently expressed
in confidential manner his desire to be
in the treasury department to carry out
some views he had especially as to
inducing England TO agree to redOnetiza-
tiOn of silver. He also had desire to
show his administrative ability. The
first of the week it was felt by his near
friends, and there was good authority
for saying that he would. But whnp he
returned from Indianapolis his fellow
Republicans united in begging him not
to leave the senate and not to throw
aside his chances for presidency in
1892. Only two Republican senators,
one of them senator who thinks he
would succeed him as chairman of the
appropriations committee and the other
succeed him in another committee, have
at any time advised him. to ac-
cept. All the others, especially
the strong ones, Edmunds, H0ar,
Sherman, Wilson and all the stronger
men protested against 1t, and after his
return labored with him constantly to
induce him to decline. and to-day he de-
cided to follow their advice, and by to-
morrow's mail Gen. Harrison will have
the letter of positive declinatiOn. and it
is felt that the senator can not again
be induced to waver IN his reSO-
luton. 1t may now be accepted as
true that Iowa will have no
member of the cabinet. Mr.. ClarksOn
has been known to have been out of the
question for several weeks by his own
wish, and his name has been the only
one from Iowa really discussed besides
Allison. Mr. KaSSOn has had an ambI-
ton to be secretary of state, and he SO
stated to members of the Iowa delega-
ton, but as Mr.. Blaine was two
weeks ago rendered, and ten days
ago accepted that position, there
is no chance for Iowa in the cabinet.
This is something to be regretted. and
evidently something that could have
been avoided, but in some way things
went wrong. Iowa had cabinet officer
under Lincoln and Grant both times;
also under Hayes, Garfield and Arthur.
But under Harrison, for whom it has
done more than for any OF the others, it
is to he without representation.

possess many points of interest.
Strange as it may seem, Mr.. Page claims

stantiate the claim, that he is the

play by saying that in 1879, about the
time that the Madison square theater
in New York was approaching the fin
ish, he saw an advertisement in New
York paper. over j. Steele Mackaye's
signature, for new plays. Mr.. Mackaye
was the manager of the new theater,
and in response to his advertisement
Mr.. Page mailed to him the manuscript
of the play now called Hazel Kirl1e,''
which then bore another name. Mr..
Page waited for weeks for response,
but received none. He wrote repeat
edly concerning his play, which had.
not been copyrighted, but was wholly
ignored. He finally gave it up as an
occupant of the waste basket, and
thought no more about 1t. Two years
afterward, in an opera house in st.
Louis, he was astonished to see his own
production presented by an excellent
company, with the names of the charac-
ters somewhat changed. but the play in
the main as he wrote it. He fought
legally for his rights, but without avail,
and he is now certain that he was
robbed mercilessly of his best literary
effort. At the time the play was Writ-
ten he was teaching school in Ohio, and
since then has lived in Champion. Ill.,,

ago.
