In refutation of a similar lie which
has been circulated about Hon. Sam.
Byrns in this section, we reproduce
the following from the Jefferson Dam
Ocrdt:
The Republicans of this district were afraid
they would not recognize their own campaign
if they did not eject some falsehoOds into it,
and so they set their wits to work to evolve
something against Sam ByrnS. Sans life
and history are well known in the district
that it was very hard to think up anything
that anybody would believe; bat finally the
assertion was made that somewhere or some
where else he cursed the Dutch. The time
and occasion has been variously stated, but
as yet the witness who will risk swearing to
it has not been found. The names of several
persons of this county, who have been re-
ported as hearing the offensive language,
have been mentioned, but when approached
bv Mr.. Byrns' friends they all deny having
heard anything of the kind. Such foolish
lies won't work. The people want Il live
Representative, not 4 dummy, and hence
they will vote for Sam.

shipper of goods into this country
pays the tariff, wouldn't it be good
plan to raise all our taXes-state and

Warmoth's Nomination Confirmed
Notes From Committee Rooms, Etc.

The Senate spent most of its time in execu-
tive session today discussing the nomination Of
ex-Gov. II. c. Warmoth to be collector Of the
port of New Orleans. Senator Eustis of Louisi-
ana was the first speaker. He approved the
committees favorable report and eulogized the
nominee highly. He was followed by Senators
Sherman and Vest who opposed the confrma-
ton. Senator Frye, chairman Of the commit
tee on commerce, closed the debate and is
said to have made strong presentation of the
case in favor of Warmoth. The vote on advis-
ing and consenting to the appointment stood
ayes 39, nays IA Gov. Warmoth received the
votes Of all the republican Senators in the
chamber except those of Sherman, Farwell
and Wilson OF Iowa. Seven democrats, led by
MIR. EustIs, also voted for confirmation.

Will There Be Ten Clubs in the League
This Year?

All base ball eyes are now turned in the di-
rection Of Cleveland and all ears are listening
for the first indications of that news which the
spring meeting of the league is expected to
produce. Judging from the dispatch contained
in yesterdays STAR and from the supplemental
reports from the Weddell house of this morn
ing there is a redundancy of confidence and a
general feeling of contentment that is rather
encouraging to the league lovers, and especi-
ally to those who abide within reach of the
shadow of the dome.
The Philadelphia Press has special beginning
in this wise: whether the league shall consist
o.eight clubs or ten next season depends entirely
upon one man and if he continues to hold the
same views up to this time tomorrow night
that he held today when the Press correspond
ent talked with him, its continuance as a ten
club organization is assured beyond the shadow
OF doubt That man is John i. Brush and he
announces that he is in the league to stick"
The ten-club idea Is strengthened by the
growing belief that John b. Day could not take
all Of the Hoosiers to New York, for there are
several OF them who say they would rather 60
to the brotherhood than to New York.
The Ward case came up before the New York
supreme court yesterday and resulted in a tenn
porary postpOnement.
Dunlap and HanlOn are at odds, the former
declaring that the latter had no right to release
him. He thinks the brotherhood a success, but
says that he will not lack for an engagement.
as certain league club stands ready to sign
him at any time.
The Brooklyn league and brotherhood and
the Philadelphia brotherhood teams sailed for
the south yesterday.

The Supreme Court Sustains the SEM
tence Against KiIrain.

Special to the Baltimore American.
The supreme court OF Mississippi affirmed the
decision OF the lower or circuit court in the
case Of Jake Kilrain for prize lighting. The
decision was two months imprisonment in the
county Jail and 600 fine. The case was ably
argued by kirain's attorneys, who dwelt upon
the fact that their client had been the loser in
tine fight and was out of pocket as well rs badly
injured. But their arguments did not seem to
have the slightest effect. Kilrain is now at Hot
Springs. Ark, out on bond. He will have to
surrender to the Mississippi authorities unless
he wishes them to come after him to be taken
to Purvis to serve out his term. The punish
ment is not likely to be severe, as Kilrain will
probably be brought in by Rich or some other
friend, and have an easy time of it. He will
simply have to remain a couple months in
Marion county, and he has already spent some
time there. and declared that he liked it very
well. An effort was made at the last session of
the Mississippi legislature to confine the county
prisoners in the Jail during their term of inn
prisonment, but 1t failed
kllrain Is quite popular in Marion county and
is likely to fare well there. His friends in New
Orleans propose to get up a petition IN his
favor, asking the governor to remit the impris-
onment feature, or at least reduce it. There q
little chance Of success, however, as Gov Stone
is known to be very much opposed to pardons
or reprieves.
The appealed case of John L. Sullivan, under
sentence to one years imprisonment in the
county Jail. was also argued and admitted A
decision will be rendered Monday and there
seems to be every reason for believing, judging
from the decision in the Kilrain case today,
that the Judgment of the lower court will be
affirmed and Sullivans sentence sustained

SIXTEENTH STREET EXTENSION.
Capt. ROssell's Recommendation Con.
corning This Important Thoroughfare.

Recently THE STAR referred to the two pro-
posed amendments to the District appropria-
ton bill submitted to the Commissioners for
their views. One amendment contemplated
the removal of the stand pipe from 10th street
extended and the substitution of the Holly
system of water supply for the District west of
the east line of 14th street extended at cost
OF 10000, while the other proposed the loca-
ton, establishment. opening grading and reg
ulation OF 10th street extended from Florida
avenue north at a cost of S35, 900.
CAPT. RossELL's REPORT.
The matter was referred to the engineer de-
partment for report. Capt. Rossell today sub
mits his views on the amendments above cited. In
relation to the extension OF 10Th street he says
1t Is undoubtedly very good thing to have
that street extended ON its present line. He
thinks, however, the wording Of the proposed
amendment vague, as no limits are given
between which this is to be done, and the
amount of money is not sufficient to do all
things required, except for very
short distance. Continuing, he says: ''For
example, if 10th street is to be extended on its
present line to Piney branch l doubt if the
amount OF money herein provided for (S35 ,000)
is sufficient to pay for the land alone. Yet it
would seem proper to open this line as far as
the Plney Branch road. 1t seems to me, how
ever. that the Commissioners should approve
this measure, as it is a step in the right direc-
ton, adding to it that the line shall extend as
far as the Columbia road, at least. There may
be enough money herein provided to locate
and grade the street this far. / doubt if any,
thing more can be done with the $4,000. The
Commissioners will report upon the amend
ments at an early day, basing their views on
the above report"

Newspaper Men on the Anxious Bench
Executive Secrets Will Leak Out.

The Senate smelling" committee was not in
session yesterday and the newspaper men now
under arrest breathe with comparative free
dom. Today they are obviously happy; tomor-
row they may be prisoners In some luxuriously
furnished committee room, eating the best
the Senate restaurant can furnish and having a
generally miserable time. There are a number
Of newspaper men who have openly stated that
the committee knows too much to subpoena
them, and it really seems as though this was
DO, for the authors of many interesting para
graphs revealing the true inwardness of secret
session proceedings have not been called upon
to testify. 1t was supposed by the committee
that most of the men already called. if not all
of them, would refuse to give any ones conf
dence away, and no attempt has been made to
put the senatorial thumbscrews on others who
know just as much, but who might testify to
the lapses of some of the gentlemen who now
sit in judgment on the press. The committee
will meet once more at o'clock today.

CITY AND DISTRICT.
AN ASSISTANT SECRETARY OFwAR
M. John Tweedale Spoken of as
Likely to Get the Office.

The hnal passage in the House on Saturday
81 the act to create the Office OF assistant secre-
tary OF war has set the gossip tongues wagging
wound the War department guessing the name
OF the new man, should the President sign the
Dill, as there seems 70 be no reason to doubt
that he will There are two or three names
that have been mentioned from time to time
that are not altogether guesses in the air. but
are founded on strong possibilities. Foremost
among these is that of Mr.. John Tweedale, who
has been chief clerk of the department for
many years, and who has earned many good
friends during that time by his geniality and
thorough acquaintance with the business of the
department. 1t seems to be the general i'm
PRECISION that 1t was the idea of Secretary
Proc tor, IN asking for this officer. to make him
in large degree u permanency, removed from
the influences of political change, in order to
give himself and his successors an assistant
who could take from their shoulders much of
the work that is in the nature of routine. and
thus enable them to pay more attention to the
more important affairs OF the department. and
this belief has encouraged the idea that MIR.
Tweedale is in the direct line of promotion.
OTHER POSSIBILITIES.
Among the other names are those of Private
Secretary Partridge and Capt Ainsworth, sur
geon, now in charge of the pension work of the
department II is not very likely that Mr..
Partridge would want such place. for it was
more a favor to the Secretary that he came
down here to be his private secretary than
from any other motive. He is a comparatively
young man, a lawyer, and has prospects at his
home that would be spoiled by the acceptance
of anything like permanent situation here
DIR. AinswOrth is considered thoroughly WELL
qualified man in every respect, but is In de-
gree out of the question from the fact of his
rank army officer. There is a feeling
abroad against the increase of the influence of
service men in the administration of the affairs
of the War department. and the appointment
of an officer to a civil post, even though he
would be obliged to drop his rank would be a
direct impulse to this feeling. and it is under
stood that Secretary Proctor feels the necessity
of increasing the civil influence in his official
neighborhoOd

A Story About a Likely Candidate for
the Bureau of Yards and Docks.

As usual whenever a good-sized billet be-
comes vacant in the army or the navy there is
a great deal of gossip rife just at present over
the question Of who is to succeed to the posi-
ton Of chief Of the bureau of yards and
docks, made vacant by the death of Commo-
dore White last week. There are several
names mentioned already, although the dead
mans funeral occurred only yesterday.
Among these names is that Of Capt Geo.
Leary, who Is now on waiting orders, having
served Tor some time at sea in command Of the
Adams, which was stationed at Samoa during
the recent troubles there. Capt Leary is
known In the navy an excellent officer and is
generally thought to be worthy of some such
Preferment- A story of his shrewdness and
skill came to the ears of STAR reporter yes
terday and Is well worth printing even if it
does relate to bygone period. Leary was then
IN command on the Adams, although his orders
Tor detachment had been mailed from Wash
1ngton and were on their way to him. One day
he received information that led him to believe
that IL was the intention of the commander of

harbor during the night and going around to a
point on the other side of the island there

The situation was then very much strained
each commander watching the other like the
traditional Cat and mouse and such an intima-
non as this was very important news to the
American sailor. So he unostentatiously sent
WORD ashore for every man TO be on board ship
before shutdown, took every possible precau-
mons against raising the suspicious of the
enemy-for that was about the character of the

Just as soon as the Olga. Guns were wiped and
ammunition was brought up on deck, fires were
laid and so banked that there was no suspicion
OF smoke around the stacks. the large blocks
OF the anchor-raising apparatus were oiled and
the crew instructed to remain below decks nm
til the proper signal was given. Late at night
an unusual stir was seen on board the Olga. n
slight trace of smoke came from the tunnels
and there were unmistakable appearances that
left no doubt that Capt Learys information
was correct Then began the counter move OF
the Adams. The anchor was hoisted with every
possible precaution, link by link coming up
from the water In a slow procession until the
huge mass of metal was hoisted up on the
deck and the ship began to drift out of the
harbor just as the Olga's prov was turned out
70 the open sea- Then word was sent down the
line and in q minute the decks of the Adams
were full of men. each one at his post, ready
Tor hot work, and the screw was churning the
water at q business-like rate. As soon as il
became apparent to the Olgas captain that his
scheme was discovered he turned his ship and
cropped anchor again, and never again did be
