Farmers Preferences for Presi-

The Old Ticket Of 1884 Far
in the Lead.
Opinions Expressed on Some
Other Subjects

SPRINGFIELD. Mass, Dec. 22.-An
elaborately planned canvass to ascertain
the opinions of the farmers throughout
the country on certain questions has been
conducted on an extensive scale tor the
past three months by the Agricultural
Press OF Springfield in connection with
other farming journals Of the West and
East. Nearly 10000 cards have been
received 10 answer. The questions vert
on certain practical, economical and po-
liticL Issues. including their ideas on the
tariff, government ownership of railroads
and telegraphs, etc. The final question
was who should be the Republican and
Democratic nominees for the presidency
In 1892. The answers have been fully
tabulated only so far as they relate to this
last question. but enough has been done
to show federal aid to agricultural educa
ton and the teaching OF agricultural
science in the rural public schools are
overwhelmingly endorsed.
The sentiment regarding government
ownership of railroads is quite evenly di-
vided. Many who vote against such own
ership insist on government supervision
| and full control of railroads. The views
expressed as 10 the new tariff law, recipro-
city and the proposed modification of the
national land policy are so diverse that it
will be some days before they are classi
fed. In reference to the vote for presi
Dental candidates, it is explained that the
Journals interested interpreted the No
vember elections as meaning that the
farmers were weary Of the old favorites
and old measures and demanded new men
and new issues. These journals, there
fore advocated Secretary Rusk and Con
gresham Hatch as the proper Republican
aud Democratic standard bearers in 1892
10 spite of this, however, the farmers ex-
pressed their pref renee for presidential
candidates in the following manner:

WAsHINGroN, Dec. 22.-The whole
city is laughing tonight over a story told
in this evenings Star. OF how a smart
confidence mar in Baltimore has been
victimizing the grave and diRnifed
United States senators within the past
three weeks. This man, who goes by
the name OF VIM. Duvall, has been writ
ing different senators hat the first born
son in his family has been named after
them, aud enclosing the baptismal certli-
cate. The letter states that he has been
so unfortunate as to break a leg; that his
fellow workmen have gotten up an enter
tainment for his benefit, and would the
senator be so kind as to take the enclosed
five tickets, at 81 each, and remit. Mr..
Duvall would undoubtedly have been
working the senate yet if be had not, I'M
fortunately, decided on Saturday to
make a victim of Senator Mander-
son, of Nebraska. 1t so happened
that Senator Henderson had seen a SINH
lar certificate a few days ago in which the
name Of this same first born son was de-
clared to be Justin Morrill, Duvall. and he
likewise knew that the venerable senator
from Vermont had torn S. from his sal
airy and sent it to the suffering father in
Baltimore. Convinced that if Mrs. Du-
vail could be the mother of two first born
children, she might have birth to few
more at the same time. Henderson insti-
tuted an investigation, the result of which
caused much laughter in the senate today,
which was very mystifying TO the galleries
until the story came out. According to
the certificates which have been uucov-
cred. the following senators have been
worked. Dolph. Evarts. Higgins,
Carlisle. Paddock, Squire, VOL
colt, Edmunds. Pettigrew, Power.
Stanford, Sawyer, Stockbridge, Blair,
Hoar, Hale, Washburn. West and His
cock. There are those about the senate
who say there arc several other newly born
Duvslls, among them John Sherman Du-
vail, Matthew Stanley Quay DuvaIl, and
Arthur German Duvall, but the gentle
men thus honored insist that they have
not been called upon. 1t Is understood
that several of the senators, besides send
ing So, also sent the little one a silver
mug, spoon or some other token, The
vice president did not escape. There is q
Levi Morton Duvall ard he. or his father,
own a nice silver cup appropriately in
scribed. 1t ia probable that proceedings
will be instituted against Duvall notwith-
standing the great size of his family and
the added disability Of broken leg.

Kilkenny, Dec. 22.-In Kilkenny
the polling passed Of quietly. Timothy
Harrington says priestly coercion was
exercised in North Kilkenny and hat the
Parnellites have good ground to contest
the validity of Hennessy's election should
he be returned.
In an interview this evening Parnell
said be expected the majority would be
small whichever party won. lie hoped
the bitterness of language that marked
the contest will be forgotten. His eyes
are much better. Dzvitt this evening
said he was confident Hennessy majority
would be 900.
LONDON, Dec. % "A dispatch from
Kilkenny to the Daily Neios says there is
not the slightest doubt that Hennessy is
elected by at least 500 majority.

CHICAGO, Dec. 22.-Suits were begun
today by a number Of other depositors in
Kean's bank who want the amount of
their deposits returned on the ground hat
the bank was insolvent when the deposits
were made. At the present rate, if all
the claims of persons who made deposits
within thirty DAYS before the suspension
are allowed, they promise to eat up nearly
all the assets to the exclusion of the other
creditors. The assets continue to grow
less. 1t is now estimated that the bills
receivable, scheduled at $270.000, will not
realize 500, 600. An investigation OF the
banks books shows further that Mrs.
Culver's account was overdrawn SO. 800,
aud Morton Culver's account Sc, 600.
Morton Culver appeared in court this
morning and testified that Mrs. Culver
had an interest in the bank to the amount
of $37, 900, and as far as he knew there

on which the bank was only able to realize

BY a man named Hanchett simply as &C

that Rean had included these accommo-
dation securities in his statement of assets
to the commercial agency. 1t appeared,
according to the testimony of Cashier
Warne, that Kean had renewed paper for
over $4,000. the only security being land
contracts. The books also showed that
kean had discounted his own paper for
s32, 900 and his wife's for $4,000.

CHICAGO. Dec. 22.-Railroad mana
gers are alarmed at the possibility of a
serious strike among western switchmen.
The western roads were to have given an
answer today to the demands Of the
switchmen that all men, wherever
employed. be paid according to
the Chicago scale. At the request of the
railroad managers the roads we're given
until Tuesday to consider. The switch
men say that an answer must be forth
coming on hat date. There are strong
indications that if the demand is refused
there will be a general strike of all switch
men between Chicago and the Rocky
mountains. The demand is supported by
the union, and Frank Sweeney. chief Of
the ~switchmen's largest organization, Is IN
full sympathy with the men.
