He has his place well by the side OF those who
have drawn those enormous profits from
mlSlnterpretation of the law. With an
audaclous assumption of superiority on his
part, he speaks of senators as not being
suited to their place-as not being entitled
to respect; and yet the senator exhibits
himself as entirely ignorant of facts.
SOMETHING ABOUT LAW.
Let me teach him little lesson. will
not try to teach him propriety. / care not
for his language or his assumption.
or his demeanor, but, as a senator,
let me seek to teach him little knowledge
about law. Having made a statement as
to the grants to Florida for railroad
purposes, and under swamp land
law, Mr.. Call proceeded: 1 have not
any reputation among the people
OF my state of having sympathy
with those who commit wrong and error in
the performance Of public duty. If the
things he says were true, and if l were as
bad a man as he is, as weak man
as he is, as vain man as
be is-even if L were all
that he is himself, and all that he says l
am, still would it remain true that large
number of people have been deprived of
their rights on these lands.
DEFENDING BooDLERs' INTERESTS
AhtCA SSoo bLltib Cdu D6 DTOulOlS1
by denying those rights are not those of
the people of the United States, not the in
terests of purity and honesty and Justice,
but the interests of a few men, who have
made, and are to make, enormous profits
out OF improper execution of the laws The
state OF Florida is the equal of any other
state Its representatives are the equals
OF the representatives of other states. I
should scorn myself with infinite scorn if [
came down to the level of manhood and
character of the senator from Kansas.
SHIFTING IT ON THE STATE.
The Senator (Mr. Cain had just told the
Senate that most of it was not swamp, but
arabic lands. So much greater was the
dereliction of the senator's state if it had
betrayed its trust He wished the senator
would say on the stump in his own state
what he had said here to-day
Without action on the resolution the SEN
ate proceeded to executive business, and at
o'clock adjourned.

Mcconnell.

Kunze Granted a New Trial by Judge
Mcconnell.
CHICAGO. Jan. 14.-Judge Mcconnell this
afternoon granted the application of Kunz
for new trial, but denied the motion as to
the other efendants-Coughlin, Burke, and

new trial had ended the court imposed SEN
tence in tho following words:
Following and confirming the verdict of the
jury, the Judgment of the court is that you be
taken TO the penitentiary at Joliet and there be
confined for the term of your natural lives.
1t was announced that Lawyers
Forrest, Donohue, and Wing had
been retained to take the case to
the supreme court at the March
term. Forrest asked the usual stay of exc
cution until supersedeas could be granted
and by that request precipitated heated
debate, the states attorney protesting Wig
orously, and demanding that the prisoners
be sent at once to Joliet.
Judge Mcconnell finally announced that
he would defer his decision until
he consulted the other judges TO
find on what authority they
acted. The judge then intimated that
If Kunz were allowed to stay in
Jail for few days he might con-
clude not to bring hm to trial
at all, but let him go. He promised to
let the court and counsel know this week,
and accordingly no effort will be made to
get Kunz out on bail In the meantime.
Tonight the three prisoners, Coughlin,
Burke, and OSullvan, were hurried to tue
train and taken to the state prison at Joliet.
The trio were handcuffed and manacled
together. The sheriff, police captain, two
officers and three deputy sheriffs constituted

Michigan Men Wondering What is in

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-Michigan men
were puzzled at first when they saw the an
nouncement to-day of the appointment Of
Geo. II. Hopkins to be collector at Detroit.
because Hopkins is a pronounced and prom
inent Alger man, having been for
Alger in 1888, and being for Alger
in 1892. No other pronounced and prom-
inent Alger man has been appointed by
this administration, but It is explained
that Hopkins was recommended by the
Michigan senators, and charged up to them
and not to Gen. Alger. 1t seems that the

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-"Boss" Buck of

mediately upon his victory over Judge
Speer of yesterday in the Macon postofice
case came his victory over Mr. Elkins in

Mr. Elkins, availing himself of his intimate
friendship with the President, had per-
suaded the latter that Mike Doyle, an
Irishman and president of protection
club, was the man to make collector of Sa-
vannah, in spite of Bucks recommendation
that ex-Collector johnson should be ap-
pointed. But Secretary Window, who has
stood by Buck all through. finally made the
President see at cabinet meeting to-day
that it would not do to disregard the
recommendation of the Georgia boss, and
SO johnson was nominated.
