HON. S. J. RANDALL DEAD,
He Passes Peacefully Away at His
Washington Home.

He Passes Peacefully Away at His
Washington Home.
WASHINGTON, Special. It was a sad and
touching scene at the Randall residence on
Capitol hill when Congressman Samuel J.
Randall expired this morning, just as the
bells of neighboring church were tolling
S o'clock. Mr.. Randall's death was pain
less and he was unconscious during the
greater part of his last hours. There were
intervals when, from the intelligent and
steady gaze which he directed at those
about him, he must have been conscious
but he seemed unable to speak, and the
word Mother was the only one he
uttered for hours preceding his death.
Samuel jackson Randall was one Of the many
born In Philadelphia, Oct. 10, 1925 the son of
an eminent lawyer of that city. His mothers
maiden name had been Ann Worrall, and she
was the daughter of James Worrall, a Demo-
cratic leader in the days OF Jefferson, so that
the ex-speaker may be said to have been tradi-
tionally q Democrat as well as by conviction q
rage, Mr.. Randall was connected with New
York State his wife being a daughter OF Gen.
Aaron Ward. Of Sing Sing. His first position
council OF Philadelphia, wherein he showed
marked ability. and was soon transferred
to the senate OF his native state: The beginning
OF the civil war, In his thirty third year,
prompted Mr. Randall to patriotic military
service IN the Light Horse Of Philadelphia. His
service under Gen. George H. Thomas for ninety
days, and under the command of Gen. Robert
Patterson followed, leading to his promotion
first as quartermaster of his company and then
as cornet, a rank corresponding to that Of
captain in the regular army. In the terrible
year 1868, Cornet Randall was among the
troops advanced to Harrisburg as the result of
Gen. Lees invasion of Northern territory.
When Gen. Couch announced to Cornet
Randall commanding Gov
would accept the active services of
his troops without swearing it's members, he
said: II know we can trust to the honor of
of the same year the cornet made brilliant re-
connaissance, in which he captured several
prisoners and established the presence OF the

confederates In force between Chambersburg and
williamsport. During the battle Of Gettys-
burg his rank was that OF Provost
Marshal OF Columbia. He entered the
and kept his seat in the house of representatives
ever since that time. He served in the commit
tees ON appropriations, public buildings and
grounds, banking and currency. retrenchment
and expenditures in the state department..
Mr.. Randall was a ready, concise speaker,
without rhetorical affectations He was elected
speaker IN 1876, and held the position until the
election of J. w: Keller. He was an outspoken
advocate of a judiciously adjusted protective
Tariff and never wavered from his position ex-
cept when monopoly and not protection was the
object sought to be attained: The free. trade
papers were unanimous i'll their antagonism to
his candidacy for speaker OF the Forty-eighth
congress, and Carlisle OF Kentucky was chosen
to the position. In the early part of 1885 Mr..
Randall made q tour OF the South, and was re-
ceived with much enthusiasm. Mr.. Randall was
q man who would attract attention in any COM
pany, and was OF extremely imposing appear
ance. He was q little above medium height, but
age. He was broad-shouldered and loose
hmbed. Wearing no beard and always close
shaver, his Napoleonic face was almost as
smooth as child's: His eyes were large,
black and piercing But his most prominent
feature was his mouth. which. while inclined to
smile and reveal a fine set of teeth, shut with o
snap and assumed the firmest sort Of expression
under the impulse of atagonism. The sunshine
his countenance was obscured in an instant by
q cloud as black as thunder. The massive
lower jaw was thrust forward, the thin lips closed,
was thrust forward in q defiant fashion. 1t was
q compile transformation, and when Mr.. Randall
was in this ugly mood friend and foe were
equally liable to suffer from the displeasure of
the MON emit. Very different did he look as
he sau,.tered down Pennsylvania ave
nue. or rat in his sparsely furnished study with q
few chosen friends talking over the affairs OF the

UNAVOIDABLE SHOWING.

Recent Frosts Cut Down the Per-
centage in the Condition OF Winter
Wheat.
WASHINGTON, Special.-The condition
of winter wheat on the first of April,
as reported by the statistician of the
department of agriculture, averages II
for the entire breadth. Thegeneral average
for rye is 928. In the states of the central
valleys, recent frosts have cut down the
growing wheat plants quite generally, and
in wet or submerged areas the roots have
been destroyed. There are reports of re,
cuperatlon by sprouting, and renewed
growth in this region. Where the roots are
intact, great improvement will follow, with
good weather. The fact that the roots are so
well developed is favorableto improvement;
The averages OF condition of principal
states are as follows: New York, 8S; Penn
sylvania, 90; Ohio, 81; Michigan, 81; In
diana, IS; Illinois, IS; Missouri, SO; Kansas,
81; California, II. The report of the cen
dltion of farm animals makes the averages
as follows: Horses 97.4; cattle, 94.1; sheep,
93.7; swine, 95.6. The percentage of losses
OF farm animals by disease, winter exposure
or otherwise, as estimated, average 1.64 for
horses, 1854 for cattle, 7.3 for sheep and rs
for swine The reports indicate the loss by
exposure throughout the country of more
than 1000, 900 cattle and still larger losses
of sheep.

modore Miller were arrested on the charge
Of perpetrating series Of startling crimes;
Charles Miller turn ed states evidence, and
not only confessed that he and his partner
robbed the Texas & Pacific express messen-
ger, but also confessed that they had a..
saulted white woman. robbed stores and
residences and held up pedestrians on the
public highway. relieving, them OF Their
valuables. The case has been tried from
time to time but always without coming to
any conviction or acquittal. Commodore
has always, until to-day, maintained that
he was innocent, but when he learned that
his brother was to be nolle pressed he broke
down and confessed to the sheriff and his
attorney that they were guilty of not only
all the crimes in which Charles had turned
states evidence of but more. On receipt OF
this intelligence action in the case of both
prisoners was deferred until the 18th, when
more sensational developments are ex-
pected.

DONATIONS FOR STATES.
A Bill Which May Put MANY Dollars
Into State Treasures.

A Bill Which May Put MANY Dollars
Into State Treasures.
WASHINGTON. Special Telegram,
The senate to-day passed bill which
will, if it becomes law, make a number
of the Northwestern states richer by several
hundred thousand dollars each. 1t pro-
vides that the act which settled certain &C
counts between the United States and Mis-
sissippi shall be made applicable to
the States of Minnesota, Oregon, Kansas,
Nebraska, Nevada, Colorado North ana
South Dakota, Montana and Washington
This act gave the State of Mississippi S per
cent of the proceeds of all present and
former Indian reservations as if sold at
$1.25 per acre. The effect of the act is to
put Indian reservations in the same class as
public" lands, 50 far as this s per cent do
nation is concerned. Under the terms of
this act Minnesota will derive from the
Chippewa lands alone $175, 600 on the basis
now stands there are other lands which
have formerly been Indian reservations
which will swell the amount to some
what larger figures. The acts directs the
commissioner of the general land Office to
state an account between the several states
and the United States and certify it to the
secretary of the treasury tor settlement. He
is to pay it directly from the unappro-
priated moneys rather than from the actual
proceeds of the sale of the lands, for by the
terms of the acts under which the Indians
cede their lands to the government the en-
tire proceeds are to be held by the govern
ment in trust for the Indians and could not
be available for donations to the state.
