prevented by the superior forces at the
command of Gov. Byrd, who so over
awed the disfranchised whites that,
after some display of arms, they pru-
dently withdrew Stonewali was the
largest voting place, and was the center
of interest in the election. Both the
candidates for governor. Sam Paul and
William Byrd, were at the polls all day.
Each had a large number of men athiS
back. Paul's supporters were the dis
franchised whites, while the full-bloods
and most of the half-breeds were
for Byrd. The latter also
had ia militia under his
pay. Everybody was heavily armed,
and when the polls opened matters
looked serious. Gov. Byrd brought the
militia about the polls, forming q circle
about it. The first squaw man was re-
tired. The whites gathered their forces,
and for time it looked as if they meant
battle, but Byrd with his militia stood
firm, and the whites, seeing that they
would be wOrsted in a fight, left. and
Byrd and his militia ran things to suit
themselves. and even prevented Indians
from voting whom they knew were for
Paul The result of the vote was: 106
for Byrd, 6 for Paul and 15 for Burris,
independent. Enough is known to as
sure Byrd's election and the success OF
the SO-cailed Indian party, but their
election is bound to be contested.

Upon this action the delegations from

Talk Of the State.
The Democratic convention yesterday
is the talk of the state. The general
opinion is that there will be no split in
the party, and that the action of the
convention yesterday settled nothing
but the question of the manner of elect
ing delegates to the September conven-
tiOn. The News and Courier will say
tomorrow:
'sWith anything like organization and
proper activity on the part of the straight
out Democrats it will be practicable to Sc
cure clear majority in the September con-
vention against Tillman. II is with this OBJ
ject in view that the straightouts should Or
ganiZe and work"
The Daily Sun, the Tillman organ,
says:
ITO sum up the results of the convention,
there will be no primary for 1890. There
will be a primary for 1892. A reform ex-
ecutive committee with Tillman compleionx
has been substituted for the old orthodox
committee. There will be no split or bolt III

ROCHESTER,. Minn., Aug. 1.-THE
work of preparation for the eleventh
annual Southern Minnesota fair, to be
held Sept. to 6is now going on briskly
at the fair grounds. The buildings have
all been repainted, and some extensive
improvements made. The work on the
grain palace in the main building has
been under way for the past week un-
der the direction of an expert from La
Crosse; large crew of men is at work.
and it will be hurried on to completion.
At a meeting of the association last
evening, 1t was decided to open the
fair with an old-fashioned barbecue.
Roast OK. pigs and sheep will be served
free to the crowd. This will be made
grand jollification day, and it is intend
ed to make it an old settlers reunion
day, and bring together the first
settlers of the state. Other
drawing features are being arranged
for and will probably be announced in
a few days. The management report
that applications of persons intending
to exhibit are greater in number this
year than ever before at this season,
and that there is no doubt that every
foot of available space will be occupied,
and that the prospect of good eXhibi-
ton in all departments is most favor
able. The sport at the track bids fair
to be the best ever seen here, especially
in the colt races, in which there is a
very large number of entries. These
colt races, particularly the pacing race,
have aroused unprecedented local in
terest. The association has made ar
rangements with the various railway
companies to carry all visitors to and
from the fair at half rates. Special
stock trains will be run from Rochester
to the state fair grounds at Hamline, SO
that those wishing to exhibit at both
places can do so.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-The fourth
in the series of Republican senatorial
caucuses was held at the capitol to-
night, and was as Intellectual as any OF
the preceding caucuSeS so far as definite
results are concerned. 1t was the most
important caucus yet held. the most
largely attended and the more pointed
in the matter of speeches made. Thirty
nine senators we're present, and,
with the exception of Senator
Cullom, who was Ill, ana
Senator Sawyer, every one remained
until adjournment-a very unusual
proceeding. There was an extreme
diversity of views manifested, and the
caucus adjourned simply because an
agreement was impossible. 1t was
very inharmonlouS meeting. Senators
QUAY and Cameron both made speeches
and strongly represented the political
inexpediepcy of doing anything with
the federal election bill at present,
and urged the necessity OF an early
adjournment from party standpoint.
Senator Aldrich, also on the side OF
those who desire an adjournment, was
the spokesman for those senators who
view the embarrassment and delay over
the tariff bill as outweighing all other
considerations in deciding the policy to
be pursued. Senator Plumb also spoke
and it is understood,
Opposed the Election Bill
out and out. For the trends of the bill
which has caused these numerous eau
cuses Senators Hoar and Spooner were
the champions. The latter made
strong speech, which some denominated
''reading the riot act" He warned SEN
atorS that they must meet the issue
souarely. The election bill must De
passed now at this session or not at all.
1t would be futile to go before the
country with any statement that
this bill would be passed at
the short session. 1t was
of supreme Importance that it should be
passed at once. His remarks brought
out sharp retortS from several OF the
opponents of the bill. The discussion
showed that there was a greater num-
Der of senators than has been generally
supposed who for one reason or an
other are willing to adjourn without the
election bill being acted upon.
The number of those senators is
placed at fifteen. Finally, about 1O:90.
an adjournment was proposed and was
finally forced by majority vote. This
was the only vote taken. A general
understanding prevailed among the SEN
ators that nothing should be given to
the public as to the caucus, and they re-
ferred all newspaper men to Senator
Edmunds, who is well known as an op-
ponent OF publicity in such matters.

Terre Haute's Ex-City Treasurer
Feathered His Nest.

Feathered His Nest.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. Aug. 14.-In
connection with general exposure of
the shortage of ex-City Treasurer Fitz-
patrick, the Express, in the morning,
will say: The finance committee of the
city council, with the city attorney and
city clerk, have been engaged for a
week going over the books of CITY
Treasurer Fitzpatrick for his last term
OF two years ending in September 1889.
They have found shortage of 50. 400
and suit will at once be brought against
his bondsmen to recover this amount.
A resolution will also be introduced in
the council meeting next Tues
day night authorizing an invest
lgatiOn of his first term of two years,
preceding the second term, enough IN
formation and facts being now at hand
to warrant the belief that there may be
a like amount short. Jimmy Fitz-
patrick was a popular young Irish
man whose pleasing ways when
a deputy in the county auditors office
made him an invincible candidate in
1885 for city treasurer. In 1887 he was
reelected by an increased majority, and
in 1888 he was the chairman of the DEM
0cratlc county committee in the ma
tional campaign. when the politics
were blOodthirsty in this part of
HoOsierdom. There were those who then
believed that he used public funds
for political ends and in the spring Of
'S9, when he secured the denomination
for third term, there was general
suspicion that politics and the office had
been too closely Identified, and he was
defeated. The investigation just
concluded shows that he be-
gan his stealings four months
after he went into office. His
method was to collect taxes, and. falling
to credit the taxpayer. drop the
name from the delinquent list. In other
instances he kept money paid in for
public improvements. Fitzpatrick is
now president of the Inter-
state Base Ball league, and re-
turned from st. Louis to-day,
where he had been trying to settle the.
affairs of the league and of Terre
Haute's part especially, the Terre
Haute club having dropped out. He
was officially notified ten days ago
of the proceeding against him, but
Is apparently indifferent Some
of his bondSmen tonight say
that he is the nerviest man they ever
knew; that he apparently attaches no
Importance to what they realize is the
serious and criminal situation he is in.
1t is also thought he will not be found
in the city at daylight.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE director
of the mint said this afternoon that he
expects to purchase 100000 ounces OF
silver tomorrow, and that he expects
also 70 pay a trihe more than the Lon
don market rate for it. He defended
the policy of refusing to make public
the exact price the department pays for
silver. and SAID he considered that he
was serving the best interests of the
government in so doing. The prices
paid for silver, he said, had never been
m de public heretofore. so there was no
new departure in the matter. He con-
tinued: There will be no attempt on
the part of the treasury department to
buy silver cheap or to beat down the
price. The government will pay the
full market price, and will buy 4,500, 900
ounces month, if it is to be had. The
administration desires to see the price
of silver advance, and there will be no
attempt in the execution of the new law
