effect on Jan. 1, 1892. Although it is emphat-

relIabte. Mr.. Dickinson is the able repre-
sentative of his department at Tacoma, and is
regarded as very capable man and worthy

Life.

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis, Dec. o.
Nellie LaBourd, alias Mrs. Theo.
Rounds, of Staples Mills, Mimi, COM
mitted suicide in this city today by TAX
ing poison. The unfortunate woman
came bere about two weeks ago as the
wife of TheO. Rounds, and the two took
apartments at one of our SecOnd-class
boarding houses, but the proprietor
soon discovered that all was not right
and caused them to leave. They then
took up quarters in a French boarding
house, where the shocking affair took
place last night. 1t seems that Nellie
had visited saloon or two during her
pal'S absence and was the worse
for liquor when she came home at
midnight. They qUarreled, and Rounds
left the house, saying he would not re-
turn, whereupOn the woman swallowed
about two ounces of laudanum. 1t was
some time before a doctor was sum-
moned, and then too late. The unfor-
tunate woman fingered i'll terrible agony
from O'Clock in the morning until
nearly noon, when she died q frightful
death. 1t will be remembered that
Rounds is the man who was pardoned
by Gov. Hoard less than two years ago,
after having served about seven years
at Waupun for the killing of Clarity,
at Hudson, this state, for which he was
sentenced to twenty years. The cor
oner's jury found verdict of suicide.

REMINGToN's MIND WEAK.
So Testifies DR.. Moore, of the
jamestown Asylum.


Special to the Globe.
FARGO, n. D., Dec. 9.-In the district
court today the enIire time was con-
sumed in the introduction of evidence
as to the sanity of Joseph Remington,
defendant in the celebrated murder
case. DR.. Dwight S. Moore, assistant
physician in the jamestown insane asy-
lum, testified that he had made
careful examination of Rem
ington's condition, and it was his
firm belief that the prisoner is now
and was at the time of the homicide out
of his right mind and therefore an ire
SpOnsible agent. DR.. Moore was kept on
the stand until late in the afternoon,
but cross examination did not mate
rally change his evidence. Frank Phil
lips SwOre that he had known Reming-
ton seven years. and that he was subject
to Authorizations and was somnambu-
list. Other witnesses were pro-
duced by the state who swOre
that during the time they knew
defendant they had never known
him to be suffering from mental de-
rangement. DR.. ShurlOck, of Fargo,
testified that from his observation of
the prisoner in the court room he had
discovered no evidence of insanity. He
was still on the stand when court adj
jOurned. 1t is thought that the exam
inatiOn of the witness will be continued
tomorrow forenoon. Opinion seems to
be that through DR.. MOOre'S testimony
Remington will get off with a, long
term in states prison.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-After the ap-
prevail of the journal of yesterdays
proceedings in the house the committee
appointed TO wait upon the president,
through IFS chairman, Mr.. Blount, Of
Georgia, informed the speaker that it
had performed the duty imposed upon
it, and that the president would send a
communication in writing. A recess
was taken for fifteen minutes. After
the recess. DOOrkeeper Turner per-
formed his first public duty in his new
field of labor by announcing the pres
ence of Mr.. Pruden, one of the presi-
dents secretaries. Mr.. Pruden deliy-
cred the annual message of the
president, which was Immediately
read by the clerk. During the
reading many of the members
left the hail and those who remained at
tended TO their correspondence or ell
gagged in merry. and, at times, hilarious
conversation. The only men who
showed any interest were Messrs. Her
bert (Ala.), Miller (Wis.). and Otis and
Simpson, OF Kansas. On the compile
ton of the reading, the mesSages was,
on motion of Mr.. Cultivate, of Ohio,

Mr.. Miller, of Wisconsin, offered a
resolution requesting the speaker, in
appoi hitting the committees, to appOr-
Ii Oh the same among the several states
and territories, according to population,
and to appoint at least a chairman from
each state and territory. Mr.. Milliken,
of Maine, Sarcastically expressed the
hope that the speaker would not be en-
barrassed by any new rules. On mo-
ton the resolution was referred to the
committee on rules, when appointed.
On motion of Mr.. Holman, the house
then adjourned until Saturday, with
the understa nding that further adj
journment should be then taken until
Wednesday.
Immediately after the reading of the
journal in the senate Mr.. Sherman,
from the joint committee to wait on the
president of the United States and in

send a communication in writing. Ten
minutes afterwards the annual message
of the president was presented by Sec

The reading of the message closed at

SENATE PLUMS.
An Outline of the Possible Distri-
button.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-ln the senate
the only contest likely to be expected
is one relating to a committee of minor
importance-that of the library, where
at least three senators, Stockbridge of
Michigan, Dixon of Rhode Island, and
WOlcOtt of Colorado, are anxious to sue
coed the late chairman, Senator EvartS.
A struggle is possible, however, over
the vacancy OH the appropriations COM
mite caused by Senator FarWel's re-
tiremeDt, inasmuch as place on this
committee is of much more i'm
pOrtance locally than on other COM
mitteeS, as it is supreme in
the matter of expenditure of the public
moneys. but beyond the fact that the
place will probably go TO one of the
new far Western senators, there is no
visible determination. Senator Mitchell,
who has been chairman of the railroad
committee for two terms, expects to fill
Senator SpoOner's place as chairman of
the committee on claims, and he is
likely to get it without much Opposi-
ton. Senator McMilliR, of Michigan,
will probably assume the craftsmanship
of the committee on the District of
Columbia vacated by Senator ingalls,,
but this may require him to relinquish
his present Craftsmanship on the manu-
features committee. which will naturally
pass to Senator Quay.
Senator Casey, of North Dakota, is as
good as booked for Senator MItchell'S
present position of chairman of the COM
mlttee on railroads, as be has had no
craftsmanship since he entered the sem
ate. Possibly Senator Wilson, of Iowa,
though member of several hard
worked committees, may be induced to
accept the Craftsmanship of the commit
tee On education vacated by Senator
Blair. as he stands next in order of pro-
motion, bat this would result in holding
two chairmanships, and it NAV reason
ably be expected that this rather unde-
sirable place will be handed over to
new senator.
Senator Hoar goes by order and by
preference to the head of the Judiciary
committee, vice Edmunds, resigned.
Senator Teller takes his place as chair
man Of the committee on privileges and
elections, and places Senator Plat ia
position 10 take the lead in the patents
committee. There is some talk of Civ
ing Senator PETER place on the agri-
cultural committee. Some politics are
involved in this, and it may be that the
Alliance senator may secure more de
Slra5le place as result of the efforts of
the Republican and the Democratic
managers to keep him on their respect
i've sides.
Nobody has undertaken as yet to as
sign Senator Kyle. the South Dakota
Alliance senctor, but the expressed
views of Mir. 1rby, the South Carolina
Alliance senator, have caused him to be
assigned to the minority representation.

HOUSE EMPLOYEES.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The struggle
for minor offices and places about the
house continues. Fully two-thirds of
the employees of the house in the FIftieth
congress are here expecting to be rein
stated to their former positions. The
house during the last few years has re-
turned to its early practice of retaining
skilled and experienced employees in
important positions. which has been the
almost uniform rule of the senate, and
it now has on its pay roll employees who
can point to over quarter of a century's
service.
The colored librarian, William Smith,
has been connected with the house
nearly thirty years, as has also John
Cauncey, who has been raising and low
ering the flag over the house ever since

Special to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Dec. 9.-The
stockmen along White river, in the
coded Sioux lands, have engaged men to
patrol the northern border of the Rose
bud Indian reservation to prevent cattle
from straying to the Indian lands, where
they would be lost. There is no doubt
that the Indians have run off many
cattle belonging to white stockmen, and
the stock raisers propose to put stop to
it. 1t is said to have been the practice
of the Indians to capture any cattle
found near their reservation and take
them to their camps, where they divide
them up among their brethren. A care
ful patrol of the border of the reserva-
ton will prevent this in the future.
