The Alta-LincoIn County Bill.

BELLEVUE, Idaho, March ESPECIAL
telegram to THE HERALD. The Alta
Lincoln county bill annihilating Alturas
and Logan counties to- day became law
by limitation. Governor Wiley neglected
TO either sign or veto the measure. He
gives as his reasons for ignoring action was
that he wants the responsibility of the
strange bill to lie where it belongs with the
legislature. The people of Bellevue, who
were opposed to the measure, and those of
HALEY who are alleged benefciaries Of the
law, alike denounce the governor for his
want of decision in either approving what
was right or vetolng what was
wrong. 1t is an open secret that he
believed the measure unconstitutional, but
the heavy pressure brought to bear from
the outside has evidently caused him to
shrink from exercising the gubernatorial
prerogative. He even received from Wash
ington, at the suggestion OF Idaho politi-
clans, requests from Senators Shoup and
Dubois and Congressman Sweet to sign the
bill. While not listening to Washington
dictation he has evidently shown want of
backbone. Logan county will not give up
the fight, but is armed to fight out to the
bitter end the question Of the constitution
atty of the new law.

FARWELL'S SPLEEN
Against the President is Vented
on Beatty.
HIS CONFIRMATION OPPOSED
The Illinois Senator Personally Friendly %
Dubois, and in This Manner Shows
1t to Harrison.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-TSpecial tels-
gram to The HERALD. The Senate iudici-
airy committee reported favorably to- day
on the nominations Of Beatty and Pink
ham. The latter was promptly confirmed
as marshal, but when Wilson, of Iowa,
asked that similar action be taken in
Beatty's case, Barwell, of Illinois, objected.
1t was fatal objection. Unless he with
draws it the Senate will adjourn leaving
the nomination Enacted upon. Under the
rules OF the Senate, person whose nomi-
nation has been reported favorabiy from
committee. cannot be confirmed on the
same day unless unanimous consent be Sc
cured. number of Beatty's friends
urged Farwell to withdraw his objection,
but he sullenly declined to do So He sub
sequently stated that this was his last o.
portunity to strike the President blow
lnasmuch as his term expires tomorrow.
Farwell dislikes the President and the lat
ter heartily reciprocates it. Moreover,
Farwell Is personally friendly to Dubois,
and the Presidents treatment Of Dubois in
the matter furnished an additional pretext
for his action. 1t is quite probable that the
President will reappoipt Beatty after Con
gress adiourns and take chances Of his
being confirmed next winter

poings of an Insane Passenger.

DUBLIN, March 3.-At noon to-day while
the Dublin mail train was nearing Castle
Reach passenger named Gavon suddenly
drew knife and commenced slsshing and
hacking at those about him, at the same
time yelling at the top of hisvoice. The car
was loaded with passengers and all were
thrown into panic by the ferocious on
siaught of the man. Gavon badly wounded
five of his fellow passengers and only
desisted from his bloody work when both
blades of his knife were broken and the
weapon rendered harmless. He then
jumped from the train while it was going at
full speed The wounded passengers were
taken to the railroad station and physicians
were summoned to attend to their injuries.
The police captured Gavon who was not
much hurt by his Jump. He is insane.

Reform of the English Electoral Law.

LONDON, March 3.--In the commons to-
day Stansfeld, member for Halifax, moved
several amendments to the electoral law,
the most important of which is that no
person shall vote in more than one electoral
area. The present system, he said, orig
mated when the franchise was deemed a
class privilege, and not a citizens right.
AS the law now stood, man could vote in
every county and every borough where he
held a house; in other words the man hav-
ing the most means would have right to
return more members than one with smaller
means.
Haworth submitted an amendment to the
effect that any alteration in the law was
inexpedient unless providing that dltferent
parts of Great Britain and Ireland be rep
resented in proportion to population. Ire
land, he said, is now grossly over repre-
scented.
Gladstone favored Stans6eld's motion,
but it was rejected, POI to 1S9, the Irish
members being absent.

NO EXTRA SESSION
The President Says There is No
Necessity for One.
DEBATE ON THE COPYRIGHT BILL
Sherman Urges His Amendment-The oteed
Of the Publishers-Agreeing to Con-
ference Reports All Day.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-This Congress
is having remarkable closing. There is
an air of extraordinary calmness about the
twenty-four hours of Congress, and they
are almost devoid of interest. There is
perhaps more than the usual rush in the
Hobbies by those who are eager to press
through measures The ''lobby" is very
active and is in a measure successful,
though all that was expected In the way OF
getting little measures through will not
be accomplished. The work done to-day
was chiefly in conference, the two houses
merely acting on reports.
Friends Of the copyright bill are work
ing hard to have Sherman's amendment
given up by the Senate, as they feel ii the
Senate does not recede the bill will fail.
The result of the struggle is to put mis-
cellaneous items on the appropriation bills
which are still in doubt. Therefore it is
not possible at this time to tell just what
the aggregate Of the appropriations for the
session will be- These miscellaneous items
count up enormously during the rush of
the closing hours of the session. AT the
close of the last session very iberaf'
estimate was made by committees fixing
| the sum OF these Items at %, O00,0UU, but II
turned out the aggregate was $40, 900, 900.
1t is safe to say the aggregate OF all appro
priations will exceed S525, 000,0 900; possibly
it will be considerably more.
An evening paper says the President said
to callers yesterday that the report that be
| intended to send a special message urging
the passage Of the federal election bill was
not true. 1t would be, he said. both super
fluous and useless. The President said tt
these gentlemen he had no idea an extra
session of Congress would be necessary
| AS to the talked of special session of tn.
| Senate, the President said he had no inten
ton of calling one. There was, he said
nothing in the present outlook of public
business which would require It, The Pres
ident then told his callers he was going on
shooting trip about a week after the ad
Iiournment of Congress, to be gone few
days.

The Belfast League Dissolyed.

BELFAST, March 3.-Henry Harrison,
member of parliament, visited the officers
of the Belfast branch of the National
league yesterday, and seized all the money
and documents he could lay his hands on !.
He claimed the central branch of the
league authorized the Seizure, owing to the
disorganized state and disloyal attitude of
the Belfast branch towards Parnell Har-
rison and his friends then declared the
branch dissolved. A free fight followed be-
tween Harrison's friends and their oppo.
nents of the Belfast league. Fists, sticks
and chairs were freely used. Finally the
police cleared the building.
