Russia and Scandinavia.

ST. PETERSBURG; March 1O.-The ten
sion of affairs caused by the political situa-
ton in Scandinavia is keenly watched and
followed here. Russia has Tong been
waiting for an opportunity to incorporate
into the Russian empire the country bey-

Watterson Talks About His Letter.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
New YORK March 10.-In the course of
an interview with Mr.. Watterson, pub
lished yesterday, he Is reported to have
said of his now celebrated letter to Gov
ernor Hill, which the governor never re-
ceived: ''It is true that the matter really
looked worse in print than 1 thought it
would. But there was nothing in 1t that
anybody could take offense at. AS the only
official representative in Kentucky of the
Democratic party, had right to send it,
1t was written after counsel with people in
New York and Washington, and there was
a copy in each of those cities. After the
garbled version had appeared in print and
was telegraphed to for permission to use
the New York letter. it never crossed my
mind that / ought to ask Governor Hills
consent, especially as he had never
answered it. If he never received it, of
course that's not my fault. l was amazed
at his lack of common sense. If that letter
was impertinent, had written one year
before to MIR. Cleveland that was far more
imperJinent, only instead of Mr.. Cleye-
lands taking it as Mr.. Hill did, he replied
in spirit of cordiality and &C
quiescence. 1 have not spoken of
that since, partly from sentiment,
but should have no hesitation in publish
ing it If Mr.. Cleveland would permit it. 1t

POLITICS IN IDAHO
The Split in the Republican
Party
MAY MAKE IT DEMOCRATIC
Account Because he Appointed Beatty
The Legislature.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 1o.-[Special
telegram to THE HERALD. III the Idaho
Republican statesmen are to be believed,
the newly admitted commonwealth is liable
10 cast her electoral vote in 1892 for Dem
ocratic President. Claggett says the Re-
publican party is split squarely asunder
because of the corrupt influence which pre-
vented his election as Senator. Beatty
thinks that the fight on him has injured the
party irretrieYably in the state. Dubois
agrees with Beatty, but he attributes the
trouble to Beatty's appointment and not to
the opposition to him.
Dubois, Shoup and Mcconnell were in
New York yesterday. They were inter
viewed by Times reporter. Judging from
the article printed in o-day's Times, the
burden of their conversation related prln-
cipally to the Beatty case. The Times ar
ticle concludes as follows:
when Shoup and Mcconnell first went
to Washington they began to recommend
names for a district court judge. They
found that President Harrison had de-
termined to appoint Beatty. Mr.. McCon-
nell decided to go with the President. Nc
Shoup refused. Mr.. Mcconnell was &C
cordingly pleased when the appointment
was made last week. At any rate he says
he was, and that he believes the appoint
ment viii be satisfactory to Idaho. II
was necessary to appoint a judge MIR
Mcconnell said, as the business is piled
up out of sight in Idaho. For one county
there are claims amounting to more than
100000 which must bs settled in court.
Senator Shoup takes different view Of
the appointment from that taken by Mr.
Cornell. He talks precisely like a mar
who has been turned down and knows it
He said yesterday that the appointment
would not please the people OF Idaho; he
did not think that it should have beer
made. Senator Shoup is hard fighter ant
with Fred t. Dubois, the Senator who sue
ceeds Mcconnell, has declared war on thu
occupant of the White House. Dubois
says the appointment of Beatty means tina
idaho viii be Democratic at the next cleo
ton. Senator Shoup feels the same way
When asked what would be the effect o
the appointment when Harrison should asl
for delegates from his state, the senate
said, 1T will be a long time before Harrison
will come I'D as a candidates.

The Idaho Legislature to Adjourn

BOISE, Idaho, March 10.-[Special tele-
gram to THE HERALD. 1t is now certain
the legislature will adjourn on Saturday at
noon, concurrent resolution passing both
houses today to this effect.
The legislative apporuionment bill has
passed the senate, and it is believed will
pass the house without much objection.
The number of members is not increased,
but in redistricting the state they have
tried to make it sure Republican.
The general appropriation bill was con-
sidered in committee of the whole A
lengthy discussion ensued, and before
being finished it was referred to the com
mittee on appropriations to investigate
certain allowances. The Democrats took a
hand in the fight and got the Republicans
to fighting among themselves. Wells
called the president an old mess back, whose
ideas were of years ago, and crammed in
his head, and numerous other names, but
later apologized.
In the house Immediately after the read
ing of the journal, Martin, of Latah county,
arose to a question of privilege, and said
his colleague, Skitteboe had assaulted him
through the columns of a daily paper
here, and had even used the
postage frank of the house in
writing to their constituents slanderous
lies, and said the gentleman in making the
statement that he, Martin, had withheld
his vote on certain question, stated a
faisehood and malicious lie, and the journal
showed he had voted on the question
Skatteboe did not deny this, and took the
lie very becomingly. These men are Re-
publicans, Martin a Claggett man and
Skatteboe a Dubois follower, although bott
are from the same county.
Bills were passed allowing 80 cents mile
age. instead of 40, for the delivering Of
patients to the insane asylum. Another
providing for payment quarterly of state
officers, another general appropriation bill
The house devoted the entire afternoon anG
evening, discussing section %, in regard Il
water rights for irrigating canals. Repre-
sentative Briggs brought up the question
that, by the section, no one can prove
desert claims, as the land offices require
person to own the water, and this bill pos
itively prohibits it. At 10 o'clock no conclu
sion had been reached, and consideration
was passed over and remaining section
considered. The senate tonight passed
the bill TO refund the Indebtedness of tn
state at the time of entering the union. Tn
bill passed the house for the quarterly pay
ment of state officers.

Government Deposits in National Banks

WASHINGTON, March 10.-Acting Secre-
tary Nettleton, of the treasury department,
made the following statement this after
noon in regard to the report that the de-
partment had decided to call in government
deposits in national banks: 1.-The govern
ment has no present or immediate need to
use any part of the funds now in depository
hanks. Doubtless during the next eight
months part of such deposits will be re-
ouired, but they will, in such case, be called
in in installments and only on reasonable
notice, as heretofore. Inasmuch as these
deposits, when so called, will doubtless be
disbursed to meet the current requirements
of the government the fund so used will
be almost Immediately returned to the
channels of business"
Brazilian newspapers have been received
at the department Of state containing de-
cree by the president of Brazil, declaring
the ports of that country free and open to
imports from the United States that were
included in the recent reciprocity agree
ment, thus setting at rest rumors current
and assertions coming from various quar-
tiers that the Brazilian government did not
recognize the validity of the treaty.

TOPEKA, Kan, March 10.--There was q
scene of great excitement IN the house to-
night The committee reports on the in
vestigation of the state house commits
sioners not being ready, Speaker Elder,
who had taken the floor, moved that the
committee be allowed to sit after the ad-
journment of the legislature.
Douglass, Republican, complained that
the persons under investigation had not
been allowed to be present at the commit

ney. He and other Republicans denounced
the committee and Farmers alliance.
Elder became exceedingly angry and
said the alliance was running the house
and the Republicans must submit whether
right or wrong. Then the galleries Kissed,
the alliance men cheered and the Republi-
cans groaned.
The sergeant-at-arms and the door
keeper attempted to clear the galleries and

LONDON, March 10.-The besiegers OF the
house at Citherse. where G. H. jackson

tains his residence in barricaded conoi-
ton, and the police remain ON the watch to

were signs of recognition between the hus-
band and wife. The police officials advise
jackson to surrender to the authorities,
the law permitting forcible entrance into
his residence to morrow.

his Cleveland troubles, and in his differ
ences with MIR. Cleveland think Mr..
Cleveland is largely in the wrong; in fact,
I've told Mr.. Cleveland as much. If Gov
ernor Hill had gone to Cleveland and said,
Here Mr.. Cleveland, there is an imputa-
ton that 1 sold you out in 1888. 1t is not
true, but 1 am going to elect you,' and If
he had then taken hold and managed the
canvass and elected Cleveland, nothing in
the world could have kept Hill down in
1896. The whole country would have gone
for him with tremendous enthusiasm. As
it is, he will go into the Senate and be lost.
He is nothing but good organizer, any
how. Or course he is a bright, level
headed man, but not an orator or debater."
A reporter called upon Grover Cleveland
and asked him for a copy of the letter
written to him to which Mr.. Watterson al
luded, and of his answer to it. MIR. Cleve-
land said he did Lot remember the receipt
of such letter from Mr.. Wattefson, nor
his answer to it, 1t would be necessary fol-
him to look up his letters and make him
self aware of their contents before he de-
cided TO make them public

Failure of Dudley Hall & Co., Boston.

BosToN, March 1O.-The failure of Dud-
ley Hall & Co. was announced to-day. The
firm, which is composed of Dudley G. Hall
and Dudley Hall, for many years carried
on an extensive tea importing business and
also dealt quite extensively in sugar. In
dorsement paper by the senior member of
the firm for the accommodation of personal
friends proved too much for the firm. The
liabilities of the firm itself are 100000 a
large part of which is secured by convey
ances of real property and deposits of col
lateral securities. The firms assets con-
sist largely of equities in real estate. Other
available assets Of the firm consist chiefly
in stock and bills receivable and amount
in value to $4,000 or $4,000. If the as
signees can secure time to dispose of their
large interests In real estate held by the
firm and members individually to the best
advantage, creditors, it is thought, will
ultimately receive a large dividend. The
firm is the second largest tea house in the
United States, doing business of over
81, 900, 900 year.

What Hills Friends Say.

Especial to THE HERALD-EXaminer Dispatch
NEW YORK, March 10.-A World special
from Albany says: Henry Watterson's
declaration in the Louisville Courier
Journal this morning, as telegraphed to-
day, has caused sensation here. Gov
ernor Hill will not speak of the matter for
publication, but his intimate friends and
those who are known to have his conf
dence, do no hesitate to say that this is
only another manifestation of conspiracy
blythe friends Of Cleveland to destroy Hill
They are now more than ever convinced
that the famous WatterSon letter was not
only never sent to the governor, but was
not written until the date at the head of
the dispatch in which it was published.
The declaration in Mr. Watterson's news
paper to-day, following Immediately after
the long interview with him published this
morning in the chief Republican organ of
this state, shows beyond doubt, they say.
that the plot is now being carried out. But
they say further that it IS not being carried
out with skill because the various published
utterances of the chief plotter are self-con-
Trajectory. The stories that Hill had en-
tered into an agreement with Cleveland,
fell fat. The letter itself has had no in
fluenCe with the party, and now the alarm
is to be spread that the Democracy OF the
state is split up by the contentious of the
leaders, when every one with the least po-
litical information well knows that the
party was never so united nor so strong as
now. The declaration that on account of
this supposed lack OF harmony, Cleveland
mist not be nominated in 1892, is looked
upon merely as preface to more advice
that Hill also must not be thought of, in
fact, that both men must be declared out
of the race, to the end that at the last mo
mont Cleveland must be suddenly sprung
on the convention with the announcement
that Governor Hill has consented to his
nomination. There is much indignation
here at the course of Mr.. Watterson, anG
he has come in for many hearty objurga
tions. Many say the plot will be further
exposed in the course of few days.

The Scranton Steel Company Comes to Terms.

The Scranton Steel Company Comes to Terms
NEW YORK, March 10.-At meeting in
the office of the Illinois Steel company this
morning, the consolidation of the Laoka-
wana Coal and Iron company and the
Scranton Steel company was effected.
About seven years ago Scranton left the
Lackawana company and organized the
Scranton Steel company, with capital of
$3.50, 900, since which time the concern has
been disturbing factor in the steel rail
business. Efforts to induce him to consoli-
date or sell out proved unavailiug, and the
company about two weeks ago began put
ting rails On the market below pool prices.
The intimation they conveyed to him was
that if this course continued, other COM
panies would do what they saw fit to force
the Scranton company to terms. This 70.

PALMER WILL WIN
The Long Senatorial Contest in
Illinois
About to be Brought to a Close-Moore and
C0ckrell, of the Farmers, Issue an Adj
dress in Favor of Palmer.

SPRINGFIELD, H., March 1O.-There ap-
pears to be no doubt tonight that John M.
Palmer, Democrat, will be elected TO the
United States Senate tomorrow. After a
long talk with General Palmer this after
noon, Representative Moore and Cockrell
issued length address to their party (the
Farmers Mutual Benefit association), set
ting forth the efforts they have made to Sc
cure the election of an independent candi-
date to the Senate, through their efforts
with the Republican party and the attempt
to elect Streeter. They go on to say the
Republicans have secured from Streeter
such concessions and promises as would, if
carried out, entirely unfit him for consci-
entiously representing the principles of the
Farmers party. Finding it absolutely
impossible to elect an independent, they
have concluded their next duty is to select
a man who, while not representing the
principles of their organization in full, is
in sympathy with many of their demands
and comedies the needs OF redress in legis-
lation which has grown up under the rule
of corporations and monopolies..
becoming satisfied that we. could not
elect a man who would fully represent our
people, we to-day called on Mr.. Palmer in
the interest of our people to ascertain what
assurances and hopes he would give Us in
regard TO his future official action affecting
such legislation as our people demand.
This interview, we must say, was satisfac-
tory even beyond our expectations. While
he does not fully represent US, he has
forced US to believe he is an honest
man. We are more firmly convinced than
ever that the future prosperity and happi-
ness of this country depends on the success
and growth of an independent party. In
dependent political movement by the toll
| ing millions is the only hope of the people
| In view of the facts above stated, we will
tomorrow, cast onr votes for John H
Palmer, and bring this prolonged contest
to close"
Representative Taubenock, the Other
Farmers Mutual Benefit association man
has repeatedly declared he would never
vote for Palmer.
