wanamaker's Annual Report
Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON. Oct. Gen
eral Wanamaker is collecting data for his
annual report to congress. So far as can
ascertain the special features of the report
will be similar to those of last year. Dur
ing the past year he has been
Of the service, and he is likely to make q
special point for their development. His
postal telegraph scheme is not dead. despite
all reports to the contrary. Notwithstand
ing the Republican congress, the Fifty first,
sat down on it, Wanamaker now proposes
asking the Democratic house to
look into it and investigate the
arguments and figures he is now preparing
in its support. Much the same argument
those which proved ineffective with
the last. The same may be said
OF the postal savings bank. Wanamaker
is thoroughly convinced that one of the
most beneficial additions to the present pos
tai service would be the establishment of
savings banks at the postotices. His expe-
rience and the report from the country gen.
orally during the last year convince him
more thoroughly than ever of its prac-
ticability. The demand for such insti
buttons in the farming districts and small
villages where there are no regular
banks has been growing steadily, and his
recommendations in this line will be sim
liar to those of last year, when he urged
the establishment of postal savings banks
in the states having no laws regulating
savings banks and any other states upon
the petition Of considerable number of
residents in any one locality. He will
recommend that there be no more than one
bank for every ten miles of area and that
the interest paid on deposits be one-half of
90" per cent lower than that paid by bank
erS.
Nth regard to the penny postage, the
postmaster-general is not as enthusiastic as
he was. While in his recommendations n
will not recede from the position taken in
his former reports, he will not lay special
stress on this radical change. The two
principal points that will be dealt with in
Wanamaker's recommendation to the next
congress are the extension of the free de-
';rcrr system and the improvement of the
inSpectiOn service

Worst Blow His Speakership
Candidacy Has Received.
A SOUTHERN LEADER SPEAKS.
John J. Hemphl Of South Carolina Comes Out
Strongly for Judge Crisp.
The Texas Statesman Not Fitted by
Temperament and Habit to Occupy
Such an Important Place
as the Speakership.
4 Boom for Crisp.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 14-The worst blow
that has yet been given to the speakership
candidacy of Roger Q. Mills, was delivered
to-day by Representative Hemphill OF South
Carolina. who comes out strongly for Judge
Crisp. Hemphiil Is one of the leaders OF
the Southern Democrats in the house,
and is man of much ability, popularity
and influence. He has been in congress for
eight years and y one of the strongest men
in all respects on the Democratic side OF
the house The strength of Hemphi ills OPP
position to Mills lies in the fact that the men
are good friends. and that the South Carolina
representative opposes the ambition of his
Texas colleague for the sole reason that he
IS not fitted by temperament and habit to
occupy such an important place rs the
speakership. Hemphill says: "AIills will
better serve the party on the floor and on
the stump, where he has few eq ais. 1t is
no disparagement of his ability to say that
he is not just fitted for speaker. The speak
ership cannot be considered as reward for
party services, but as a place where work
must be done and great skill as manager,
and great good Judgment are important.
The old members generally appreciate ths
peculiar fitness of John Crisp for the place,
and have no doubt of his election. Mills
has performed party services which will ba
appreciated, and l regret that he should
run for an Office to which he cannot be-
elected. Many of us will vote against him
with regret that we feel compelled to do so.
A man, however able and distinguished, is
not always suited for every Office to which
he may aspire. The interests of the party will
be best subserved by the election of Crisp
I believe, and therefore shall vote for him.
He is sound on all Democratic principles. as
the old members who have served with him
know, and he has the qualities of safe
leader chief among them a sound iudg-

So In Ohio.

It is asserted even by Republican papers
that the difficulties existing in Hamilton
county, which threatened to lessen the
Democratic vote there by several thousand,
have been settled, and that the normal
Democratic vote will be given in Cincin-
natl. Governor Campbell's canvass in the
Western reserve has resulted in making
him many friends, and the Democrats claim
that he obtained decidedly the advantage
SO far as securing votes was concerned. in
the joint discussion at Ada. Some atten-
ton is being paid by the leaders of the Dem
ocratic party to the matter Of a third party
vote, and the estimates they make upon it
do not threaten any loss to the Democratic
party which is more than counterbalanced
by the losses to the Republican party in the
same cause. The farmers of the state are
generally impressed with the belief that
Campbell's views come nearer to their own
than do Mckinley s, and many Of them who
would have voted for third party candi-
date will vote the Democratic ticket, while
many others who were Republicans will
throw their vote to the third party.

SENATOR Chiffon.
POLITICAL ADDRESS TO The
CITIZENS OF AUSTIN.
Power Rests With the Supreme Court, Noe
With the Peopie-The Two Parties
In Texas To-Day-Silver Issue.
Special to the Gazette.


AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. Ex-senator Horace
Chiffon spoke at the courthouse tonight to
an audience packed like sardines in a box.
Hundreds who could not get in were turned
away.
He started out by illustrating the manner
III which the loose construction of the con-
Stitution by the supreme court resulted IN
Capitalization and unequal laws, especially
as to the taxing power, and concluded With
the statement that power rested with the
supreme court, and not with the people, in
spite of the well known popular faliacy.
Chief Justice Marshall's decision fastened
Capitalization upon the country. The
last census shows that New York,
Massachusetts, and PENNSYLVANIA gained
more in wealth during the last decade
than did all the agricultural states in ths
Union.
Passing to another question. he said there
are but two parties in Texas to-day, the
Democratic and sub-treasury parties. The
sub-treasury was cross-hackled at length
and condemned as vicious in policy and rot
ten in principle, as a scheme that every
honest man should resist. The
Farmers Alliance had done worthy
service, but no sub-treasury or other
Alliance has right 10 dictate TO the Demo
cratic party. If jefferson could witness
from his place in the spirit world the
antics of the sub-treasury leaders
mISQ ueFau1ng as democrats, he WOulQ ASK
for thirty days furlough and don a pair
of copper-loed boots to come TO Texas and
do some tall kicking.
The reconciliation Of silver simply means
a return to the double standard that existed
from 1919 to 1873, during which time Eng
land had only the gold standard Dpling
those years the country prospered, and the
gold did not leave the country, as we ara
now told it will do, if silver coinage bs

POURED HOT LEAD IN HIS EAR.
A French Woman Who Has Studied Shake
speare's Murders.


PARIS, Oct. ia large crowd was as
sembled yesterday at the Eleventh cour
correctionnelle in anticipation of the trial
of the woman Lombard, who has made her.
self famous throughout France as the most
energetic student Of Shakespeare extant.
1t is not for dis offense, however, that she
has been brought before the bar of justice,
but rather for the consequences that have
followed her close study Of Shakespeare's
works.
Nine. Lombard endeavored to get rid Of
her husband by pouring lead in his ear
while he was sleeping. This effort Of the
woman to bring Shakespeare's famous muir
der into real life occurred several weeks
ago, since which time she has been studying
the immortal bard in Jail, while her hus
band has been damning him in the hospital.
To the intense Disappointment Of the enor-
nous crowd, the court postponed the co1u
sideration Of tbs case. ~

barley. In the last fiscal year the imports
were only 4, 800, 900 bushels, because Of the
fact that an almost proLibitory tariff was
placed upon barley in the Mckinley bill
The result Of this is that those who need
barley to use have had some difficulty in
obtaining it, and have had to pay much
higher price, and yet the Republicans say
that the foreign importers pay the duty. 1t
has not turned out to be the case in barley.
