to playing the Maine State college
team on the old three game schedule
which provides for ione game on neutral

AZ the meeting this forenoon, the

10 Over.

Ex-Gov. Ogiesby VIII BE on Hand Until 1t
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Jan. 20.-Ex-Gov. Oglesby
arrived here last night and will remain until
the senatorial contest is well on. 1t is not sup
posed by any one here that one or two days will
settle the contest. In an interview Mr.. Oglesby
felt that the nomination is q serious and grave
compliment. one wholly unexpected by him.
In a general sense he may be excused, he said,
for saying he was ''out Of politics" having re-
tired to private life. He realized, however,
that it is a call from the people Of the state and
would be reluctant to disregard expressed
wishes of the people who have trusted and
honored him more than once. He added that
he had been informed that prior to his nomina-
ton a conference of farmer members Of the
legislature expressed their preference for him,
and he thought it not unlikely their action had
material influence in the decision of the eau
Gus. At any rate, he said. it had some iniu-
ence upon his mind in causing him to accept.
The ex-governor said whatever the result of the
approaching contest he does not expect to give
up farming for any other pursuit. and he
firmly believes that more and more as our
population increases agriculture must newt
ably demand of and receive from nations and
states more considerable regard than hereto
fore.
THE FIRST BALLOT FOR SENATOR

Chichester, Republican Contestant. Seated
by tho House.
Hartford, Conn.,. Jan. 20.-A large number
Of politicians and spectators gathered at the
capitol this morning to watch the develop
ments in the political situation. The house
met about 10 clock, and after the preliminary
business received report from the committee
on contested elections in the Wilton case,
where Chichester (republican) was counted out
because Of 'fOr" on the republican ballots.
The committee reported in favor Of Mr.. Chi
chester. and the vote of yeas and nays resulted
in seating Mr.. Chichester, 151 to IS.
At half-past 10 the senate assembled and was
called to order by Lieut.. Gov. Mervin, republic
can, who holds over under the old administra-
ton. The Hon. W. j. Alsop, democrat, who
was declared lieutenant governor last week, was
absent, and is said not to be in the city. After
prayer by the chaplain Lieut.. Gov. Mervin
made a short address to the senate, explaining
that circumstances over which he had no con-
troll kept him in that Office longer than
expected. and that thereby he was placed in a
most delicate position. No one would welcome
Mr.. Alsop more cheerfully than he after the
general assembly should declare him elected.
Until then he himself should hold the Office,
and when it appeared his duty he should come
and take up the gavel He then called the
president pro tenn, Senator Read, to the chair
and retired.
At IL O'Clock both branches of the legislature
proceeded to vote for United States Senator.
The republicans of both branches voted for
Senator Platt, while the democrats scattered.
The democrats will hold q caucus tonight to
decide who shall be complimented by their
votes. Joint session will be held tomorrow.

DUBLIN, Jan. 20.-Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien
in their private letters disclaim any desire to
retain Mr.. Parnell in the leadership, and say
that this question has not arisen at the
Boulogne conference. Mr.. Parnen has de-
clared his willingness to set aside his own
claims and his right to nominate a successor.
His contention throughout the negotiations has
been that he will retire provided he is assured
by the liberal leaders on the points OF differ
ence that have arisen between himself and Mr..
Gladstone. They add that some such assur-
ance has been informally conveyed TO Mr.. Par
nell.

DUBLIN. Jan. 2O.-Mr. Parnell in view of the
reassembling Of parliament has issued his
usual ''whip" in the Freenan's Journal 1t
reads as follows: Permit me, through your
columns, to remind members of the nationalist
party that subjects Of considerable importance
will occupy the attention Of parliament shortly
after its meeting on the 22d instant and to ex-
press the hope that full attendance will be
secured, especially for the committee stage Of
the land purchase bill.

A TACTICAL VICTORY,
The Democrats Outgeneraled the EepublI-

The Democrats Outgeneraled the Eepubli-
cans In the Senate.
The democrats won q victory in tactics over
the majority in the Senate today. Mr. George
Miss has not vet finished his speech on the
force bill and still holds the floor About l 80
o'clock today Mr.. Aldrieh called
up his cloture resolution against which
Mr.. Harris raised a point of order that
the resolution offered for a change of rules
was not the one of which notice was given.
When he had finished stating his point
Of order the hour of 2 o'clock
had arrived. which ended the morning
hour. The Vice President laid before the SEN
ate the regular order the election bill Mr.
George at once claimed the floor. Mr. Aldrich
moved to proceed with .he consideration of the
resolution for the change of rules. Mr.. George
refused to yield for the motion. and the Vice
President sustained him in the position.
MR.. EDMuSDs' POINT OF ORDER
Mr.. Edmunds made the point Of order that
the consideration of the proposed change of
rules was Of the highest privilege, but the Vice
President. without ruling on this, permitted
MY; George to proceed This put a
sudden end 20 the cloture business
for the day and may operate to
to keep il out OF the Senate for some time,
Mr.. George may have the floor as long
as hs physical endurance will per-
NIT, and to prolong his power
OF endurance he may from time 70 time
yield the floor TO some democrat to interpolate
some remarks. In this way he might hold the
floor for a week. This situation is not at all
what the managers Of the force bill expected to
come about today.
THE UNEXPECTED HAPrENED.
1t was claimed for them this morning that
they had got promise from the Vice President
that he would rule as they wanted him to. SO as
to cut off debate on the cloture resolution
at such time as Mr.. Aldrich desired. But even
If they had such a promise the unexpected
move of the democrats has, for the
time at least, deprived them of the oppor-
tunity for such a ruling. Before it
that some other complications will arise. They
may no. have enough votes TO carry their mo-
ton, they may not have a quorum voting, or
some other motion NAV intervene

Even the turbulent scenes which marked De-
RODS OF the last session we're discounted today
in the House, when it was necessary TO bring out
the mace in order to quel the disturbance.
The question arose over the approval Of the
journal, and was mainly participated in by Mr..
Mills, who completely lost his temper. The
democrats had demanded full reading Of the
journal, and the monotonous sound Of the clerk
reading long repetition Of roll calls did not
cease until after o'clock. Then the excite
ment commenced. Mr.. Mckinley demanded
the previous question on the approval
Of the journal. Mr.. Mills and half he
democratic side were on their feet in an instant
the din shouting that Mr.. Mckinley had never
demanded the previous question and that it was
a piece OF sharp practice on the part Of the
Speaker.
THE SPEAKERS CALMNEss.
Calmly and without tremor in his voice,
Mr.. Reed declared that the ayes had it and the
previous question was ordered. Yells
with terrific force from the democratic
side. The Speaker calmly remarked that the
ayes and noes were ordered and the clerk
commenced calling the roll This is usually
the signal for quieting OF disturb
at this point Completely Iost his head. and.
standing in the aisle, he alternately shook his
fist at the Speaker and ut the republican side of
the House.
The republicans gradually inassed in the
center and side aisles. the Speakers gavel
kept up q continual pounding, while
members increased the din by
cheers, Kisses and pounding on desks Mr..
Mills could be seen gesticulating violently. but
what he said could not be determined. Some
one on the republican side was heard to yell
''sIT DOWN, YOU TRAITOR!'
This seemed to arouse Mr.. Mills ire still
higher and increased the confusion. The arri-
val OF Mr.. Cavanaugh with the emblem of au-
thority, the mace, likely kept the disturbance
from becoming more violent.
Mr.. Mills took his seat, the aisles were cleared
and comparative quiet reigned and the roll
call was continued. There 10 great excitement
in the House, however, and trouble IL liable to
break out at any moment.

Those Who Are Attending Him Think That
the End IL Near.
SAN Francisco, Jan. 20.-The physicians
who are attending King Kalakaua Of the
Hawaiian Islands. who is lying dangerously i'll
at the Palace Hotel in this city, will say but
little in regard to his condition, but the opin-
ion is expressed by others who are in attend
ance upon the king that the end is very near.
Col Mcfarland. the kings chamberlain, adj
mits that his case is very serious, and Mr.. Nc
kinley, Hawaiian consul general here, stated
at midnight that the king was likely to die at
any moment. Rev. Frank H. Church of
Trinity Episcoal Church, Of which denomina-
ton King kalakaua is a member, administered
communion Last night, though the king was
then unconscious and had been so for hours
Kalakaua was to have left here this week for
Honolulu on the U. 8. flagship Charleston. He
returned here last week from a trip through
southern California. He was in poor health
when he arrived in San Francisco some time
ago. and it is believed that the banquets and
receptions which he has been called upon to
attend are the cause Of his present alarming
condition 1t was not until yesterday, when
his physicians announced that the king was
suffering from Brights disease, that the true
nature of his malady was known here. At 8
O'Clock this morning DIR. Geo. W. Woods, naval
medical inspector. said there was not one
chance in thoussud that the king would ever
recover, and that death would probably occur
In a few hours.
THE PATIENTS REMARKABLE VITALITY.
At $50 o'clock Medical Inspector Woods said
to an Associated Press reporter that there had
been little if any change in Kalakaua's con-
dition. There was every indication of approach
ing death. but owing to the marvellous vitality
which the patient was displaying he might live
twenty-four hours longer, but DIR. Woods ex-
pressed the opinion that decided change for

Fully 10000 Tons Of Sugar Lying In War

Fully 10000 Tons OF Sugar Lying in Ware
Houses in San Francisco Bay.
SAN FRASoIsco, Jan. 20.-Fully 10000 tons Of
bonded Java sugar lies in the ware houses on
Mission Rock, San Francisco bay. 1t is the
property of Claus Spreckels and will be held
there till April l, when, under the provisions
Of the Mckinley bill, it will be admitted into
the country duty free. For months Spreckels
has been keeping pace with the Java sugar
planters in buying and storing their product.
He has fairly bled the sugar market and now
has the greater portion of the years output
under his control. After April the consump-
ton of sugar in this country will increase, it is
expected, from 81 to IS per cent, possibly 10 so
per cent, or equal to the consumption in Great
Britain and other free-trade countries. There
will then be an enormous demand for sugar,
which will only be obtainable then at the prices
which Spreckels chooses to set upon it.
