HARRISBURG, Pa, Jan. 20.-When
the house reassembled this afternoon
the floor and aisles were crowded with
politicians and others who have been
more or less interested in the fight for
or against Senator Cameron's re-elec-
tion. The opposition to the senator
mustered but eleven votes, divided
among three candidates. OF the 2O4
members of the house, pol were pres
ent. Ex-Lieut. Gov. Chauncey f. Black
received the seventy-seven Democratic
votes. OF the 124 Republican votes cast
113 went to Senator Cameron, Z to A. l..
Taggart, to DR.. L. l.. Flood and to
Judge Harry White. Something OF
a sensation was created when ID.
Wallace Brown, Republican, of Craw-
ford, whose name is at the top of the
list, voted for Rev. DR.. Flood, of Mead
vile. Representative Morrow, OF 1ndl-
ana, voted for "a man in harmony with
the progressive interests OF the party
Harry White, of Indiana" Those who
voted for MIR. Taggart were Messrs,
Baldwin, Lancaster; Corey, Luzerne;
Lewis and Sumner, Bradford; Magnin,
Delaware: Potter. Crawford. and
Seanor, Indiana. These eleven votes
constituted the outspoken opposition to
Senator Cameron. MIR. Taggarts
strength was less than had been ex-
pected. the Cameron people concedlng
him fourteen votes as late as this morn
ing. He took his defeat philosophically
and expressed himself as being per-
fectly satisfied with the result. Twenty
members, he said, had assured hlm or
their support, but when the important
moment arrived they cast their ballots
for Cameron. At the conclusion OF the
roll call Speaker Thompson SAID:
Hon. j. Donald Cameron, having received
a majority of all the votes, A declare him duly
elected on the part of the house 10 serve tne
commonwealth in the United States senate
for the term beginning March 4, 1891.
The house then adjourned until IL

law requires that the two houses shall

the senate and house accordingly Will
come together at II o'clock tomorrow,
A Joint ballot will not be necessary,
however, as Cameron received majority
i'm each house. 1t will merely be nee
essary for the clerks to read extracts
from the journals of each house, and tile
presiding officer will then declare

Strictly Business.

The Afternoon Session Became
Strictly Business.
The stormy morning session Of the
senate was succeeded by a harmonious
business meeting in the afternoon. The
conflict of the morning seemed to be
forgotten entirely, and vast amount of
business was done. The first meeting
of the committee of the whole house
was held, and every bill on general
orders" was taken up and some recon-
mendatiOn made. A large number of
new bills we're introduced, and num-

ferred to the judiciary committee.
Senate File No. GO was introduced by Sena-
tor Stevens. of ST. Paul. This bill reim-
burses Archbishop Ireland and Thomas Coch-

should not have paid anything. The bill
went through under the suspension of the
rules.
Senator Phillips sent up Senate File No. II,
providing for the submission of an amend
ment to the constitution exempting certain
kinds OF personal property from taxation.
This went to the judiciary committee

PRICKING A BUBBLE.
Secretary Blaine Nails London
Times Canard.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Secretary
Blaine was asked by representative OF
the Associated Pre- SIS to-day If the state
department had learned what was the
cause of the ''war" excitement fort
night since in London. He replied that
he had just received copy of the Lon
don Times OF Jan. 6, in which he found
a dispatch from its regular American
espondent, dated Philadelphia, Jan.
s. as follows:
'The naval orders recently issued indicate
the gathering of formidable American feet
in the Pacific waters before the Behring's sea
fishing season opens. Eleven war ships ana
five revenue cutters are now, or will soon be,
there, having 30 guns and 2,625 men. Seven
other steamers. ii is rumored, will also De
chartered for revenue duty thereby increas-
ing the fleet to % ships with 11S guns and
1900 men, including two of the fastest and
most powerful of the new cruisers-the San
Francisco and the Charleston. All these can
arrive at Port Townsend by May. Six are at
san Francisco aud nine others in the Pa
cific.''
Mr.. Blaine said that on hearing Of
this unfoundcd and mischievOus tele-
gram, he had sent to the navy depart
ment and had been Informed by Secre-
tary Tracey that there has been this
winter a smaller naval force on the
Pacific than at any time for the last ten
years. Instead of the large force with
lis guns and 1900 men, as the Times
correspondent states, the whole number
of ships is five. the guns are thirty-one,
and the number of men $50. The force
is not so great as it was in January,
1890, and the force then was much
smaller than it was in Jan uary, 1889.
Mr.. Blaine added that he thought the
correspondent of the Times owed an ex-
PLANTATION to the American people. 1t is
stated at tile navy department that any
one making inquiry could have received
definite and accurate information, and
that there was therefore no excuse
whatever for transmitting erroneous
statements TO Europe.

PIERRE, S. d., Jan. 20.-The joint re-
suit of the ballot taken in each house to-
day stood as follows: Moody Is, Trip
Is. Harden "a. Crosse Is, Wardall IL,
Preston 8, while Melville, Pickler,
Clifford and Elliot, Republicans, each
received one, leaving Moody with ten
votes short of enough to elect. There
were six Republican votes in the house
he did not receive, and one In the SEN
ate. Every Democratic vote went solid
for Trip, while Independent votes in
both houses were divided between Har-
den, Crosse, Wardall and Cosand. The
following is the house vote: Moody SO,
Harden 80, Tripp 10, Crosse II, Wardall 5.
Cosand 5, Preston 8, Clifford 1, Melville
l, Elliot /. The senate vote: Moody
%, Trip 6. Wardell z, Crosse 4, Cosand
3, Hardin 2, Pickler /. Moody received
two Independent votes In the house,
which, together with six Republican
votes cast for other candidates. would
still leave him three short of majority
on joint ballot. A greater part of to-
days session was spent in filibusterlng
and dilatory tactics, reaching vote,
finally, just before adjournment. The
action of the Independents in dividing
the vote was predicted in yesterdays
dispatches, they being unable to
decide in caucus last night on
nominee. The house election
committee reported this afternoon in
favor of unseating five Republican
members from Lawrence county and
giving their seats to independent con-
testants. 1t was this report that caused
the tilibustering by Republicans and
finally caused the report to go over until
to- morrow. when. in the forenoon, it
will be decided. Every vote to-day has
indicated that the Democratic-Inde-
pendent combination is hanging to-
gether for the purpose of unseating the
Lawrence county Republican delega-
ton. which will probably be done, thus
rendering Moody's case hopeless. Re-
publicanS hope to defeat this movement
and tomorrow forelloon's session prom

BISMARCK, N. d., Jan. 2O.-A ballot
for United States senator was taken in
the legislature to-day. The vote stood
Pierce. 10; Miller. IL; Hansbrough. IL:
Lounsberry, Z; Ball, 9; Muir. 9; Stim-
mel, Q: Rourke, L; La Moure. 1; john
son, l; Democratic nominee. %. 1t was
an informal and largely mplimentary
vote aud it is believed that tomorrow
all the minor candidates will drop out,
leaving the fight to Pierce, Miller,
Hansbrough and Ball. 1t is gener-
ally understood that Pierce would
not show his strength on the ballot
to-day. The balloting is expected to
extend over an indefinite period, as the
policy of the opposition has been to in
tfoduce into the fight large number of
candidates that by locality and other
interests would divide Pierce'S strength.
They hope thus to wear him out. His
friends, however, are confident, The
vote was not significant, except that the
field against Pierce was stronger than
was expected, although there are known
to be several who are committed TO
| Pierce who to-day voted for their local
candidates. The feeling tonight is that
Hansbrough has gained some and that
he will lead Miller after couple
of ballots. Miller, who is urged by
many farmer members, was supposed
to be strongar than he really IS, An
effort will be made tonight to unite the
field against Pierce, but this cannot be
done. Pierce's friends are still conf
dent, and express willingness to go
into caucus. 1t now seems probable
that the fight will extend over several
days, and dark horse is not improba-
BILE. 1t has been a campaign without
argument, and the recognized high
character and standing of Senator
Pierce does not seem to appeal in his
favor. His most bitter opponent is Con-
gressman Hansbrough. Alex Mckenzie
and his frieuds are also opposed to
Pierce, and the cry that the corporations
are for him is used against him, although
his friends claim the railroads are simply
keeping hands off.

Puyallup Indians in Great Con-
sternatiOn.
TACOMA, WASH, Jan. 20.-Great con-
sternation prevails among the Puyallup
Indians here over the claim by
the Northern Pacific railway to the
odd sections of their reservation
under its land grant. 1t is claimed that
President Pierce's order of 1857, de-
fining the reservation boundary by au-
thority of the previous treaty, has no
force, as being prior to the land grant,
because a law passed by congress in
1858 limits the president to twenty acres
in making all reservations, except for
forts, in this territory. Some attorneys
even doubt the rights of the Indians to
any of the land. as not over two score of
them are full-blOoded Puyllups. There
is talk of filing claims on the even sec
tions, in expectation that this theory
will be applied.
