A GREAT SENSATION

Legislature
IN THE SENATORIAL CONTEST.

Case-Manager Clark Wants to
Arbitrate.

BOISE, Idaho, Jan. 31.-[Special telegram
to THE HERALD. The house adjourned
at noon to-day until Monday, after an
Ineffective effort to locate the state agri-
cultural college. The senate is in session,
but has done nothing
While the location of the agricultural
college is receiving the attention of the
majority of the house, a storm is brewing,
so 1t is reported among those in position to
know whereof they speak, that will break
forth with great fury in three or four days.
1t is the proposition supposed to be known
only to a very few to pass a resolution
through the senate and then through
the house calling a joint session for the
purpose of electinga United States Senator
to fill the vacancy that will occur on March
4 next. It is said that the combination of
one faction of the Republicans and Demo
Gratis expects to pass the resolution and
proceed TO the election 1t is, however,
stated on the most positive authority that
there are Democrats in the house who will
continue to refuse TO mix up in the affair and
will have nothing whatever to do with It,
should it come up.
1t is stated by man well posted on the
senatorial muddle that the resolution call
ing a joint session will be introduced in the
senate as soon as Delamar returns from
his mine in Owyhee county. There is some
excitement among leading Republicans,
and some stirring developments may come

lister Crispi urged that the taxes proposed ov
the government were imperatively neces-
sary to prevent Italy falling again to the
servlle condition she was in, as regards

NO SILVER POOL YET
Has Been Proven to Exist by
the Testimony
vi Ihose Who Have Testified Before the In
Yestigating Committeeman Abundance
of Innuendo

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-McDonald
cashier of the Hanover National bank,
appeared before the silver pool investigat-
Ing committee this morning and testified
he had paid Owenby $3.50 for information
regarding the progress of silver legisla-
ton last session, but Owenby did not
furnish any information other than that
published in the newspapers.
John W. Hedenberg, the Chicago real
estate dealer referred to in the testimony
OF Hill and George, said he had talked with
number OF Congressman on the general
subject OF silver, but never with any view
to inducing them to purchase He never
suggested to Hill or George in any way that
they sell certificates to mem bers of Con-
gress or ybody else. He did not know of
the existence Of silver pool. In his con-
versatlon with Hill and George, they pro-
fessed to be able to give information as to
the course of legislation, but he did not
follow the matter up, as he was not inn
pressed favorably with the men and did not
believe them reliable. He went back and
forth between here and New York and Hill
and George followed him up to get an en-
gagement. They said it would require a
great deal of labor and the expenditure of
some money for coupes, cigars, saloon
charges, etc. Witness did not think much
OF information that came through saloons
and stood them OFF. Witness remarked that
the expenses he had borne to further legis
latlon were legitimate, hotel bills, printing,
etc.
Congressman Payson said he never had
been approached by HeGenberg, but simply
talked TO him about silver generally as to
newspaper men and others. Purely as a
matter of curiosity, Heidelberg had ex
planned method of speculation to him ano
shown MIN silver certificate. Heidelberg
had written to him for advice; Heidelberg
never intimated he wanted him (Payson5
to invest in silver certificates.
Congressman Perkins, of Kansas. made
a specific denial of the published intima
tion that he had any information concern
ing the alleged pool, or that he had infiu-
enced the speaker in regard to the appoint
ment of Peel. OWenby will be here Mon
day.
The last official business transacted bv
Secretary Window was the selection of a
site for public building at Aurora, Ill.
1t can be stated with positiveness that
the managers of the election bill have fin
ally decided to abandon the measure in the
of important public business re-
naming to be acted upon. This decision
has been communicated to the Democratic
managers.
The national executive silver committee
to- day issued an address to Congress and
to the people urging the free and unlimited
coinage of silver, referring to the bill
passed by the Senate, and urging strenu-
ously that it pass the House.
