A Denial by Mir. Burdett- Coutts.

PHILADELPHIA, March 6.-Papers have
been received here in which Mr.. Burdett-
Coutts is named as defendant in a divorce
suit, and frank illusions are made to the
parties concerned. Even the most careless
gossippers would not have associated Bur
dett- Coutts with a scandal in England,
where his character and mode of life have
placed him above suspicion. The mistakes
made by the American papers have been as
great shock to the baroness as to her hus-
band The latter tonight writes the
Associated Press to state that the report
that there is a probability of his being i'm
plicated in a divorce suit is absolutely IN
true. With reference to the affair as linked
with another name, it is now known nc
publicity is probable.

CINCINNATI, O., March 6.-The funeral
services of the two young Hebrews
Fraueuthal and Salinger who committed
suicide together took place yesterday. B.
w. Fraueuthal of ST. Louis, brother of the
deceased, is here to take the remains OF one
home. Richard Salinger, uncle of Erast
Salinger, arrived to-day from Philadelphia,
and will bear away his nephew's body.
Salinger's diary shows him to have been
visionary and morbid, and to have had sui
eide in contemplation for long time. 1t
also shows that he practised mind reading
and hypnotism, but there is no proof that
he influenced FraueuShal to self-destruc-
ton. The coroner has theory of murder
and suicide, but there are no proofs.

" am here tonight much to my surprise.
The coroner's jury holds me responsible for

L Will challenge the world to point to the
6qudl VI 1ne fuLy-HfSJ congress Tor the
good it has done. We have done more than
passed great measures; we have shown to
the people that it is possible to have re

Congressman Lodge in his remarks said
he was not content with vague declara-
ton. 81 am Republican. The Republi-
can platform stated the party to be the

the fact was too vague, but the killing of
the proposition for free silver showed the
party was in favor of honest finance II
was also the party for civil service reform,
and these facts explained what he
meant when he said, II am a republican. -
"Of the last Congress, Lodge said. 1--WE have
given minority rule deadly blow; we have
crippled obstruction; we have proved to the
American people that the House can legis-
late and make it impossible for any major

by the miserable excuse that the minority
would not lett legislate."

BBATTY'S CHANGES
A Question as to the Presidents
Power to Appoint Him.
DUBOIS NAME PUT ON THE ROLL
OF Senators-It Was Done at Edmunds' In.
stance-Alturas and Logan Counties,
Idaho Without Officials.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 6.-lSpecial
telegram to THE HERALD. ]-Although
there is no doubt that the President would
like to reappoint Judge Beatty, there is
some question as to his power to do so. The
point has been made that as this is a new
Office, it can only be filed by and with the
consent of the Senate, and that the Fresi
dents attempt so to fill it having failed, he
cannot appoint man now, and have him
serve until the Senate can act on the nomi-
nation. The question Is under advisement
at the department of justice. Until a de-
clsion is reached, no intimation of the view
of the department will be given out.
Solicitor General Taft said to-day: Nine
months would be long time to wait but
if the President has no right to fill the
vacancy, we will have to wait
The other view is that a vacancy within
the meaning of the law actually exists, and
that the President has the same right to
fill it that he has to fill any vacancy. While
it looks simple to layman, yet it presents
legal aspect of delicacy and difficulty to
the legal mind.
