Crisp. the Protection Candidate

1t may be just an accident, but it is in
tereSting that the Cincinnati Enquirer, the
Augusta Chronicle and the Atlanta Consti-
tuition, all Randall and protection papers,
one of which is for Blaine for president,
are supporting Crisp, whose motto quoted
to-day is tariff reform and an economical
government" Should these papers elect
Crisp they may be expected to claim his
election as protection victory brought
about by the help of David B. Hill, whose
Crisp Sympathies are well known. 1t
begins to look Us if Crisp were the candi-
date of faction that will recognize the
Randall Democracy under the leadership Of
d. B. Hill.
Mr. Hill, it is understood. will be coached
in the senate by German, who is to see that
he gets proper appointments on the COM
mittees Of that body. There will be sew
eral very important committee places va
cant when congress meets. A proportion
of these places will be assigned to the Dem
ocratic minority, and the Democratic eau
Gus committee will assign the senators to
the vacancies according to its discretion.
1t is not usual for a new senator to be as
signed to an important committee.
A great deal of interest is taken in the
assignment of Governor Hill. According
to usages he could not expect to secure
recognition for prominence in the party.
The senators are very jealous of their rights
and are not disposed to recognize any Claim
based on prominence won outside of that
body. To place the governor in a position
such as is usually assigned to the new SEN
ators would put him at disadvantage and
greatly diminish his chances to maintain
his reputation as a statesman. 1t is prob
able that a majority of the Democrats in the
senate may exert themselves to give Gov
ernor Hill prominence.

Assassination Threatened by Those Who
Oppose One Man Power - The Junta's
Answer to a Conciiiatory Message.
Barili2s Doesn't Sleep Well
FOnseca'S Danger.

LONDON, Nov 20-The Exchange tele-
graph company has further advices from
Rio de Janeiro this afternoon, but no indi-
cation is given as to how the dispatches es-
capped suppression by the censors. Accord
ing to this company the condition of affairs
throughout Brazil is evidently growing
more critical. Everywhere discomfort and
disaffection with the present regime are
becoming more pronounced. Instead of
tranquility and acQuiescence in F'onseca's
assumption of dictatorial power, there is
vigorous opposition and increasing agita-
ton. In general terms the political condi-
ton of the country is described as closely
bordering ON anarchy Meanwhile, the die
tator's government continues its policy of
suppressing news, endeavoring in this way
to prevent one part of the country from
knowing what is going Oh at its center, and
so avoiding disaffection. In spite of the
efforts of the government to reduce Rio
Grande do Sui to obedience by force of
arms or to win its allegiance by concessions,
it is now generally admitted at Rio de Ja-
metro that that state will adhere to its atti-
tude of opposition to the dictator.
The Exchange telegraph cOmpany's dis
patch further declares that f'onseca's death
is probable at any moment. Though it is
known that Fonseca has been i'll, this state
ment is not supposed to refer to death by
natural causes. 1t is taken to mean that
there is extreme danger of his assassina-
ton, or of sudden and powerful uprising
of the incensed opposition, which will
overthrow the present regime and make
away with its head.

CAPITAL Political Gossip.

A defensive alliance has been concluded
between Blaine and President Harrison.
Blaine has agreed that he will not interfere
with-the Indiana delegation, and Harrison
has agreed that he will not interfere with
the delegation from Maine Whether either
OF the distinguished parties will stand by
their agreement is a question not yet de-
termined and one that is very doubtful.
Political agreements of that kind are not
always kept, the reason being, as the par
ties say. that they cannot control their fol-
lowers and are not responsible for them.
President Harrison in his remarks to the
Gillian Minister Montt said, speaking of
our neighbors on the continent, "Our diplo-
matte relations with them have always
been and will continue to be free from IN
termeddling with their internal af-
fairs" A great many people have endeav-
ored to describe what is the acme of i'm
pudence. That sentence, under the circum-
stances, seems to be about as far as impu-
dence could go. Egan was minister to
Chill when that remark was made, and then
there is Fitzpatrick and Hurlbut and Miz-
ner, all of whom We're ministers to our
neighbors on the continent, and each Of
whom took every occasion possible to in
terfere with the internal affairs of the
countries to which they were accredited.
The Republicans are insisting that the
tariff shall be the one overpowering and
overshadowing issue in the next campaign,
and the Democrats are very willing to ac-
cept that proposition. There is no desire
upon the part Of the Democracy to shirk the
great issue now before the country.

Holman showing why the Hon. Isaac
Gray Of Indiana ought to be nominated as
the Democratic candidate for president and
how he could be elected. The article is q

That is, he will have twelve out of twen-

seven, and will by no means get the solid

SILVER BUGS.
RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY THE
MINING CONGRESS.
Demands Made on the General Govern
ment-They Ask That Both Yellow
and White Metal be Used.
The Mining Congress.

DENVER, Col, Nov. 20-The time ap-
pointed for the opening Of the mining con-
gress this morning was $50 O'Clock, but it
was 1918 before Chairman Searles let his
gavel fall, calling the meeting to order.
The committee on resolutions reported as
follows:
The resolutions committee appointed
by the miners congress have handed in
their report, which was Endorsed by every
member of the congress except the one
from Wyoming. Their resolutions and pre-
amble were founded on the following:
Resolved, that the first national mining
congress is uualterably in favor of the prin-
ciple of bi-metallism as approved by Jeffer-
son and Hamilton, enacted into law by con-
gress in 1889 and accepted by the country in
all public and private business of the first
eighty years of our country's history.
That we believe gold and silver-not one
to the exclusion of the other-are the money
metals of the constitution.
That we are opposed to any law that
treats silver as a commodity.
That we believe that gold and silver
should, by law have equal rights, uses and
monetary purposes, and to that end demand
of the congress of the United States the en-
actment of laws by which silver shall be
coined free in all the minis equally with
gold, and to have with it full and unre-
stricted monetary power, and that the coin
age be in the ratio of sixteen to one, and
when the coinage is represented by treas
ury notes, each dollar shall represent 4121<
grains of standard silver or 25.S grains of
gold.
R. C. Powers of Arizona, an avowed ad-
vocate of free coinage, occupied an hour in
discussing the use of silver from the ear
lest days of the world S history to the pres
emit time. Several other speeches were
made favoring the free coinage OF silver.

Speakership Combine.

A new phase has developed in the speak.
ership contest. 1t is announced that the
New York Democrats intend to vote SOL
idly for one man, and it is said that the man
they have selected is Mr.. Crisp of Georgia.
If this be SO, Mr.. Crisp will receive twenty
three votes. and that is a large start to-
wards nomination in the caucus; but there
are some Democrats in New York who
have already announced themselves for
other candidates, and it may be possible
that they will not be drawn away from
their first preferences, even by the effort to
make united vote. Besides this, it is def
niteiy determined that Iceman Turner, a
member of the late house, who was sue
ceeded by the Hon. John r. Fellows, is to
be the candidate for doorkeeper. 1t looks,
from the newspaper statements, as il
Cleveland and Mills, with Morrison of Hi
nois, had combined upon the one side, and
Flower and Tammany Hall upon the other,
as to the speakership.

History of the Trial

His case was Immediately taken up by
the district court of Comanche county
which was in session at the time OF the
murder and after q fair and impartial trial
verdict of murder in the first degree was
rendered and the penalty assessed at death.
motion was made and granted asking for
change OF venue to this county alleging
that 1t was impossible for Frizzeu to secure
fair trial there owing to the prejudice of
the people. The case was called here at the
March term of the district court and the
verdict Of the Comanche court was sus-
tanned.
The case was then taken up to the court
Of appeals who affirmed the verdict of both
courts.
t'rizzell was sentenced here by District
Judge L. NJ. Conner at the last term of the
court, full account of which appeared in
THE GAZETTE at the time.
At the time the sentence was passed it
did not seemingly have the slightest effect
upon FriZzell although several in the court
room We're shedding tears.
4 few days previous to the execution the
governor was petitioned to commute the
sentence to Imprisonment for life, but it
was of no avail, although the petition was
largely signed.

Futures-Our Discrimination to buy yes
terday, as expressed in our report, at exist
ing premiums made US feel this morning as
though we had made mistake, as our
market advanced seven points over last
nights closing, but the more the premiums
were increased to-day by the advance, the
weaker became the market, as soon as the
buying power was out of it, as selling orders
met with no resistance and we close IL
points lower than the highest to-day. The
best confirmation Of what we have contin-
ually said about our spot market is exempli-
fed to-day by the price OFF December here,
which is practically spot. Although spot
quotations were advanced 1-16, December
is 7-32 or points lower than middling. AS
each month becomes current it will sell I'M
der spots, whether middling or not.
1t is one thing to bull con-
tract and quite another thing to
push up central cotton. The former
is Influenced by speculation from day to
day, but the latter can only be moved by an
actual demand, and we endeavor by going
over the ground very often to keep before
our readers the decided bearing that spots
have upon contracts to a far greater
extent in this market than those not ex-
perienced would imagine. A great deal of
actual cotton has been bought here this
week and contracts sold against it as

LONDON, Nov 20.-The news concerning
the trouble in Brazil continues to be very
meager and unsatisfactory. The last news
by way of Santiago indicated that the pro-
visional junta in authority in the state of
Rio Graude do Sui is taking active meas
ures to strengthen its position and TO MAIN
tain the opposition of the state to Fonseca's
dictatorship. F'onseca, on the other hand,
is trying to win the allegiance of the junta
by a conCiliatory course. Baron Lucerna,
president of Fonseca's cabinet, has sent a
dispatch by telegraph to the junta offering
on the part of the dictator to recognize any
local government that the people of Rio
Grande do Sui may prefer, on the sole con-
stored. To this offer the junta, after brief
deliberation, replied that the forces would
only disarm when Fonseca had resigned and

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-On Monday next
the Republican national committee will
meet at the Arlington hotel in this city, to
name the time and place for holding the
next national convention, and to issue the
necessary call. Minneapolis, Pittsburg,
Cincinnati, New York, San Francisco and
Detroit are represented, each with attract
i've arguments and fayorite orators Chi
cago will also send committee, but 1t Is
not expected to urge the selection of that
city very persistently.
Washington has taken no steps to secure
the convention. The Harrison men object
to Pittsburg as Blaine town. They may
object to Minneapolis and Omaha on the
same grounds. San Francisco would also
be thrown out of consideration if the Blaine
towns are to be excluded, and Cincinnati is
seeking the convention in the interest of
Blaine and Foraker. The president is re-
ported as having decided not to expires any
preference in the matter. He leaves 1t all
to Mir. Clarkson, who is not for Blaine IN
less he is nominated.

and will be rendered on contract as
each month comes round. Therefore our
short interest is largely represented oy
cotton, while the long interest is very
largely speculative. We are averse to let
ting contracts without strong and perlna-
nent demand for spots when contracts
are so much above the latter. Our antici-
pations in regard to the prospective move
ment have been realized so accurately we
feel some satisfaction in calling attention
to those made the past week. Al
though they were generally considered
extremely low on the floor here they
have been exceeded by the actual figures.
Our estimate of last Friday of 325, 900 for
the ports and 2225, coo for the interior have
been more than confirmed, IS the port re-
ceipts are 1868, 900 against 259, 600 last year,
and the interior 225000 against 20l.O00
last year, while the interior stocks are 4o6,-
co., against 350.000 last year.
The weekly movement reported by our
exchange, published this afternoon, shows
AZ. 900 bales have come into sight this week
as against our estimate of 45O,OoO
ISL, 900 more bales have come into sight
than up to the same date two years ago.
Liverpool advanced 2-64d better, but
lost it, closing steady at last
nights prices. Spot sales, however,
are $4,000 bales at 1-l6c advance:
Our receipts tomorrow are estimated at
1900, against $1,000 at all ports last year.
We estimate that by next Friday the excess
over last year will be at least 100000
bales more than came into sight up
to the same time last year. The
sentiment we express about cotton
applies only as long as the present condl-
lions exist Whenever they do not we
should give the situation as fully in favor
OF. cotton as we now present figures that, to
say the least, are not encouraging.
Spot opened firm and closed quiet. Sales,
$500 bales. Quotations up Lice on low mid
ding and above.
F.. O. b. sales, $3.50 bales, including 1000

Alliance. This was done by a resolution
excluding all Alliance men who are not
vouched for by the chairman of their re-

he bore credentials from his state Alliance
he was forced to retire. The anti-sub-
treasury people made prompt response Oy
issuing call for convention of anti-sub-
treasury Alliance men at Memphis on the
10Th day of December proximo.
The most important action taken at the
morning session of the Alliance was the
adoption OF a resolution from the Virginia
Alliance demanding constitutional amend
ment DISTINGUISHING the several office
holders during their terms of Office.
The Farmers Mutual Benefit association
was engaged all the morning with minor
amendments to the constitution.
