SENATOR FAULKNER
Thinks the Republicans Will Attempt to
Get up the Election Bill.
Sne.i1l T.lelrrat,l IN fhs P.cfsf.r


WASHINGTON, January Ex-senator
Faulkner said to-day that he thought il
likely the Republicans would make an
attempt tomorrow or Monday next
TO get the force bill up again.
IL was uncertain what the
result OF this move would
be. The Republicans did not seem now
To be any more united on plan Of pro-
cedure than they were before the bill
was laid aside. There was no doubt
that the friends of the force bill
were making. every effort to muster
enough votes TO get the bill be-
fore the Senate again, but il seemed
doubtful if they would succeed. The
general feeling is that the bill has
gained no strength since it was laid
aside two weekS1 ago. 1t certainly
lost prestige by Side-tracking, and If it
is again taken up, which seems very
doubtful, the chances of its passage
will be less than ever.
The substitute bill, which
senator Quay has introduced, and
which he provides for actual military
rule, in districts where it is alleged the
elections are fraudulent, is another
stumbling block in the way of Senator
Hoar. That gentleman said to-day he
believed Quay introduced it SO as to
make all legislation for regulating elec-
tiOnS OdiOuS.

THE LATE MOWER COMBINE.
Another Explanation of the Cause of It's
Collapse.

AKRON, O., January 13.-LaSt Friday
nights Associated Press dispatch from
Chicago, telling of the collapse of the
mower aud reaper combine, quoting
from Chicago evening paper, said that
the Mccormick Harvesting Machine
Company, the Dcering Company, the
Whitman & Barnes Manufacturing
Company, of Akron, o., and Wardner,
Hushneli & Glessner, of Springfield,
O., broke the combine by refusing tc
sanction the proposed policy of the
board of directors in raising prices OF
machines.
The fact is that Aultman, Miller &
Co. were strenuous from the beginning
in favor of a reduction of prices. What
ever contrary policy had been formula
ted for the new company was mapped
out by the board of directors, majority
of whose members were from the -four
companies named by the Chicago paper
and prominent among whom were c. ii.

miles distant on White Clay Creek and
the entire body OF Indians are between

commanded his force with considerable
skill and excellent Judgment. The
greatest difficulty is now to restore con

that arms will be taken away, and then
ali treated like those on Wounded Knee.
They have large number of wounded
men and children which creates a most
depressing feeling among the families
and desperate disposition among
them. Military measures and move
