Tie Power of Three Men.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Jan. 1O.-The standing
of the three farmer members of the lower
house of the general assembly IN the COM
ing senatorial fight is no longer one of
certainty. While it is not knvwn who their
candidate will be, it is certain it will not be
John NJ. Palmer. Representative Cock
rell. in an interview this evening, said that
under no circumstances would lie or his
colleagues support Palmer. They had no
objection to Palmer except that he stands
on the Old democratic doctrine that the
government can make nothing le-
gal tender but gold and silver.
"We say" added Cockrell, "that gold and
silver as u circulating medium for the de-
velOpment Of our country is inadequate.
What we desire is p%er-capita circulation
and we want the American system of
finance. We have come to the conclusion
that money is neither silverdnOr gold, nor
any other material: If Palmer was elected
he would spend his six years in Washing
ton fighting tariff measures, while the
money trust is squeezing u values
robbing us all of our homes. We will
elect our man or force the republican or
democratic party to adopt u policy. If
democrats are able to get the republican
vote and eject a senator without three
farmers that will simply be a republican
funeral" Representative Laubenrek in
d0rsed Cockrell's views. He said several
men had been discussed as candidates and
they were neither Palmer, Lindley, Far
well nor Oglesby. 1t is rumOred David
Hunter will be their candidate.

Anything to Beat ingalls,.

TOPEKA, Kas., Jan. 12.-The Kansas leg
~islature will convene in regular biennial
session tomorrow. All members are ex-
pected to be present. A majority of the
farmers alliance members have been on
the ground for a week past, anxious to be-
gin their public labOrs. When the roll is
called Tomorrow in the lower house,
ninety-three farmers alliance, t%wehty-four
republicans and eight democratic mem.
beers will answer to their INT The
upper house stands forty republicans and
one democrat. On joint ballot the farmers
alliance has a clear majority over all of
twenty.One. The combined opposition to
ingalls, reelection is composed of ninety
three farmers alliance and nine democratic
members, or thirty more than Ingalls,
forces. Frank McGrath. president Of the
state alliance, and Chairman Chase OF the
legislative committee. are confident that
whoever is nominated in tie alliance
caucus will be elected to succeed Ingalls,.
They claim the alliance forces will pre-
sent 4 solid front on the senatorial dues-
ton and they resent the idea of any deser-
tiOn from their ranks. Chairman Buchanan
Of the republican state central committee
claims to be- equally confident that ingalls,
will be reelected. He declines to state,
however. where the republicans will gain
sufficient reinforcelnents to their ranks to
overcome the alliance majority. Demo
cratic members, for principle sake, will
nominate a senatorial candidate Of their
own, and they will give him a compliment
AIRY vote unless their strength should be
needed to fill any possible breach in the
farmers alliance rank. in which event
they will throw their strength to the farm
ers' allince candidate. Their motto is
''anything to beat Ingalls," The inaugu-
ration of Oficers-elect occurred at noon
TODAY.

The Terms of Capitulation.

PINE RIDGE, s. D.,Jan .14.-This morning
Little Wound, Little Hawk. Crow Dog and
Old Calico came in from the hostiles to
talk with General Miles under escort of
Young-Man-Afraid-o of His-Horses. Other
chiefs are expected. This council, which
is now (1:30 p. M in session, is progress.
sing satisfactorily. Colonel Corbin, the
assistant adjutant general, announced that
the chiefs have assented to the surrender
of their arms and that the latter will prob
ably be brought in t ,night or tomorrow
and be tagged, as referred to yesterday in
these dispatches. The hostiles yesterday
sent word to General Brooke that the pas
sage Of trains so near them would have to
be discontinued. On the return of yester-
days train Lieutenant Getty n his
cOuts came out to meet it n CRYING a
detachment of hOstiles from the hill from
which a good view OF the progress
OF the train could be seen. Later
of the hOstiles returned and demand
ed that Getty retire and the latter sent
back word that he would only. when he
was compelled to do so. One Of the Rose
buds explained to General Brooke the rea-
son they did not return to the agency after
the fight at Wounded Knee was because
when he attempted to do 8 10 Indian police
fired on him, driving him to the hOstiles.
He said he could not tell whether the lat
ter would remain out, because there was
a number of rough men among them whom
they could not control.

The Great Harvester Combine Has
Been Broken by a Disagree.
mpnt Ot the Dirrctsrs.
The Mccormick, Deering and Several
Other Companies Did Not Like
the Arrangement.
They Withdrew from the Trust and
the Great Combine Sud-
denly Collapsed.
A Combine Broken.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-President Mccormick
furnished the Associated Press the follow
ing statement: "The American Harvester
company, after securing the opinion Of
eminent counsel from different states, has
been brought face to face with grave legal
obstacles to the consummatiOn OF the Oh
terprise for which it was formed. These
are of such a character as that. after q
most serious and careful consideration, the
conclusion has been reached that the whole
undertaking must be abandoned. In doing
so, 1t is but adopting the course such coun-
sci have united in advising. 1t believes
that in thus promptly taking this action
its course will meet with the approval of
the public"
THE CAUSE OF TIE COLLAPSE.
CHICAGO, Jan. a-An evening paper
says: "The collapse of this gigantic bust
ness combination, so far as can be learned,
is to be attributed to the secession of the
Mccormick Harvester Machine company,
Dcering company, Whitman Earnest Man
ufacturing company, and the firm OF
Wardcr, Bushnell 4 Glessner. These in
dividual companies we're not satisfied with
the line of policy mapped out by a MAORI
ty OF the directors in the matter OF raising
prices on farmers and the consolidation Of
the interest Of supply houses to the disad-
vantage of their customers. and they were
so rebelliOus at yesterdays meeting of tho
directory, that before night had closed they
had determined to withdraw from the
combination, cut prices and annihiIate
those who remained steadfast in their pur-
pose to bleed the farmers. Merry war is
10Y in prospect. 1t is eacl, firm for itself,
help themselves"

The Situation at Pine Ridge.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-The situation as
summed up at the interior department to-
day is about as follows: There are about
10000 Sioux Indians, men, women and
children, on the northern reservations. OF
this number, 1850 are accounted for, as
they are living on reservations in peace
and not taking any part in the present dis
turbance. This leaves about $500 men,
womenar.d children to face the earthworks,
hOwitzers and 5000 men now under the
command of General Miles. The hostile
camp is located about seventeen miles
north Of the agency and a Gordon of troops
surround the hostile camp with the excep-
ton OF the south side. the object being to
drive them lntu the reservation. There is
constant communication between the hos
tile camp and the agency. The hostiles
are we'll supplied with beef, but they have
no sugar or coffee except as they r sup
piled by the friendlies. as the reservation
Indians are called. While the situation is
regarded as q hopeless one for the Indians,
yet it is believed they have no intention OF
surrendering. 1t is predicted by some who
are Oh. the ground that there will bea bat
tie on Sunday or Monday. From reports
received ar the Indian department, the sit
uatlOn is believed to be tense and the peO-
pie at the agency are very much disturbed.
ROYER REMOVED.
The president to-day appointed Captain
Francis E. Pierce, First infantry, U. S. A.
agent Of the Indians &C Pine Pidge agency,
vice Roger, removed.
THE FREE COINAGE BILL.
WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The Star says:
There seems to be little doubt that the free
coinage bill will pass the senate when a
vote is reached, II is gaining friends in
the house. 1t appears possible that Presi-
dent Harrison may be called upon to pass
Judgment upon the free coinage bill.

GOVERNOR pEcK's MESSAGE.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 1.-THE inaugural
message OF Governor Peck to the state
lc. lsIature attacks the Bennett compulsory
law as interfering with religious practices
and deems it unwarranted by the c0ndi-
ton of the children in the state. He be-
lieves Wisconsin parents are not unmind-
full of the duty they W their otfsprings
and lie recommends All unconditional re-
peal OF the law. The governor treats of
the law as an infractiOn of the parental
rights. The governor comments in severe
terms upon the practice OF the state treas
urers wherein they loaned out the states
money and put the interest received from
such deposits into their own pockets. He
asks the legislature to devise some law by
which this money may be placed ia
banks within the state subject to the call
of the state treasurer. The Cooper cleo
ton law is praised as a wise measure.

The Chippewa. Got 1t Too.

MINNEAPOLIS, MIMI, Jan. "a special
to the Tribune from Ashland, Wis.,, says:
C%hippewas, the old deadly enemies of the
Sioux, have forsaken the traditions OF early
days and Joined in the ghost dance of the
Sioux. Last night a delegation of over fifty
Indians arrived from the surrounding
reservations and now the dance has COM
menced and is continued night and day.
The excitement is interse and mary of the
Chippewas who are working in the
woods are contributing to the sup
port of the dancers. The dance is held
at the Bad river, near here. Your
correspondent witnessed n night of the
hideous proceedings. IL differs from the
Sioux dance, as they do not believe in any
coming of the Messiah. They are atheists
in their belief. Among the dancers are
many well-educated Indians, who say that
whoever joins the dance will have plenty
to eat and will never be sick; will be proof
against the white mans bullet and enjoy q
paradise on earth. The white man is to be
made into u fish and driven back and
across the Atlantic ocean by the Great
Spirit. They do not believe 1T all in any
human agency. 1t is this that auiets the
alarm felt by ti:e settlers around here.
Some kept dancing tor "a hours without
stopping for food Or rest. Their endurance
is phenomenal.
