Mr.. Hanford Seems Likely to Receive

WASHINGTON CRY, Jan. 14.-ESpecial. l.
Representative Wilson was asked today if
there was any news upon the judgeship
question. He replied;
know absolutely nothing in regard 10 the
present status of this appointment The ap-
pointment insofar as it is controlled at all is
largely controlled by the senators. When first
arrived in Washington City called upon SEN
stor Allen and told him ii he desired my in
dorsement for the circuit judgeship | would
take pleasure in doing all | could for him in
that direction. He told me he was not a candi-
date and would not be, in any sense OF the word.
Many kilograms have been received urging
the promotion OF Judge Hauford, of the United
States district court. He is in every way worthy
of this position aud would bring 10 the place
iuaieial attainments exeeiled by none upon the
Pacific coast The president could make no
appojntment IN our section that in my Iudg-
u1ent would be more credita5ie 10 his admins
trat1on than the promotion of Judge Han
ford to the circuit bench. since his
appoIutment to the district bench he has
given great satisfaction TO the bar aud the peo-
pie and the only objection that can be urged
against his promotion is our reluctance to part
with his services upon the district bench
In the event of the promotion OF Judge Han
ford who would be made district judge?
cannot answer this question, as am not IN
formed Some telegrams are coming in for
various candidates. As ! said above, the matter
being in large measure under the control OF the
senators will defer in great measure to their

others know they were not diseased in any
way. were very happy and took great delight in
hunting large game. Many lived to be more
than 90 years old, and were fine specimens of
manhood, some being over six feet tall. The
whites brought to them disorders and disease
During the Indian war McCloud was
placed in the Fort Montgomery guard

TO Put Lumber, Twine, Barbed Wire
and Other Articles on the Free List.
WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. l4.-At an in
formal conference of the Democratic men,
bers of the ways and means committee to-
day, it was agreed that several bills drawn
up by various members of the committee
and generally discussed and approved by
the Democratic majority, be introduced
by their authors at once and referred to
committee. As result, Bryan, of Ne
braska, will tomorrow ask consent to in
troduce in the House bill providing that
on and after October 1, 1892, the following
shall be exempt from import duty, unless
an export duty is laid by the country
whence they come, in which case the
present duties shall prevail:
Timber, hewn and sawed, and timber used
for spsrs and in building wharves; timber,
square or sliced; wood. manufactured, not
specially enumerated or provided for; sawed
boards, panks and all other articles OF sawed
lumber; hubs for wheels; posts, last blocks,
wagon or gun headings, blocks and all like
blocks or sticks, rough, hewn or sawed; slaves
of WOOD; piekets and palingsi laths, shingles,
clapboards, pine or spruce logs
Bryan will also introduce other bills
providing for the admission free of bind
ing twine and twine made in whole or part
of jute. hemp, sunt, sisal or other textile
grasses or other fibrous substances; barbed
wire of all kinds and iron rods for fencing;
all salt. fine and coarse, in bulk or in
packages.
While these bills have not been formally
considered by the committee, said Bryan,
there has been so general an expression in
favor of them as to leave no doubt of their
passage through the House, and it is
probable they will also pass the Senate.
A number of other features of the present
law will doubtless be attacked. Cotton
ties and bagging will also receive atten-
ton, as will coal, iron ores, kerosene and
a number of other things

The express matter in the office of the
Pacific Express Company was saved, as
were the books of the Washington Loan
and Trust Company.
How the fire originated nobody knows,
but it is suspected that an incendiary did
the work
The first tap of the bell was sounded
at five minutes past ,, and ten minutes
afterward two streams were playing
upon the flames, but the fire had
got such a start that alls the hay
in the livery stable, about fifty
tons, was in a blaze, and the roof
was also tumbllng in.
The buildings were wooden, dry and
pitchy, so the fire leaped around as if in
pile of kindling. The Charles II. Dodd
building caught and burned slowly, but
the hose kept the flames from spreading
much. The heat was so intense as to melt
or break nearly all of the plate glass win
dows in the magnificent Fraternity block
on the opposite side of the street. By 3
o'clock the progress of the fire was stopped,
and only the ruins were left to burn. They
smouldered under two streams till o'clock
this morning. The horses belonging to
the livery stable were all saved.
