WILL EXPEDITE MEASURES.

Important Bills Will Receive Prompt
Attention in New York.
ALBANY, Jan. 5.-The democrats have
nailed down the republicans in the legisla-
ture. and in doing it used the iron hammer
of closure, which WAS never before lifted in
the senate of the state of New York. As
soon as the senator's were sworn in this
morning they got to work. Senator Ed
wards, up to this point, was an important
element in the situation but the democrats
did not propose to rely long on
an independents republican. They
would rather have one of their own.
Walker was to be seated in the Twenty
lican candidate, was proved ineligible after
getting majority, and the seating was to
be done without opportunity on the part of
Sherwood or any republican senator, to
enter q protest. Senator Cantor, demo-
cratic leader, offered resolution declaring
Chas. Walker elected. and moved the
previous question. Senator Erwin pro-
tested that there was no previous question
IN this body and asked leave to present a
Sherwood petition. After a brief but acri-
monious discussion Cantor explained, after
the question was put. that the senate, not
having adopted any rnles of order. was
under general parliamentary practice,
vi
vious question. After further vain protests
on the part of the republicans, Walker was
voted in. sixteen to fourteen, and immedi-
ately took the oath. The committee on
privileges and elections will ut once inquire
into the contest against four republicans,
Richardson, Derby. Donnellson and Van
Gordon. The democrats must have twenty
votes to insure the reapportiontment bills,
and the probability is that all except Van
Gordon will have to give way to democrats.
The majority means TO lose on time in re-
apportionting the state.
The assembly WAS quietly organized and
officers nominated by the democratic caucus
pointed by both branches and notified
the governor that the legislature was or
ganlzed. de at once sent in his message
which was cad. In it he congratulated the
people of upon the fact that for the first
time in eight years the governor was able
in political accord with the executive. He
stated that the paramount duty before the
legislature was to provide for the enumera-
tion of the inhabitants of the state, pre-
paratory to the reapportionment of the sen-
ate and assembly districts. He also pointed
out the necessity for the immediate reap
portlonment OF the congressional districts.
The governor advises the legislature to
repeal that portion of the electrical execu-
tion law which prohibits newspaper publica-
tion of the details of an execution. He ia
vors a LIBERAL but not extravagant appro-
priation for the Worlds fair, and recon-
mends the extension Of the system of
registration of electors to all parts Of the
state, and says any measure properly drawn
and not in conflict with the constitution
which will SO bulwark the present ballot law
as to make Intimidation and bribery I'M
possible will receive his hearty approval.
The governor advises the passage of CON
~ -
courts jurisdiction in all contested election
cases.

garding several noted horses became ami

place in the kitchen of the Park hotel be-
tween John Lindsay, chief cook, and Alfred

tion with Lindsay, seized meat clenyer
and pursued the latter around the kitchen
tables. Finally oolnering Lindsay. the
latter grabbed knife and plunged it into
Gordon's abdomen. partially disembowel-
ing him and making an ugly ont three
inches long. This ended the fight. and
Drs. Gelsthorpe N Sweat dressed the wound,
which. while dangerous, is not necessarily
fatal. Lindsay was arrested shortly after
by Sheriff Hamilton and taken before
Judge Race, whore he waived examination
and was bound over to the distric. court in
$2h0 bonds, which were furnished. Both

For two years I suffered terribly with stomach trouble, and was for all that time under treatment by physician. He finally, after trying everything, said stomach was about worn out. and that I would have to cease eating solid food for time at least was so weak that I could not work. Finally on the recom- mendation of friend who had used
 your preparations A worn-out with beneficial re-
 suits, I procured a Stomach. bottle of August
 Flower, and con- menced using it. It seemed to do me good at once. I gained in strength and flesh rapidly; my ap- petite became good, and I suffered no bad effects from what l ate.
