Found some Prehistoric Relics.

ALTON, Ills, Feb. 21.-Professor Will.
ION McAdams, who is chief of the geolog-
ical and archaeological exhibit at the
Worlds fair, is now prosecuting a search
for prehistoric relics in the great mounds
of the American bottoms near this CITY
Thursday he made notable discovery in
one of a group of artificial hills near the
wonderful Cahokia mound. At depth
of about eighteen feet and under layer
of hard burned clay was discovered great
variety of vegetable matter, together with
the bones of animals and fish. Old earth
en- utensils, cords of twisted rope, and
coarse sackcloth were taken out in a state
of excellent preservation. The professor
thinks them the remains of a religious
feast, and says they are 1000 years old.

WAsWSGTON, Feb. 27-Ever since the
gamblers of W Washington were driven ont
of the District by the anti-pool law of con-
gress they have resorted to a hamlet just
across the Potomac river at the end of the
famous Long bridge, where a thriving bus
mess in pool and policy selling was con-
Quoted. So extensive were their transac-
tons and so openly was the business
transacted that the place has earned for
itself the name of Monte Carlo. 1t got to
be such nuisance that the Virginia leg
islature passed and the governor signed a
law prohibiting pool selling in the state,

Now Stands.

Condition of the Silver Question as 1t
Now Stands.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The status of the
silver question at present is this: A reso-
luton is pending before the committee on
rules to fix certain day, probably in
March, for the consideration of Bland's sill
yer bill. Unless the committee on rules
reports this resolution favorably las it has
been reported it will) the silver men will
be left to run the gantlet of parliamentary
obstructidBists and all sorts of filibuster-
ing to get the bill before the consideration
of the house. In this condition of things
the vote son Oates motion to adjourn
Thursday nights caucus without action
on the subject it was called to discuss is
significant, when taken in connection with
the statement that several free silver men
voted for it.
Prefer Not to Have to Vote.
The vote stood so to 55 Oates. when he
proposed the motion for adjournment.
said that while it was evident that the
free coinage men were in the majority the
caucus could not accomplish anything be-
cause the anti-silver men refused to be
bound by the action of the caucus. Oates
also indulged in other remarks about the
WISDOM OF deterrlng immediate action on
the question, and the tenor of his;talk was
all in line with the scheme for postponinp
consideration of the question. If forced to
vote no doubt large majority of the Dem
ocrats in the house would vote for free
silver, but they prefer to escape a vote on
the question and leave the Democratic
national convention to settle the matter.
Harter Still Pesging Away.
Harter, one of the leaders of the anti
free silver movement, says the result of
the caucus is gratifying to the opponents
of free silver, and doesn't believe a free
silver bill will pass. He is sure it will not
if the people are heard from. But if
bill is passed, he says, it will be with
provision in it that all pensions shall be
paid in gold, that the depositors in savings
banks shall have the right to demand gold
from the banks, that all holders of life
insurance policies shall be entitled to gold

WASHINGTON, Feb 21-John r. Dos
Passos. of New York, spoke to the Hatch

which was TO advance greatly the price OF

Judge Rotkin is Discreet

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 27.-Judge Theo.
Botkin arrived in Topeka yesterday morn
ing from Arkalon. The judge announced
that he had decided not to sit as Judge in
the cases of the six men held for the mur-
der of Sheriff Dunn. The reason for his
decision is that if he was to sit he would
probably be the subject of a first-class
funeral before the case was concluded, the
friends of the prisoners having threatened
as much, and being people who keep their
