THE INAUGURATIoS MUpDLE.

Mr.. Harrity Tired of the fractional Troubles
Senator German May settle Things.
The anticipated visit to Washington of Chair
man Harriety of the national democratic COM
mittee, which it was stated that gentleman
would make for the purpose of settling the
controversy between the local democrats oc-
cssioned by the appointment of the inaugural
committees by Mr.. James L. Norris, has not
yet been made, and it is now stated in local
democratic circles that Mr. Harrity has re-
quested Senator German to investigate the mat
ter and to report to him the manner in which the
trouble may best be overcome.
IL was stated today by gentleman, who pro-
fessed to be well acquainted with the matter,
that before Mr.. Harrity received from Mr.. Nor
ris the names OF his committees Mr. liar
rity had been notified of the trouble
occasioned here by Mr.. Norris action and had
been requested to withhold his approval Of the
latters action until the opponents of Mr..
Norris could further communicate with
him. The gentleman further stated that
in consequence of the communications
received by Mr. Harrity the chairman OF the
national committee stated to Mr.. Norris when
the latter took his committee over to him. that
there was no need Of haste in the mat
ter, and said that before be took any
action he proposed to hear both sides
10 the controversy. 1t is also said that Mr..
Harrity intimated to Mr.. Norris that he was
heartily tired of the contentious sgitating the
local democracy, that he would thoroughly in
vestigate the situation and would go very
slowly in the matter.

SENATOR MITCHELL'S VIEW OF IT.
He Says Democrats Will Make u Mere Pre-
tense of Revising the Tariff.

He Says Democrats Will Make u Mere Pre-
tense of Revising the Tariff.
Senator Mitchell of Oregon said today that he
did not think the course of the republicans in
the Senate would be in any way affected by the
result Of the election. They certainly would
not accept the result of the election as death
blow to protection. 'They would not" he said
''agree to any interference with the Mckinley
law as long as they had the power to prevent il. "
"There were other reasons for the defeat of
the republicans this time he said. besides
the tariff. We probably lost votes on account
of the misrepresentation Of the Mckinley law,
but think the lies about the force bill and
the money question cost US more. believe
that If the republicans had been more liberal
on the money question they would have won
this fight do not think that the democrats
will dare attempt revision of the tariff on
the lines indicated by them in the campaign.
If they meant what they told the people during
| the campaign they could not offer any excuse
for failure to meet in special session soon after
the 4th of March and begin the whiting down
of the tariff. / do not think, however, that
they will have special session. What expect
them to do is to pass few special tariff bills
which will not materially injure the Mckinley
law, just so that they may say that they have
revised the tariff, but leave the general protec-
tive policy as it is in the main and claim credit
for the good result which are bound to come
from that policy. In other words, they viii.
not change the Conditions. but will ride in on
the tide Of fortune which will be due to our
policies, and they will claim the credit"

hind the Gainesville Tragedy.
GAINESVILLE. Fla, Nov. 2s-Today all talk
is Of the shooting Of Chas. H. Pratt by T. S.
stringfellow for asssulting his wife. The
prominence of the parties implicated and the
air OF mystery sought to be thrown over the
affair by the law officers makes the people more
inquisitive and more inclined to think that
there is something yet TO come out
Mrs. Striugfellow tells straight story, but
there are many who wag their heads and say
that Pratt would have never dared. if he had so
inclined such a bold thing as to assault her.
The action of Mr. Stringfellov in taking sum-
others think it strange that he should come
upon the scene 80 we'll prepared for murder.
Altogether the entire town is broken up and
something more will grow out of it.
Mrs. Stringfellow is a very handsome woman,
probably one OF the most charming women in
the state, about twenty-seveu years of age,
of magnificent form and somewhat inclined to
have good times, with lively disposi-
ton. She was Miss Broome of Lake City and
niece Of Judge W. p. Broome of Volusia county.
Mr.. and Mrs. StTingfellOw have one child.
S,TingfelIow and Pratt were churns of a close
order and were continually together.
Pratt WINS Young man of lively and jolly
disposition and inclined to carry things pretty
much MS own way. He and his brothers have
newspapers in several towns in the state, and

A Mystery of African Travel.

From the Pail Mall Gazette
Some further details are published concern
Ing the death of Lieut.. Quiquerez of the first
regiment o. Chasseurs while returning from an
inland expedition on the ivory coast. Accord
ing to the Li6re Parole the deceased had been
a sutton for the hand of a generals daughter,
but having no fortune his proposal had been
rejected by the father. He then set ont for
Africa IN the hope of distinguishing himself on
active service. On returning to the coast some
time afterward he was informed that his in
tended bride WIS married. He thereupon COM
mitted suicide in despair.
Lieut.. de SegonZac. the deceased's comrade
who brought news Of his death. in an interview
with Representative OF the GIL Bias, is re-
ported to have declared that he had no reason
TO defend himself from the accusation that had
been brought against him. inasmuch as the in
quiry would fully prove his innocence. He pro-
tested. however, against The insinuation that he
had ever wished 10 avoid paying Nine. Qui-
querez visit, adding that he had seen her sew
ersl times since his return to France. He also
declared that it was impossible that any papers
belonging either to Quiquerez or himself could
have been saved and brought back to France.
The Adtin, on the other hand. publishes the
text OF a long communication addressed to the
minister of war by Col. Fix demanding an in
quiry into the heutenant's death The docu-
ment reviews the facts already known which
tend to show that Lieut.. de Segonzac was re-
sponsible for his comrades death. Col Fix
endeavors to show that the tragedy cannot pos
sibly be a case Of suicide and points out the i'm
probability Of Lieut.. de Segonzac's story.
