RInine Is Reffer.

WAsHINaToE, Dec, ia reporter who
called at the Blaine mansion this morning
was informed that Blaine was little better
and very comfortable. DR.. Johnson,
Blaine's physician, says there is no truth
whatever in the statement that Blaine is
dying. In fact he is SO far from being in a
critical condition when he left him yester.
day afternoon that Blaine was sitting up
in bed feeling very comfortable, and there
has been so little cause for alarm since he
did not think it necessary to visit his
patient. The rumor that Blaine is in ex-
treme danger is supposed to have arisen
from the fact that his daughter, Mrs.
Damrosch, came over from New York to
see him.
1t is said the Washington climate does
not agree with Blaine ann that as soon as
possible, he will go either to Aiken, s. c.,
or Florida, instead of waiting till strong
enough to go to California as originally in
tended.

Reasons why the Coming Will he

NEW YORK, December 15.-Whether the
Hall -Fitzsimmons fight will be level and
whether antipodeans are such deadly enc
mics are such deadly enemies as they
would LhaYe Americans believe, are ques-
tions perplexing the sportsInen. Hall and
Fitzsimmons have signed articles to fight
for $4,000 purse in New Orleans. Their
actions recently led to the suspicion they
may be playing the public double. Hall
and Fitzsimmons once had great scheme
afoot here. They were coming to this
country under the management of man
named Smith. Hall was to be champion
middleweight. Fitzsimmons, under an
assumed name, was to pose as trainer, if
they met with hard customer; Hall,
when he got the throw, was to offer the
match of his trainer against him. They
expected to coin money. The men, how
ever, quarreled and parted. Their quarrel
patched up. They are, and some say they
always nave been good friends. The purse
for which the will fight is certainly very
large and had they not been engaged in
fake fighting before the sporting fraternity,
would not regard them with suspicion to-
day. Fitzsimmons asserts that he and
Hall are engaged TO fight, in which he
(Fitzsimmons) agreed to lay down
of a certain sum of money, Hall
however, has insisted that the battle is on
the level and that he will put Fitzsimmons
m III NuNN Vrrnu h0n kw~
just before he left for this country. The
match was pre- arranged, and it tenabled
Hall to get enough money to pay his pas

m,GARRAHAN AGAIN.
The BIII Comes Before the Senate
Through a Veto Message.

WASHINGTON, December l5.-In the SEN
ate yesterday the presidents veto of last
sessions bill to submit to a court of private
land claims the title of William McGar-
rahan to the Rancho Panoche Grande,
California, was laid before the senate as a
special order and the vote was about being
taken on the question "shall bill pass"
when Sanders demanded an explanation
on the part Of the friends Of the bill of the
reasons why it should pass. He explained
his own understanding Of the matter-one
Of his objections to the bill being that it
rested on imputation that the judicial and
executive departments Of the government
had been for many years past guilty of
wrong doing in the premises. His own
proposition was that even if the executive
and judicial departments Of the govern
ment had declared the original grant valid,
it still would not have found the remotest
foundations for such provisions as were
contained in the pending bill. He thought,
therefore, the senators should be grateful
to the president for having recalled their
attention to the bill. The bill went over.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 15.-Midwife Red

hundred and eleven babies, whose bodies
were found buried in her cellar. She has
been sentenced to only one years inn
prisonment. Great indignation is aroused
by the fact that the powerful influence Of
some Of her former patrons was able to
save her from the full penalty Of her
crimes, as she has been at such work for
nearly twenty years. There is little doubt
her victims number hundreds.

being that he can best unite all members

A secret session in st. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, December ia council of
Suffragan Bishops of the Metropolitan See,
of st. Louis, of the Roman Catholic
church, is in sessisn here. The two lead
ing points of interest to be acted upon are
the choice of three names to be sent to
Rome, from which the coadjutator to
Archbishop Kenrick will be selected and
the raising of the diocese of Iowa to the
dignity of Metropolitan See by the crea-
ton Of one or two additional bishoprics
and the elevation of Bishop Hennessy Of
Dubuque, to the arch-Episcopal dignity.
1t is not within the power of the council
to decree this, but it can suggest the pro-
priety ofsuch action to the authorities at
Rome. The council is held in entire Sc
crecy and the result of its deliberations
will not be known till after action has
been taken in Rome.

Proposed New Railroad.

The Burlington & Missouri west
ern extension says the Livingston
Enterprise, is expected to reach
Sheridan, Wyoming, abut the first
of November, that place being the
objective point for terminal during
the coming winter. The construction
of the road from Sheridan, which
will be begun next season, has not
been definitely settled SO far as the
route is concerned, but special tel
egram to the Helena Independent
outlines several courses that have
been proposed, the most probable Of
which is one that will bring the Bur
lington into competition into this
city for a portion of the Park travel
This route as outlined is from Sherl-
den to Pryor Gap, ,and thence through
the coal fields of Bear creek and
Rocky Fork to the mouth of Shields
river, where they will be in po-
sition to compete for Yellowstone
Park travel. From this point it is
intimated that the Burlington will
avail itself of the natural grade of
the Shields valley to reach Castle
| and Neihart, where traffic arrange
ments will be effected with the
Great Northern to Great Falls and
western points. This route, which
would seem to have more to com
mend to a railroad company seeking
remuneratiye business in Montana
than any other, would if adopted by
the burlington furnish Livingston
with a competing line. The advant
ages it offers are the stock ship
ments and coal traffic of eastern
Park county and the ceded Crow re
serve. National Park travel, the
traffic of the extensive mineral dis
tricts of Castle and Nelhar'
as we'll as stock interests O
the Musselshell and Judith valleys.
