De Brazza,s Policy in africa.

PARIS, Feb. A dispatch has been re-
ceived here from Major de Brazza, the well
known French explorer, who is in com
mand of the Chart and Lake Tchad expedi-
ton in Africa He says he finds it the
wiser plan not to carry out his intention to
punish the hostile tribes which attacked
Fourneau's expedition, which set out last
year to explore the valley of straightforward
Central Soudan, and the French Congo
but he should conine himself to establish
ing friendly relations with hospitable
chiefs with view of forming chain of
military posts from the coast to Lake
Tchad, Such course, he adds, will be a
great aid in the extension of French in
ttuence in that part of Africa. Fourneaus
expedition above mentioned was attacked
by natives in August last, sixteen of it's
members killed and thirty-one wounded.
All the merchandise and many rifles were
captured by the natives and the expedi-
ton compelled to retreat, being followed
for a long distance and constantly har
raised by the enemy

James d. Beatty to be district judge of
Idaho, marks the termination in favor of
the administration Of a struggle lasting
nearly year which it had with the Idaho
Senators. Beatty was nominated Febru-
airy 10 last in spite of protests of Senators

vince the President the nomination would
not be acceptable to the people of Idaho.

Three days after the adjournment of Con-
gress, however, the President appointed
Beatty TO the iudgeship and his nomination

gress.

opposition to the nomination but for nearly
year Judge Beatty had been dischareing
the functions Of his Office in Idaho and Cal
ifornia. His decisions have been sustained

Shoup and Dubois realized they were de-
feated and after notifying the judiciary
committee they had nothing to retract but
did not care to follow the matter further

Disgraceful Conduct of Idaho's State Auoitor

BLAoKFooT, Ida, Feb. 4. Especial tele-

spectacle was witnessed by the people of
Blackfoot on our streets to-day. Silas w.
Moody. state auditor, came over from
Boise for the purpose of checking up the
accounts of the county treasurer with the
state. Moody struck the town loaded to
the muzzle, and after Keeling around the
streets through the snow all the morning,
much to the delight of the youngsters, he,
about noon, drifted back to the Reeves
house, where the proprietor took him to
the dining room, after which he was con-
Quoted to bed. A party just over from
Boise says he saw Moody at Shoshone in
the same condition day or two ago. 1t is

UTAH's FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT.

Delegate Game made quick work of the
bill creating fourth iudieiJ district for
Utah. The bill was introduced in both
houses few weeks ago. Through Mr..
Gaines influence the bill was favorabIv
reported to the Senate, and yesterday
when Mr.. Wilson, of Iowa, who had it in
charge, called it up, it passed without op-
position. Mr.. Game had also arranged
favorable report for the bill from the
House judiciary committee. When it came
over from the Senate to-day and was placed
on the speakers table, he decided to push
the matter and asked immediate considera-
ton for it. There was no objection when
1t was seen that no appropriation of money
was involved, and it was passed without
delay. The passage of the bill at this early
period in the session will enable the terri
torlal legislature to create district before
adjournment.

Indiana VIII Support Gray for President.
Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
New ALBANY, Ind, Feb. 1T is pretty
well settled that Ex-Governor Gray will be
lndersed at the Indiana Democratic conven-
tlon for President, although Democrats
who held Office under Cleveland oppose
him because he is said to have gone into
combination with Senator Hill. The lnten-
ton is reported to be to give the Indiana
delegation to Hill in the national conyen-
ton, after Gray has been voted for few
times. Gray's friends say Cleveland
couldn't carry Indiana in any event, as he
is unpopular with old line Democrats be-
cause he snubbed the late President
Hendricks.
The race for the nomination for governor
OF Indiana is becoming somewhat exciting,
Colonel @. E. Matson, of Green Castle,
who was nominated four years ago and de-
teated by Alvin P. Hovey, thinks he ought
to receive the nomination as a matter of
justice. John G. Shanklid, editor of the
Evansville Courier, formerly secretary of
state, would also like the nomination.
William r. Myers, also former secretary
OF state, is another avowed candidate.
