A LEGAL TECHNICALLY
That May Bar Allison, Jones and Mo
Creary from the Conference.

WASHINGTON, Aug. ia very nice
question is raised as to the constitutional
ity of the appointment by President
Harrison Of Senators Allison, Of Iowa;
Jones, Of Nevada, and Congressman
McCreary, of Kentucky, as commission
ers to the proposed international none
tary conference. The point involves a
construction of the sixth section of arti-
Gle one Of the constitution of the United
States, which reads as follows:
mo senator or representative shall,
during the time for which he was
elected, be appointed to any civil office
under the authority of the United States
which shall have been created, or the
emolument whereof shall have been in
creased during such time; and no per-
son holding any office under the United
States shall be a member of either house
during his continuance IN Office"
In support of the proposition that the
appointments of the gentlemen named
are in violation Of this article of the
constitution reference is made to the
fact that Samuel J. Kirkwood, Mr..
Allison's former colleague, was held
to be ineligible for the position of
tariff commissioner, to which he was
appointed by President Arthur, because
that position had been created by an
act of congress during the term for
which he was elected senator from
Iowa. although previous to the passage
of the act he had resigned his seat in
the senate and had b' come secretary Of
the interior under G riiald.
The accuracy of this ruling in Kirk
woods case has been questioned, and it
is contended that even if il should be
held as good constitutional law there is
a marked difference between a civil
Office distinctly created within the bor-
ders of the United States, with stated
salary, and II mere authorization con-
tanned in an appropriation bill for the
president to designate five persons with
out fixed salaries OF confirmation by the
senate, to represent TIE United States in
foreign conference. All the leading
law officers of the department of justice
are at present absent from the city. The
question will probably be brought to
their attention on their return.

man left him and coolly walked back on

is that the deed was done in sudden fit

TENNESSEE MINERS AGAIN.
They Burn Stoekade and Send the
Conviots of Under Guard.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Aug. 15.-The big
stockade at Tracy City was burned Sat-
urday, and the 900 convicts were placed
on cars ready to be started for Nash
vile. After the conyicts had entered
the mines about 400 armed men walked
into the stockade, and after clearing it
of everything of valne set it on fire and
burned it to the ground. They then
marched to the mines and ordered the
convicts brought out and took charge of
them and the guards, loaded them in
box cars and ordered Conductor Finch
and Engineer Holton to leave imme-
diately. Being covered by guns, they
were obliged to obey. The train went
as far as Cowan, where Captain Bur-
ton, with twenty-six guards, has the
conyicts in charge and under control.
Between Sewanee and Monteagle the
convicts cut the train in two and ten or
fifteen made break for liberty. Seve-
raj shots were fired. Matt Wilson,
white, was killed, and Tom Smith, COL
ored, wounded. Six or eight made good

Governor Buchanan was at once noti-
fed, and the adiutant general left i'm

for 200 militia to meet him at Cowan.
The other soldiers at Coal Creek have
been ordered out to the scene. The
scheme of the miners was to draw
the soldiers away from Coal Creek and
then release the conyicts there, Gov
ernor Buchanan says he has had enough
OF "this foolishness' and is going to put
check to it for Ill time.
Sensational reports como from Coal

that the watchers need watching, and
they have assumed an aggressive po-
sition toward them. They claim that
the soldiers amuse themselves by firing
oyster cans loaded with mud from their
cannon into the village, and that the

town. The complaint has stirred up
much bad feeling"

A WOMAN'S ORDEAL
Public Opinion Changing in Miss
Borden's Favor.
THE EVIDENCE STILL GUARDED.

Even the Accused Woman's Counsel
Can Get No Inkling as to the Facts
That Were Developed at the Secret
Hearing-rhe Marshal Says 1t 10
Sufficient.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 15.-The re-
action in the Borden case has set in,
and today the popular feeling is notice
ably quiet. A few days ago it was the
popular cry that Miss Lizzie was
criminal and should be placed behind
prison bars; today, although the district
attorney and judges have passed their
opinions on the evidence, there are
many thoughtful and influential men
who believe trial will substantiate
Miss Borden's protestations Of inno-
cence.
There is now but one policeman at the
Borden homestead, and he is doing pa
troll duty on the street to prevent Gu
rious people from annoying the family.
The police have recommended their reg
ular patrol duty, and only three men
are hunting up further evidences of the
murder.
Thinks the Evidence Sufficient.
The city marshal expresses confidence
that the evidence to be submitted at the
hearing would be strong enough to war
rant the holding of Miss Borden for the
g1and jury. That body will not convene
until November, and the time Of the spe-
cial session of the supreme court that
must be held will be decided on after
ward.
While direct police surveillance has
been removed from Mr.. Morse and Miss
Sullivan, yet their whole connection
with the case will be gone over by the
police again within the next few days,
and they will not be far away should
the police need them. There will not
be great many witnesses summoned
for the preliminary hearing, unless the
present plans are changed.
A. j. Jennings, counsel for Miss
Lizzie, has been able to gain no inkling
of the testimony elected at the inquest.
A great many people feel that the gov
ernment should have acquainted Mr..
Jennings with its side OF the case The
district attorney will not talk ON the
case beyond dropping an occasional hint
as to its legal aspect.
Says There was No Rupture.
So many conflicting stories have been
told concerning the relations between
the members of the Borden family that
the testimony of Mrs. Charles j. Holmes
will be of much interest. Mrs. Holmes
has been one of the most intimate
friends of the family. She admits that
the family relations have not been as
pleasant AS they are in many families,
that in years past they were decidedly
unpleasant at times, but she pronounces
foolish all talk of an open rupture be-
tween Lizzie and her father and step
mother.
She says that as matter of fact Lizzie
had been on much more friendly terms
with her father and Mrs. Borden during
the past year or two than she had been
for long time previously-probably
since her fathers second marriage Mrs.
Holmes was with Lizzie every day from
the murder to the arrest, and during all
of that terrible week Lizzie maintained
the same wonderful composure and self
control.
People have exclaimed at her falling
asleep Wednesday after the ordeal at
the inquest, but until that time she had
hardly closed her eyes since the mur-
der.

CUMBERLAND, Nd, Aug. 15.-Satur-
day night, while Mrs. Jacob Humbird
was filling the reservoir of a gasoline
stove, she turned to speak to her daugh-
ter, and the liquid spread over the stove
and was ignited from the flame. The
stove exploded, enveloping her in flames.
james George, who was standing near,
had the fingers of both hands burned in
his endeayor to put out the fire, and the
daughter had her arms and hands badly
burned also. With the rarest presence
of mind Mrs. Humbird kept her mouth
and eyes closed, and when the flames
had been subdued gave directions how
to apply remedies for the alienation of
her intense pain until the doctors ar
rived. Medical skill was in vain and
she died yesterday in great agony.

NAPLES, Aug t5.-The festival of st.
Anselini was closed at Cessna last night
with fireworks in tine market place. A
crowd of several hundred had gathered
