Rhode Island Elections.
NEWPORT, r. l., April THE state
election in this city has been q hot fight
and indications point TO the election Of
the full Democratic legislative ticket.
One ward is yet to be heard from, which
probably will not chan &c the result. The
vote polied has been very large.
In the fifth ward, the Republicans claim
that n Democratic supervisor, who is also
president OF the common council, viola
ted the ballot law by giving unsolicited
assistance to voters.
They collected evidence and placed it
in tho hand of ex-City Solicitor Peckman,
who has promised to prosecute, il it Is
sufficient, and a prominent Republican
lawyer has declared it as his opinion that
1t is.
The Republicans propose to bring q
criminal suit against President and Su-
pervisor Boyle, and perhaps the warden
OF the ward as well, and also, il necessa-
~, appeal to the supreme court and con
test the the seats Of members of the legis-
lature elected here.
There was a serious row over the cleo
tion in jamestown, eliminating in a per-
sonal assault by Republican Representa-
tive j. b. Banders, upon DR.. Rowland, a
Democrat, which n+cessitated the attend
ance OF a physician and may result seri-
ously.
John II. Crosby, Jr., (Dem.) was elected
Representative. There was no election
for Senator or for the other four Repre-
sentatives. The total vote cast was 3S01.

His Single Captor IN Lieutenant whose Car
bine He is Forced to Obey.
5ABINAs, Mexico, April z. Vicente
Flores Alercz, second lieutenant OF the
Sixth Rural Cavalry, which is stationed
here, met Major Leopold Uvarex OF the
same regiment, who was driving In q
buggy from San Juan de Sabinas to the
station, accompanied by Alexandra Flores
of Sabinas. Lieut.. Alerez rode up 10 the
buggy and commanded Major Uvarez,
who was driving TO halt.
After telling the horse by a blow from
his carbine, and having fired several
shots lust over the heads of the occu-
pants of the buggy, Vicente Flores AL
erez commanded Alejandre Flores to- re-
tire ON foot, saying he had no need OF
OF him. When last seen Vicente Flores
was riding behind the buggy with his
carbine pointed at the major, who was
guiding his horse according to directions
straight across the country, in an easterly
direction. Col. Nicanor Valdez has tele-
graphed TO Piedras Negrass and other
points to arrest Flores. He has also tele-
graphed Gen. Reyes OF Monterey. who is
the general'o of this military district noti-
flying him of the remarkable occurrence.
1t is one OF the boldest kidnapping acts
ever committed in Mexico. 1t is believed
that Major Uvarez who has wealthy rela-
tive, has been taken to the mountains and
east OF here ty Alerez and his confeder-
ates, and that he will be held for heavy
ransom.

NATIONAL LEGISLATORS.
More Free Wool in the Unhappy
House.
THE ADMINISTRATION ATTACKED
Hor ITS Honest stand for Honest Money
The Indian Appropriation Bill 10 Con-
sidersd and Passed by the Scratches
tsrdsy In Congress-

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE House, in
opecial session, went into COMMITTEES OF
che Whole on the Free Wool bill, with the
understanding that debate on the first
section should close in one hour and q
half.
In the Senate.
After the preliminary morning business
Mi. Morgan, at 1890, called up his silver
resolution offered yesterday and yielded
to Mr.. Wolcott, who proceeded immedi-
ately to address the Senate on the subject
OF silver, beginning with q blunt state
ment that tn, Silver bill had been put to
sleep in the House. n the Senate might
as well face tho truth on the silver ques-
tion.
Mr.. Wolcott soon launched an attack
upon the administration. He admitted
that the silver men had suffered defeat In
both houses and charged that IL had been
cncompassed by the administration, the
flrst great force which had left no stone
unturned in its Efforts to defeat the Silver
bill. 1t appeared to desire TO avoid The
embarrassment oflaction uponthe question
before the National Convention was held.
He asserted that the Republican party
with, negative unanimity, would renomi-
nate the present Executive because no
other man of greater stature could be
r found to stand. The Democratic party
would renominate the apostle of tariff re-
form whose vision saw no other issue and
Who was willing to be consecrated again
TO public Office. Consequently the great
mass OF people were unpresented by any
party.
He (Wolcott)charged that the admin
etration had cracked the party lash and
had succeeded, but there would be a to-
morrow. 1t was a bumiliating spectacle,
and the administration should at least
have allowed Congress to express its
opinion without duress. Mr.. Wolcott
wound mp his speech with an eloquent
peroration and was applauded both by
benators and spectators.
At its close Mr.. Morgan's resolutions
went over without action; (they are still
on the calendar), and the Senate resumed
consideration OF the Indian Appropria-
tion bill, which was passed. -
