draws From the Contest.
OMAHA. NEB,, Jan. 22.-The Bee to-mor-
row morning will print letter from John
NJ. Thurston, formally Withdrawing from
the Nebraska senatorial contest. Mr.. Thurs
ton states as his reason that the interests OF
his client, the Union Pacific Railway Com
panv demands his full attention, and he is,
therefore, constrained to forego his ambi-
tion politically. This move will have the
effect of strengthening the position OF Pad
dock, but IL will not give him clear track
by any means. Gov. Crounz is coming for
ward more and more. Next to Paddock, be
has now the most strength among the re-
puolicans. This may bring some changes in
the situation from their side. The fact that
no vote has been cast for Van Wyck,
supposed ito be the populists' prime choice
for senator, is in itself significant Many of
the opposition think the venerable lawyer of
the third party will walk into the joint con-
ventions as soon as the candidacy OF Powers
becomes hopeless, and. with the combined
strength OF the independents and few
votes of the republicans, win in a canter.
The best posted politicians say there will be
no choice before late in February.

tion. which the Senate military committee
will add as an amendment to the army APP
preparation bill, that no vacancies in the
pay corps, which now contains twenty
paymasters, shall be filed till the number
falls below twenty. For ten years past no

a manifesto fronna faction of the farmers
alliance, appealing to the members in order
to repudiate the acts of the late Memphis
convention by forming new organization
on strictly non-partisau basis. The mani
festo is signed by J. II. Tillman of Tonnes
see, who, along with his office, was "abol-
ished" as far as the alliance is concerned at
the Memphis convention.
WHOLESALE DENUNoIATIoN.
Mr.. Tillman denounces the men who now
control the alliance, and reviews the origin
and growth of the order, pointing out it's
original purposes, which he declares wore in
accord with the principles of the Democratic
party, and which he, as a life-lon0 demo-
crat, undertook to carry out and impress
upon it's niersbers.
Referring to and defining the action of
the late national campaign, IN which he is
charged with treason TO the alliance by
sending oub under his official signature nu-
merous documents appealing TO the alliance
to be true to the democratic teaching upon
which IL was founded, he says:
II conceived the duty devolving upon me,
both as general manager and director Of
the lecture bureau OF the national alliance

cratic parry, to contribute TO the success of
the cause common to the interests of both,

ELECTORAL CERTIFICATES.

The Missing Returns of Fourteen
States Expected Today.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The missing
certificates of the electoral college of four
teen states, which ought to have been de-
livered by special messenger into the hands
of the president of the Senate before the
fourth Monday in January, have none of
them come to hand to-day, but intimstions
have been received that most Of them
are on the way and may be ex-
pected Tomorrow. Obviously the intention
OF the law in providing that one set of GER
tihcates should be sent by mail and another
be forwarded by duly. authorized special
messengers, indorsed on the outside with
the names Of the electors sending it, was to
provide for verificatlon by the houses of
congress Of certificates sent by neil by their
counterparts delivered by hand by trusty
commissioned messenger.
NEW BILL IN PROSPECT.
The failure of so many of the states TO
comply with this obviously necessary pre-
caution In matter of such vital Importance
as the election Of President and Vice Presi-
dent has called attention to the advisability
OF the passage of a general law to regulate
the form OF certificates to be issued in such
cases. and also in case of the election OF
United States senators and members of
congress- A bill for this purpose will prob
ably be introduced during the week.

APPROPRIATION BILLS PROBABLY Y
TO TAKE TIE LEAD.

The House to Occupy Itself With APP
propriation Bills.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The backw ard
state Of the annual appropriation bills has
impressed itself upon congress. The Senate
is chargeable with the greater delay in this
respect. Not one Of the bills has yet passed
that body, although the House has sent over
three which are ready for action. The
general expectation is that the anti-option
bill will come to a final vote before the
middle Of this week, and then the
appropriations committee will probably
take the lead, beginning with the
Notifications or army appropriation bill,
and following with the others as rapidly as
they can be reported. There may be sus-
pension OF the order in this respect long
enough to allow debate and action upon the
Cherokee outlet bill, some of the interstate
commerce bills and one or two other meas
ures which the committee on the order of
business may decide 60 call up, but none of
these are likely to be of such nature as to
arouse any party feeling.
THE M'CoMAs DOMINATION.
That will probably manifest itself in the
executive sessions during the week in con-
nection with the McComas nomination,
which Is the unfinished business when the
Senate closes it's doors. Tuesday by notice
already given, the Senate will listen to eu-
logies upon the late Senator Barbour Of
Virginia.
The silver repeal bill is an unknown
quantity In all calculations as 10 the bus
mess of the Senate and it may become a
live issue at any time upon the motion of q
senator to proceed to its consideration, but
at this time no such purpose is openly ex-
pressed.

In the House.


The probabilities are that the House dur
ing the coming week will also occupy itself
largely with delayed appropriation bills,
and will make an effort to catch up with
the record Of previous short sessions Of con-
gress on these supply bills.
Monday is district day under the rules
but Mr.. Holman intends TO call up the sun
dry civil bill on that day and to ask the dis
trict to give way. No calculation can be
made as to the length of time it will take
this bill with all its numerous and varied
items appealing to local interests, to pass
the House. 1t may go through almost as
rapidly as the clerk can read its provisions
or it may drag along for days.
The appropriation for survey of public
lands is regarded as especially insufficient
by western members, but on this as on
other items a vigorous fight may not be
made in the House, as the bill has to pass
the scrutiny of the Senate.
THE BANKRUPTCY BILL.
The Torrey bankruptcy bill is the special
order for Tuesday and Wednesday. but the
order gives appropriation bills precedence,
and therefore the bankruptcy bill will have
to yield the floor to the appropriations, Mr..
Blount purposing to call up the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill on Tuesday
unless the sundry civil bill is in the way.
The general deficiency bill is also on the
calendar and will be called up at the first
opportunity aud the military academy is
ready to report TO the House at any time.
OF the other appropriation bills the legisa-
tive, pension, agriculture Indian, postoffioe
and naval bills are still in she hands of sub
committees.
