LIFE WAS A BURDEN.
Strange Story of a Woman's Love
sfo: another Brought Outby an
Attempted Suicide.
They Quarreled, and Failing to
Accomplish Il Reconciliation
One Shot Herself.

New YORK, Dec. 31.-A strange story
of one woman's love for another came
TO light this morning, when Mrs. Eta
Harrington, handsome woman of
thirty-two years, tried to kill herself at
her home, Is One Hundred and Thirty
fifth street. this city. She shot herself
in the left breast, and is now in the
Harlem hospital dying. Her father is
John Haynes, president of the National
and Mutual Insurance company, OF
Yonkers, N. Y. and her husband, with
whom she has not lived for several
years, Frank II. Harrington, of Louis
Vile, ii travelling salesman. The cause
of the separation of the couple, as told
by Mr. Haynes, may be laid at the door
OF Miss Sadie Carson, member OF the
Harlem Young Woman'S Christian as
ISOLATION. She is about thirty years old
and quite comely.
Mr. Haynes said that about ten years
ago his daughter became acquainted
with her husband. and about five years
ago they were married. A year after
their marriage Miss Carson met his
daughter. and they became fast friends.
Miss Carson then took up her home
with the HarringtonS. Mr.. harrington
soon began to realize that Miss Carson
exercised a wonderful influence over

sent away, but his wife would not have
it, For two years matters ran along i'll
this way, Mr.. Harrington being away
from home most of the time. On re-
turning home from trip about two
years ago he made final demand that
the woman should leave his home, and
on the refusal of his wife to send her
away they separated.
The home was broken up and Miss
Carson and Mrs. Harrington began
housekeeping together. For year, Mr..
Haynes says, his daughter was power
less in the hands of the Carson woman.
All the money he gave her went for
presents, he says, to the object of her
infatuation. Finally, about last July,
the two quarreled, and Mrs. Harrington
returned to the home or her parents.
She was low spirited and melancholy.
After short stay at home, she tried to
make no with Miss Carson, but the lat
ter would have nothing to do with her.
Christmas day Mrs. Harrington sent
Miss Carson a gold watch, but received
no acknowledgment OF the present.
She again became melancholy, and last
evening told her father she was going
to kill the woman. She went to the
Young Woman'S Christian association
rooms last evening, apparently resolved
to carry out her threat. She returned
home early, however. much detected,
and shortly after midnight fired the
shot that may end her own existence.

ALL AFTER JOBS.
a Horde of Would-Be Doorkeep"
ers and Clerks on Hand.

ers and Clerks on Hand.
The contest over the organization of
the house grew much hotter yesterday,
although there were few, if any more
of the members in the city. The candi-
dates for speaker did great deal
of hard work in their rooms,
and all professed to be greatly
encouraged by the days work. The
Lee men received the greatest number
of recruits in the way of workers, and
his lobby is the strongest on hand. The
number of candidates for the minor of
fees increase daily and at the present
time there is hardly worn out and dis.
credited politician from any part of the
state who is not a candidate for door
keeper, Sergeant-at-armS or something
of the sort.
Men who can neither read nor write
want to be expressing clerks, and
busted statesmen, who are usually so
drunk that they could not tell whether
door was open or shut, are candidates
for doOrkeeper. These men thrust
themselves upon the candidates for
speaker at all times and under all cir
cumStauces, and are voted the greatest
nuisances to be found. More than
seventy-hve per cent Of the men
in the lobby of the Merchants
yesterday were of this class. Many of
them have held positions around tho
Legislature for years previous to the
session of two years ago ana are bar
nacles Of the worst class. The change
in control two years ago brought some
live young men to the front, and if the
Republican members would follow the
example and rid themselves of these
ancient pap-suckers, the service would
be improved and the business of legis-
lating expedited.
Give the young men a chance and
fire the busted and ancient bummers.

Technical Defects Brushed
Aside by Wyoming's SUI
preme Court.
Certificates of Election Or.
dered Issued to Carbon
County Democrats.
Democrats and Populists Will
Elect the United States
Senator.
Senator Carlisle rendered q
Portfolio by President
Elect Cleveland.

CHE YENNE, Wyo., Dec. 81. The SUI
preme court today decided the Carbon
county cases, holding that, while there
were technical defects in the certifi-
Gates of nomination, still they were not
of such vital nature as to invalidate
the election. A peremptory mandate
was issued to the state canyasslng
board compelling it to count the Carbon
county returns, thus giving the certiti-
Gates of election to the Democrats in
the house. While the Republicans still
have one majority on a joint ballot, the
house will never seat this one, because
his certificate was secured through a
clerical error. 1t is now conceded that
the Democrats and Populists will elect
the next United States senator.
The first time the authority of Acting
Gov. Barber has been questioned was
by Warden Briggs, of the penitentiary.
The acting governor signed pardon
for James Moore, who had been con-
vlcted at the May term of court. The
pardon was sent to the warden of the
pententiary at Laramie and returned
with the information that it muStbe
signed by Gov. Osborne to be OF any
force at that institution. A petition for
writ of habeas corpus was presented
to the supreme court and the writ was
granted. A decision in this case by the
highest tribunal in the state will settle
the veXed question of who is governor
of Wyoming.
The legislature will now stand OH n
joint ballot twenty-five Democrats and
twenty-four Republicans. OF the Dem
ocrats five are Fusionists, but that they
Will act with the Democrats, according to
agreement, is not doubted. The Demo

MORGAN A BIGOT.

Commissioners.

ST. LOUIS. Dee. 31.-A few weeks
ago a prominent citizen wrote letter
to Senator Vest. at Washington, COM
planning of the manner in which Com
missioner Morgan and Agent Rust were
treating the mission Indians of South
ern California. The basis of the COM
plant lies i'm the statement that Agent
Rust has established public schools on
the reservation, and is prejudicing the
minds of the children by making
direct attack upon the Catholic schools
and mission. Senator Vest replies as
follows:
"WAsuINGToN. d. G., Dec. 6, 1892
My Dear Sir: Yours of Dec. 8. with

possible to do anything in the way Of

knows nothing about the Indians, and

governmental powers should be used to

CABINET HOROSCOPE.
Guesses Made by Statesmen Now
at ashington.

gu W GOls
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Most of the
people in Washington interested in the
gossip relating to MI. Cleveland'S cab
met choosing have settled down into
the belief that Senator Carlisle is to be
secretary of the treasury in the next
administration. They are the more
inclined to this from the fact
that the choice of Senator Carlisle
would prove satisfactory to every one.
Among the guesSes of the other depart
ment is that of ex-Minister Phelps, of
Vermont, for secretary OF state, who
divides with Don NJ. Dickinson, in the
Washington mind, the best chance for
that portfolio. Representative Herbert,
of Alabama. and eX-Private Secretary
Lamont are both talked of for the navy
department. Gen. Pat Collins. of BoS-
ton, is talked of for secretary of war.
For the department of justice the
names most generally mentioned are
those of Representative Culberson, of
Texas; Martin f. Morrill,, of this city;
Representative Wilson, of West Vir-
gina, and Hon. j. Randolph Tucker, of
Virginia. Representative Blount, Of
Georgia, who has served for many years
Oh the committee on postotfices and
pOob IOCluO III IllO vi ICpICScLtd-
tives, is talked of for the head of the
postofice department, and may
get the place if Mr.. Herbert, from
the adjoining state, does not get
the navy department. He might
be appointed any how, though it is
thought to be more probable that, in the
event of the selection of Mr.. Herbert,
a Western man. like ex-Gov. Campbell.
of Ohio, who, however, says positively
he is not cabinet possibility, will
be appointed. For the interior depart
ment, Mr.. Morrison, of Illinois; Mr..
Gray, of Indiana. and other men of the
Western and far Western states are
talked of; and the agricultural depart
ment. it is said, will go to Mr.. Hatch, of
Missouri, or to some Democrat from
the Northwestern states.

NO CALL FOR "A CAUCUS.
Like Drowning Men the Minneap-
oils Crowd Catch at StraIys.


There is no call for a Republican
caucus of the members of the house to-
morrow evening in existence. Whether
there will be one, signed by all of the
candidates. will be settled at II o'clock
tomorrow, when all four of the candi-
dates will meet in Mr.. BOggs' head
quarters.
This was settled at meeting of the
four candidates yesterday forenoon i'll
the rooms of Mr.. BOggS. Nothing was
said regarding the details, and only the
hour for meeting set. 1t is hard for
men who have been sat down upon very
roughly to go home and confess their
discontinue. This was shown in a
marked manner by the great big dozen
Republican members from Minneapolis.
who came down to st. Paul Friday
morning owning the earth in their own
estimation, and who returned home that
evening feeling that there were no
members from the Oackwoods So meek
and lowly as to do them reverence.
This was hard, awfully Ihard, and, as
q drowning man catches at a straw, SO
the "big twelve, the ''solid twelve"
catch at a grain of comfort when they
think they can see it. The meeting of
the four candidates for speaker yester-
day morning was seized by the Henne
pin men as a sign that all was well, and
without waiting to learn what was done
they rushed over to Minneapolis and
caused the following to be printed in
the journal:
Todoy all the candidates for speaker, in
Guiding Mr.. Greer got together by mutual
consent, having officially announced them
selves in favor of it, and discussed the details
or the call, time, place, etc. The caucus will
be held as heretofore, ana all the candidates
will abide by it. No harm was done by the
call of yesterday If it had stood it would
have been more ample and fair notice to
some of the country members living in the
extreme portions of the state to be here
promptly.
The Journal was and is just little
previous.
The caucus will not "be held as here
tofore"-at least the journal does not
know that 1t will.
