FIGHT ON COMBINATIONS
SENATOR HILL. VOTES WITH
THE REPUBLIC ANS.
The question was On the APP
pOlntment of Men From One
state to AN Office in Another
Long Executive Session.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-With six hours
continuous executive session the Senate
yesterday broke the record of the last
Congress, but in SO doing managed to
dispose of considerable business and get
out of the way of a number of nomina-
tions against which the Republicans have
been making a determined resistance
The struggle was over certain nOmina-
tions of citizens from one State, selected
to act as Indian agents at agencies To-
Gated in other states, and the Hepubli
cans opposed their confirmation on the
general ground that such nominations
were a violation of the home rule plank
OF the Democratic party plstfor1n, but
added to this was the further charge, in
some cases, that the nominees were not
qualified for the position.
Davis and Washburn of Minnesota
Stewart of Nevada and Dubois of Idaho
made vigorous speeches dcnunciatory o
while Voorhees, eloqucntly defended the
President from the shafts of his assai
ants.
The surprise of the day, however
came in the reported action of Senator
Hill, who is understood to have aided
the Republicans not only by his vote
but by his voice.
The men confirmed were: VIM. l.
Hargrave of Indiana to be Indian agent
at Western Shoshone agency, Nevada
Joseph Robinson of Missouri, at the Ne.
Perces agency. Idaho; Robert NJ. Aller
| of Illinois, at White Earth agency, Min
| nesota, and James A. Smith of Missss
ippi. at Yanktown, South Dakota.

AT Biloxi nothing escaped the fury OF
the elements. On every side could be
seen the wrecks of boats, piers and bath
houses, and in many instances the fronts
of houses on the beach were totally de-
niolished. Throughout the town great
trees were uprooted, swinging signs were
swept away like leaves, sheds and veh1-
cles were tossed about ike match boxes,
and animals of every description terribly
