Unbroken - Talk of Unseat1ng
Republicans In Maine.
Special to the RECORD UNION.

Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
Boston, Jan. Ex-Governor Russell to-
day sent an official address to the Legis-
lature. He recommends legislation to
define the objects and to limit the
amounts of expenditures for election pur-
poses and stringent laws to repress lob
bying. The Legislature is asked to me-
morialize Congress in behalf of reciproc-
ity with Canada. Other matters are dealt
with of only local interest.
MICHIGAN.
LANSING (Mich.), Jan. 5.-Governor
Rich delivered his inaugural message to
the Legislature to-day. He makes plea
for good roads, criticises the Miner law,
favors two boards of election inspectors
to facilitate the count of the vote. asks
that legitimate campaign expenses be de-
fined, suggests effective quarantine
against cholera, and the gradual abolish
mont Of grade crossings. Among the
recommendations of retiring Governor
Winans' message is an increase in the
capacity of the State University to accom-
modate all who desire to come, the estab-
lishment of public road system, the
placing Of building and loan associations
under State supervision, and the abolish
ment of free railroad passes to legislators.
MAINE.
AUGUSTA (Me.), Jan. st is stated an
effort will be made by leading Democrats
to have certain Republican members of
the Legislature unseated under a section
Of the new ballot law which forbids any
candidate to act as an election officer.
THE NEBRASKA DEADLOCK.
LINCOLN (Neb.), Jan. 5.-The House is
ready to canvass the vote on the State
election, but can do nothing till the SEN
ate, which is still deadlocked, organizes
and meets with the House in joint ses-
sion for the purpose.
MONTANA.
HELENA (Mont.), Jan. 5.-The Legis-
lature met in joint session this morning
and listened to Governor Richards mes
sage. The first vote for United States
Senator will be taken on January 18th.
REPUBLICAN SUCCESS IN KANSAS.
TOPEKA (Kan.), Jan. 5.-The Supreme
Court this afternoon decided the Stubbs-
Rosenthal legislative contest in favor of
Stubbs, Republican. This virtually in
sures the Republicans the organization of
the House.
In the joint session the parties would
be divided thus: Republicans "A, Pop
ulists Il, Democrats 5, giving clear OPP
position to the Republicans of two. This
majority, however. is not harmonious
one, except in its opposition to Republic
! /
bine it on the question it will have to
decide, namely, the Senatorship. The
five Democrats hold the balance OF
strength. They recognize their power,
and will utilize it in a strong endeavor to
elect a Democrat to succeed Senator Per-
kins.

Steps Taken for Fight to Control the
Next Senate.

Steps Taken for a Fight to Control the
Next Senate.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-The Republi-
cans of the Senate met in caucus this
morning to consider the order of busi-
ness. Initial steps were taken toward
beginning bitter fight for control of the
next Senate. If there has been any be-
lief that the Republicans intended per-
mitting the organization OF the next Sem
ate to go by default, that belief was shat
tered by the action taken to-day. A
committee consisting of Teller, Hoar,
Mitchell, Chandler, Higgins, and all the
Republican members of the Committee
on Privileges and Elections, was ap-
pointed TO take special charge of the sub
ject of organizing, and incidentally
thereto the matter of election of Senators
in Western States, where the fight is
now on. These Senators are all astute
politicians, and will see nothing done to
jeOpardiZe the chances of Republicans,
and will prepare all cases, so that in the
event of contests, which are inevitable,
the best possible front can be made. The
question of order of business is second
ary to the more important matter of
organization, and a committee to agree
upon some working plan was appointed
in the persons of Senators Sherman,
Frye, Dolph, Cullom, Platt, Washburn
and Quay. They will canvass the situa-
tion and report at another caucus, to be
called early next week.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
Information Wanted Regarding Pro-

Information Wanted Regarding Pro-
Gress Made.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Congressman
Owen Scott of Illinois has introduced
a resolution calling upon the Secretary of
the Treasury for information regarding
the progress of public buildings in vari-
ous parts of the country, for which appro-
priations were made in 1890. Upon in
vestigation and inquiry of the Supervis-
ing Architect of the Treasury, Mr.. Scott
finds that of seventy-five buildings, inn
provements and extensions for which ap-
propriations were made in 1890, contracts
for erection were let for only fifteen. For
ten others partial contracts only were let.
On the fifty others nothing has been
done.
Mr.. Scott insists that contracts for pub
lie buildings are Systematically held back
because of the depleted condition of the
Treasury, and it appears that it has been
the policy of the Administration to avoid
every step that would require cash from
the Government.

The House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.--The House to-
day is considering the private pension
bills coming over from the last session as
unfinished business. A bare quorum
was present, and finally the House was
obliged to await the presence of quorum.
By unanimous consent the House then
proceeded in Committee of the Whole to
consideration of the fortifcation appro-
priation bill. There was no general de-
bate. The bill passed without amend
ment. 1t appropriates 81, 1885, ,O55.
Consideration of private pension bills
was then resumed, and a few measures
were passed without opposition, because
of the little attention paid to them. and
as there was no quorum, the House ad-

WAsHIN GToN, Jan. 5.-All sorts of
silver propositions are being talked over
by members of the House. Bland was
approached by a dozen members with
suggestions of a compromise offered. The
return to the Bland Act Is the chief COM
promise proposition suggested to him,
but Mr.. Bland at present refuses to listen
to anything less than the coinage of
$1,000, 900 worth of silver per month, and
to this the other side, of course, will not
agree. Culbertson (Dem.) of Texas,
Chairman of the Judiciary Committee,
has prepared bill in the nature of a COM
promise, which he will introduce in the
House. 1t requires the coinage and
use of the accumulated silver bullion
now in the Treasury. The present law
is to be repealed and the Bland law re-
enacted.

Cleveland has informed several Demo-

representing his views on financial ques-

silver matter settled in some way as
speedily as possible, that he would be
content to have the Bland Act restored
as a compromise in consideration Of the
repeal of the Sherman Act. How far he
is using his influence to bring this about
is uncertain, but the men in Congress
who are interesting themselves in the
matter are very hopeful of being able to
effect a compromise.

A MINISTER OF PEACE.
WHAT POPE LEO XIII. ARDENTLY
DESIRES TO BE.
The Holy Father Gives an Audience to
Cardinals, Prelates and Bishops
and Makes a Significant
Address.

Rene, Dec. % The pope today gave
an audience to cardinals, prelates and
bishops in the throne room of the vati-
can. The reply of the holy father to
the address OF the prelates contained
no direct reference to anarchists. Dur
the course of his remarks, the pope
said: "In conformity with your wishes
we ardently desire to be, as many of our
predecessors were, minister and mes
senger Of peace, to Europe and the
world. We are its authorized jealous
defender, because peace among individ-
uals and among society is the daughter
of justice. which. according to holy
writ, lives by faith, and the supreme
priesthood OF Christianity, being
the guardian of faith and the
defender of justice, ia invest
ed with an apostleship for unity
and peace. This apostoate must be
given freedom of action, and its words
must be accepted without suspicion,
and be carried home to the hearts of
private citizens and governments then
tranquility will flourish again. Iipeace
and charity disappeared because the
sight of heaven had been lost, we must
not despair. The days of rest are re-
turning through the religious awaken.
ing of the people, for at the moment
marked by misery the germs of faith
will revive, for Christ will not abandon
the humanity he redeemed"

THE COUGHLIN TRIAL.
TESTIMONY AS TO THE CAUSE OF
CRONIN'S DEATH.
Michael Dsvitt, the Irish Leader, to
Figure in the Case-Mrs. Foy's
Testimony duplicates Him
in the Murder.

CHICAGO, Dec. 23.--The Coughlin case
opened today with the testimony of DR..
Jameson, who made an autopsy on the
body of Dr. Cronin. as to the apparent
cause of his death.
The man who was yesterday arrested
for shouting out an offer to bribe the jury
to acquit Coughlin was let off with a
severe reprimand this morning, as it
appeared to have been a mere foolish
freak.
DR.. Jameson testified that the ap-
parent cause of death was wounds on
the head and neck. On cross-examina-
.tion he admitted that decomposition
had so far advanced that it was impos-
sible to discover the effect OF the blows
on the brain, and it was not impossible
that Cronin died of poison.
The courtil adjourned until Tuesday.
1t was gossipped around the court
room today that Michael Davitt, the
Irish leader, may yet figure in the trial.
either in person or by affidavit. Ac-
cording to Mre. Foy, letter was rep
resented by Coughlin to have been re-
ceived from Davitt, containing the
sentence, Remove him at all hszerds,
but use your own discretion" Davitt
will be asked for q statement under
oath concerning the matter. The plan
now proposed is to have him appear be-
fore magistrate in London and make
an affidavit that he never wrote letter
advising the removal of Cronin or of
any one else. He will also be asked for
an explanation concerning any letters
he may have written to America con-
tanning the sentence quoted above.

CoDINA.s BOMB.
The Barcelona Anarchist Makes Another
Confession.

The Barcelona Anarchist Makes Another
Confession.
BARCELONA, Dec. 23.-Jose Codina.
the anarchist who had already confessed
that he threw the bomb in the Lyceo
theater, has made another confession.
He says he was selected by the anarch-
ist group last September to assassinate
General Martinez Campos. He went
with Pallas and other anarchists to q re-
view and took position from which he
could easily have accomplished his
design, General Campos being the re-
viewing officer, but at the last moment
his courage failed, as he realized that if
he threw the bomb hundreds OF persons
in the crowd which surrounded the
general would be killed or wounded.
Pallas urged him to throw the bomb,
and when he refused, Pallas, with an
expression of contempt, snatched the
bomb from him, but his nerves were
also overcome for the time, and the de-
lay saved the generals life. Up to the
time OF his execution Pallas maintained
that he was alone in the attempted as
sassination. Codina says he threw the
bomb in the Lyceo theatre to avenge
Pollas' execution.
