ROACH Is WlLl.lN'.

Senator Roach has expressed himself
in favor 81 an investigation IL the
charges II embezzlement preferred
against him by Senator Hoar. lie
would have done - before had not his
colleagues advised him il would be an
afYront to the dignity Of that august
body. a new senator is not expected In
say anything until after he becomes &C.
climated 10 the chill air Of dignity which
pervades the senate.
Now that he has expressed willing
Ness to be- investigated his colleagues in
terpose the objection that the senate
has no jurisdiction In inquire into his
private affairs antedating his election
and being in nowise connected there
with. This objection will be removed
before the investigation will be pro-
cceded with and it's apples to doughnuts
the democrats will vote 70 sustain the
objection.
Roach's action recalls a dramatic in
cident in the house. When the credit
mobilier sensation shook the country
with excitement few men in public life
escaped the faint IL suspicion. Among
others that suffered most from the
malicious imputations Of dishonesty in
accepting the stock Of the company was
the late beloved Blaine. When the
house had received notice Of the formal
charges. Mr.. Blaine. who was then
speaker. left the chair 81 the house and.
taking tho floor. invited the most
searching investigation Of himself and
his relations to the company. lie after
ward appointed Judge Poland. demo
crat. chairman 81 the committee.
1t il a matter Of history that Blaine
was completely exonerated by the find
ings 81 his political enemies. but he was
ever afterwards the target for malignant
abuse in consequence Of the suspicion.
Roach has emulsted the example ~
Blaine in demanding an investigation
What the end will be nobody can fore.
SEQ but the democrats may be relied
upon to smother the investigation il
possible.

PUBLIC PROPERTY.
Bell Telephone Patents Have Expired.
They Have Others.

Bell Telephone Patents Have Expired.
They Have Others.
WASHINGTON, March .8-The principal
patent of the Bell Telephone company
has just expired, and st is probable that,
within the next few days host of COM
peting concerns will spring up in differ
emit parts of the country. The patent
which has expired is based upon the
transmission of sound by the undulat-
ing current, and is the famous fifth
claim of the Bell monopoly. which has
withstood scores of legal onslaughts
that have been made upon it during the
past decade.
Still Have q Monopoly.
The opinion has gained considerable
currency that hereafter the Bell COM
pany would be on an equal footing with
any other concern that might choose to
go into the telephone business, but this
is far from the case, and it is not at all
likely that the expiration of the patent
in question will tend to loosen the grip
of the company upon the telephone
using public. For years the company
has had an agent in the patent Office at
Washington, and every valuable device
in telephoning has been purchased.
While the foundation patent has ex-
pired, there are a large number of
auxiliary devices, such as the carbon
transmitter, the automatic arrangement
for closing and opening the current
through the local transmitter, and the
universal switchboard, that are essen
tial to the operation of large exchanges
and are covered by the Bell patents.
The independent companies will be able
to operate comparatively small ex-
changes without using the Bell patents
and paying the extortionateroyalty that
is charged for them.

SE PAUL, March s.-A special to The
Globe from Sioux City says: w. L.
Wilkins, a prominent business man here
who became involved in real estate OPP
erations few days ago, quietly sold all
the property he could get rid of and left
the city with the cash. The property
included block worth SEC, 1000. for
which it is said he got $25, 900, which be
sold to w. P. Manley and G.. d. Oshrue.
The London and Sioux City Finance
company has filed attachments to So
cure claims for $4,000 against Wilkins.
The attachments cover property he was
unable to sell. Wilkins is said to have
gone to California. His liabilities are
estimated at 100000. D. T. Hedges and
the London and Sioux City company
are the heaviest creditors. Wilkins had
always borne good reputation here.

DEBORAH, la,
DEBORAH, Ia, March s.-The wrest-
ling match between Jack King of st.
Paul, and Farmer Burns of Rock
Island, attracted one of the largest
crowds that has ever gathered in De
corah for such an event. Early in the
day people began to arrive and by even
ing the streets were crowded. Betting
was not very lively, but considerable
money was put up without odds. At
ter several preliminary bouts of spar
ring and wrestling by local athletes,
time was called OF 9:33 and the great
match began. The wrestling was all
on the defensive. Burns forced the
work almost entirely, pumping Kings
wind several times. King tried to get
a hold on Burns, but could not do So.
After wrestling two hours and five
minutes King gave up the bout, The
men were down on the floor but once.
The perspiration dried in on King and
he became sick and when time was
called for the second bout he came up
but clearly was not in condition. After
IA ga min utes Burns threw King and
the latter gave up the match.

SAN FRANCISCO, March S.-Tbe
schooner Carrier Dove arrived late IA
the night from Honolulu, bringing adj
vices up to Feb. 18. An incident that
occurred on the night of Feb. 16 came
near resulting in serious consequences.
A party Of sailors from the British cor.
vette Garnet were on shore at liberty
and visited saloon where number of
the United States steamer Mohicsn,s
men had assembled. The Britons began
to sing ssRule Britannia" and then
made sneering remarks about the Yam
KEGS and the stars and stripes. The
Americans lined up for fight, and but
for the interference of petty officer of
the Mohican there would have been a
pitched battle. AS it was, one of the
American tars drove his fist into the
face of Briton, telling him to the
floor. A crowd of Kanakas had gath
cred during the dispute ready to take a
hand in the row.
Minister Stevens says all his informa-
ton leads to the belief that the natives
will support any action the United
States may adopt.
The United States man-of-war ALI
ance arrived at Honolulu Feb. 16 from
Samoa, increasing the American naval
strength there to three vessels.
