Moral Character Memorial.

OLYMPIA. Feb. 16.-tSpecial. "A rumor
is current tonight that the Turnerites will
cast several complimentary votes tomor-
row. but some of them deny that there is
any such purpose, and declare that not
withstanding Turner'S departure for
Spokane this afternoon, the minority will
continue to vote for him. As a matter Of
fact, Turner's presence here for some time
has not had an exceptionally important
influence in shaping the senatorial situa-
tion. He has simply been on q par with
the other chiefs Of the conspiracy to beat
Allen. His name has been used, to be
sure. but it has not represented a possi-
bility. The minority Republicans utter
it on joint ballot. because it is
their desire to be counted, but no one Of
them believes that the man whom it indi-
Gates can be elected. Such being the case,
the absence or presence of Turner is not
momentous. The anti-Allen campaign
has been placed under the management of
committee of safety" consisting of
Senators Claypool and Richards and Rep
rcsentatives Mentzer, Sherman and Nc
MILAN. Surprise is expressed that no
Spokane man has been placed on this
committee. and it is thought particularly
strange that Tull, who is one of the rad
icals. should have been ignored.
Collin, the Spokane Populist, is tired Of
the deadlock and proposes to vote for a
Republican whenever his vote can elect.
He told the PosT-INTELLIGENCER corre-
spondent tonight that if Senator Allen
should receive within one vote Of election
on any ballot. he would vote for him. Mr..
Collin says that all through the contest he
has been ready to cast his vote for q Re-
publican if it would be decisive. He
would prefer to see Turner elected, be-
cause he is a Spokane man, but
next to Turner he favored Allen.
When asked if would have vo-
ted for Allen last week if the
five Turner men who proposed to change
to Allen. had carr led out their purpose. he
replied in the affirmative. He says that it
was understood in Spokane before the
election that he would vote for Repub.
lican after casting few complimentary
votes for POpulist, and that it was be-
cause of that understanding that he was
elected, as without the Republican votes
he received he would have been defeated.
He has continued to vote with tho Popu-
lists. he says, simply because the oppor-
tunity has not yet been offered him to
make his vote break the deadlock.

New YORK. Feb. 16.-Negotiations be-
ween the Panama Railroad Company and
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
looking towards an agreement upon some
contracts by which the two companies can
cooperate have been pending for over a
week. reply came las, evening from the
Pacific Mail company which amounts to
complete failure of the negotiations. but
which gives the Panama officials some
reason TO believe that in future there is
possibility of an arrangement being made
which will be acceptable to both parties.
Secretary Oppenhelm. OF the Panama COM
pany, said this evening, however. that the
companies are on better terms than ever
before, and they feel now that in the near
future the Pacific Mail ana Panama COM
panies will be acting together on terms
beneficial to both and to transcontinental
commerce generally. He says it was the
influence of the Southern Pacific people
in the steamship conn pany that defeated
the negotiati ions.

WAsHINGToN City, Feb. 16-I Special. l.
Senator Squire today refuted the state
ments that have been 50 freely circulated
that he was not interested in the improve
ment of the Columbia river for the benefit
of Western Washington. He not only
made a speech in favor of the full amount
asked for the completion of the work at
the Cascades, but he pulled in number Of
his personal friends to vote with the Gre
gon senators in favor of what they asked
for. Senator Squire replied to the re-
marks Of some senators, that only small
portion Of Oregon would be benefited by
the Cascade locks. by saying that Wash
ington was also to be benefited, and that
the portage roads around the Dalles. with
the navigation of the upper Columbia,
would prove a valuable thing to the people
of Eastern Washington, and speaking for
the people of that section, he wanted an
appropriation made which would open the
river at the earliest possible moment.

TIE Columbian souvenir COIN scheme
is evidently going to prove successful
and will bring into the worlds fair
treasury at least five million dollars.
The method of disposing of the SOU
venir coins adopted by the commission
seems to be very satisfactory one, as
it precludes the possibility of any ex-
tensive speculation in them. Indeed, If
everyone DESTROYS of obtaining a SOU
venir would promptly put in his appli-
cation there would be no speculation at
all and any future appreciation of value
would be wholly due to the fact that
the number of coins is strictly limited
to two million five hundred thousand,
not an excessive quantity when it is
borne in mind that this is n nation
of sixty-five million people and that the
mania for coin and medal collections
extends all over the world.

GLADs1oNE's GREAT SPEECH.
Declared by Many Matchless Effort
Congratulations for The Premier.

Declared by Many Matchless Effort
Congratulations for The Premier.
LONDON, Feb. 14.-Naught but praise
is heard of Mr.. Gladstone's speech in in
Producing the Home Rule bill. Justice
Harlan, of the United States Supreme
Court, in conversation with Mr.. Glad
stones secretary in the lobby Of the
house, declared that the entire speech
was matchless, and that the peroration
was the most beautiful in pathos he had
ever heard.
Among the distinguished auditors in
the House were the Prince of Wales, the
Duke of York, and the Duke of Teck,
who, seated above the clock, listened in
tentlY to the speech
On the table lay the Premier's lozenge
pot-an item Of all his long speeches.
The presence of q lamp to aid his failing
sight added pathos to the scene.
Mr.. Gladstone began in q slow, meas
ured voice, his evident intention being to
husband his resources. But his voice,
though fine at the start, weakened mani
testify during the preliminary sentences
Many eloquent passages were wasted
upon the audience, owing to impatient
curiosity to hear the details of the
scheme Indeed the introd uction suf-
fered from prolixity. Hence. by the
time the speaker arrived at the provisions
OF the bill his voice had lowered consider
ably, and the financial statements were
ALMOST inaudible beyond the table.
He recovered his voice somewhat, how
ever, during the peroration, which was
remarkably fine and impressive.
At the conclusion OF his speech Mr..
Gladstone was overwhelmed with con-
| CALCULATIONS.
He took tea at the House of Commons,
| and, after resting an hour, drove homo in
| high spirits. He dined with his family,
| and maintained his vivacious mood dur
| ing the entire evening.
Throughout tue time Mr.. Gladstone
was speaking Messrs. Balfour, Goschen,
Chaplin, Bartlett and other prominent
members of the opposition took copious
notes.
Mr. Gladstone entered the House of
| Commons at half past three o'clock.
Every Liberal and Irish Nationalist in
the House stood up, and greeted him with
] prolonged and enthusiastic cheers.
When Mr.. Gladstone arose at forty
three minutes past three, to introduce
the Homo Rule bill there was another
demonstration so earnest, so enthusiastic
| and irrepressible that it was several
| minutes before he could be heard.
Ny. Gladstone spoke in part as fol
lows.
II may, without improperly, remind
the House that the voices which usually
pleaded the cause OF Irish self-govern
ment In Irish affairs have, within these
| walls during the last seven years, been
almost entirely mute.
IL return, therefore, to the period O
1886, when u proposition Of this kind was
( submitted on the part of the Government
of the day, and I beg to remind thu

Cadwalaoer for tho Court of St. James

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.--It is stated
that John Cadwalader, ex-Collector of the
port Of Philadelphia, has been offered
his choice of two positions in the Cabinet,
namely, Postmaster General or Attorney
General. Mr.. Cadwalader would prefer
