While the United States senatorial
race seems to have beeh swallowed
up in the speakership contest yet
there is still considerable talk going
ON as to who will represent Texas in
the United States senate. While
nearly everyone you speak to will un.
hesitatingly say that there is no
doubt but that Mills will be re-el ect-
ed, yet there seems to be an undercur-
rent of opinion that something may
happen between now and the time tor
the election. By some great deal OF
Importance attached to the presence
OF ex Governor Ireland in Austin just
at this particular time. 1t is true that
majority OF the legislature is COM
p sed of Hogg men ana men who are
also instructed for Mills. 1t is the be-
lief of some that things will be allowed
to move along quietly until about a
week before the election, when Ire
land will announce his candidacy.
Then it will be seen
that the instructed Mills
men in east Texas will
flop and join with the West Texas
men, thereby causing the election of
Ireland, with the understanding that
two years hence, when Coke's time
expires, the West will return the
compliment and send Governor Hog
to Washington. At present Central
Texas has all the pie, and the above,
it is claimed by these parties, is a
scheme being concocted by tie East
and West to bring about division.
Will it work d? Wait and see.

In the Senate.

WASHINGTON CITY, Aug. 28.-There
was small attendance in the senate at
the opening, the other cid of the cap
ital being the chief point Of interest.
Sherman gave notice that he would adj
dress the senate on silver Wednesday
and Wolcott on Thursday.
Platt reported from the committee on
Indian affairs a bill to allow certain
Cherokees having equities in the Cher
okee strip to purchase their holdings at
the same price as white settlers; passed.
Hill reported from the judiciary COM
mittee bill o repeal the federal cleo
ton law; calendar.
The bill allowing banks to increase
their circulation up to par value of
bonds deposited by them was taken up,
the question being on the amendment
offered by Cockrell for the redemption
OF such per cent. bonds as may be
made and payment therefor in new
issue of treasury notes. The amend
ment was rejected-veas %, nays 80.
Cockrell then offered an amendment
authorizing the holders OF any United
States bonds to deposit them and to re-
ceive in exchange legal tender equal to
the value of the bonds, the bonds to be
held in the treasury subject to redemp-
ton in the same amount of legal tender
notes, which are then to be destroyed.
No interest is to be paid on the bonds
while they are held in the treasury, but
when they are again withdrawn interest
is to be paid less Il per cent. per an
mum.
Discussion on this amendment was
interrupted at o'clock, when the bill
was laid aside and the Lee Mantle case
laid before the senate, the senate, the
questian being on Vance's motion to lay
on the table MandOason's motion to re-
consider the vote whereby the senate de-
cided last eek that Mantle was not en-
titled to his seat. The vote resulted :
Yeas 81, nays %, so the motion to lay
on the table was agreed to. A vote
WAS then taken on the original resolu-
tion as amended, and it was agreed to,
yeas 81, hays 80. The effect of the vote
is to declare Mantle not entitled to a
seat

Opium in PetticOats.

PORT TOWNSEND, Aug. 30.-Hattie
Stratton, an accomplished young wo-
man OF Port Angeles, was arrested on
the steamer City of Kingston. from
Victoria today, with nine pounds o
opium in her possession. She made
frequent trips between Puget Sound
ports and British Columbia lately, which
prompted Customs Officers Learned to
approach her and asked if she had any
opium concealed on her person. She
replied in the affirmative and produced
eighteen cans of opium from the folds
of her dress. She was released on $3.50
bonds. Miss Stratton belongs to a
highly respectable family in Port
Angeles who it is said are having diff
culties to raise the money to pay for a
lot on the government reserve and the
glrl went INTO the smuggling business
unknown to her parent, to earn money,

SnOt While Escaping

RATHDRUM, Aug. 25.-Dsnnis Collins
bound over for shooting Section Fore
man Martin Coleman and another man
at Hauser junction last June, broke Jail
last night by digging through the wall
near a window casing. AS sooR as the
escape became known Sheriff Costello
offered $50 reward for recapture. A
large number of men including W. s.
GIL and Curt Sheffield, started out in
every direction. Gill overlook the fug-
tive and he surrendered without resist
anca. The prisoner was put on horse
and all three started for Rathdrum, when
Collins threw himself from the horse
and tried to escape in the brush.
He refused to obey command to halt
when both his captors fired and Collins
fell with his thigh shattered. Physicians
pronounce the wound fatal. The sheriff
exonerated the men who did the shoot
ing, as he had cautioned them that Col
Inns was a desperate man.

except in cases where fraud is proven,
No fraud is even alleged in the sus-
pensions now being made. Soon after
the present administration came into
power a ruling was made by Hoke
Smith that reversed the construction
put upon the act Of 1890 by the repub-
lican administration, and under that
ruling the suspensions are being made
a procedure which it lie believed the
courts will declare illegal.
Representative Cultivate, of Ohio,
was guilty OF very humanity act, while
Representative Hepburn, OF Iowa, was
speaking in the house on the silver
question, by attempting in an interrupt
ion OF Mr., Hepburn to drag e1-Secre-
tary Fosters personal financial troubles
into the debate. Mr.. Hepburn merely
said; "1hat is very unkind reference
to friend of yours and friend of
mine" 1t was enough. Cultivate
blushed and sat down, amid storm of
well deserved Kisses from the floor and
the galleries.
Those interested in the navy are
pleased at the selection Of Representa-
tive Amos Cummings, Of New York City,
to be chairman of the house committee
on naval affairs. Although Tammany
democrat, Mr. Cummings earned the
right during the fifty first and fifty Sc
cond congress to DO classsd as a man of
broad guage ideas Upon all matters con-
corning our navy and our ocean COM

customed to accusing the republican

ant ones, from the southland forever

Senator Hill evidently intends to dis
pute Senator Germans right to the
democratic leadership of the senate.
THIS disposition was first publicly
shown on Wednesday when Mr. Hill
sharply replied to Mr. Germans argu-
ment in favor of referring Senator PEI
fer's resolution, calling upon the secre-
tary of the treasury for information as
to whether certain national banks were
violating the law in refusing to prompt
~ pay checks of depositors, to the
finance committee, instead of voting
upon it at once, and again today when
he made a speech in favor of the repeal
OF the purchasing clause of the silver law.

CAPT. L. w. BAUGHMAN was called to
Portland Tuesday. The company have
asked him to submit plans for new
boat to be put on this run. Capt.
Baughman's idea is to build a much
longer boat than the Annie Faxon. A
long narrow boat with the proper me-
chlnery will never be stopped by the
swift water nor have to line over single
rapid. The bow and stern OF the Fax
on's hull are to be used in the construc-
ton of the new boat, and the engine and
driv ng shafts can be utilized also. The
hull will be built new in the center and
much longer according TO Capt, Baugh-
mans ideas. 1t will be furnished with
a new steel boiler that will allow 1870
pounds of steam. With this equipment
the company will have the best boat ever
put on the upper river. Work on the
new boat will BEGIN at once,-Lewiston

Bearer Grain Bags.

PORTLAND, Or, Aug. 29,-There is
every prospect for higher prices in the
grain bag market, and not lower, as was
supposed. OF the recent arrival Of
100000 sacks at San Francisco four
fifths are owned by two firms who are
operating jointly. BY persistent bear
tactics they forced down tie prices, and
the remaining fifth is being contracted
for rapidly. When they are disposed of
the market will be advanced, as the sup
ply In sight is inadequate for tie de-
mand. The Portland market is bare OF
bags, and dealers are unable to get any
except at greatly enhanced figures. No
more Calcutta bags are known to be en-
route to this coast,

In view of the present ruinonsly low
prices beng offered for wheat, the wheat
producers of eastern Washington are ag-
itating the question Of law for stay OF
execution. There Is at present a law
which covers the ground, the conditions
Of which are that stay of execution can
be had for from thirty days to six
months, according to the amount OF
claim. providing security is given in
double the amount OF the claim and
costs, II farmers were forced to sell
their crop at present prices, it would
but little more than pay cost of produc-
ton, and they could not meet all OF their
obligations, whereas if there could be a
rest for few weeks in the matter of en-
forcing payments all around, till wheat
comes up to something like fair figure,
the merchant and farmer alike would
come out IN much better shape. AS it
is the merchant is forced to press the
farmer for settlement in order that he
may be able to liquldate with the whole
sale houses.

Special Correspondence.
WASHINGTON, August, rs 1893

WASHINGTON, August, rs 1893.
Speaker Crisp has settled the nature
of the tariff bill that will be reported
from tn house committee on ways and
means by the appointment of Wilson, of
W. Va, chairman of that committee.
Mr.. Wilson's free trade sentiments are
well known and he says the committee
will at once begin work on tariff bill.
1t does not, however, necessarily follow
that tue free trade bill to be prepared
law; 1t may get through the house, as
the democratic majority in that body is
so large that few dissenters cannot
materially affect the final result, but in
the senate things are different. The
democratic majority is small, and some
of the democratic senators have privately
informed republicans that they will not
support a bill making radica! cuts in
the tariff,
The silver speech OF Senator Voorhees,
has been much talked about since it
was delivered. 1t was in some respects
one Of the most remarkable heard in
congress for long time, as well as one
of the most dangerous. While profess
ing the greatest admiration for the ad-
ministratlon the Indiana senator de-
nounced the administrations pension
policy and advocated the widest sort OF
financial initiation, going further in some
particulars than the populists, and ad
vocating the overthrow of the national
banking system and the putting OF wild
cat state banks in its place. He also sd-
vocates an income tax. II that speech
was intended to be friendly to the ad-
ministration Mr.. Cleveland may vel, be
excused for exclaiming "Save me from
my friends" 1t is said that Senator
Voorhees, purposely made his speech rad
zeal, in order to influence certain south
ern senators to vote for the uncondition-
al repeal Of the purchasing clause OF the
Sherman silver law, and it is said further
that several of them have agreed to vote
for the repeal bill upon the promise of
Senator Voorhees, that their views should
be met in financial bill to be reported
from the senate finance committee at an
early day.
In addition to the investigation pro-
posed by Senator Gallinger's resolution
of the pension suspensions now being
made by the administration, Col. Charles
