CHEYENNE, Wy, Feb. 18.-When the
joint session of the state assembly met
at noon to ballot for senator, motion
to adjourn sine die was carried by two
votes. The Democrats were afraid that

the winner. The governor Will ap-
point senator. The house then ad-
journed sine die without having the
speaker sign the journal and leaving
over one hundred bills pending.

Opposition to Annexation.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 18.-The Hawaiian
annexation is giving its promoters some
trouble. 1t is doubtful whether the
necessary two-thirds of the senate can
be found to agree with the treaty. There
is more talk against it than before, and
it is the claim of the opposition that the
more there is known the stronger the

THE WAR rs OVER.
AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN WAR
RING FACTIONS IN KANSAS

And Peace Now Reigns in the Capital
City of the Grasshopper State--Im-
! prisoned Republicans Celebrate
Their Release by a Big Love Feast.
| Topeka, Kan, Feb. 17.-Peace reigns
supreme in the capital city of the
Grasshopper state. The spectre of that
worst of conflicts, civil war, no
longer stalks abroad. Hostilities have
been averted without the shedding of
blood. The taps of the drummer boys
and the steady tramp of militiamen as
they march down Kansas avenue is all
that remains as a reminder of what
might have been. Like the ruler of
France in ancient history, Governor
Lewelling has marched his men up the
hill and marched them down again.
Republicans Claim Victory.
The membersof the Illegal house" as
the Republicans call themselves, regard
the outcome of the difficulty in the
light of signal victory. They have
secured all that they were contending
for-the right to meet and transact
their business in the hall of the house
of representatives, and the reference of
the question at issue to the courts.
Meanwhile the Populist house is out
side, but its members do not by any
means conclude that they are worsted.
On the contrary they claim that the
situation has returned to the original
status, and this solely on account of
their disinclination to
Mar the Good Name of the State
by insisting on a course that would in |
inevitably involve the shedding of
blood. Governor Lewelling himself as
serts that to the magnanimity of the
Populists in failing to insist upon their |
legal rights is due alone to the peacable |
turn of affairs. Thus both sides are vo-
ciferously declaring:
''The victory is ours"
Militia Disbanded.
A conference between Brigadier Gen
eral Hettinger and Sheriff Wilkerson |
took place at o'clock. 1t was agreed |
that the militia should at once be with
drawn from duty and that the sheriff
should disband his deputies, save a
squad of eighteen, twelve of Swhom
We're to keep the swarms of curiosity
mongers out of the halls and corridors,
the others to perform similar service in
the state house grounds. This agree
ment was satisfactory all around. The
Populist house remained in session
throughout the day, at Trades Assembly
hall. A resolution was adopted declar-
ing an adjournment until April, but in
this the senate will refuse to concur.

room had dropped Sl60 at game of 25-cent

again appeared at the lunch room. Negotia-

he would like to get some OF his

ever, and after this sitting Mr. Mill
ler's roll was $50 short. That was not
