End Of the Extra Session.

On Thursday 1t was proposed and agreed
to that the House adjourn next day.
The Chairman OF the Ways and Means
Committee asked that the Committee be
allowed to sit during the recess. The
Republicans objected to this and refused
The adjournment resolution was held up
in the Senate. Chairman Wilson of the
Ways and Means Committee, agreed that
the minority members of the committee
should have ten days to examine the pro-
posed tariff bill to prepare minority re-
port, and then the Republicans agreed to
the adj ournment.
On Friday the "Urgent Deficiency Bill''
was defeated in the House, an uproar fol
lowed and the Speaker adjourned the
House without day while the tellers were
taking vote.
Some talking was done by the Populists
in the Senate in favor of continuing the
session, but when the hour of o'clock
came around it quietly adjourned.
Cleveland sent message to both houses
congratulating them "upon having so sue
cessfully performed the work for which
they were convened and thus ended the
remarkable extra session.
The action of the senate in adj burning
without confirming Mr.. Hornblower of
New York as a justice of the supreme
court is regarded in Washington as the
worst outrage ever perpetrated by that
body in the name Of politics. Not only is
the highest law body in this country ham
pered by this delay, there being a number
of important cases awaiting full bench tt
be heard, but the inaction was due solely
to the desire of Senators Hill and Murphy
to elect the disreputable Maynard to be a
Judge. Both senators disavowed any
personal animosity to Mr.. Hornblower. ant
made no charges against him. But as he
had taken occasion two years ago to de-
nounce their pet, Maynard, for his politi
cal theft, they feared his confirmation
would be construed as a blow to Maynard

THE Forum for November has two strong
articles on the decline of the United States
Senate. To admit that the Senate as a
legislative body is ON the decline is grave
matter. For many years it has been re-
garded az the model legislative body ofthe
world. The object of the trainers of the
Constitution was that II should be CON-
posed of men Of approved wisdom and
virtue, distinguished for their broad states
manship and familiarity with affairs, and
Tor many years that ideal has been attained.
But latterly in many states of this union
the boss of the machine-the political
engineer-has been able either to have
himself elected to the Senate or to dictate
who shall be chosen. In the debates on
the adoption of the Federal Constitution il
was generally agreed that Senator's first
allegiance was due the country at large
that he should do what was best for the
States in the aggregate, and that he should
by no means sacrifice the interests of the
nation for the welfare of the people Of his
own State. That is true Senatorial digni-
ty. But class of small calibred men have
found their way into that august body who
are not only willing hut frantically eager
to sacrifice the general welfare for q
local and temporary gain.-Punxsutawney

MURDER OF THE PAcKwooDs.
The Three Suspects to Be Tried in
Lake County in February.


Lake County in February.
DeLand. Fla, Nov. 1S.-Late yesterday
afternoon the grand jury brought in a
new Indictment against William McRae,
the negro Irwin jenkins. and Marion Gin
ton for the murder of the PackwoOd fam
lily. in December, 1891. An indictment
was found against these parties at the
spring term but. there was some defect in
il, hence the second indictment. 1t IS
very lengthy and carefully wOrded dOcu-
ment, occupying eight or ten legal cap
pages, typewriter. McRae, since the
adjournment of the spring term, has been
confined to the Orange county Jail for
safe keeping, or to prevent any attempt
at lynching in this county He was
brought over by the Orange county sher-
if this morning from Orlando and at ,
o'clock this evening he and Jenkins and
Clinton were brought into court TO plead
to the Indictment. During the reading
of the indictment they stood
up and the MORNING News
correspondent did not notice
culver or trembe from either de
thought MGRae looked rather excited, and
kept looking frequently at Maj St. Clair
Abrams, the eminent criminal lawyer,
who will assist the state in the prosecu-
ton and the man the accused dread.
Judge Foster, who also enjoys high
reputation as a criminal lawyer, sat just
in the rear of the prisoners. ~
At the finishing of the reading of the
indictment the accused pleaded not
guilty. They were asked separately how
they wished to be tried, and each replied
in firm voice, by my God and my
country"
Judge Foster then presented a petition
for a change of venue in which the state
joins and the court ordered the case
transferred to Lake county, and at
Tavares, on the second Tuesday in F'ebru-
airy, 1894, they will be arraigned for trial
There are forty or fifty witnesses in the
case for the state, all of whom were
bound over in the sum of $500 each for
their appearance at Tavares on Feb. II.
