MILLER's APPOINTMENT.

1t Was Something of a Surprise
to South DakOtans.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The South
Dakota leaders were startled today when
they learned that the president had Sc
ected Ezra w. Miller to succeed W. B.
Sterling, of Huron. as United States dis
trict attorney. All admitted that Mr..
Miller is an excellent attorney of high
character and ability, but he had no
such Endorsements as the other candi-
dates, said one of the leading South Da-
kotans. But Mr.. Miller was wiser than
his rivals. While they were securing
the Endorsements of the politi-
clans, he w as getting the backing
of the leading attorneys of
his state, and while the
politicians were divided between Will
lam Duff Haynie. of Rapid City; L. c.
Whitcher, of HighmOre, and p. w. n.
Quigley, of Huron, the lawyers and
Judges were one. When the appoint
ment was made public some of the boys
attributed it to Senator Kyle. "YOu
are mistaken" he said when asked. Il
was as much surprised as any of you."
Hayne was Kyle's candidate. Mr.
Miller is an lex" having been in the
Huron land Office during President
Cleveland's first term. His appoint
ment has made a great many men who.
are strongly indorsed feel that things
are very uncertain. The president evil
dently means to do as he said when he
promised that all applicants would be
given q show.

Deprecate the Action

Sneeial To the Globe

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-After vain
ly endeavOrlng to persuade the reputa-
BILE newspapers of the country to 1oin in
the persecution Of Senator Roach, of
North Dakota, the crowd behind the
whole thing today induced Senator
Hoar, of Massachusetts, to offer a resolu-
tion directing the committee on prlvl-
Ieges and elections to make an investi-
CATION of the allegations that have been
made. Before doing this several papers
were informed that the Republican SEN
ators had caucused on the matter, and
that the Massachusetts senator had
been directed to offer the resolution.
This is entirely and wholly false. The
Republican senators have not considered
the matter at all, and Senator Hoai acted
entirely of his own voltion when he
sent the resolution. AS matter OF fact
many of the Republican senators are
opposed to the whole matter, with the
exception of Hoar and the notorious
-"Tom" Power, of Montana. The latter
is so we'll known in the West that his
mouthings
Cut More Figure East,
where he is unknown, than they do in
the localities that know him as gov
ernment contractor and the fraudulent
holder of a seat in the senate. Senator
Hoar, the pious and senile Wanamaker,
of Massachusetts,, was able to get into
narrow bed with Matt Quay and never
complain: and yet, knowing the strict
integrity and high character of Senator
Roach for at least the Gfteen. years
previous to his election to thosenate,
he would join in an effort to prosecute
{ him for something that happened when
Roach was young man, and this on
the ground of statements backed by no
reputable man. No one is making
charges against Senator Roach and Eo
one will make any. Everything that
has appeared has been from some one
afraid to come out into the light of day.
Knowing this, Senator Roach declines
to discuss the matter until the affair
reaches the committee, when he will
bring confusion to the men who are be-
hind this thing. The Democratic men,
bers of the senate are Indignant over
the resolution, and if the Republicans
back the Massachusetts man they will
start at least four similar investigations,
and by the most convincing evidence
show the hypocrisy and maliciousness
of the crusade now being waged against
Senator Roach.

saw. He was in favor of passing law
to cut down the price of coal. He be.
lieved he was the only man who did not
come to the legislature with regrets.
He had come because he wanted to do
so, and the only sacrifice he made was a
few hundred dollars to get elected.
Capt. Henry A. Castle responded to
call and INDUCED in "reminiscences in
the history of st. Paul and compliment
ed the legislators Oh their work.
The People Want 1t.
Judge S. }. Abbott was called upon by
T. ii. Kelly and spoke in a serious
vein. He said that the voting OF g.
100000 for capitol building is not be-
ing done simply because the citizens of
st. Paul want it, but because the people
want it. He would not have voted for
it If it had not been for the urging of st.
Paul people. He declared that the peO-
pie want the Twin Cities to grow to
millions III population, and that the cap
itol bill was popular measure all over
the pralrieS, and he hoped the senate
would concur in the action of the house.
Hon. Louis Sikorski spoke on the
merits of his Chinese bill. He declared
that it was disagreeable to see Chinese
wearing their shirts on the outside of
their pants, and that is his excuse for
introducing the bill. Mr.. SikOrSki was
IN good humor, and entertained the
company with his witty sayings.
Fletcher Repents.
Hon. George II. Fletcher said that he
believed he was right in voting against
the capitol bill, but he had lived long
enough to prove oftimeS that he was
mistaken. He spoke In very compii-
mentary terms of the efforts of P. Il.
Kelly.
Hon. l.. 5. Tyler was introduced as
man who voted for the capitol bill. He
said that he does not need to explain to
his people at home why he voted for the
capitol bill.
Hon. George W. Blocker. of hoop
skirt bill fame, declined to respond to
calls for speech on the bill which has
made him famous.
hon. L. b. German. of St. Cloud.
spoke in logical vein OH some of the
principal measures before the legisla-
ture, aud especially Oh the merits of the
bill providing for a good capitol build
ing. He said that he had voted for a
bill making an appropriation for the
state university that will place it on a
footing second to none in the United
States. He declared that he would not
fear to explain to his constituents his
course in the legislature.
President Footner said that the club
did not design to bring the legislature
there to discuss the capitol matter, but
to entertain them and enjoy their fell
lOwship.
Maj. w. W. Cooley was called upon
for a recitation, and after an intro
ductIon explaining the occasion for

NO STANDING IN COURT.
Acts Directed by Alleged Spirits
Decided Not to BE Legal.

Decided Not to BE Legal.
CHICAGO, March 2s.-Judge Collins
today decided that acts directed by
alleged spirits are not legal. On thi
ground he held that deeds of property
made by Ira b. Eddy to Ellen McGua
are void. Eddy was an eccentric old
citizen of Chicago, who believed in
spiritualism. The McGua woman was
one of the best known spiritualists and
clalrvoyantS in the city, and was pat
roniZed by great many well known
business and professional men, includ
ing the murdered millionaire Smell.
Eddy met her about twenty years ago,
and was infatuated with her alleged
ability to commune with departed peo-
pie. She left her husband, Edward
McGua, and went to live with
Eddy. He squandered most of his
fortune upon her, being told to do so by
statements from her that the spirits
directed it. She finally induced him to
deed to her the remainder of his prop
erty, situated at 66 and IS Fulton street.
The woman died in 1889, and Eddy
committed suicide three months later.
that he might join her in the land of the
spirits. His heirs then began proceed
ings to have the deed set aside on the
ground of undue influence, and also
because he was crazy. At this juno
ture the woman's husband, who had
tamely submitted to Eddy's usurpation
of his place in her affections, stepped
in. He wanted to have the deed de-
clared valid to enable him TO secure
portion of the property.
''My theological ideas may be de-
ficIent." said Judge Collins. but must
say that L do not believe in spiritual
ism. | find that the deed was executed
while Eddy was insane, and through

SENATE REORGANIZATION.
The Fight to Be Transferred to
Omen Session.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The reso-
lutions for the selection of officers OF the
senate-W illiam r. Cox, of North Caro-
lima, as secretary; Richard j. Bright, of
Indiana, as sergeant-at-arms, and Rev.
Mr.. Milburn as chaplain-coupled with
conditions that they shall not enter tine
discharge of their duties until the 30th
of June next, to which time the present
incumbentS are to remaiiFin office, were
offered to the senate today and went
over till tomorrow. The introduction of
the resolutions means transfer of the
struggle from secret session to open.
sessions of the senate. All offers
of compromise having failed, and
all attempts to adjust the matter
amicably in private having come to
naught. the fight is now to be waged i'll
the open field. Just what the outcome
will be cannot be predicted. but there is
reason to believe that both sides are
half-hearted in the matter, and it is safe
to say that a majority of the senators
really do not feel sufficient interest in
the reorganization to make very spirit
ed contest on either side of the PROPOSE
ton.

BISMARCK VERY ILL.
Blood and Iron Send Him
to Bed.
He Is Suffering From Neuralgia
and Insomnia, and Is in
Critical Condition.

NEW YORK, March ga morning
sides at No. 127 East Tenth street, this
city, has received alarming advices re-
gardIng Prince Bismarck's health. The
paper says that DR.. Dorm was for many
years an aide-de-camp on Count Won
Motke'S staff and since the Franco
Prussian war was stationed in
London as an attache of the German
legation. He has for two years been in
New York city as the American cor
respondent of the Ham mburger Mach
richten and other leading German
journals. A cablegram was received by
DR.. Dorm yesterday morning. 1t was
partly in cipher and was translated by
the recipient, and reads as follows:
"Berlin. March 26.-Prince Bismarck,
the born chancellor, is in a critical con-
dition. He has been suffering for sew
eral weeks with neuralgia and insom-
MIA, and his do ctors have not been able
this time to conquer the two old
enemies, which attack him every
winter. His strength and vigor
are giving away rapidly, his
pulse is very weak and his appetite eX-
ceedlngly bad. In spite of all this, it is
very difficult to keep the patient in bed
and tranquil. AS soon as he awakeS be
wants to get up. and he will not give
rest until the Princess Bismarck, who
is herself sick, comes to his bedside to
read to him his correspondence and
newspapers from Berlin and Hamburg.
This morning he had fit, and his two
hor,
wired for. His doctors wanted to re-
move him to better climate, but he will
not listen to them, and insists on re-
ceiving his friends on the 1st of April,
his birthday. Emperor Wilhelm re-
ceiveS daily bulletins"
The paper continues:
"EXplaining this phase of the great
Germans condition, Mr. Dorm said that
the physicians of Bismarck had much
to contend with in the inflexible will Of
the patient. Even at the present time,'
said DR.. Dorm, the prince refuses to be
limited in his consumption of wine and
brandy. and his condition has grown
more and more serious. 1t must be re-
membered that even .herculean frame
and tremendous nervous energy will
yiefd to the advance of Old age. Prince
Bismarck will be seventy-eight years
old on the 1st day of April. and the ter
rife mental strain he has endured as
the prime minister of three German
emperors would have killed a dozen
ordinary men. My reason for
believing what my usually reliable
correspondent sends is very simple
one. l can appreciate more fully than
Americans how impossible it is for the
German newspapers to print anything
about the emperor. the royal family
or Prince Bismarck, especially such
alarming rumors as the message
L have received. in addition to
troubles above noted the prince
is troubled with varicOse veins, due to
enfeebled circulation of his blood. is
impossible to predict intelligently just
how long Prince Bismarck will live, but
have had recent information about his
health which would tend to preclude the
possibility of his rallying.' "

Resting in the Vanderbilt Vault.
NEW YORK. March 2S.-The funeral
of the late Elliott f. Shepard took place
today from the Fifth Avenue PreSby-

deceased, at which Rev. DR.. John Hall
officiated, and only the members of the
family and tine pall-bearerS were pres

was conducted by the pastor, Rev. John
Hall. There was profuSion Of
floral offerings, of more than
usaul magnificence, surrounding the
altar, directly in front of which the
caSket containing the remains rested on
a raised dais. As the coffin was carried
into the church the organist played
Mendelssohn's professional funeral
march In Z minor. After brief and
earnest prayer by the pastor the con-
gregation arose and joined in singing
the hymn "Asleep in Jesus" DR.. Hall
selected as a text |. Cor, ". 20. At the
close CT the eulogy the hymn My Faith
Looks Up to Thee" was sung, and the
mournerS left the church. The remains
were taken from the church to the foot

special boat was waiting to convey them
to New Dorp, Staten Island, where they
were placed in the Vanderbilt vault in
