CLARK OR CARTER.
One of These May Be Elected
Senator Today at Helena.

Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Feb. 12.-Since w. A.
Clark's close call OH the senatorship
yesterday the Republicans and Dixon
Democrats have been in close consulta-
ton, and numerous conferences have
taken place in the rooms of Marcus
DAILY, the copper king. 1t is rumored g
combination has been agreed on that if
the Republicans will vote solidly for
Lee Mantle or Tom Carter tomorrow,
enough of w. W. DiXOn's men Will join
with them to elect. The Clark men are
confident, however, and say they will
elect their candidate without the aid of
any anti-caucus Democrats. Clark only
needed three votes yesterday, and it is
said he would have gotten two of them
from the Republicans and the other
from Dixon man on another ballot.
They say that none of the votes he got
from the Republicans will leave him.
and that those who wanted to vote for
him yesterday, il a second ballot had
been taken, will DO to him the first
thing tomorrow.
1t is claimed. however, tEat Tom Car
ter can keep the Republican ranks
nearly solid and get what votes he may
lack from the two Populists and Dixon
Democrats. Mantle, it is known, can
not get the two Populsts nor all the
Republicans. 1t is also known that, of
all the Republicans, Daily would prefer
to see Carter, and it is generally COIL
coded that with the copper king it is
anybody to beat Clark. A great many
members have been paired and will not
attend tomorrow. With full member
ship the joint ballot stands: Repub-
licans SO, Clark men 26 Including one
PopuIisN, and the Dixon men
- Including two POpulists). Tierney,
one of the Clark Democrats, has left
him Oh account of alleged broken prom
ises on legislation. but so long as he
stays away his place will be taken by
his Republican colleague, Benson, who
opposes the measure that Tierney ia
vors. On the basis of yesterdays vote
it will take one Dixon Democrat. who is
ready to leave him, and two Republic
ans to elect Clark. 1t will require all
the Republicans who stood by Mantle
and eight of the Dixon men to elect
either Carter, Mantle or Dixon. That
is the situation now, but surprises are
liable to be sprung at any moment.

GRESH AM IS CERTAIN.
No Doubt About the Judges Ac-
CeDtanCe.


New YORK, Feb. 12.-It is reported
in this city on authority which cannot
be questioned that Judge Walter O.
Gresham has accepted the portfolio
of state IN Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet.
1t will be remembered that Don NJ.
Dickinson made flying trip to Chicago
week ago. and, after an interview with
Judge Gresham, returned and reported
the results to Mr.. Cleveland. 1t is now
said that Mr.. Dickinson obtained Judge
Gresham's views OH some of the most
important questions which will come
before the next administration,
and stated President Cleveland's
desire that Gresham should be his
premier. After Mr.. Dickinson's return
a formal tender of the portfolio of state
was made by letter, land Judge Gresham,
after careful consideration, accepted.
II is practically settled that John q.
Carlisle Will be secretary of the treasury
and Daniel s. Lamont secretary of war.
1t is also reported that Hoke Smith,
the editor of the Atlanta Journal, and
the original Cleveland man in Georgia,
will be secretary of agriculture. Wilson
S. Bissell, OF Buffalo. formerly law
partner of Mr.. Cleveland, is now slated
for postmaster general instead of attor-
ney general. ii. A. Herbert, chairman
of the naval committee OF the house, is
mentioned as probable secretary of the
navy, and there is talk of Congressman
w. l.. Wilson, of West Virginia, for sec
rotary of the interior.

Burlingame. laborer, was shot and
stabbed at o'clock last night in lone
ly spot two miles north of Port Henry.
He died at 6 o'clock this morning. In

capped. A revolver Of the same caliber
as the bullets i'll the body was found in
the possession of a woman of the name
of Fordy, with whom Burlingame lived,
and she is under arrest. Three cham
bers of the revolver are empty. Five
years ago Burlingame purchased this
woman of her husband, the price being
a COW and $40. He has lived with her
since. and lately the Italian has been
visiting her, and it is said that the two
planned to get Burlingame out of the
way. An autopsy disclosed two bullets
in the brain, one thirty-tWo caliber

Hawaii has full-hedged government
in existence. and the disposition of sew
eral branches thereof, with their almost
infinite qualifications, into the life and
business of the country is problem that
requires patience and research for its
solving The revenues of the country
are derived from various sources
There are the customs dues, postal rev.
enueS. the tax on real estate and per
sonal property (the levy amounting to l
per cent on the assessed valuation, with
out distinction of class. These com
prise the principal items. How to di-
vide them between the general govern
ment and the local government is diff
ficult question. What differences were
experienced OH this point. it is believed,
have been harmoniZed, and practical
conclusion of the differences is looked
for early III the week, but the date of
the official adjournment will probably
depend upon the arrival of the other
representatives of the deposed queen.
The conditions all point to next week
as the earliest time when formal con-
clusion of the matter by the state de-
partment may be looked for. In case of
annexation being recommended by the
executive, the method Of accomplishing
it remains to be decided. The question
mas De6n discussed Dy lnOSe most lHtef-
ested, and it is understood that
only two modes of procedure
are deemed feasible. One is by
treaty, which the senate alone may
ratity; the other is by ordinary
act of congress requiring joint action of
the senate and mousse. 1t is believed
that the former method will be adopted,
if favorable action upon the proposition
of the Hawaiian commissioners be de-
termined OF. To make the treaty eff
fective, of course, the house would have
to appropriate the necessary money; so
that while the ratification of treaty OF
| annexation by the present senate is a
possibility, the execution of the terms
of the treaty will be heritage for the
next congress and administration. An
other meeting of the commissioners and
| Secretary Foster will be held at tine
| state department tomorrow.

very successful operation when L was
the secretary of the treasury to be able
to float our bonds at those figures
When the resumption act took effect the
bonds authorized by the funding act
were drawing that rate of interest, and
some of them greater. These were the
forty-year bonds at 4 per cent, the fit
teen-year bonds at AZ per cent and the
ten-year issue at per cent. 1t is well
settled that under that act the secretary
of the treasury can. if he deems it neces-
sary, issue bonds, but when the funding
act was passed no one thought that we
could issue our bonds at per cent, and
the object of this amendment is to au-
thoriZe the secretary to issue the bonds
at per cent. if he finds it necessary to
do so. 1t simply saves the government
the l per cent of interest and limits the
bonds to five years."
Mr. Sherman in general conversation
indicated that it would be exceedingly
bad policy for the United States to issue
long-term bonds at such high rates of
Interest as that provided in the resump-
ton act, namely, 4, AZ or per cent,
simply to tide over what he and every
body else felt to he only tempo
rary exigency. The bond-issuing powers
of the resumption act, he said, were de-

emergency, not mere temporary
stringency. Our present 4 per cent
bonds were carrying a premium OF IS
per cent CT over. 1t might happen, If
the government undertook to issue
more per cent bonds without the
power to redeem them at shorter
period than forty years, that COM
bination of gold holders here or
abroad or both would be entered into to
beat down the premium to say 10 per
cent, and thus the government would
be heavy loser. The only bonds the
government could issue under its pres
ent powers were 4 per cent, running
forty years; ~ per cent, running ff-
teen years, or 5 per cent. running ten
years. Mr.. Sherman declined to say
whether he thought it would become
necessary to issue any bonds. though he
did not conceal the fact that he believed
it was desirable to arm the treasury
department with the power provided by
his amendment. He repeated that there
was nothing startling i'll his proposal.
1t simply empowered the treasury to do
whatit now had the right to do, but at
a lower rate of interest and for shorter
term of years.
Mr.. Sherman'S intended act was re-
ferred to the committee on finance, of
which he is chairman, and will prob
ably be reported back to the senate at
an early day. Mr.. Sherman could not
say what action the committee would
take nor when it would report the
amendment. In view of the fact that
leading Democratic senators and Mr..
Carlisle, the incoming secretary Of the
treasury, have been In conference with
Mr. Foster, and that Mr.. Fosters views
are concurred in by Mr.. Carlisle, there
is reason to believe that the proposed
amendment will be favorably acted
upon, although the issue of the bonds,
if issued at all, will be postponed as
long as DOSSible.

While Making a Long Journey
for Pasture Money.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Feb. 12.-During the
past week the Kewa and Comanche and
the Apache Indians have been receiving
a payment of $3S,000 pasture money
from the government. The payment
has been made at AnadarkO, and a
large majority of the three tribes have
been encamped about that place all the
week. Many of them suffered greatly
during the extreme cold weather which
prevailed. An Apache boy,aged sixteen.
and his twelye-year-old sister, started to
walk fifty miles TO secure their share OF
tine money and were found frozen to
death. Gamblers and whisky peddlers
have beeu thick about the camp, and
few of the Indians retain their money
more than a few hours. One Indian
woman appeared with child carefully
wrapped up and demanded payment of
its Share. She would not uncover its
face, because she said the light would
hurt its weak eyes, but after she had
secured the money some mischievouS
clerk pulled aside the shawl and discov-
cred that the weak-visaged child was a
small dog carefully wrapped up.

THE JOHN PAUL. SINKING.
Desperate Plight of a Schooner
OFF Rhode Island.


GREEN'S HILL, r. l., Feb. 49, The
four-masted schooner John PAUL. of
Taunton, Mass, which went ashore
in the thick weather of Friday
night, lies in most precarious
position. Being early appraised of
the vessels desperate plight, the Quon-
Ocentaug lifeSavng crew made every
possible effort to reach her. and at last
succeeded in getting sufficiently near to
take off Capt. Whittier, who was landed
with much difficulty and risk. The rest
of the crew, consisting of eleven men,
it was impossible to SuccOr, owing to
thei high seas and the heavy pounding
Of the vessel upon the rocks. 1t is
feared all of them will perish. The
schooner is sinking deeper every hour,
and their fate is nearly a foregone con-
cIusion, should she settle far enough to
submerge her decks. The sea-
men who live near the coast con-
slider it extremely improbable that
she can last much longer. Capt. Whit
tier expressed the wish that he had re-
NAMED with his crew nntii the end.
He is considered a most careful navi-
gator, and the only theory assigned for
the misbap is that the strong tides and
wind. combined with thick weather,
forced him out of his reckoning.

asked by Mr.. Cleveland to enter his
cabinet, has this to say in the editorial
columns of his paper, the Journal, to-
day: "Mr. Cleveland has rendered to
Judge Walter Q. Gresham. of Indiana,
the Office of secretary of state, and
Judge Gresham has accepted it.
40 the country this appointment is a
surprise, and comments upon it are
various. We are confident, however.
that when the reasons which induced
Mr.. Cleveland to make this choice are
fully understood, they will be respected
by Democrats generally, and his action
will be approved. 1t must be remem-
bered that the Democratic party has in
the last four years made its greatest
gains in the West. Judge Gresham is
not only typical Western man, but he
is representative of the large class of
men in that section who have abandoned
the Republican party OH principle and
come over to the Democracy"
