If Mr.. Cleveland had not called
off the administration Senators a
compromise would have been reach
ed last week. How this affected the
silver Democrats may be judged by
Senator Morgan's criticism of him
in a speech. He said: II am dis
posed to say to the President:
When you leave the executive man
sion and come here to guide us in
legislation, you must not feel at all
affronted if we take up the veto
power and use it on you. You
shall not interfere with u.s." How
the two wings of the Democratic
party can be got together is not at
this time apparent.

Is the sad story OF many lives made miserable
through no fault of their own scroiula Is
more especially than any other hereditary
disease, and for this simple reason: Arising
from impure and insuih lent blood, the disease
locates itself in the lymphatics. which are
composed of white tissues; there is period OF
foetal life when the whole body consists OF
white tissues, and therefore the unborn child
is especially susceptible Ia this dreadful dis.
ease Hut there Is remedy for scrofula
whether hereditary or acquired, 1t is Hood Z

DEGRADATION OF THE SENATE

Senator Teller, Of Colorado, says
that in these days the public press
announces that the President COM
mands the Senate when he wants
any thing done. The members OF
the Cabinet were accustomed to be
frequently interviewed and to de-
clare 1--WE have made up our minds
for the repeal of the Sherman law
and we will accept no compromise. "
There were Senators who knew
when he made the statement that
the members of the Cabinet had de-
cided within a few days that no
compromise would be accepted by
the executive, that it was true be-
cause they had heard it. Teller
then continued:
"Whenever the Senate shall take
it's orders from Cabinet officers or
an executive then there will be deg
relation of then Senate; degreda-
ton that the people of the country
chall take notice of and under
stand. When we decline to be
stampeded by boards of trade,
chambers of commerce, ETC., we will
command the respect Of the Ameri-
can people. But when we surrend-
er our convictions, whether it be on
the advice of the President or on
account of public clamor, the deg
relation will begin and the useful
ness of the Senate will be at an
end"

AS the TINES stated months ago,
probably the best way to bring the
East to its senses on the silver ques-
would be to repeal the Sherman
act and to let the people there suf-
fer the consequences. With silver
below 81 there is no encouragement
for miners to expend money trying
to find it. Our mines are all shut
down. We can be hurt no more il
silver goes to % cents an ounce;
but the East can be hurt, and not
until it is will the people there ac-
knowledge what is the matter.

ROME, March 25.-The city Is In
state Of great excitement over an as
sault that was made this evening on
King Humbert. The King was return
ing from the villa Borghese, where he
had been spending a portion OF the day,
when person having the appearance
OF an Italian workingman. threw stone
at the King. the missile almost striking
him.
There was a considerable number OF
people in the streets at the time, II be-
ing about o'clock In the evening and
several persons rushed upon the assail-
ant and seized him before he had
chance TO make another attempt at vio-
lence.
The assailant was promptly taken In
hand by the police and conveyed to
prison. Otherwise he would in all pro-
bability have been killed by the angry
multitude.
An immense crowd assembled aud
cheered the King with frantic enthusi-
asm, and all the way 10 the palace the
scene was like triumphal progress.
King Humbert gracefully acknowl-
edged the ovation and was evidently
deeply moved by the evidence OF loyalty
on the part OF his subjects.
The assailant Of Humbert Is, IL APP
pears, religious fanAtic named Ber-
ardi. The authorities have made In
quiries regarding his history and have
ascertained that he was sentenced 10
Imprisonment for seven years for n
murder committed number Of years
ago.
In 1862 he was released from prison
and emigrated TO America, the authori-
ties thinking that they had got rid OF
him forever.
Berardl, however, recently returned
to Rome, but his presence die not at
tract attention until to-day. lie has
acknowledged since his arrest that his
intention was to insult King Humbert,
because the King declined to be recon
ciled to the Pope.
He also claimed that he had been en-
gagged IN forming missions for the lib-
Grafton Of slaves 10 America and China.
The police are trying 60 ascertain
whether he had any accomplices.

Nations 10 Follow.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 25.-Mr.
J. Patentre. French Minister to Wash
ington, called at the State Department
this morning and notified Secretary
Gresham that his government had
raised his mission here TO the rank OF
an Embassy. As a result Of this action
on the part of the French government
IL is believed that the rank OF Mr..
Enstis, the newly appointed Minister to
France, will be raised 20 that OF an Am
bassador.
Under the recent arrangement the
heads Of all the foreign legations were
Envoys Extraordinary and Ministers
PlenipOtentiarY, and being Of equal
rank took precedence on State occasions
In order Of their seniority.
Under this ruling Baron Fava, the
Italian Minister, has been for several
years dean OF the corps. Ambassadors,
however, outrank ministers aud envoys
and Sir Julian Pauncefote becomes dean
by virtue Of bis rank, followed by Mr..
Patentre. The recognition of Sir Jul
Ian as dear occurred at the British le-
CATION last evening, when number OF
his colleagues called TO congratulate
him upon his promotion.
One OF the members Of the corps, dis
cussing the changes, said that the sew
eral frst-claSs powers had tacitly
agreed among themselves that Great
Britain should make the first response
TO the suggestion contained In the
Diplomatic and Consular appropriation
bill that the United States would re-
ceive ambassadors TO this country. The
seven European powers, which main
tain ambassadors at each others capi-
tails will, he said, be soon represented
at Washington by diplomatic agents Of
that rank. There are, besides the two
powers which have already acted, Ger
many, Russia, Italy, Austria-Hungary
and Spain.

CHICAGO, March 25.-Ex-Congressman
Ransom w. Durham to-day hled In the
Circuit Court a bill for divorce. The bill
was sensational one. the charges being
of the gravest character and the core
spondent Of the bill being prominent
banker Of Chicago. Behind the OIL Is
an action against the BANKER, which has
not vet been filed, in which $50, 900 dam
ages will be claimed by Durham for
alienation Of the affections OF his vile.
There will be other sensational develop
ments than those Of sighting OF the
marriage relations. Property interests
involving many thousands OF dollars
will be concerned, and in this connec-
tlon Judge Morton has issued an injunc-
ton restraining the disposition OF prop
erty by. the principal defendant or any
of the one or two co-defendants. The
matter has been involved in the great
est secrecy, and the court officials Joined
with the lawyers in keeping the pro-
eeedings from the public gaze.
This afternoon attorney Frank +.
Reed entered the Circuit Clerks office
with bill on which the Clerk put the
file mark. Then the lawyer took the
brief from the files TO Judge Horton,
who after hearing what the lawyer had
to say ordered that the Injunction issue
forthwith Then the bill went out OF
sight and the lawyers with their order
for a writ Of Injunction visited the
SherIff's Office and secured aud officer
with whom they visited house in
questionable locality. What the visit
l.. ,1-r,
Dunham is in Dakota at present and
this fact was known.
Although the bill eluded the public
vision it was learned that the cO-respon-
dent was wealthy banker named
Allen, and Vice President OF one OF the
wealthiest institutions OF it's kind In
the city. Details as to his acquaint-
ance and relations with the ex-congress-
mans wife are still lacking,
but the complanant's attorneys
are frank about acknowledging
the gst OF the bill. They
say that the sole account relied on In the
application for release from the mar
riage bonds IS that of Illegal intimacy
with the banker. As the parties con-
cerned move in first-class society, there
has been every inducement to keep the
proceedings secret, and 1t was hoped
that the sensational case might be
missed among other court proceedings.
As yet the document did not bear the
stamp OF the recording clerk, and the
court requested Mr.. Reed TO file the bill
in the usual form.
In his bill Mr.. Dunham declares that
some time ago he decided to his wife
the homestead in which he now lives,
in order to secure TO her home, and
that he also assigned to her life insur-
ance policies amounting to s27, 900 on
which he is still making payments. He
declares that she is about TO dispose OF
these things and leave him without
home. He also asserts that on Decem-
ber 81 last, Mrs. Durham without any
cause whatever left her home and is
now in South Dakota where she has re-
tained counsel and has begun suit for
divorce alleging that her husband was
unkind and guilty Of cruel treatment.
which Mr.. Dunham denies.
The Dunhams have no children but
Mrs. Dunhsm has daughter eight
years old by former marriage. This
child Mr. Durham asks the court TO
award him.

CHICAGO, March 25.-The threatened
strike OF the carpenters here cast its
shadow in the courts to-day when the
Carpenters Union OF Chicago filed bill
for Injunction, 10 the Superior Court,
TO restrain the United Carpenters COun-
Gil, composed OF the United Brother
hood Of Carpenters and JOiners, the
Knights Of Labor Carpenters, and the
Amalgamated Carpenters from interfer-
ing with the members OF the complain

Join the National Carpenterk Union, but
the members say they wils be taken In
as a union but they must hisband and
come In as members OF the Organiza-
tions now composing the council. This
they resuse TO do and say ID is a scheme
Of the other carpenters Ito maintain
their control OF the cOupcil. The re-
suit is that the council now harasSes
them (they say) snd forces the memb-
ers out of employment with the object
OF breaking up their uniob. The mem
bers OF the union say that q strike Is
likely 20 be declared April 3. and they
want to be secure from tie annoyances
that will probably be CO. AseQuent upon

strikers but they want Ito retain the

CHICAGO, March 25.-Phil Mayo, Of
Cleveland. had an idea this morning
that he was going TO "do" Bob tftz-
simmons when they met tonight in the
Second regiment armory, but tonight
he knows better.
His knowledge came to him slowly.
Returning consciousness after Fitzsim-
mons had knocked him out in the sec
ond round OF what would have been a
four-round contest, had Mayo been able
to keep his jaw out Of the reach OF the
lanky Australian.
1t was the first public appearance Of
Fitzsimmons since his famous fight In
New Orleans and crowd of 5000 well
coined him with cheers when he climbed
upon the platform shortly after 10
o'clock His first contest was with
Sam Bird, of Chicago, who was easily
disposed Of, FitZsimmons merely using
him to give an exhibition of clever
ducking and sparring.
Now and then he smacked Bird just
to touch him up and before the third
round was over Bird grew dizzy and
fell against the ropes. He was caught
by Fitzsimmons, who helped him to his
corner.
After Bird had left the ring Mayo,
who had been training carefully for
two weeks, climed through the ropes.
He was in excellent condition and
looked fit for good battle,
At the call of time Mayo began with
energy, landing several good blows on
Fitz'S chest and one hot one on the
neck. His success drove the crowd
wild and ii yelled like mad as Mayo got
in ore and lodged away without re-
turn. Fitzsimmons caught him once
on the head and Mayo at once grew pru-
dent. The round ended with loud yells
for Mayo.
The second round opened with Mayo
the aggressor. He landed once and
caught hot left and hotter right be-
fore he could get away, He led for
Fitzsimmon's stomach aud landed hard.
Fitz crowded him hard, getting in sew
eral easy blows which Mayo returned
hotly.
Fitz feinted with his left and follow
ed it up like lightning with the right,
catching Mayo with frightful force on
the chin. Mayo's arms dropped and he
fell like dead man, his head striking
the boards with crash that could al
most have been heard in the street.
He lay almost without breathing un-
til the ten seconds were up, when he
was carried limp aud lifelesS TO his cor
ner. 1t being fully five minutes before
he was aware that the fight was over.
Fitz worked over him, rubbed him down
and did all in his power to bring him
around.
1t was announced at the ring side
that on April 10, Ryan and Dawson,
whose fight in New Orleans failed to
come off, will meet for six rounds. 1t
will be as much Of prize fight as the
authorities will allow.
