HELENA, Mont. Jan. 4.-Democrats have
secured the organization of the house of
representatives, thus practically assuring
the election of a Democratic United States
senator. When the twenty-five Repub-
licans aud two Populists took an adjourn
ment Monday after the Democrats had
walked out of the house it was TO meet
again ut o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Monday night and yesterday morning
there were numerous conferences between
the three Populists members and the rep
resentatives Of the two other parties. The
Republicans agreed to give the Populists
all The offices in the house, any position
they might want on committees and also
the Populists would vote with them on all
election contests.
Democrats Bid Highest.
The Populists refused TO entertain any
of these propositions for the reason that
the Democrats controlled the senate, the
thing they most desired-the passage of
their bills through both branches of the
legislature-the Republicans could not
give them. The Democrats offered the
speakership to the Populists the other
offices to bs divided between the two par
ties, and to pass certain measures in which
the Populists are interested through both
houses. In return the Populists agreed to
stand by the Democrats on all political
questions and the senatorship.
Republicans Learn Their Fate.
When the house met yesterday afternoon
the assembly hall was packed to suffoca-
ton. Every Democrat but the sick men,
Der, Davidson, was present, also all the
Republicans and the Populists. Watkins,
the Populist who had been put in by the
Republican majority Monday as temporary
speaker, occupied the chair. The Repub-
iicans knew that something was going to
happen but did not know exactly what
Monteith, Republican, Immediately moved
to adjourn until 9p. m. This was done to
test the strength of the Democrats, and
also because the certificate Of Leech, the
Republican contestant from Choteau coun-
W, was supposed to be on its way here and
would arrive about p. m. The motion to
adjourn was voted down by vote of 25
for and 81 against, the Populists voting
with the Democrats.
Conclusion of the Deal.
Then the Republicans began all sorts Of
dilatory tactics, but finally motion to
proceed to the permanent organization
was carried. Democrats nominated Mat
thews for speaker and Republicans
Jockey. The vote stood 20 for Matthews
and "a for Jockey. All the Populists and
one Republican voted with the Democrats
For chief clerk, the Democratic caucus
nominee was elected. Then the house adj
journed for the day. The joint ballot will
show SO Democrats, Populists and SO Re-
publicans. This ensures a Democratic
senator and S. Il. Hauser seems to be the
coming man.

DENVER, Jan. 4.-The legislative situa-
ton is still very much mixed and the or
ganzation of the two houses as much a
matter of doubt as ever. Combinations
are made and broken as rapidly as made.
The Republicans senators have decided to
present the name of Senator Smith, the
Populists the name of B. Clark Wheeler,
the straight Democrats the name of Cas-
since Barela, and the white Wings" the
name of Senator Mckinley, for speaker
pro. tenn. of the senate. In the house
straight Democratic members adhere to
Wooten for speaker.
"What'll You Do for Us?''
The Populists appointed committee to
confer with Wooten to obtain his condi-
tons should the anticipated combine be
effected, while the Republicans, who have
one majority, will probably settle upon
Ammons, Of Douglass, although there are
other candidates.
AS neither party has clear majority in
the senate some sort of a combination must
be made and the chances favor fusion of
Democrats and Populists the former try
ing to make deal by which they can Sc
cure some of the patronage. Republicans
positively deny the report that two of
their number would act the traitor.

THE Annexation PLANS
Appear to Have Been Entirely Given
Up by the HaViiianS.
A GENUINE DYNAMITE SCARE.
An Alleged Conspiracy tn Restore tho
Queen-spreckeIs to Lose His Subsidy
-Royaiists Indignant at tho tharges of
Lawlessness.

HONOLULU, June /, via San Francisco,
June 9.-No one knows how or why, but
the fact remains that the annexation
party of Hawaii have settled in their own
minds that the United States is going TO
establish protectorate over the islands.
Annexation, except as something In the
future, is not now discussed. The cry
'annexation or nothing" Is no longer
heard. Ii is reported that Minister Blount
has dropped hint that protectorate Is
the proper thing to look for. II the con-
stant protestations of the royalists are to
be believed, they have no intention Of
making move until after the decision OF
the United States is known.
So far Claus Spreckels has not gained
much by his efforts to embarrass the gov
ernment financially Minister of Finance
Damon betrays no concern about the mat.
ter. Retaliation is now being discussed
There is talk of stopping the subsidy of
$1,000 per month paid to Spreckels' Oceanic
steamship line. There was a time when
the Oceanic line was of great value to
Hawaii, but now that the new Canadian
Pacific line. the Pacific Mail and the Occ-
dental and Oriental steamship companies
make Honolulu port OF call, the annexa-
tionists do not deem the Oceanic line es-
sentia To their prosperity.
Dynamite For Soldiers.
Honolulu had genuine dynamite scare
last night. During concert mt the Ha-
waiian hotel at which most of the people
OF the town were assembled, police officers
saw three men citing in suspicious man.
ner, near the ex- queens residence. When
ordered TO halt two OF the men drove off
In hack and the third man ran away In
the darkness. Near where the men on
foot was seen the officers discovered three
dynamite bombs and small bottle of
mercury.
Company B of the Volunteers was
called out Immediately and guarded the
palace and barracks all night 1t Is
thought by officers Of the provisional gov
ernment that the bombs were to have
been used to blow up the barracks in
which the provisional army was sleeping
President Dole stated that he thought
that the finding Of the bombs was proof
of the reported conspiracy to restore the
queen. as did Attorney General Smith.
The Royaiists Are Indignant
at the assertion. The government has
quietly been organizing three more COM
panies of volunteer soldiers.
Although no official news has yet been
made public, IL is stated that the govern.
ment has received private letters from
Washington assuring them that a pro-
tectorate will be declared by the United
States.
Ex-Queen Liliuokolani is preparing q
lengthy statement to be given to Minister
Blount. In it she recites the history of
her shortireign, the causes leading to her
downfall, and gives her views as TO the
visonal government.
