THE COMEDY ENDED.
InglOriOus Breakdown of All the Par
ties to the Kansas ImbrOg-
lilo.
POpulists Fail to Take the Hall
Republicans to Arrest the
Clerk.

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 1.-THE battle
flags are furled; the state troops have
been sent home; the armed posse of dep
uty sheriffs has been ~disbanded; the re-
publican and populists alike have laid
down their arms; the war is over.
The threatening perils of the last four
days have been averted and peace again
reigns supreme throughout Kansas. The
developments of today are regarded on
all slGes az a decisive victory for the re
publicans. Even the populists admit il
with chagrin and openly express indig-
nation at what some of them call the
weakness of their supporters. The re.
publicans have triumphed for the time
at least.
Peace was restored by the acceptance
by the governor and the republican
house of Il compromise proposition fol
the cessation of hostilitios. by the terms
Of this proposition the republican secure
u%ndisputed possession of representative
| hall in the capitol, the main point for
which they have been struggling. The
populists havethe hullowprivilegeof meet
ing unulsturbed in some other place.
The failure of the populist plan to drive
the republicans from representative hall
after they had barricaded themselves
there Wednesday morning. was due t.
refusal to obey orders of the very force
upon which T. y populists had depended
to carry their plan into execution, the
state militia. Jnsequently the populists
| were compelled to sue for peace. The
governor claims the populists have car
| ried their point which was the proven
ton Of the arrest by the republican
house Of Chief Clerk Rich of the popu-
list house, which started all the trouble
last Tuesday. The events of the last few
days and their final result will have nc
effect on the unfortunate legislative
muddlc.
There will be no ~amalgamation of the
parties. The %populists say the populisi
house will go right ahead making laws
the same as if there were no such thing
as courts. No matter what the courts
may decide the senate will continue tc
recognize the house and the governor
will sign bills passed by it. Should bills
be declared invalid by reason of having
been passed by an illegal house, then
say the populists, the blame will resi-
upon the court. In case such a thing
comes to pass the state institutions, col
lcges, asylums, schools, etc, would doubt
less have to close. Tonight the city il
very quiet. The republican members
have gone home. the populists have have
left town, and the deputy sheritfs have
gone home for much-needed rest.

The House Drops its Animosities Long
Enough to Pass the Pension Bill.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The sundry
civil appropriation bill occupied the ex-
elusive attention of the senate today.
The amendment which had been dis
cussed on Wednesday, the effect of which
is to continue in force the law for feder-
al supervision Of elections, was carried
by a party vote. All committee amend
ments being disposed of and the bill be-
ing open to general amendment, the
question to the issue Of 3 per cent
bonds to maintain the gold reserve was
precipitated on the senate. An amend
ment was offered by Sherman and a
point Of order was raised against it by
Stewart. The point was, after discus
sion, overruled by the vice president, and
and an appeal from that decision was
laid IN the table by a vote of % yeas to
IL nays. The merits of the amendment
were discussed for the rest of the day,
and adjournment came before the debate
closed.
There was no personal conflict on the
floor of the house today, although there
was a strong underCurrent of bad feel
ing. In four or five instances a passion
ate word would have worked trouble,
but reason took the place of passion and
the pension appropriation bill was pass
ed. The postoifice appropriation bill
was considered without final action. The
car coupler bill was postponed until

ALL OR NOTHING.
That is the Reply Jim COrbett Sent in
Answer to Mitchell's "Di-
vision Racket.
'ChOlly" Wants 80 Per Cent of the
Purse to Go to the Winner
and 20 to the Loser.

New YORK, Feb. 17.-Charley Mitch
ell, the English pugilist, met w. A.
Brady and Billy Delaney, Corbett's rep
resentative, at the World Office at 4
o'clock this afternoon. Ten thousand
dollars was deposited by each side and
the match is now fixed so that neither
side can back out. 1t was mutually
agreed that the battle will come off the
second week in December. Phil Dryer
was agreed upon as final stakeholder.
Mitchell wanted to fight in a twelve.
foot ring, but Brady made the point that
it was impossible to fight in a twelve
foot ring under the Queensbury rules, sc
it was made a twenty .four-foot ring. II
was also agreed that the referee should
be the referee of the club where the fight
takes place, the fight should be to a
finish, and that the referee should have
no power to call the contest off. Then
came the finale, which threatens to dis
rupt the whole proceedings.
ut is agreed. of course, that the win
ner shall take all the purse" said Brady
confidently. sob, no. said Mitchell, 81
think there should be a division" Brady
said he wanted it to be all or nothing.
He was willing to permit "A $1,000 of il
to go to the loser for training expenses
Mitchell, however, demanded that the
purse be divided SO and 20 per cent
Brady would not agree to this and as an
argument said that the purse might be
$4,000, in which case Mitchell would re
ceive $1,000 for fighting Corbett, which
was really $1,000 more than he vas bet
ting on the outside. Brady, finally, on
his own responsibility, agreed TO let the
loser have $1,000 instead Of 81 900
Mitchell, however, would listen to ne
other agreement than he has stated az
to the division of the purse. The meet.
ing was adjourned until I tomorrow
afternoon in order to give Brady an op.
~portunity TO telegraph to Corbett to find
out what further concessions he was
willing to make. Corhett's reply came
about 10 o'clock tonight. He wireo
Brady from st. Paul as follows: "If
can't whip that wind-bag | don't want 4
cent. Winner must take all.
