propose to have candidates brought out

OF passing both houses of congress before

1t depends largely on the committee on rules.
IT the committee reports rule requiring final
vote on the silver bill in a certain time and the
house decides to vote on the measure, am sat-
isfed the bill will pass the house. In the SEN
ate, however, there is q sufficient majority
against the repeal OF the Sherman law to abso-

the repeal OF the silver law at the present session
Wilson declined to discuss the cabinet
possibilities. Cleveland remained quietly
at his cottage all day. He announced this
evening that he will rema here all the

wHATCOI COUNTY FOR ALLEN.
Statements to tho Contrary Influenced
by the Bennett Interests.


WHArcoM, Feb. Especial 1.-The Posr-
INTELLIGENcER's report of the meeting Of
Representative Sherman, of Fairhaven.
and C. NJ. Atkins, of this city, at Olympus,
IN which Col Atkins is quoted as charging
Mr.. Sherman with misrepresenting the
wishes of 75 per cent. of the Republicans
of this legislative district in voting for
Judge Turner for senator in preference to
Senator Allen, has occasioned considera-
bic comment. most of it in commendation
of Mr.. Atkins re5uke to the Fairhaven
legislator. F. n. Barney. a weli-known
Republican and member of the board Of
tide land appraisers. said yesterday:
/ am inclined to think that Mr.. Atkins puts IL
little too strong, although ia my judgment a
large majority of the Republicans of hatcom
county favor senator Aliens reelection. and of
those who are not fsvoraoly disposed to him
very few, in ray opinion, want 20 see Turner
elected. am at a loss TO account in any salts
factory way for the position taken by Senator
Richards. Certainly he does not represent the
preponderance OF Republican sentiment in this
town or county, but it is possible that the re-
suit may show that hs has some good reason Tor
his course. He is personal friend OF mine AID
don't :eel like eriticising much less eensuring.
The position of Representative Sherman
is more easily accounted for. he seems
TO consider himself under greater obliga-
gion to the few Republicans of Fairhaven.
TO whom he owes his nomination. than to
the many Republicans OF the district.
which comprises both the Bay cities, to
whom he owes his election. The feeling
against Senator Allen in Fairhaven IS by
no means general, but is confined almost
entirely to the land company. They think
he is too staunch friend of Seattle. and
that his influence secured the location Of
the port of entry for Beiiingham bay az
this place instead OF Fairhaven, which
made hard fight for it. Senator Gilbert
and Representatives Roth, Sherman and
Mead can continue in their support of
Senator Allen with the full assurance that
their course will be- approved by large
majority of the Republicans of the county.

The Ghastly Joke of Drunken Medical
students at st. Joe.
ST. JOSEPH. Feb 5-EarIy this morning
Emmet and Eugene Robinson were passing
q disreputabie resort on Main street when
they discovered a human head stuck on an
iron picket in front OF the place. The
head was freshly cut off and at first it was
supposed that murder had been COM
mitted. The head was identified as that
OF John Ham, a well-known German. He
died of paralysis at the Northwestern Hos
pitai college.
During Saturday night a party of medical
students broke into the hospital, cut Off
the head, carried it to the bawdy house
and afterwards placed it on the fence.
The college is holding an investigation and
the authorities also are searching for the
perpetrators of the outrage.

The following is from the San
Francisco Chronicle Of Sunday
Some of the most stirring Incidents
of the war OF the rebellion yesterday
when the body of a gray-halred
woman was brought to the Morg e,
were recalled.
The cheap apparel and the stlii face
scanned with age and lined with
suffering, gave no hint that here was
the last of a once dashing and pic
turesque figure.
The gray women thus borne to the
Morgue without friend or relative
following or grieving was Mrs. Paul
inc Fryer better known as "Maior
Pauline Cushman, the Union Spy.
She had been seeking pension for
some time, but had latterly become
very despondent because of the Gov
ernment's delays, her poverty, and
the anguish she suffered from sciatica
and rheumatism.
The land-ladies of the house, Mrs.
Eliza Taylor and Mrs, Elizabeth
Chalmers, have no idea that Mrs.
Fryer committed suicide. Nothing
was found in her room to indicate
that she had taken her own life.
She left no scrap Of writing that gave
such an impression.
The story of Mrs. Taylor and Mrs.
Chalmers is that they discovered
Mrs. Fryer in a comatose condition
in her room about 10 O'Clock in the
morning. Drs. Moore and Harvey
were Immediately summoned and
said that she bore every evidence of
morphine poisoning. The usual
remedies were applied, and her limbs
were vigorously rubbed to restore
circulation. In spite of all efforts
the patient died shortly before :
o'clock. She never recovered cor
seriousness from the time So "..a ,-.-

The day before she died she wrote
letter to Mrs. Florence Tillman,
Florence, A, t, stating that Mrs.
Tillman would soon See her i'll Ar
iona. This letter. stamped and ad-
dressed, was found among her eff
fects. There were other letters
written and directed, which had not
been mailed. All of them were des>
pendent in tone, but spoke of future
plans III a way to forbid the idea of
suicide. Mrs. Taylor and Mrs.
Chalmers believe that if morphine
caused her death that it was taken to
relieve pain and not with suicidal in

Washington, December 3.-Sena-
tor Jones of Nevada, who has spent
the greatest part of his time since
the adjournment of the extra session
in New York, has returned to WASH
ington.
He says that his observation of f.
nancial affairs confirms him in the
opinion expressed by himself and
other silver advocates prior to the
passage of the bill repeating the
Sherman Purchasing silver Act.
There will be no material revival of
business because of that action by
Congress.
He finds some men who have been
boarding money since the panic be
gan, showing a disposition to put it
out for gilt edged securities, feeling
that 1T is better to have small in
come from the capital thar to keep it
idle; but then the disposition is
against taking risks, and, as a con-
sequence, there is little doing looking
to the extension of the industrial in
terests of the country, This he at
tributed to the small volume of cur
rency and to the fact that persons
with money will not make invest
ments when prices are falling,
Jones says he does not expect to
see any legislation which Will mat
erially benefit silver during the pres
ent Administration.
