THE Journal announced yesterday
that Finance Commissioner Alval
Bedell is a candidate for Sheriff.
This is important, if true. Mr.. Bedell
is a good man and would make a
good Sheriff. But the public will
want to know. from the very start,
who is behind his candidacy. Be-
sides, the lawyers and business men
who have dealings with the Sheriff's
Office will want to know why Mr..
Stanton, who has given the best SER
vice the county has ever had in that
Office, should be turned down.

THE PANAMA INVESTIGATION.
The Committee of the National House at
Work in New York.

The Committee of the National House at
Work in New York.
NEW YORK, Feb. 13-The Panama in
vestigation committee of the national
house met here today and examined Boy
ard. who at various times occupied posi-
tions as general agent, secretary and pur-
chasing agent OF the Panama company.
He declared that he never made any dis
bursement5 except those he was officially
to appear with all books andspapers Sec
rotary Colne of the American committee
testified that he turned over his books to
General Bristow six months ago.
Nathan Appleton OF Boston was the
first witness called after recess. In 1879
he received a letter from DeLesseps ask
ing him to accept the position of general
agent of the canal company in this coun-
try His idea was that the shares of the
company should be placed on sale by the
national banks of this country. The esti-
mated cost of the canal was S240, 000, 600.
In 1880 subscription for $50, 600, 900 of
stocks were opened in this country and
was great success, as the amount was
covered three times over. At that time
he had not heard of the American COM
mittee. He had drawn a salary of $4,000
year as general agent of the company ever
since, through the banking house OF J &
w. Seligman To earn this salary he did
all he could to promote the interests of the
project by writing articles for the papers,
having himself interview ed, etc. He did
not know what inducements were offered
Thompson to give up the secretaryship of
the navy and accept the presidency OF the
American company.

WASHINGTON, Feb. ia bill intended
to secure construction OF the Nicaragua
ship canal occupied the attention OF the
Senate today. 1t provides that the per

not exceeding 500, 900 be guaranteed,

of the United States, said bonds to be is
sued according as the money is actually
paid out and expended by the company in
construction OF the canal The govern
ment is then to own the capital stock of
the company with the exception
of S12, 600, COO of it, which is to
be retained by the company and
accepted as shares, to be delivered
to the governments of Nicaragua and
Costa Rica. The Importance of this guar
antee by the government was demon
strated in speech by Mr.. Frye, VINO
undertook to show that the canal would
be finally completed, within the guaran-
tee, at a cost OF 800, 900, 900 and that the
fixed charges would be only s., OO0,000
per year outside of the sinking fund,
whereas, without a guarantee the cost
would be not less than $500, 900 900 and
the fixed charges S14 900, 600 year.
Mr.. Morgan discussed the diplomatic
features of the measure.
He expressed the opinion that there was
not now, and never was, anything in the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty to prevent the
building of the canal. The bill went over
until tomorrow.
Cullom introduced joint resolution

RICO MINING TROUBLES.

Views on the Matter.

Superintendent Kislingbury Gives His
Views on the Matter
DURANGO, Colo, Feb. ID. - George
Kislingbury, superintendent of several
Rico mines. told your correspondent to-
day that the only direct result of the re-
cent miners strike at that point would be
the dissolution of the union. He con-
tends that an obligation was sworn to
by each man not to work for less than
s.. so per day, and as they all want to re-
turn to work at s. the charter will
be surrendered. He further states
that from the manager of the
Smuggler- Union at Telluride he learned
that similar reduction would be put
into effect very soon. He assigns the
cause for reduction OF wages thus: 1.-THE
decline in silver has made it possible for
mines like the Sheridan, which produced
over 81 200, 900 in gold and silver last
year, working under the $3.50 rate, to
lose money. This is actually the case.
That company lost several thousand dol
lars after working all year. Mining COM
panies have decided to no longer work
mines and exhaust large bodies of ore
simply to give employment to miners and
make nothing themselves. -

WYOMING'S DIFFICULTY.
The Senatorial Situation Seems More
Complicated Than Ever.
In Montana the Senatorial Fight is Be-
coming Very Grave Matter and
BIoodshed Is Feared When the
Next Ballet Is Had.

BOISE, Ida, Feb. 13.-[Special.l THE
matter of sending delegates to the BIZ
metallic league at Washington, D. c.,
, came up in the senate this morning. The
lbill passed by the house on Saturday
night was referred and gotten out of way
by vote in which the Democrats and
Populists voted in the affirmative The
senate portion of the conference commit
Zee which had the matter in charge pre-
scented a report signed by one Democrat
and one Populist and accompanied by a
bin providing for the appointment by the
governor of nine delegates, naming six of
them as follows: j. NJ. Burke, OF Occur
D'Alene City; g. V. Bryan, of Haley;
A. j. McNab, of Salmon City; all Demo
Gratis; and A. j. Crook, of Challis;
George P. Hill, of Bellevue; G. A. Viii
liams, of Haley, all Populists; leaving
the governor TO use his discretion regard
ing the balance. The matter was con-
kidered by the Republicans as a direct
insult to Governor Mcconnell, and bit
ter partisan fight is expected. The Senate
will pass the measure over the Repub-
licans, and the House viii kill it. The
Senate VIII in return kill the House reso-
luton providing for the appointment by
the governor of ten delegates, and it is
likely that Idaho viii not be represented
at all.
In the Senate, Campbell's bill fixing
the yearly liquor license at $500 was dis
posed OF. The House spent the time in
consideration of Mills irrigation bill in
committee of the whole. An amendment
was adopted fixing the yearly rate of

be increased by ditch owners If they do
not make 10 per cent. profit on the in
Cvestment at that rate till such per cent. is
realized.

New YORK, Feb. 13.-Banker Jesse
Seligman had conference with Secretary
of the Treasury Foster early this morn
ing. Later Foster left the hotel, but up
to 1:3O p. m had not appeared at the

clded by the secretary to issue bonds
probably to the amount OF $4,000, 900,

STATEHOOD BILL.
The Senate Refuses to Allow the State
hood Bill to Be Called Up.

hood Bill to Be Called Up.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-There was
backset to the bill to admit the four ter
ritories to statehood this morning, but Mr..
Carey, who has the matter in charge, says
it is but temporary defeat. Today dur
ing the morning hour, Nh. Carey called up
the bill for the purpose of getting it be-
fore the Senate and ordering it printed.
Mr.. Plat, chairman of the Committee on
Territories, who is opposed to the admis-
sion at any states at present, objected and
Mr.. Carey forced the issue by moving
that the bill be taken up. On a yea and
nay vote his motion was defeated by 80
nays to IA yeas.
There appears to have been fear on the
part of some senators that Mr.. Carey
sought to displace the Nicaragua bill, and
this is4tO some extent accountable for the
vote. Some senators, particularly among
the Democrats, will vote for the bill when
the canal matter is out of the way. Mr..
Carey says the opposition to the admi5-
sion OF the territories had .heir votes pres
ent and friends of the bill did not. On a
square vote, without anything to inter-
fere, he is confident the territories will be
admitted
There will be no further attempt made
to get the bill up in the morning hour,
but Mr.. Carey will wait until the Nicara-
qua bill is finished, and then under an
agreement of the caucus he will call it up,
and expects to have q majority on his side.

He is Charged With the Murder of T. G.
O'Conner.
PIrTsBURe, Feb. BY far the most
important of the Homestead riot trials IS
that of Hugh O'Donnell, chairman of the
advisory board, and practically the whole
advisory board, as the others submitted
implicitly to his dictation. and all strikers
looked to him as the unquestioned leader,
during the stirring times Immediately
following the strike. For some cause not
fully disclosed, he fell from favor after a
time and resigned from the advisory board;
was arrested soon afterward and has been
in jail ever since, bail being refused. He
looked pale and haggard in the prisoners
bar this morning, the result of long con-
fnement. The Indictment charges him
with the murder OF 7. G. O'Conners. He
pleaded not guilty to the charge. The
work of selecting jury was tedious, and
occupied the greater part of the morning.
The afternoon was occupied with the
presentation of the case by the prosecu-
ton and the hearing of the evidence OF
several witnesses who went over familiar
ground.

OGDEN, Feb. 13.-[Special. lat its
meeting tonight the board of education
refused to accept the assignment of Carr

date the bonds. The contractors were
notified to push the building or the board
would complete it at the cost of the
bondsmen.
The city council tonight appropriated
81 500 to defray the expenses of the cattle

HELENA, Mont, Feb. 13.-The grand
jury today returned indictments against
Fl. E. Yaeger, formerly public admins
traitor of this county. The indictments
are based on his management of estates
that came into his control and in which
his shortage is about 5000. Yeager was
for many years in the United States army
as band master. He is a prominent
grand Army man, and at the present
time is grand recorder of the grand lodge,

able uneasiness is at present being exper-
fenced by the bondsanen of NJ. F. Egan,
ex-treasurer of Lake county, owing to a
