The three Populist Senators, Allen,

Henderson (Rep.) of Nebraska then
moved to refer the bill to the Committee
on Fipence with instructions to amend
it so as.to provide that the silver certi6-
Gates shabby increased Only 10 antlcipa
ton or In lieu of the seigniorage. He said
that the bill had been characterized
even by it's friends as crude, rough and
IN grammatical, and that the debate had
shown that those who understood the
English language were at sea as to what
the bill meant. Manderson's motion
was rejected, yeas q, nays A.
Then it was proposed by Harris TO
abrogate the agreement that the re-
mainder of the discussion be under the
FIVE minute rule. BE proposed that the
debate be general, vote to be taken at
3 O'Clock tomorrow on the passage OF
the bill. Unanimous consent was given

George was followed by Carey (Rep J

bill and then at 5.25, after short exc.

Fear Not the Gu,lIot,ue.

PARIS, March 15.-At 230 O'Clock this
afternoon a bomb exploded just Inside
the main door OF the church of the
Madeleine. One person, supposed to
be the author of the explosion, was
killed and several others were wound
ed. The explosion which was evident
ly premature, mutilated in horrible
raanner the man who was carrying the
bomb. II is generally believed thai it
was the intention OF the miscreant to
throw the bomD into the midst Of the
Worshippers. who were gathering for
the AFTERNOON service. Four persons
have been taken into custody on suspi-
cion of being accessories OF the man
who was killed. The police had the
greatest difficulty in getting their
prisoners to the station, the mob which
had gathered making several attempts
to seize the prisoners and lynch them.
The Madelelpe, or church of st. Mary
Magdalene, one of the oldest places of
worship in Paris, has a large congrega-
tion and is especially We'll attended
during the devotions of the lent sea-
son. The afternoon or Vesper services
were about to begin and worshippers
were rapidly filing the edihce when
the explosion occurred.

The Murderers Seen.

COLUMBIA, S. c., March l2.-The
thread of circumstances woven around
Andrews, Weeks and McCloud as the
mucderers of Mr. Gayden grow thicker.
Two gentlemen who arrived from Eas-
tower this afternoon report that the
three men were seen at the mouth OF
the Wateree river this morning paddle
ing down it il a boat. They were pull
ling for all they we're worth. & gov
eminent snag boat is at the mouth of
the river, and the people employed on
it had not yet heard of the murder.
They met one of a party searching for
the murderers, who asked hadthey seen
three nen passing that way. The re-
ply was that three men had been seen
in a boat, and the description of them
tailed exactly with that Of Andrews
Weeks and McCloud. AS SO N as pos.
slhle word was sent to EastoVer, and
the searching parties mapped QUO a
line of procedure. Mr.. Frank Weston,
Mr.. Cr0usee and three or four others
Immediately went to Sumter, where
they were to take the Charleston,
Sumter and Northern for Tance'S near
the Santee bridge, for the purpose Of
overtaklng them. Another party com.
posed of twelve or fifteen men went on
horseback on either side Of tie river,
and we're to ride down and make Il
thorough search all along the banks
and surrounding country.
That these three suspected men
should thus be seen together seems to
be almost positive proof that they are
the nart1es wanted. The chances for
their capture appeared good, rs it is
hardly possible that they can escape
the posse on both sides of the river
and that at the bridge. = nleSs some
thing unforeseen happens, John Gay
den's muroecers will be captured today
or this week, at the outside. When
they are, it is question whether they
will be brought back to WeGgetield. 1t
is believed that whatever caught they
will be hung or shot on the spot. The
character Of the crowd precludes any
such action. They vii! weigh the teS-
stimony and act accordingly.

depcsed members aoplied to the dis

depcsed members applied to the dis
trict court and obtained a temporary
injunction to restrain the Governor,
the mayor and the new members from
taking possession of the Office of the
police and fire board by fcrce. This
was objected to, but after arguments
had been heard, Juge Graham declined
to remove the Injunction. Then, after
several days delioeratioD, the Govern
OF decided to ignore theinjunction, and
so issued last night, his order to the
militia.
During the excitement around the
city hall, a man named Hyles. fell from
bis perch on ssorm door entrance to
The hall striking head first upon the
pavement, fracturing his skull. He
will die.
1t is said that a warrant for the ar
rest of Governor Waite has been sworn
out and will be served by posse of
deputy sheriffs tonight.
Denver, March 15.-8:45 p. m.-The
United States troops have arrived from
Fort Logan aud are under command of
Gtn. McCook. Gen. Brooks, of the
State troops, says the old fire and DO.
lice board will be given In opportunity
to fight or quit.
THIS IS SERIOUS.
Late tonight Governor Waite issued
an order calling out every company of
militia in the State. They are to come
to Denver Immediately, ready to act.
The Colorado National Guard consists
Of two regiments, one with headquar-
ters here and the other in Pueblo. The
entire force can muster probably. 1900
men. The Governor says the compa-
mes here are not sufficient to cope with
the crowds and police force. They can
not reach Denver before Saturday. The
sheriff will attempt to cause the ar
rest of the Governor. Ant. Gen. Tars
ney and Brig. Gen. Brooks early to.
morrow morning. Tue United States
troops will remain in the city until
peace is assured, and the prominent
men will continue to urge peaceabie
means Uf settlement. As Governor
Waite seems inseDsible to arguments
looking to arbitration, peace can come
only by the withdrawal of the city hall
people, or by some action of the courts
that will restrain the Governor The
situation now looks serious for to-
morrow.

ATLANTA, March 9.-Ssmuel Cheek,
a contractor, well known In the city and
surrounding country died at the Grady
hospital from the effects of two bullet
wounds in the left breast; and those
wounds were inflicted by his own hand.
For humber of years Cheek has
maintained relations of the most ami
cable nature with his wife and children
not jar of discord ever marring the
domestic felicity of wife and husband
each appearing to have perfect conf
dence in the other, while the sequel
shows that, during ali these years, In
another part of the city, there has lived
another woman known as Mrs. Sam
Cheek. And this woman has borne him
two children.
How much longer this dual existence
of Sam Cheek would have gone on can
only be conjectured, but for the fact
that Cheek became involved in htiea-
ton which resulted In warrant being
issued for his arrest; his having I'd hide
out from the officers, and finally in fit
of desperation, admitting all to his wife

Cross, but whose real name was Blanch
Clayton left her new home and after
visiting the Cheek family, where she
spent a few days, left them, declaring

Cheek. He had become infatuated
with the girl; brought her to Atlanta
and SET Ip a second nome. And, not

has managed to keep up his relations
with this woman without eyer exciting
breath of suspicion, either in the
breast of his wife, ar among those with
whom be came In business contact.
