OATES TIRSTS E0LB.
The POpulist Claimant Talks Very
Aggrossiyaly
GOVERNOR OATES is DETERMINED


If Kolb Carries Out Ills T1reat to Send
Messages TO the LegisIaturc, signing Z inn
self Governor, He win Meet with Deter
m ined and Vigorous Opposition.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Dec. 4.-The guber
material feud has not altogether uuictcd.
and there are still possibilities Of trouble
ahead if the declarationso Of Governor Oates
and Captain Kolb, the claimant to the Of
flee, are carried into action.
In an authorized interview Captain Kolb
said: 81 shrl stay here with nv cabinet
and continue to be the rightful governor
of Alabama. / shall issue messages to the
legislature; shall recommend legislation
and call upon the legislature to pass CON
test law, and if they do not will convene
an extra session after they have departed.
/ am determined to obtain control of the
state government, which has been en-
trusted to my care by the voice of the peo-
pie at the polls or l will bite the dust in
the attempt.
'I have twice been elected governor, and
/ believe that the people who elected me
will insist upon it if it has to be obtained
by revolution. There were 100000 of my
friends in the city Saturday, who would
have fought at my command. 1 advised
against bloodshed because l first wish to
exhaust every peaceable means to gain the
desired end. ] withdrew from the state
house grounds Saturday because l saw
that if | had spoken and been arrested my
followers would have resisted by force of
arms, and innocent lives would have been
sacrificed in the struggle"
Speaking ofhis opponent Governor Oates
said; Gas long as he contents himself
with merely calling himself governor l
will humor him and pay no attention to
him, but if he attempts to establish dual
government, to send messages to the legis-
lature signing himself governor, and in.
terfering in public affairs will put q stou
to it. The very first step in the direction
of the organization of a force of men fo1
the avowed purpose Of resisting the exist
ing government will be crushed immed
lately, and 1 will arrest every man en-
gagged in it.
I'm my first message to the legislature
shall recommend the passage Of a contest
law, for which there is such demand by
the Kolbites, and l think it viii be passed
1t cannot in the very nature of things be
a retroactive law, however, to go back and
investigate Kolbs election, because the
session of the legislature is limited by the
constitution to fifty days, and it will have
adjourned before the investigation could
be made"
Mr.. Manning, Populist member of the
legislature, declared that the Kolbites will
exhaust all peaceful means, and then, il
necessary, resort to revolution to secure
control of the state government. More
conservative residents do not attach much
Importance to Kolbite threats.

THERE is certain TO be some opposition
in both branches Of Congress tothe items
in the Urgent Deficiency bill for the ex
penses of collecting the income tax. The
estimated cost OF the collection approaches
half a million dollars. Some m MEMBERS OF
the House COMMITTEES on Appropriations
have already declared their opposition to
the prop ,sed expenditure, but Speaker
Crisp is confdant that there will be little
trouble in carrying the appropriation
through. Stronger opposition is looked
Tor in the Senate, aud there are some who
think it will be successful. The Demo
crats in Congress cannot plead ignorance
of popular feeling regarding the income
tax. Why do they not, then, improve
this opportunity to render it of no effect 2
TO withhold an appropriation on this
account win be equivalent to repeating
the income-tax feature Of the German
Wison bill.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-Renewed interest
was attached to the reopening of the
Lexow committees session yesterday by
the fact that Father Ducey was among tho
auditors. Last month he received a letter

him not to attend any further hearings.
The principal witness of the day was
Michael Ryan, who declined to answer
questions relative to his connection with

was arrested for contempt Of court

The big historic paintings around the ro-
tunda, except two which were fixed last
year, have been gone over and shine out
once more in bright colors. The Heaton
painting OF the Recall of Columbus, which
hangs at the head of the east staircase on
the Senate side and the portraits of Lafay-
cite and Washington, and the two famous
Bierstadt paintings, which hang on either
side of the Speakers desk in the House. all
of which have grown dingy with time have
been gone over by an artist, and are in all
their glory of fresh paint. There has al
ways been some hesitancy about attempt
ing to retouch these pictures lest there
should lie some deterioration from the orig
mai work. Their restoration, however has
been eXcellentlysdone and they look as well
as when first hung upon the wall The
Recall of Columbus did not need to have
much done to IT, but the others were so
dim and dingy as to be almost without
character until restored. The Vice Presi-
dents room was thoroughly refurnished
when Mr.. Stevenson took possession of n
SO that nothing more has to be done there
this year, and the Presidents room, which
Is practically never used, remains unmo-
Tested In all Its old-time glory of red and

building the Golfer Dnm at the AQue
duct Bridge.


The Golfer dam necessary to the thor
ougn repair Of the fourth pier Of the Aque-
duct bridge is now being sunk in sections.
Three sides are down. The framework
will be completed and placed IN readiness
for the sheet piling in a few days. Eight
or nine men. an who could work conven-
iently together are employed on the con-
structioD. The favorable condition of this
weather and water is facilitating the work
and very perceptible progress is being
made.
The divers hired expressly for the pur-
pose have completed the repairs to all the
other piers and the government diver has
Inspected and passed upon what they ac-
complished. 1t has been found necessary
to construct Golfer dam around but one
pier-the cracked one-the defects in the
others having been thoroughly attended
to. The original Golfer dams. those used
In the construction of the piers, were built
by DIR. Martineau OF the firm of Stewart
& Martineau. He experienced many loss
es and discoura gements and finally had 10
be assisted by the government, through
their representative, Major Turnbull.
In the original construction, pudding
clay was thrown in between the two rows
of piles and rammed to make the dam
tight. Then steam engines were used to
pump the water and remove the mud
Seventeen feet of water was discharged
by two pumps In forty-eight hours and
thirty-two minutes. After a large por-
ton of the mud had been removed, a
break would frequently occur One dam
was filled ten times before the rock be-
meath the river was reached.
The uncertain stability OF the dams and
the constant danger of them being swept
away by the great pressure which was
against them caused the greatest anxiety
during the construction.

Independent Lodge.
At regular meeting of Independent
Lodge, No. IA. l. o. G. T., last evening, It
was decided TO pay a fraternal visit to ST.
Yer Lodge OF Tenleytown on Thursday
evening, December 6.
The good of the order was participated
in by the following members: Miss b. Nc
Elroy,' B. T. Smelling, Edward Bresnan, the
sisters Kennedy, Mr.. Guash and Mr. Nor
rison. 1t was also decided to hold Sunday
night meetings in conjunction with Heber
and Faith Tents of Rechabites, at Odd Fell
lows Hall.
Another Suggestion.
Another use for the $4,000 hole in the
ground. generally called the Lydecker tun-
mel, has been suggested by a novel-think-
Ing citizen. He says. build the proposed
contagious disease hospital on the govern
ment farm, Conduit road, equip the tunnel
with tracks and rolling stock, ventilate II
properly, and carry patients to the hos
pital through this underground roadway.
The various shaft holes could be used as
| entrances and lowering places.
