before Justice Willard Bartlett. The
jury was secured late yesterday, and by
order of the court were locked up in

tican quite of the McKane stripe, but of
special officers detailed by the court
itself. The position in which the Nc
Kane jury is fixed in being placed in
practical confinement by order of Jus

the trial is novel one in the United

And the Peace Making Between Bismarck
and William AN Eventful Thing.
BERLIN, Jan. 26-January &c, 1894,
will go down in history as the day
marking great event in Germany, the
final act in the reconciliation between
Emperor William II and Prince Bis
marck, to whom is duo the fact that
there is among sovereigns such a per-
sonage as German emperor.
Tho streets of Berlin were early alive
with thousands of persons who were de-
sirous OF witnessing the trium plant
procession accompanying the prince
from the railway station to tho castle
of his imperial host. When Bismarck
started from FREDERICKSBURG all tho
people OF the neighborhood were out 10
bid him godspeed.
When the train reached Spadau, one
Of Berlin's suburbs, the saloon carriage
and the luggage van wore dropped by
the Hamburg express and another on
CINE was hitched to Thorn to take them
to the Lehrte station. This engine was
beautifully decorated with garlands OF
flowers.
The train arrived at the station at OK
actly the time appointed. Prince Henry
of Prussia, the emperor's brother, gov
ernor of Berlin and large suite of OIL
GERS were awaiting tho coming of the
prince. When the train stopped Prince
Horny stepped cut from the groups sur
rounding him and walked to the carriage
occupied by the ex.chancellor.
Prince Bismarck came out upon tho
platform and Prince Henry erasped him
by the hand and shook it warmly. When
the party entered the palace, Emperor
William, who was standing at the boz.
tom of the steps leading to the petits
apartment, so called, wore as special
mark Of honor the uniform Of the Bis
marck cuirassiers. His majesty to-day
nominated the prince chief Of tho famous
regiment Of cuirassiers.
His reception of tho old statesman
was Of the warn est and most cordial
nature. AS Prince Bismarck approached
him he extended his hand, and tho
prince, bowling, kissed it. The emperor
Immediately lifted both his arms and
embraced the prince heartily. He then
pressed = kiss on the old mans cheek,
and the reconciliation between himself
and the greatest Of his subjects was
sealed

Elections Debated.

Several Petitions Introduced and Federal
Elections Debated.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 26.-The usual
number of meme rails and petitions were
presented at the opening of the session
of the Senate to-day. Most Of them
were against the passage of the Wilson
tariff bill. Ole of these was from 80
citizens of Streauor, Ill saying:
eve cannot feed, clothe and educate
our families and compete against the
poorer paid labor of Europe. We are
proud and do not want 10 be Inundated
by asking for charity. How would any
of you like to go to soup house and sit
down to free soup? We have pride as
we'll as you. We ask you to defeat the
Wilson bill and we will take care of
ourselves"
All relating to that subject went to
the finance committee. Resolutions
heretofore offered by Call as to the pro-
lection of the rights of homestead set-
tiers on railroad lands in Florida were
taken up and Call addressed the Senate
At the conclusion Of Calls remarks
there was long discussion as to what
disposition should be made of the reso-
lution-the question being whether they
should go to the judiciary committee or
to the committee on public lands
Finally the resolutions were referred to
the judiciary committee.
On motion of Harris it was ordered
that when the Senate adjourn to-day it
adjourn till next Monday. The Hawaiian
resolution was laid before the Senate
and vas, on motion OF Turpie, postponed
until the morning hour of next Monday
The House bill to repeal tho Federal
election laws was then taken up and
Chandler renewed his suggestion to let
the bill GO over till next December. He
put his suggestion into formal motion
and demanded the yeas and nays upon
it. The motion was defeated by strict
party vote-yes, 90; nays, 5S-Allen
Pop, Neb.) voting with the Democrats
in the negative.

RICHARD CKoKER's OPPOSITION.
1t Is Said He Will Direct the Fight "A eainst
the Income Tax

WASHINGTON, Jan. &c. = Richard
Croker, the Tammany leader, OF New
York, is in tho city, and was at the
Capitol to-day in conference with
Speaker Crisp. 1t is said he comes to
direct the Now York man bers in their
fight against the adoption of an income
tax and that he will stay until the
question is settled.
The announcement of his arrival was
received with much interest on the floor
of the House, and many of the mem bers
desired to SEQ the great New York CEN
trail figure of political power, but he kept
himself hidden within committee rooms
and was seen by comparatively few.
The appearance of Mr.. Croke r empha.
sizes what has been frequently dis.
cussed by members of the majority of
the House, the probability of another
bitter factional controversy.

HORRIBLE SCENE ar A HANGING.
The Rope Breaks and tho Victim Fall
Eight Feet to the Pavement.


Eight Feet to the Pavement.
CHICAGO, Jan. 26.-The execution in
the county jail this morning of Geo. II.
Painter, formerly of Brooklyn, for the
the murder of his mistress, Alice Martin,
was attended by a horrible scene. When
the trap was sprung the rope snapped
in two and the unfortunate man, who
weighed over goo pounds, dropped eight
feet ON the stone floor of The corridor.
His head struck heavily as ne fell,
and the blood gushed from his ears and
nostrils. He was pickle d up unconscious,
laid on the drop in a recumbent post
ton and another moose adjusted. Tho
drop fell second time without further
accident. One of the attendant phys
icians expressed the opinion that he
was already dead when the drop was
sprung second time. Only seventy
five spectators, half of ~hom were
representatives of the press, were ad-
mitted to the death corridor.
Painter was fine looking man and q
murmur of sympathy went up from the
crowd as he came into view. His nerve
was wonderful, his glance taking in the
scaffold, the moose and the spec ta tors
without the tremor OF a muscle. He
met his death bravely but almost broke
down as, III his short speech, he pro
tested his innocence.
