Senator Hill Scores His Opponents and
Upholds Cleveland.
WASHINGTON, July 26.-Another dra-
matte scene occurred in the senate dur
Ing the day, but President Cleveland,
instead Of being the object of attack by
the leader of his party, was defended
with vigor and vim. His champion was
his old political rival and enemy, Sena.
tor David Bennett Hill Of New York.
The New York senator spoke for almost
two hours to breathless galleries and a
full senate. Several times the presid-
ing officer was unable to restrain the en-.
thusiasm his remarks evoked, notably
when Mr.. Hill declared that personal
considerations would not prevent him
from defending the president when he
was unjustly attacked. He defended
MI. Cleveland's letter, his right to send
it and the sentiments it contained, and
saries when he pointed out that they
criticised the president for siding with
the house when they admitted that
they had
Used All Their Influence
to induce him to interpose in behalf Of
the senate amendments to the tariff bill.
He took up Mr.. Germans argument and
met it point by point in a manner salts.
factory to himself, at least, and con-
Guided with a satire that stung those on
the floor and tickled the galleries un-
measurably. Mr.. German on Monday
compared Mr. Hill to Iago. Mr.. Hill
likened those who had joined in the
assault on Mr.. Cleveland to the con-
spirators who stabbed Caesar to death at
the foot Of Pompeii's statue in the
Roman senate. Mr. German he charao.
terized as the lean and hungry Cassius:
Mr.. Jones, Marcus Brutus, the honest
Brutus of the senate; Mr. Vest, who
struck the first blow on Friday. as
Casca; Mr.. Voorhees, as Trebonius.
'testy but earnest and Mr.. Harris as
Metallus Climber. They had
Struck Down the President,
Mr.. Hill said, not that they loved Mr..
Cleveland less but that they loved the
senate compromise more, land yet," he
concluded, and each word rung out like
a hammer on an anvil, II can say with
Anthony. They are all honorable
men,"
Mr.. Caffery Of Louisiana, who fol-
lowed Mr.. Hill with a brief speech. also
gave to the country his share of the Sc
crets of the political prison house. He
detailed at length the manner in which
the sugar schedule had been prepared,
insisting that it was made by and in the
interests of the sugar trust. He then
gave way in order to give the Demo-
Gratis a chance to caucus. Altogether it
was a very exciting day, and the indi.
cations are that others as interesting
will follow.

THE END OF ALL.
Prot. Wheaton Succumbs To Hi
Injuries, And Passes Away
At Minneapolis.

A telegram from Minneapolis received
Monday afternoon by Joseph Hare, an
nounces the death of Prof. Paul j.
Wheaton. at Asbury hospital, from the
illness resulting from his attempt at
suicide, on the 9th inst. The funeral
will occur at Minneapolis tomorrow
| afternoon.
There is an element of sadness in the
news of Prof. Wheaton's death, which
cannot but be appreciated by everyone.
Educated, intelligent, refined, of a highly
nervous temperament and an earnest
school worker, he has succumbed to q
temporary mental affection, which led to
a fatal effort at self destruction. For
two years he was principal Of the public
schools, and in that time, he wrought
earnestly and we'll for the advancement
of the pupils under his charge. An ex-
%cellent disciplinarian, the results of his
modes OF teaching we're at once, and are
now, evident. A capable instructor, he
achieved radical improvements in school
methods. A genial, witty and virile
companion, he was generally popular
with his students. He was odd, at times,
from an excess of nervousness, and an
over-wrought mental organization. Two
classes were graduated under his super
vision, and it is safe to say few instruc-
tors were better liked. His sudden, un-
timely and shocking death will be q
source Of profound sorrow.
Death wipes away all criticisms and
all disposition to criticise. It the dead
has erred, then let it be forgotten. Ii
he has sinned, then let it be forgiven.
Mistakes of judgment may be we'll at
tributed to that high-strung mentality,
whose very height and finish has brought
about it's downfall. The death Of one SO
gifted, under such s%addening circum-
stances, is a source Of grievous sorrow.
May that rest of mind and repose Of
body which were denied him in his last
illness, be granted him IN death, with q
measure of such forgiveness as should
be granted by all who crave forgiveness.
Mrs. Charles Robbins, wife Of the pro.
prietor Of the Commercial hotel at Minot,
and 9 we'll known and estimable lady, 81
years Of age, committed suicide by shoot
ing Friday morning. She is supposed
to have been temporarily insane owing
to the loss Of q young daughter recently.
. She leaves 9 daughter years old.

the stain which rested upon it, and
prove to the community, and the world,
her innocence. He was prepared to
prove, he said, that Nellie Brady had
left town Sunday night, on a freight
train for Mandan. That she took the
train from there yesterday morning for
Montana. with papers which had been
taken from the trunk Of his client.
These, and other facts, he alleged and
offered to prove, and he asked for an in.
vestigation.
Attorney Register, for the prosecu-
ton, said he had not been consulted as
to the arrest; that if he had, it would
probably not have been made; that, so
far as he knew, there was no evidence
for the prosecution, and the arrest was
a mistake. But the affair, he said,
looked to him like a family trouble over
some property, and he did not believe a
criminal case was the place to bring out
facts which should appear only in a
civil suit. He was willing to have the
defendant make her statement in open.
court, and then have the case dismissed.
After some further discussion this
wa agreed upon, and the defendant was
sworn, and made her statement. She
stated that she. was the widow OF John
L.. Brady; she came here with the body
of her husband; since her arrival, she
bad lived with Mrs. johanna Brady; at
the tune of her arrival, she had certain
papers, relative to land owned by her
husband; that one of these was a
filing paper on land in the name
Of Thomas Brady, and the other in the
name of Nellie Brady; that her husband
had told her prior to his death, that he
had paid these persons for their connec-
ton with the filings and that the land
would belong to her after his death; that
after her arrival here, Nellie Brady asked
defendant to give her a power of attor-
ney to settle up the estate; that she Ghe
~defendant) had been advised not to do
this, and refused; that some days ago,
she had been invited to take a drive to
the capitol by Miss Mary Brady and
Mrs. Johanna Brady, and that she re-
manned there about three hours, and
when she returned, the lock on her trunk
had been broken, and certain of the
papers taken; that she had been advised
by Mr.. Mcdonald to 60 at once to Mon
tana, and attend to her own property;
that Mr.. Mcdonald and his wife had
always been kind to her; that she in
tended to leave Sunday for Montana,
and that her ticket was to be given her
by a kind hearted gentleman, she to pay
for it when she could get money, of
which she had but a little; that Sunday
morning, she prepared to go, and in
formed Mrs. Johanna Brady of her in
tentions; that Mrs. Brady said she could
not go, and refused to allow her to take
her trunk and ~valise; that she then went
down to the hotel, and the warrant of
arrest was served shortly after.
This was the substance of the state
ment made by the defendant.
MI. Register moved to dismiss the
case, and Justice Tibbils SO ordered.

Last of Jefrfes.

General Jeffries, and his army of
wealers who made a considerable excite.
ment here some weeks ago, seems to
have gotten a good distance on his trip.
A telegram from Bay City, Mich, says:
The schooner Grampian left Friday with
Jeffries' commonweal army, $50 strong,
on board. The comnonwealers had been
camping in the valley here for some
time and were anxious to travel some
portion of their journey by water. The
people of the town, who were anxious to
get rid of the crowd, subscribed the
necessary money and chartered the
Grampian for $4O0. The schooner is
towed by the steamer Monohansett and
will 60 to some Lake Erie port.
