Some Sockdolager Figures.

Dollars to doughnuts that if a United
States senator was 10 be chosen by the peo-
pie at the polls, Nelson wouldn't come with
in forty rows of apple trees of being elected.
-Anoka Union.
Way off, Brother Pease. We have
few doughnutS and not so many dollars,
but we will wager the whole pile that
Nelson can poll 10000 more votes for
any Office in the state, United States
senator included, than any man you can
name. 1t seems 10 us that the result of
the elections year ago should have con-
vinced the most skeptical that Gov. Nell
son is vote getter.-Preston Times.
Is that so. Brother Langum? Well,
Nelson had los, ,220 votes; Harrison 1872
S23, which is running behind over i3.-
600. There was n candidate on the
state ticket who received larger vote
than Nelson. Bobleter for treasurer,
109,415. There are several men in the
state who can give Nelson cards and
spades as vote-getters. A. +. McCSIll is

A LIVELY ROW
Between Two Well-known Char.
acters,

acCerS.
NEW YORK, Jan. About 7:o0
o'clock last evening Jere Dunn and two
of his friends strolled into the cafe of
the st. James hotel. They walked up
to the bar and ordered drinks. just as
they did so James F. Caldwell, the we'll
known starter at the race tracks, hap
pened along. He also walked up to the
bar and asked the drink mixer TO make
him a cocktail. He had scarcely done
so when, on turning, he discovered that
he stood right beside his inveterate
enemy. AS he caught sight of
Dunn Caldwell Kissed "Murderer!''
into his ear. Dunn drew back, looked
at Caldwell with a glance of scorn,
and then fired at him q volley of oaths.
Caldwell replied in kind. Dunn's fist
flew out and landed vicious right
handler on CaldweIl's nose. Caldwell
made lunge at Dunn with his left, but
was seized by the arms and held by
bystanders. Meanwhile other specta-
tors caught hold of Dunn and dragged
him out into the corridor, despite the
most desperate efforts OH his part to get
away and back again at Caldwell. While
CaluWellS IrleHuS were Wiping the
blood from his nose Dunn was taken
by his companions over to the Hoffman
house. There they sat down to table
and talked the incident over. An hour
later Caldwell succeeded III getting into
the Hoffman, with the evident inten-
ton Of shooting Dunn at sight. The
latter, however, was ready for him, but
again friends interfered and bloodshed
was avoided. Caldwell was ejeeted,
and left swearing he would kill Dunn
OH sight.

DENIED IN WASHINGTON.
Officials Say They Know Nothing
of the Above.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The report
current in Montevideo that President
PeiXote was negotiating with United
States Minister Thompson looking to
the intervention of the United States
fleet at Rio in accomplishing a settle
ment of Brazilian difficultion was de-
MED by officials of the state and navy
departments to-day. The dispatch from
Montevideo was shown to Secretary
Herbert, and he said that if any such
Intervention was contemplated he is
not informed of 1t. In the state
department it was also asserted
that no information of such
negotiation has been received from
Minister Thompson, and that no instruc-
tiOnS had been sent him to take such
action. Confederation was secured for
German authorities had together taken
action to prevent the rebel forces from
again attacking the city of Rio or dOIng
damage to 1t. As to the reported move
mentS of PeiXotO's naval forces towards
Pernambuco, the naval department is
inclined to doubt that it indicates that
PeiXOto is i'll any such straits as is con-
veyed by the news dispatches. 1t is
also questioned whethe MellO would 20
back into Rio bay, exposing himself to
the fire of the forts, and then bring the
whole naval force away again past the
forts, thus, in effect, wholly abandoning
Rio.

NEW LABOR ORGANIZATION.
Claims 1t Win Become of National
Importance.

lii
LANSING, Mich, Jan. 4.-DeVelop-
ments here today disclose the existence
Of a new labor organization which its
promoters are confident Is to become of
great national Importance. Its exist
ence has not hitherto been made public,
although the organization was perfect
ed at secret meeting at the Palmer
house, Chicago, Dec. 2627. A secret
meeting of the "vice gerent national
committee" was held here today. The
committeeman are AZeriah Partridge,
Michigan: Hugo Preyer, Ohio: Thomas
Bosworth, Indiana; r. A. Thompson,
Pennsylvania; j. j. Streeter, New
Hampshire; E. S. Moore, Illinois. All
of these are her e except Bosworth and
Moore. Mr.. Partridge is apparently
the leader. He states that the Chicago
meeting was attended by delegates from
thirty-seven states, who formulated the
organization of the Ancient Order Of
Loyal Americans, which is designed to
include men of every calling, provided
they are loyal citizens. 1t is proposed
to work for the features in all previous
industrial platforms, and to be secret
organization. A complete ritual has
been adopted. Three degrees are pro-
vided for. There is to be a big free
circulating library, with headquarters
at Washington. The order is to be con-
Quoted by military orders from head
quarters transmitted 10 the state, and
ultimately to the cities and townships.
Implicit obedience is to be eXacted. 1.
The order is to be non-partisan and
non-sectarian, but Mr.. Partridge admits
that it will take prominent part in
politics, and will pursue aggressive
policies. MIR. Partridge states that it was
intended to issue the first general orders
at noon of Jan. Is. but that time will
not permit it. The above statements
were impaired guardediy, with the com
mittee's consent. They decline to state
the officers names.

Gold Shipments.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 4.-Some gossip
is being INDUCED in as to the probable
ity of further immediate gold shipments,
iii view of the fact that the average loss
Of gold to the treasury i'll january for
tine past twelve years has been $780,
600. Some treasury officials do not be-
lieve there is any prospect of such ship
ments, while others hold to the opinion
that with the stiffening of rates of ex
change such exports are altogether
probable. The belief is general, how
ever. that If such shipments are INDUCED
in the New York banks would not come
to the relief of the treasury to any con-
siderable extent, and thus prevent the
depletion Of gold reserve.

Miners Wages Reduced.

SHARON, Pa, Jan. "A reduction of
wages has been made at the Black
Diamond mines and the Chestnut Ridge
mines, operated by the Westerman
Filler Coal company, of this city, and the
Haliville, Williams Speer and Trout
mines, operated by other firms. Notices
have been posted that OF Jan. Is wages
will be reduced from 65 cents to 50
cents per ton. A thousand men are
effected. No trouble was anticipated
by the mine owners, as the miners were
looking for the reduction. The Mercer
county mines are forced to make the re-
duction to compete with the other
Western Pennsylvania mines that have
already made the same cut.

ABERDEEN. S. D.. Jan. a. 4.-Several
days ago James M. Allen, of Black
Hawk, Pennington county, committed
suicide by shooting himself through the
heart. He was born at Cleveland, o.,
sixty-one years ago, and spent the
greater portion OF his lite in the far
West. In 1868 he was in the Indian
campaign under Gen. Sully against the
hostile Sioux, ard later went South and
fought on the Union side in the War of
the Rebellion. He was clerk in the first
two legislatures, and charter member
of the first Masonic lodge in Dakota at
Yankton. Among his papers is the fol-
lowing article on when Suicide Is
Justifiable" The deceased says:
II wish now to correct the popular
idea that a man must necessarily be
insane who takes his own life. No
doubt some are, but 1 believe the
greater majority do so in full pos
session of their mental faculties,
and after dispassionate and in
telligent survey of their condition find
it hopeless to prolong a struggle for an
existence which holds out no hope, and
they sever the tie which binds them to
useless life. In my own case no one
can have keener conception of what
contemplate doing. l have thought the
matter over for years, studied it in all
Its bearings ana aspects, always arriY-
ing at the one conclusion-that when q
man. by reason of broken health, is in
capable of earning his living, and is a
burden to his friends, and is utterly
worthless in this world, can be of no
use to himself or his fellow men. then
he is best out of this life and take his
chances in another-lf there is another.
All that L would care to live for now is
age will produce. Most all the wonder
full inventions we now have the benefit
of have occurred in my lifetime. and
they are merely the forerun"er of
greater discoveries yet to come"
lie closed by writing: "Good-by to
the steady forty-pound pressure oil my
forehead and the ever-cutting pain in
the temples. Good-by, insomnia and
sleepless nights"
Mr.. Allen dressed himself in the most
careful manner for the awful deed. sr-
ranging his apparel so that nothing
would be disturbed or soiled by the bull

ciSion, placed beSiCe him for the use of

to send personal commissioner to
Hawaii, or, indeed, any commits
sioner without the concurrence
of the senate first obtained by
the confirmation of his nomination, and
this object is. of course, most effectively
reached by demanding the authority OF
the secretary of the treasury for the
payment of Commissioner Biount for his
services and expenses. The notice of
Senator Gray indicates that the
DEMOCRATS ARE DETERMINED
to dispose of the federal election bill at
an early day, and before it can pos
Slbly be hampered by the tariff bill or
any other party measures which might
come over from the house demanding
early consideration through motives of
party eXpediency. The bill will be
taken up Tuesday. and will continue
the paramount question in the senate
until finally disposed of.
Senator Berry, of Arkansas. called
up the house bill relating to the dis
qualification of registers and receivers
OF the United States land Offices, and
making provisions in case of such dis
qualification, and, after amendment, the
bill was passed.
An interesting colloQuy took place
over a suggestion of Senator Gray, of
Delaware, that the senate proceed to
the consideration of the federal election
bill. Senator Chandler (Rep., N. H.)
asked whether this was merely for the
purpose of allowing some senator to
speak or for general consideration.
For the general consideration" said
Senator Gray.
The views of the minority are not
yet prepared" said Senator Chandler,
land Will not be ready for some days
yet. l do not think we'll, therefore, TO
proceed with the consideration unless
some senator especially desires to speak
upon it today"
My understanding was that the
views OF the minority might be pre-
Sented at any time" said Senator Gray.
There are gentlemen OH this side,"
interrupted Senator Hoar. of MaSsa-
chusetts, "who desire to debate this
bill at considerable length"
Il have no doubt of that" quietly re-
torted Senator Gray. ~ suppose it will
involve considerable debate on both
sides, and for that purpose thought it
would be we'll to take it up at an early
day"
$50 far as am concerned" resumed
Senator Gray, Il will consent to the
suggestion of the gentleman from Mas
sachusetts to postpone the consideration
until Tuesday, and l now give notice
that on Tuesday, Immediately after the
morning business, will move that the
senate proceed to the consideration of
the federal election bill, and continue
with its consideration from Tuesday
until it is disposed Off
