ONLY THIRTEEN.

The Democrats in the Northern States
Muster the Unlucky Number.
WASHINGTON, Nov 30.--Not until to-
day have the officials of the house felt
sufficient confidence in their unofficial
list of representatives in the fifty-fourth
congress to send it to the printer. AS
finally prepared the list shows 244 re-
publicans. 1O4 democrats, and 6 popu-
lists, l silver and l vacant. The repub-
licans will constitute more than two
thirds of the house membership. Sec
tionally the republican majority will be
divided az follows: New England states,
2G; old middle states, &C; middle western
states, 90; far western states, %; south
ern states, 80.
The democrats secure only thirteen
members in the Northern states. Cali
fornia and Massachusetts contribute n
each; Illinois. Ohio and Pennsylvania
two each and New York five. The dem
ocrats secure six solid state delegations,
those of Arkansas, Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi and South Caro-
lima; the republicans secure nineteen
solid delegations; those of Connecticut,
Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Maine,
Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota,
Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota,
Vermont, Washington, West Virginia
and Wisconsin.
In all twenty-eight contests may be
made from the southern states aud a
majority of them arc to be instituted by
republican candidates against democrats,
but it now appears probable that there
will not be SO many. Mr.. Myers, who it
was expected would wagea contest for
the seat from the Sixth Arkansas dis
trict, is now quoted as saying that he
will make no effort to secure the seat in
the face of the fact that his opponent If
credited with a 5000 majority. Late
advices also indicate that Lee Crandall
will abandon the contest against Gen
Wheeler for the seat from the Eighth
Alabama district.

FARGO, Nov. 3.-Sone kilograms sent

in his testimony denied that he ever sent
kilograms regarding Anderson and other
witnesses. He said Deveraux collected
evidence and he himself did not know
who the witnesses were or the character
of their evidence until they appeared on
the stand. Manager Haywood OF the
Western Union was ordered to produce
in court the kilograms. The first read
was regarding Bailey, the Palmer House
employee. Deveraux telegraphed that
Bailey would not testify for less than
$500. Hershtield answered that the evil
dence was not valuable enough to give
$500. Another from Deveraux, supposed
to refer to Anderson, said: 'Refuses to
come for less than $500 and expenses"

Il Student in an Eastern Seminary Makes

LITTLE FALLS, N. Y. Nov. IA
special to the st. Louis Republic says:
B. Foote of Deansville, n. y. a student
at the Fairfield seminary, seven miles
from this city, became violently insane
last Sunday night in consequence of an
10 jury received in a football game. Foote
was center rush for the seminary eleven
and was a good player and enthusiastic
over the game. On Saturday the team
played at Fort Plain against the strong
team of the Clinton Liberal institute. In
the course of the game Foote was hurt
on the head, but the injury was appar-
emily trivial. On Sunday night at about
l o'clock be arose and dressed himself in
his football suit. Sleeping with him
was a young fellow from Syracuse, his
roommate. Foote seized him and threw
him violently to the floor, crying, Nov,
are you down. His roommate shouted,
"Down!' and at the same time cried for
help, realizing that Foote was a raving
maniac and was likely to do him harm.
Before assistance could be mad the in
sane mar fiercely jumped upon him.
Several students rushed into the room
and Foote, seeing them, threw his
valise at the leader, shouting, Now catch
the ball and 60 around the end!" The
valise struck the student in the head
water pitcher and an oil can and with
these weapons held the students at bay.
Badly frightened they made for their
rooms and locked the doors. One stu
dent, who was in the hall, was pursued
by the insane youth, and to escape him
he jumped from a second story window,
thirty feet to the ground. hurting his
knee pan. He managed, however, to
hobble to the building occupied by the
faculty and aroused them. Ladders
were procured and the students who had
sought refuge in their rooms vera res
cued from the windows.
Foote amused himself until daylight
in lining up against the doors, and with
his valise for the football rushing anC
knocking them off their hinges. He
guarded the stairs and would not lei
anyone near him. He also threw severa
articles through the window. No ont
would venture near the lad to capture
him. Finally the football team lined VI
in the yard below, and Foote, seeing
them, went down and took his place a
center. Then a constable seized hin
from behind and bound MIN. He wa
placed in a room and his parents wer
sent for. They took him to the Utic
asylum, where is now confined. Tn
football team has been disbanded.
