HOODLCMS JUBlLANT.

HE EXPECTS TO BE ABLE TO SECURE Mr.. PECK-
HAMS REJECTION EY THE SENATE.
Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Hi stated
frankly to-day that he intended to defeat the
confirmation OF Mr. Pcckham nominated to be
Associate Justice OF the Supreme Court Of the
United States. II be could. He IS confident
of success and it is probable that a number Of
documents against Mr.. Peckham Will be laid
before the judiciary Committee at its meeting
Monday.
The statement was made with some positive
ness Yesterday that during the last Administra-
ton the Judiciary Committee laid down a rule
OF action, and communicated their determina-
ton to President Harrison, that they would not
report favorably upon the confirmation OF any
nominee for Justice Of the Supreme Court who
was over sixty years Of age. 1t seems, so far
as can be learned. that this was an informal
agreement reached some time ago. and II 1t
is to be revived now could be used to place Mr..
Peckhain under the ban without going further
into the merits or the demerits OF his case. as
he was born on January J. 1888. and Is therefore
sixty-one years OF age.
All the members Of the judiciary Committee
are in the city with the possible exception OF
Mr. Lindsay. Of Kentucky. and the indications
seem to be that no dilatory measures will be re-
sorted 10 In this case. but that there will be
prompt and unfavorablc acton on the nomina-
ton. Friends of Senator Hill say that he has
departed from his usual retlcence and has
openly announced his belief that Mr.. Peckhams
nomination will be defeated by a more decisive
vote than Mr. Hornbowcr's. 1t is pointed out
that the unanimous acquiescence by the Senate
in the wishes OF the Missouri Senator's In the
Scott Harrison case, following 80 closely upon the
rejection OF the Hornbower nomination at the
request OF the New-York Senators, establishes
precedent which Will be observed in the case OF
Mr.. Peckham. Meantime with Senator Murphy
on the Commerce Committee, To which nomi-
nations of all Treasury officers and consuls go,
and Senator Hill on the Judiciary Committee,
which takes charge Of all judges United States
marshal and district-attorneys, nominations of
New Workers not in political sympathy with the
New-York Senators seem to have before them a
hard road to travel.
Wheeler II. Peckham said yesterday that II the
Senate Judiciary Committee had rule which pre-
vented the confirmation of for the Supreme
Bench who over sixty years old. he would
not be eligible for the place Mr.. Peckham would
express opinion as 10 the probable action OF
the Senate his nomination

BERLIN, October 20.---A dispatch from
st. Petersburg, published by the
National ZeituRg this afternoon, says:
According to special information from
medical authority now at Livadia, the
Gar, during the last forty-eight hours,
has been seized with series of convul
sions. The attacks were accompanied
by several hours of temporary uncon
seriousness. 1t is added that his death
cannot long be delayed"
LONDON, October 2O.-When the con
tents of the bulletin issued at St. Peters.
burg last night became generally known
today there was "A feeling of relief in
knowing the Car still lives, as the
official silence of the previous twent!
four hours had created intense anxiety
Private advices from Livadla state that
toward midday yesterday the gravel
symptoms continued. These advice'
agreed that his Majesty was terribly
depressed throughout the day.
ST. PETERSBURG, October 20.-lt il
stated on the best OF authority that thu
Czarina is very i'll, and her son, til,
Grand Duke George, is dying. 1t is alsC
stated that the Car, before his illness
entered upon its final stages, had {
solemn interview with the Czarowiz, il
which he indicated the policy he desired
him to pursue, and also insisted upor
his marriage to Princess AliX, who wa.
summoned to Livada to receive the
dying blessing OF the Gar. The theater:
will be closed for six months after the
death OF the Car.
The latest report from Livadia indi.
Gates that although the Car is still alive
he is Iapidly weakening.
VIENNA, October 20.-A dispatch from
st. Petersburg to the Neue Freie Press
says: The Czarina, who had watched
constantly until today at her husband
bedside, has had a stroke apoplexy. The
Grand Duchess Xeina, her eldest daugh
ter, has broken down under the nevous
strain and is obliged to pass most Of the
time in bed
The Gar was tapped today for the
uropsy.
1t is improbable that Princess Alix
will reach Livadia in time to be married
to the Czarowitz before the Cars death
BIARRITZ, October 20.-A telegram
was received here last night from the
Gar himself by the Princess Yourowski
better known to the public as Princess

ANXIETY IN GERMANY.


Political Circles Disturbed by the Inn
pendine Death of the Czar.
BERLIN, Oct. 20. 49, The impending
death of the Car is the subject of the
greatest interest in political circles. 1t
overhangs like cloud the future politi-
cal attitude of Russia in affairs which
closely concern Germany. When the
Gar held the political reins Russia S
policy could, more or less, be foreseen
by statesmen here, and his personality
was recognized in great measure as IA
guarantee of peace. But with the ad-
vent of the Czarowitz the future is oh.
scured, as there is the greatest conflict
of opinion respecting the views he may
hold in regard to the best foreign
policy for Russia. The opinion, how
ever, in well-infOrmed circles, among
people who have been in personal con
tact with the Czarowitz, Is that it woulC
be great mistake to regard him as tn,
enemy of Germany. The Czarowiti
has shown no prediction for any par
ticular nation, and certainly not TO
France. No anxiety would exit if i
were certain that Rpssia's foreign re
lations would continue to be directed b,
the present council of Ministers, o.
whom the majority haveibeen proven
to be inspired 10y the traditional senti
ment of enmity toward the German PEG

Petersburg, published by the National
Zsitung, and according to special infor-
nation from medical authority now at
Liyadia, the Gar during the last forty
eight hours has been seized with IA series
OF convulsive attacks, accompanied Tor
several hours by Inconsistencies The
attacks were due to the passage into
the blood OF secretions which the
kidneys cannot longer carry off. The
Car is also described as suffering from
great weakness OF the heart and also TO
frequent attacks OF congestion OF the
lungs. This blood poisoning is now re-
curing with alarming frequency. The
temporary rallies may intervene, but
death cannot long he delayed.

NEGOTIATIONS FOR PEACE.

What the Great Powers Have Tried to
Accomplish.
LONDON, Oct. l9.-The Daily Neirs
publishes this semi-official statement: A
day or two after the last Cabinet cOun-
ell China informed Great Britain that
she was prepared to negotiate for peace
on certain terms. Great Britain made
overtures to the powers on a new basis
of negotiation, and asked Japan
whether the terms of such form the
basis of negotiations for peace.
Japan did not reply definitely, but has
not rejected the proposals. A majority
of the powers are in accord with Great
Britain, and there is likelihood that the
others will assent. The intervention is
purely diplomatic and is otfrIel to both
combinations in the friendliest manner.
