WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S-The most sig
the announcement of the resignation OF
Senator Walthall. of Mississippi 1t was
unexpected. and when the presiding officer
laid before the Senate let
ter from the Senator announcing
that he had forwarded his resignation to
the Governor of Mississippi, the greatest
surprise was expressed on all sides. SEN
ator Walthall is sixty-three years old. and
succeeded the late L. O. c. Lamar in the
Senate nine years ago. His retirement
causes general regret among his colleagues,
as Senator Walthall is very popular in the
Senate. The Senator. in his letter to Gov.
Stone, resignng his seat, says:

which they have committed 10 me when I'M

you to repeat to the people of the State

shall appear TO be my duty to the people OF
Mississippi under the conditions existing at
that time.
The present term Of Senator Walthall
would expire March 3, 1895, but he has al
ready been elected for another six years, or
until March g. 1901. He resigns the unex-
pired portion of his present term, and, as
he states in his letter. leaves to future de-
termination the question of the full six years
beginning in 1895. Among the men most
prominently mentioned about the Capitol to-
lay as the successor of Senator Walthall,
are Representative John NJ. Allen, OF the
First district: Governor Stone, Attorney
general Marshall. and Representative 7. G.
Catchings, of the Third district.

QUEER CONDUCT OF JURORS.
After Signing Verdict Against Ex-Sen-
atOr SabinTwo Change Their Minds.

CHICAGO, Jan 1S-In the suit Of II. II.
Porter against ex-senator Sabin, In the
United States Court, the jury this morn
ing came into court with verdict in favor
of Porter for s13O61S. The defendant asked
for a poll of the jury. and two members
said they had not agreed to the verdict.
Judge Grosscup sent them back TO delib-
crate further The verdict of s13O,61S repre-
sents the principal and interest of 100000
which Porter invested with Senator Sabin
In an enterprise which failed. Porter
brought suit, claiming that Sabin was re-
sponsible for his loss. After lengthy de-
liberation the jury again appeared and an
nounced that it was unable TO agree, and
was discharged by Judge Grosscup.
Juryman Aylwin said tonight: when
the jury retired on Tuesday We stood six
Tor Porter and six for Sabin. That was the
situation for about twelve hours, and then
some began to- weaken. Finally there were
LETT only Shenk and myself. On Wednesday
evening Shenk began to weaken, and when
i saw that he was going over TO the ma
1ority l announced that l did not want TO
stand out against eleven men, and / signed
the verdict with tie rest. / was sorry for
ii, and when L went home that night / was
would repair the wrong / felt that 1 had
done as soon as l got an opportunity"
Shenk s statement was identical with that
of Aylwins. The whole case hinged on the
question whether Secor, Sabin * Co. were
insolVent and this has not been settled to the
satisfaction of the jury yet. The case will
be placed on the calendar for another trial.

NOMINATION HELD UP.
Protest Against the Confirmation OF
HanawaIt to lie Postmaster.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, jan 18-There Is a hitch
In the Senate committee on postofiices and
post roads over the nomination OF V. c.
Hanawalt, to be postmaster at Logans-
port The nomination has been held up on
charges preferred against the nominee.
Some letters and an affidavit or two have
been laid before the committee stating
that Hanawalt Is an extremely unpopular
citizen of Logansport and that his nomi-
nation was made In payment for services
which he rendered National Committeeman
s. p. Sheerin and others interested in the
gas plant of Logansport by procuring GER
tain franchises and privileges at the hands
of the City Council. and manipulating af
fairs in the interest of this corporation
and against the interests of the citizens
there. 1t is alleged that the improper
motive which brought about the nomna-
ton and the intense unpopularity of Han
await should be enough to cause the COM
mittee to report the nomination adversely
and the Senate TO reject il. Had it not
been for these chargs. which are well
authenticated, the nomination would have
been acted upon favoraby some days ago.

Cincinnati Ticket Scalpers Make War

CINCINNATI, o., JAN 1S-Brokers of
this city have boycotted the Pennsylvania
railroad on Chicago business. There was
opposition to the action among the
scalpers, and it was not adopted with
unanimty. The resolution is said to have
been inspired by belief that the policy of
the road is inimical to the interest of the
brokers' Some time ago it was discovered
that the Pennsylvania had inaugurated
plan by which any person purchasing
mileage book could present it at the ticket

three hundred miles taken out he was
given in return ticket to Chicago thereby
