NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-Justice Barrett, of
the Supreme Court, was seen to-day regard
ing the application TO be made by Lillian
Russell for an order allowing her TO marry
Perugini in this State. The justice admitted
that an informal application had been made

sented to Justice Barrett in an informal
manner, without being put in shape in the
form of papers, and Mr.. Hummel asked for
an expression Of opinion as TO whether the

marry again in this State. The justice stated
that upon the facts presented TO him he
had expressed grave doubts TO whether
the court would grant the order asked for.

GAVE BIG "TIP" POISON.
Au thsritiss of Central Park Trying to
Destroy the Murderous Elephant.

Au thsritiss of Central Park Trying to
Destroy the Murderous Elephant.
NEW YORK, May 11.-Elephant Tip
was unquestionably great sinner in his
day. but he is being greatly sinned
against in his taking off. Park Commits
sioners Clausen, Strauss and Bell, accom-
panied by Superintendent Smith and
Secretary Burns. arrived at Central Park
at o'clock in company with Drs. Hun
tington, Allen and Spitska. At 6:5915
they gave Tip a carrot in a cavity Of
which were two ounces of cyanide of po-
tassium.
The elephant swallowed it and then
elected it. Afterwards he was given an
apple with a similar dose, which he
swallowed. Another dose and piece of
bread charged charged with cynide of
potassium he refused to touch. At 1909
Old Tip began to vomit, and continued
retching for half an hour. His legs
were beginning to wobble a little, but
the only poison he had really swallowed
so far was that contained in an apple.
The commissioners are evidently weary
of the job, and the doctors are in despair
of ending the elephants career by the
means adopted l indeed, DR.. Spitska
had advised against the resort to cynide
/ of potassium, and expressed doubt of its
result.

A CoxEYITE CONQUEST.
IFrom the St. Louis Republic.l

From the St. Louis Republic
There have been two Coxey armies in
Washington.
One struggled across the mountains,
camped on the outskirts of the capital,
made farcical parade along Pennsylva-
MIA avenue. and went back to camp to
wait while its leaders were tried for
tramping on the grass.
That army will not succeed in increas-
ing the taxation of the people to provide
easy jobs for class of individuals.
Much better has the other army Jared
1t has kept off the grass, but has tram
Fled the shape out of the tariff bill 1t
could employ senators a1d congressman,
could extend its long arm into the finance
committees work, could threaten with
the votes of immigrant labor it controls,
could set champagne to flowing like wat
er, and could use the machinery of tho
lobby every hour in the day.
One kind of paternalism is playing
out because it has not pull enough to
succeed. The other kind has scored an
important preliminary success, because
it had pull enough to own a whole politi-
cal party and to seduce several senator's
from the Democratic side.
For every million the tariff gives to
the government it gives at least four to
private interests The amendments are
capable of producing $1OO,OOO,OOO easily
for the Coxey army who forced them on
the committee Every dollar is taken
from the earnings of the masses. Many
of the dollars go to trusts. which already
make profits by the million. The agri-
cultural South and West get next to 10
compensation for this sacrifice.
Coxeyism fails when it goes afoot, and
succeeds when it rides in Pullmans.

President of Ancient Order HibernIans
Calls 1t un-American.

OMAHA, Neb., May 1.-The first bust
ness before the ancient order Hibernians
convention today was the report of the
committee on revision of legislation,
after which national delegate read his
annual address. He urged the establish
ment of Hibernian labor bureaus in every
city of the country is urged.
After urging that the stars and stripes
be raised over Catholic schools, President
Willie said:
at is our duty to ourselves, to our
children and to our children's children
to stand up like manly men and com bat
this modern know-nothingism, which is
spreading over the land in the guise of
an organization called the A. P. A. In
my judgment, brethren, it is our duty to
fight this un-American organ and its
professed principles with every weapon,
with which American freemen should
fight the battle of right and justice as
against the accursed spirit of bigotry
and intolerance, which should find no
place under free institutions, but which
unfortunately runs riot through our
country at the present time"

BARNEY SHERIDAN, the Democratic ed
itor of the Paola Spirit. says it is the duty
of the Democrats of Kansas to hold the
balance of power in the next legislature
and elect United States senator. He
says: ave are for Hon. John Martin for
United States senator and firmly believe
that the only way or plan by which he
can be reelected is for the Democrats to
elect enough straight Democrats to the
house to hold the balance of power in
the legislature next winter. If Populists
get majority they will kick him over
board for one of their own party and if
Republicans have a majority they will do
the same. But let there be enough Dem
ocrats to turn the scale and they can
dictate the election. We are for sending
Democrat to the United States senate
for six years WHISTLER by. Populist or Re
publican votes"

P0PULTsT POLITICS.

The state campaign has actively com
menced, so far as the Populists are con-
cerned- Not day passes but that the
mails are filed with tracts and documents
to renew the failing faith OF the Popu-
listic converts. A part of Labor Com
missioner Todd's report will be used to
prove to the farmers that farming doesn't
pay and that the fault lies in vicious leg
islation. An extract has been culled
from Secretary tCoburn's last quarterly
agricultural report, the address of Hon.
Daniel W. Needham of Boston, on the
farming industry, which takes a dark
view of the farmers lot These will be
sent out in addition to the many pamph-
lets issued under direction of the state
central committee.
The denomination of Governor Lew
elling now seems to be a foregone con-
clusion and the state officers argue that
this will carry with it the entire old
ticket with possibly one or two excep-
tions. One of the exceptions is Secre-
tary of State Osborn. The prevailing
sentiment is that it will not be policy to
cucumber the ticket with his name-Os-
born talks too much-and the state adj
ministration is very much afraid of his
pyrotechnical ebullitions.
1t was hoped he would go into the
race for congress in the Sixth district
but it is quietly limited that he has aban-
doned that idea and the crowd is fgur-
ing how he can best be let down grace
fully.
A prominent candidate against Osborn
is ]. w. Amos of Smith Center who
is now county superintendent of public
instruction. Amos is a very popular
man in his own county and stands a good
chance Of being nominated.
Another man who will probably be
sacrificed for the good of the party is
Lieutenant Governor Percy F. Daniels.
Some time ago a scheme was Matched
to turn him down. The plan was to ap-
pease the Democrats by placing the name
of Charles Robinson the ticket for
second place. To this end, the gossip is,
he was invited by Governor Lewelling
to appear on behalf of the petitioners in
the freight rate case before the railroad
commissioners. Robinson was not radi-
cal enough and talked altogether
too peaceably to make i'm
preston on the PopuIist voters.
There is also talk that he
could not poll the entire Democratic
vote on account of his long service in po-
litical life.
The plan of making Robinson Iieuten-
ant governor went further. 1t was or
iginally intended as a move to crafty
both the ambition of Lewelling and Rob-
inson- Gov. Lewelling would like to be
John Martins successor in the United
States senate while it has long been ex-
Governor Robinson's fondest hope to
again sit in the executive chair. So it
was planned that if the state ticket and
the legislature be elected, Lewelling is
to be elected United States senator re-
signing the office of governor. This
would make Robinson his successor and
governor of Kansas. OF course this is
Populist gossip and is given for what it
Is worth.
