THE NEXT SENATE.
Resume of the Legislative Elections Where

Resume of the Legislative Elections Where
Senators Are to he Chosen.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-Great interest
was manifested here in the legislative
elections throughout the country, as
they will materially affect the control
of the United States senate. Up to
yesterday the standing in the senate
was as follows: Republicans, 40; dem
ocrats, 80; populists, 6; vacant (Gemo-
craft, i; total, SO. As the result of
Yesterdays elections the democrats
will lose and the republicans will gain
n senator from Maryland. Kentucky
and Ohio respectively. The other leg
islative elections do not appear to
affect the standing in the senate as
Mississippi remains democratic, while
Iowa continues republican. Utah
chooses two United States senators for
the first time, but the complexion of
the legislature is not certain. The
Utah senators take their seats in the
senate shortly after congress assem-
bles. The changes in Ohio and Mary
land will not affect the senate until
March, 1897.
The republican majority in the next
Ohio legislature, as shown by the re-
turns from Ohio, insures the retire
ment of Senator Brice DEM and the
succession of republican. 1t appears
to be settled that eX-Gov. Foraker will
be the choice of the legislature, as the
state convention placed his name in
the platform as the senatorial candi-
date.
In Maryland the election of repub-
lican legislature, the first in many
years, will bring about the retirement
Of Senator Gibson and the election of
a republican in his place. The election
of republican legislature in Iowa was
not unexpected, and it is considered
settled that Senator Allison will be
elected to succeed himself
The return of democratic legisla-
ture in Mississippi has been foregone
conclusion. twill elect n successor to
Senator George. The returns from
New York and New Jersey indicate re-
publican gains. These legislatures
do not elect United States SEN
ators this year, but, as part of legisla-
lures hold over, the present election is
important in influencing these bodies
which will elect successors TO Senator
Hill, of New York, and Senator Smith,
of New Jersey, whose terms expire
March 4, 1897.

Insures Ed. Handy a Pull for
Three Years More.

A quiet ell ctlOn prevailed last Tues

of the opposition. Little or no inter

The only interest taken in the city
was over judgship Whitelaw carry
ing the town over Martin by rs votes.
John Q. Pdtten was the vote getter
on the ticket, having every string pull
ing his way, the prohibitionists and
the city administration, working hand
in hand for him,
Fay Smith is defeated by a small
majority, owing to lack of interest
taken in the country. Fay carried his
home ward by a good majority
Judge Martin carried Mcpherson by
400 and Harvey by S2t insuring Lis
election by about 800.

That Declaration by Balfour.

London. Sept. 1.-The Times will to- morrow say that the statement in the house of commons of the Rt. Hon. A. J. RaIfour. first lord of the treasury, that he would always favor an international agreement in respect of the currency, but that he had no right to pledge his colleagues, nor any reason for thinking that such an agreement at the present moment would result from any termlna- tion conference, gave blow to the bi- metallists in Germany and the United States. They have now no choice but to acquiesce in definite postponement of their favorite project. The Times will add: We trust the trade revival now in progress will complete the cure and that we will hear less of bimetallism from any quarter"

THIRD EDITION.
CUBANS ExULTANT.
They Do Not Believe Cases Will Be Made
 Against the fiIibusters.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1.-The circum- stances attending the capture of the Gu ban fiHbustering expedition at Penn's Grove, N. J., on Friday afternoon were the chief subject of discussion among the many local sympathizers with the revo- lutionary cause in Cuba. While deplor- ing the fate of the expedition, there was an app.Aent feeling of exultation among the CubsNs about the city over the mild manner iS which the United States au- thorities treated the prisoners at the hearing. They were all unanimous in the belief that case could not be made out against the alleged filibusterers be- cause of the fact that their destination could not be established unless one of the party should choose to crimnate himself and his comrades.
 The intereepting of this expedition will have no material effect here on the movement going on in this country looking to the emancipation of Cuba, said a prominent Cuban.
 ''The most that can be done is to con- fiscate the arms and ammunition seized. Aid of some sort or other is going to the revolutionists every day from the United States, Mexico and South America. We have more money than Spain to keep up the fight, and we will get our expeditions through at any risk"
 Another Cuban said two expeditions had successfully cleared last month one rom this port and another from Will mington. There were seventy-five men In all, with 300 rifles and 300, 900 rounds of ammunition. He also said the members Of the Wilmington party would keep in close touch until another expedition should be ready to start and then they would join it.

ENTHUSIASM ABoUNDED.
Celebration of the Twenty-Fith Anniversa
 " of Sedan in Germany.


 Berlin, Sept. 1.-Dispatches received here this evening show that almost ev- anywhere in Germany the twenty-fifth anniversary of the capture of Sedan from the French by the forces led by King Will liam, afterwards Emperor William l, the crown prince of Russia, afterward Elm peror Frederick, and the crown prince of Saxony, was celebrated with much en- thusiasm. At Frankfort-on-theM Main the celebration was specially noteworthy Eighteen thousand veterans, with bands and banners, marched to the Geological gardens. where a grand banquet was given. Enormous crowds gathered along the route followed by the veterans and cheered them again and again as they passed. In Munich there was a similar celebration. The city was decorated with flags and bunting and the streets were crowded with the inhabitants of the place and people from the surround ing towns and villages. Everywhere the patriotism of the people found vent in cheers for the men who took an active part in the events that led to the found- ing of the German empire.

IRON MARKET.

Cincinnati Aug 31.-The week closes in a whirl of excitement in the pig iron market. Foundry and forge irons were slow to respond to the great activity and rapid advances in Bessemer, but about the middle of the current week large buyers began to enter the market, and in .forty-eight hours transactions were closed of such magnitude as to com pei furnaces either to further advance prices or to withdraw from the market entirely. The leading southern sellers closed over 50,o00 tons in four days, all at full figures. Other furnaces, north and south, sold proportionately. On Satur- day advances were announced ranging from 50 cents to $1 per ton in leading grades of southern foundry and forge iron. Gray forge and mottled being in active request, were advanced most.
 Another important feature of the sit uation was the announcement on the 30th instant by the southern railroads of an advance of 30 cents per ton in freight rates effective September 15, the old rates to be protected on no orders after August 30 The effect of this advance is to advance the price of southern iron to a northern consumer from $1 to $1 50 per ton on all trades closed after this date.
 The center of greatest activity and ex- citement is in Pittsburg, where Besse- mer pig Is scarce and of such urgent de- mand that 1t is very difficult to say what prices might be realized if the iron were to be had; $17 has been had for Septem- Der delivery. One furnace operator de- scribed the market on Saturday as rang ing anywhere from SIG to s20 for standard BeSsemer.
 There are many who deprecate any eX- citement and warn producers against a too rapid advance in prices. but the in- exorable law of supply and demand is the only influence that can govern. If demand continues to increase prices must further advance. We have pointed out In these reports for months past the actual situation among the furnaces as to the output and the steady reduction of accumulated stocks.
 There iS of course, an urgent tendency to start up idle furnaces, but the diffi- culties of procuring ready supplies of ore and coke prevent or greatly delay the realization of plans. Meantime con- sumers are likely to have some difficulty in supplying their wants should general business continue to expand.
 We revise our quotations as near as possible in accordance with the market at its close.

TRAIT EARTHQUAKE. The Shock Was Not Felt in New York
 City

New York, Sept. 1.-According to the weather bureau it is indisputable that the earthquake which was felt in New Jersey passed on to New York but very few people could be found who would admit having felt shock. According to the assistant weather observer the sub terranean disturbance was felt in New Jersey, and 1t moved from south to the north. He himself distinctly felt 1t at 6:13 a. m. in his house in Brooklyn, and the shock must therefore of necessity have passed under the Manhattan is- land, although it by no means follows that the foundations of the island were shaken. Although there are several build ings within the city limits which have recently been reported unsafe by 1he building department and have required snoring np to prevent them from falling, no damage of any kind was reported by the police today.

Eleven Guests at a Birthday Party Myst

Chattanooga, Tenn. Sept 1-Manv guests at birthday party given last night at the home of James Reed, fin Loudon county, were poisoned by some thing they ate. Members of the Reed and Abbott families are very ill and one or two will die.
 How poison got into the food is a mat ter of conjecture. One theory is that Reed had loaded several watermelons with arsenic to catch thieves. who have been getting into his patch, and that some of these melons were eaten. An other theory is that a custard served had been allowed to stand some time in the brass kettle in which it was cooked By the use of antidotes all but one or two of the eleven victims were gotten out of ,1anCpr

They would not be greatly sur- prised if the mountain was to begin belching lava.
