The Kentucky senatorship !.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. 26.-From
now until the Legislature meets, in
less than two weeks, the politics
of the state will be growing more
and more interesting. The indica-
lions are that the coming session
of the legislature will be about the
liveliest the state will have wit
messed for years, and politicians
and citizens generally will be on
the watch from day to day. When
the democrats nominate their can
didate and the republicans name
theirs, the contest will have just
started, for the election will fol-
low, and as the legislature now
stands, neither side will be able to
elect its man. There will likely be
several preliminary fights in the
house of great interest. The repub-
licans propose to adopt Reeds
rules, with some notifications and
changes that will permit them to
unseat a democrat or two, for the
purpose of getting majority on
joint ballot, and this attempt will
be bitterly resisted by the large
democratic minority, and the
democrats will have the experience
in legislation and parliamentary
practice on their side.

More Car Strike Trouble.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 3d.
The Street railway trouble broke
out afresh yesterday in the Girard
avenue branches, and as conse-
quence, no cars were running on
that line. The men claim the dis
trict superintendent In sending out
cars this morning, gave preference
to new men. The old men stood
around and saw nearly all cars go
out with imported motormen and
conductors running them, and
finally started a revolt. Obstruc-
tions were pied on the track and
threats were made OF a riot IL
attempts were made to remove
them. Serious trouble was avoided
on the Girard avenue branch by
the company agreeing to put the
old men to work. The same pacific
measure was adopted on the Second
and Third street branches.

Silver Men Pleased.

WASHINGTON, d. G., Dec. 90
The purpose OF the ways and
means committee to report two
bills instead of coupling the tariff
and the financial measures which
they have under consideration in
one bill gives great satisfaction to
the free silver republicans who
would otherwise have been COM
PEELED to antagoniZe their own
party since few II any of the num-
bers favor bond issue. Before
proceeding to this extremity they
would have urged on the floor OF
the house the separation OF the two
measures. A hasty canvass made
by them yesterday developed the
fact that their proposed protest
would have been warmly support
ed by many of the anti-silver re-
publicans on the ground that it
would be maniiestly unfair to
place them in any attitude of hos
tility to their party when no ne
cessity existed for it.

BANKERS
viii Bounce the treasurer.

CAMDEN, n. j., Dec. 26.-Ex-City
Comptroller Samuel Hufty, who
was employed by the finance COM
mittee OF Camden city council as
an expert to examine and audit
the accounts of City Treasurer
Michellen, appeared before that
body Monday night and stated
that he would not be able to make
a report for weeks. He said that
the examination he had already
made showed that $4,000 worth of
coupons Of bonds, which had been
paid, had never been entered In
the cash book, and that the books
had not been properly audited
since 1892. Some accounts he de-
clared had not been posted as far
back as 1883.
After receiving the information
the committee adjourned without
taking action until Thursday night.
There is strong probability that
when the city council meets a sue
cessor to City Treasurer Michellen
will be chosen.

alleges that his wife, prior to his
marriage with her, he being ig-
norant of the fact, had been mar
ried three times in Russia and
twice in this country, and that
she had never obtained divorce
from any of her husbands. The
names of her usbands, in the or
der of their marriages, are Hans
Kostofsky, Meyer Hurevetz, Isaac
Winkavitz and Aaron Ikebaum.
Thorne does not know the name of
the fifth husband, but alleges that
they are all alive. Mrs. Thorne adj
mits having been twice divorced
in Russia, and also from No. 3,
whom she married in this city.
She says a lawyer gave her papers

A s,range Copclusior .

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26. The
dem ocrats of the house will op-
pose unanimously, so far as can be
ascertsined, the revenue bill which
the republicans will bring in today.
Both the silver and anti-silver
democrats assert that there is no
necessity for an increase in the
revenues, as they claim that the
available cash in the treasury over
and above the gold reserve is
amply sufficient to meet any def
ciencies that may occur for the
next two years, when they exp CT
the receipts from the present tariff
law to equal or to exceed the ex-
penditures. Up to this point dem
ocrats seem to agree.

DRUNK AND DANGEROUS.

nent and popular young men OF
this place, son Of one OF the leading
merchants of the town, is lying at
the home of his father at the point
of death from knife wounds infiict-
ed by John w. Morris, a young
man well known in the town and
county, and who is now occupying
a safe cell lin the county jail.
Young Sewell has been the man.

ly acquaintances, but warm friends.
Monday afternoon about 6 o'clock
Morris was we'll under the influence
OF liquor. He entered the Sewell
store, and 1T was not long before
he and young Sewell were quarrel
ing, resulting from Sewell's re-
quest to Morris to leave the store
oneaccount of his intoxicated con-
dition in the presence OF throng
OF Christmas shoppers. Morris
took offense, and trying to provoke
fight jerked out his pocketknife,
a long bladed, dangerous weapon,
and started for Sewelf. The town
marshal was present and sprang
at Morris, but before he could
reach him he had driven the knife
into young Sewell three times,
making as many wounds. One Of
the wounds is in the neck and it is
feared that it will prove fatal.

Fighting in Turkey.

CoNsTANTINoPLE, via Sofia, Bull
garia, Dec. 26.--Advices received
from Beyrout say that a severe
fight has taken place between Tur-
kish troops and the Druzes, near
Soud1ch. The fight occurred De-
cember 81, and according to official
report the Druzes lost 1920 killed,
while only seventy Turks were
killed and fifty wounded. The
representative of the powers have
entered a protest to the commits
sion which controls the execution
of the reforms, and Sir Phillip
Currie, the British ambassador,
has demanded the immediate re-
call of the Kadi of Moosch, who is
accused of melting Mussulmans to
disturbance. 1t is reported from
Marsus that disturbances have oc-
Cured there between Mussulmans
and Christians. The outbreak,
however, was soon quelled by the
authorities. This disturbance is
believed to explain the arrival OF
the missionaries and Christian
families at Messina on December
II. Advices from the Island of
Crete say there have been no seri-
Gus disturbances there.

princess began existence on the
Midway Christmas morning, and
to celebrate the event the small

small band of warriors at the fair.
The birth of the child was an
nounced to the warriors this morn

their preparations for dance.

COLLEGE CHESS PLAYERS
Will Battle for the intercollegiate
Challenge Cup az the An
nual Tournament.

New YORK, Dec. 26.-The an
nual intercollegiate chess tourna-
ment will be held at the Harvard
club, commencing today, and con-
tinuing to the LIST of January, in
elusive. The colleges represented
are Yale, Princeton, Columbia and
Harvard. The preliminary trials,
which were held at each of the col
leges early in the month, have
shown Harvard's men to be the
most skillful at the game. Harvard
won the cup last year, and she has
a very good chance of retaining it.
Lewis and Southland, of Harvard,
both did some very fine work in
the preliminary tournament, and
it is thought that if they can do as
well now as they did then the cup
will not leave their college. Mars
ton and Seymour, of Princeton,
beat all contestants in the prelim-
mary games. There were fourteen
entries. The deciding game be-
tween themselves lasted for more

quired eight hours to play. Sey-
mour finally won. The game in
volved the championship of Prince
ton for the current year. Price, of
Columbia, played last year and
made an excellent record. Ross,
his team-mate, is not considered
the very best of Columbia's men,
and the chances of Columbia's
winning are very slim. Very little
is known about Murdoch, of Yale,
he being a freshman. In the pre-
liminary work he made clean
score, winning ten games. The fol-

LONG EXPECTED COME AT LAST.
Steamer strathnevis Arrives After
a Terrible Experience

4oEElO" 6xperlSuS6
PORT TowsEND, Wash, Dec 90
Steamship Strathnevis, which
sailed from Tacoma Oct. 18th for
the Orient and was about given up
for lost, arrived in port at mid
night, in tow of the Steamer Mine-
ola. Officers report remarkable
voyage, filled with dangers and
privations. On Monday afternoon
last all hope OF saving the vessel
was abandoned and the boats were
manned preparatory to leaving the
vessel, as she was in imminent
danger drifting ashore on Destruc-
ton Island. Grave fears are en-
tertained for the safety of the
Australian Steamship Mower,
which had the Strathnevis in tow
for five days. Ten miles off Cape
Flattery on last Friday afternoon
during a violent gale, the two steel
hawsers parted suddenly and the
Mower. disappeared in the storm.
She had exhausted the larger por-
ton OF her fuel. The log of the
Strathnevis tells a story that is
seldom duplicated in the an
nails of marine history, and
more especially in the north
Pacific Ocean. Leaving Vic
toria October 18th with 1870 pas
sengers and As officers and crew,
with moderate weather, a running
speed of ten knots was made until
October Goth, az $40 In the morn
ing, when the ship experienced a
terrific shock, the crash sounding
like the explosion Of cannon. The
big steamer trembled fore and aft
and lay quivering like wounded
iawn. The shaft had snapped short
off close to the propeller, which
dropped clear of the vessel and
went to the bottom. A strong
northern gale was coming on and
all sail was crowded on. Two small
masts without yards were schoon
er-rigged. The accident occurred
about 1870 miles south Of Onalaska.
Slowly the gale carried the vessel
to the southwest, and it was two
days later before she could make
any progress toward the east. From
that time on under rig gag course
she sailed slowly toward Cape Flat
terry.

terday. The weather prophet had
been correct in his predictions. 1t
was a green Christmas, with an
atmosphere to suit Jacksonville,
Fla. The usual crowds went to the
early masses and the religious
ceremonies later in day were
largely attended. The musical
programs in Episcopal and Cath
Ollie churches were elaborated and
very attractive and greatly
pleased the tens OF thousands, that
thronged the edifices. Perhaps the
greatest crowds were at st. Paul's
Cathedral and Old Olney. At st.
Francis Xavier's church in west
sixteenth street, the services were
especially elaborate. At all the
