Knute Nelson Has His Say.

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-"Minnesota
has candidate for president
Cushman X. Davis, and will push
his claims in the convention just
as long as he has any possible show
Of getting the nomination." said
Senator Knute Nelson Of st. Paul,
en- route to Washington last even
ing. While on the subject he said !:
"There is no telling what the con-
vention will do. All the candi-
dates-McKinley, Reed, Morton
and Allison are strong men. If we
have to let Senator Davis out of
the race, then l think Minnesota's
delegation will be about evenly di-
vided between Mckinley and Reed.
/ do not see wherein congresscan
do anything particularly in the
way of legislation to influence the
action OF the party next year in
its selection of a candidate for
president. The issues have al
ready been made. 1 hardly imagine
we will be able to do a great deal
of special legislation this winter.
While the lower houses is strongly
republican the senate is between
the democrats and the populists
in balance OF power, and of course
the executive branch is with them.
However, something will be done
on the financial question, and
whatever is done l am inclined to
think will be in the nature OF a
compromise. An effort will also
be made to so arrange the tariff
laws as to stop the tremendous i'm
portations, give our industries a
chance and at the same time
create a revenue sufficient to run
the government.

VAN ALLEN IN HOSPITAL.
He Will Appear On the Colt Divorce
Case When 10 Comes Up

Case When ID Comes Up
NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-James j.
Van Allen, who was brought into
unpleasant publicity recently as
the defendant in suit brought by
Col. Colt, Of Providence, r. l., for
100000 damages for alternating his
wife's affections, is convalescent
patient in the private sanitarium
OF DR.. w. T. Bull.
Mr.. Van Allen disappeared from
public view shortly after giving
bail, and many of his friends have
wondered what had become of him.
Some thought he had gone to
Europe. Only a few of his most
intimate friends have known Of
his whereabouts.
Mr.. Van Allen has not been in a
condition to take an active part in
the proceedings to patch up the
troubles in the Colt family, but all
that has been done he has sane
toned from his bed in the sani-
tarium. Mr.. Van Aliens visit to
the sanitarium was rendered nec-
essary by his physical condition,
which was serious. The danger
was removed by a very severe
surgical operation by DR.. Bull.
Mr.. Van Allen is credited by his
club friends with being one of the
best cross country riders in the
world. He is passionately fond Of
hunting, and no fence was too high
for him to take when on an eX-
citing chase. 1t was during a
spirited hunt in England on the
occasion of his last visit abroad
that he received the injury which
eliminated in his being subjected
to the surgeons knife. Mr.. Van
Allen met with an accident some
what similar to the one which re-
suited in the sad death Of j. w.
Mackay, Jr., near Paris recently.
His horse which had an ugly tenn
per, stumbled, and Mr.. Van Allen
was thrown violently against a
tree. 1t was discovered that the
inner lining membranes of the
lower part of the right side OF the
abdomen had been lacerated and
torn. The operation performed by
DR.. Bull is said to have been very
successful.

Broderick's Note to Tom Reed.


New YORK, Nov. pa dis
patch to a local paper from Wash
ington says: Congressman Thomas
b. Reed, of Maine has just eX-
perienced a new sensation. 1t
came in the form of a letter from
Mr.. Broderick, of Kansas. Mr..
Broderick wrote that as the only
republican member of the com.
mittee on printing, he might prop
erly claim the craftsmanship in
the next house, but that he would
not do SO; that he preferred; on
the contrary, not to embarrass the
prospective speaker with an appli-
cation of any character, and that
he hoped that Mr.. Reed would feel
at liberty to place him wherever
he choose. Mr.. Reed at once die
tated a reply,expressing his graft
tication at Dir. Broderick's unself-
ishness and adding jocularly that
his request was so reasonable that
it should certainly be complied
with. Mr.. Broderick's letter was
then filed away with other papers,
bearing in Mr.. Reeds hand writ.
ing this endorsement: "a rare
curiosity-to be preserved for fu-
ture generations"

A Preacher in Trouble.

DENVER, Col, Nov. 29.-Rev. F.
F. Passmer, formerly pastor of a
church at Breckenridge, Col, has
been cited for trial on December s,
before the Colorado conference of
the Methodist Episcopal church,
being charged with falsehood and
dissension. The charges grow out
of an article published by the min

bishops and ministers of the Meth
odist church had "joined hands
with gamblers, Sabbathbreake ,sa-
loonkeepers and harlots" and were
supporting "every sin and crime OF
