Gotfried Walbaum, Dennis McLaughlin,
Jacob Crusius and John H. Carr will have
to undergo their sentence of one years
Imprisonment and $1,000 fine each unless
saved by the court Of pardons. The court
of errors and appeals at Trenton, N. j.,
has unanimously affirmed the sentence i'm
posed by Supreme Court Justices Dixon,
Magic and LippiHcott. The appeal was
taken on stay, which will run out on the

Whether a. Peer May Sit There Causes
an Animated Debate.

Whether a Peer May Sit There Causes
an Animated Debate.
The question as to whether a member of
the house of commons who becomes peer
of the realm can continue to sit in the
house of commons, or whether a peer can
be elected to membership of the house of
commons, was brought up in the latter
body yesterday and caused a lively session.
There was a large crowd in the galleries
to see the excitement when the Earl Of
Selborne, who, as Fiscount Wolmer, repre-
sented West Edinburgh in the house Of
commons and who succeeded to the title
MAY ) by the death Of his father took his
seat as usual.
Thereupon Henry Labouchere, member
for Northampton, asked the speaker
whether the earl was entitled to sit in the
house of commons.
The speaker questioned the earl on the
subject, with the result that he asked him
to withdraw to the bar of the house until
the question of his right to sit as mem
Der OF the house of commons was decided
The Earl OF Selborne complied with the
speakers request ard the chancellor of the
exchequer. Sir William Vernon Harcourt,
then briefly explained his view of the situa-
ton, which was that after the usual for
raltties had been gone through writ
should be issued for new election for the
seat in the house of commons occupied by
the Earl of Selborne.
This launched a heated discussion, in
which Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, member
for West Birmingham, and George N. Cur
zon, member for the Southport division of
Lancashire, took part. Finally, the chan
ceIlor of the exchequer consented to move
to refer the question to a special commit
tee. Mr. Courtney. member for the Bod
min division of Cornwall, threatened to
move the adjournment of the house.
Sir William said he thought that the
Earl of Selbcrne was being badly advised,
and therefore he would move to issue a
writ for an election in West Edinburgh and
thus end the whole thing. Later, however,
the chancellor of the exchequer was per-
suaded to withdraw his motion, and the
subject was dropped.
The friends of the Earl of Selborne say
that if the special committee decides
against him he will seek reelection.
The London Times supports the Earl of
Selborne's action, but the st. James Ga
zette seems to be frightened at the possible
| outcome of the project and says: IF he
| succeeds there will be a demand for a gen.
eral settlement and recasting Of the house
of lords with the introduction in some
| form or other of an elective element

"Whirlwind.'' the head of the Cheyenne
Indians, is dead. He dropped dead on
hearing the news of his favorite grand
child's death. He was probably the wisest
and bravest Indian chief of recent years
in fact, of the century. His phenomenal
speed in striking the enemy at different and
widely separated places in quick succession
was what gave him the name of Whirl-
wind. He came from royal stock on both
sides. his uncle on the mothers side being
Black Kettle, whom Custer killed at the
Wachita fight His death will create quit
change in the policy of the Cheyenne
tribe, and from now on the young men
will govern.

Free Coinage.
Following upon the lecture of ex-Con-
gresham Bland at Denver the following
editorial, published in the Denver Times
(republican) last night, attracted considera-
BILE attention:
Senator Henry NJ. Teller sounded the
keynote for the next national campaign in
Colorado in his short speech at the Bland
silver meeting last Saturday night. 1t was
not so much a special war cry to republi-
cans, however, as a general warning to
members Of all parties to rally round the
one flag under which there is hope for the
return of national prosperity.
when Senator Teller announced that he
had cast his last vote for any presidential
candidate who was opposed to free silver
or lukewarm In its interests he did it with
the knowledge that the republican party
of Colorado stood as one man at his back.
"It is free coinage or disruption for the
national republican party in 1896. Which
will you choose2"

Postmaster General Wilson yesterday de-
MED the privileges of the mails to Mrs F.
4. Warner of Jacksonville, Fla, for con-
ductiug n fraudulent business. Mfrs. Warner
adopted uovelmethod by which she reaped
considerable profit.
She advertised i'll newspapers throughout
the country glowing descriptions of flow
crs, shells, etc, to be obtaiued in Florida
during the winter months, and stated that
upon receipt of a certain amount in postage
stamps she would send these articles. She
failed to keep her part of the contract.
The postmaster at Jacksonville reported
to the department that her mail averaged
a thousand letters day, each containing
probably from ten to twenty-five cents III

denied the privileges of the mails, but upon
the promise to discontinue this character
of business the fraud order was revoked.

August Is, 1906. Until decade ago
he was the only mem Der of the Ameri-

wide fame came during the great
ecumenical council of 1869, when, with
only one ally, he kept at bay the other
Catholic theologians Of the world on
the doctrine OF papal infallibility.
Though he acquiesced when the doc
trine was promulgated, he had lost
prestige by this course at the papal
court The aged metropolitan never
regarded his coadjuter archbishop, as
anything but an interloper, and Arch
bishop Kain's lot has not been a pleas
ant one since he took up his abode at

CLEVELAND CRITICISED.
Governor Altgeld Charges tho Admins
tration With Bad Faith.


SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Dec 10. Governor
Altgeld expressed his opinion of the
PRESIDENTS message on the Venezuelan
question in the following language:
Behind the ponderous pretense of
this message several remarkable
things are conspicuous, which will
give comfort and much satisfaction to
the English. First, when carefully
analyzed, the message is found to be a
loud cry to Congress to help the Ad-
ministration let go of the tigers tail,
and ;il it shows clearly that the Admins
tratlon is looking around for hole in
the fence to creep through in order to
get out of the field in which it has
been doing some grunting and a little
roofing. And it also shows that either
we have the most incompetent State

THE MESSAGE APPROVED.

Created Great Sensation in the City of
Washington. t
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. The message
of President Cleveland to Congress
transmitting the correspondence be-
tween Secretary Olney and Lord Sails
bury relative to the Venezuelan
boundary dispute created a real sensa-
ton in Washington. Nowhere was
there voice lifted in dissent from the
doctrine SO firmly laid down by the
President, but on the contrary there
was an outburst of patriotic feeling
that must have been highly gratifying &
to the chief executive. s $,
On the streets, the message was dis
cussed and old veterans Of the late
war talked esultingly of what they
We're prepared again to undertake at
the call Of their country. q
In the great hall Of the pension
building, the employees gathered and
sang with great gusto the '.Star
spangled Banner" and My Country,
'Tis Of Thee.'' ,... s..I8 90
At the White House messages poured
in from every quarter of the country,
congratulating the President upon his
message. They came from men of all
parties and station
The matter, Of course, was of the
greatest interest in diplomatic circles,
and the general impression. on sober
second considera ton of the notes, was
that the matter has not reached a
stage where war is imminent, and
that the hint Of Great Britain's pur-
pose to reopen negotiations with Ven
ezuela, looking to settlement of the
dispute between themselves, perhaps
may be regarded as the Indication of
how the whole matter will end.
Minister Andrade of Venezuela
secured copy Of the message early in
the day, and cabled it, by way of
Cuba and Hayti, to his government.
The time OF transmission is eight
hours, and it is felt that its reception
at Caracas will be the signal for an
enthusiastic demonstration. Mr.. An
drade's satisfaction was almost be-
yond the power of expression. ''The
message is superb, he said with much
enthusiasm. 1t is even surprise to
me in it's vigor, in the nobility of the
sentiments expressed, and in the mas
terly exposition Of the Monroe doc
trine. There can be no doubt or mis-
'COuSClu uCblOu VI 1GS 1ucduluS. In nv
country it can not but arouse the
keenest appreciation on the part of
the government and the people for
this powerful expression of friendship
from strong country in behalf of
comparatively weak one. y
Mr. Andrade was asked what the
next step of Venezuela would be.
''There. is nothing further FOR us to
do. We have announced our policy,
and in that we have the cooperation
and support of the United States. We
are little more than spectators now. :"
'sIs the plan of a commission to
investigate the question and fix the
line feasible?" the minister was asked.
Perfectly so,' he replied. ''The
evidence can readily be furnished, so
far as Venezuela is concerned 1t will
be laborious work, as the documents
and maps are very voluminous, and
from many sources, including those of
Holland, Spain and othc.' countries, as
well as those of Venezuela
