salt Lake Jan. 3.ANiembers OF the logis-
lature have been arriving in the city all
day. Considerable activity is already no
ticed along the skirmish line OF the sena-
torial contest. Several aspirants for sem
at0rial honors have established their head
quarters and are actively at work. The
headquarters OF Frank J. Cannon have
been located in the Tempieton hotel. un-
der the management of Ben Rich. From
that standpoint it is claimed that Cannon
has opened headquarters in the Cullen
hotel Mr. Bennett says ne Is willing TO
take his chances in the caucus. and be-
lieves he has more than an even chance.
Col. Isaac Trumbo has his headquarters in
the Atlas block. and Charles Crane is do
ing the active work in his behalf. =. G.
Goodwin. who rs prominently mentioned
for one OF the senatorships has not taken
the aggressive position which other candi-
dates are showing. but his friends rely
upon his general strength among the
members As being sufficient 10 make him
a winning candidate. Arthur Brown and
others nave been mentioned as being in
the race. but so far they have assumed
nothing more than a passive attitude.
The Republicans viii hold a caucus to-
morrow morning. but IL Is understood 10
be only for the purpose Of arranging de-
tails OF Organization. During the past
two weeks the Material fight seems 10
have expanded rather than contracted. II
is now generally agreed that there are at
least four and POSSIBLY five candidates in
the field. all having certain elements OF
strength Some doubt IS expressed as 10
whether the Republicans can reach an
agreement in caucus. The Democratic
vote may be an important factor in the
result They viii no doubt cast a comph-
mentary vote for Thatcher and Kawiius.
but after that 1t is possible they may take
some action that will develop candidates
not heretofore mentioned.

THEODORE DURRANT.
His Case on Appeal Now Before the
Supreme Court.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2S-The
case of Theodore Durrant, convicted of
numbering Blanche Lamont, went to
the Supreme Court to-day. The whole
of the long transcript on appeal, num-
bering 2,409 pages bound in three vol
umes, has been completed and signed
by the trial Judge and is now ready for
presentation before the Supreme Court
Argument for a certificate of proba-
bic cause win probably be heard to-
morrow before Chief Justice Beatty in
chambers. This certificate is always
granted when there is any legal cause
susceptible of argument. Probable
cause in an appeal case means that the
appeal was not vexatious, but that
cause for 1t was probable. There is not
much doubt that the certificate of
probable cause will be granted in this
case, and then the appeal will pro-
ceed smoothly.

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.
Reports as Sent to the u. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture.

CHICAGO, July 2S-Reports to the
United States Department of Agricult-
ure Weather Bureau as to the crops
throughout the country and the effect
OF the weather on the growth, cultiya-
ton and harvest of same were to-day
made by the officials. The reports re-
ceived at Chicago were as follows:
In the States of the central valleys
and on the Atlantic and East Gulf Coasts
the week has been very favorable for
all growing crops, but excessive rain
storms have retarded farm work, espe-
cially threshing. and caused much in
jury to grain in shock. In Kansas much
CT the crop is now made and in Ne
braska it is in unusually fine condi-
tion. Spring wheat has experienced ia
vorable weather conditions in South
Dakota, and the early sown has some
what improved in North Dakota. but
in that State late sown did not head
and is being plowed under Spring
wheat harvest will begin in Minnesota
about August 1st.
Illinois-The week has been unfavor-
able for work The excessive rainfall
has caused injury to wheat, oats and
rye in shock, producing sprouting, mold
anu Iclllus, the largest part OIL the
crop, however, being in stack previous
to the rain. Corn, except on lowlands.
is doing finely; broom corn, second crop
clover, pastures, late potatoes and gar
dens have been much benefited by the
rains.
South Dakota-Fair to heavy showers
over most sections and generally cooler
weather much improved unripe grain
and later crops. Corn greatly benefited
and promises well. Oats harvest ad-
vanced; wheat harvest becoming gem
eral, and good crops are reported
ebraska-Small grain harvest about
completed and threshing in progress
Good rains have been general and very
beneficial to corn, which is now in un-
usually fine condition.
kanSas-Seven to eight inches of rain
in southeast counties and ample rains
over rest of State, except extreme north
west and southwest, favorable to grow
ing crops, but unfavorable to grain in
shocks or stacks. Much of the corn
crop is now made with the rest very
promising.
Iowa - Excessive rainfall, with cool
and cloudy weather, delayed harvest
and caused increased damage to oats
and wheat in shock. Corn, grass and
other growing crops have been much
improved.

CHAIRMAN LANE.
Says Bryan and Sewall Will Carry
California.

CHICAGO, July 2S.-A special from
Lincoln, Neb., says: Charles s. Lane,
Chairman of the Silver Party's Ma
tional Committee, had a long talk to-
day with Mr.. Bryan. Tonight he said
after stating he was not speaking for
Mr.. Bryan:
Mr.. Bryan did not say SO, but I
haven't the slightest doubt in the world
that he will accept the Populist nomin-
alton, or rather that he will not refuse
the nomination. l am pretty sure Mr..
Watson will persist in his determination
to remain on the tiket, and / cannot see
that it makes any difference what he de
cides to do. The Populists have gem
orally decided to vote for Bryan and Sc
wall, and they will go ahead ON this
line regardless of Mr.. Watson.
Eyes, / think the Populists in the
South will take UP Mr.. Sewall in pref
erence to Watson. In California the
Populists and the Silver party will vote
for Bryan and Sewall, and what I want
to say is that we will carry California.
Washington Oregon and Nevada. The
talk about Sewall getting off the ticket
is absurd. He will remain the candi-
date for Vice-President, and before we
go very far you will see that all the Sill
Yer people will be supporting him.

TEXAS AND IOWA DEMOCRATS.
rIany of Them Favor a SOund-r1Oney
Convention.

CHICAGO, July 2S.-A letter was re-
ceived to-day at National Sound Money
Democratic headquarters from Judge
Allen Blacker of Ell Paso, Texas, IN
which he said:
II have made thorough canvass of
this section of the State and am con-
vinced that the active Democrats, as
well as those who have convictions, are
earnestly in favor of third ticket, and
are willing to declare for it. I believe
the sound money men of Texas August
next will select delegates to attend the
National Convention. Among the
masses are many changes from free sill
yer to sound money"
T. NJ. Martin of Marshalltown, Ia,
telegraphed that he would organize the
State for sound money in few days. A
meeting of the State Committee will be
held next Friday or Saturday to decide
the question of calling a State conven-
ton 1t is probable that State and

PENDANTS He began by pointing out
that none of the facts in the case
against the prisoners had been contest
ed, and said there was no doubt in re-
gard to their having taken part in or
abetted the proceedings at Pitsani and
Mafeking, where the invading forces
were mustered preparatory to entering
the Transvaal. 1t was entirely unim-
portant, in the opinion of Lord Russell,
whether the Foreign Enlistment Act
had been proclaimed at theplaces named
in 1889. There was no doubt that the
expedition was of military character.
and whether it was aimed to overthrow
the Transvaal Government or ito force

equally an expedition against a friend
