Took One Minute.

Especial TO The Herald)
WASHINGTON, D. G. Feb. 4.-The
judicial nominations for Utah We're
confirmed today, as predicted in The
Herald's dispatches.
Senator Hoar, chairman of the
judiciary committee, said to The Her
AIDS correspondent tonight: There
were no charges filed against Mr.
Marshall, or against either OF the three
appointees. We were merely waiting
for the Utah senators to take their
seats, and our committee promptly re-
ported the nominations favorably at
the first opportunity, thereafter, which
was at today's session"
Senator Baker, of Kansas, said that
some time ago he was wired from
Salt Lake Ky attorneys there that
charges against John Marsnall's
professional honor" would be for
warded, but that they had not material
lied. Senator Baker added that from
all that he knew of Mr.. Marshall, and
all that he had heard from those who
knew him best he considered him an
able jurist and an upright man in
every way qualified for the judgeship
1t is understood that in the executive
session of the senate today not one
wcrd was urged against Judge Mar
shall, but all the judicial nominations
for Utah were confirmed in about one
minutes time.

CECIL R. RHODES.
LARGE CROWD GATHERS tn
GREET HIM IN LONDON.
Queen Said to Be Anxious to Re-
stow Peerages Upon Both Rhodes
and jameson.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a special to
the World from London says: Cecil
Rhodes, who was the premier. of Cape
Colony at the time of Jameson's raid
into the Transvaal, is in London. At
his arrival there was as much of
popular ovation at Paddington station
as the Conservatives, or perhaps
frightened managers of the Chartered
South Africa company, would permit.
A large crowd had gathered, but the
Whilom dictator was hurried into a
prosaic four-wheeler and taken away.
Perhaps an interesting fact is that well
dressed ladies predominated in the
crowd on the station platform awaiting
the arrival Of Mr.. Rhodes train.
Arthur Balfour, bachelor, like
Rhodes, by the way, arrived by train
few minutes early and was mfsta-
ken for Rhodes and loudly cheered.
The queen, it is reported, in common
with the vast majority of the ladies of
the kingdom, as well as probably their
husbands, is an earnest advocate Of
the bestowal of peerages upon Rhodes
and Jameson. Lady Warwick, indeed,
has published a letter in the Times
defending them through thick and
thin. Her majesty's earnest advocacy
ACCORDING 10 offclal gossip, explains
much that is otherwise mysterious in
the action of the cabinet Lord Sal
isbury, her loyal and devoted friend,
echoed by his organ, the Times, has not
a word to say against, but everything
by inference in favor of Jameson. The
colonial secretary, Mr.. Chamberlain,
independent, knowing he has been from
the first unwelcome in the cabinet, is
pursuing his chosen course again, ap-
parently undaunted. If he persists in
arranging and securing an impartial
trial of the invaders he may be forced
out of the cabinet. 1t may be added
there is also very hostile feeling in
the Conservative mercantile and in
vestment classes in England against
the South African sudden miliionaires
and their methods For the last year
or so no new five or six per cent en-
terprise has had and chance in the
London market, while the dazzling
prospect of 300 or 400 per cent in South
African mining schemes was attract
ing capital Chamberlain would have
that element behind him as well as the
Conservative Englishmen, who fear
that the imitation of the example set
by these men would be followed by
war.

BOSTON, Feb. 4.-The following let

Four attempts were made to depart

cort duty. On the fifth attempt, De

column of infantry. He was we'll treat

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The be-
lated tariff bill emerged from the
france committee today and made its
appearance in the senate soon after
the session opened. Chairman Morrill,
made the report stating that free sill

the original bill and adding, amid
laughter, the closing phrase of Of

Mr.. Quay made two attempts to have
the bill recommitted to the committee,
with instructions to report back separ-
ate tariff and free silver bills, but was
cut off by parliamentary objections
His resolution for recommitment will
come up, under the rules, tomorrow.
A sharp contest occurred at 2 o'clock

advancing the appropriation bills and
those desiring to take up general legis-

middle channel OF the Colorado river,
and west of the eastern boundary Of

The bill was referred to committee on
territories In explanation Of this bill,
the Utah senator said: There will be
10 objection urged by Arizona people
and for good reasons; the new territory
will add one more county to Utah; the
portion that is to be annexed is valu-
able for its copper mines. There are
many Mormon people living in that re-

They Reconsidered It.

WASHINGTON, Feb 4.-The house
committee on public lands today re-
considered its action of last week in
adopting a bill to carry out the recon-
mendation of President Cleveland's
message that the limitation of five
years for the bringing of suits to annul
titles to patents established by the
act of March, 1891, be repealed
Another bill, embodying the views of
different members of the committee.
and intended to furnish full protection
to purchasers in good faith, drawn by
Mr.. Allen of Utah, was substituted for
the first bill
chairman Lacey will report it to the
house. AS this legislation may affect
the title to sixty millions of acres, it
has been difficult for the committee to
draw satisfactory bill.
THE NEW BILL
provides that suits brought by the
United States to annul patents to lands
enormously issued under a special
grant shall only be brought within five
years from the passage of the act, and
suits to annul patents hereafter issued
must be brough within ten years after
their date. The bill expressly confirms
the titles of bona fide purchasers and
provides that if any party claiming to
De Dona noe purchaser presents his
claim to the secretary of the interior
before the institution of suit to can
eel a patent and his claim is found
valid, the secretary shall request that
suit be brought against the original pat
entee for a sum not less than the min
imum government prices for the lands,
and not more than the amount paid by
the purchasers Another section makes
the courts having jurisdiction over
suits under the act the final authority
on the bona fde purchasers, and pro
vide that claimants who have not sub
mitted their claims to the secretary of
the interior may intervene in suits
begun and have their claims adjudi-
Gated by becoming parties in that way
to the litigation. The bill also provides
that no suit shall be brought to annul
patents when parties have presented
claims to be bona fide purchasers until
the secretary has passed upon their
claims

Especial to The Herald.)
ST. GEORGE, Utah, Feb. 4.-The
committee appointed by Judge Hig-
gins to examine applicants for court
reporter of this district held their ex-
animation this morning and reported
in favor of w. L. Cook, and the court
accordingly gave him the appointment.
Although Cook was the only one who
showed up at the examination, the

minutes lively work taking testimony,
which was read to him by two attor-
neys from a mining case, and which he
read back at them without moments
hesitation. Mr.. Cook has been reporter
for the Second district of Utah terri
tory for ten years, and for the last
three years was also clerk of the court.

ing, with two additional counsel for

BARNARD WAS BAD.
Shortage viii Foot Up to Nearly
$4,000.

$4,000.
ROME, N. Y, Feb. 4.-There was
great excitement among the citizens
when it was learned today from an
authoritative source that the shortage
in the Fort Stanwix National bank
amounts up to the present time to
$4,000 and that the Hon. George Bar
nard who, before his suicide, last Sat
urday, was trusted cashied, ex-mayor
and vestryman of Zion Episcopal
church, would be in debt to the
bank personally nearly $4,000. Bank
Examiner Van Rankin will not yet go
into the details of the banks affairs,
nor will he either affirm or deny any
thing in that connection. A complete
examination has not been made and
the shortage as learned today has been
estimated after partial examination.
One of the directors of the bank told
the Associated Press that he would not
be surprised if the shortage might
reach 100000 and declared Barnard's
personal shortage might reach 800, 900.
Barnard has not taken a vacation for
thirty years and after todays disclos-
ures the reason for this is found in the
belief that he did not desire anyone
but himself to handle his accounts.
