mean?
The gold of the country has

neither gold coin nor gold certifi-

In New Orleans. 1t is cornered
and withdrawn from circulation, to
the end that its value may be in
creased and that the government
may be forced to issue bonds to

Is this, then, the situation to
which the republican party. is
pledged? Does the success CT
Mckinley mean that the power cf
the government is to be used to

We have an "existipg gold

KANSAS RECEIVER OF THE SANTA FE
Gets some Plain Orders From the
Court.

Topeka, Kan, Nov. 6.-The bond of
Charles r. johnson. who has been APP
pointed receiver of the Atchison, Topeka
&C. Santa Fe railway property in Kansas,
has been fixed at $1,000. The court APP
pointing the receiver orders him to enter
into an agreement with the officials of the
railroad company to operate Its lines
within FIVE days. and II at the expiration
of that time the company has failed to
enter into such an agreement, the re-
ceiver is directed to take charge of the
rolling stock and operate the line. 1t is
estimated that the company owns $780,
100000 worth of property in Kansas, and
the suit covers the entire main line,
which owns all the real estate. 1t is I'M
derstood that the companys first move
will be to ask that the case be trans
ferred to the United States court.
General Solicitor A. A. Hurd of the
Santa Fe in Kansas refuses at present to
talk about the case. This is the first
case ever filed in Kansas under the alien
land law, and it's result will be watched
with great interest by capitalists and big
corporations. Receiver Johnson is the re-
publican state senator-elect of Jefferson
and Douglas counties, and prominent
business man Of Oskaloosa. Judge Louis
Myers. who was appointed receiver, was
elected judge four years ago on the dem
ocratic-populist fusion ticket, and re-
elected last Tuesday by the fusionists.
Heretofore he has made no decisions

TWO STATES ARE YET IN DOUBT:

counties and unofficial returns from the
remaining 10 counties give 475 republican
plurality.
Chairman Johnson of the democratic
committee says he is not yet ready to
congratulate Chairman Roberts. He be-
lieves errors have been made against
Bryan in the returns sufficient to turn the
scale in his favor on the official count.

FAVOR DETHRONEMENT OF SULTAN.
Another Semi-OmciaI story From
COnstantinopIe.

Constantinople, Nov. Sit was semi-of-
ficially announced that Great Britain
month ago asked that the powers give
the ambassadors at Constantinople the
authority to draw up scheme for re
forms to be executed by the Turkish gov
eminent, and to decide upon measures
to compel it's execution, in the event of
the sultan's refusal to do so. The powers
were agreeable to the first part of the
proposal, but Russia declined to agree to
confer upon the ambassadors the power
to summon warships to the Bosphorus
and France suggested the addition of
Russian delegate to the administration
of the caisse of the public debt, and to
increase it's powers to the extent of maxi
ing it a permanent international commits
sion to control Turkish affairs.
1t is asserted that in case of resist
ance to their wishes, the powers favor
the dethronement of the sultan.

Mr.. DUBOIS DEFEATED IN IDAHO.
No Longer Any Doubt in Regard to
the Result.

Boise, Idaho, Nov. 6.-Thera no longer
seems any doubt that Dubois stands no
chance for reelection to- the United
States senate. Further returns from sew
eral' close counties show that his ticket

cratic party now have A members out OF
70, and Custer and Washington counties
are still In doubt. Dubois has only 10

estimated majority, and 1t viii probably
reach 1900, or more than 80 per cent Of
the total vote.

A host Of populists are pressing their
candidacy for United States senator. Mr..
Clagett, who contested Mr.. Dubois seat;

ia: Boyce, Federation of Labor man, who
until recently was confined In the Lead
Vile Jail. and Ruick, who was distin-
suished In the Legislature by having

a fellow senator, are all talked of.
The only interest left in the result OF
Tuesdays vote Is as to the. fate Of The
woman suffrage amendment Undoubted-
ly more ballots have been marked yes
than no, but many were left blank. The
constitution says that amendments shall
receive majority of electors voting,
and 1t is probable that 1t will not 20

court decides what is meant by major

SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES.
Republicans Fail to Secure GOOD
working Majority

washington, Nov. 6.-ghe next senate
1t is believed, will stand: Republicans
A; democrats, 80; populists and independ-
ents, 10. This table takes all states out
of the doubtful column, placing Kentucky
and North Carolina in the republican col
umn, as Senator Butler said today
free silver republican would probably De
returned by the fusionists, Delaware IN
the democratic column and Kansas ana
South Dakota in the independent and pop
ulist column. This will prevent the re-
publicans from taking control OF the
senate, unless some of those who bolteo
the republican platform at st. Louis
should return. 1t Is difficult to estimate
the exact standing Of the next senate on
the money question, owing to the new
alignment of parties in the recent cam
paign. Men who have been pronounced
silver men have been supporting the re-
publican platform and candidates, and
pronounced gold men have supported the
democratic platform and candidates.
Senators Perkins of California, VOL
colt of Colorado, Shoup of Idaho, carter
of Montana, Mitchell of Oregon, wilson
of Washington and Clark and Warren OF
Wyoming have all voted for and support
| ed silver legislation, and what course
| they will now take in the senate is alto
| gether problematical. Among the demo-
Gratis, Senator German of Maryland,
| Smith of New Jersey, Murphy OF New
| York, Faulkner of West Virginia and
| Mitchell of Wisconsin have all voted
| against silver, and yet supported the
democratic party in this campaign.
AS no free coinage bill possibly could
| pass the house, this fact would influence
| voting in the senate on the silver ques-
ton, especially in the shape of rider to
| "a tariff bill. The probability is that on a
free coinage amendment to a tariff bill all
of the A republicans would vote against
it, and possibly some democrats, such as
Gallery of Louisiana, Gray of Delaware
and Lindsay of Kentucky who bolted the
Chicago platform, and perhaps even some
of those who supported Mr.. Bryan during
the campaign. 1t also is not unlikely that
| some of the republican senators who bolt
ed the republican platform might take a
position which would permit a tariff bill
IN which their constituents are largely
interested, such as wool, lumber and leac
ores, to become a law. Senator Faulkner
democrat, of West Virginia, said today
that the silver men by standing solidl1
with the democrats could prevent tariff
legislation. Senator Butler, on the othe
hand said that he and others of the Pop
ulists would support the right kind Of /
! tariff bill, but not measure like the Nc
Kinley bill. Mr.. Butler wants adequat
. protection on raw materials.

ThrOugh-Returns Slow.

Wallace, Idaho, Nov. 5.-One OF the
doubtful points In Shoshone county was
wardner, where 400 votes were cast, the
last one not being counted until o'clock
this morning. With returns from every
precinct in the north end of the county
1t is certain that Young defeats O'Neil
for state senator by 200 or more. and
Fuller defeats Hammond by over 100. The
Dubois men elect Horn, and the other
two seats in the lower house will be very
close, probably requiring the. official
count to determine.
Returns from outside precincts have
not given the vote on the constitutional
amendments, and nothing will be known
until the official canvass Is made, w---ch
will commence at Murray next Monday.
Wallace tied on woman suffrage, giving
12A votes each way. The amendment to

average of $50. Steunenberg will have a

MRS. CASTLE IN a LONDON PRISON.
Painful Scene When Her Husband
Took Leave.

London, Nov. 6.--The Associated Press
has been informed that Mr.. Castle was
allowed to accompany his wife to the
prison. Upon arriving in the Office she
BECAME violently hysterieal again and
seemed to be totally dazed. She did not
know at all where she was. The usual
formallties were observed without devia-
ton at the prison, no Instructions having
been received by the home Office to treat
Mrs. Castle as special case. The prison
doctor. however, Immediately ordered her
to be removed to the hospital, and detail
ed two nurses to attend her.
There was another painful scene when
the husband came to take leave of his
wife. Mr.. Castle bore up well throughout
the terrible ordeal and devoted himself to
trying to console his wife. promising to
come and take her away as soon as 1t
was possible. The doctor ordered a spe-
| cial diet for Mrs. Castle, and asked to
| have DIR. Balorme, the chief medical at
| tendant at the prison, summoned in the
| morning to take charge of her case. She
| was clad in the hospital garb and was
| given comfortable bed, the nurses in
attendance being specially instructed to
treat her with great care. She became
more calm later in the evening, though
she constantly relapsed into hysterica
outbreaks, crying: why don't some one
take me homer" Where am I?' 81 dom
belong here" "Will nobody help me?"
The prison doctor said: This woman il
not right. This is surely a case for tbs
home office officials"
/, 1t Is thought Mrs. Castle is not likely tt
be released for 10 days, but this is con
jectural The informant from whom thi'
opinion came stated that even the offi2ial
of the prison, who are accustomed to sucl
| scenes were deeply sympathetic.
