BAYARD WILL QUIT.
If House Passes the Censure Vote-Hs
Will Probably Have an OPP portunity.

Washington, February 3.-The United
Press learns that Hon. Thomas f. Bayard,
United States ambassador to England
has authorized President Cleveland to
announce his resignation in the event
of a vote passing. the House of Represen
tatiyes censuring him for his utterances
in his speeches in Edinburgh and else
where in Great Britain.
The despatch containing the announce
ment that Ambassador Bayard will re.
esgn if the resolutions of censure are
adopted created today something of a
sensation among the members of the
House.
By the Republicans generally Mr..
Bayard's announcement was regarded
as threat and some of those who were
spoken with were disposed to resent it.
Mr.. Barrett of Massachusetts who IN
said: ''This is no surprise to me.
have been positive from the beginning
that affirmative action of censure could
result in 40 other ISSUE Mr. Bayard
could not hold up his head in England
longer as ambassador after such vote.
If he thinks to gain symathy in the
House by this announcement, he is mis-
taken. The resolution will pass the
House, and every Republican will vote for
it. A great majority of the Democrats
do not conceal their dislike for him."
Nothing authoritative can be learned
here concerning Ambassador Bayard' 8
reported conditional tender of his resig-
nation to President Cleveland. ::

Serious thought seems to be entertained
in Wyoming of running a woman for
governor this year, or at least of pacing
her name before the convention. The
woman is Miss Estelle Reel, the state
superintendent of education. She has
conducted the affairs of her important
department with great skill, tact and
business ability, and has won favor with
people of all parties. Before smiling al
this suggestion 1t is worth recalling that
Wyoming women have full suffrage, and
vote for all officers, including presidential
electors. Miss Reel also belongs to the
dominant political party.
