Kentucky Republicans Yet Too
Dazed to Decide on Another
Candidate.
BLACKBURN RETAINS HIS VOTE
plications in the Prolonged Contest
Increased by the Springing of
the Silver Pledge.

FRANKFORT, KY, Feb. 29.-The sem
sation of the day in the Legislature was
the withdrawal of DR.. Hunter. 1t came
in the form of letter from the Republi-
can nominee addressed to the Republican
members, and Withdrawing from the con-
test. The letter was read by Representa-
tive Lyons OF Newport.
In his letter of withdrawal DR.. Hunter
deprecated the unfortunate complication
with which he and his party had been
hampered during the long contest, but re-
turned his grateful acknowledgment to
those.who had stood by him with so mnch
loyalty.
The withdrawal took even the majority
of the Republicans by surprise, and it is
evidently the result of yesterdays unfor-
tunate development on the money ques-
ton. =
The Republicans were somewhat dazed
and did not unite on any candidate. c. F.
Burnam, John W. Lewis, Judge Holt,
Auditor Stone, Senators Bennett and
Deboe and a dozen other Republicans
were compllmented with votes. The vote
as announced gave Blackburn 81, and the
rest were divided among the Republican
and Democratic favorite sons. A motion
for another ballot was defeated.

WAS WORN BY LINCOLN.
Lively Squabble Over the Pos.
session of a Battered
White Stovepipe.
After Much Opposition the Relic Was
Taken From Museum by
the Constable.

WASHINGTON, DC, Feb. GA white
stovepipe, somewhat worn and soiled, but
valuable as having once been worn by
President Lincoln, was the subject OF con-
tention in a replevin suit this morning.
Gath's "entailed hat" never aroused
more com bativeness in disposition of man
than does this relic of the martyred Presi-
dent, for not only was it the subject Of a
suit, but it came near leading to violent ac-
tion on the part of its possessor, less Osborn
II. Oldroyd, who maintains Lincoln relic
collection on Tenth street, where the VIC
tim of Booth breathed his last. 1t is not
certain whether this particular hat was
worn by the President the night that he
was assassinated, or whether it was one OF
his old head coverings.
The hat in question was once the prop
erty of DR.. Phineas D. Gurney, to whom
it was given by Mrs. Lincoln. In some
way it came into the possession of the
Government for use at one OF its expo
sitions 1t was for long time on exhi-
biton in the Patent Office, and then fell
into the possession of Ofdroyd.
He was therefore astonished and panied
when United States Constable Saulter
armed with a writ. from Justice Church,
proceeded to take possession OF the sancti-
fed stovepipe. The constable had one
end of the hat in his hand and Mr.. Old
royd had the other. They pulled until it
was apparent that further pulling would
leave only pieces.
The constable explained, Mr.. Oldroyd
demonstrated and threatened. but finally
succumbed and let Mr.. Saulter have the
hat. Saulter explained that James O.
Adams and Emma A. Adams, executors
of the estate of DR.. Gurley. claimed to be
entitled to possession of the hat, and had
filed suit against Mr.. Oldroyd for its re-
covery. They assert that Dr.. Guriey did
not give it to the Government, but loaned
it with the understanding that when the
Government had finished with the relic it
should be returned to DR.. Gurley.

Cortes on the same day as the arrival of
grave news. He says Spain must proceed
with great prudence and also with great
energy, beca use the action of the United
States Senate was the beginning of serious
complications. He added: II greatly fear
that the remainder of the American repub-

States. God grant the coming elections
may be peaceably conducted"
In Valencia to-day a body of students
paraded the streets carrying banners and
subsequently held meeting at which
resolutions were passed protesting against
the action of the United States Congress.
After the meeting the students made a
demonstration in front of the United
States consulate shouting, "Death to
Uncle Samp' 'tViva Spain i' "Viva the
Spanish armyw and "Viva Spanish
Cuba!'
In an interview Prime Minister Canovas
del Castillo said he doubted that President
Cleveland would approve recognition of
the Cuban insurgents as belligerents, but
if he should be compelled to indorse the
action of Congress it would not provoke
an international conflict nor interrupt the
friendly relations existing between Spain
and the United States. The recognition
of the rebels as belii6erents would bind
the United States to greater neutrality.
The Correspondence says that the recog-
milton of the Cuban rebels by the Ameri-
can Government is an event of graver
import to Spain than any which has oc-
Cured for years.
Ell Liberal denounces the recognition of
the belligerent rights of the rebels as un-
just and opposed to law.
Spain, says Ell Liberal, will resist, even
to the drenching of the soil with Spanish
blood, any determined attempt to affront
by foreign Intervention those who have
never yet submitted to it.

OPPOSED TO FREE SILVER.
Meeting of the Sound Money Democrats
of Missouri,

Meeting OF the S0Hnd-M Money Democrats
of Missouri.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Feb. 29.-About 800
prominent Democrats. representing the
sound-money faction of the party
throughout Missouri, met here to-day for
a conference on the course to be pursued
in the coming campaign. Ex-Attorney-
General Daniel H. Mcintyre of Caliph,
Mo-, was elected chairman and DR.. o. l..
Jewett of Shelby was appointed secretary.
Ex-Governor Francis was one of the
speakers.
A report was adopted denouncing the
attempt of the free silver advocates to
commit the Democratic party in this and
other States to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, re-
gardess of the commercial value of the
two metals and regardless Of the action of
other commercial nations of the world.
The report also says:
The free coinage of silver at ratio
above its market value is but another
phase of that paternalism and favor to the
few at the expense of the many against
which the Democratic party has always
struggled. To fix by law a value upon sill
yer which it does not command i'll the
open market is to do for the silver barons
of the Rocky Mountains what has so long,
under the special guise of protection to
home industries, been done for the iron
barons of the Alleghenys."
