THE BRYAN RATIFICATION.

Those from Laramie who attended
the Bryan ratification meeting are all
home. The Republican learns that the
meeting was really a disappointment
to those who attended. One gentleman
from here who can be relied on to tell
the truth says that there were between
200 and 800 chairs in the hall unoccu-
pied. Teller's speech was not up to the
standard which vas expected. The
aged senator has b IN failing rapidly
lately and the crowd he is training with
now adds to his personal discomfort.
In his address he frankly stated that
he was still a proc, ectionist and believ-
ed that protection was essential to ma
tiOnal prosperity.

A HEALER IN VIRGINIA.
His Works Claimed to Rival Those of
 Schlatter.

PETERSBURG, Va, Jan. 17.-A Richmond special to the Index Appeal says: There is great excitement in lRenrico county over the advent of a faith curist, whose powers are alleged to be even more marvellous than those of Schlatter, the Denver healer. His namo is James Deane, and he halls from Kansas. He is an ordinary look ing man, wears full black beard and clerical garb. At present he is at the home of Henry Wilker, just beyond the city limits of Richmond. All day long the Walker house is packed with people who regard Deane with pro- found superstition and believe him to be the greatest healer of modern times. His performances are identical to those of Schlatter, and some who visited the Walker house today left firmly con- vinced that the man was none other than the Denver miracle worker. A week ago MT. Walker lay abed dying of consumption. Today he walked cheerfully about his room.

FORTY-FIVE YEARS LIN PRISON
Sentence Against Two Mexican Mur- dererS at Trinidad.

TRINIDAD, Colo, Jan. 17-Mean- dro Martinez and Pedro Baca, the two young Mexican desperadoes who plead ed guilty to the murder in the second degree for the killing of Charles Allen at Starkville last July, were this morning each sentenced by Judge Northcutt of the district court to forty five years in the penitentiary. While the sentence is a heavy one in the face of plea of guilty, it gives general satisfaction, as the men, though young, were known to be desperate, and the people of the community are glad to see them out of the way. They were also charged with being instigators of the plot to rob the Horse Shoe club, which resulted in the killing of Police man Solomon. Martinez and Baca are each P years old and have served two terms in the penitentiary for stealing cattle. They said this afternoon that it was their intention to be model con- victs in hopes that pardon would be extended to them before they became old men. When asked why they en- tered plea Of guilty they said that public sentiment was so strong against them they were afraid to trust their case in the hands of a jury.

ENGLAND'S WAR SHIPS.
Destination of the Flying Squadron
 Not Known.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17-A cable. report from Portsmouth, England. whence the English Flying squadron is about to sail, that it's destination may be the Bermudas, cannot be con firmed in any official quarters here. The British squadron already at and about the Bermudas consists of six teen ships. Should the Portsmouth report be true it would increase this squadron to twenty-two ships, or twenty y-eight, including the six tor pedo catchers. It is doubted if Great Britain would send such a powerful. fleet into American waters at this times when their presence almost certainly would be regarded as hostile demon stration certainly not caMed for SO. long as diplomacy has not yet ex-- hausted it's resources in the settlement of the differences between the United States and Great Britain.

A SPECIAL MESSAGE.
President Urges Immediate Legisla-
 tion.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-The pres ident today sent a special message to the house urging the necessity for i'm mediate legislation to extend the limit of time within which suits can be brought by the government to annuE the grants of public lands. He called attention to the numerous complied tions that had arisen between the rail roads as to grants that had overlapped and the necessity for heir adjustment The time in which suits can be brought expires March 31, 1896, and if the time limit were allowed to expire then that portion of the adjustment would be rendered nugatory. The government the president says in conclusion, should not be prevented from going into the courts and fighting wrongs perpetrated by it's agents.
 The message was referred to the committee on public lands. The house then went into committee of the whole for the consideration of the pen sion appropriation bill, under the five minute rule.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-The sen ate committee on foreign relations was in session today. The only question before it was the legislative affirmation of the Monroe doctrine. The discus sion proceeded upon the basis of the resolution Senator Davis had prepared under instructions of the committee meeting held last Saturday. The terms of the resolution are known only to the members of the committee. It has been difficult to so phrase the doc ument as to suit the ideas of all or even majority of the committee.
 The committee adjourned at 12:4O o'clock, after voting to report the Davis resolution with few verbal notifications suggested by the sub committee. It is understood the reso- lution will be presented to the senate Monday.

 Telegrams have been sent from here asking the prompt notification of latest action of the government in the matter be promptly te,egraphed. The greatest indignation is felt amongst MT. Hammonds friends in view of the discrimination shown by the Boer gov ernment in the treatment of American and English prisoners. They say the most prominent of English offenders have been turned over to the custody of the English government which stands in marked contrast to the man ner in which American prisoners are being handled.
