WASHINGTON. n. c., March 20
The Herald correspondent read a
dispatch from Salt Lake to Arthur
Brown tonight, stating that General
Warner had said: utah might as
well have a gold senator as a silver
senator always voting with gold sena-
tors
Mr.. Brown replied that he had moth
ing to say about Warner, who had no
right TO represent him as a gold sena-
tor Mr.. Brown said he had always
voted for free silver and always eX-
pected to. He said he was, however,
for protection. He was always ready
TO vote for free silver coinage or pro-
lection, or both separately or together
when the propositions come up He
said he did not think it good policy at
this time for the free coinage advo-
Gates to antagonize the policy of the
protective tariff. which seems to be
very popular just now. II hear that
Warner is a Democrat. Naturally he
wants to break up the Republican par
ty by delaying every effort in behalf of
tariff"

SCORED BUTLER.
Colonel Livermore Talks of the Cen
erals Exploits.


BOSTON. March 25-General But
ler's military career was severely
scored today when the bill providing
for the erection OF an equestrian, or
military statue of Butler came up be.
fore the committee on ways apdsaneans
at the state house The remonstrances
were called upon today and Colonel
Thomas L.. Livermore spoke. He de-
clared Buffers exploits were dwarfed
by thousands of acts performed by
other Massachusetts, men. Butler did
not lead the regiment through Balti-
more-he was in Philadelphia. He did
not seize Annapolis. From April 1861,
to May, 1864, General Butler never di-
rected the movements of a man in the
lace Of the enemy. After that he di-
rected the army in one battle, Drury' S
Bluff, and then he was compelled to
retire. The reason he never again at
tempted to direct troops was because
he saw he was not fit to do it. Colo
mel Livermore also said the idea of
commemorative exploits of this sort
by equestrian statues borders on the
ridiculous A thousand men in the
army would have been just as good
military commanders at New Orleans
and as efficient provost marshal at
New York Among the other remon-
strants were j. Malcolm Forbes, Cen
eral Francis Walker, John C. Ropes,
Major Henry Higginson and Moorfield

ELEPHANT GYPSY CREATES
SENSATION IN CHICAGO.
Picks Up Her Keeper in Her Trunk
and Dashes Him Violently Against
the Doors of "A She'd

CHICAGO, March "a crazed ele-
plant, which had killed her keeper and
escaped from her quarters, charged I'D
and down the streets and alleys of the
! West Side TINS afternoon, and although
escorted in her wanderings by a small
army of policemen, was not captured un-
til late tonight. The animal was the big
elephant Gypsy. attached to a travelling
circus, and Frank Scott, whom she killed
this afternoon. had charge of her for
number of years. About l O'clock he
went into the stall where the big beast
was confined and cast her loose He Ven
drove her into the alley and proceeded to
give her the daily exercise. Scott mounted
to Gypsy's head and rode her around
for few minutes. finally stopping her
nearly in front of the barn.
Reaching over in front, Scott damned
the iron hook. with which he controlled
the big beast, into her flesh just above
the right eye. Then he slid down her fore
head to the ground.
Scarcely had his feet touched the
ground when Gypsy raised her trunk and
knocked Scott TO the ground With a
scream

The force with which he was cast
against the doors broke them down and
Scott landed on the ground inside,
crushed and broken.

Hearing the noise from inside the shed
Gypsy reached in with her trunk after
her keeper, who made all the effort his
injured condition would allow. to get out
! of her reach. He continued to cry for
aid, and still Gypsy tried TO get at him.
Mrs. Fred Irwin, who lives in Jackson
boulevard, ran out into the alley and
tried to reach the doors of the barn, in
order to summon help. But her move
merits were observed by Gypsy, and, with
scream, the elephant ran for Mrs. Ir-
| win. She turned for her own gate and
reached ii barely in time to avoid the
big brute as she Numbered into the alley
