ALL RIGHT IN IDAHO.
The Democrats and Populists Complete
Their Fusion Bargain

The Democrats and Populists Complete
Their Fusion Bargain.
Boise, Idaho, August 21.-At 6 O'Clock
this evening the Democratic and Populist
conventions had not completed their
work, the Populists having -made very
little progress during the day. The ar
rangement respecting the United States
Senator does not please the Populists and
they have spent the entire day trying to
get it Strengthened, the last demand being
that the Democrats shall agree to sup
port man selected by the Populist legis-
lative caucus. The Populists did moth
ing more than to adopt their platform.
1t is devoted entirely to State matters
One plank says:
I'VE heartily endorse the action of the
national Peoples party in convention at
ST. LOUIS
Another plank of general interest is:
Believing in equal rights to all and
special privileges to none, we favor the
adoption of the pending woman suffrage
amendment to the constitution"
The Democratic convention has gone
ahead faster. 1t has adopted platform
and nominated r. p. Quarles, of Salmon,
for supreme judge, and Frank Stuenen-
berg, of Caldwell, for governor. The
platform says in part:
Representatives of the party in Idaho
in convention renew their fidelity to the
principles of the Democratic party as for
mulated by Jefferson and reaffirmed in
the platform adopted by the representa-
tives of our party in the Chicago conven-
ton of 1896. We ratify and confirm the
nominations made at Chicago and pledge
ourselves to use every honorable effort to
secure the election of William J. Bryan
and Arthur Sewall as President and Vice.
President of the United States. We
recommend to the favorable considera-
ton of the voters of the State the pro-
posed constitutional amendment granting
equal suffrage believing that this great
question should receive the earnest atten-
tlon of every person as an important fac.
tor of the future welfare of the State
AT the evening session the Democrats
notified the Populists that they would
accede to the last demand. The Populists
at once receded and fusion was closed up.
Nominations are now progressing.

SENATOR BA(0H's OBSERVATIONS
(cor rinued from first page.)

ka promises to have reported at least 100
clubs.
The situation in Idaho continues to
worry the managers at both the Populist
and Democratic headquarters The
fusion effected yesterday by the Demo-
Gratis and Populists, which ignores the
silver Republicans, they believe will re-.
act throughout the West and greatly en-
barrass and hamper their campaign. An
adjournment of the matter, which will
give proper recognition to the silver Re-
publicans, is regarded at both headquar-
ters as of the highest Importance. Just
what the managers are doing cannot be
ascertained, but it is evident that they
are actively engaged in trying to secure
reconsideration of the action of the
committee, which arranged the terms of
the fusion. Some important develop
ments are expected in a few days.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS.
Collection Are Difficult and Credits Are
Closely Scanned

Closely Scanned
New York, August 1-Bradstreet,s
tomorrow will say: General trade
throughout the United States is practi
cally confined TO staple lines. The volume
OF business is no larger. Where orders
have increased in number they are
smaller in size In almost all instances
they are based on nearby requirements.
The feature of the week is the increased
difficulty in making collections and the
higher rates for mercantile discounts.
Credits are being scanned more closely
than heretofore and are granted less
freely
Business in South Carolina is retarded
by drought, and in North Louisiana,
Texas, Southern Arkansas and Missis-
sippl prolonged drought has so inter
fered with business in some sections
that 1T amounts TO a calamity. Some
Northwestern lumber mills have shut
down, owing to low prices and difficulty
in obtaining money, while demand for
wooiens for spring delivery is not yet
sufficient to start up machinery.
More favorable trade advices are receiy-
ed from Baltimore, where business is sat-
isfactory, owing to better Southern pur-
chases, based on the early cotton crop
Among Southern cities, Atlanta is con
spicuous for reporting better trade.
AT Chicago there is more hopeful feel.
ing among dealers in dry goods, clothing
and shoes, in which sales have increased
Southern and Southwestern buyers have
appeared in st. Louis and are buying
with material freedom for fall wants
Kansas City reports good sales in all
lines, and that rains have assured large
crops OF corn and fruit to Kansas.

FOUR RATTLERs IN HER ROOM
The Thrilling Experience of Woman
Near Salem

The Thrilling Experience of Woman
Near Salem.
One night last week during the alb
sence of her husand, Mrs n. b. Hart
man, who lives near Cascade Spring, lust
north of Salem, had an experience with
r2tt!esnakes that merits for her the title
OF n brave woman. The night was warm
and she had retired, leaving the door
agar Beside her bed slept young child
IN lts GRID. The child was restless, and
about midnight turned over and started
the crib in motion, which awoke Mrs.
Hartma4, and rs she awoke she heard a
rafting noise that she could not mis-
take. 1t was the warning sound of the
dreaded rattlesnake. She leaned from
her bed and quickly turned up her lamp,
when she was Mortified to see all coiled
up together on the floor, and near the
chlld's crib, four immense rattle snakes
frightened, but determined, she ran to
the door, just outside of which was n
noe, with which she had only the evening
before Killed large moccasin. Grabbing
the hoe, she quickly dispatched all four
OF the snakes by chopping their heads off
Ii was bloody battle, but the work was
soon done, and we'll done When it was
over, it was found that the four snakes
had fifty rattles, indicating n combined
age of fifty years
The next morning Mrs. Hartman
skinned the reptiles herself, and the
SKINS and rattles are now at the Times
Register Office, where they can be seen by
any one who cares to view them. They
Will be tanned and made into belts, neck
ties, etc and sent to New York to Mrs.
Hartman's sister, through whom they
are readily sold for as much as SIS a piece.
MIR. Hartman is we'll known locally as
snake charmer, and handles the rep
tiles fearlessly. He says had he been at
home he would have captured the rattlers
alive, tied them to the chair posts until
next morning, and tanned them for ex-
hibition. He also says that one of the
snakes was female and the others
males, and that the males had evidently
followed the "fair rather into the
