CHICAGO, Feb. ga special to tl1s
Record from Washington says:
The remarkable speech of Mr.. Carter
in the senate, taken in connection with
that of Secretary Carlisle at the Man
haitian club in New York few days
ago, has started a good deal of talk
about the reorganization of the old po-
liticaI parties and a division of the
people on new lines. Both the Repub-
licans and the Democrats seem hope
lessly divided upon the same issue, and
that the most important before the
American people today.
The parties are united upon every
other question. More than half the
Democrats in congress declare that
they will not support the candidate to-
be nominated at Chicago
UNLESS HE PLEDGES HIMSELF
to free coinage. A considerable portion
of the Republicans say the same con-
corning the candidate to be nominated
at ST. Louis. Then why. it is asked,
cannot those in both parties who think
alike get together and name men who
agree with them? A great many peo-
pie believe that if discussion and di-
vision continue much longer, that will
happen.
Secretary Morton suggested such an
expectation upon his part in a news
paper interview not long ago, and
there are those who claim to have
heard the president predict a general
breakup and reorganization before the
end of this administration, but it is
not likely that there viii be any bolt
ing from either party until after the
national conventions are held and the
platforms are adopted,
THE REPUBLICAN LEADERS
do not expect any bolt. Both Mr.. Tel
Ter and Mr. Garter, who announced
the terms of the silver senators, declare
that they will not leave the Republi-
can party, and that they cannot be
driven out, no matter who is NOM
mated.
~ am a Republican and I always
expect to be a Republican, said Mr..
Teller. 81 am just as good a Repub-
lican as John Sherman or George T.
HOar. and there is just as much proba-
bility of their leaving the party as
there is of my leaving it. ] have said
that 1 will not support the Republican
candidate for the presidency unless We
can make some satisfactory arrange
ment on
THE SILVER QUESTION.
I think that arrangement can be
made, but if it is found impossible. I
win still continue to be a Republican.
[ do not intend to vote the Democratic
ticket, no matter who is nominated on
either side"
Senator Carter says: I'VE are going
to get together before the st. Louis
convention. The silver men in the
west are not going to bolt the Repub-
lican party. There are many other is
sues upon which we all agree. and
they would hold us together, no matter
how much we might differ on the
money question. Nevertheless, we
western fellows intend to have some
thing to say about the management
and the policy Of the party We don't
propose to let New England and New
York lead us around by the nose"

NEOSHO, Mo, Feb. 2S.-The news of
the bank robbery at Wichita Falls.
Tex, in which Elmer Lewis. formerly
of this place, was implicated, and
for which he was lynched. has just
reached this city. Lewis was a son of
James Lewis, and had always lived
here until about a, year ago, when he
went to the territory. Later he re-
turned and left last fall taking with
him his cousin, Miss Lulu Hunter. He
was never known to be engaged in
laWlessness to any consequence, but
always wanted to convey the idea of
being bad man, and the news caused
no great surprise.
His father is master mechanic in the
Neosho foundry at this place, and for a
number of years has been leading a
quiet life, although he was implicated
in a highway robbery in this-.county a
number of years ago. for which he
served a sentence in the penitentiary.
The authorities Of Wichita Falls have
been authorized by the father to give
him decent burial. stating that he
would pay all expenses. Nothing is
known of the whereabouts of the
young woman he took from here with
him.

The captain and crew submitted quiet

Chief Mate Pridehard said: eve left

charge of a Spanish pilot. At o'clock
Sunday afternoon we had reached

HE LOOKED FOR TT.

NEW YORK, Feb 2S--Mr. Warner
Miller of the Nicaragua Canal Con-
struction company said last night that
he has been expecting for some time
a general uprising in Central America
Such an uprising, however" he add
ed. would not affect the Nicaragua
canal in the United States. The United
States government has always afforded
us ample protection and all our grants
and concessions have been given regu-
larly by acts of congress, so that we
have nothing to fear from any present
overturning.
No information has yet been re-
ceived at the Nicaraguan consulate in
this city indicating that the revolution
is likely to spread over all Central
America. but such state of affairs
has been expected.
The next mail from Central America
is expected to bring much important
information from the home govern
ment to the various officials here.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 28.-The
Rev. DIR. Brown. after two months 81
lence. has given his defense to the pub
lic The story is the most startling
which has yet been told in the scan
dal. It was related as a confession to
the ecclesiastical court last night by
Miss Martha Overman, who confessed
herself blackmailer.
Miss Overmans manner was strik-
ing. She spoke so quietly that even
the members of the council We're
forced to draw forward until their
clairs formed a small semi-circle on the
platform. The woman spoke deliber
ately, weaving remarkable story,
logically and clearly. She confessed
that she was a blackmailer and tried
to be a thief. and she gave the infor-
nation with a smile.
She confessed that she plotted the
destruction Of the man whose hospl-
tally she now enjoys. She declared
that to save herself from work and the
possible hardships of poverty she con-
spired with Mrs Mary a. Davidson to
ruin the character of the Rev Dr.
Brown and to blacken her own. She
asserted that she approached the rep
reSentatives of a morning newspaper
with a hope of tempting them TO
blackmail tht accused pastor. She
drew her recital to a dramatic climax
by asserting. with a smile which swept
her face, that she wrote the letters
which picture her own moral and ply
steal ruin and place the cause of her
deep distress at the door of the Rev.
DR.. Brown. Asserting all this she de-
MED that there had ever been the
slightest improperly in her relations
with the man against whom she plot
ted so sllreWdly.

living witnesses who have just arrived

the greatest triumph the CubanS ever

and his horse is now in the possession
of Quintan Bandera. In their fight
many Spaniards threw themselves into
the river. The Spaniards attacked a
small detachment of scouts who soon

short fight the federal machete charge

Spaniards beneath their terrific on
