The Mouse Trap.

The entertainment at the opera house
Tuesday night by the Young Peoples s
Society of the a. II. Presbyterian
church was q successful affair, and the
musical part of the programme pleas
ing to the audience.
The curiosity OF the audience, how
ever, or at least those who had not
"thc idea" in their minds Of what it
really was--no cast Of the play being
givcn--was ccntercd on the "Mousc
Trap" This curiosity was relieved
somewhat when the name of William
Dean Howells % the author of the
"Mouse Trap" was mentioned in the an
nouncement after the curtain rose.
Then very soon the trap showed a
we'll laid plan to test the courage
of woman, even II only the idea
of the rodent was present. Chairs, ta-
bles and piano stools served as places
of refuge, and it all was very clcvcrly
performcd-from refuge to rescue,
could scarcely have been better.
The financial results were satisfac-
tory.

ator Chandler stated 1t to be
his belief that there would be
no serious objection from any
source to the Republicans passing
tariff bill. whatever the complexion Of
the committees, and others concurred
in this view. Senator Plat, Of New
York, was the only new Republican
men volunteered any suggestions The
caucus adjourned to meet again Mon
day, when Senator Allison will an
nOunce his committee.
1t was pretty generally understood
that it would be impossible for the
Republicans to reOrganize the senate
committees on a Republican basis and
that the silver Republicans and POpu-
lists, who have committee plans of l1II-
TCrtance could not be- disturbed under
present conditions. OF course, the
greatest difficulty this phase of the
situation presents is that of filling the
vacancies on the finance committee,
from which a tariff &biH must be re-
ported. At present there are two va
Cancies, one on the Democratic and the
other on the Republican, side.
The two large parties are equally
divided, with jones' of. Nevada. the sill
Yer Republican, holding the balance
OF power. The Republicans, by filling
enc vacancy and giving the other 10
the Democrats, viii have no assurance
of securing a report on the tariff bill.
To claim both vacancies and place Mr..
Jones with the minority members
would cause great opposition among
the Democrats. To arrange these diff
flculties if possible, is what the ad-
NiSOry COMMITTEES is expected TO do.
1t was also recognized in caucus that
such men as Teller and Pettigrew could
not be removed from their chairman
ships and places on the appropriations
committee any more than could Mr..
Jones. without sOhdfying the OppOsi
ton of the three parties which can by
combination organize the senate. For
this reason the advocacy of reOrganiza-
ton on wholly Republican lines was
abandoned almost as soon as preached.
The general desire seemed to be to Sc
cure. such an organization as would re-
suit in continuing the committees IN
charge of Republicans with such as
sistance as could be secured from other

AL0NZ0 j. IS In NEW TROUBLE.
Whltemdn Under Arrest in Neu York on Charge Of
Grand LarCenV

NEW YORK, March 6.-AIonzo 7
Whiteman, thirty-six years old, was
arrested In this city today. He Is
charged with grand larceny in the first
degree, it being alleged that he de-
fauded the Columbian bank by means
or bogus draft. Whiteman had been
IN trouble several times. He was once
a state senator in Minnesota He has
also held several political offices in that
state. At one time he was considered
one of the wealthiest men in Duluth.
The specific complaint against White
men is that on Feb. 20 last he depos-
tied in the Columbian bank a draft
on the National City bank, of Brook
lyn, which came back dishonored.
Whitemans picture was found in the
rogues' gallery and was identified by
Mr.. Griftiths. Whiteman was commit
ted to the Tombs for trial
In 1895 Whiteman was taken from
New York to California on similar
charge. There he was convicted and
sentenced to prison for nine years. The
case was postponed, and after White
man mad spent ten months in prison
the supreme court liberated him bv
revising the judgment Of the lower
court. When he got out he wrote a
pamphlet in which he reviewed the
case and laid all of his troubles to his
relatives, who he claimed We're syste-
matically pursuing him.
In 1894 he was arrested by the De-
troit police, but the governor Of New
York would not honor the extradition
papers. There were also two indict-
ments in the court of general sessions
against Whiteman for swindling. but
they were dismissed.
Chicago, March 6.-Alonzo ]. White
man, an alleged swindler and forger.
who, it is said has operated success
fully in Chicago and other large Amer
lean cities, was captured in New York
this morning by detectives after a
pursuit extending over much territory.
