In the Senate Tuesday the fact was
developed that the Republican free
silver Senators from the West mean to
have very little to do with their sound
money brethren. Senators Teller, Du-
bOis, Cannon, Mantle and Stegart gave
notice, in effect, that their Republican
colleagues need expect no help from
them in party affairs, and predicted
that the efforts of the incoming ad-
ministration to better the financial
situation would result in ignominious
failure.

Thc Tornado Here To-day.

1.-THE Tornado" Lincoln j. Carriers re-
alistic melodrama, will be at the Aca-
DENY to-day for afternoon and night
performances. The realistic features Of
the piece, as shown by its presenta ton
here last season, are upon very elabo-
rate scale. The tornado scene. in which
buildings are swept away, and whirling
masses fly hither and thither on the
stage, is a more ambitious effort along
the line Of realism than any stor.7
scene which has been presented here be-
fore or since. They play, which tho
author has fitted to his realistic effects,
contains human interests and natural
results. and combines with the mechani-
cal feature, to make an interesting pro-
dnction.
