applauded by the Democrats. He said
he felt called upon to make brief state

claring he would burn her house. He
was seen to strike three matches at the
window just before the fire, and was
seen and accosted by several persons

Ex-senator Pritchard went to see the
President to-day with FL. A. Gudger and

ment to the Brazilian mission. Gudger
Is said to be growing impatient.
The nomination of II. G. Evans, OF
Tennessee, to be, Commissioner of Pen.
sions, which was sent to the Senate to-
day, was clear defeat for the Pritchard-
Brownlow combination. The cry that
"Pritchard stands very close to McKin-
ley' is sure to be myth. 1t is not pro-
bable that North Carolina will secure
single foreign appointment. The reason
is that the Republican National commit
tee spent $4,000 there, and yet the State
| went for Bryan, and could not even
| elect sOund-money Senator. The only
places worth having outside of the State
have been mortgaged to Cheatham,
Dancy and Brewer, who will probably
secure something in Washington.
