Ellinghouse at Reno.

The San Francisco Report has the
following:
ALI ElliDghouse came back from
Nevada yesterday. He talked en-
coulagIngly about his trip, and is
now moderately sanguine that some
kind Of Il carnival will be held 10 that
forsaken country before long. He
said both Reno and Carson would
make strong bids for tho monstrons
show, and die city which offered the
biggest Involvement would get it.
Reno, OF course, is preferable to Car
son, owing TO its proximity to the
overland railroad. 1t is somethioc of
a task to get from Reno to Carson, 50
unless the latter oil &c hangs 40 ex-
ceedingay liberal Inducements Brady
and Co will assuredly move to Reno.
1t is known that the young
favors this spot. Ellinghouse saws
that Reno can accommodate d crowd of
almost any size. 1t has good facilit-
les for a carnival Of this description.
he has a place in mind where a splen-
did arena can be made. 1t will be
equally as modern as the one at Car
son. 1t is not expected that the site
will be chosen until Elliughouse can
ascertain what offer each city will
make. The leading business men of
each city are consulting among them
selves. and in the course of a few
days an offer may be looked for.
During his stay 10 Nevada Filing
house kept Brady constantly informed
as to what Was going on.
Carson only has to give the arena
free to get the plum, and if it waits
long it may net get it.

THE HAWAIIAN TREATY
THE COMMITTEE WILL CONSIDER IT NEXT
WEDNESDAY,,
The AnnexationiStS Now Admit That the Treaty
Cannot Be Ratified at the Present
Session of Congress.

Washington, June Ex-senator Davis,
chairman Of the Senate committee ON
foreign relations said to-day that the
committee would take up the Hawaiian
treaty at its next regular meeting which
will be held on Wednesday of next week,
but that no special meeting would be
held for that purpose. He said that
the treaty, would, in any event, be held
in committee sufficient length Of time to
permit all sides to be heard but that the
time would be controlled somewhat by
the indications as to whether the Senate
would consider the treaty at the present
session. On this latter point the Sena-
tor declined to advance an opinion.
The impression is now prevalent in the
Senate even by the friends of annexa-
ton, that the treaty cannot be ratified
at the present session, if there is any
such opposition as promised. The pro-
gram now is that the treaty will be re-
ported from the committee and that af-
ter the tariff bill has passed it will be
called up. The Senate will be asked il
a time for vote can be fixed and upon
the objections by the opponents of the
treaty its friends will say they are con-
tent to allow it to lie over until the next
session. One reason for not pressing the
treaty in the face of opposition is that
the sentiment which may be only partial
ly opposed to the treaty will be crystal
lied, which is not desirable. 1t is also
believed that Senators who are now un-
decided may become influenced favor
ably, after mature consideration and af-
ter finding out what the drift of senti-
ment is in their States. 1t is well known
that Senators cannot be held here after
the tariff bill is passed, in the hot wealth
er.

Germany has long regarded Hawaii as
within the sphere of American interests
and can scarcely ind any pretext either
to question the right of the United States
to annex or to interfere by protest or OBJ

Successor to Mr.. Briggs.

The county commissioners have now
been at work for two days revising the
jury list and as yet they are only about
half through. They will continue the
work to-day, then adjourn till some
time next week, when the task will be

and register of deeds will elect a success
sor to Mr.. Thos. HI. Briggs, resigned, on

Jas. H. Fleming will probably be chosen.
Rev. w. G. Clements, of Morrisville, who

use of his name in this' connection, and
said be could not serve if elected.
The County Supervisor will not be

didates for the place are coming to the
'front.' and here, as elsewhere, those little
words in the law-'practical teacher

teachers, but politicians are asking for
the place. But for this prescribed quail
fcation it is said that ex-State Senator
Rev. III. w. Norris would probably be
the choice of the board. Another promI-
nent candidate-3nd one that is a practi-
cal teacher and has been one for thirty

matters Superintendent Mebane's ad-
vice will be followed and politics will be

This afternoon J. G. Pinkussohns "ori-

made to test the validity of the "original

agency was the first to be opened under

tention of the State to attempt to break

COMMENDED BY REV. BEATrlE.
Chief Yates Is Encouraged in His
Latest Move.


The time given to women of shady
character to leave the city expired
last night, and the usual haunts of
some of them are said to be vacant
today. Chief Yates, whose order
made such a scattering among the
demi-monde, found only one on the
streets today, and he gave her one
hour to bid adieu to the city, which
she was glad to avail herself Of.
People are usually quicker to con-
denim bad action than to commend a
good one, but this is not the case
with one man in Mankato. This af
ternoon, Rev. Lee W. Beattie called
at the city hail, -beckoned Chief Yates
to one side, and congratulated him on
the move which he had made toward
Kidding the city of an undesirable ele.
ment.
Whether the women have really
left the city seems to be an open
question. Many affect to believe that
they have merely sought shelter dur
ing the present storm, and that when
the reform wave subsidies they will
be found to be still here, ready to re.
turn to their old resorts. Let us hope
that this will not be the case.
