onposition in New york.

New York, Jan. 2S.-WithiD-the past
two or three days. there has developed
in New York banking circles quite an
opposition TO the movement to make
Lyman J. Gage the next secretary of
the treasury. During the 1898 panic
Mr.. Gage. as president of the First
National Bank of Chicago, sent a cir
cular letter to banks generally
throughout the west in which he
criticized the operations of the New
York bankers.
The latter were much displeaSed with
the utterances of Mr.. Gage as set forth
in his letter and several of the leading
bankers here expressed their opinion
of Mr.. Gage in no uncertain words.
Although three years have passed the
New Workers have not forgotten nor
forgiven the Chicago banker for his
scoring of them and now they propose
to even uD accounts and are taking
quiet, but effective steps to oppose his
appointment.
Mr.. Cages circular letter was writ
ten on Aug. %, 1892. In it he reviews
the action of the New York banks in
issuing clearing house certificates,
which he declares operate against
western banks, as money in Eew York
commanded a premium over bank
checks of Z to . per cent. He. there
fore, advises correspondents that the
Chicago hanks cannot draw drafts on
New York and eastern points and
credit them at par.

IDENTIFIED TOO WELL.
For This Reason Cooney May Get
Into Trouble

San Francisco, Jan. 2S.-Notary
Cooneys habit of using a particular
form of certificate when acknowledge
ing deed, and his omission to use
this particular form at the time when
he claims he acknowledged two deeds
of gift from James G. Fair to Mrs.
Craven, formed the chief topic of dis
cussion this morning in the prelimi-
nary examination of the notary on the
charge of perjury.
The fact of Notary Cooney having
only one particular set of blanks indi-
vidual and bearing his own name in
print thereon, at that time, and hav-
ing, moreover, acknowledged several
deeds on or about the 9th of Septen-
Der, 1894. and having invariably used
these individual certificates, certainly
formed a circumstance in the case.
Judge Cook decided that the certifi-
Gates should be admitted in evidence
and Hosmer started to introduce u
number of deeds acknowledged by
CoOney, some about the time of the
alleged acknowledgment of Mrs. Cra-
Vens deeds.
All were individual, bearing the no
tary's name in print, and all bore the
printers name on the edge.

FoRMAN's NOMINATION.
A Lively Discussion In Executive
Session.

A Lively Discussion In Executive
Session.
Washington, Jan. 2S.-For more than
an hour the senate, this afternoon, dis
cussed in executive session the nomi-
nation Of William 5. Forman, Of
Illinois, to be commissioner of internal
revenue, and finally confirmed him by
a vote of Il TO Is. The opposition was
based almost entirely upon Mr. For
mans conduct in the recent campaign.
Senator Jones, chairman of the ma
tional Democratic committee. said he
opposed the candidacy of Mr.. FOrman
with much reluctance. but he could
not permit his attacks upon the regular
ticket Of the Democratic party to pass
unheeded, especially as they were
brought to the attention of the house
by the appointment to such an i'm
portant position of the man who had
made them.
Remarks along similar lines were
made BY Senators Berry and Stewart.
MIR. Chandler antagonized the nomi-
nation because the nominee was a
Democrat who stood on platform de-
claring for the single gold standard
and free trade.
Mr. Forman was defended by Sen
atOrs Cullom and Hale (Reps) and
Messrs. Mills and Palmer. (Dem.)
The roll call showed that silver
Democrats, the silver boiling Republi-
cans. and the solitary vote of Mr..
Chandler formed the voting opposition.

IN NEW YORK.
There Is the Heaviest Snow Fall For
Many Years.

There Is the Heaviest Snow Fall For
Many Years.
New York. Jan. 2s.-New York awoke
this morning to face the heaviest snow
fall in this region for some years. 1t
started in with determination, the eve
ming before. and kept uD a continual
downfall until the city was buried at
10 a. m. today beneath a robe of over
ten inches. But the snow was dry and
the wind was not strong enough to
create any heavy drifts or other bliZ-
Zard conditions. For this reason, it
readily yielded to the treatment and
reduced the discomfort to the lowest
possible notch. The storm started from
the South Atlantic coast along the
CarOlinas. Moving north. it came in
contact with the colder temperature in
this latitude. and also struck a steady
cold breeze from the northwest. This
made New York the storm cente~:
while snow as falling all over the
middle Atlantic states. this region got
the heaviest dose by far.
Delays in all sorts of traffic: clOgged
surface lines. cOngested thOrOughfares:
crowding and yelling truckmen: ner-
vous and pushing pedestrians; the loud
grinding of snow plOWS and the de-
termined work of the cart men and
SHONGAtISr illdluc up the lES uitLlUll TAU
leau that always comes with a metro
pOlitan storm.
Four horses 10 each car appeared
on nearly all the horse car lines, but
they had slow work of it at best
through the morning
Gable lines were troubled by slippery
cables. which made progress slow and
halting on them. too; so that a large
amount of traffic was diverted to the
elevated roads.
Suburban trains were behind sched-
ule, and western trains on all lines
were an hour or two late. The snow
fall in this vicinity was the heaviest
since the historic blizzard of 1883.
That record breaker scored two and a
half feet on a level while the storm
of today has ten and half inches to its
credit.
The storm effectually closed the port
this afternoon and last night. no yes
sells venturing out or attempting to
come past the bar. During the after
noon. however. a number of vessels
which had anchored inside the Hook
passed out and A few of those due
which had been lying Off shore came in.
Reports from every point in the state
where the telegraph reached showed
the same state of arctic temperature.

Tickles the Goldhues

Washington. Jan. 2S.-The defeat of
Senator Dubois, of Idaho, for re-elec-
tion to the United States senate was
received here with opposite emotions
of qualification and regret; gratifca-
tion by the Republicans, and deep re-
gret by the Democrats and silver men.
The Republicans are elated that one
who so actively espoused the cause of
silver that he bolted his party. has
met defeat in the house of his whilom
friends, and the silver men and Demo-
Gratis are chagrined that so able and
brilliant recruit should be so sum-
marily turned down by silver men and
Democrats. despite their active exer-
tionS in his behalf.
The Democrats in the senate. and
especially those connected with the
national committee. attribute Dubois
defeat to the efforts of Chairman
Hanna.
kilograms of coincidence have been
sent Senator Dubois by Democratic
senators and representatives and by
the Democratic committee

JOINT BALLOT

Fisher Harris was entered in the
senatorial race yesterday, starting with
one vote and gaining one on each Of
the two succeeding ballots. This was
the only noteworthy feature of the
joint session. Il is understood that his
name was not used with his knowl-
edge or consent. and that it was not
the result of any Encouragement be-
tween the three members who voted
for him. Speaker Perkins intimated
several days ago that he intended 10
Note for Mr.. Harris. and Mr. Martin.
who'd an ardent Harris man, had de-
cided to vote for him today, but the
course taken by Mr.. Perkins induced
him to cast his ballot one da-- earlier.
bennion went TO Harris because he is
ready at any time to adopt any course
that promises to break the deadlock.
The Harris movement cost Thatcher
two votes and RaWlins one and the
Thatcher men declared another ballot
would have taken one more from Raw
Inns to Harris. The fact that all but
two of the Rawlins members voted 10
continue the balloing indicated that
they knew of no impending desertions.
1t is believed that Martin and Bennion
Will remain with Harris today and
that he may possibly secure one of the
Populists.
This vote does not represent Harris
strength. and is of no significance. ex-
cept to indicate a spirit of unrest
among the members and a desire TO
bring about changed conditions A mul-
tiplicity Of candidates. however does
not tend TO q termination OF the con-
test, in the opinion of the politicians
Too many candidates is what has allied
the situation up 10 date, but it is evi-
dent that many OF the members are
becoming lukewarm in the support of
their respective candidates and are
inclined To go straying after new men.
This inclination extends to each of the
three candidates and may force other
dark horses into the race against their
wishes
While Rawlins and Thatcher each
lost two votes yesterday, there was no
actual loss Of strength. as these mem
bers viii return to them whenever their
Iotes are needed to elect, and yester-
lays changes did not materially alter
oracles. however, profess to believe
that present conditions can continue
more than a day or two longer. Each
of the manage believes one of his Op-
ponents must go to pieces soon. and
tEat this Will bring about an election
There were indications last evening
that the Henderson managers were
expecting a favorable turn Of the tide
today. 1t was reported that Speaker
Perkins had consented to go back to
Henderson for today. and that some of |
the Rawlins men were expected to vote I
for that candidate. OVertures have /
also been made TO the Populists, but IL /
is not believed that their votes viii go |
TO Henderson. Whether or not the 4
Henderson hopes were based upon any 4
assurances of new support. ii is known /

of order on the ground that the joint
assembly was convened for the special
purpose of electing a United States
senator. and had no power to consider
memorials to congress or legislative
measures.
on the SSrd ballot Martin followed
Perkins from Thatcher to Harris,
which was the only change. A motion
TO dissolve was lost, by vote of %
10 90
On the 34th ballot Bennion left Raw
Inns and increased the Harris vote to
three. There was apparent some un
easiness and much uncertainty as to
the consequences of the rising Harris
tide, but at this point an adjournment
checked the movement and gave the
senatorial managers an opportunity to
investigate.
When Mr. Gibson's name was called
on the last ballot that member pro-
voked laughter by naming Moses"
and letting it go at that. His vote
was recorded for Thatcher.
The assembly adjourned to 11:50 to-
day.
