Hsralding Senator Wolcstft
 Return to Free SilTer
OPPOSES SECRETARY GAGE
An Assertion that His Policy is
 Not the Presidents
A Prediction that the Senator's In = d gnation will Cool to Such an Extent that He Wilt Not Out His Job.

New York, Dec 22.-The World to- day prints the following special dis patch from Washington: The ex- elusive publication in the World of Senator Wolcott's threat to resign from the senate created a sensation here in political circles. While many believe that his indignation may suf- ficiently cool to prevent the actual re- linquishment of his seat, all agree that his return to the advocacy of the free and unlimited silver coinage is certain. President Mckinley and Sec retary Gage are at variance, or Ssmator Wolcott and his sympathizers are ut ter1y deceived as to the presidents gt- titude.
 Mr. WoIcott has since his return from Europe talked long and earnestly y with the president and he def5nds the president, while open assertion is made by Secretary Wolcott's sympa- thizers that Secretary Gage misrepre- sents the administration, and that if it were not for the political dis urb- ance it would cause, MT. Gage might retire from the cabinet. This state ment, which is HOW made privately, is likely to be made publicly before long

Brookings Couple Once Divorced Re-
 mated at Huron,

Huron, s. D., Dec. 22.-This week James Christy of Volga and Mrs. Elsie Christy of Huron were married.
 The event demonstrates that a South Dakota divorce is not always a suc- cess. Less than two years ago MT. and Mrs. Christy were living on farm in Broohings county, which they had acquired by hlard labor, and were hap py and contented citizens They de- cided to move to city. The farm was rented ,and they moved to Volga. The hustle and hustle of the Sioux river metropolis did not prove congenial, and disagreements arose. Lawyers were called in and divorce secured.
 The ex-wife came ito Huron to, re- side. Overtures for a reconciliation were made, and resulted in the rs- marriage this week The couple will move to their Brookings county farm in few days with the firm intention of remaining there the balance of their allotted time on earth They have each registered a solemn VOW that never more will they enandon a peace full abode in the rural districts for the deceptive pleasures of a life in a great city-like Volga.

Omaha, Neb., Dec. 22.-An import ant case, involving the liberty of the press and the power of the court, has come to an issue here. On Wednesday Judge Keyser of the district court is- sued an injunction which forbade the WoTld-Herald publishing or referring to a resolution of the license beard passed November 29, announcing the determination of the board to be gov erned in the advertising of-licenses granted by former finding of the board that the WorldAHeuald was the paper of the largest circulation in Douglas county.

HIS MOTHER WAS ALIVE.
Mrs. Sarah Wilson, Lost Mother of Ia
 St. Paul Man, Found

Minneapolis, Minn., Dec 22.-A spe- cial dispatch from Cleveland, Ohio, late today tells strange story aboat Mrs. Sarah Chapman Wilson, aged 80 years, who arrived in that city late yesterday afternoon, and soon afte. her arrival took a ride in the patrol wagon. An hour later she was ridir g to the city hospital in a cushioned tired carriage
 This transformation was in keeping with other romantic events in the wo- mans history. She is the mother of s. V. Harris of St. Paul, ard he has not ssen her for years, ,duri ng which time MT Harris supposed his mother was dead.
 Mrs. Wilson was found walking the streets, and as she seemed to be lost, and told peculiar story, she was a rested as vagrant. At the police sta ton she said she was looking for her long lost son. whom she had been unable to locate for years. Inquiry developed the fact that the son was MT. Harris of St. Paul, and by use oj the telegraph he was located in very short time, and said he would leave St Paul for Cleveland at once.
 In the meantime the old lady be- came ill and was sent to the hospital MT. Harris will arrive in Cleveland to- 1 night.
 The dispatch does not tell why Mrs Wilson was in Cleveland, or why hel son supposed her to be dead, the cor respondence leaving thsSe importan 1 details to the imagination.

NO GERMAN AGREEMENT
Nothing on Which Either Side
 Can Make COnCeSSionSA
Des re to BuiId Up the American Sugar Trade an Obstacle-A want of Progress in Treati-s With France and England.

Washington, Dec. 22.-Reciprocity negotiations between the United States and Germany are practically suspended. They never got beyond the initial stage. There appears to have been a willingness ca the part of both governments to look in,o the suo- ject. but the inquiry did not deveJ Jop any prospect of matlrial concess ons on either side. The a4tc1,s on which a reciprocity agreement can tia mad , are produced in France and in Ger many
 The utmost extent of the rec.p1octy treaty bstween the United States and Germany under the present law will b. 20 per cent reduction of the duty on certain agreed upon German poducts. Germany is chiefly concerned about sugar, but 20 per cent reduction in the duty permitted under the Dingley law, it is said, would be of insignificant consequence. Moreover, some doub. has arisen as to whether any conces- sions on this article would be granted by the United States in view of a ten dency toward building up the Ameri- can sugar trade as against that of bounty paying nations.
 The negotiations with France are similarly at a standF till owing to the course of the French governmeua in daising duties on lard and other American products. Reciprocity ne- got,iations with Great Britain as to tna British West Indies are proceeding slowly. but an agreement is not ex- pected in the near future

CIVIL SERVICE RULES.
They May Be Changed By President
 Mckinley.

Washington, Dec. 22-President Me K;nley is contemplating slight modi- fications of the famous civil s-,rv ce order of President Cleveland, which threw the protection ef the classified service over several thousand federal places at the disposal of the admin, S : tration officials.
 The changes contemplated by th3 president have the approval of the civil service ccmm;ssi-m and are aimed to give internal revenue and custom collectors and other like off dals the power to select their own subordinates, particularly those who handle money fer which the; coilec.- ors are liable under bond.
 The administration officials say thal. there are many branches of the pub lie service in which trusted emp oyes of this kind will be removed from the protection of the civil service law, but that the aggregate number of em- pli1yes affected is not large. The presid smt's order may be issued sho t. ly ard the knowledge of it is re-ponsi- bel for the widely circulated repor that Mckinley is about to revoke CleNelands order and release abou. 45 ,000 employees from the classified civil service.
 The story goes that Senators Hanna and Fairbanks, Elktns, Prftchard and others have told Mckinley that his political future a-d that of the' re- publican party depends upon his un- doing the work of Cleveland, which they say was not decided upon until it was known that the republicans were coming into power. MT. Cleve- land prlmptly shut the door in the faces of 45,000 hop;ful republican workers. In view, however, of Presi- | dent McKinley's statement in his Ie 1 cent message thai he will "upholG 1 and extend the civil service law," it i: 1 not likely that he will ks.en t, l those who think it his Guty | to undo tIhe' work of Cleveland
 notwithstanding it was done, to keel i republicans out of the federal offices
 Even Gen. Grosvenor, the leader O 1 ,,11e forces, does not claim ,O have 1e
 ceived much encouragement ye

 The Germans remain unsettled and the Chinese consuls are und sc de whether it shall be psace or war wi Germany. China regards Russa as her only friend, and asks her advice alone. British influence is nil having suffered greatly through the failure of the loan negotiations. China is now negotiating loan from Russa The latter demands the dismissal of the British uadlroad engineers in north China and it is probable that it will be granted The German drill in structors will be dismissed At the ex- pirat.on of their contracts they will be replaced by Russians Russian of ficers have already been appointed to drill the troops of north China.
