BUSHNELL WILL APPOINT.
But WhoP is the Question That Wor-
ries Politicians.

New York. Feb. ia Times special
from Columbus, o., says:
Governor Bushnell talked freely last
evening about the senatorial vacancy
and the proposed appointee.
He settled one thing, and that is that
no extra session of the legislature
would be called to select a successor
to Senator Sherman.

ant-Governor Jones will be the lucky

Nothing, except what you see in
the newspapers. was the frank an

conversation on the subject, and he
has given me no intimation, directly
or indirectly, that he wants the place"
At this juncture a listener suggested
that Governor Bushnell should resign
and allow Lieutenant-GoVerno Jones
to appoint him TO the vacancy.

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE war of the steel
rail giants did not undergo any change in
this market today so far as the selling
price is concerned but the hostile lines
were arrayed as sctrongly against each
other as on the first day of the week.
The fact that the present necessities OF
prosperous railroads in the steel rail line
have been satisfied in a large measure
by the big contracts made in the last few
days with the Carnegie and Illinois Steel
companies, accounts for the stop of price
cutting. The Carnegie price for steel
rails anywhere was today SIT ton. At
this tempting figure the following orders
have been placed: Twenty-Five thousand
tons to the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul railroad: 10000 tons to the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe. and 1.4O0 tons to
the Chicago, Hammond & Western
President Gates. of the Illinois Steel
company, left Chicago today for Pitts
burg. The object of his trip is kept
secret by other officers of the company.
but considerable significance is attached
to his departure by iron and steel men in
view of the fierce fighting which is being
waged in that industry. In his absence
Second Vice-president William f. Palmer
said to a representative of the United
The Illinois Steel company today sells
rails for SIS per ton. We understand
some of the eastern mills have offered
them in this market at $l7 per ton
DO you look for the dissolution of the
iron ore pool as result of the rail and
billet pools going to pieceS?
1T is safe to say, speaking generally,
that there is no such thing today as a
pool in the iron and steel business. We
have nothing to do with the ore pool.
Although $1S was the price officially
given by the Illinois company for today
the inside opinion is that what rails were
sold today by the eastern concern We're
at the Carnegie price of 81. The prefer
ence for placing orders with the Illinois
company would be given by western roads
when the price was cut to the Carnegie
quotation.
The fact that there is no agree
ment among the companies operating
the iron mines in the Mesaba and
Vermillion ranges and in the Mahon-
ing mines region covering the out
put of the mines or the selling price
for 1897, is not regarded here as proof
that there will be no iron ore pool this
year. The agreement is not made until
the time for lake navigation approaches,
when lake rates are fixed and upon them
are based the price of ore. 1t is believed
the big cut in the finished product of
the mines which is likely TO remain
through the year. will have a tendency
to disturb the market in the raw ma
terial. when the opportunity for profit
able export business in the mill product
in competition with Engnsh and CONT
mental mills is taken into consideration.

New York. Feb. ia Sun special
from Washington says:
Senator Quay left town rather sud-
denly last evening and the politicians
at first thought he had gone to Can
ton. 1t is learned since, however, that
he went to Philadelphia to consult
with some of his political friends.
The senator is worried over the re-
peated statements of those who have
visited the president-elect that Penn
sylvanian is to be appointed to a
place in the cabinet and it is init
mated that one reason why he went
to Philadelphia was that ne learned
that P. c. Knox of Pittsburg was in
Canton yesterday. Mr.. Knox is Chris.
McGee's candidate for the office of
Encouragement, and has some very
strong backing. The president-elect is
known to have given serious thought
to the question of putting Charles
Emory Smith in the cabinet, in spite
of the attempt of Senator Quay and
Senator-elect PenroSe to head off this
movement by recommending Governor
Hastings.
California congressman are authority
for the statement that the a. p. A.
organization is very strongly opposed
to the selection of Judge McKenna to
be secretary of the interior because
both he and his family are Roman
Catholics The Indian bureau is I'M
der the control of the secretary of the
interior. and as considerable troubles
have arisen during the past few
years over the question of government
aid to Catholic Indian missions, the
anti-Catholic organizations are very
much disturbed over the selection of
Judge McKenna. The California con-
gressmen are of the opinion that
Bishop Ireland's influence was strongly
eXerted in favor of McKenna'S ap-
pointment, and this explains the action
of the president-elect in ignoring the
recommendation of the delegation
that ex-Congressman Davis be APP
pointed.
A gentleman who recently returned
from Canton is authority for the
statement that the preSident-elect is
so confused with the situation in the
south and so discouraged with the
rivalry between the states of Mary
land, Kentucky and Tennessee for the
honor of securing the southern place
in the cabinet, that he is disposed to
drop the south altogether and appoint
the encouragement from New York
or Pennsylvania. The postmaster
and the attorney general
ship are the only two places for which
selections have not been made, and a
senator who is as close to the presi-
dent-elect as any man in Washington
said last night that in his opinion the
selection of Mark Hanna to be post
would be announced as
soon as it is definitely known that
Governor Bushnell is not to appoint
him as the successor of Senator Sher-
man in the senate.

FOREIGNERS AGAINST US.
An Organization For Self-Protection
In Chicago.

Chicago, Feb. 11.-Chicago packers,
exporters and provision dealers have
united in an association for self-protec-
ton against European trade hostility.
Especially in Germany and several CAN
tons in Switzerland, antagonism to
American products has assumed such
proportions that something had to be
done, and accordingly about SO inter-
ested business men met yesterday in
the arbitration room of the board of
trade. E. ]. Martyr, of Armour & Co.,
was made chairman, and S. L. Under
wood secretary.
The Provision Dealers and Exporters
association was at once formed, its OBJ
ject being 1.-The consideration of all
matters pertaining to the interests of
provision dealers and exporters in re-
lation TO domestic and foreign COM
merce." The membership, it was de-
cided, should consist of members of
firms and representatives of corpora
tions and firms actively engaged as
packers, dealers or exporters of pro-
visions.
The annual meeting will be held on
the second Tuesday in March, when a
report of the executive committee must
be submitted.

Richfeld .Doings.

Richfeld, Feb. I.-Last night the sky
was clear and it looked as though the
storm was over, but again this morning
the signs of storm are as good as ever.
Reports from the higher mountain val
leys say that snow on the level there is
five and half feet. Snow shoes are in
use in many places. Farmers say that
there is already enough snow to insure
plenty of water for next year s irriga-
ton. Roads and streets on the clay lands
of Sewer valley are nearly impossible.
Despite all this storm. more miners are
wintering at their mines than have ever
wintered there before. And even during
the heaviest snowstorms there has been
a continued increase of the working force
in the Gold mountain country.
Early last month three water diggers'
struck flow of water about 500 feet from
the spring that supplies this town with
its irrigating supply. The city claims
that it is part of the city stream. while
the owners claim that it is another vein
entirely. An interesting suit will follow.
But meantime. the success of that strike
is encouraging others to sink in quest
of this much needed article for Richfield

water is provided. All parties hope that
the new spring is not draining the city
spring. and that water will be found in

Cheyenne, wy. Feb. 1O.-A dramatic
scene was witnessed in the Albany
county district court last night, when
the grand jury of Albany county
brought in indictments against James
A. Underwood and Mrs. Anna Mosler'
both charged with arson, and MIS-
X. Talbert, charged with being an ac-
cessory to the crime. The prisoners
were placed under $500 bail each 10

district court. The accused are all
well known and have heretofore borne
a good reputation in the place in when
they reside.

not until the circumstances came up
leading To the above indictments that
the citizens were aroused to the SIT
uation. The accused occupied the
house of Colonel J. w. Donnelly, one
of the finest in Laramie. ON the night
of Jan. 8 the place was discovered on
fire, but the prompt action OF the ue-
partment prevented It's destruction.
Investigation showed that the interior
of the house had been saturated with
coal oil and other combustibles win

evidence was brought before the grand
jury that but recently heavy insurance
policies had been taken out by one OF
the accused.
The other indictments were the only
ones brought in by the grand jury,
which until now has not been called
