UNCERTAINTY ABOUT GAGE.
Some Repu blicans Are Angry Over
the ProsDect Of His Appointment,

Some Repu blicans Are Angry Over
the Prospect of His Appointment.
Lyman j. Gage, the Chicago banker,
may or may not be appointed Secretary OF
the Treasury. opinion is divided as to
whether President elect Mckinley has
really decided on the selection of Mr.
Gage. There are those who think that the
President-elect has actually offered the
place to Mr.. Gage, while others scout the
idea.
The Illinois delegation in Congress is
very sore over the prospect of Mr.. Gage S
appointment. Neither Senator Cullom nor
any member of the House has been con-
suited b. Mr.. Mckinley touching Mr.. Cages
availability. Indeed, the Senator himself
was IN aspirant for Cabinet hOnoTs. OBJ
lection is raised against Mr.. Gage because it
is urged that it would be bad politics to
put national banker at the head of the
Treasury Department, and man of ex-
tremely moderate protection views.
While no one questions Mr.. Cages fit
ness to fill Carlisle's shoes, the point
raised against him by the Republican lead
ers at the Capitol is that he is not an out
and-out Republican, but on the contrary,
belongs TO the mugwump genus. 1t was
only eight years ago that Mr.. Gage was a
man.

Mrs Agnes Shea, n welldressed and
quite attractive-looking woman, who gave
her age as 3s, though she appeared some
what younger, has been committed to St
Elizabeths insane asylum, suffering from
peculiar phase OF mental alteration.
She has been boarding for some time with
Mrs William L. Jacques, of No. sol Ninth
street northwest. Sunday night She was
taken violently insane, and it required the
Combined efforts of the household to sub
due her.
Her fancy was that a large man, with
long, black whiskers, was in the house and
plotting to kill her. She declared that
the man with the whiskers had a big ak,
and was following her about with the inten-
ton Of chopping off her head.
No amount of persuasion or threats will
induce her to abandon the idea, and during
the entire night she was in a violent state.
She did not know who her wOuld-be as
sasSin was. but was confident that no one
would protect her against the man.
Early yesterday morning Mrs Jacques
notified the police at the Twelfth street
station Of tie woman's rawlings. and Officer
y. K. HerndOn was sent To bring her TO the
station.
first the woman declined to accompany
him, and thereupon the officer reSOrted To
a stratagem. She accepted his offer to pro-
tect her from the bewhiskered individual
and readily consented to go with him upon
tie promise that he would make love to her.
Mr. HeTndon, who is the AdOnis OF the
First, catered to her wish, and all the way
to the station Miss Shea patted his curly
head and called him sweetheart. No one
else could manage the woman.
Mrs. Shea stated that she was married
and had two children, but that her hus-
band deserted her two years ago. 1t is
not known, however, that she was ever
married She was formerly employed in
Baums dry goods store, but for some
months it has been observed by her friends
that her mind was not right. Sunday, how
ever, was the first time that her condition
had been serious.
An examination of her condition was
made by Police Surgeons hewitt and Hick-
ling. and upon order of Sanitary Officer
Frank, she was committed to the Govern
ment Insane Asylum and placed in the dan
perOus ward

SOTHERN'S PECULIAR DEATH
An Autopsy Reveals the Presence of
a Poison i'm the Stomach.
The Body Had Been Taken to His
Family, But the Coroner Or
dered 1t to the Morgue.

Coroner Hammett and the police are en-
gagedthis ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS thecauses
which led to the death of Ernest SOthern,
the blacksmith, who was found dead, face
downward, on the M-street bridge across
James Creek Canal about O'Clock last
evening, as told in The Morning Times.
Deputy Coroner Glazebrook performed
an autopsy on the body of Sothern at the
morguc about noon today. He found the
stomach much inflamed, with evidence Of
the presence OF an irritant poison.
As there are some suspicious circum-
stances connected with the case, Dr.
Hdmmett decided, after the result OF the
autopsy had been made known to him
this afternoon, that there should be u
thorough examination into the case. He
accordingly telephoned to the morgue
master TO hold the body until the matter
had been disposed of.
To the coroner surprise, word came back
over tile wire that Sothcrns remains had
been surrendered to lis family, who reside
at No 332 | street southeast.
Have the body returned to the morgue
at once was flashed back to the morgue by
the coroner.
The Sixth precinct patrol wagon was
quickly sent TO the Sothern home for the
dead man, and he was laid out on the
death slab to await developments.
There are two theories the police are
working on. one is that he committed sui
cIde by taking a fatal draught from small
black bottle, owing to sickness. His friends
do not believe, however, that Mr.. SOthern
took his own life, as he had no occasion to
do 50.
1ne other theory is that he was the vic
tim of foul play, and died from knock
out drops" or poison administered in
some other way. At any rate, Dr. Ham
NETT believes there are grounds for a
further and more thorough investigation,
and il is being made.
The theory that Sothern froze to death
has, of course, been exploded by the autopsy.

THE MARKET WAS STRONG.
All of the Standard Issues Display yed
Material Gains.

New York, Jan. 26.-The stock market
during the first hour of business displayed
considerable strength and the standard is
sues scored material gains.
The advance was equal to 3-4a1 "a per
cent in the anthracite coaIers and 1-4a3-4
per cent in the general list Lackawanna
rose l 3-4 to SO "a, Delaware and Hud-
son 1-2 to I07 rs. Jersey Central g. 4
to SO IA, and Reading ga to 26 Ia
The recovery in these issues was the re-
suit Of statements by President OIiphant
that the one million 1-2 per cent de-
benture bonds of the New York and Can
ada sold in 1896 represent new money ac-
tually expended on capital account of the
road by the Delaware and Hudson, and
most of the eXpeI ditures were made many
years ago. The issue was not III ade until
the amount reached one million.
This answer was made by the presi-
dent in answer TO a direct charge that the
sale had been made to capitalize the New
York and Canada profit and loss balance.
The rally in the shares developed the fact
that stocks are decidedly scarce, and that
the receut bear raids have not disturbed
long holdings.
In the general list General Electric, the
Grangers Hooking Valley, Tenness ee
Coal, and Omaha were conspicuous for
strength. At IL O'Clock the market was
q shade easier in tone on realizations.
A sudden decline in LaekawaDna from
153 3-4a152 induced realizations in the
stock market after IL O'Clock and the
early advance was partially lost. London
was a buyer of st. Paul. but commission
houses generally were complaining of
she poor business.
The industrials, Sugar, General Elec-
tric, and Chicago Gas, ran off 1-4s1-2
per cent. Tobacco was intensely dull not

THE PRESIDENTS AUTHORITY,
A Report on the Question of sigma
ture of Resolutions

Under the direction of a resolution of
February last the Senate Committee on the
Judiciary today reported upon the question
of whether or not concurrent resolutions
require the signature of the President.
The report, which was drawn up by Sen
ator Hill, states that it depends not upon
the mere form OF the resolutions, but upon
the fact whether they contain matter which
is properly to be regarded as Legislative
in its character and effect. If they do, they
must be presented to the President for his
approval; otherwise they need not be. In
brief, the nature or substance of the reso-
luton and not its form controls the ques-
ton of its disposition.
