ALL TALK PROBABLY.

The treat of the negro Congressman
Murray from South Carolina to object to
the counting OF the electoral vote of that
State when the two Houses assemble on
Wednesday to determine who has beeu
elected President of the United States. is
causing some talk in Washington Int no
anxiety Some of the Democrats say if
the Republicans attempt to throw out the
vote of South Carolina on the ground that
there is no republican form of govern
ment there. the proceedings will be so in
terrepted that Mckinley will not be in
augurated on the 18th of March next, and
Secretary Olney will have to fill the Pres
idential chair for the next four wears.
Senator Hear, of Massachusetts, has
already given the law in the case, which
is that all such objections must be nut in
writing and signed by at least one Senn-
tor, as we'll as one representative. 1t is
further provided that no returns shall he
rejected from any State unless there are
more than one. land when such is the case
only those can be counted which have
peeh regularly given by electors chosen
according to law. Each State Provides
its own tribunal for determining the re-
suit of its election for Presidential cleo
tors, and when this tribunal has made it's
returns and the governor has certified TO
its correctness, according to the decision
of the electoral commission in the Tilden.
Hayes contest, there is no chance of going
back of this. Such then being the stun-
ton, no one believes the Republicans,
with all the issues they have at stake,
will jeopardize McKinley's chances bv
taking an extreme course.

a TRIBUTE TO GENERAL LEE.

In commenting upon the observance of
General Lees birthday, the Cincinnati
Commercials Tribune pronounces a grnce-
full eu'ogy upon the life and character of
the South's great soldier.
Without diminishing the value of the
tribute by..referring in deprecating man.
ner to the Southern cause, the CONNER
cial' Tribune pays its need of respect to
General Lee rs one of the greatest com
manders of the time 1t refers to his
brilliant record ms n West Point student.
and also to the fact that, in laying his
sword upon Virginia's altar. he was ac
tuated less by feeling of hatred for the
union than by sense of loyalty to his
native State.
In speaking of General Lees private
life, the Commercial-Tribun says:
''His private life was hameless, and he
died as he lived. Christian gentleman.
His record as commander marks him n
worthy descendant of Light Horse
Harry, and history will recognize him
among the worlds greatest soldiers.
There can be little doubt that had not
State and personal attachments won him
away from his sworn allegiance to the
stars and stripes, he might have occupied
a high place, not only in the military his
tory of the civil war, but in the civic and
lolitical history that followed Appomnt-
toX.'
While the foregoing tribute is Just, it
is also generous and, coming from one of
the leading newspapers of the great
Northwest, it cannot fail to awaken a re-
sponsive chord in every Southern heart
AS the mists of sectional conflict, which
have so long interferred with an accurate
appreciation of the great leaders on both
s'des, are beginning 30 clear away, the
nobility of General Lees character is be-
coming daily more and more apparent.
In line with the tribute paid to the
great Nirginian by the Commercial
Tribune is the handsome eulogium pro-
nomnced upon him few nights ago in
the city by DR.. Russell II. CDnwell, of
Philadelphia, II veteran OF the Union
army, who declared that General zee was
one of the noblest products of the war
between the States.
Is this excessive praise for Il hero, the
motto Of whose life is contained in his
own famous declaration: duty sis the
sublimest word lin our language. At.
lanta Constitution.

keiSter, of Baltimore.

S'"S""i W iSou, III lsNCninEG For
keister, of Baltimore.
Baltimore, Feb. S.-Coogan is the NAM,
OF another new pitcher whom Manager
llanlon will add to his galaxy Of Young
blood this season.
Coogan pitched for the Paterson tenn,
of the Atlantic League last season AID
showed much promise. Mr.. Iianlon tried
last fall before the senson closed to get
nm Tor this season, but the deal fell
through. Some time ago the Paterson
club wanted Keister and offered to trad.
Coogan for him. Mr.. Hanlon had been
considering the matter, and on saturday
had a talk with Keister.
keister said he felt that he had not had
sufficient experience yet to succeed as i,
national league player, and that he pre-
ferred to play one year more at least in
minor League company. Upon keister's
expressed wish, Mr.. Hanlon decided to
accept Paterson's offer for Coogan Ted
Sullivan is great admirer OF young
Coogan and strongly advised NJ. Hnnlon
to get him.
The Orioles list of young pitchers next
season will include Corhett, Nops.
Amolc, Horton and Coogan, besides DR..
Pond ann Hotter, the former with one and
the latter ;vith two years experience in
the big league. Besides the seven
pitchers mentioned Baltimore has the
veterans Mcmahon, Esper and Hemmiur.

STEAMER IN a CRASH.
The Natchez Strikes Bank While Max
ing n Landing.


Vicksburg Miss, Feb. S.-The steamer
NatcheZ met with serious accident at
1:3O o'clock yesterday morning, twenty
miles below this city.
Captain feathers and Clerk Morris ar
rived here in the afternoon in IL buggy
from the scene of the accident The cap
tain states that while making a landing
the boat struck the bank. Her Chin
neys, stacks and rigging all went down
with crash. One stack went overboa ri
and is under the boat. One OF the chin
neys fell directly across the captains
room in which he ana his wife were sit
ting, but it did not crush in the room, as
the bulkhends were double thickness.
The other stack struck n corner of the
pilot house and crushed through the
decks. The shock opened many of the
forward butts, but struck no tim bers, as
far as could be seen.
The tug Joe Seny went down with II
barge and will bring up the freight from
the steamer. The Natchez will return to
New Orleans a..d will be locked for re-
pairs.

FOOT-ROT OF SHEEP.
The Nature o tho Disease Explained By
Veterinarian.

The Nature tho Disease Explained BY =
Veterinarian.
Foot-rot of sheep is easily contracted
by the peculiar formation of the foot.
The horn of the foot grows downward
over the sole, and unless it is worn
away by sufficient attrition of the soil,
it turns under and forms a lodgment
for mud, dung, gravel and moisture,
which soften the sole and in time rot
or wear it away, when the ten der yes
cular tissues of the foot are exposed
and become highly inflamed. The in
fam,nation dcgencrates into liberation
and puruient matter is formed, along
with fungoid grnnulations known us
proud flesh. 1t is quite possible that
germs Of some peculiar character may
find a seedbcd in the diseased tissues;
or that the degcncrated cell matter
sloughcd off from the diseased feet may
furnish the virus, which comes in con-
tact with feet which, being in bad con
dition through neglect, are not able &c
resist the contact, but absorb the
poisonous matter and SO become dis
