Senator Rawlins said: Il was not at
all astonished, for 1 have been unable
to believe Hanna would fail. in view
of Republican methods. 1 never worked
myself up to hope for his defeat
The senator thinks his election quite
as likely to help Democrats as his de-
feat
Senator Cannon had not fully ADAM
Goned hope of defeating Hanna. He
was one of the signers, with Mantle and
Pettigrew, of telegram to the fusion
silver Republican members from Gin
cinnati this morning, urging them to
leave Hanna for the good of the silver
Republican party. But he agreed to the
suggestion that the election was a good
thing for the silver cause, in that it

OsBORNE's BOOM.

Ex-Governor Osborne of Wyoming is
prominently mentioned tonight as
candidate for chairman of the Demo-
cratic congressional committee His
boom arose suddenly and has grown
rapidly. Osborne has not yet fully con-
scented to be a candidate, but if he en-
tiers the. race he is sure to be formid-
able. This is due to several circum-
stances, notably his location in the west
and his heirship of the Hinrichsen
boom, which collapsed this afternoon
by reason of the Illinoisan's- failure to
be elected a member of the committee
from his state. Hinrichsen was certain
of election as chairman. He had a ma
jOrity of the members pledged to his
candidacy, among them Osborne, King,
Ferguson, Smith and all the Pacific
coast members but Mcclure of Califor-
MIA. Osborne was devoted adherent
of Hinrichsen, and says he lost the Hi.
nois membership by men breaking their
pledges. There is a strong sentiment in
favor of taking the craftsmanship away
from the senate and from the east,
which will operate strongly in Osborne's
favor if he enters the race.

The Conference Report.

The Confer ence Committee on the
war revenue bill has agreed upon the
matters in dispute and the re-
port has been submitted to the Sen
ate and House. The bill rs amend
ed by the Senate provided for the
coinage Of the silver seigniorage at
the rate Of not less than S4,000,00r
per month until the whole amount in
the Treasury is coined. This amend
ment, with others, went to the Con-
ference Committee and rs usual sill
YER got it in the neck. The confer
ence Export, which will undoubtedly
be adopted by both branches of Con-
gress, provides as follows:
That the Secretary of the Treasury
is hereby authorized and directed to
coin into standard silver dollars as
rapidly as the public interests may
require, to an amount, however, Of
not less than one and one-half million
dollars per month, of the silver bull
lion now in the Treasury, purchased
in accordance with the provisions of
the Act approved July IA, 1890, en-
titled Gan Act directing the pur.
chase OF silver bullion and the issue
OF Treasury notes thereon, and for
other purposes" and said dollars,
when so coined, shall be used when
applied in the manner and for the
purpose named in said Act.
The amount of bonds was also
compromised, being placed at $780,

BICYCLE HEARTS.
HyDertroDhy, a New Disease, Caused
By Excessive Riding OF
the wheel. ~

Several well-known French cyclists
have lately, il is said, been rejected as
unfit for military service by reason of
hypertrophy and other diseases of the
heart. Medical men will be rather sur
prised that the numbers are so small.
There must be few of us who have not
seen the i'll effects of overexertion on a
bicycle. The commonest is palpitation
and temporary dilation; but even this
is sometimes very difficult to cure. In
a case which occurred recently q lady,
ordered for fortnight's change of air
after influenza, chose to spend it in BIZ
cycling about so miles day. AS re-
suit she has had ever since that time
now nine months ago-a pulse which on
the least exertion rises to 12O, though
she has not ridden again. That tempo
rary dilation occurs is enough to show
the great strain put upon the heart, and
1T is an added danger that the sense of
fatigue in the limbs is so slight. The
rider is thus robbed of the warning to
which he is accustomed to attend, and
repeats or continues the strain upon
the heart. AS in other similar cases.
the effect is to render that dilation per-
manent which was at first but tempo
rary and to cause an increase in the
muscle of the heart by repeated exer-
ion. The heart produced is of large d.
mansions and of thick walls-a condi-
ton which may, perhaps. give little IN
easiness to its owner, but which med
ical man will view with considerable
distrust and apprehension. Weakly and
elderly nnnn1a he -
that no exercise is more easily abused,
though if taken in sensible measure few
are more healthful or enjoyable.

Monitors of '81.

Curious Pan-cakey-looking vessels
were the ironciads that bombarded
Charleston in the late unpleasantness:
That bombardment was regarded as
something unspeakably dreadful in it's
day. The monitors that performed it
are now being put in shape at League
island, near Philadelphia, to assist the
new monitors in making SPANS fleet
disappear. There are six big turreted
monitors in the American navy, any
one of which naval experts declare able
to give terrific battle to any two of
SPANS warships. Many naval officers
have more faith in these than in any
other defense that the United States
has.

Is at Paris. II this can not be

that the representatives OF spain may
make aglnst them"

not TO govern themselves, there was no
nation they woul dmore prefer to be
governed and controlled by than the
United states. The provisional govern.
ment is now supported almost unsni-
mously not only in Luzon. but by the
