That Ohio Has Only One Senator, Now.
'r2 Tho Contention Refntcd. q.
tlcoLuMBus. o.. Jan. 1O.--In the sem
ate to-day q message was received from
Governor Bushnell. officially advising
the senate OF the resignation OF John
Sherman as senator, for the term ending
March ., 1899. and of the appointment OF
Marcus A. Hanna to fill the vacancy.
Although the unexpired senatorial
term of,Sherman ended March 4. 1899.
Senator Hanna was appointed last
March TO serve only till the legislature
met In January. 1898. as the governors IS
nppolntee under. the law can serve only
until the legislature meets. lis claim
ed, therefor, that Ohio has had only one
senator the past week. md will have
only one till there Is an election for the
short term from January, 1898. till March,
1899.
Senators who have examined the pre-
cederts say that the appointment of a
senator by the governor, as IN the case
OF Senator Hanna. holds until the legis-
slature elects or adjourns. Congress hav-
Ing provided by law that a legislature
cannot elect until after It has been in
session two weeks would provide for q
vacancy II the appointee OF the governor
held only until the legislature met. In
the past senators appointed by the gov
ernor have held their offices until the
legislatures have chosen their successors.
In one case a senator held through an
entire deadlock in the Legislature and
tried to retain his seat when the legisla-
ture adjourned. but after the matter was
discussed in the senate the seat was de.
clared vacant on an adjournment OF the
legislature. .-e.a.L ~ Z l.., J. s 49,

day ordered the court room cleared so

e Fixe minutes afterwards, Winchester
rifles in from. Of the court, in the hands
OF Pat and Eliza Langford, were firing
at eI-Jailor William Mullins and his
friends. Several revolvcrs replied from
various quarters. Those injured By the
sLangfords were C. j. King, who re-
celved two bullets through the thigh,
considered dangerous: William Mullins,
shot through both hands. The Lang
fords- claim 1t was an accident In
shooting King. All the participants
were Jailed. including eX-Debuty Sher-
in Reuben Mullins, who was some
distance away when the shooting OPEN
ed, drew his pistol and fired at the
Langsords until they disappeared.
In the court room when the Shooting
occurred Hundley thought his father
had been killed, seized the gun OF a
guard and attempted 10 rush to the
: fray. 1t required six mer to hold him.
The trouble originated during the last
campaign when 4 number of leading
Republicans bolted the ticket as no,n(-

made q speech In the house to-day in
advocacy OF the absolute repeal OF the
civil service law, for the reason, as he
stated in his Introductory remariss, that
he believed the fundamental principles
OF the law are un-American and fraught
with danger to the republic. He does
not regard n declaration In favor OF
civil service reform as an approval OF
the law as II Is now enforced, and he is
weary, he says. Of the contention so
often made in Congress and elsewhere
that the Republican party is irreyocably
committed to the maintenance OF the
law In It's present shape. Ifexperience
has taught that the law IS wrong, It
Is q duty to.repeal 1t. (,
"rhe American Idea has always been,
until this foreign system was thrust
upon US, that this is the peoples gov
ernment; that when an officer Is chosen
by the people. and Is responsible for his
acts to the people. he should have a
right to select his subordlnates. for
whose acts he Is In turn responsible.

dent down. and install those who re-
celve the highest percentage. There Is

There has been nothing strikingy new

Gates general apathy of speculation

the crop should meet with injury during
this the most critical month of the

Iation in the Summer months. While
some of the trade scout the idea of any
thing like squeeze, they nevertheless
refrain from selling. There seems to he
no doubt that the crop has been benefit
