Results In Kansas.

TOPEKA, Kan, April 5.-The elections
held throughout the state yesterday
have been very quiet and partisan lines
were not sharply drawn and local in
dependent issues predominated. Spe-
cials to the Capital from so small towns,
while showing Republican victory in
most cases, emphasize the condition
stated. In Topeka the entire Repub-
lican ticket is elected by 1000 majority
In Kansas City, Kan, the Indications
are that the normal Republican plural
ity has been overcome and that Mayor
Marshman. the Republican candidate,
has been defeated for reelection by
Buchelter, the Democratic candidate.

Elections In Michigan.


tions in Michigan have not shown any
marked change in the political complex
ion of the state, which is normally Re-
publican, but the result shows quite
heavy Democratic gains in some Of the
larger cities, notably so in Detroit,
Grand Rapids, Saginaw, Jackson and
Kalamazoo. On generally light vo,'
the Republicans hold their own in the
smaller cities and throughout the rural
districts. Circuit judges were reelected
in 36 judicial districts. Of these, about
two-thirds of the new judges, who are
elected for six-year terms, are Repub-
licans.
The Republicans re.elect Judge Claud-
ius B. Grant as justice of the supreme
court by majority Of at least 10000.
They also elect Henry s. Dean and Eli
R. Sutton regents Of Michigan univer-
sity by somewhat greater majorities.
Thomas E. Barkworth, Democratic can
didate for justice, ran nearly 5000
ahead Of Judge Grant in Wayne
county (Detroit) and Grant only re-
ceived 1000 plurality in Kent county
Grand Rapids, which in recent years
has shown heavy Republican majorities.

GEN.EAGbN'S QUEER CONDUCT
Continued from First Page.

results such as had been forced upon him
by this court.
He had been accused of a heinous crime,
and in his statement to the investigating
committee had defended his honor and in
nocence, as he had a perfect right to do,
but using stronger language. perhaps,
than he should a used.
Mr.. Worthington next quoted from au-
thorities to show that to convict the ac-
cused of conduct unbecoming an officer
and a gentleman, the offense must be such
that any brother officer who should, after
his conviction, take him by the hand or
be on intimate terms with him., would
have been disgraced thereby and render
himself unfit to associate with gentlemen
and men of honor. The endorsements of
several high reviewing officers in the L. S.
army on the findings of c-ourtmartials
were quoted as showing that the offense
must be exceptionally heinous and such
as would unfit the accused Tor association
with right thinking men. One case was
that of an officer who struck another who
was a cripple and called him a liar. Gen.
Sherman who reviewed this case disap-
proved the findings of dismissal of the
court and said in effect that this penalty
should not be imposed except the offense
untitled the perpetrator for the society of
gentlemen, and while he regarded the ac-
ton of the officer as properly subjecting
Inn to a severe penalty, yet the extreme
penalty of dismissal should not be i'm
posed. The findings were disapproved.
Counsel reviewed at length the testi-
mony which had been given tending to
show that Gen. Eagan's mind was so SER
iously affected by the accusations which
had been made against him that his
feared that he would go out upon the
street and shoot Gen. Miles on sight. He
was no longer himself and could no longer
control his feelings or his actions.
In concluding his address, which lasted
over an hour, Mr.. Worthington made a
strong Plea for the accused. asserting that
through his whole controversy he had
conducted himself as an honest man,
goaded to desperation ~ the cruel and I'M
just accusations of his superior officer.
Col. Davis. the judge advocate, closed
the argument, and as he concluded at 1:30
o'clock. Gen. Merritt declared the case
closed and ordered the room to be vacated
by all except members Of the court.

Governor Atkinson has RENTED the

Der, 1897, of selling patent medicines

quacks and quackery are interesting.
The Governor says:
"He thought he was doing right in

physicians than l am myself. We have
a good law to inhibit quackery in the
medical profession, but | cannot be-

GREAT SCOTS SPEECH.
WetZel

Wetzel Democrat.
We refer to the speech after receiving
the Republican caucus nomination 1t
was a s'peach.'' We find it in the Herald,
that brightest and best of the Republican
newspapers of the Capital City. We Sc
lect a few gems. The careful reader will
find them entertaining:
Gem No. but l assure you that this
renewed expression of your confidence,
manifested by your selecting me tonight
as your caucus nominee for the United
States Senate, has convinced me that my
career as a citizen of your State for over a
quarter of a century, and l have always
been loyal to my party is more to me, L
assure you, than my election to the
United States Senate"
Now then, Of what is Mr.. Scott con-
Vllced: he IS convinced that his career
as a citizen OF West Virginia for twenty
ilVe years. That is all there is to that. he
is furCher convinced that he has always
been loyal to his party. He is therefore
convinced that these two things, whatever
they are, when taken together are more
20 MN than his election to the United
states Senate.
Gem No. ~ only hope, gentlemen. to
be able to demonstrate 10 YOU in the fu-
ture, as l have in the past, that l am a
republican; that my word, l hope, is
good
LIS IS a pfdCllcdl illustration OF what
Is meant by hoping against a hope
Gem No. 3 (tne nnes):-"I have done
aught in this campaign or during this
canvass in the last two weeks that |
would not have written on any blazoned
board in the city OF Charleston"
blaZoned board is great. Blu gem
NO. / is an evidence of the essential mod
esty OF this great parsonage. Il assure
you that there is not a man in the United
states who will more heartily congratu-
late me upon this election to the United
states Senate than your President, Viii
liam Mckinley"
Is this the best the Republican party of
West Virginia can do? Are there not
within the party lines in the State one
thousand men far better qualified for the
position of United States Senator than
thls unlettered accident of gold mine poll
tics? If not, the party ought to send out
ana get them, almost anywhere. OF what
poss.ple use can such a man be to the
country as a member of the of the Ma
Gonal Senate? 1t only means that Mr..
Elkins can hereafter write the figure 2
after his name every time he votes. The
men who have secured the election for this
disqualified, perhaps well intentioned, but
egostistlcal person are, some of them, men
they have personal ends to attain by Mr..
SCOTS promotion. Such d man as he is
suits these people better than Judge Golf
would have done. He will scheme for
OFFICES and appointments for his friends:
ne Will contribute money to campaign
funds, and it is all that he can do. In
the Senate chamber he will sit like a bump
on a log, looking tough, but gradually go
ing to decay.

PEACE TREATY.

rhe Senate Devotes Three Hours in Execu-
tive Session to Its Consideration.
Washington, January 27.-The Sen
ate continued the consideration of the
peace treaty in executive session to-
day, the doors being closed for almost
three hours.
Senator Frye, a member of the Paris
peace commission, and naturally a
strong friend of the treaty, held the at
tention of the Senate during the
greater part of this time. Consecu-
lively he occupied the floor during the
entire session, out he was frequently
interrupted by other Senators. Most
OF these Interruptions came in the way
of questions, but some of them took
the form of speeches. This was not
ably the case with Senator Berry's in
terruptions. He spoke for some time,
and in doing so denounced the treaty in
severe terms. Senators Mason and CAT
fiery asked many question.
Senator Frye devoted himself largely
to an explanation of the proceedings
of the commission, reading literally
from the record as already printed, but
stopping as he proceeded to explain the
quotations which he made.
Mr.. Frye devoted the principal por-
ton of his speech outside of the read
ing of the report, to an explanation of
why the Philippine archipelago was
included in the cession to the United
States. He was asked the question
why those islands were not placed in
the same class as Cuba. the SOW
ereignty over this island being merely
relinquished while in the case of the
Philippines, it had been made over to
the United States, and replied that the
difference was made because in the
case Of Cuba the commission was act
ing under instructions from Congress.
He was reminded that the Filipinos
protested to be fighting for freedom
just as the Cubans were, and that they
were still contending for their own in
dependence.

4 TIN Trust
Enters Into a Scheme Looking to the

PITTSBURG. Pa. January N.-The Dis
patch tomorrow will say that an import
ant contract has been contaminated by
the American Tin Plate Company, which
is expected to nave an important bear
ing on the trade, and has for one of its
objects the stoppage of outside COMPETE
ton.
The deal consists of a ive-year contract,
dating from January 1, 1880. to December
81, 1901, whereby the combine agrees to
take the entire output of tin mill machin-
cry made by six local foundry firms, who
make practically all of the tin mill ma
chinery of the country The firms who
AVE entered the compact are:
The Mesta Machine Company, Mackin-
tosh, Hemphill & Co., Totten & Hogg 1. &
S. Foundry Co, Lewis Foundry & Ma
chine Co, A. Garrison Foundry Co., and
Frank-Kneeland Machine Co.

Frye retorted that it was the oppo-
sition which was forcing a continu-
ance of the state of war. and which
would be responsible for hostilities if
they should occur. As for himself,
however, he did not know the Fill
pinos in the transaction. The treaty
should have been ratified ten days ago,
and if it had been, all danger of war
with the people of the Philippine
Islands would have been averted.
Senator Berry, in his speech, de-
clared that the acquisition of the
islands was merely a speculative
scheme, containing more Of the ele-
ment of land grabbing than of patriot
ism or philanthropy.

real rulers, who will have their sover-
eign will obeyed in the end. And in
working to thai end and in disposing of
faithless servants they are quiet, but
terrible in their judgment and ruthless
in its execution.
You neglected THE PEOPLE in
your management of the city's affairs,
gentlemen of the ring. You held them
Of no consequence, but to be cajoled,
hoodwinked and voted like sheep at
the crack of your whips at the polls;
you laughed at them and defied them
and went on your career of running the
departments of the city, not in the in
terests of THE PEOPLE, but in the
interests of your own selfish personal
ambitions and greed. And when you
took that course, gentlemen of the
ring, you might as well have discharged
your ward-heelers, thrown their poll
sheets, lists" and tabs into the river
and smashed the machine, for THE
PEOPLE were bound to visit condign
punishment on your heads for your
faithlessness to their interests.
1t was THE PEOPLE, gentlemen OF
the rirg, THE PEOPLE, that did it.
Nothing else.

eminent of THE PEOPLE-but you
