IOtalS lQ2

Word came to Chicago to-day that
Payne, New York's aspirants for the
speakership, will withdraw from the
contest in few days, thus making
Colonel Henderson's election unani-
nous.
When Colonel Hendersons mail and
kilograms showed he had passed the
majority with votes to spare. he sent
word to his colleagues of the Iowa del
egation, telling them there was no need
to hold the caucus in Des Moines, which
had been called for tomorrow to lay
plans for vigorous campaign. He was
assured of his election and was in a
position to take his ease and receive
congratulate tions. These were showered
on him. They came in the mails and
over the wires and We're accompanied
by extended hands at the Union
League club and in his rooms at the
Auditorium annex.
The Henderson campaign for the
speakership is record breaker. 1t
really began in Atlantic City, where the
house committee of is republicans
named in caucus to frame a monetary
bill met few weeks ago. Thomas B.
Reed at that time permitted some of
his intimate friends to disclose the fact
that he was, to retire from the house.
Colonel Henderson was chairman of the
monetary commission and it was sug-
gested that he would be the right man
to put in the speakers chair. Colonel
Henderson said to-day:
Il am elected beyond doubt, for I
have more than the required number
of votes now, and 1 sit here in this
chair with the knowledge that l have
not made a single pledge, have not
made a single promise of committeeship
and what is more, have not been asked

SCHLEY IN CHICAGO.
The Man Who Makes No Mistakes Makes
No War

Chicago, June 4.-Rear Admiral Schley
left for New York this afternoon accom-
panied by Mrs. Schley. A crowd assem-
bled at the station in anticipation of his
departure, and committees from the Ham
iton club Union League and Loyal Lee
gon were on hand to say goodbye.
The last public function rendered the
admiral was a luncheon at the Union
League at noon. John S. Miller, president
of the club, presided and among those
present were Congressman David B.

master: Charles u. Gordon and General

Comte Bonl de Castellane and his
brother, Jean, were arrested but soon
liberated.
Comte de Dion when arrested resist
ed, and fought with his cane, smash
ing it on a policeman's head. He was
detained in custody. Altogether, about
$50 arrests were made. one being that
of NJ. Dansette, deputy mayor of Ar
mentieres.
Demonstrations and counter demon
strations continued until M. Loubet left
the race course at APO p. M, the ar
rival of his carriage being the signal
for an indescrbable tumult. The
mounted guards with difficulty opened
a passage through the cowd. the presi-
dent being pursued to the last with
boots and yells. Even eggs were
thrown.
1t was noteworthy, however, that the
people generally cheered him loudly, the
cheers increasing as he drove toward
the Elysee, which he reached safely at
4:45 p. m.
Comte Christiano was thrown down,
trampeled upon and severely bruised
in the melee. He is grandson of a
general who was well-known during
the empire
1t seems that it was intended to give
the Marchand mission a big ovation.
The government got wind of the affair
and kept Marchand out of the way, al
though Captain Braterriere and the
other members of the expedition were
there. The de Rouledeists, baked of
their opportunity, evidently vented
their spite upon the president.
The race course committee apologized
to M. Loubet, who replied that he could
not think of holding them responsible.
He remarked to an important person
age that he did not intend being in
timidated into resigning.
During the demonstration NJ. Roche
fort, editor of Intransigeant, was seen,
and an attempt was made to induce
him to lead the manifestation, but he
discreetly slipped away.
Most of the persons arrested repre-
sent some of the best families In
France. Comte Chrstiano is held on
the charge of attempting to strike the
president. Comte D'Aubigny is charged
with wounding Police Inspector Grill
liere and another policeman.
AT a late hour this evening many in
fuential persons sought to obtain the
release of the aristocratic prisoners, but
the prefect of police refused all such
requests and removed the prisoners to
cells.
Inspector Grilliere, who was hit in the
neck by a loaded cane, was carried
away insensible. and now lies in dan
gerous condition.
1t is asserted that the presidents hat
was pressed down over his face by
Christianos stick and that the occu-
pants of the carriage were hit with
eggs while returning to the Elysee.

1T WAS PREMEDlTATED.
The League of Patriots Led the Attack
Upon Loubet.


Upon Loubet.
Paris, June At was premeditated
riot that took place to-day on the
weighing ground of the Auteuil race
course. The object of the rioters was
to insult President Loubet and, perhaps,
in the heat of factional fight, to get
rid of him. The state tribune was in
vaded by number of swells. One of
them, Baron Christians, raised his cane
to strike the president with all his
might. The blow was averted byGeneral
Balloud, and the cane descending on
NJ. Loubet's hat, crushed it down, fore
ing it over his face like a candle eX
tinguisher
Nine. Balloud tainted. Christians was
beaten black and blue by the gentle
men around the president and carried
away by six policemen, he kicking and
plunging and the blood spouting from
his nose.
One hundred and thirty arrests were
made within the grounds. Most of those
taken up were society gentlemen.
M. Loubet had been forewarned of
plot to insult and assail him, and in
stead of driving to the races alone he
drove with the premier, M. Dupuy, and
General Balloud, Nine. Loubet follow
ing him with two ladies in another car
riage.
The news that Major Marchand had
been sent from Paris annoyed the
crowds. but the common people We're
decently behaved all the way to the
race course; and it was only when the
presidential carriage entered the weigh
ing ground that the row began.
Comte de Dion gave" the signal in
front of the presidential tribune. He
was promptly arrested, but his, arrest
served as an excuse to his friends to cry
Down with Panama" Resign"
Down with traitors, Jews and Drey
fusites."
The windows on the ground floor of
the presidential tribune were broken
and several ladies in the presidents
party upstairs tainted. After the first
race M Loubet pale and greatly cut
up, but firm, retired.
large body of police and members
of the Republican guard had hard work
In protecting him and the president
finally took his carriage out of the en-
closure.
Riotous fellows, posted in groups
along the way to the Elysee, kept on
insulting the president.
Nine. Loubet remained to the end of
the races. She burst into tears on
learning by telephone that her husband
was safe back in the palace.
A stormy sitting is expected to-mor-
row in the chamber of deputies.

CANADA'S CASE.
viii Publish Her Side of the boundary
Dispute.

Ottawa. Ont, June 4-The Canadian
government has been notified by the
imperial government that they can pub
lish the protocol in reference to the
Alaskan boundary. The contention of
the Canadian authorities is that when
the protocol becomes public it will be
seen that the contention in the press
dispatches from Washington and New
York that Canada was the obstacle Of
arbitration will be dissipated. What
Canada offered to do was to refer the
question to arbitration the same as was
the Venezuelan question. The United
States refused to do so unless it was
first admitted that Dyea and Ukaguay
and the strip of territory at the Lynn
canal were iii United States territory.
Canada objected to these conditions
What Canada wanted was an uncondi-
tiOnal reference of the whole case. The
United States also refused to agree upon
an umpire. so that in case of disagree
ment nothing would be settled. Canada
wanted a settlement, no matter who
was to win. Parliament will likely be
put in possession of the facts to-mor-
row,

AN AUTUMN LEAF.

Written for the Herald
Only scared brown Autumn leaf
Left by the wind at play;
One among many from out the wreath
OF relics of faded May.
Oh, thou who once in your dress o.
green
Waved in the summer breeze;
Thou, who vert then in your robes {
queen,
Art flung in hate from the trees.
Your royal robe is dark and old;
Your sovereign head bowed low;
Where is your crown of polished gold
Your throne of the long ago?
Where are your mobiles who hate to obey
Those whispered words of thine?
All! they like thee have fallen away
Their stars no longer shine.
At the return of springtime
Will others your scepter wave;
Into your hOnored seat will climb
You'll rest in an unknown grave.
How like art thou unto our life,
Thou leaf grown old and worn;
After our trouble, toll and strife
Our work remains unknown.
Others are found to take our face,
IT'S said they fill it better:
But ah, when soon is run their place,
Their glory, too, will shatter,

THE Methodists are having no
little trouble locating their preach
ers an delegates who are expected
to attend the Conference here on
the 18th. Neatly all the city and it's
suburbs have been canvasSed, and
but little more than half enough
homes have been promised. We are
surprised and disappointed at this.
Town pride, to say nothing of chris.
tian hospitality, ought to impel the
people to open their homes to such
an occasion. When MurfreesbOrO
and ClarksvillP, and even smaller
towns in the state have entertained
this body gladly and comfortably
and with homes to spare, what will
be thought of Columbia if we fail?
Not only that, but what will your
neighbors think Of you il you act in
so inhospitable manner; and more
than that what will you think of
yourself when the Conference comes
and good fellowship prevails and
the atmosphere il ladened with the
spiritual influence of the occasion,
and everybody and their guests are
attending and enjoying the meet
ings, the feeling of "peace on earth,
good will to ALL" pervading every
heart and home; how will you feel,
shut up in home all by yourself?
Perhaps you had better reconsider
for your own sake, and crowd your
family and inconvenience yourself
Just a little rather than to feel lone
some and selfish when others al
around you are happy, light-hearted
and free. 1t Is more blessed to give
than to receive, and hospitality hath
it's own reward.

10000 tons OF phosphate from this
tract of land for 81 10 per ton, all of
which was to be delivered by Aug. 9,
1899, and that this proposition was
accepted and the contract entered
into.
The bill further states that under
this contract the Mt. Pleasant Phos-
phate Co. delivered to cOmplainants
5,220 81 tons up to January %, 1899,
and that since then the defendants

IF there is ONE thing that makes
as more weary than anything else,
1t is the everlasting cant of the
Nashvi American and papers of
that ilk, telling about northern
capitalists refusing to come south
unless the people of some particular
locality will vote to suit them. Apt
as not it is all a manufactured yarn,
but just now they have it that
northern capitalists are watching
with intense interest the Nashville
mayoralCy election, and will give
that monopoly ridden city the grand
go-by unless the people vote to allow
the mOnopolies to ride them some
more. 1t is an insult to their readers
for southern journals to publish such
rot. Are we such hirelings that we
must write our ballots under the
dictation of the northern capitalists?
Shall the mOneycrats of the east
shape our politics and dominate
even our mayoralty contests? Are
the plutocratic snobs of New York
and Baltimore to march southern
freemen to the polls just as they do
their factory bands, like dumb
driven cattle? Has the south so
lost its pride and patriotism that a
| sheet subsidized to monOnolistic in
tsrests dares to hint or suggest such
a thing? We repeat, that such
threats, flung at US by penny-liners
in paid for interviews, is an insult
to southern readers, and should be
resented by every self respecting
southern man and woman.
