SCOTSMAN'S CREW ARRESTED.
Sailors Who Robbed Passengers in
Jail in Montreal.

A dispatch from Montreal last night says
The list of the Scotsmans dead remained
unchanged at IL O'Clock tonight. Rev. DR..
Chalmers, the Congregational missionary
of Hong Kong, who was reported missing
last evening, has been located. He is on
hoard the Dominion line steamer Ottoman,
which arrived at Quebec this morning,
bringing Dr. Chalmers, four other passcn-
gers and tWenty-six of the Scotsmans
crew. The captain, the chief and second
and fourth officers still remain by the ship,
and 1t is supposed that all the passengers
and crew have been taken off Change Isl
and.
The feature of the day has been the ar
rest of twenty-three members of the Scots
man 5 crew. laden with plunder. They ar
rived in Montreal this morning on the
steamer MOutfOrt. On the wharf waiting
to receive them, We're twenty po ice Off
GERS. The policemen were kept concealed
until the gangways were alongside when
they suddenly swarmed on board and in "A
second had rounded up the Scotsmans
crew. 1t was done so quickly that the men
had no opportunity of rddins themselves
of any traces of guilt. Half dozen patrol
wagons were waiting alongside and into
these the sailors were hustled amid the
Jeers and Kisses of II large crowd which
had gathered.
Throw them into the river was the
cry that went up. Had it not been for the
presence of the police the threat would
probably have been carried into effect
The men were taken to the central DO
ice station and searched. When the search
ended there remained not the slightest
doubt of the stories of pillage and violence

Contest for the Alabama Senator
ship.
FIGHT ATTRACTING Wide ATTENTION
Trial OF Strength in the Legs
lature.
THE CANDIDATES. ESMENTIONED

The contest now going on in Alabama
John I. Morgan is attracting great interest
in administration circles, not only on &C
count of Mr.. Morgans long and conspicu-
Gus service in the Senate. but because Of
his prominence as a democratic supporter
OF the alleged imperialistic policy. While
March 3. 1901 the real contest will come
in the primaries which will be held in
December, and for that struggle forces are
now getting in readiness. Senator Morgans
principal competitor, so it Is believed, al
though not yet formally announced. is the
Johnston. His campaign is of the still
hunt variety. He will not openly announce
himself until he from the results at
the primaries whether he can be elected or
stands a good chance of election. 1t is
said that were the contest before the peo-
pie of the state Morgan would be an easy
winner, because of the traditional admira-
ton which Alabamians have for him. 1t
was he who made the canvass of the state
in 1874 and by his strategy and good gen
eralShip redeemed it from the carpet bag
gers. Two years later, as a reward, he
was elected to the Senate, and took his
Senator Hoar of Massachusetts entered
that body. Were the contest open one
between Morgan and the aggressive gov
ernor there would be little doubt as to the
result. Other conditions, however, must be
taken into account.

Johnston Defeats Morgan.

Johnston demonstrated last spring that
he held the legislature of Alabama in the
palm of his hand, so perfect was the polit-
ical machine which he had built up. 1t
will be reca LED that the legislature ordered
a constitutional convention for dealing with
the question of negro suffrage Everybody
seemed in favor of the convention includ-
ing Johnston, until it appeared that the
people in clecting delegates to it had Chus-
en- q large number of gold democrats or
men who had not been in sympathy with
the Bryan movement in their party. This
happened naturally enough. The people
picked out the men best qualified to repre-
sent them in a constitutional convention,
and this brought into prominence those
who had not been Stampeded by the free
silver clamOr. OF course, free silver had
state constitution. AS soon as Governor
Johnston discovered the fact he called the
legislature in session and asked it to repeal
the act establishing the constitutional con-
Ventlon. Senator Morgan, although "A strong
tree SILVER man, argued eloquently against
this move. as did nearly all the substantial
lawyers of the state. The question at issue
was not whether to have a convention, for
upon this al We're agreed, but whether
Palmer and Buckner democrats were by ma
ture worthy to be intruSted with a partici-
patton IN such a responsibility. Morgan's s
efforts We're fruitless. Johnston carried
both houses Of the legislature by con
siderable majority and The convention was
declared off. This shows the extraordinary
power which the governor had acquired
among the politicians. The question is
asked. Why will not he be able to do the
same thing with tht. scratOrship3

Johnston probably would be successful
in this if his campaign could be conduct I'd
quietly. If the people of the state become
aroused to the idea that it is Il question
Of Morgan or Johnston for the Senate they
will be likely to show their strength.
SinSuiafiy enough, the gold democrats of
The state are working for Morgan. In
connection with this. il is noted that Nor
gan gave out interview a few weeks
ago to the effect that there were other
democrats besides Bryan, inpyin, hat h..
should prefer to have one of them nomi-
mated. This caused the old gentleman a
good deal of trouble when he got back 10
Alabama. for the affection Tor Bryan is
IN that state a recognized test of tlem0-
cratic fealty. Morgan later came out with
another interview. in which he said that
lie was firmly convinced that Bryan was
The man above all others for the democrat s
to nominate and that he had no doubt of
Bryan's success. If Morgan should be
come too much identified with the gold
democrats by their offers of support and
by suspicion as to his loyalty to Bryan
the great rural vote might be lost TO him
