BLACKBURN MAY WAIT
SENATE PROBABLY WILL INvEsT1-
GATE THE KENTUCkIAN's CASE.
Operation OF the Goebel Law Likely to
BE Probed-CIark Seeking Vim
dication for Welcome.

WASHINGTON. Nov. III. c. s. Black
burn, who recently was reelected to the
United States Senate by the Kentucky
Legislature, may never take his seat In
that body. The right to his seat will be
inquired into thoroughly and the method
used in securing his election probed to the
bottom. Blackburn owes his election to the
operations of the Goebel law, which Is OBJ
jectionabIe to all Republicans. While no
definite plan has been agreed upon by the
Republican members of the Senate to bar
out the Kentuckian, they will make sure
that Mr.. Blackburn Is entitled TO his seat
before he Is allowed to take the oath of Of
fee. This was evidenced when his creden-
tials were presented to the Senate before
the last session of Congress came to a
close. AT that time they were referred to
the committee on privileges and elections,
which will conduct the investigation.
1t would be a hard matter to form a
plan among the Republicans or any other
party to bar out a man who holds the Gre
term In the Senate. The United States Sem
always investigates election case thor
oughly before arriving at a conclusion.
This has been shown by the Clark case,
which was probed TO the bottom. While
Senator-elect Blackburn may never again
enter the Senate, the denial of a seat to
him will not be through a combination
against him, but upon facts developed at
an investigation which shows he was not
elected honestly

AN EMPRESS ATTACKED
DETAILS OF THE ASSAULT ON THE
CONSORT OF JAPAN'S RULER.
Effort of Crazy Man to Attract At
tentiOn-Two Kodak Fiends Ar
rested by Japanese.

VICTORIA, B. c., Nov 14.-Advices by
mail from Yokohama say the chief sensa-
ton of the week has been the attack by
lunatic upon the carriage of the Empress
as the latter was being escorted through
the streets of Toxic. The incident was
Lotable only from the extraordinary char
acter of the weapons used, and also the ad-
ditional evidence il furnished, If anything
were needed, to testify to the great rev.
erence and affection her Majesty is held
by the people Mere rumor of the attack
before the actual facts were known caused
q tremendous amount of excitement
the city out of all proportion to the impor-
lance of the affair itself. The crazy as
sailant, having brooded over his lowly
birth until he imagined himself of the
imperial lineage, had applied in vain at
the imperial household department to have
his claim recognized. He determined to
attract public attention in some way,
which he succeeded in doing in the most
effective way by throwing his purse and
then his wooden clogs at the passing pro-
cesSion.
The perils accompanying the use of the
kcdaks by foreigners in Japan was illus
trated by q recent incident. Among the
first kilograms received by Baron Kaneko,
the newly appointed minister of justice,
or his accession to Office was one from
Shimoneseki, announcing that two young
men named Burden and Winthrop. belong
ing to Boston families of the highest re-
spectability, had been arrested in the act
of taking photographs in the vicinity of
the fortification there and asking for in
structions as to what should be done with
them. The minister of justice. VINO. as
president of the Harvard Club, had only
a few evenings before entertained the Bos-
tonians at a dinner of the club, and could
therefore vouch for their not peing for
eign spies. at once wired orders for their
immediate release.
The new Ministry is looked upon with
the greatest interest and favor by for
without
favorably disposed toward the latter than
any which has been in power for some
years past.
New regulations of the Home Depart
ment i'm regard TO the social evil and
famous ''yoshiwaras" is having such ex-
traordinary and unexpected effect that 1T
is confidently predicted that this peculiar
feature of Japanese life will soon disap-
pear from the larger cities.

PLAGUE IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Eighteen Deaths Oficially Reported
from March z to Oct. IA.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1.-THE Bulle-
tin publishes the report of Federal Quar-
antine Officer Kinyoun, in which he states
that from March to Oct. IA, there have
been eighteen deaths in San Francisco
from plague. The Bulletin says that it
is well known that there has not been a
single authenticated case of plague in San
Francisco. DR.. j. NJ. Williamson, of the
San Francisco Board of Health, says there
have been twenty-one or twenty-five cases
of bubonic plague in this city since the
first case was discovered last March. The
last case was reported on Nov. 3. The
disease has been confined almost entirely
To the Chinese quarter and all but two or
three of those afflicted were dead when
they were reported to the health depart
ment Local quarantine was at once es-
tablished over the places where the deaths
occurred and every precaution taken to
prevent the spread of the disease. Since
the first discovery by the local Board of
Health last March of what they called the
Plague, the San Francisco newspapers
have insisted that the health officials were
mistaken. Statements were obtained from
physicians in which they said that the
Chinese said to have died of plague suf-
fered from blood diseases, the symptoms
of which had been mistaken by the Health
Board as those of the plague.
