United States senate can command ma- jorty of the votes of both houses, and that the supporters of one of the democratic candidates refuse to go into party eau GUS. That would force an open vote in the joint session of the two houses and result in a deadlock with Howard holding the balance of power. I believe Howard had this in view when he finally made up his mind to enter the race for the United States senate.
 VIII Not Agree to Caucus
 "I have heard 1t stated by prominent democrats recently sllat the supporters of Governor Johnston in the legislature next winter will not agree ito a caucus nomina- tion for United States senator, but that they will contend for an open vote in the joint session of the two houses. This. course, 1t is true, could only be followed ip the event that neither Governor Joeln- ston nor Senator Morgan will have a ma- jority of the total vote of the general assembly.
 There will be 133 members of the iegis- iature, B senators and 100 representatives. A majority would be 67. Suppose there are twenty populsts and anti-democrats, and that neither Senator Morgan nor Governor Johnston can command as many 67 votes. With the bitterness existing be- tween the two factions the election of either, it appears to me, would be hope less, without the support of some anti democratic members If MT. Howard Is in position ito command a sufficient num- her Of-votes ito elect either tle will be prac- tscaaly in control of the situation, and if nor able to have himself elected, cael dic- tate terms with the successful man."
 Tb,s view was not concurred in by other democratic leaders, who say that Towards candidacy will not amount to much They say his strength at Montgomery next vim ter will not be strong enough to temrt either democratic faction and that the fialaf will ba settled by the democrats them selves
 Senator Morgans supporters are confi- dsrd of having more than a majority of the general assembly, while practically the same claims are made by Governor John stems friends

RIOT IS THREATENED AT COALBURC
 BETWEEN WHITE AND NEGRO MINERS
Blacks Seek to Avenge the Death ofa Fellow Miner Who Was Shot By an Unknown White Man-Meagre
 Details Reach the City

At an early hour this moaning news was received of a theratened riot between white and negro miners at Coalburg. The men are all armed and If the two forces clash 1t is expected that fataa results will fol- lcw.
 The telegraph operator at Coalburg left his office for fear of shots being directed towards the station lights, and no definite news could be gotten up to tine hour of going to press.
 It seems that tine trouble arose over the sudden death of John Moss, a negro miner He was found dead In one of the mines Tuesday, and 1t afterwards developed that an unknown white man had shot him.
 The news of the finding of Marf's body and the circumstances surrounding his death spread rapidly among the negroes and created much suppressed excitement which finally developed into open threats of ven- geance against the whites.
 The negroes, so it is said, began to arm lhemseves. and. according to reports which reached Coalburg, had planned an attack for last night.
 This report caused the whites to prepare for the attack, and almost every white man sn the town was under arms.
The age-herald., 1900-01-25

At o'clock the operator reported that he could count 13S armed white men be- tween his office and the nearest building and that he could not remain at his desk, fearing his light would form a target for the guns of the angry crowd.
 A Southern Railway conductor, whose train passed Coaaburg at an early hour this morning, stated that while he was in the yards at Coalburg five or six white men approached his train and demanded inforanation as to whether or not there wereN any armed negroes on nis train.
 According to the conductors report, the white men were armed with guns, pistols knives and clubs, and were very threaten ing.
 An effort was made to communicate with Coalburg by telephone. but proved un- successful, and 1t is supposed that parties in hearing were otherwise engaged.
 Sheriff O'Brien had heard nothing of the trouble up to o'clock, although he has a deputy located at the mines.
 The operator returned to his office shortly after 2 o'clock and reported that matters had somewhat quieted down, but that squads of armed negroes and whites were stalking around, and that serious trouble could be expected at any moment. ./S

THE PEOPLE DISAPPOINTED
Hung Around the War Office All Night Awaiting News

London, January 25.4:15 a. m.-The as- flee and those privileged to wait in the lobbies reluctantly dispersed at midnight, after the final word that nothing more would be announced. The informing papers went to press with conjectures and fore casts of all sonts, striving to guess out somedhing from Spion's kop. Topography maQs show that Spon's kop is the highest part of rocky plateau. Eastward for the Tugela- Nonlawestward from Spion's kop the plateau runs gradually up to a great spur of the Dralaensburg.
 General Buffers infantry, in order to reach the summit of Spion's kop must cross a hnatural glacis three-quarters of a mile wide and climb five hundred feet up steep slope.
 Nobody here seems to know, not even the war ofice what Lord Roberts has done with his large endorsements. Six thou sand troops awaited his arrival at Cape town, and since then six thousand others have reached there. Military critics are all hoping that a good share of these 12,O00 have gone to help General Butler, and they argue that a few days wait may make him strong enough to overcome the dead lock.

BOERS LOST HEAVILY
Warren Kept Up Continual Fire Dur
 ing the Day.

London, January 25.-The Daily Telegraph publishes the following dispatch from Spearsman's Camp, dated Tuesday, January 23, 9:30 p. m:
 On Monday Sir Charles Warren's force cannonaded and fusiladed the Boer posi- tions west of Spion's kop, near the Acton Homes road A lyddite battery company operated with the other batteries and MaSfms. Certainly the fire was effective, causing the enemy serious losses The Boers, however, clung desperately to their works, from which they are being slowly driven Today the enemy fired their guns oftener, using also the captured 14-pounders with shrapnel. Our casualties today were less even than those of yesterday
 Fighting began about o'clock in the morning and continued until datl1 but there has been nothing like a general engage ment. The naval big guns assisted from Potgieter's Drift in shelling the Boers' po- Sitions."

 "The Boers today had more guns and are prepared to fight almost interminably, having entrenched their ridge, which stretches in an almost unbroken line from Drakensburg many miles eastward.
 Firing continued throughout the day. We have not advanced any further, but We threw up entrenchments during the night, from behind which the musketry duel con- tinued from exactly the same position as yeSterday."
