EX-SENATOR INGALLS,.

Invariably denied by the senator, who did
not consider his case hopeless by any
means and only two months ago planned
to return to Atchison.
After consultation of physicians he
decided, however, to remain in New Mex

Las Vegas. On Aug. 4 she telegraphed
her sons Ellsworth and Sheffield that
their rather was sinking. They arrived
in time to see him before he died.
sketch of Ingalls, Career.
Ex-senator John James ingalls, was
one of the foremost figures in American
politics while he served in the higher
house from 1873 to 1891. He was born
at Middletown, Mass. Dec. 20. 1888, and
was educated at Williams college. He
was admitted to the bar in 1887 and a
year later moved west, settling in Kan
sas. where he at once made name.
Until 1873, when he was elected to the
senate Mr.. Ingalls, was not prominent
politically, but on his going to Washing
ton at once launched himself into the po-
litcal arena SO irrcsistibly that his power
was undisputed for years afterward.
As Il senator he was ono of the most
pyroteehnical figures in American poll
tics. During the Whole Of his Is years
service he was called the most brilliant
and distinguished member of the senate
eyer sent from wcst Of the Mississippi.
He was always radical Republican
partisan, but as president of the senate
for wears gave impartial satisfaction to
the Democratic members as well rs his
own party mon,
Mr. ingalls, was a gifted orator and
was at his hest when in quarrel. He
delighted in the aggressive and fought his
battles to the dcath His inpective in
debate was almost blOodthirsty, his sharp
arrlignment of Grover Cleveland and the
administration Of 1SS9-93 being most sen
sational.
Mr.. Ingalls, election to the senate is a
matter of history. lie succeeded S. G.
Pomeroy, and Pomeroy was defeated by
a legislator named York, who accepted
$1,000 for his vote and who mt the time
the vote was being taken arose, exposed
Pomeroy and handed the money to the
speaker of the legislature. After this
expose there was no legislator who had
the nerve to vote for Pomeroy, though
many of them had his money in their
pockets. ingalls, was the next leading
candidate, and .he was elected.
In early life Mr.. Ingalls, father intend
ed his boy should follow his own business
of shoe selling. The boy refused to sell
shoes and after much persuasion induced
his father to let him study law. He was
at college with James A. Garfield.

POLITICS AT SARATOGA
Meeting Of the New York State Demo-
cratic Committee.
THE CONVENTION CALLED.
Saratoga Selected as the Place and
X Sept. II the Date-Gossip of the
GubernatoriaI Contest-NIncIk-
ey's Friends Hopeful.

Saratoga, Aug. 16.-No Democratic
committee meeting in years has called
forth such an attendance of politicians
snot directly connected with the committee
as the one now being held here. Wheth-
er ii is the prospect of fight over possi-
BILE nominees, or whether it is general in
terest in the campaign is hardly to be
determined.
State Committeeman Norman Il. Mack
and those with him in charge of the
Mackey boom have new plan which
4 sthey think will eifectually stop the Colcr
boom. 1t is to pin Mr.. Coler, or, for that
matter, any candidate who may be mem
fti0nud, down to an Endorsement of the
&silyer plank of 1896 and refuse TO accept
any candidate who will not il.lorse that
Apank. Mr. Mackey indorsed it in 1896
land stands for it now.
The activity of Mr.. Croker about the
4 hotel corridors was one Of the noticeable
features of the gathering. He was about
early, shaking hands and chatting with
Z the various leaders and not making any
\ distinction in the factions. Mr.. Hill
remained in his room, and his adherents
were rather conspicuous by their absence
from the corridors.
Albany Defers to Saratoga.
just before the executive committee
met, William b. Jones, representing the
Albany chamber of commerce, announced
n that, having looked thoroughly over the
D ground, they had come to the conclusion
\ that the sentiment was so great in favor
of Saratoga as the place in which to
y hold the state convention that it would
\ be an injustice TO Albany's supporters to
Fcompel, them to vote for Albany and that
Y the city would not present its claims.

man Campbell at the place of the meeting
of the executive committee and took a

The offer of the Republicans

upon the announcement that
the Union Republican mama

for the three principal officers

ticket. In spite of the promises
made the National Convention
Philadelphia that the Repub
Iicans would elect their ticket
in the state, and the further
promise that every effort would
be made to bring about har-
mony OF action on the part of
all Republicans in this state,
the Union Republican organi-

ment in the Union Republican

Chairman Mcclure had told of his

Senator Hill left the meeting few
minutes before the others and went back
to his room. The other members, incud-

where the state committee was scheduled
to meet and for quite a while stood about

up Senator Mackey as the up state candi-

at present he favored an open field and
added:

ton shall have the first choice
of all the nominations to be
made, the minority the first
choice of all the remainder; and
thus i'll an alternate manner
until all the nominations are
completed:
That the question Of the cleo
ton of two Senators to the SEN
ate of the United States shall be
disposed Of by the adoption of
one or the other Of the two fol-
lowing propositions;
First: That each faction shall
have uudisputed choice to the
election Of Senator.
Or, second: That the voters Of
each Senatorial and Representa-
tive District shall, by a majority
rule, nominate their respective
Legislative candidates; that loyal
support shall be given the same
by all Republicans without re-
gard to past factional divisions,
and that the whole question of
the election of Senators to the
Senate of the United States shall
be left to the Legislature itself
when assembled without prior
reciprocal obligations or pledges
of any kind upon the members
thereof as to their disposition Of
the matter:
That, if the foregoing propo-
sitions should seem to be unfair,
in that it is denied that the ma
jority of the Republicans of this
State are affiliated with the
Union Republican party, and
that the foregoing propositions
are therefore a covert attempt to
gain political advantage that
could not be had by an appeal to
the people, l am authorized and
directed to make a further propo-
sition:
That all the foregoing propo-
sitions be laid aside, that COM
mon primary for delegates to a
State Convention with equality
Of representation in the several
Representative Districts under
the Constitution be held by the
Republican voters of this State,
and that ticket be nominated
by said convention solely by the
will of the majority, and if adj

party to pledge loyal support Of
all Union Republicans to the
election Of an entire ticket thus
nominated.
