the grandest ovation ever accorded
a political leader on the occasion of

severely. 1t became very much swol-

gave any relief until he began using

New York and Indiana.

In forecasting the result of the
coming election it may be well to
take into consideration the probable
outcome in the great States of New
York and Indiana, the former with
36 and the latter with Is electoral
votes.
Ever since the second election OF
Lincoln in 1864 those two States
have given their votes alternately to
the Republican and Democratic
party presidential nominees, and
just as regularly the candidates car
rying those states since 1872 have
been elected. Both of these states
went Republican in 1896, and in the
seven preceding elections gave their
votes as follows:
To Seymour over Grant in 1868.
To Grant over Greeley in 1872.
To Tilden over Hayes in 1876.
To Garfield over Hancock, 1880.
To Cleveland over Blaine, 1884.
To Harrison over Cleveland, 1888.
To Cleveland over Harrison, 1892.
To Mckinley over Bryan, 1896.
Next month, on the 9th, the vote
will be Bryan over Mckinley BY
about 100000

CASE OF SUICIDE.
Autopsy Held ON the Body of DIR.
Cooke, the Blind Musician.

BOSTON. April 13.--An autopsy on the
body of DR.. James r. Cooke, the blind
physician, found dead in his room last
night, performed by Medical Examiner
Harris and his assistant, Dr. Stedman, re-
suited in the disclousre that the ball passed
through the spinal column and lodged on
top of the brain, and confirmed the belief
that IL was a case of suicide. Mrs. Cooke to-
day made some additions to her previous
statements. She said that when she re-
turned from an errand downstairs the doc
tor, who was an expert on steel, as well
on some kinds of chemical preparations,
had a revolver in his hand. He told her
that he was examining the weapon to see
whether it was chilled or nickel steel. He
also told her, she says. that If a patient
whom he expected should call. he should be
told to call next day.
Partial substantiation seems to be given
to the report that DR.. Cooke was in some
way involved in transactions with the Rus
sian some other foreign government by
the declaration of Mrs. Cooke that the Wis
itor whom he expected yesterday afternoon
was an attache Of one Of the foreign lega-
tions in Washington. and he coming
to see the doctor in regard to the contracts
of some kind In which his government was
interested.

Mr.. Porter's health was seriously i'm

tack of illness. and since then he has been
at times relieved somewhat from the enor-
nous duties of his office; but failing to re-
gain his health, and believing that COM
plete separation from official cares is es-
sential to his speedy and permanent re-
ccvery, the secretary has been constrained
to tender his resignation. which the Presi-
dent has reluctantly accepted. His physi-
clans enjoin complete rest and change, that
he may have every facility for rapid i'm
provement.

BUTTE. Mont, April 13.-A special from
Washington to the Inter Mountain says:
''It is now certain that Senator Clark will
not resign. The pressure from his Montana
friends and legal advisers is in favor of
contesting to a finish. The Times this
morning says that Senator's Clay, Mason.
Bacon and Heitfeld will make a fight on
the floor of the Senate, claiming that a
two-thirds vote is necessary to unseat him.
They claim that the report of the commit
tee does not sustain the direct charge of
bribery against him. They will expose the
character and plans of his enemies. and he
will doubtless make speech in his own
behalf. This policy will prevent appoint
ment by the Governor. and may lead to the
election of two Republican senator's. so a
majority opposition to delay is not ex-
pected. Senator Mason will conduct the
fight for Clark. The latter has made no
statement"

NOT UNTIL MAY L.
Customs Feature of the Porto Rican
Law Is Not Yet Elective.

WASHINGTON, April 13-Secretary of
the Treasury Gage has decided that the
customs feature of the Porto Rico tariff
and governmental bill goes into operation
on the 1st day of May, 1901. This decision
was made necessary in view of dis
crepancy In the bill as to the time the act
should become operative.
This action was taken as the result of
conference at the treasury to-day between
Assistant Secretary Mekeljohn and Assist
ant Secretary Spalding. The War Depart
ment has been in receipt Of many inquiries
from persons in different sections OF the
country calling attention to the apparent
discrepancy in the Porto Rican act and
asking for official statement as to the
date when the duties will go into effect.
The conclusion arrived at applies to all of
the affairs of the island and the War De-
partment will retain complete control and
direction there until May l. It is expected
that Governor Allen will be in San Juan
before the end of the present month, but
he will not undertake to assume his Office
until the date named.
The Cabinet meeting to-day was occupied
largely in discussion of Porto Rican af-
which was signed by the President yester-
day. The provisions of the bill were care
fully gone over and suggestions were made
as to the personnel of the new administra-
ton of the island Secretary Gage has al
ready taken steps to assume charge of the
collection Of the customs duties and very
soon an expert will be designated to go
over the island and inspect the present
system with view TO making any changes
either in methods or personnel that may
seem necessary.
II is understood that no successor to Mr.
Allen as assistant secretary of the navy
will be made until Secretary Long returns
to Washington from Colorado and has had
an oportunity to express his preference in
the matter. The secretary is expected to
arrive here almost any moment. Mean
while the tide OF place-scekers has turned
upon Mr.. Aliens office and the White
House. some of the applicants not even
waiting for the Presidents signature to the
organic act before presenting their claims
for some post connected with the govern
ment of Porto Rico. The indications are
that no appointments will be made until
Mr. Allen has an opportunity to reach San
Juan and personally look into the condi-
tions there.
