Washington, Oct. 5.-After all has been
said and done, it is doubtful, as matters
now stand, whether congress will accom-
plish anything this winter in the way of
reciprocity treaty ratification, or tariff re-
vision. This conviction is being forced
home upon nearly every member Of the
senate and the house who has been in
Washington during the past month or six
weeks. The strength of the New England
states in both houses of congress is so
great as to give that section the power to
prevent any sort of legislation which does
not meet its views; and New England is
strongly hostile to the reciprocity trea-
ties and to any changes in the Dingley
schedules.
This statement, which can now be made
With reasonable certainty, will surprise
the great west, where reciprocity sentiment
is very strong, Independently of party
lines, but it Is as we'll to face if now as
later on. From the gamblers point of
view, luG CuduCSS are at lOdSL nfO OuI VI
seven against congress doing anything
along the lines mentioned. There will
doubtless be a great deal of talk in both
houses, but talk isn't legislation. The
president is probably the only man in
high official life in the government who
fully appreciates the demand of the mid
ole west for reciprocity treaties, and it
is believed that his message to congress
will recommend them. But even presi-
Dental recommendation will not be suffi-
cient TO overturn the prejudices Of the
large manufacturing centers of the east,
whose special representatives the eastern
senators and congressman are. What will
come of the failure of congress to meet
the wishes of the west cannot be fore
east at this time. There will be bitter
disappointment, but whether it will take
a serious turn nobody knows. 1t is gem
orally believed here by those who have
given the question intelligent thought that

It's western members are not its leading
members, and will not be able to control
it's action. By combining with the demo-
cratic members they might report a bill,
but such a combination would work more
harm than good, and might actually result
in disrupting the republican organization
in the house and in the country.
So far as the reciprocity treaties are
concerned the chief trouble will be in Sc
curing the approval of New England SEN
ators such as Aldrich, Platt and Lodge.
These three men-and they are only part of
the total number of those who hold SINH

deep root in congress and making its au-

nour. It is likely that the Indiana gen

then subjected. He offended the older

SUPREME JUSTICE SHOT.
Tried to Prevent Two Men Searching His Home
for Alleged Abductor.

Montgomery. Ala. Feb. 14.-Chief
Justice Mcclellan, of the Alabama
supreme court, was shot in the right
shoulder at his house this morning by
either Jesse d. Beale or his son, Phelan
Beale, Of this city.
The wound is serious one. 1t is
alleged that the I'eales went to the
house of Judge Mcclellan to find John
Mcqueen. of Birmingham, assistant
solicitor OF Jefferson county. whom the
elder Beale charged with abducting
mis- daughter, Caroline.
1t is alleged Miss Beale had not been
at home all night and they had been
informed that Mcqueen had been rid
ing about in hack with her. Judge
Mcclellan attempted to prevent the
Beales from going through his house in
their hunt for Mcqueen. This they
resented, and one Of them, believed to
have been the father, shot Mcclellan
with a pistol. The Beales pursued
their hunt and believed they had locat.
ed Mcqueen in q closet which was
locked. and fired about dozen shots
through the door. Mcqueen was in
the closet, but was in narrow place
to the side of the door. and was not
struck by any of the halls. The Beales
were arrested and held without bail.

K. Il. l.. Borden, the leader of the OPP
position, asked the premier rs to the
condition OF affairs between Canada
and the United States in regard to the
Alaska boundary and the joint high
commission. Sir Wilfrid Laurier. in
reply, said that the position OF the
joint high commission is exactly the
same as when it separated. The com.
mission is still in existence. When
the sessions of congress and the Cana
dian parliament are over. he expects
that negotiations will be resumed and
satisfactory conclusion reached. lie
had no hope, however, OF reaching
settlement in regard to the Alaska
boundary. 1t was impossible to reach
a settlement with the present view
taken by the United States. but he
thought an honorable compromise may
be arrived at. 1t may he settled by an
honorable compromise or arbitration.
A third party may be called to arbi.
tate. For the present, there is q pro-
visional boundary. which was also
adopted in the way OF a compromise.

NUMEROUS ASSAULT.

Seattle, Feb. 15.-Mad with the
effects OF liquor and at the time infur.

panion had robbed him of a sum Of
money. James Flood attacked James
Dorcev with a razor in room in the
Globe hotel at 10 o'clock today, and
by the narrowest margin possible a
murder was averted.
Both men had been out on spree all
night and had just entered tneir ivV''',
when suddenly Flood turned upon his
roommate and accused him of stealing
$50 Of his money from a coat pocket.
Dorcey denied it. Flood whipped out a
razor, and made a slash at the aston
ished Dorcey. A cash an inch deep
and the full length of the tleshy part OF
the arm was cut. Terrified beyond
measure, Dorcey screamed frantically
for help. Proprietor Hewitt came in
and tried to make peace. In his mad
fury Flood turned upon him with
murder in his eyes, but did not sue
ceeh in cutting him. Flood was over
pOWered.

RlOTlNG IN MADRID.
State Of Siege Proclaimed in the Spanish Cap.
itaI-Many Arrests We're Made.

Madrid. Feb. 15.-Music on the
public squares and a general holiday
had been arranged rs today's pro
gramme of the Asturias. Bourbon mar
riage festivities, but all this has been
abandoned on account Of the attitude
Of the Iopulace.
With nightfall, every approach tc
the Puerta del Sol was jammed with
the idle populace. Insulting remarks
were hurled at the police and civil
guards. A trumpeter sounded charge,
which was made with swords drawn.
Heads were not spared, many persons
we're injured, and there were numerous
arrests. The scattering crowds sought
the shops and hotels. All the front
doors OF the Hotel de Paris were
smashed in, great crowd assembling
there. The police and guards charged
into the streets, but the dispersed
throngs quickly reassembled.
AS was anticipated. the funeral of
Don Ramon de Campoamor, was at
tended with serious disturbances. Tho
weather was beautiful and enormous
crowds gathered along the route taken
by the funeral cortege. Considerable
disorder marked the passage of the
procession, but the troops stood at
strategic points and prevented any
very formidable outbreak until the end
OF the city was reached. At that point
the demonstrators, who included many
students, raised the Cry of "Long live
liberty" and, having broken up into
small parties. proceeded to various
parts of Madrid to renew the demon
stration. One band OF students stoned
u convent.
In the evening fresh riots took place
at several points. Gendarmes charged
with drawn swords, and number
were bruised aud wounded. The
demonstrators replied to the charges Of
the gendarmes with shower of stones.
Altogether some 80 arrests were
made during the day, including a mill
tary officer, whose arrest resulted in a
protest by his brother officers, the mat
ter being referred to the captain-gen.
eral.
The authorities have warned the
newspapers to abstain from the publi-
cation OF news or comments calculated
to fan the present agitation.
