the race. Speaker Henderson an
nounced his withdrawal after con-
ference of several hours duration with
Chairman Chaser, Of the congress
sional committee. and friends yester-
day afternoon. His friends implored
him not to take the action, but to no
avail. He said he had made up his
mind, and no argument could cause
him to change his sieciaicn.
When asked for his reasons for his
withdrawal, Speaker Henderson said:
'My letter to Chairman Albrook is
the whole thing in nutshell. You
cannot kill the trusts by applying free
trade without killing our own indus
tries. The foreign trusts are fighting
the American trusts. and | do not be-
lieve that. for the purpose of CONTROL
ing the American trusts. we should
make market for foreign trusts,
thereby crushing out the Industries Of
this country. concluded that my
views on the tariff question were at

party. and did not desire to appear

gress has power to treat with them. |

The following letter was addressed
to c. E. Albrook. chairman Of the noti-
fication committee. by Mr. Hender-
son:
my Dear Sri have never en-
swered the note received from you
advising me of my nomination for the
eleventh time by reclamation as the
Republican candidate for congress Tor
the Third congressional district Of
Iowa. Reported ccnait.cns in the pub.
lie mind in my district upon public
policies induced me TO make this de-
lay. Since my return to the district
have made a careful study as 10 the
sentiment in tae district and state. and
believe there is no little sentiment
and a growing sentiment, among Re-
publicans. that do not truly repre-

he does. or which is the immediate or
consequence of his act; Eand
if the prisoner. George Redmond, with
deadly weapon in his possession,
without any, or upon very slight prov
ocation, gave to the deceased, Eugene
Sampson, a mortal wound, from which
tie said Eugene Sampson died, then
the said prisoner, Geo. Redmond, is
prima facie guilty of wilful, deliber-
ate and premeditated killing and the
necessity rests upon him Of showing
externuating circumstances, and nm
less he proves such externuating cir
cumstanecs, or the circumstances ap-
pear from the case made by the State,
the said prisoner is guilty of murder
in the first degree.
The court instrcuts the jury that if
thew believe from the evidence that
Eugene Sampson died as the result of q
wound inflicted upon him with a dead
ly weapon in the hands of the prison
er and the prisoner relies upon the
plea Of self defense to excuse himself
for the use of said deadly weapom
he must prove said plea by FREEDOM

ATTEmPr TO WRECK A TRAIN.

Bv the fortunate appearance of a
freight train ahead of fast express
train No. AZ on the Baltimore and
Ohio this morning a dastardly attempt
to cause disastrous wreck at Buffers
fiat, six miles east of Martins burg,
was frustrated. As the enginem an ON
engine No. 206S, which was drawing
a westbound freight train. approached
the fiat he noticed a rail across the
track. He slowed up. but not in time
to prevent the engine striking the rail.
The pony truck of the engine was
thrown off the track, but further than
that 40 damage was done.
The rail was evidently placed on the
track to wreck train No. AZ, the train
which brings the morning city papers
west. 1t is due here at 6:30 o'clock
The freight train ran into the rail
about 6 O'Clock.
b. & o. Detective Hardy went to
the vicinity Of the attempted wreck
this morning and an attempt viii be
made to bring the wouid-be wreckers
to Justice.

THE ISTHNIAN CANAL.

The passage of the Nicaragua Canal
bill by the House of Representatives, by
an almost unanimous vote, SO early in
the session, looked to the uninitiated,
like rapid progress toward the accom-
pllshment of a great enterprise which
has occupied the attention of the world
for several generations. As was said at
the time however, il meant scarcely
anything, 1t was hardly pointer to a
decision between the Nicaragua and
Panama routes. Both political parties
were committed to a canal of some
sort, and men of both parties were
quick to get on record, and there was
no test vote between the two proposed
routes.
The Canal Commission has Just made
a unanimous report to the President In
favor of the Panama route, The canal
on the Panama route is partially dug,
and the work is now offered to the
United States for forty millions of dol
lars, which is regarded as dirt cheap
if all the necessary concessions can be
transferred with the ditch and clear
title can be given, 1t should not be
difficult for the United States to deal
with the Government of Columbia, and
of course we must look out for defects
in the transfer.
The Panama route is so much shorter
than the Nicaragua, and Is probably SO
much simpler as engineering enterprise,
that many of the preiudices against it
may have to fall. On the Nicaragua
route there must be many locks; on the
Panama very few, if any. The distance
from New Orleans &c, San Francisco,
or from New York toSDan Francisco,
would be some shorter by the Nicarau-
qua than by the Panama; but the differ
ence might not be considered great
enough to stand against the difference
in cost and the greater difficulty in nav.
igation.
