Nat.c- cf Conjecture.

health.
The senator said that the outcome of
the contest for the Iowa federal judge
ship Is as much a matter of doubt as
ever. He ssfd that tie members Of
the caucus will meet again soon after
the first OF the year. Many Of the
stories that have been printed about
the judgeship are unreliable said San
ator Allison. Nobody lis able to foretel
the result of the next caucus. The
matter has not been gone into far
enough to Determine who stands the
best chance Of being appointed.
Senator Allison had IN amusing ex-
perience as he alighted from the train
here. On the same train were delega-
tons OF the order of Eagles, who We're
coming to Dubuque to assist in the in
s;allation of the order in this city. and
the local members were at the depot
with a band to meet them. Just as
Senator Allison stepped from the train
the band started up with "There'li Be
Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight"
The senator saluted the crowd at the
depot and passed into his carriage.

Disappearance of the Clare Farmer
Still Mystery.


Special to Times Republican.
Fort Dodge. Dec. 23.-The mystery OF
the disappearance of Matt McDermott
still remains mystery, as the latest
clue has been run to earth withou.
furnishing the key to his whereabouts.
His brother, Tom McDermott, farmer
living near Clare received a letter from
a friend in Freeport, Illinois, STATING,
that McDermott was employed in the
Illinois Central there. 1t was thought
that it was very possible and steps
We're taken to determine whether OF
not 1t was SO. Tom McDermott noti-.
fled Chief WEIGH of this city of the
letter which he had received and Mr..
Welch opened up communication with
the foreman of the shops there. This
morning he received letter from the
foreman, stating that after a most
careful search he is satisfied that Nc
of men employed in the shops and that
he has not been employed in the shops,
for some time past, thus exploding the
latest hope for clearing UP the mys-
terry.
McDermott's relatives have never
given up. and still cling to the hopf
tina; they will yet find him. Many
clues have been run to earth, but
all have SO far ended in nothing and
the real cause of his disappearance,
and what really became of him. bids
fair to remain one of those mysteries
which are never cleared up.
