Wednesday Nights Frost, While
General, Did Little Damage.
Special to Times Republican.
Fort Dodge, Sept Ice. A. Arm
strong, of the firm of Armstrong &
AIeservey, grain and commission mer-
chants stated today to newspaper
representative. that the light frost
which visited F't. Dodge and vicinity
Wedncsaev ,i~ht was general over the
state. He said:
Yes, lue.e was twenty different
stations which are scattered over the
whole of Iowa. Every one of these
reports state there was a frost, but
not killing freeze. In only one place
of all we have heard from was there
enough cold to kill tomato vines and
there it occurred only in the low
places.
Think Frost a Good Thing.
Authorities on the subject over the
state seem 10 think that the light frost
was good thing and that it will great
ly hasten the ripening of the corn. 1t
will check it's growth and with this
done a few warm days will finish the
ripening process and the crop in this
state ut least will be safe.
There may be one little place in the
southwest conner of the state where
thu. corn has been damaged, but we
have not heard as vet, just what the
conditions are. The report from
Omaha says: "Only light frost here,
hut east Ct as they got a plenty of
it" This report is rather indefinite
and it is aard to tell from it just what
the damage i'm this section will amount
to. However. we don't think it will
be much ga al all other points the
f:ost was very light

VERDICT STUNS THE SENATE.
Seat Will Not BE Vacant Till
Court of Last Resort Acts.
The Republic Bureau.
-. - ,-.nFn 4.-a

Washington. March @S.-Not in recent
years has news from another city been
awaited in Washington with such keen
and intense interesr As was exhibited to-
DAY relative To the Burton verdict. mem
bars Of Congress heads of departments
and every person OF consequence in the
national official life looking forward with
eager expectancy To the finding.
The conviction literally stuns the Sen
ate. Il is considered to be blow at the
dignity Of that body. which so universally
is proclaimed the most powerful and the
greatest legislative assemblage OF the
world. Senators approached to-day ac-
cept the fact in all its gravity. a blow
struck at popular confidence in the integ-
rity Of the Senate itself and as shock
to the pride they take in participating in
the upper leSislStiRg authority Of the
United States.
But each who was seen declared that
to speak for publication at this time
would be premature and improper. No
sympathy for Burton or condonement OF
his ofTense was intimated, but the matter
is not regarded as ono upon which pub
lie utterance may be made BY a col
league until after the case has been
passed upon by the court of last resort
Senator Burton's seat will not be de-
clared vacant by the Senate. until the ap-
pliCation for a new trial has been passed
upon. and until action upon appeal has
been rendered. Such will be the policy
pursued. as it was stated by several
Senators this afternoon. The Kansan,
however. by the pressure OF the general
sentiment among his fellow Senators. will
nff hn nd IN ~ r fTNQf fa in q n
OF the Senate's deliberations: he has not
done SO since his Indictment
The law was designed to meet the cases
Of congressman known to have influenced
awards of contracts during the Civil War
These facts are not cited by members in
extenuation Of the Kansan. but merely by
way of commentary.
No instance in any way q precedent is
found in American history later than half
a century ago. Senator James r. SIM
mons OF Rhode Island, wealthy manu-
facturer. was elected TO the Senate in ls4l
In 1s47 he was reelected as a Whig. IN
1862 Edward NJ Stanton. Secretary OF War.
filed charges before the Senate itself
charging that Simmons had entered into
an agreement with a manufacturing firm
by which he was TO receive 5000, should
its firearms be adopted by the War De-
partment The Senate sustained the
charges and Simmons resigned. The case
was then dropped.
BRISTOw FOR OFFICE.
Should the seat be declsTed vacant. or
| should Burton resign. it is expected that
Governor Bailey would at once exert his
appointive prerogatiye, II the Legislature
| were not in session. In the latter case,
the legislators would fill the vacancy. Mr..
Bristow is prominently mentioned as a
possible successor. to whom Governor
Bailey might extend the honor.
Reference to compilation OF Senate
election cases from 17S9 to 1893 shows no
| expulsion of Senator for conviction of
a crime, though there have been instances
where members of the Senate have re-
signed before acting on charges.

Louisville. Ky. March 8.-Copies Of a
remarkable will left by Colonel C. NJ.
Strader, u. s. A. retired, who died two
days ago at St Joseph's Hospital IN Phil
adelphia, have been received by several
prominent business men of Louisville

msrket, John W. Gates. who was in ST.
Louis yesterday on his way East after
an extensive sojourn in Texas has formed
a combination which will control the rice
output Of the United States and regulate

Is stated that it will he known as the
National Rice Association Of America. and

rice growers of the two States will join
the association.
Speaking of the proposed association.
W T Egldridge OF Eagle Lake. Colorado
County. Tex. a large rice grower. who
was in the city yesterday. said:
The rice crop from Texas and Louisi-
ana last year amounted to a little more
than 10000 bags. and We do not believe
that the crop will fall below this figure
this year. The price of rice Is now very
low and il is believed that the association
can maintain a fsir price for the cereal.
MIR. Gates states that he will supply
any additional finances which the associa-
may eed. He is largely interested in this
matter and will undoubtedly do much for
its success"
1t is stated that the average yield Of
one acre is FIVE bags, from which can
be estimated the total amount of land in
which rice is planted.
The Texas rice crop has grown TO enor-
nous proportions and it is stated that in
several instances Texas has shipped rice
10 Chlra.
1t is stated that a meeting will also be
held at Houston, Tex, next Thursday,
when further steps will be taken to pro-
mote the association. The Texas com
