MCDONALD IS GOVERNOR COLORADO'S THIRD WITHIN SPACE OF TWENTY-FOUR HOURS. Succeeds Peabody, Who Reslgns--Alva Adams Submits Peacefully to
 Outrageous Steal Perpe-
 trated Upon Him.

Denver, Col. March 17.--In less than twenty-four hours Colorado has had three Governors. The bargain made by leaders of the opposing Republican factions of Colorado to take the Gov ernors chair from Alva Adams and to seat Lieutenant Governor J. F. Mo Donald after permitting James H. Pea body to hold office for one day was car ried to a conclusion this evening.
 Governor Peabody. in fulfillment of the agreement which he made prior to the General Assembly deciding the gu- bernatorial contest in his favor. re- signed t;Iis evening the office to which a day previous he was inaugurated. His resignation, of which w. s. Boyn- ton of Colorado Springs had been GUS todan since Wednesday,, when 1t was written, was filed in the office of the Secretary of State today at 4:2O p. m. James Cowie, Secretary of State, inn mediately certified Governor Peabody's resignation and Lieutenant Governor Mcdonald was then sworn in as Gov ernor by Chief Justice Gabert. There was no further ceremony. Governor Adams was busted and Governor Pea body installed by the General Assembly about o'clock yesterday, Governor Mcdonald was sworn in before p. m. today, thus completing the record of three Governors inside of twenty-four hours.
 Governor Peabody transacted practi- cally no business of State while in the office of Governor. He received many callers who urged him not to resign, and also many messages of the same import by telegraph and telephone. To all these he replied that he did not care to hold the chair. He said he was tired of the worry and excitement of his contest and wished to go back to his bank in Canyon City. Half a dozen members of the national guard patrolled the corridors about the ex- ecutive chamber during the day as a guard for Governor Peabody.
 Lieutenant Governor Mcdonald re- Iuctantly takes the chair which Gov ernor Peabody resigned after forcing Governor Adams out. The Lieutenant Governor has taken no part in the bit ter fight over the Governorship which has been wager ever since the election on November s. He absolutely re- fused to aid his friends in the legisla- ture to have him made the Governor and as presiding officer in .hC joint as- sembly he made several rulings against the movement in his behalf Senator Cornforth, president pro tempore of the Senate, becomes acting Lieutenant Governor by the elevation of Licuten- ant Governor Nc Donald to the office of chief executive.

MORGAN IS INDIGNANT.
DOESN'T LIKE GARRLED ACCOUNTS
 OF EXECUTIVE SESSION.
BOnaething Concerning Mrs. Reeder, Formerly m Alabama Girl, Whose Name Has Been Used in
 Discussion.
Advertiser Bureau,
 WashinRton March

Washington, March IT.
 Senator Morgan is extremely indig- narit over the garbled account given 2 of the proceedings of the executive ses- sion touching the Santa Domingo treaty in which he has borne a notable part His expressions of protest to- day attracted the closest attention on the part of the senators and spectators, for,it was realized his remarks carried no small significance in the history making respecting the proposed treaty.
 1t is not the first time the Alabama Senator has taken occasion to complain about somebody having legitimate Knowledge of executive session affairs violating obligations of secrecy and giving away confidential things for ulterior if not sinister purposes. This occurred during the secret discussions on the Panama treaty and the previous ostensible efforts of the Roosevelt ad- ministration to negotiate a treaty with the Columbian government when a column and half story published by Washington newspaper was wired to General Regis. the minister of Column bia in the City of Mexico.
 The Senator evidently believed there was cloven foot in that business and he is evidently as fully convinced that 1t is the same kind of hoof which has made tracks in the Santo Domingo af- fair
 The Mrs. Reeder whose name was brought into the discussion by Senator Morgan and for whose utmost reliabili- ty he vouched by the challenge convey ed in his resolution, came to him with the highest credentials. She was born reared and educated at Marion. in Per ry County. Alabama, and was Miss Eleanor Rowles, daughetr of Dr. R0ulAa whn rlrazfdad nuer praahv- terian institution for young women at Marion. She went to New York as a young woman ambitious to make her own way in life. She possessed rare intellectual accomplishments. advanced in whatever she undertook and married A. B. Reeder. a man of large affairs not In New York, but elsewhere. She was his trusted an5 very valued as- scciate in business some of 1t of con siderable magnitude in South America.
 Her remarkable talents and her hus- bands reputable strength in the busi- ness world caused her to be sought by the Dominican government as its fiscal agent. She and her husband were con- sldering the proposition submitted to them when suddenly proceedings were unaccountabiy broken of under evident Inspiration from Washington at the in- stance of the island authorities who had invoked the aid of the Feeders in treating with this government.
 The Feeders brought to Senator Nor gan the highest testimonials from ruptable bankers and business men of New York. Much more of this affair will be heard.

Col. Spofford has submitted this

Idaho railroad is fraught. The
