GOSSIP OF NATIONAL CAPITAL

Carmack recently passed on former Governor McMilan. who is thus early training to contest with .ne senator the seat now held oy MT. Frazier, whose term will not expire until 1911. Governor McMi!.an had said in an in- terview that lie was getting himself in fine physical condition for his race against Carmack, so that." he de- clared, T may be able to complete ly eXterminate even the name of Car mack from Tennessee politics." The governor stated that among other things he was doing was the taking of cold bath every morning.
 When Senator Carmack read the interview, his only reply was:
 Great God, \ hatred that would drive man like Benton McMillan tc the bathtub is as cruel as death, and as remorseless as the grave"

Declare They Are Done.

Senators Teller and Money have an- nounced from the floor of the senate that with the expiration of their pres ent terms heir public careers will be closed. The declarations were made Ill the course of speeches they made ln advocacy of the salary-increase Dill. While it has been known for a year or more that Mir. Money would not again be candidate for senator, 1t was not known until MT. Teller's an nouncement yesterday that he expects to retire to private life with the close Of the next congress, which will be March 1, 1909. In making his an- nouncement, MT. Money wanted it un- derstood that he was quitting of his own accord, and not because he want ed more money. Moreover, he be- lieved that if he should run again he could be elected, as he had received this assurance from both John Sharp Williams and Governor Vardaman,
 who are the only candidates for his
 mantle.
 But Senator Teler's was flat and
 unqualified announcement. He said
 simply and in an incidental way, as if
 it concerned ot even himself, that on
 the 4th of March, 1909, his public ca
 reer would be closed after an un-
 broken service of more than thirty years. It is not known Whethar this i veteran legislator has been induced 1, to this decision by reason of a desire to live out the remaining years of his l!fe quietly as q pi4vate citizen, or
 whether he considers the politica. conditions ir Colorad beyonl his control. M. Teller is still st eng and | energetic, anG s;s capable of as hard work as any member of the senate work as any member of the sa '".a.

Tillman and His Colleagues.

Strangely enough, a good deal of surprised comment is being made on the fact that Senator Tilman has aroused the oposition of nearly the en- tire Democratic side of the house by his course in the Brownsville af. fair. Nearly every Democrat who has spoken on that subject has taken a whack at the South Carolinian, and Particularly severe has been the stric- lures of Southern senators. It does not seem to have affected Mir. Tillman in the least, largely because it is no new experience for him. He usually arouses the ire of his own side of the senate before he does that of the Republican side. In point of fact, the fiery South Carolinian is decidely more popular among the Republican than the Democratic senators. His as- sociates for the most part are Re- publicans. Tn this regard he is in about the same fix that Senator La Toilette is in. The Wisconsin senator has no intimates among his Republic an colleagues, but heis on terms Of great cordiality with several Demo- cratic senators.

Mir. Bacon will employ a different ad- jective every time he refers to sen- ator. There is nothing suited about his address, either. 1t is only habit he has fallen into, due, no doubt, to his great respect for the senate as 8 whole

Aunt Mary's Glorious Finish.

A dear old New England spinster, the embodiment of the timid and shrinking, passed away at Carlsbad, where she had gone for her health. Her nearest kinsman, nephew, or dered her body sent back to be buried as was her last wish-in the quiet littel churchyard. His surprise can be imagined when, on opening the casket, he beheld, instead of the placid features of his aunt Mary, the majestic port of an English general in full regi- mentals, whom he remembered had chanced to die at the same time and place as his aunt. At once he cabled to the generals heirs explaining the situation and requesting instructions.
 They came back as follows: Give the general quiet funeral. Aunt Mary inferred today with military honors, six brass bands, saluting guns. Lip pincott's.

tune It was seriously discussed as something more than a possibility bv the Democrats of both high and low degree.

 Judge Gray spent considerable time ln the Democratic cloak room of the senate, and it is no secret that while he was there the talk was confined almost exclusively to the campaign of
 1908 and its prospects. The Dela- Warean appears 10 be enjoying robust health, and looks no older than when he left the senate eight vars ago Several Republican senators, notabl1

Getting Into Washington.

John Sharp Williams, the Democrat ic leader of the house, and Senator Daniel of Virginia, were discussing the Notifications bill while riding in I street car to the capitol. The Missis sippian favored heavy appropriations for increased Qualifications along the Virginia capes.
 Those capes command the entrance to the Potomac he pointed out, "and we should have them so powerfully fortified that an enemy could not get his ships inside Chesapeake bay, for if he got that far we might have to fight him all the way to Washington In other words, we should make 1t impossible for an enemy to get into Washington at all"
 That's so," assented Senator Daniel, musingly; that's so. But did you ever think it would be almost im- possible for an enemy to get into Washington whether Or not we had any sort of Notifications on the capes? I know something about this. For four years I was in sight of Wash ington, but I didn't get in here until 1884"
 In that year Major Daniel was elected member Of thehouse.

soon to Be Announced.

Saturday was ground hog day. This longhonored and weather Wise quadruped walked out of his hole in the woods and on the prairie, not because he has been compelled to remain II hiding by storm or stream until now. but be- cause traditi ,n has invested tis habits With the necessity of an an dual pa"Ade on the serond day of each February, in search of his shadow.
 If he saw his shadow. SD the legend runneth, he retii'e.i to his den and then the weather proSnos- ticator is assured that the ground hog will not appear again for six weeks, for the reason that there is to be six weeks more Of winter.
 Tradition does not say whether Mir. G. Hog appeared in the fore noon or afternoon, nor what hour of either, but if the winter program of old "Prof" as he has carried it out this date in 1907 in Pine Bluff is to be consistent with the performance of the last weeks, the shadow might have been a reali2a- tion.
 When man is reputed to be afraid of his shadow he is the sub ject of general ridicule, but no man is so bold, even in these prOgres- siye times, as to totally disregard the portent of the traditional ground hog shadow, although he may despise the goosebone theory and the flight of goes and the thickness of corn husks as omens of the weather. But since it IS only necessary that the shadow shall not appear to insure an early spring. There is general hope that the weather man will let 1t rain one day more. Local weather experts say MT. G. Hog did not get clock in" at his shadow yester- dav for it was dark and dreary .rd cold Sol" was stingy with his 1 rays.

Unless Roster Is Restored Arkansas Will Be Shown to Have Given More Men to the Union Army Than
 to Cause of Confectionery.

s Father J. M. Lucey of St. Jo #seph's Catholic church, has re- Burned from Little Rock, where he attended a meeting of the state his torical committee of the United s Confederate Veterans, held at Glea- sons Hotel in that city, Saturday. Means to restore the roster of ,<the Arkansas regiments, which Were comprised in the Confederate army, were discussed. The present condition of the rosters was gone the legislature to appropriate suf- ficient funds to prosecute the work of restoration was adopted.
 It was shown at the meeting that if the roster of the Arkansas regiments were not restored this state would go down in history as furnishing more soldiers to the Union army than to the Confeder- ate. The rosters of the Union reg iments are preserved in tiae archives of the war department at Washington, while the list of Con- federate soldiers has never been compiled.
 It was declared at the meeting yesterday that the state of Arkan- sas had furnished nearly 60,OOO troops to the lost cause. Her sons did valiant work under the Stars and Bars on the fields of Shiloh. Natchez and other battlegrounds. It is but fair, say the veterans, that the names of these men should be preserved to posterity by - khe people of the state upon which they brought such credit.
 At the last two sessions of the general assembly, the historical as- sociation had bills introduced to ap- propriate funds to prosecute the work of restoring the rosters. The bills passed the house and the sen- ate, but were vetoed when they reached the governor. An appro- priation of $1,000 is all that the state has ever contributed toward the work.

important question will be submitted to President Roosevelt in a few days and, by him, will be referred i'll all probability to the Congress, together with a special message containing the Presidents recommendations
 The subject will be the report of the special tariff commission which was sent to Germany to discuss with the tariff experts of that country an ad- justment of the tariff relations be- tween America and Germany. Tenta- tive consideration of the subject has been in progress for a long time. Fin ally Germany indicated by the adop- tariff laws, that it was about to take the initiative in tariff war with the United States unless something were done by this country to avert it.
 The enforcement of the maximum German tariffs against American pro- ducts, it was realized, practically 
 out of business, so far as German trade is concerned. In order to avert so serious situation as that would be, Secretary Root induced the Ger man government to postpone for year or more the enforcement of it's maximum tariffs against this country, l, thnt would mean the virtual exclusion of American products from Germany. Meantime, Secretary Root suggested ,, that commissions of the two govern ments get together and discuss the , situation with view to reaching an amicable settlement of the prospec- tive difficulty.
 This suggestion was agreed to by Germany and an American commits sion, headed by Dr. $. x. D. North, di- rector of the census, one of the best equipped tariff experts in this coun- try, was named to confer with like commission of German tariff experts. | ferences in Berlin. They were in ses- sion many weeks and the negotiations only recently were concluded. Just what has been accomplished is not known definitely in detail, but infor- nation from the American members indicates that Germany is ready to Fl, sonable ground. Dr. North is expect ed, in his report, to offer means of adjusting the pending trouble, but it is anticipated the recommendation he may offer will require the action of Congress.
 By the arrangement which Secre- tary Root effected with the German government, the time limit of that government inaction as to the en- forcement of it's maximum tariffs against this country will expire the first of next July. Something will have to be done by the United States before that time, if tariff war be- IuW Ceu lIlc lWO 9ONCl AlAlCuCo 10 u OO averted. It is possible that at the present session of Congress legisla- tion satisfactory to both governments may be enacted, but the time is pretty short between now and the 4th of March for such an arrangement to be made. This situation has aroused gOs-
 sip of an extraordinary session of the incoming Congress to be called for
 the purpose of passing the necessary
 Legislation; but thus far it is no more
 than gossip.
 It is realized fully that the situation
 is fraught with many difficulties, bu,
 the opinion is general that satisfac- tory solution of the matter will be found.
