There has been desperate fight going on for speakership of the house, and at this hour,one o'clock, the chances are about even between ex-Speaker Cargill and Col.

There is not so much of a contest going on for positions in the senate, it being gener- ally agreed that the old force is entitled to a second term. Both houses will hold causes this afternoon, but will hardly close their labors before dark: Probably the first work of the house next week will be the unseating of the Hamilton county delegation.

A DELIBERATE SUICIDE. [ow Richard Cooney, of the Monitor Fleet, Forestalled Heart Disease. Special Dispatch to THR EVENING STAR. PETERSBURG, Va., Jan, 2.—The unusually quiet village of City Point, about ten miies from this city, where is anchored the United States Monitor fleet, was thrown into excite- ment ata late hour last night by the suicide of Richard F. Cooney, of the fleet. The suicide was one of the cvolest and most deliberate ever known in the history of such crimes, inasmuch as the unfortunate man was perfectly sane at the time he committed the act. Cooney killed himself by severing both arteries of the wrist with a razor and then sat quietly down and bled to death, For some time the deceased has been a sufferer from heart disease, and the cause be gave for killing himself was that he had a pre- sentiment that he would diesoon and very sud- denly, Cooney was a native of Brooklyn, ‘and about forty years of aye.

Loxpox, Jan. 2.—In home politics two ra- mors are being vigorously circulated which I cannot yet confirm or contradict. The first Is that acoalition of the leaders of both parties will be attempted on the home rule question, This is very difficult to credit. The second ts more possible, namely, that Lord Randolph Churchill has succeeded in inducing the gov- ernment to accept a home rule scheme of mode- rate proposals, and that the government will immedi introduce this and challenge a vote of confidence on it, and if beaten will dis- solve ‘liament.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EvENING Star. Lowpos, Jan, 2.—The annexation of Burmah has come at last, and the country on the whole takes it very calmly. The tory papers strongly approve it, and the liberal papers are mostly on the fence. The Zimes says “The country will not hesitate to sanction this decisive step.” The Standard, ory, says: “If anything can be said by way of reproach, it 1s that we have waited too long.” The Daily News, liberal, says: “We have not at present seen any reason to modify our opinion that It would have been better to secure the safety and good treatment of the British subjects in Burmab without perma- nently adding to our enormous responsibilities in India.” The Spectator, liberal, says: “M cannot feel exuitant, but rather are disposed to say in all humility, not wholly Christian, ‘God guard England, for the task surpasses the energy of nan,’ ——-__.
