A Problem of Senate HOW THE TERMS OF THE EIGHT SENATORS FROM ‘THE NEW STATES WILL BE FIXED—HAVE HERE- TOFORE BEEN DETERMINED BY LOT—THE RE- PUBLICAN MAJORITY. The reorganization of the Senate in Decem- ber will be made quite interesting by the ac- quisition of the eight Senators from the new- born states. At the special session of the Sen- ate after the 4th of March there were 37 dem- ocrats and 39 republicans. When Congress meets in December the republicans will have at least 45 Senators. It is not yet certain which party will get the two Senators from Montana. If they go to the democrats ‘THE SENATE WILL STAND 45 republicans to 39 democrats, Otherwise the republicans will have 47 and the democrats only their present 37. The interesting thing about the reorganization will be the CLASSIFICATION OF THE EIGHT NEW SENATORS. Under the Constitution the Senate must be divided ay nearly as may be into three equal classes—the terms expiring two years apart, from one class to another. The terms of the Senators in one of these classes will expire in "91, of the other in ‘98 and of the third in "95. The new Senators are each elected for six Leb hey they cannot ail come inte the class of ro only of them can enter that class. The rest will have to suffer A BHORTENING OF THEIR TERMS, ome to two years and some to four. At Present there are twenty-six Senators whose terms expire in '95. In each of the other clayses there are twenty-five Senators; Three of the new Senators will have terms expiring in '91; three in '93 and two in '95, All three of the classes will then be even. NO LAW BUT PRECEDENCE. There is no law by which to determine which ofthe new men shall have short and which long terms, and precedence furnishes but one means of deciding the question. When the United States Senate was first organized the question was decided by lot— drawing straws. When Colorado was admitted slips of Peper were num- bered and put in a t to be drawn by the two Senators to decide their fortune. Senator Teller then got a term of but four or five months because the term of the class with which fate cast his lot had almost expired. ‘his SEEMED LIKE HARD LUCK, but by s paradox it was quite the reverse. By having a term that expired so soon he was thrown back upon the same legislature that first elected him for re-election, and so got two terms, a long one and a very short one. Some such thing may happen to some of the new Senators if in any case the legisiatures hold over for two years. However, they will have to trust to luck for their assignments. OW THE HOUBE STANDS. With the West Virginia cases in their present condition the House without the members from the new states has 164 republican and 161 democrats. There have been five deaths— Cox,democrat; Gray, democrat; Laird, republi- can, Nutting, republican, and To’ end, democrat, These do not change the status of the ies at all, as the deceased member will be suc- ceeded by a member of his own party in each case. The five Representatives from the new states add that much to the republican majority, gr. ing them 169 members—a majority of 3 vat only two more than a quorum. SENATOR STEWART’S FAMILY. The Mother of the Fox Children Now With Her Husband in China.

The lady whose children are the cause of the litigation is now in Peking, China, with her husband, Senor J. de Romero y Dusmet, to whom she was mar- ried last year at her father's house on Rhode Island avenue, when Mr. Romero was an at- tache of the Spanish legation here.

Army Officers Waiting for a Decision Involving $1,500,000. Army officers are much interested in a longevity ration case now pending before Second Controller Gilkeson involving the ques- tion of pay for longevity rations for almost every officer in the army. The total amount of all the claims involved is about a million and a half of dollars. When the first claim was pre- sented to the second auditor it was disallowed. The Court of Claims, however, decided that officers were entitled under the law to allowance for longevity rations and the Supreme Court affirmed the decision. ie second controller still hesitates to allow the claims. as he is doubtful as to whether the decision of the Supreme Court operates to reopen accounts which have already been settled. The second controller has devoted much time and thought to the case, and has finally written to the At- eae General asking his opinion on the ques- 2. Lieut. Cross’ Alleged Insanity. A-writ of habeas corpus was granted in the supreme court in New York city yesterday directing the superintendent of the Butler in- sane asylum at Providence, R.L, to produce the body of Second Lieut.

English Slave Dealers in Zanzibar— Bradlaugh Ill—Noted Irishmen Coming. Lonpox, Oct. 22—Letters from Zanzibar received at the office of the Anti-slavery society here report that the buying and selling of human chattels in the streets of that city is being carried on with scarcely an attempt at concealment. Weekly markets are held, at which the slaves are boldly exposed to the gaze of intending buyers, mr ps many cases each ve carries a placard suspended from his neck upon which is written the price at which he can be bought. The women are sold for what they will fetch, the ordinary price being about £6 if bos bert young. The merchants who carry on this traffic are all Arabs, but it appears to be well understood in Zanzibar that arich firm of traders, every member of which hails from England, furnish all the capital to conduct the business, and that by far the largest share of their immense sere gens is derived from this traffic. All the local officials in Zanzibar are said to be in the pay of this firm, who purchase immunity by bribing the authorities from the highest to the lowest. and 80 complete is their influence that no complaint receives the slightest attention. To illustrate the openness with which the traffic is carried on it is pointed out that the receipts of slaves every week are publicly announced by placards upon the walls of the houses. The letters com- jain that the representatives in Zanzibur of he different European governments appear to take no interest whatever in these matters, BACK TO RUSSIA.

Herr Von Roetticher, vice president of the Prussian ministry, read the emperor's speech from the throne. The address says: “The active attention of the —— reichstag has been bx Poer-pl directed to the securing of — abroad and at home and the tasks of the forthcoming session will be in the same direc- tion. When the reichstag met in 1887 the fore- most object was the consolidation of the defensive powers of the fatherland. The reichstag with patriotic appreciation of the situation applied itself thereto. Your co-o} eration to this end will be again claimed. In order to develop the efficiency of the army and its readiness for action, in accordance with whatever circumstances may arise and thereby impart to the efforts of the emperor and his exalted allies for the preservation of the weight which is their due in the council of nations, a bill will be presented by the govern- ment amending the military law of May 2. 1874. It will provide for a fresh distribution of the army, and is intended to readjust, in the in- terest of the training and conductof the army, the inequalities of organization which have arisen through strengthening the army and the displacement of troops from time to time. From this cause, and the corresponding expan- sion of the naval power, arises the additional expenditure set forth in the budget. “The financial étatement to be submitted will present a not inconsiderable increase in the matricular contributions of the several states tothe army compared with those of the cur- rent financial year.

Senator Stewart’s Son-in- Law. Mr. Fox, Produces a Disturbance. Sax Franorsco, Cat, Oct. 22.—A family sean dal was exposed here yesterday in Judge Hoge’s court.when United States Senator Stew- art of Nevada was cited to show why he should not be punished for contempt for failing to al: low his son-in-law, A. W. Fox, tosee his three children. Fox and his wife have been divorced several years and the children have been cared for by the Stewarts. Fox filed a sensational affidavit yesterday, in which he makes various charges against Mr. and Mra, Stewart. Mrs. Stewart testified that Fox was a worthless char- acter with whom her daughter fell in love when she was only seventeen. To prevent the scandal of an elopement her parents consented to the marriage. The Senator repeatedly se- cured good employment for Fox, but he never kept any. No effort has been made to keep the children from Fox, but he failed to supply money for their support. A dispatch to the New York Heraldsays: Sena- tor and Mrs, Stewart, with twosons of Mr. Fox, were in the court room. The affidavit was made by Fox for the purpose of inducing the court to believe that Senator Stewart and his wife were not fit persons to have the custody of the children. It was of ascandalous nature and contained a number of sensational charges. Deponent alleges that Mr. and Mrs, Stewart were nota ae couple, that they con- tinally quarreled. that Stewart had been en- in shady transactions in connection with the sale of the Emma mine and that his wife(Mra, Fox) allowed him to obtain a decree of divorce, awarding him the custody of the children, be- cause she knew he positive evidence of her unfitness, He also impugned Senator Stewart's morality and asserted that plaintiff was anxious to alienate the affections of his children, The affidavit was read by James Crittenden, attorney for the defendant. When it was concluded W. F. Herrin, attor- ney for the plaintiff. moved that the greater portion of it be stricken from the records be- cause of its scandalous and irrelevant nature. He said that it had apparently been made for the purpose of creating a sensation, and in it- self furnished ample proof of defendant's un- fitness, inasmuch as he sought to cast odium on the mother of his children. Judge Hoge reserved decision on the motion. Mrs. W. M. Stewart was then called as a wit- ness, She is a handsome, gray-haired lady of striking appearance. She told a sad of the family trouble caused by the first marriage of her daughter, who is now the wife of Joseph D. Romero, secretary of the Spanish legation in China, ‘She said that her daughter fell in love with Fox while she was attending school, at the age of seventeen years, and before she had sense enough to know the importance of the step. Witness opposed the marriage, but as Fox urged the chiid to elope with him it was thought advisable to avert scandal by | seigrenare the marriage. It was not long be- fore the daughter had good cause to regret the development of ber early passion. Her husband proved a worthless character, although the witness obtained lucrative positions for him and did all in her power to make her daughter and her husband happy.

Farmers iy the Golden Northwest im the Pinch of Poverty. Sr, Pavt, Oct, 22.—The relief committee of the chamber of commerce has presented @ startling report on the destitution existing in the Dakotas. It says the suffering and desti- tution is much greater than has yet been re- ported. The report continues: “Ramsey county has « population of 7,000 people. Of these about 6,000 are engaged in farming. The frosts of last year cut off the crops generally and the farmers were obliged to mortgage their farms for feed, pro- visions and clothing to carry them through last winter. This spring personal property, such as stock, machinery, &c.. wax mortgaged for seed. and funds to put in the crop, There has been 4 continual South throughout the entire sea- son and the crops have been almost a total failure. The borrowed funds are entirely ex- hausted. In Ramsey county alone there from 200 to 500 families eutirely destitute. In Nelson and Walsh counties there are also great destitution and suffering, and there are prob- | ably in this district of North Dakota not less than 1,000 families who are nearly or entirely destitute. “We find also that there is a district in South Dakota that is in like condition, This district is embraced withm Miner, Lake, Sanborn and Beadle counties, but it is surrounded by us lous towns and cities like Sioux Falls, Yankton, Huron, Watertown, Pierre, &., and it ie thonght if application is made to these cities enough aid will be given.” It is imperative that this devastated district of North Dakota should receive some assist- ance immedutely. The supplies most urgently required are boots, shoes, hosiery, mittens, un- der garments, flour, corn meal, necessary gro- ceries and grain for their stock. It is esti- mated that there are nearly enough potatoes and hay raised in this section to supply the de- mand. A subscription has been opened by the city council and commercial bodies of St. Paul and Minneapolis, and » special collection will be taken up inthe Twin city churches Sunday, November 3, for the benefit of the starving thousands. A dispatch from Argyle. Minn., says: For two years the farmers of Marshall county bave lost almost their entire crop. Hail storms this year practically laid everything to waste and ruined the harvest. This disaster coming after the previous visitation has reduced many of the farmers to the verge of starvation and unless something is done to relieve the distress there will be much suffering this winter. Gov. Merriam has appointed a commission to inves- tigate and report upon the existing distress. > WOMAN’S SUFFRAGE, Miss Anthony Says South Dakota is to be Campaign Ground. MrsxgaPouss, Oct. 22,—Susan B. Anthony has returned here from South Dakota, In an interview she says: ‘The state of South Da- kota is the place of all others in the United States to which we sre going to turn our at- tention, The state is bound by its constitution to submit the question of universal suffrage a year from this time, and we are to con- centrate all our forces in that state this time on. All the best speakers, all the best workers in the woman's suffrage ranks are to be turned into the field in South Dakota. We have every assurance that we are going to carry the day. We shall do the greatest work for the cause ever done. The fact is, South Dakota people are largely made up of liberal westerners, who did not come from the con- servative east. Many of them are educated up to the fact that women’s #1 has come, that it is no longer an experiment. amiipbenonisies When Doctors Disagree.
