Ohio Politicians Think He Will Get the Senatorship. Representative Outhwaite of Ohio has been spoken of as a candidate for the United States Senate from Ohio, The chances are, however, that he will not enter the field. He said toa Srar reporter today that he was gratified at the mention of his name, but that he would not become a candidate, “I think things are pretty well fixed for Brice now,” he said, ‘and he will probabiy be the Senator.” Representative Haynes, who comes from Frank Hurd’s district, was at the Capitel to- day, Speaking of the Ohio Senatorship, he said that while the field was still open to every- body, the popular sentiment seemed to favor Mr. Brice.

The zoological park commission, consisting of Secretary Noble, Commissiones Douglass and Prof. Langley, with ex-Commissioner Wm. B. Webb as attorney, called on the President this morning and presented their report, They submitted their estimates of condemnation, amounting to $166,000, and left with him a map showing the plan of the proposed park, together with other papers giving information about the project. The President was much interested, and there is but little doubt that he will approve the report when he sends it to Congress. The general appropriation for the project is $200,000 and thus there is still $34,000 left to the commission for suth expenses as may be incurred in plotting the ground and be- ginning the work of clearing out, Nothing of this sort can be done, however, until Congress gives its sanction to the plan of condemnation, which may not be done until the latter part of the session, It is probable, however, that early action will be taken upon the report and a defi- nite sum appropriated for the improvement of the park. Senator Ingalls Has No Easy Task. The feeling in political circles here is that Senator Ingalls will have a mighty hard fight to hold his seat in the Senate. By his quick retort and ready invective he has made some enemies, and there is thought to be great danger that the resubmissionists, joining with the democrats, may prevent his re-election. He is now at his home working with his friends, His colleagues in the Senate take a great interest in his fight, Traveling Accommodations for Soldiers. The Secretary of War has ordered that the following sleeping and parlor car accommo- dations be allowed officers and soldiers while traveling on public daty: Officers of the army traveling on duty with troops, clerks and agents in the military ser- vice traveling under orders on public business, ants of the post non-commissioned staff, hospital stewards and non-commissioned ofli- troops, and, when necessary, invalid soldiers traveling under orders, will be allowed one double berth in a sleeping car, or‘the custom- ary state room accommodations on boats and steamers where extra charge is made for such accommodations, The same allowance is authorized, in the discretion of the chief sig- na! officer, in the case of corporals and privates of the signal corps when traveling on duty un- der orders without troops, when traveling at night, or when the travel exceeds twelve con- tinuous hours, Officers of the army traveling on duty with troops shall also be allowed one seat in a day parl Southern Republicans and House Offices. Among the callers at the District buildings today was Hou. Louis McComas of Maryland, Mr. McComas said to a Svar reporter that there were so few of the southern republican Con- gressmen in town, only four having urrived, that he was unable to state just what course they would pursue with reference to the House offices. Ile thought, however, that without referri to the other positions the north and west would grant the place of door- keeper to the choice of the southern delega- tion. ‘rhe man whom they favor is Charles W. ‘dams of Hagerstown, Md., who is a well- known republicen and ex-soldier, The World’s Fair and the Tax Payers.

Pirtssura, Pa., Nov, 22.—Considerable ex- citement prevails in the Lawrenceville district today over the feilure of the Lawrence bank. The doors were not closed until the usual hour yesterday, and when the reports were first cir- culated they were not generally credited. This morning, however, the doors remained closed, Many of the ‘depositors, who were principally of the poorer class, gathered about the justitution, but the best of order was main- tained. The failure has caused but little flarry in financial circles, and it js claimed that no other banks are involved. Long & Co., iron plant, is in the hands of the sheriff. The judg- ment confessed in favor of the defunct bank was $300,000, but it is claimed by the firm that the actual amount is not over 150,000. ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN. A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.

New Yorx, Nov. 22—Private advices from London received in this city state that a rumor is prevalent in that city thata revolution occurred in Cuba, = THE RUMOR IN LONDON AND PARIS. Loxpox, Nov, 22.—Persistent rumors are afloat in London today to the effect that there is a revolution in progress in the island of Cuba, Dispatches from Paris report that the same rumors are current there and are excit- ing attention. So far it has been impossible to trace the rumors to any definite source, and the assumption is that they have sprung up through the belief that the peaceful revolution in Brazil would be likely to exert a powerful influence with the discontented republican element in Cuba, The fact that there is a strict censor- ship of news dispatches at Havana makes it possible for a revolutionary movement to get under way in the island before any definite in- telligence can reach the outside world. While the rumors are not credited, the news agencies are receiving many inquiries in regard to them and are making vigorous efforts to run them down or to get direct intelligence from Havana as to the actual condition of affairs throughout the island. CABLE CENSORSHIP, New York, Noy. 22.—The Associated Press had dispatches from Havana last night. These gave no hint of any political dificulty. A dis- patch of inquiry has been cabled to a corre- spondent at Havana, but if there is an insur- rection the censorship will probably forbid any news to be cabled. a HE BETRAYED HER. A Brooklyn Bridge Trustee Shot and Killed on the Street. New York, Nov. 22.—At 100’clock this morn- ing Hannah Southworth, thirty years old, shot and killed Stephen Pettus, a trustee of the Brooklyn bridge, in front of No, 10 Fulton street, The woman says Pettus seduced her under a promise of marriage. She put five bul- lets into his body. She had instituted legal roceedings against Pettus for breach of prom- and betrayal, and the suit is now pending. Pettus was secretary and treasurer of the Brooklyn elevated railroad. The weapon used was a 38-caliber Smith & Wesson revolver. Pet- tus lived at 49 8th avenue, Brooklyn, and was a member of the firm of Pollard, Pettus & Co. of 54 Broad street, this city, He crossed each day by the Fulton ferry and reached his place of business at about 10 every morning. This morning he nad just Jeft the ferry and was pas- sing by No. 8 Fulton street when the woman stepped up behind him and drawing the revol- ver from her breast began shooting. shots entere? Pettus’ body im the back before he could ibly turn, such was the rapidity with which the desperate woman handied the revolver. With the third shot Pettus turned and facing his assailant, who by this time was within three feet of him, received another bul- jet in the neck. The fifth and last shot fired entered the right side of Mr, Pettus’ face. He staggered and fell backward into Bennett's tea store. IT WAS DELIBERATE. Pettus fell at the first shot, but the woman continued firing until every chamber of the re- volver was empty. As the victim writhed and tossed in agony on the sidewalk the womun, looking calm and selt- actually smiled with apparent tion, A great crowd gathers” An officer rushed for the women. His first impulse was to take the smoking pistol from her band. When sbe saw the ofticer coming she raised herself to her full height, assumed a dramatic position,and hissed out between her teeth, pointing at the lifeless body on the sidewalk, *“That man betrayed me and I have shot him. He has ruined me and my family.” Officer Goodwin did not stop to parley. The crowd was becoming greater and greater every moment, Taking the woman by the arm the officer led her to the old slip sta- tion. During the trying ordeal Miss south- worth never winced, but, on the contrary, ap- peared to become, if possible, more calm and dignitied, Pettus died igmediately, Last May Mrs. Hannah B, Southworth assaulted Major Pettus on Sands street, Brooklyn, breaking an um- brella over his head. She was arrested May 16 and on June 6 in a police court she was fined $20 and piaced under bonds. The bonds still hold good. A brother of Mr. Pettus from Tennessee came to the station house at 11 o'clock. He broke completely down when told of the tragedy and begged that his brother's wife should not be toid that his brother was killed by woman. The dead man left nochildren. TOPICS OF THE RAIL.
