Dillon and O’Brien in their private letters disclaim any desire to retain Mr. Parnell im the leadership, and say that this question hes not arisen at the Boulogne conference. Mr. Parnell has de- clared his willingness to set aside his own claims and his right to nominate a successor.

Ex-Gov. Oglesby Will Be on Hand Until It is Over. Sprrsortexp, Int., Jan. 20.—Ex-Gov. Oglesby arrived here last night and will remain until the senatorial contest is well on. It is not sup- posed by any one here that one or two days will settle the contest. In an interview Mr. Oglesby felt that the nomination is a serious and grave compliment, one wholly unexpected by him. , he said, having re~ for saying he was “out of politic tired ‘to private life. He realized, however, that it is a call from the people of the state and would be reluctant to disregard expressed wishes of the people who have trusted and honored him more than once. He added that he had been informed that prior to his nomina- tion a conference of farmer members of the legislature expressed their preference for him, and he thought it not unlikely their ection bad ‘a material influence in the decision of the cau- ens. Atany rate, he anid, it had some infia- ence upon his mind in causing him to accept. ‘The ex-governor said whatever the result of the approaching contest he does not expect to give up farming for any other pursuit, and he firmly believes that more and more as our population increases agriculture must inevit- ably demand of and receive from nations and states more considerate regard than hereto- fore. ‘THE FIRST BALLOT YOR SENATOR. ‘The senate vote on the first ballot for United States Senator today wus as follows: Oglesby, 2; Palmer, 24. ‘The senate then adjourned until tomorrow.

Col. MeFarland. the king's chamberlain, ad- mits that his case is very serious, and Mr. "Me- Kinley, Hawaiian consul general here, stated at midnight that the king was likely to die at any moment. Rev. Frank H. Church of Trinity Episcoal Church, of which denomina- tion King kt is a member, administered communion last night, though the ding was then unconscious and had been so for hours. Kalakaua was to have left here this week for Honolulu on the U. 8. flagship Charleston. He returned here last week from a trip through southern California. He was in poor health when hearrived in San 0 some time ago, and itis believed that the banquets and receptions which he has been upon to attend are the cause of his it alarming condition. It was not until yesterday, when sutlering froma Brights divense, tant thet tree suffering from Ve dis t the true nature of bis malady was known here. At 3 o'clock this morning Dr. Geo. W. Woods, naval medical inspector, said therc was not one chance in a thousend that the king would ever recover, and that death would probably occur in a few hours. ‘THE PATIENT'S REMARKABLE VITALITY. At 6:30 o'clock Medical Inspeetor Woods said to an Associated Press reporter that there had been little if any change in Kalakaua's con- dition. There was every indication of approaeh- ing deat, but owing to the marveloyp vitality which the pationt was displaying he might live it Dr. twenty-four hours longer, presed the opinion that a decided the worse would occur before noon. Dr. Woods did not believe it possible for the gain consciousness before he died. Stimulants were still being administered and his life was being prolonged for a fow hours in this manner. ———_ STOCKS DULL AND STEADY. First Prices Show Little Slight Rally Fellows.

Chichester, » Kepublican Contestant, Seated by the House. Hantrorp, Cowx., Jan. 20.—A large number of politicians and spectators gathered at the capitol this morning to watch the develop- ments in the political situation. The house met about 10 o'clock, and after the preliminary business received a report from the committee on contested elections in the Wilton case, where Chichester (republican) was counted out because of “for” on the republican ballots. The committee reported in favor of Mr. Chi- chester, and the vote of yeas and nays resulted in seating Mr. Chichester,-151 to 83.

Mervin made s short address to the senate, explaining that cireumstances over which he had no con- trol kept him in that office longer than expected, and that thereby he was pluced in a most delicate position. No one would welcome Mr. Alsop more cheerfully than he after the general assembly should declare him elected. Until then he himself should hold the office, and when it appeared his duty he should come and take up the gavel. He then called the President pro tem., Senator Read, to the chair retire an . ‘At 11 o'clock both branches of the legislature roceeded to vote for United States Senator. the republicans of both branches voted for Senator Platt, while the democrats scattered. The democrats will hold a caucus tonight to decide who shall be complimented by their votes. Joint session will be held tomorrow. ———— GLASS FACTO! The Suspension Caused by Overstocked Market and Low Prices. Prrrsaung, Pa., Jan. 20.—Word has been re~ ceived in this city that nearly a dozen window glass factories have shut down on account of ‘an overstocked market and low prices. The United Glas Company has shut down all the factories under its control and other outside factories are expected to follow. This depres- sion is attributed partly to the failure of the proposed courolidation to be called the Ameri- can Glass Company. Secretary Lerfiler of the Window Glass Association attributes the failure of this scheme to the wide publicity given to it in the newspapers. EELS ates MAY RACE AT DUNDEE LAKE. SHUT DOWN.

Two bills were reported favor- ably, one adding in the bill passed last session providing for general incorporation in the Dis- trict after the words “or for the purpose of is- suing titles to real estate” the words “or for the Purpose of carrying on fire insurance business.” The addition will give to the fire insurance companies the right to make their charters per- petual instead of, as is the case now, compelling them each year to close up the companies and obtain new charters.

The oficers claim that he is one of the cleverest confidence men who ever reached this city. The officers here first heard of him several weeks ago when Inspector Swindells of the detective corps received a letter from the chief of police of New Orleans concerning the al- leged divine. According to that information Glick was arrested there on charges of using forged checks. He settled with the parties and was paroled to appear later on. He skipped townand failed toappear.

About 7 o'clock in the evening the officers called at the Anderson and informed the “Kev.” Glick that he was wanted by Inspector Swin- dells. “What's up now?” he asked the officers. UNDER ARREST.

In conducting the investigation the officers learned that many of the statements made in the article referred to were correct. ‘Last night the distinguished prisoner slept in the sixth precinct police station and this morn- ing he was taken to headquarters.
