S§XATORSHIP NOW BRING DISCUSSED—TWO SETS OF CAXDI- DATES TO CHOOSE FRox. Correspondence of The Evening Star. Sax Faaxctsco, Nov. 22, 1802. The result of the presidential vote in Cali- fornia has been in astate of uncertsinty ever since the election, but it is now pretty definitely | settled that Cleveland has received a small | plurality. There are only a few remote interior | precincts to hear from, and it is conceded that | | their vote will not turn the scale. | This outcome was foreshadowed in my letters | to Tux Stan prior to the ele .on, although it was impossible to get confirmation of the Prophecy from democratic sources. No demo- erat believed it possible that California would [leave the republican column. The man | who abstains from political prophecy is | to be commended, but there were too} | many little currents of popular feeling that had | changed their course and were cutting new | channels toward the democratic flood. } | high tariff bad become immensely unpopular. The people were tired of theirlong enslavement to the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, which has nearly always worked through the republican party. President Harrison had | been unfortunate enough to offend the people of Oakiand—a republican stronghold—on his visit to the Pacific const. This last was a small matter. but it cost him a few bundred votes. ‘The republicans throughout the state had nom- inated some very weak men. All these things were noticeable, and, together with hard times, which caused & desire for a change, were the reasons for democratic victory. conse- quences are democratic presidential electors, four democratic Congressmen out of the seven, and « democratic legislature by « majority of two on Joint ballot, which means democratic United States Senator to succeed Mr. Felton.

Ex-Gov. Luce is Making = Fierce Fight, but Without Encouraging Prospects. Cotresvondence of The Evening Star. Gaaxp Rarips, Micu., Nov. 28, 1892. Asthe time approaches for the legisiative session to open the interest increases in the senatorial question. Both Senator Stockbridg: who desires # re-election, and ex-Gor. Cyrus G. Luce, who is ambitious to succeed to the seat, are making a very vigorous canvass, but in this direction Mr. Stockbridge has a decided advantage over his rival by reason of the very efficient strokes he put in early in the season. When the legislative conventions were being held Senator Stockbridge wae not slumbering, but in every part of the state he had his repre- sentatives making the ‘arrangements for the nomination of law makers who ‘would be friendly to his interests. Mr. Luce was also actively engaged in the early part of the game and in the same direction, but his work was not #0 effectively done. In every district the conflicting claims between Stockbridge and Luce were the issues in the nomination of candidates for the legislature, and when the last convention had been held ‘Senator Stock- bridge was several lengths ahead. In the cam- paign both candidates were on the stump and oth were especialiy interested in the fate of the legislative candidates pledged to them re- tively. Mr. Luce manifested his interest in bis followers by stumping for them and Mr. Stockbridge helped his candidates not only by making speeches in their behalf, but also in contributing to the expense of their cam- paigns. After election and when it was known who was elected and who defeated Senator Stockbridge still maintained that he was far ahead of Mr. Luce and pronounced Mr. Luce’s claim of having fifty-three sure votes a gigantic bluff. Mr. Stockbridge says that when the re- publican members of the legislature go into caucus that Luce will not have above ten votes, and he points out where Luce has made mis- takes in his calculations. In this county, for insfince, Luce claims three votes, but ‘as a matter of fact it is well known thit the three men claimed by Luce were nominated as Btockbridge men and were elected.

From an early hour the galleries of the church began to Sil with ministers and by the Prose- ing apparently had no effect on the attendance.

Dr. Booth then made the point of order that | the protest made by Dr. Briggs Monday was | menace to the existence of the court and could not, therefore, be considered.

Mr. Robert Rogers and family have removed from Brookland to Washington, but expect to return in the spring and have their own heme built in University Heights. ‘The Messrs. Chilton have broken ground for two more new houses in West Brookland. ‘The recent fire at the residence of Dr. Frank T. Howe of University Heights is another ill tration of the need of some sort of a fire engine in this vicinity. It was only through presence of mind and the herculean efforts of the tamily and guests that the beautiful home was saved from entire destruction, and this is the fifth narrow escape from a dissstrous conflagration in the neighborhood within a short time. ‘The Brookland Banjo and Guitar Club isabout being organized under the instruction of Mrs. A. 8.

After the Au- rora club disbanded, Taylor went to the consin-Michigan League and led that body in fielding. Late in the season Jim Hart made a trip to Oshkosh just to see his man Taylor work. He was not pleased with him at the time. but must have changed his mind since, as he has signed him and will give him a trial least. The pitching department bas been well taken care of. One of the additions is Pitcher Manck of the Birmingham clnb of the Southern League. Jim Hart's brother is president of that the plaver was signed. He is said to pos- sess speed and excellent control of the ball and should prove a valuable man. Then Gus Maginnis of the Seattle club bas been signed. He has speed and a good drop ball, and Tony Mullane,who hasseen him work, rates him as a first-class man, EASTERN CLUB CHANGES. It is claimed that there will be some notable changes in the make up of the eastern clubs. Brooklyn may lose Broutbers and Ward, and ‘Tucker and Quinn from Boston may replace them.

Shedd, who defined the meaning of the word “disclaimer.” A langh was precipi- tated by his statement that Dr. Briggs was not guilty of falsehood, but of self-contradiction. Dr. Hastings, the venerable president of the faculty with which defenaant is connected, did not mince words in claiming tl ontained new matter. Said he: Hastings to order,” exclaimed William P. Worrall, Col. Shephard’s private secretat oT man, ‘The effect of Mr. Worrall's point was that Dr. Hastings wax cautioned to use milder language. He continued by affirming that Dr. Briggs should be his own interpreter, and, as he has disclaimed the charge the charge should be dropped. A vote was taken and the motion was carried by the decisive vote of 70 to 49. The seventh charge suffered the same fate by about the same vote. Col, McCook asked that an exception to the court's action be entered on the record in be- half of prosecuting committee. Just before adjournment Dr. Briggs called attention to the fact that the court must dimin- ish in numbers daily unless provision was made for permitting those necessarily absent at one or more sessions to retain their privilege of voting. suggested that the moderator be empowered to grant leave of absence for cause. “I nm willing to leave it to the honor of any Juror,” he said, “to abstain from voting on every queation of which he has not heard both sides. If this is not done we shall dwindle into rump court so small that its verdict will be received with no respect.” Lawyer McCook answered that the court must ‘abide by the provisions of the book of discipline. He was willing to accept any limi- tation of time in presenting his case that might be fixed by the presbytery, provided the same restrictions were put upon Dr. Briggs.
