He put his wife in bed, tied a handker- chief about her head and made an effort to frighten off the officers by saying she had the smallpox, but the officers were not so easily frightened. They soon had the alleged smalipox patient out of bed, and under the bed clothing they found a demt- john of whisky, while in her hand she had a cup of whisky. Then the woman wanted to whip all the officers, and was only subdued when threat- ened with arrest. Abe plead not guilty in the Police Court tcday, and after he had heard the witnesses give their testimony he had the pleasure of contradicting several of them, but he ad- mitted he had sold 25 cents worth of the liquor to one of the number. Judge Kimball fined him $300 or four months. Jacob Eller was charged with second of- fense unlicensed bar. He was formerly in the beer bottling business, but lately he has beer conducting a “speak easy" on 9th street. He was arrested and fined for this, and now it {s alleged he renewed the busi- ness after being convicted. Lawyer Sillers, his counsel, demanded a jury trial.

It is Many Thousands More Than the Republicans Wanted. STAY-AT-HOMES WERE RESPONSIBLE The Dominant Party is Confronted With a Serious Situation. ABOUT SENATORIAL CHANCES Special Dispatch to The F¥ening Star. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., November 12.— The republicans carried Michigan last week as It bas never been carried before. The victory was larger by many thousands thgn they expected; larger, In fact, than they wanted. The plurality is in the neighbor- hood of 100,009, against a previous best record of 54,000, ard the next legislature will kave a democratic representation of only one member in the house. An exam- ination of the returns shows how the vic- tory was won. The democratic stay-at- homes did it. In only three districts, the first, second and fifth, did the republicans make gains, while in all the districts the democratic vote fell far below the vote of two years ago. In the eleverth district, for instance, two years ago the democrats polled 16,038 votes, and this year 3,521, In the twelfth district the vote two years ago was 16, and this year 4,245. In_ the severth district the aemocratic vote drop- pel from 16,i25 to , and in the eighth from 15,886 to 5, . In the fourth the drop was from 20,245 to 10,016; in the fifth from 20,120 to 10,016; in the ninth from 13, 4,760, and in the first from 20,239 to The republican vote was much below t of last year, but the republican loss did not begin to compare with that of the demo- cratic. The republican decrease is easily accounted for from the fact that this is an off yeer, and in those districts where republicans were sure of success little ef- fort vas made to get out a full vote. The democratic siump is attributable to the hard times, disgust with the administra- tion, and, more than anything else, to the referee system, which deadened enthusiasm and engendered apathy. In distributing the federal patronage in Michigan Don M. Dick- inson was given a monopoly. He used the patronage in the effort to build up a per- sonal machine. He ignored local leaders and managers and in recommending appoint- ments took advice from the referees whom he appointed for each district and did not consult the wishes of those who in the past won such victories for the democracy as they can claim. It is noticeable that in the districts where the referee system pgoved most obnoxious the democratic slump is heaviest. This is especially noticeable in the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, ninth, eleventh and twelfth districts. Another potent in- fluence in the election was Fisher's affilia- tion with the A. P. A. He denied all rela- tions with that secret order, but the fact that he had been coquettins was too well established to make his denial effective. ‘The Catholics did not go near the polls as a protest. Repoblicans Seem Troubled. Now that the republicans are victorious they are really troubled to know what to do. The situaticn for them is more serious than they are willing to admit. It will be impossible to shift the smallest froction of responsibility upon the wicked de 0 for the sins of omission or comn the next | and grevious are sure to be committed. the me of the house about 30 have previous legislative experience, while will be entirely to the law-mal business.

Aldrich this city, a new member, went speakership race and won against several experienced legisiators who had aspirations, but it 1s hardly probable any new member will win this year, even if any such enter the race. The speakership contest will undoubtedly be one of the most interesting episodes nm ssion, and the large number of meim- ho were not expected to be in it will te matters very materially. Whe Senatorial Serambte On the senatorial question the same con- ditions exist. Senater McMillan will un- doubtedly be re-elected without contesi, but for the short term senatership it is dit- ferent. The avowed Widates are Julius Caesar Burrows, Senator John Pation, S. 8. Oles,Sam'l M. Stephenson and Jay Hub- bell. Burrows and Patton have been mak- ing an active stumping canvass; Olds has been working in a way peculiar to himselt, while the upper peninsuia candidat phenson ana Huvbed, hi been wi to hear something dr he tlood of mein- bers whom nobody ever expected would be in a position to cut any ice in the sena- erial contest has found the fences down in every direc ly for Olds and Burrows. re old and ex! enced polit e not in the habit ot wasting energy where the prospects for a return on the investment are dubious. ‘Phe tidal wave has been a good thing for Patton, and while th ago he was not in it to a his prospects now a mpaign he made f tour in- cluded all went in- to the doubtiul districts and those in whic! ht the democrats had a cinch, nose which were looked upon publican, and everywhere he went jon he made was most fayor- thi y Patton's Chances Appear Good, With a legislature practically unanimous, containing at least twenty-five more v than the republicans counted on, on ballot, the fact that Patton is in possession of the senatorial seat, and that he is em- inently qualified for the office, will be an important factor. Gov. Rich will be in- terested In having his choice ratified by the legislature, and the executive intluence will be brought to bear In Patton's favor. A potent argument against Burrows will be that as the next Congress will be republi- can, he will be of far mcre use to the state in the House than in the Senate, especially as he is in line for the chairmanship of the ways and means committee. As between Burrows and Patton, viewed in the light of recent events, Patton is ahead, and his strength will in It is needless to ay that there dless possibilities in the way of dark-horse candidates. ocean Charge Dismissed, The court-martial ordered in the case of Capt.

An open meeting will be held on Saturday, Dscember 1, at 600 G stze>t northwest by Potomac Diviston, No. 171, of the Onder of R. R, Telegrapher’. Invitations have been sent Cut to all “railroaders,” giving partlea- lars of the event, which will be something like a club “smoker.” ————— Pitcher Sweeney, who killed Cornelius Me- Manus, was last week sent to the peniten- tiary In California for eight years. “The queer phases of politics are well ex- emplified in the case of Goy.-elect Busiel of New Hampshire,” said R.<H. Morgan of Cencord, at the Riggs House this morning. “Mr. Busiel is a manufacturer, and up to the time of Cleveland’s first election was one of the most ardent democrats in the state. He was fond of announcing himself as a party man irrevocably, who would fol- low its declarations no matter where they led him. . When the tariff policy dictated by Mr. Cleveland was announced as the creed to which all faithful democrats should sub- scribe, Mr. Busiel found that his personal interests could not permit him to subscribe to such a suicidal doctrine, and he im- mediately changed his political base and became a republican. It is notorious that converts invariably become enthusiasts in behalf of their new faith, be it political or reiigicus, and Busiel was no exception to the rule. His course was aggressive, and he became one of the republican leaders. Everybody feels that he will make one of the best governors New Hampshire ever had, and I am sure of it.” “The secret service of the French repub- lic is generally considered to be the most perfect spy system in the world,” said Oliver Beach, a travelling man of St. Louis, at the Ebbitt yesterday, “but in my humble opinion the department of private intelli- gence supported by Mexico surpasses it beth in extent and intricacy. A couple .of years ago 1 was accidentally permitted to get an insight into its workings, and I was astounded. One would imagine that a great private detective agency would be a neces- sity only in a country like Russia, where the life of the ruler Is constantly threat- ened, but down In Mexico there is a system of espionage that extends to every part of it. The motives of every public man in Mexico are not only perfectly well known to the government, but every visitor is subject to scrutiny. It was President Diaz who first estabiished the chain of secrecy that now holds ail the people in its links. Every now and then one will be surprised to see a body of Mexican troops hurried oif to scme remote place in a far-off state. None will know the reason, but the fact will suon become known that the government has prevented an embryo revolution from gaining strength and force.

A man named John Hor- ley has been residing in Monterey for sev- eral years, and is prominent. Some time ayo he took a great interest in having Sut- tler, who was wanted in Austin, extradited. Lust week Horley was arrested under orders sent from Mexico City. It turns out that Horley did something out in Llinois twelve years ago, and is still wanted there to an- swer the charge. It is aa even bet that the liinois authorities will get him, Yes, sir, the Mexican se-ret service is the g. atest of them all, and its ramifications extend everywhere over the republic, and a good Ways on this side of the border.” “The Astors seem to be Intent on going into the hotel business with a vengeance,” said Harvey S, Cranch of New York, at the Arlington this morning. “The Waldorf is a pretty good specimen of a modern hostelry, and cost a mighty sight of money, but John Jacob Astor is going to put another along- side of it that will put it ‘completely in the shade.

DISCORD RULED AMONG DEMOCRATS Review of the Probable Political Results That Will Follow. ASPIRANTS FOR THE SENATE Correspondence of The Evening Star. RALEIGH, N. C., November 12, 1894. The fusion majority on the state ticket is close upon 22,000. W. H. Worth, popu- lst, is the new state treasurer; and the new justices of the supreme court are W. 'T. Faircloth, republican; David M. Furches, republican, and Walter A. Montgomery, in- dependent democrat. The latter was the special candidate of Chairman Marion But- ler of the populist party, who insisted on his being on the ticket. The republicans tried to make a fight on the question, and put up W. A. Guthrie or W. P. Bynum, jr., but the populist chairman had his will, and so Montgomery went on as the fusion rominee. Walter Clark, democrat, was elected by the greatest vote ever cast in the state for any candidate. The fusion- ists had him on their tickets, and so did the democrats, and he got all the votes. The populists esteem Clark very highly. His decision as to the election law is the cause of their regard. A. C. Avery, the tifth member of the supreme court, holds bis office four years longer, as there was no vacancy in his case. The fusionists elect six superlor court judges; the democrats failing to elect even one. There are twelve judges in all. Six will be voted for two years hence. The fusionists elect ten of the twelve solicitors. They failed to carry the fourth and elev- enth judicial districts. As to Congressmen, the fusionists elected Harry Skicrer in the first, William F. Stroud in the fourth, A. C. Shuford in the seventh, Romulus Z. Linney in the eighth and Kichmord Pearson in the ninth. The publicans re-elected Thomas Settle In the fifth, The democrats elected Frederick A. Woodard in the second and James A. Lock- hart in the sixth, They claim they heve elected John G, Shaw in the third. Chair- man Butier says in the latter case the offl- cial count is needed to settle the question, He declares that the odds are in favor of the clection of Cyrus Thompson, populist. So the democrats certainly failed to carry six districts, perhavs seven, and none of their successful men got 1,000 majority. It is feared by not_a few democrats that Shaw is beaten. Others say they expect if there is a contest in the second that Con- gress will throw cut Woodard, thus leaving Locknart a solitary democrat. Superior Organization Did It. The superior organization of the fusion- ists is what did the work. The democratic state chairman says he doubts whether, with three parties in the fleld and no fusion, the democrats would have won, as there has been a notable revival of republican | Senthnent In the state within the past six months. The republicans voted quite sol- idly and scratched very little. “The populist organization was remarkably fine. Chair- man Butler said to your correspondent that he obtained the names of all democrats in ate who were dissatisfied, and to these sent his paper regularly. Thus he sent out $7,000 copies a week. He made many con- verts. Then, too, the populists made a house-to-house canvass of the whole state,| and got the names of all their people. At each polling place they had a man with a book, who checked off the name of each of. their party. Such thorough work was never done betcre in this state. The organization was very far superior to that of the demo- erats, The demo>ratic speakers, as a rule, had small audiences, even where there were many of the ablest speakers. The populists would not go to hear them. The state com- mittee of democratic clubs was a faflure. There was no longer an opportunity to work “negro question,” for the negro was the balance of power, and the democrats wanted him as much as the fusionists. Two weeks before the election the word was passed as to what the negroes were to do— is, co vote for fusion nominees, And lid it, It is asserted that not 5,000 of 1,000 of them voted the democratic ticket. The absenteeis 1 on the part of the dem- ocrats was astounding. Their state chair- man tells me he thinks 30,000 of them did not vote. The amount of scratching was unprecedented. To show the loosening of the once firm party ties it may be stated that not a few of the scratchers boasted of what they had done. Causes of Democratic Discord. The truth is, the democrats were handi- capped. Nine-tenths of them are angry with Cleveland, angry with Congress, angry because of Senstor Ransom’s course, angry with Senator Jarvis because he brought up the question of “senatorial primaries,” and angry because cotton is 5 cents a pound. ‘The party is torn to pieces by d‘ssensions, some great, some pitifully small, but ail deadly in their effect. Had the legislature been democratic it is declared Ransum could not have been re- elected. Bot it is overwhelmingly fusion. There is 12 majority in the senate and 32 in the house, according to figures made today. it was agreed when fusion was consum- mated that the republicans and populists uid divide the ciice ‘0 the populist. ling inclined to be legislators, took those inations more largely, the republicans taking the county offi So there are about seven more populists than republicans lature, ‘hairman Butler gives res.

Your correspond- formed on high authority that the odds are nine to one that Jeter C. Pritchard, republican, will be the oth Senator. For a long time no one save Pritchard was named in this connection on the part of the repub- licans. Yihers Who Want to Be Senators. me Now, after the election, five others are named. First of these is A. E. Hatton, re- publican chairman, While his chances are by some of his purty considered next to those of Pritchard, yet they say he has not the oratorical and other ability necessary.

Dockery and some other republicans insisted that to the re- publicans should be given the nomination of three out of four supreme court justices. It looked at one time as if the whole con- ference would break up in a row. Then when the republican convention met there came near being more trouble. John B. Eaves, then republican state chairman, an- tagonized the movement. At one time Dock- ery, Thomas, Settle and others were about to throw up the sponge and join forces with Eaves. But a caucus was held the night before the convention and at the cau- cus the backbone of anti-fusion was broken, and Eaves was defeated and re- tired as chairman. But for that caucus the fusion policy would have been thrown into the convention, and it is declared that in such an event its defeat would have been certain, While in the opinion of the public, based upon the statements of some republicans, there is an agreement that there is an un- derstanding between Butler and Pritchard as to the United States Senate, yet some deny this and say Butler is not committed to any such plan, and that the republicans are not committed to Butler, but can vote for whom they please. Mott and Pritchard are untriendly. Dockery is irreverently termed a fossil by some republicans. Pritch- ard, a few years ago, was the originator of a movemeat which failed to establish a white republican party. He at that time calculated that such a party, eliminating the negro, would attract a great many dem- ocrats. Probable Contest of the Treas It may be that there will be a contest as to the election of the state treasurer. It is said this has begun in Chatham county, where the democrats claim that on the fusion ticket were the words, “state treas- urer,” whereas there should have been only the word “treasurer.” It may quite safely be predicted that this contest will not amount to anything. There are some, but not many, demo- crats Who are hopeful of a change in 1806, There is a movement for the formation or creation of a new party, by certain demo- crats. Mr. Stroud, fusion Congressman- elect in this district, tells me of this. The republicans elected to office In the counties will find it by no means easy to give bonds, as the commissioners are demo- erats and will require the very best bonds, and democrats are calling upon their party to go on no more bonds of republicans. The democrats two years ago began to have some little confidence in the negro as a voter. This year’s work of the negroes, in voting almost solidly for fusionists, has alienated the democrats from them as vot- ers, er. the republicans, in other words, want to put in a strong man. After Hatton, J. J. Mott, : n; H. G, Ewart, ex-Congressman, H. Dockery, ex-Congressman, are Pritchard is one of the finest speak- the republicans have. While in. the Jacure he was easily the leader of his party. vcthe democrats in many cases are dazed by their disaster. ‘They fear all sorts of thing. Most of all, they deplore the loss of the legislature. ‘The fusionists, they believe, will redistrict the state, repeal the county gcvernmeat law, make total changes in the management of the public institutions and amend the charters of some cities and towns so as to take the control out of democratic hands. Some democrats will have nothing to do with the populists, while others rather favor making some sort of terms with them, .in case the republicans want to make ‘too radical changes in the laws. Some demo- crats argue that two years hence there will be no populist party, but that these now in it must ally themselves either with the re- publicans or democrat: Some populists declare they do not intend to be extreme; that they are not republicans. The friends of H. G. Ewart intend to press him very earnestly for Senator. He is a member of the legislature, it being his second term. It is claimed that Ewart will have @ strong following in the west. He urged the fasion policy over six months ago, when the movement was really without form or substance, and when local republi- can leaders were afraid of it. He was a member of the fusion conference which met here last July, and was the originator of the caucus plan by which the agreement was made, Pasion Nearly Failed. Now that the republicans and populists are full of joy at the unparalleled success of their fusion plan, it may be stated that fusion came perilously near failing at its birth. The work was done when the popu- list state convention met, and prominent republicans met in conference with popu- Stele eee THE COURTS. - Court of Appeals—Chief Justice Alvey and Justices Morris and Shepard.
