THE KENTUCKY SENATORSHIP An Interesting Situation in the State Legislature. CLAIMS OF BOTH PARTIES The presence on the congressional scene of both Senator Blackburn and Congress- man Walter Evans of the Louisville district indicates that however the legislative tan- gle may finally straighten out at Frankfort, two prominent candidates for the position of Senator from Kentucky are now in this town. It is possible that neither may win, but that a sound money democrat will be Mr. Blackburn's successor. An Interesting Situation. The legislative situation is interesting. The republicans and democrats are exactly tied on joint ballot, leaving at present the balance of power in the hands of two popu- list members, one of whom was elected by the aid of republican votes, and the other by the aid of democratic votes. But this di- vision is to be changed next Saturday by the result of an election to be held that day in ene of the Louisville assembly districts, where a vacancy exists by reason of a res- ignation. A democrat—the only one elected in the city on the regular day in November—sur- rendered his certificate because of a cloud which hurg ever it. His republican oppo- rent, it turned out, secretly withdrew from the race only a few days before the election, leaving the democrat a walkover. A charge of improper influences was made, whereat the successful democrat, an estimable young man, to show that he had not himself been a party to anything improper, resigned his of- fice. He was promptly renominated by his party, and is being opposed by a popular re- publican. The result is doubtful. Ordinar- ily, of course, the district is democratic; but how this canvass will be affected by the un- usual importance attached to the result, and the personal matter which has brought it about, is a problem. Had the issue been fairly tried there, as in the other districts, on the regular election day, the republicans, as in the other districts, would have won. Col. Bradley, the republican candidate for governor, had over one hundred majority there. Both sides are making a tremendous effort to carry the day, the democrats upon the hypothesis that, if they win, the sena- torship will certainly be theirs. Not Conceded by Republicans. The republicans do not concede this. There are severa! contests in the house where they have a majority, and at least two of the cases, it is claimed, will war- rant a decision in favor of that side. So that, if this contention is correct, the Louis- ville contest is not so vital as the demo- crats insist. What Mr. Blackburn's Friends Say. The confidence in Mr. Blackburn’s re- turn on the part of his friends in case the democrats control the legislature is baseg very largely upon his personal strength, which 1s considerable. Even men who di fer radically with him on the silver ques- tion—men who refuse to accept him as a financier at all—jike him on_ personal grounds, and admit that on the other ques- tions he is a thoroughly representative democrat. They look upon his stand on the sliver question, while mistaken, as manly. He didn't try to straddle or evade the ques- tion. He went no further when there was no challenge whatever to such sentiments from anybody in the party than he goes row with those sentiments challenged by the leader of the party himself, issuing his mandate from the White House itself. The Senator, his friends claim, is a square man, who moves according to his lights, and under the influence of an incorruptibie sense of duty. They believe, too, that this sert of reputation will count in the demo- cratic caucus at Frankfort in his favor. Ground of RepubMean Confidence. Those republicans who expect to see Mr. Evans chosen Senator base their confidence on his high standing in the party, on his services to the party, and on his conceded ability. There are other strong men in the race on that side. Congressman Hun- ter, A. E. Willson of Louisville, and George Denny of Lexington, who is contesting the seat of W. C. Owens in the House, are actively in the feld.. Mr. Evans, how- ever, is the first republican ever to carry the Louisville district, which occurred last year, gained much reputation, and this he increased this year by carrying the dis- trict for the whole republican state ticket, and by securing from the city of Louis- ville next to a solid delegation in the legis- lature, Blackburn and Evans Contrasted. Mr. Blackburn and Mr. Evans, except in the matter of ability, which both possess, are utterly unlike each other. The one is a fervid orator of the Keutucky “type, y ready, Very aggressive and very eftectiv before any popular His tastes | ail of his svil. He is a capital mixer, and patronizes the race track, and knows both the bluffing and the cash value small pair ai cards. Mr. Evans, also a good mixer, is rather a studeny | than un orator, a cool, calculating man, acts hastil. r before j and a highly suc- des rather than has had long © ence in $ the commissioner of in- ternal revenue under President Arthur, and he was the republican candidate for Senator Hurn'’s brother, Dr. Blackburn, was to that office. Mr. Evans is a ative of Kentucky and about fifty-five years old. ee Badly Injured. John Ambush, colored, forty years old, wanted to cross the dangerous crossing of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad at 7th street northeast last night, but did not want to wait for the passage of an in- coming train. The gates were down at the time, so the police report, and John, think- ing he could get over in safety, made the attempt to do so, but was struck by the moving train. The engine struck him, seriously injuring his right side, shoulder and arm. The injured man was taken to his home on Wyle street and attended by Dr. War- ren. —___ St. Mark's Case. After a hearing extending through three weeks the case of Torbett and others against Bennett and others, involving the legality of the election of vestrymen of St. Mark's P. E. Church last Easter, was con- cluded and submitted to Chief Justice Bing- ham this afternoon, During the time the case was before the court thousunds of typewritten pages of testimony were read.

The suit of Herbert B. Gehr of Chicago against the Mexican Central Company for $50,000 Gamages for false imprisonment in the City of Mexico, which has been pending in the Cook county courts since 1892, is set for a hearing today, and several prominent Mexicans are already here in regard to the case. : he story of Mr. Gehr's imprisonment, and the subsequent efforts in his behalf oy the United States government, through Secretary of State James G. Blaine, is in- teresting. In June, 1890, an alleged rob- bery involving $7,500 took place in the City co in the office af the paymaster xican Central Railroad Company. aims that, without the issuance of a warrant, and without any reason for suspicion, all of the employes of the pay- rraster’s oflice, according to Mexican cus- arrested by the Mexican author- tom, w ities and sent to prison.

AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN Rector of St. Albans Has Resigned His Charga. Some Features of the Affair—Other Local Notes of Interest From Across the Bridge. Rev. Neilson Falls, for many years ree- tor of St. Alban’s Episcopal Church, above Georgetown on the Tenleytown road, has severed his connection with ‘the church. Some misunderstanding with, members of his parish, it 1s said, led to Mx. Falls’ resig- nation. The difficulties haye been recently under investigation, as a Star’reporter was informed, by Rev. Dr. Addison of Trinity parish. St. Alban’s is a small bul sélf-sustaining ehurch, It is situated, above the Massachu- setts avenue extension; gpgosite Woodley Inn. Mr. Falls lives In the parsonage ad- jacent thereto. He is in government office, his church duties not requiring his exclusive attention. Seriously Injured. While being driven down the Tenleytown road yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock a horse belonging to E. E, Imlay ran away, detaching the shafts from the axle of ihe wagon and throwing’ the driver, Benj. Greene (colored), out on the granite block pavement near the Tenleytown electric power house. The singletree remained hanging to the traces on the horse and kept up the fright by striking him repeatedly in his wild run and creating a great noise. ‘The horse was not caught until he had ex- hausted himself down in Georgetown. Greene, the driver, who {s seventy years old, was seriously injured. His contact with the stone roadway was for le. He was taken to the Emergency Hospital. Greene lives at 1328 15th street. Novel Entertaiment. ‘There was a literary and gastronomic en- tertainment last night at the Gay Street Baptist Church, attended with novel fea- tures, one of them making the price of ad- mission as many pennies as the applicant was old in years. Little silken perfumed begs had previously been sent all members ot the church and into these were dropped the admission cents, the whole being left at the entrance door. The affair was very successful. Of course no one was allowed to count at once the pennies brought in by the ladies. The little bags were shufiled until th lost their identity. Electric Plant. * The new machinery for the combined Electric Light and Pagyer and Georgetown and Tenleytown Railroad Company's plants, to be placed in position In the Dent foundry buildings on Water street, from which place both plants are hereafter to be operated, is expected very shortly. Thé Georgetown and ‘Tenieytown com- pany’s present station will be abandoned entirely as a power house and kept only as a repository for cars, The extension of the plants, made neces- sary through the adoption of the new power site, will be eifected through the conduit system.
