CONTROL OF THE SENATE.
The Probabilities as Calculated at
Washington.
The Democrats Likely to Continue in
Power Senator Hill's Candidacy
Rears on the Situation-New Senators
From New States.
Washington, Oct. 3.—The control of the
Senate after March 4, 1895, is more in
volved in the coming elections than would
appear at first indication. The present
congress will see the terms, of thirty sena
tors expire, of whom fourteen 'are demo
crats. Those whose terms will expire aro
as follows:
Democratsß.erfy, of Arkansas, Butler
of South Carolina, Caffrey of Louisiana,
Camden of West Virginia, Coke of Texas,
Walsh of Georgia, Harris of Tennessee,
Hunton of Virginia, Lindsa.v of Kentucky,
Martin of Kansas, McLaureu of Missis
sippi. McPherson of Ketv Jersey, Morgan
of Alabama and Hansom. of North Caro
lina. . .
Republicans Carey of Wyoming, Chand
ler of New Hampshire, Cullom of Illinois,
Dixon of Rhode lsiand, Dolplt of Ore on.
Frye of Maine, Higgins of Delaware. Hoar
of Massachusetts, Manderson of Nebraska,
McMillan of Michigan. Pettigrew of South
Dakota. Power of Montana. Shoup of
Idaho, Washburn of Minnesota, Wilson of
lowa and Walcott of Colorado.
Senators Lindsay, Caffrey and Morgan
ha e already been elo ted to succeed them
selves. A democratic successor has been
chosen for Mr. Hunton and a republican to
suceed Mr. Wilson of lowa.
There is no concern felt by either party
except in the states of Delaware, New
Jersey, Illinois, Kansas and Nebraska.
Senator Butler, if he does not succeed him
self, will be defeated by Gov. Tillman, v.ho
may vote with the democrats. The repub
licans are making every effort to elect a
successor to 1 Martin of Kansas and
McPherson of Now Jersey. There is a
.possibility that they .will succeed in both
states, but the probabilities are that they
will succeed in neither.
The democrats arc hopeful of filling the
seats now held by Cullom of Illinois and
Higgins of Delaware with men of their
own party, and it begins to look reasonably
certain that Bryan, the boy orator ot the
Platte,will succeed Mandersouin Nebraska.
Colorado can possibly be placed i:i the
doubtful column, for it begins to Took as if a
populist might be elected to succeed Wal
cott. Inasmuch as Walcott is a republican,
and it will take a fusion of democrats and
populists to defeat him, itcan be reasonably
expected that his successor will -veto with
tho democrats on party measures.
There are now eighty-live semitfrs, with
vacancies existing in the states of Mon
tana,. Wyoaiiue and Washington. The
present complexion of the Senate is -<:! dem
ocrats, 37 republicans and 5 populists. Dur
ing the coming session the three vacancies
will, in all probability, be tilled by repub
licans, in which event tho republican
strength will number forty. Now. if the
republicans should lose Cullom ami Hig
gins and gain Martin and McPherson,
which is doubtful, the democrats would
still have a majority, but the balance of
power would largely be in the hands of the
populists, Allen, Jones of Nevada, Kyle,
Defter and Stewart. In the meautime
Now Mexico and t'tah are likely to send
senators to the Fifty-fourth congress, but
tho indications are that democrats will lie
sent from these two new states. This
would give the democrats forty-seven, and
place them in control,of a quorum, as forty
fiMfconstitute a majority. The addition of
lour new senators will make tho member
ship ninety-two, in \ylpieh ease forty-seven
would, bo npeesspry for the control.. And
should the democrats gain these now
states it would give them' tho required
number.
Thou comes a problematical election of
Senator Hill as governor of New York.
Democrats are counting strongly on this,
but aro very doubtful if they'will have con
trol of the general assembly. In case of
Hill s election he will undoubtedly appoint
a democratic successor to himself in thfi
Senate immediately after his inauguration,
but at the next session.of the assembly, if it
should be republican, it will choose a repub
lican senator. It must not bo overlooked
m the anxiety about the Hotiso that the
domination pf .the democrats in the Senate
is Seriously threatened. The populists, if
they should combine, would practically be
alle to dictate terms in the matter of or
panbation and formation of committees,
lint at present a careful forecast gives the
democrats the upper body. •
The republicans have never shown their
rower of mendueity to such an extent as at
the present time. The reports they send
out from Washington are incorrect, and
arp calculated to make it appear that there
is great friction between the democratic
campaign corhmittee and the President.
Hue statement which has been sent broad
cast is that the President's letters have
been cut out of the campaign books. An
other is that Senator Faulkner is profligato
in the expenditure of money, and in the
New York Tribune devotes a column to
" hat it terms the disorganized condition of
the democratic headquarters. This is to
be credited least of all. Nothing that
Senator Faulkner has in.charge could be
disorganized. He is an able executive and
his work is far ujoro systematic than that
of bis rivhl, Chnirinan Babcock, at the
head of tho republican committee,

A HORRIBLE CRIME CONFESSED.
Two Men Implicated in the Murder of a
Girl.
Raleigh, N. 0.. Oct. 4.—George Mills,
who lias been on trial hero for his life
during tho past three days, for the seduc
tion and murdc-r of his niece, confessed the
crime this evening.
He was sent to the grand jury room as a
witness against Jack Wimberly, the father
of the murdered girl, audit xvas in this
•jury room that he made the confession.
He told a story full of the
most horrible and revolting de-
How, at the instance of
the girl's father, jack Wimberly, who had
saia to him, ‘;Take lana away and never
bring her back here alive," he induced her
to accompany him to a neighboring holme.
On the way was an old unoccupied house.
Into this house ho took her, aod told her to
take the contents of a bottle he handed her
and it would produce an abortion, tho girl
having been betrayed, and preg
nant. ■•The drug.'’ho said, was lauda
num, which Wimberly had obtained for tho
purpose.' l
Tho poor girl drank the drug, but it did
not have the dcsiiad effect.
OI.CBBED TO Of.ATXI.
Mills then, so he says, struck her seven
times with a club. :-ho screamed and
plead, but away in that lonely house at the
dead of night, no one could hear her. lie
finally left her or dead and returned with
the tale that somebody had murdered
••lana.’’ and threatened to kill him. The
girl was not dead, she lived ten days, but
never regained consciousness. Mills was
arrested and jailed. He is almost an idiot,
halt blind un 1 half witted.
His trial will (outinuo, notwithstanding
his confession. The jury trying him know
nothing of the confession.
Jack \\ imberly was jailed this afternoon.
He was the principal witness against Mills.
Now Mills will be the principal witness
against him and the lives of both aro at
stake.
NOT TO GO EV DEFAULT.
Mrs. J. Coleman Drayton to File an
Answer to Her Husband’s Suit.
New York, Oct. 4.—-Mrs. J. Coleman
Drayton to-day made her first public state
ment regarding the divorce suit against her
through her counsel, Herbert A. Shipman.
The delay in filing au answer to Mr.
Drayton's suit for divorce caused many re
ports that the case would go by default,
which would mean an admission of
the charges against her. According to the
New Jersey law, tho time for filing an an
swer expires on Saturday, and up to the
presentmo papers have appeared in the
court. It is not probable either that any
will be filed this week, arrangements hav
ing been made whereby a longer time is ob
tained.
Next to the question as to whether any
reply will be filed, the greatest interest is
in what Mrs.- Drayton will say in her de
fense. Mr. Shipman outlined to-day what
will bo said in the answer, and at the same
time he added a positive statement that
the suit will bo vigorously contested.
"Mrs. Drayton will certainly file a reply
to her husband’s suit,” said Air. Shipman.
‘•There has never lor a moment been any
doubt about that. The question of whether
a reply will be entered has been left en
tirely to the judgment of her counsel. Mrs.
Drayton's reply will boa full and absolute
denial of each and every allegation of her
husband’s complaint.”
The attorney declined to state when tho
reply would bo filed, but added: "It will
not be on Oct. t>, nor will we be in default.
In eases of this kind counsel always ar
range between themselves for the filing of
all necessary papers. This is a case that
will tic settled in the courts.”
Mr. Drayton is living quietly at Bemards
viile, N. .1., with his children after having
spent tho summer at Bar Harbor. Mrs.
Drayton is supposed to bo in Paris. The
Aster family is scattered about at various
fail resorts. Mrs. Astor is at Lenox, and
Mr. and Mrs. John Jacob Astor aro with a
party of friends in Canada.
Firm determination to light the case has
now beeuexpressbd by botli sides and a
complete-airing of the whole affair will
probably occur soon in‘tho courts.
A GONIEST IN DUVAL.
The Straishtouts Kick Over the Closing
of the Polla.
Jacksonville, Fla., Oct. 4.—The election
in Duval county , will bo contested by the
straightouts. To day they secured a tem
porary injunction from Judge Call restrain
ing the hoard of canvassers of returns from
issuing certificates of election to any county
officers. The notice of injunction was
served ten minutes before the board had
completed its work. The argument will be
made on Saturday a3 to. whether the in
junction shall be made permanent.
The bill of eompialnt declares that the
action of the. inspectors in closing
the polls in five city wards
disfranchised more than half of the
votere of the county. The injunction re
strains the board Jcorn proceeding further
With th 6 canvass, hence the canvass can
not be sent to the secretary of state, who
issues tho certificates to the senators and
representatives. If the courts hold that
there was uo election, the anti-senator and
representatives will have 110 prima facie
seats, but anew election will have to be
called by the governor within not less than
fifteen and not more than forty days. A
rumor is current that the intention of Gov.
fcirehell is to remove Sheriff Broward for
placing deputies in the polls, ar.d there are
thirteen anti-candidates in the field for
recommendation by their executive com
mittees for the governor’s appointment.

eration of labor, in convention here to-day,
declared a boycott on the products of the

that the sydicate refused to employ union
labor.
A boycott was also declared on the
Brown-llumiltoii slioO manulacturing com

IRON AND STEEL.
A Hopeful State of Affairs Eaported by
a Review.
Cleveland, 0., Oct. 4.—The Iron Trade
Review says: “The most important de
velopment of the week in iron and steel is
the announcement of tho transplanting to
the United States of the Otto-lloffman sys
tem of coke making, With by-product re
covery, and the decision to erect the
first plant at Johnstown, Pa. This step
is significant of the determination
of the steel makers of this country to bo
armed with every economy against all
competition. Tho course of the market in
the week under review lias brought more
surface indications of a lotting down from
the activity of later August and early
September. But there are other consider
ations than the passing phase developing
week by week that must be regarded in
making up a judgment as to tiie future.
The accumulation of demands for ma
terial, from a multitude of sources,
lew calling for any large amount, is not to
be mistaken for the pace which recovering
business is to take on. Nor is a letting
down from the s aloof production which
these accumulated demands made neces
sary for a time, to be taken as a sign of
arrested recovery. TLo great sources of
strength to tho iron and steel market are
yet to 1)0 heard from, mid they may come
iuto line with any month.
ENGAGEMENTS FOB MART MONTHS,
“in spite of the evidences of wenlcness
that crop out hero and there, many fur
mi' \s report chgagements for months
ahead, and along with the additions to tho
list of modixar.-cthero is a limit to tho
amount of spot ifon offered, and no indica
tion of an accumulation of stocks. Yet tho
month of September brought a decline of
fi.’> cents in Bessemer Iron, and of about !A)
cent* on some “grades of foundry iron.

week have brought out low prices, and

to a running mate to beat the record of

At 4:30 o'clock the great gelding was
brought on the track and was given a

Sun.
Savannah, Ga., Oct. 4.—The attention of
tho board of education ta called to the

Tho children's health should ho con

jurious fur them to play out on those
grounds without a bit of shelter
from the burning rays of the sun.
Lvcn on a cool day I do not think it would
be pleasant to stand ip the sun for half an
hour. Then ttiey are compelled to form in

teen minutes; so by the time the last poor
little creature is within too school lie must
