Blaine was afraid that Edmunds would

DEATH’S GRIM VOTE.
lCn Httra Snilun wilt Make flare of »
Kejmbllran Majority.
Washington. Fo\ p.—There has been
but little said of la‘e about the sice of
the republican majority in the next
home. The raattor has not been settled
absilutelv vet. but it is apparent that
the republican majority will bo five or
hix unices they foil to get the certificates
in tho doubtful West Virginia districts
anil that for Evans in the disputed Ten
nessee district. It is a remarkable thing
that at this late day the latter should
•.ill be in doubt. Most dtmo.rats. how-
e er. are ready to conoede that the re
publican* of West Virginia will gut their
certificates.
It was said some tinoo ago that Cluney,
tho democrat in tho fifth Ca ifornia dis
trict, who w a' given the certificate, hqd
become satisfied that Phelps; thu
can. had ooen legally elected, and was
ready to surrender the certificate. This
lias lV-en found not to bo the ciw*. Clu-
ne\. it is undur.'tood, will insist upon
the legality of his own election, and the
repullicH.is will try to unseat him when
they get their machinery at work. This
will ha\e the democrats 159 t.t:ong with
the protabiii y that the republicans will
have nil the rest. The republicans have
K>3 uiumLers unquestioned. 'I ho two in
West Virginia ar.* still in dispute, and
oue in T< nncnsce, thus, though it is ex
pected that tliu lost three will go with
tho majority, the lepuhlican* are, fora
fnet, assured of but one m. re than a ma
jority in the house.
Tbit is working on the minds of the
mem tors in the house with all the un
certainties a< to tiie hour of death, and
is more weighty than unv other consid
eration in convincing ther that there
serve out his unexpire 1 term, i he sta e
uient so terrorized the w< man that she
fell to tho floor in a faint, which was
followed by comp e:e pros rati n.
The e sta'euit nt* come rom tho n igh-
bors. and are verified by Dr. B. F. Lip-
pelt, who is he a lending physician, wlio
state* that thu condition of Mrs. .Stomp
is such that the least noise ca *ses her to
believe Cherrington is coming to im
prison her. it is a grave question a* to
whether she will ever recover.

Berlin, Feb. 9.—The Wiseman expe

PRINCE KRAPOTKIN^ VISIT.
Th* Famous Ralston Kill* Coming to Visit
tno pmu»*—
London, Feb. 9.—Prince Kropotkin,
who s a prominent figuro at every to
ciolist gathering in this city, has decided
to visit the United States in tho interett
of tho cause he has c spou-ed. Tho prince,
who fooks older than ho really Is, lias
air of distinction which gives him great
infliu nee over th.* masses. His face,
whi h is refined, bears traces of thought
and suffering. He was tom in 1814,
and he enured the Russian service at
the ago of twenty. Two year* later he
attended a meeting of the international
revel itiauists at Vienna, and was soon
afterward imprisoned in the dungeons
of St. Peter an t felt. Paul, where he wrote
hi* lii tory of the (Halil Period. Had
it not been for that Vienna meeting he
might have i>een. instead of an exile, a
shining light in the politics of his native
Russia. He has lx*rn one of the most
eite ive and successful Siberian *x
plorers.
