Sept. 5.—Popullrts hero are claiming that great result** will fol low in tht* Western states from Senator Jones’ defection from the Republican party. They claim ihut Idaho will go for the Populists, but Senator Dubois denies this, and also asserts that nei ther himself nor any other Western senator will follow Mr. Jones* example. The other states which will elect sena tors this fall, and which, lt Is claimed, will be more or less affected by the ac tion of Senator Jones, are Colorado, Montaha und Wyoming. It Is within the rung? cf nn«*ihuitioH that nil of the states may have legislatures con- ttolled by the Populists, aud instead of vending back Republican senators will elect Populists. Colorado has al ready been carried by the Populists. The members of the houso of represent atives from Colorado belong to that party. Iu Wyoming, the legislature chosen two years ago failed to elect a su< < •*«- or to Senator Warren, because the Pop ulists held the balance of power nnd a combination could not bo formed be tween either ot the odier parties, none having a majority of the legtslature- The same U true of Montana, where u successor to Senator Ganders could not be chosen. It la asserted by Re publican senators that when congress reassembles a motion will be made in the Republican caucus to remove Sen ator Juno* from the finance committee, and to replace him by. a Republican free silver advocate.

Various legal points Were raised, but Judge Wood declined to ll.Mten to them. He S3id: “The Usenet of all these caves is whether the defendaucs have vio lated an Injunction Issued by the Uni ted State* court. That is the Import ant pottr: in these oases.” The court decided that all of the ******** against the various defendants should be tried as one. and the case of the ftiptn Fe should go along with those of the government, und witnesses for on* be coruldered us iritncaes for bo tit.
