in Their Caucus.
: > v , IX C. , Doc. 5. The most remarkable -
markablo contest , in the opinion of old and
experienced congressmen , for the spenhor-
btilp of the house of representatives tnnt has
taken place for many years , has reached its
last day nnd the final struggle Is now on In
the democratic caucus.
The hall ol the house began to fill UP after
1 o'clock , though moro thun half the mem
bers present did not possess the voting privi
lege. 'J'ho several candidates had taken up
headquarters in the committee rooms across
the corridor from the hall. The Illinois
delegation held nn Informal meeting this
morning nnd once again decided to stand by
Springer.
Nearly all the delegations of stales with
candidates for the .sponkorshlp hold secret
caucuses ut the capltol shortly after noon to
prepare for the last final struggle. Only hi
the meeting of the Illinois delegation was
any ecncral interest manifested , ns hopes
were still entertained by all the ether
candidates that Springer's forces would goto
pieces on the tlrst ballot. The meeting of
the delegation , however , failed to give them
any great grounds for thishoue. It was sim
ply agreed that General Noivborry should
present Springer's name to the caucus and no
notion was taken binding the Illinois con
gressmen to Springer under the unit rule.
The failure of the Illinois friends of Mills
to openly desert Springer was due to the ac
tion of the Michigan delegation. Whiting of
Michigan waited upon Messrs. Formnn ,
Filhian and Wiko of the Illinois delegation
mid announced that the Michigan delegation
had decided to glvo its entire support
of seven votes to Springer upon the
first ballot , but that if any Illinois
men deserted to Mills upon the first ballot ,
the Michigan delegation would veto solidly for
Crisp and endeavor to effect his election. The
same announcement was inado todlaycs nnd
the ether Springer men of the Iowa delega
tion , who were understood to bo ready to go
to Mills upon the first ballot ,
The caucus was called to order at 2 p.m. by
Congressman Holman.
The first , trouble In the caucus came with n
question us to how .tho votini. should proceed
by secret or open ballot. The question was
referred to the committee on rules , consist
ing ot ono member named by each candidate.
The committee recommended un open ballot ,
which report was submitted to the caucus
nnd adopted.
The roll call allowed the presence of all the
democratic members except seven. As
.stated by Chairman Holman , li'JT representa
tives were present , a majority of whom
would be 111.
After the sixteenth ballot was InUen n
motion 10 lul.lonrn until in o'clock Monday
niornlni ; wus put and carried.
Holman of Indiana voted for Springer ,
and O'Nfllll of Massachusetts voted for his
rollni''tie , Stevens , on thu llrst ballot.
There was n brcuK in the Illinois delega
tion on tha tlrst ballot , Flthian , Format ! and
Lane votinir for Mills.
Iowa's delegation ulso voted solidly for
Mills Instead of Springer.
The llrst break iu Hatch's column was on
the second ballot , and was by Peel of Ar-
Uansns , who transferred his vote to Crisp ,

There was a small attendance , hut It was nn

When a quorum was present the caucus
was called to order by Mr. Henderson of
Illinois , Mr. Dalzoll of Pennsylvania acting
ns secretary.
Nominations for the suenkrrshlp were im
mediately in .order , and Mr. Burrows of
Michigan , tn presenting the name of Mr.
Koed , snld In substance : "Although the re
publican majority of the house of represontu-
lives wni reversed by thu election of 1MH > , It
Is gratifying to know that the republican-
party of the country shows no signs
of reuniting from tlio advanced po
sition which It took und maintained
during the last congress , and I
\cntiiro to predict that the ilmo K near at
hand when the work of the Fifty-first congress -
gross will meet the endorsement and the ap
proval of , the American people. That con
gress reused tbo turllT In the interest uf pto-
tcctlon to American industries and labor , It
increased the currency by the full volume ot
our silver without the coinage of the depre
ciated dollar. It gave full measure to tbo
survivors of the war for the union ot the
country. It prosecuted the work of rehabili
tating the nnvy and strengthened the coast
defenses. It entered upon the work of
building up the merchant marine. It passed
a measure which , hud It been enacted Into a
luW , would have given every voter of the re
public the opportunity of casting his ballot
and having that ballot honestly counted. I
ha/uru nothing in saying that the legislation
of the Fifty-tint congress has been excelled
by no concrest slnco tbo close of the war.
There was no instrument uioro potent in ac
complishing those great results than the
tpcaucr of the bouio. Brushing away sense-
loss precedents of n hundred years by which
n factious minority resisted , and some
time ) controlled , the legislation ot
congress , with matchless ability and
courage ho paved the way for the
republican party to achieve the croatou
triumphs In Us history. In recognition of
his great personal services and of his fidelity
to tbo republican party , I place In nomina
tion the name of Thomas B. Hoed for the
spcnkcrsbip of the Fifty-second tongro . "
The nomination was agreed to by acclama
tion nnd Mr. Kcod made n brief speech In
recognition of the honor. The republican
party , ho said , was suffering from a tem
porary sot back only for this congress nnd
would resume Its placa In the affections of
the people.
The minor officers who served during the
litft congress was rmiomlnatod without op
position and the caucus adjourned.

Cint'Ano. 111. , Dec. 5. Itev. John Barrows ,
chairman of the general committee on re
ligious congresses nt the World's fair , has
mndo his first report ot progress to President
Bonnoy ot the World's congress auxiliary.
The report shows the most remarkable Inter
est In thu proposed gatherings among leaders
of religious thought nil ever the world , and
proinUiH n series of religious conferences
during IV.H ) that will excel in magnitude nnd
interest any similar meeting * ever held.
In hisreport Dr. Barrows calls ospcclnl
attention to the commendation from all quar
ters , brought out by the proposal to hold n
great ecumenical conference , nt which rep
resentatives ot ( il ! faiths and nationalities will
bo represented. On this Dr. Barrows says
in part :
"I take especial pleasure in sending you
the following report of our plans from the
pen of his eminence , Cardinal Gibbons ,
under date of November 2.'i : 'Judged by the
tenor of tbo preliminary address Is the
general cc/nmltteo of religious congresses
in connection with the exposition of
IM ) . ' ) , 1 deem this movement you are
cngag/d in promoting worthy of nil encour
agement nnd prnlso. Assuredly n congress
of eminent men , gathered together to declare ,
as your address sets forth , what they have to
offer or suggest for the world's betterment ,
what light religion has to throw on the labor
problems , the educational questions and the
peculiar social conditions of our time , cannot
but result In good to our common country.
I rcjolco accordingly to learn that the pro
ject fcr n religious congress nt Chicago In 18IM
has already won the sympathies nnd gnllstcd
the active co-operation' these in tno front
ranlt of human thought nna progress , oven In
other hinds than ours. If conducted with
moderation and coed will sucti n congress
may result , by the blessing of Divine provi
dence , In benollts moro far reaching than the
the most sanguine should euro to hope for.
"Similar expressions of approval and
promises of co-operation have been received
from President Patton of Princeton college ;
Joseph Cook , tholocturor ; Prof. Conrad von
O'Kelllof Basic , Switzerland , the famous
theological writer ; President Harper of the
Chicago univoraltv ; Hov. Lyrnan Abbott ,
Bishop W nipple of Minnesota , Dr. Oliver
Wendell Holmes , Frances Willard and n host
of others equally well known iu religious and
philanthropic work.
"Hon. W. E. Gladstone wrote on receipt of
the preliminary invitation to the con-
press : 'I look moro to improved
views and conceptions of individuals
than to the adoption of formulated
plans for the promotion of religious unity.
Nevertheless , I cannot read without Interest
your communication. Narrow comproncn-
sion frequently operates ns conclusion , nnd
in your plan 1 cordially admire the feature of
a wide and genuine comprehensiveness. The
subject is too deep to trifle with , too largo to
enter on , hut , looking at it as n whole , 1
cordially wish well to your Christian and
philanthropic eflorts. ' "
Iu closing the chairman says : "Your
committee realizes that an Important nnd
dinicult work has been assigned it , hut 1 am
sure that you may count on our united and
enenretlc labor to tiring together devout
scholars from many lands , who have at heart
the unity , peace and happiness of the world. "

KANSAS CITV , Mo , , Doc. o. There is rea

of this city , Is the man who throw the bomb
at Millionaire Hussol Sage , in Now York
yesterday. Men who knew Wilson when ho

the would-ba assassin is his.
For year * Hugh D. Wilson was a partner
of Charles Brewstor in the real estate busi

successful here , removed with his family to
Now York. Persons hero , who aver that
they have lately heard from him , say that
ho has for the past few months been In
straightened circumstances and In need of
Mipport for his family.
Nobody here can assign n reason for the

to have had may have unsettled his mind.

Special to Tin : 13ii.l : Now aids to those
concerned about the mind and soul of the
kaiser arc supplied daily , and several have
been furnished them this week. For lu-
stance : One , and not the least curious , is a
volume of sermons which has just boon pub
lished by William. It is entitled : "Olo
Stimino des Hcrrn , auf den \Vassorn" ( "Tho
Voice of the Lord on the Waters" ) , and
gives us an insight into the more mystic
points in William's character.
The sermons In themselves have no signifi
cance. They roiouiblo tuo homilies ono
hears In countless Gorman villages. As
those who may have ehuncud to spend some
of their Sundays in Vatorland are aware , it
Is usual there to preach two sermons on the
Sabbath. The ministers uro apt to repeat
their favorite phrases. The kaiser does the
same. IIo ha * taken as a text : "Let us ad
mire nature , the book of Uod. " His mind
does not positively soar in the sermons. In
ono place ho says : "How hard It scorns that
no mutter how exalted wo may bo , wo can do
nothing.1'
The rest Is given up to quaint conceits and
fnr-fotched imagery. "Heaven is a battle-
moutcd fortress " "Tho "
, apostles arc giants"
and "Tho clouds are the royal chariots of
Oed , " uro among thcso llgures. The whole
volume boars vivid testimony to the kaisers
mvsticism.
The military aspects of the German ruler
are on the other hand reflected In his address
to guards which has reached us by telegraph.
No monarch overused more ill advised or
brutal words. One phrase nbovo all "If I
command you to fire on your fathers and
mothers , you will obey" would bo monstrous
from the lips of a private person and will
give fresh weapons to { ho socialists in their
struggle with the monarchy.
I3.VUHSCS for the Kni.sor.
The persistency with which William
sponks of the danger of plvll war , although
only two days ego Chancellor von Caprivl
declared that no such .fifingor existed , has
made such a deplorable ? impression that the
Gorman ofllcers Uc Ursvfefnsed to believe
the Imperial speech \vns authentic. They
have , however , had to tow to facts.
The speech is genuine , and now in extenua
tion of their sovereign's words they are
driven to assuming that ) If the public know
as much as the kaiser dpos , it would attach
more meaning to bis utterances.
The Post draws a parjillol between the Im
perial speech and n rqmnrk of the socialist
deputy , tleine , In the rolchstag , in favor of
the red Hag. But there , IB n wide difference
betwccn4t and the kaisers. However much
the Germans may strive to explain away
their ruler's monstrous words , they throw
distressing light upon hjs soldier methods.
\\hatlhenaro wo to thiulc of this young
emporori
The answer Is perhaps not hard to find.
If wo refer to a work by the eminent pro
fessor , Ca-saro I'Ambroioof Turin , entitled ,
"A Man of Genius , " in which the author
speaks of the bralnsicknessand the character
of a person strikingly Iiko William ( In the
book ho is called Mattoldo , which
signifies a man not quite but nearly
mad" ) . Wo may see a mental
analysis made eicht years ace before people
had begun to worry about the present kaiser :
"Mattoldo has the BOID bianco of a man of
genius without the substance. "
Continuing , L'Ambrivso says : "Mattoldo
Is endowed with physical energy. Ho Is
untiring. Ho carries his craving for chaniro
of scene to the point of vagabondage. Ho
loves gorgeous costumes and utrihlncr pos
tures. lie has a peculiar fondness for as
suming disguises. He talks mucht Ho Is
eloquent and llcrce , but his speeches are
hollow. "
All the symptoms here described might bo
found Iu the kaiser's case. And il they are
correct the prognosis of I'Ambroso may
also bo correct. The Italian remarks : "After
a more or less prolonged period of theoretic
agitation Mattoldo Invariably reaches n
really agitated phase , in which , with his
bursts of wild and Impulsive rage , ha becomes -
comes dangerous.
The prognosis is nlarning cnouch , foi' in
the case of the Mattoldo of whom Prof.
I'Ambroso speaks , at those violent moments
the patient's familv can intervene. Hut who
would dare to modulo with an emperor ? Wo
may bo pardoned for trembling for the peace
of Kuropo when wo rolled upon what issues
it may hingo. Ono thing , at all events , Is
settled now. William 11 Is not a man ot
genius. He Is a man diseased ono who may
grow dancerous.

Paris owes something to the ucad emperor
whom wo knew mid liked sp honestly. It
was no secret to u * that for'somu years past
Dom Pedro had not been qujto hlmselt , but
wo should have been ashiuucd and pained to
hint at such a thing , for wo could not forget
that after the misfortunes of IbTI ho was the
llrst sovereign to visit us. In this land of
liberty wa could not. refuse our rchpoclful
sympathy to the liberal monarch who had
abolished slavery and given hu um
pire freedom. Literary Franco loved
the mail who gave so much of his lime to
our academics and museums , who was so
happy In the company of our savants , and
who once said : "If I xvero not nn emuoror ,
I should like to bo a school master. "
The politics ot Brazil did not concern us.

thirty feet Into the bayou.
It was reported at first that several persons
had been killed. It was learned , however ,
upon the arrival of a special train from the

CHICAGO , III. , Dec. fi. Active wopariUlons
nro tn progress hero today for the interment
tomorrow of ono of America's most notable
characters , Colonel Edmond DU-k Taylor ,
the man to whom Prosi.lent Lincoln gave
the credit of oriulnnting the greenback cur
rency Idea. Colonel T.iylor's death has
brought to light many Important facts here
tofore unpubliihod or little known. He It
wus who luduccd Lincoln .to leave the coun
try store at riulem and go to Springfield and
study law. The story of his relations with
Lincoln Is a remarkable ono.
Colonel Taylor was born at Falrllold Court
House , Yu. , October IS , isivj. Ho was a
cousin of President X'icli Tavlor and his
father was a captain in the "revolutionary
war , Alan early age ho left his home and
went to Springfield , III. , where ho opened a
general store and Indian trading post.
While engaged In this business ho became
acquainted with Lincoln , who was tl.on n
clerk at Salem , 111. , mid with Stephen A.
Douglass , who was teaching a country
school. Ho was much Impressed with their
ability nnd told them they should study law.
Lincoln replied that ho had no money with
which to buy books. "Come to Sprlngllold ,
I will see that yon are supplied , " was the
colonel's reply. Lincoln came and for a long
time made his homo with Colonel and .Mrs.
Taylor.
Through Colonel Tnvlor's Influence Lin
coln was taken into .Indue Logan's oflleo ,
whore ho made himself useful keeping up
fires , sweeping out the olllco und doing
clerical work for the privilege of
using the judiro's law library. About this
time Lincoln bought several yards of Jeans
for a pair of trousers. Ho had not enouph
money to get thorn made and Mrs. Tavlor
volunteered to make them for him. In after
years , when ho became president , ho told
Mrs. Taylor that he had never had n pair of
trousers that gave him as iniicti satisfaction
and ns good wearns the pair she made him
when ho was a law student unknown to the
world.
Colonel Taylor- rapidly prospered In busi
ness , and was connected with many banning
institutions in his day.
During the civil war , at a time when the
government's credit with Europe was ex
hausted and the soldiers were crying for
money and the treasury was empty , Lincoln
sent for Colonel Taylor. When the scheme
evolved by them became a pronounced suc
cess Lincoln wrote Colonel Taylor the follow
ing letter :
My Dear Colonel Dick : I have long deter
mined to make public the origin of the rreen-
baeii and tell the nurlil that il Is ono of Dick
1 nylor's creations. Von hail always been
friendly to me , and when troublous Unit's fell
upon ns ami my shoulders though broad and
willing , were weal : , anil myself MII rounded by
such circumstances nnd such people tli..t I
knew not whom lo trust , then said I In my ex
tremity :
"I will send for Colonel Taylor ; he will
know what to do. "
1 think it was In January , Hi' . ' , on nr about
thu Kith , that I did so. Yimcunieaud 1 .said tu
you : "What eiin wo iluV"
Said you , "Why. Issue treasury notes hear
ing no fnteie.st , printed en the best hanking
paper. Issue enough to pay ulT the army ex
penses and decline It u lojtal tender. "
Chase thought It a liii/.ardous thing , but we
finally nccoiiip'.lshed il. and gave totho people
of tills lepnblle the KioatcM blessing they
over hurt their own paper to pay lliulr own
debts. It Is due lo.you , the fatherof the pres
ent greenback , that , the people should know
It. and I take great plnjsuru , hi making It
known. Huw many times have I laughed Ut
you telling inn plainly thut I w.'is lee lazy lo
bo anything but n'luirydr. Yours truly.
Taylor was n warm friend of General
Grant as well as ot Lincoln , nnd carried
many dispatches between them.
The funeral takes place tomorrow after
noon from the residence of Colonel Taylor's
son-in-law. The remains will bo buried at
Uoso Hill.

The bill gives notice of various defenses

The suit has created crcat excitement in

HKUI.IN , Dec. 5. Tlio relchstag has been
discussing the government bill providing that
the Immunities enjoyed by the members oC
that body from arrest or Imprisonment shall
bo suspended when an adjourninont of the
rolchstag exceeds thirty days. Dr. von
Boottsehcr , secretary of the Imperial ofllco
and roprcsontativo of the chancellor , nskoil
the house to adopt or reject the bill at once ,
adding that if It was rejected the govern
ment would bo precluded from protecting
the members of the rolohstng from proceed
ings taken against thorn in the law courts.
The frco conservatives and centrists sup
ported a motion to ruler the bill to a commit
tee. Notwithstanding the opposition of the
government the bill was referred to a com
mittee of fourteen.
Cicr-niiiiiy's Commercial Treaties.
Tuesday next Chancellor von Caprivl will
introduce into the roichatng the treaties of
commerce recently negotiated with Austria
and Switzerland.
The cnaiiccllor gave his llrst parliamentary
dinner on Thursday last. The treaties were
the subject of conversation. The chancellor ,
however , refused to give any Information re
garding their terms. Ho privately stated
that urgency would bo demanded by the gov
ernment for the debate to decide the tariff
proposals. IIo declared that ho would op
pose sending the treaties to a committee. A
majority of the members , however , arc de
termined to send the trunllo * to a com
mittee , if for no other reason than
to hear Chancellor von Cnprivi glvo
reasons for a commercial policy which ho
could not reveal In the open sittings of the
houso. Although the full details of the
treaties have not been made public , it is
known that they determine the tariffs lor the
next few years. They modify Prince BIs-
marck's protective .system , which has been In
existence slnco 1ST ! ' . They llx the maximum
tariffs , but leave the government olostio
powers in regard to the minimum duties.
The slleneo of the Kelohszanzolgor , the
government organ , In regard to the emperor's '
supposed speech to the lucrulU ut Potsdam ,
In which ho Is alleged to have .said that the
soldiers belonged to him body and soul , m
taken to confirm the truth ot the report.
The somi-olHcml pnpora at llrst vaguely
asserted that the words of the emperor had
been distorted. Now the ultra conservative
papers defend the Imperial language , ns ex
pressing the extent of the allegiance the
soldiers owe the emperor thro.igh . their oaths.
I''cir William's DcHpntlo 'ton Icnolcs.
Apart from the ultra conservatives general
anxiety Is expressed because of the dospotlo
tendency shown by the onmoror In his recent
utterances.
The liberal organs demand that a public
denial bo made ol the words attributed to his
majesty.
Prof. Dolbruck , who fora long time was n
tutor in the family of the late Emperor
Frederick , has written that the words the
eniperor Inscribed in the Munich register ,
ami the general tone of the address made
on that occasion constitute a dtingor that
cannot bo overlooked. livery class of tha
community and all parlies in the stnto am
anxiously excited over his majesty's utter
ances. The public , the professor Buys , mu.tt
feel as though they had rooalvod soine-thlng
In the nature of nn insult.
The emperor joined Prlnco Henry ol
Prussia today In a hunting expedition on his
estate at Gohordo , near Lunoburg.
The Evangelical synod had a protracted
and excited debate on the emperor's rescript
in regard to Immorality. The synod iinani
mously protested against licensing women ol
the town or houses of ill-repute.
The Berlin medical council discussed the
immorality rescript in n dill'erent spirit from
that displayed hy the synod. A majority of
the doctors advocated the licensing of' the
women and the regulation of the houses.
Kimilly the council formed a commission of
Inquiry Into prostitution , and the burgo
master and chief of pollco wuru invited lo
ass st In the investigation.
Coon , the Boston world trotter , who was
arrested hero for not pa.ving his hotel bill ,
has boon Interviewed In jail. Ho stated that
ho informed Hotel Keeper PfulT beforehand
that he would not and could not pay him.
Ho maintains his Intention to "beat" his '
