The cabinet crisis continues to absorb the
attention of the clubs , etc. , and the best
Informed speculations regarding the cabinet
ngreo In the belief that Lord Salisbury will
accept the task cf forming a cabinet and anew
now ministry , to be composed of representa
tives of both sections of the unionist party ,
although a dissolution of Parliament cannot
long lie delayed. It may not bo necessary
to fill all the places In the ministry as the
Tlinea Intimates this morning before taking
steps for an Immediate appeal to the coun
try. Then , according to program , the mar
quis of Salisbury would become premier and
president-of the council of ministers and the
duke of Devonshire would become secretary
of stale for foreign nftalrs
ATTER THU PREMIER.
Mr. Balfour Is said to be slated for the
ofllco of first lord of the treasury and Mr
Chamberlain become secretary of state
for war. lit. Hon. George Goschen , for
merly chancellor of the exchequer , Is said to
be slated fof the post of first lord of the ad

inet positions.
The principal members of the Salisbury
cabinet must bo re-elected Immediately and
the dissolution of Parliament Is expected

The marquls of Londonderry , conservative
Is expected to be the next viceroy of Ireland
In the HOUM of Commons today there was
a most animated scene and outside the
houses of Parliament large crowds of people
gathered.
The speaker , Mr William Curt Gully , took
the chair at 3 o'clock , and soon afterward
the secretary of state for war , Mr. II. Camp
bell Dannerman entered the House amid pro
longed liberal cheers. Mr. Balfour followed
and was greeted with vigorous chosrs from
his supporters.
At 3 30 the chancellor of the exchequer. Sir
William Vt. non Harcourt , entered the House
nnd the liberals arose In a body and cheered
him to the echo.
The supporters of Mr Chamberlain made a
similar demonstration when the unionist
leader entered the House of Commons.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt said "It
Is my duty to make the announcement to the
House that the division of Friday last was a
vote of censure of the eccrotiry of war , than
whom never a more able , respected or popular
minister held office. The government , of
course , associated themselves with their col
league , nnd feeling that they were unable
to pass the votes for supply , the government
resigned and their resignation was accepted
"Under ordinary circumstances it would
have been Incumbent to move an adjourn
ment ; but the seal fisheries bill must be
liassed before July , and when It has passed Its
third reading the government will move the
adjournment of the House. "
The clnncellor of the exchequer then
i\ \ > * } > ) his supporters and acknowledged the
cOh fueratton shown to the government by Its
opponents. Tears were I" the eyes of Sir
William when he uttered the list words.
BALKOUR OFTERS CRITICISM.
Mr. Daltour crltlclbed the conduct of the
government. He said he thought the con
Btltutlonal manner of proceeding would have
been to advise the queen to dlswlve Parlh-
jnent Instead of throwing the burden of con
tinuing the government on the opposition
At 3'22 the House went Into committee on
the seals fisheries bill
Most of the members left when the House
went Into committee. Numerous questions
were asl.ed In regard to the agreement with '
Ru la on the Bering fe& question and the
complaints received by the government from
the Dominion of Canada on the same subject.
The parliamentary secretary of the foreign
nlllce , Sir EJward Grey , In reply said that
batlsfactory assurances had been given to
Canada on the points ralicJ In behalf of the
Dominion.
The seal fisheries bill then passed to third
reading.
Dr. Charles I. D. Tanner , member for the
mlJdlo division of Cork , antl-Parnelllte
raised a disturbance by exclaiming that ho
did not see why the seal fisheries bill should
bo given precedence over the Irish land bill
The house then adjourned
Jt was rumored shortly after the Hou e of
Commons adjourned tint Sir William Vernon
Harcourt will not present himself as a can
didate for re-election and the concluding
words , of his thanks to the House of Com
mons were In reality a valedictory.
There wore great crowds present In the
Hoitbo of Commons when the premier , Lord
Ilosebcry , rose at 3.40 p m. to announce the
resignation of the cabinet.
The prlnco of Wales , the duke of York anil
the duke of Cambridge sat on the court
benches. The marquis of Salisbury was ab
sent at Wlnlsor , where he had gone In answei
to the command of the ( [ neon.
The galleries were crowded with peeresse8
and a number of members of the House ol
Commons were present In order to hear the
statement of the retiring premier.
Lord Rwcbery , amid deep silence , said
"I desire to make a very brief statement
which the house has undoubtedly anticipated.
After the vote of the House of Commons or
Friday , which was practically a vota of ccn
sura on the secretary of war on a question
of national defense. Immediately after there
had been laid bcfoto the liouso a gru.il
scheme for inllltiiy organization , the gov
ernment felt It their duty to place tholi
resignations lu the handa of the queen. Theli
resignations were accepted and the govern'
mont will hold office until their successor !
are appointed. "
The earl of Cranbroolc. conservative , i aU
that the marquis of Salisbury had deslrci

that theiB was only one very Important bill

LV LOUISVILLE. June 24 Hon. Jame * 11
McCreary , chairman of the houia committc
on foreign affairs , l In this city to attend th
democratic state convert Ion , and Is ruauli.
lgaln t Senator Blackburn for chilrnun of th
loumUteo on resolution * . Mr. McCreary wi
a member of the International monetary con
ference , which met at Brussels In 1892.
When seen today by a representative of the
Associated press , Mr. McCreary stated that
his experience with the English members of
that conference gives him assurance that the
advent of the Salisbury ministry will be In
the Interest of bimetallism , as Lord Salisbury ,
Ilalfour and other are more favorable than
Rosebery and his associates were for such a
conference. Mr. McCreary said ho was
more hopeful now than ever before for such
International action as would settle the ratio
between the metals. He not only regards
Lord Salisbury as friendly to an Interna
tional monetary agreement , but also as a
very great statesman , who will be more-
lib ral In his general policy than Rosebery.
There were active friends In England of bi
metallism , and Lord Salisbury would recog-
nlzs them. Mr. McCreary referred to Sir
William Houlds\vorth. Balfour , Chapln and
others who were friendly to bimetallism and
who vvcra clo e to Salisbury While England
hid maintained a gold standard since 1S1C ,
Mr McCreary had no doubt that bimetallism
had many friends among the manufacturers ,
agriculturists and business men In England ,
and that this sentiment was growing , so
that the ministry would be sustained In sup
porting an International agreement
PROBLEM MIGHT I1E SOLVED
Mr. McCreary thought such an agreement
might be se-curcd without the participation of
England , but when an International monetary
conference assembled In Europe It would be
very encouraging to have the support of the
leading etntcsmen In the English ministry.
The House of Commons has already adopteJ
a resolution that Is regarded as favorable for
an International conference Germany ,
Trance anil the United Sta s have taken
action for such a conference , and If England
will co-operate the metallic problem can bo
solved
Mr. McCreary regarded Salisbury as better
equipped In every way than Rosebery for a
more liberal and more enlightened policy ,
which would cxtenJ to Nicaragua , Venezuela
nnd other American countries In which the
United States Is Interested He thought
England was paying very little attention to
Hawaii , and that the Unl e3 States was payIng -
Ing entirely too much attention to these lltt o
Islands Mr. McCreary said ho was not only
cposed > to the annexation of Hawaii , but
also to any subsidy for n cable from San
Francisco to Honolulu There were fourteen
submarine telegraphic lines In operation , an !
all had been built by private capital. If any
more enterprises were needed the capital
could be found for them ,

desist. Ever since he has been threatening
her life Yesterday afternoon the sisters , now
young ladles of 19 and 17 , started from their

HOT FIGHT IN KENTUCKY
Democratic Party Badly Out Up Over the
Question of Finance.
HARDIN LEADS FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP
Iloth ( lold anil Silver Men Claim to llnve a
Majority of the Iclrci to to tlio
btnto Convention \\lilch
Atsciulile Tomorrow.
LOUISVILLE , Juno 24 The democratic
state convention hero tomorrow will be among
the hottest contests In the history of the
commonwealth. Many delegates were hero
over Sunday. All are hero today for the pre
liminary skirmish In the district meeting- * .
Tbo polling of all the Louisville papers shows
the gold delegates to bo In a majority. The
silver men dispute their estimate and charge
that the Lsulsvllle pipers claim most of the
unlnstructed delegates when those'delegates
arc equally divided. The lines are drawn on
the endorsement of the administration , with
Carlisle's friends leading for the administra
tion and Blackburn's friends against Its finan
cial policy.
General Casslus M. Clay Is the admlnlstra-
lon candidate for governor and General P.
, V. Hardln Is the antl administration ciniil-
ate. The silver men will try to force noml-
atlons before the adoption ot a platform
'ho gold men are bitterly opposed to this
rder of business , as they claim that Hardln
s stronger than the free sllverltcs. Hardln
s a pronounced free sllvet rolnas < ? man , as
much so as senator Blackburn , and If noml-
nited wants a free silver plank.
The first test of strength will come tomor-
ow on selection of a temporary chairman ,
ho has the appointment of two members at
arge on all the committees. There are eleven
tongreeslonal districts. It Is estimated that
he gold men will have six and the silver men
! lve on the committee on resolutions from the
Istrlcts , but If tha silver men ioci.ro ths tern
porary organization the platform makers will
stand 7 to C. This Is the fight that Is being
: nado today.
POLL ON THE GOVERNORSHIP.
The Post , which strongly supports the ad
ministration's financial policy , today lias a
nil poll of the delegates , showing 435 for
lardln , 378 for Clay and 05 doubtful. The
est says. "Thero arc 878 delegates , 440
necessary to a choice and the poll Indicates
.hat Hardln lacks only five votes. The
.lardln men say that they have the five \ote .
This Is not by any meana certain. General
Gordo Williams was defeated sixteen years
ago by James B McCreary when within five
otes of the nomination. "
Governor Buckner publishes a card today
laying that he will not accept the nomlna-
_ lon for governor and Insists that the sound
money democrats must select some other
man If they cannot nominate Gcne-al Clay.
General Uuckner eays he Is a candidate for
senator on a ound money platform and will
have nothing else
The all absorbing topic Is the reso-
ititlon on the sliver question. The com-
ulttea on resolutions will consist of ono
member from euch of the eleven congres
sional districts and two members at larg.
appointed by the chairman cf the convention.
Tor this reason there Is more content than
ever for the temporary organization.
Carlisle's private secretary and appoint
ment clerk are here , and they were followed
by ex-Congressman Phil B Thompson , who Is
enthusiastic for Senator Blackburn for chair-
nan of the committee on resolution' . Aside
from ttie silver Issue , thcro Is a bitter fighl
between the friends of Secretary Carlisle ant
Senator Blackburn , In which Senator Llnd-
siy , ex-Governor Buckner , McCreary ami
other lenders are with Carlisle , while Gov-
rnor Brown , ex-Governor Proctor Knott ane
others-ire with Blackburn.
There Is an almost endless list of candi
dates for minor state offices and they have
had their headquarter * open several days , as
early birds. In the early sklrmUhlng the
gold men claimed to have a majority of the
delegates , but tlio arrival of Senator Black
burn has Inspired the silver men so that
they are equally confident
There arc so many unlnstructcd delegates
that It will be Impossible to estimate the
strength of the gold and silver men before
the temporary organization Is made , nnd
then It will be seen whether the resolutions
are to be for free coinage or against It. The
temporary organisation will also Indicate
whether either Clay or Hardln controls the
convention. The memb rs of the committees
will bo selected at the delegation meeting
Tuesday , 10 a. m. , and reported to the con
vention at 2 p m. All the delegates are ex
pected by this evening , when each one will
bo seen as to his preferences for members of
the committees , as well as for candidates
There U no doubt about the contest being
very vigorous It Is already warm
CANDIDATES FOR CHAIRMAN.
Tonight the "sound money" delegates an
nounce ex-Congressman W J. Stone as their
candidate for temporary chairman. Judge
Beckner Is Blackburn's man. At the Win
chester convention last week he opposed the
endorsement of Cleveland and Carlisle. They
will make a test on the vote between liecK-
ner and Stone , the latter being popular
with some sllverites nnd Hardln men Mein-
vvhlle the conservatives want both Beckner
nnd Stone to promise to appoint one silver
man and one gold man as members-at-large
of the committee on resolutions , and In fact
to divide equally the membcrs-at-large of
all the committees. Senator Blackburn , who
has more at stake at this convention than
any of the state candidates , and more even
than Secretary Carlisle , wns disposed to
concede to the conservative plan of an equal
division of the members-at-large on each
of the committees , but the radical silver
men opposed It , and a meeting of the tllvor
men was accordingly called for H o'clock
tonight. The silver men may bo In confer
ence all night preparatory to the fight , which
begins lu the congressional district n.eUlngi
In the morning.
Tonight the contest between the adminis
tration delegates has been more bltur than
ever The fight Is for the temporary or
ganization with a view to seeming the chair
man , two members-at-large of the committee
on resolutions and controlling the lules Lnd
order ot business , so that nominations shall
be made before the platform Is nloptsd. As
General Hardln claims enough votes to
nominate him , the "honest money" delegates
want the platform adopted first.
General Hardln Is reported to have said
he would Insist on a free silver platform ,
and when seen he declined to deny It Hit
friends claim that he could not run on a
Carlisle or administration platform after the
canvass ho has made with Blackburn and
others on the free coinage Issue. There Is a
conservative element wanting the convention
to affirm the national platform of 1S92 and gene
no further on the financial question , but the
sllverites cay that would Imply au endorse
ment of the administration.
Senator Blackburn favored the reaffirming
of the platform of 1S92 , with an additional
affirmation that the pledges of 1S92 have
nit been fulfilled by President Cleveland and
Secretary Carlisle The conservatives argue
that If General Hardln Is nominated , and EO
controls the convention as to prevent the re
affirming of the national declarations- 1S92 ,
that the state ticket and platform would bo
outside the party and that there might be
tome justification In the threatened bolt of
the ultra gold men
The state committee does not name the
temporary chairman of this convention in
advance. Mr. Carroll of the state committee
holds the gavel until the convention elects
Its temporary chairman , and the first thing
In order ! the selection of temporary offi
cers , cm which at this time depends the fate
of senatorial , gubernatorial and other candi
dates and the metallic complexion of the plat
form.

In Cuban circles the report that Uurmedcse

WASHINGTON , June 24. Minister Dupuy
do Lome of Spain says that the report of the
killing of Captain Campos , said to be the eon
of General Campos , Is without foundation , as
Is also the report coming via Tampa that a
sanguinary battle was fought on the 12th , In
which many were killed.
"I nm surprised , " said he , "at the system

misinformation Is font out from the centers

on which the facts , If known. would permit
the public to form their judgment. But
these centers keep furnishing reports of
bloody battles , the killing of generals , al
though no such battles or disunities occur
The reports show on their face that they
have be3n manufactured. These evnters send
reports which Ignore the geography of Cuba
A leader Is given at one point today and the
next day he Is given as lea ling a charge at
another point several hundred miles AMay.
The Cuban agitators are also In the habit of
giving the same regiment from scve al differ
ent points. Tampa will first tell the story
of a fictitious battle The nejtt day Gaines
ville furnished another report of the same
battle. Then It comes from Jacksonville , and
a little later from Nassau ) so that the
fighting Is made to serve for , several weeks
This Is being done systematically by the
persons Interested In giving n fictitious Im

WASHINGTON , June 24. Consul Baker , at

sugar crop. Ho says :
The sugar of 1894-E having been marketed ,
eaves no doubt of a material decrease from
the yield of previous years. This , together
with the very low price realized by the
rihnters , for the advance came too late to
jcnefit the producer , leaves the sugar grow
ers of Cuba In a most Helpless condition
They now frankly aJmlt that hey will not be
able to secure loans with which to make
the coming crop , which means that not ex
ceeding one-half the usual acreage of new
cano has been planted , and a corresponding
neglect In the cleaning of the present crop
In truth , the condition of the planters of this
island is distressing , and the end Is not yet ,
for when It Is recalled that fully one-third
of the Inhabitants depend upon the planta
tion" for employment and a living , and that
the owners thereof cannot obtain money
enough to engage the labor , actual suffering
must ensue.

NEW YORK- ; June 24. The surgeons nt
the naval hospital In Brooklyn arc puzzled
by a peculhr malady prevalent nmoug the
sailors who arrived on the Chicago during
icr last cruise , There arc at the present
me , according to the statement ot Surgeon
i Chief D T. Edwards Dogart , about twenty
' the Chicago's crew laid up In the naval
ospltal nnd hnlf a dozen or more are nt the
'orfolk hospital , where they were taken
out the Amphitrltc , to which many ot the
rew were transferred when the vessel went
it of commission. Although some ot the
en In Brooklyn have been under treatment
r six or seven weeks their condition has
en but little changed The same high
cmperature nnd rheumatic pains In the
olnts , which characterized the disease when
1st contracted , are still experienced by the
Ictlms nnd little progress seems to have
ecu made In successfully contending with
' e Illness.
Dr Ilcgart said the dl casc from which
10 sailors are suffering U well known In
te countries bonier Ing on the Mediterranean
n , and that there Is no mystery about It.
e admitted , however , that they had not as
et made a satisfactory diagnosis of the dls-
aso and the patients did not ECCIII to 1m-
rove perceptibly.
The sailors take a different view of the
ise They sny the doctors nre puzzled , and
uit they have no name for the malady nor
ny satisfactory treatment. The certificates
hlch are sent with eich patient to the
ospltnl nre siip/losed / to fctnte the name of

ic case of the Chicago's men the disease Is
ut down under various names The certlll-
ites of some named It typhoid fever , but
10 treatment In these cases was not that
hlch Is used In typhoid fever cases. One
F the most dnngeioiis features ot the
Chicago fever , " as It Is termed at the mvy
ospltnl , Is nn excessively high temperature ,
ne sailor said that his temperature had
un up to 104 degrees nnd thit the tempera-
ire of the man on the adjoining cot had
cached 100. The sunstroke treatment Is
scd In lowering the temperature.

Okluhomii County ,
WASHINGTON , ' June 24 Additional re-
arts received at the Indian bureau on the
rouble growing out of the shooting of Cosah
led Lodge at Arapahoe , Ok ! . , Implicates
Little Man , son-in-law of Soft Belly , of the
hejenne nnd Arapahoes as the party who rc-
ently outraged an octogenarian woman
here , which was the primary cause of the
rouble. There were six witnesses ready to
cstlfy for the prosecution , and the only ono
vho corresponds with the description given
Little Man. Ho was at Arapahoe when
he crime was committed and evidence , It Is
sserted , points strongly to his ijullt. The
ondltlon of Cosah Red Lodge , who was shot
iy the sheriff while under suspicion , Is 1m-
iroving.
A report from School Superintendent Zeget ,
vho was sent to Arapahoe , says The In-
lar.s are quiet , considering the Inhuman and
incalled for treatment from the sheriff. They
icllevo Red Lodge Is Innocent and Little
Ian guilty There Is a strong resemblance
letween the two.
Red Lodge's version of the shooting Is
ubslnntlally this He was In charge of the
herlff , who told him to get on the buggy
ilth him. He did so , but neither could undrr-
tand the other's language. Trom signs oi
he sheriff ho understood he wns being taken
iut to be thrown Into a well on the out-
klrts of the town , where he saw a crowd
gathered. He preferred to be shot and got
iut of the buggy , faced the sheriff and made
igns for him to shoot. Walking backward a
hart distance to see If he would not , be kept
ils face toward the sheriff to receive the
hot In his head , and when he turned am ,
an away slowly the sheriff began shooting ,
me shot grazing his thigh. Another man
vhom Red Lodpe thought was going to
hoot shot at him several t iies. The Indian
ran toward him , but the crowd came up ,
struck him with a knlfo and fists , kicked ,
cursed nnd abused him and left him uncon
scious on the prairie. The sentiment Is
itrong against the sheriff , who Is charged
vlth laying hlm < elf open to prosecution by
verstepplng his authority.
Captain McKay , commanding the troops at
Vrapaho0 , reports that on notice of the shooi
ng every available man was brought there
and a probible rupture of friendly relations
hereby avoided Indian officials here do
not anticipate further trouble.

RESTS WITH THE COUNCIL
Treasurer Bolln's Bondsmen Decide to Stand
by Him in His Trouble.
HIS RESIGNATION MUST BE FORCED

The city council will bo obliged to tackls
the question of what shall bo done with re
gard to the conduct of the city treasurer's
ofilce during the rcnnlnilcr of Mr. Uolln's
term. That was decided at a meeting of Mr.
Ilolln's bondsmen , which was heU In com
mittee room A In the city hall yesterday
afternoon. The meeting was called to con-
sUer the question of Mr Ilolln's resignation ,
and after a session of nearly two hours they
decided to take no action In the matter , butte
to leave the re'pouslblllty with the city
council.
Comptroller Olscn la expected to make a
report to the city council tonight , stating
what has been the result of the Investiga
tion Into the condition of the city treasury ,
begun last Tuesday. Mr. Olscn Is said to bo
Inclined to let the affair down ns easily a
possible , and rumor has It that he will refer
to Mr. Bolln's troubles In no more fcvcro
terms than as "Irregularities. "
The Irregularities on which ho Is to report
consist , however , In a shortage in the treas
urer's cash balance that aggregated over
130.000 on the day the bondsmen Instituted
their fruitful Inquiry. When the cah drawer
was opened on Tueuliy of last week It was
found to contain only about $1 SOO. The
cash book , however , showed that there should
have been about $ J3,000. In other words1 ,
there was a difference between the footings
In the cash bock and the money on hand of
some 121,000 In place of this $21,000 there
vvap , as has been stated , a thick bunch of
papers , memorandum tllps , checks nnd as
signments of warrants Of these $11,000
iHtcd back before Jamnry , 1894 , nnd Into the
first term of Mr. llollu as city treasurer.
HOOKS AND TACTS AT VARIANCE.
lint that was not all. The books showed
that there should have been $19,000 In the
Midland bank to the credit of the public
school fund , when , In fact , the deposit In
that bank was $9,000 less. Mr Bolln , It will
be remembered , asserted at one time that ho
had another certificate of deposit In the Mid
land , which made up for the deficit , but this
ceitlficatc was apparently a figment of the
Imagination. The money Is still missing.
Nor was that all. Uesldcs the due bills In
the cash drawer , amounting to $21,000 , and
[ the Midland bulk discrepancy of $ ' 1,000 , thcro
were uncollectublo checks of a number of
city contractor , which aggregated $3,400.
The strange part about these checks Is that
there Is no trace of them whatever on the
books In the treasurer's office. They were
found among the treasurer's papers , but no
record had bcon kept of them and the checkIng -
Ing of the books would have left every ono
In the dark as to their existence.
If these unrecorded checks nro to be added
to the other misappropriations the total will
be some $34,400. If they are duplicated by
some of the memorandum slips the ( otal will
bo $31,000. The actual loss to the bondsmen
will bo considerably less than this sum. They
have been converting ns many of the checks
and assignments of warrants into cash as
possible. They have Induced Mr. llolln to
deed over to Mr Paxton , In trust for them , all
of his property excepting his home , In this
way they hope to reduce the amount which
they will be called upon to make good to
something less than $1. > ,000
ACTION OF THE BONDSMEN.
A couple of dhys ago Mr. Dolln stated that
ho was willing to resign his office If he was
ailvNcd to do to by Ills bondsmen This re
sulted In the bondsmen being callel together
yesterday and the matter was discussed ! at
length Some of the bondsmen were very
willing that Mr. Bolln should resign and relieve
lievo them of all future responsibility , but
Mr Pnxton nnd others urged that they
should s and by him It wns flmlly pro
posed that the bondsmen .had no Jurisdiction
In the matter and It would not be p oper for
them to give any advlco whitever The
mayor and council had the exclusive right
to say whether or not Mr. Ilolln should con
tinue In oir.co , and the only recourse the
bondsmen had was to ask to be relived from
their obligation In catc the council did not
declare the office vacint and they were un
willing to remain on the bond.
This view prevailed ana the meeting ad-
jouined without taking any action W. A.
Pnxton , C J Karbach and W G Wattles , as
the committee previously appointed to In
vestigate Mr Ilolln's aftalra , reported that In
their opinion the shortage would provo to bo
much lets than had been expected Ti'c greater
part of the funds that had been taken from the
treasury for various city officials and private
Individuals had been returned by the bene
ficiaries and others had promised to make
goo. } their loans between July 1 and in.
When this was done the remaining shortage
would bo comparatively slight. The report
wa.i accepted and the further adjudication
of the matter was left to the same com
mittee.
BOLLN IS UNDECIDED.
After the meeting the members of the com
mittee held a confeience with Mr. Bolln , at
which the latter was acquci.ited with the
result of their deliberations After they had
left Mr Bolln stated that he understood that
the action taken by his bondsmen Indicated
that they were willing to stand by him. Ho
said that the effect of their decision was to-
leave the responsibility with the council , no-
was ready to resign If they had demanded
It , but now that they had Indicated their
readiness to stay by him It was another
question.
When asked directly whether or not he In
tended to resign anyway , Mr. Bolln said
that he did not know He could not answer-
Ujitll after he had consulted with his at
torney , but would make up Ms mind some
time today If he decided to resign his res--
Ignatlon would probably bo In the hands ot
the council before night.
A rumor that floated around the city hall
during the afternoon made things lively for
a few minutes. Some one declared that
Comptroller Olsen had tald that every coun
cilman except Howell was Included In the list
of those who had profited by Mr. Bolln's In
ability to refuse financial favors , Lemly
and Ilurkley were within hearing and they
Immediately donned their warpaint anel
started for the comptroller's domain , Mr.
Olsen denied that ho had made such a state
ment as wns attributed to him and tho.
storm pused without breaking
COUNCILMEN IN A PINCH.
The future fate of Mr. Bolln will be Informally -
formally discussed at a special mc'tlng of the/
council , which has been called by Mayor
Bcmls for 10 30 o'cloek this forenoon. At
that time the situation will bo gone over and.
the members will endeavor to ugreo on eomo
line of action to be carried out at the evenIng -
Ing session. It Is well known that several
members of the council are somewhat on tha
fence with regard to their course In the
matter They had hoped that Mr Dolln
would relieve them of their predicament by
rcilgnlng , but In the absence of n resigna
tion they will have to go on record them
selves It Is known that a resolution which
provides that the ofilro of city treaturer shall
be detlaiedacant Is now reposing In tb
Intlde pucke-t of one member of the council.
and It will be unloaded at tonight1 ! meeting.
Several members have declared thut they ;
would vote for It If they had to htand alont.
The friends of Mr. Ilolln will probably aik to
have the resolution referred to u commltte
and huch a proposition may be ncquletced In.
