Chicago Socialists .Denounce Blaine.
Special Duptich to Ths Cce
CHICAGO , MarJi 21 1 a. m. The
socialiain of Chicago met Sunday af *
ternoon and adopted the following :
Resolved , That we , the socialists of
Chicago , Americm citizens , earnestly
protest against tha action of James G.
Blaine , secntwy of etate , in consti
tuting himself the mouthpiece of the
American pooplnnd also in their
name , in an i ffictal dispatch to the
clique of inhumiu tyrants who sur-
rpund the Rus-un throne , expressed
regrets and condolence for execution
of the czar ; * nd ,
Resolved , That notwithstanding the
fact that the overwhelming nues of
the American people believe iu free
speech , freu prca , and the inherent
rights of the people , so ablv sat forth
in the D eel j ratio a af Independence ,
we respctfu ly snggottto J. tJ. Blaine
that it would be in perfect acejrd with
hlsrec'tu dispatch of condolence for
him to ssnd , in the name of the
American people , official messages of
approval , and pledgas of active sup
port to every brutal tyrant in the
civilized world , whtse desire and pur
pose ia to repress and crush out every
principle and sentiment that makes
such a declaration of independence
possible ; and ,
Resolved , That we condemn the re
peated expression , official and other
wise , of the friendship of the Ameri
can peoplefor the despotic government
of Russia , as disgraceful and danger
ous to the extreme , inasmuch IB it
encourages tyranny and oppression
verywhere , and correspondingly dis
courages every effort of the oppressed
to secure for themselves thosu rights
aud that freedom which the American
people so proudly boast , and for the
maintenance of which they loudly
proclaim their readiness to stcrifica
their property and lives ; and ,
Rtsolttd , That our only regret con
nected with the execution of the czar
is that the destructive force of the
explosion that destroyed his miserable
life , did not include m its destructive
scope every tyrant whose existence
Imperils or prevents the progress of
human freedom , and the tnjoyment
of the rights referred to in the pre
ceding resolutions ; and ,
Euolrcd , That the welfare of the
human race demands , not only t * n
destruction of the czirs , empero . ,
kings , Bttmaroks , and other oppn

system of society that breeds then ,

ST. Louis , March 19. Considerable
snow has fallen , but melted as it fell.
The heaviest snow storm of the sea
son prevailed here nil day , with a
strong driving wind from the west ,
but the snow melted as fast as it fell.
The streets to-night are filled with
! slush , 4ome places several inches
deep. Dispatches from different parts
| of the state say the heaviest snow of
the season has fallen since last night ,
especially that part north of the fills -
| souri river. The average depth of
snow is over a font , but in some places
It Is two feet deep. Railroad travel
| is a good deal impeded , and business
I is suffering , but no trains are reported
abandoned. The snow will probably
disappear in two or three days , and
freshets in email streams may be ex
pected. .
CHICAGO , March 20 10 p. m. The
great storm has at last subsided , and
everybody , in Chicago at least , hopes
it will be the last storm of this excep
tionally long and severe winter. In
many respects this storm , which set
id Friday night and continued until
to-night , has been the worst of the
whole winter. It was a damp , soggy
snow , driven by a furious gale from
thirty to forty miles an honr , drifting
on top and melting beneath , sticking
to everything and rendering locomo
tion almost impossible. The street
car lines of the city wore entirely
closed , and the cars were run into the
barns. About noon to-day , after
thirty hours of hard snowing , there
were signs of a let up , but a light
snow continued during the attornoon ,
aud although it is not snowing at 10
p. m. the appearances are that it is
not entirely over yet. The Madison
street car -Hno was opened this after
noon as far west as Western avenue ,
and the single track on Randolph
street and Millaukee .and Ogden ave
nues were dug out. All the other
west side car lines remain under tbe
snow , and will not be opened before
to-morrow. A single line hai been
opened to the north division on the
south side. The main * lines only are
open , and cars are running irregu
larly. Tne steam railroads have been
working bravely to keep their lines in
operation , but have not succeeded to
any great extent. The snow , how
ever , is'not over a foot in depth ex
cept whore it has drifted , and within
a day or two all tracks in this region
can be cleared. The storm is said by
the weather bureau to have come from
Texas , but this IB difficult t } under
stand or believe , since for twenty-four
hours before it began , and daring the
hardest pirt of it , the wind blew from
the erst and northeast. In fact the
weather bnreaa gets voiy little credit
in these quarter ; , since it predicted
f r Saturday and Sunday "light rain
and clearing weather. " Vennor is
given all tha honors , he having fore
told it exactly months before. From
apodal reports received the storm ap
pears to have extended with equal
sevarily from the Missouri river east
to Buffalo , and from St. Paul south
to Memphis , on. the southern line
rain ana tliei taking the place of
snow.

THE SPEAKBRSHIP.
Tne increasing probability that an

contest. The only eastern candidate
of prominouce is Frank HLscock , c f
New York , who will be supported by
the republicans cf his own xtato and
those of Pennsylvania and New Eng
land. The west has to prominent
candidates , Kasaon/ IIVT'B , and
Keifer , of Ohio. Burrows , of Michi
gan , is also in tha field , -but has no
considerable chance. The contest h
generally believed to be between His-
cook and Kasaon , with the prospects
at present favoring the former. It is
decided to call an ex'.ri ncsiion this
spring.
THE SENATE OFFICERS.
Aociatcd Press Dl patch.
WASHIHOTOJJ , March 19. Several
republican uenutora , amen ? whom are
Ing ills and Blir , think the republi
cans should vote for ihe committees
and let the democrats hold the senate
officers until December , unless an ex
tra session be called. The democrats
are united in the determination to
fight against any present change of of
ficers. Bayard , Hampton and several
others who advocated the policy of a
general change have been overruled
by the voice of the caucus , and the
opinion now is the officers will not be
changed until Decamber , ur.less an
extra session of congress is called.
The republican aenstora have not
yet caucassed upon the subject of
moving for & change in the senate of
ficers during this special sea-ion , and
serenl of them are tncline.1 to favor
the retention of the present officers
until the 47th CDn rees s'lall have as
sembled in both branches , and espe
cially in that event is Jikely to occur
at'an erly day. Ic is argued that it
would be rather "crowding the mourn
ers" to throw the democratic officers
aud their subordinates out of emoloy-
ment suddenly and upon vpry short
notice , and besides theae considera
tions it will be liv ihe power of the
democrats to prevent any change in
the officers if theys lidly abstain from
voting on any resolution providing
for a change , and thus break the
requisite quorum It is quite doubt
ful , however , whether all the demo
crats would consent to filibuster for
this purpose , and if two of them or
one democrat and Judge Davis vote
either way the republicans would be
successful. Whenever the charges
are made George C. Gorham will un
doubtedly be re-elected secretary of
the aenal e , and James R. YoQog , of
Pennsylvania , executive clerk. The
office of serjeant-at-arms seems by
common consent to be practically at
the disposal of Senator Mahone , but
it does not appear that he has decided
upon a candidate acceptable to the re
publicans , and this is probably the
secret cause of the delay in the whole
matter.

A Lady Serieualy Injured by
the Fal.
About four o'clock Friday evening , a
painful accident happened on North
Nineteenth , street , to a Mr. and Mrs.
Lesaentine , residents i > f Saratoga pre
cinct , near the barracks. They had
boon to town and wtro returning
northward to their home , in A cutter ,
-driving a. faithful horao. The total
absence of snow on the brldga which
spans the north branch of Omaha
creek , of course , made it 'difficult
for the hone to pull a
sleigh a.ross it ni in the at
tempt , tha breast strap of
the harness choked the animal so much
as to either render him blind or in
sensible , for he staggered against tl e
aide-railing and fell into the creek ,
taking the cutter and occnpanta with
him. The fall was a distance of about
ten feet. Mra. Lcssontlne was badly
injured , while her husband escaped
snhart. Ho carried his wife to the
house of Mr. Herricks , living ner at
hand , whore every means was provid
ed for her comfort. Dr. Oonkling was
called and examined the lady.
He did not think any of her riba
were broken aa was thought by her-
Belfybut internal injuries were sus
tained to an extent that may prove
serious. Her right arm was badly
bruised , also. Ic was thought best to
remove her and a carriage was prepared -
pared for her comfort , she being able
to make the trip home late in the
evoning.
The cutter wsa pretty badly broken ,
but the horse escaped injury.

bridge a moment , Mr. Stork stepped
off to look after his property and was
walkln g along the loot-board by the
train when his toot slipped atd he
was precipitated to the ground , a din-
tan ce cf sixty feet , breaking his skull
and both legs. Ho is still alive but
cannot survive his injuries.
Tom Earnhardtof Lincoln , a freight
