There Is still n good deal of excitement
here , fanned by Inflammatory talk , nnd

bo sustained in their dastardly deed by the
general nontitncnt of the community ,

this morning , but Is at this time resting
quietly. It is now found that five bullets
took effect upon him , ono only grazing his
neck nnd another his side. The ono which
passed through his shoulder , shattering the
bones , was a : i3-calibrc. The first shot took
effect when the parties were opposite Wes-
' torvclt's.

affair , was found last night hid in a cellar
between here and the junction.

to Ho In Chicago.
CHICAGO , Feb. 12. [ Special Telegram to
THK UEK.J The Interest In Tascott , the al
leged murderer of A. J. Sncll , has been re
vived to nn Intense degree by n burglary
which wns committed nt the house of J.V. \ .
McLean , 22) ) lioklcn avenue , nnd in which it
is supposed that the burglar was none other
than the long lost Willie. The house wns
entered about 'J o'clock in the morning. The
burglar proceeded to the bed-room of Mr.
and Mrs. McLean , but the latter awoke , snt
up in bed nnd shrieked , The burglar cov
ered her with a revolver , eyed her steadily
and slowly retired from the room. Mr. Mc
Lean wns awakened by his wife's shriek and
started to follow the burglar , but his wife
threw her arms around him , and before ho
broke loose from her the burglar had van-
nlsliccl ,
Mrs. McLean describes him as young and
well ilrasHed , wearing a round stiff hat nnd
frock coat. Ills eyes were largo and bril
liant. She says she would surely know the
man if ever she saw him again. It Is said by
those who know that Mrs. McLean's de
scription tallies with Tascott , nnd that there
is no doubt that the burglar was ho.
When Mr. A. J. Stone wns told of the
affair this morning and nskcd what
ho thought about It , ho replied :
"I had not heard anything of the affair , and
know nomi of the particulars. It has always
been my opinion , however , that when Tns-
colt is caught It will bo In that sort of way.
I would not bo at nil surprised if this was
the fellow , because ho is such an Inveterate
thief that ho could not stop stealing if ho
tried. "
"What do you think of the alleged state
ment of some of the otllcers that they have
Information that ho is in Chicago ! "
"Oh , 1 have been of the opinion for n long
time that ho Is in Chicago. Of course , as a
matter of policy and prudence , we have
thought it our duty to run down every clue
nnd reports wo have received concerning
him , though wo did not take much stock in
them nt the outset. 1 have been of tlio opin
ion that ho is in Chicago for a long time , and
I have been confirmed In that opinion ever
since I came back from the mountains last
April. His presence here would not bo
nearly so likely to create suspicion as would
the presence of a stranger in a small place.
There is no plnco where ho would have so
many friends and acquaintances to take care
of him as hero. " .
CUBAN ANNKXATION.
Ulainu ThlnlcH We OiiKht to Hnvc the
I .land.
NEW YOUK , Feb. 12. [ Special Telegram to
Tnu HER , ] Tno Herald's Washington special
says : Ifccently Congressman Millikcn of
Maine nnd his cousin , Scth Millikcn of New
York , who is a largo manufacturer and 1ms
investments in the south , called on Hlaino on
private business. During the conversation
the merchant , who has known Hlaino for
years , asked him if he was iu favor of the
annexation of Canada. Millikcn says Hlaino
replied that ho was , but that he did not \hink
it would bo brought about by agitatioc. In
the course of time ho thought the Dominion
would naturally gravitate into tlio American
union. If we were rea'ching after territory
to increase our wealth and strength , ho
thought Cuba should bo the place for us to
secure first. "In its relation to health , " said
Mr. Hlalnc , "Cuba is the natural homo of
pestilential diseases , especially yellow fever.
Under * the dueetlon of our eminent sanita
rians I have nut the slightest doubt that the
existing cause of this dreaded disease could
be exterminated from every part of the terri
tory of Cuba. In point of economy it would
bo cheaper for the United States to buy the
island from Spain at almost any cost
rather than it should bo a constant
menace to the health nnd prosperity of the
southern states. The cost , directly nnd in
directly , to the business of the country dur
ing the last yellow fever was greater than
tbo value of Cuba , even if you put it on a
mere money basis. But when you consider
the peril to life which the fever constantly
brings , its purchase would not bo dear at
any price. The next object which makes it
valuable is its relation to the United States
as a strategic point. It practically controls
the Gulf of Mexico. It actually commands
positions which wo ought , in the natural
order of things , to possess and control. In
regard to its contributing to our wealth.Cuba
in the hands of Yankee people and by that
I mean the thrifty , energetic , inventive
American race would add immensely to our
prosperity. Under the control of skilled
labor its productive resources would ba In
creased u hundred fold. "

WASHINGTON , 'Fob. 12. The democratic
members of the ways and means committee
have practically completed their report on
the sensto amendment to the tariff bill. The
republican members of the committee will
bo supplied with a copy of the report for
their assistance in preparing a minority
report if they should decide to make ono.
The computations made by the treasury
department as to the probable effect on the
revenues of the tariff bill and senate amend
ments have been made public. They show
that the' honso bill would reduce collections
from customs $5'J,350OJ5 , and from Internal
revenue ? 17Glt'Jil ) ; , or u total reduction In
the revenue of ? 17OG'J,579. The bill as
amended by the senate would reduce the cus
toms collections $ i'JTtSS7 : , and the internal
revenue receipts $33,111)3,780 ) , or S47.SS3-
GG7 in the aggregate. Tlio average
ad valorem rates under the existing law is
$40.'J1 ; under the house bill it would bo SI2.-JS ,
and under the senate bill $10. In his letter
transmitting the computations the secretary
says that to avoid extra delay nnd labor the
department may use the estimates formerly
prepared , based on the importations for 1837.
"Although made according to the plan and
theory usually adopted " ho "I
, says , recog
nize that these estimates are largely conject
ural and more or less unreliable and mislead
ing. " .
An International Conference.
WASHINGTON , Fob. 12. llopresontatlvo
Towushcnd of Illinois , to-day introduced n
bill amending the act authorizing the presi
dent to arrange u conference between the
United States and the republics of Mexico ,
Central and South America , Haytl , San Do
mingo and the empire of Brazil , so us to
include the Dominion of Canada. The presi
dent Is authorized to invite representatives
of the several governments of the countries
named to join the United States in a confer
ence to be held In this city for the purpose
of recommending for adoption to their res
pective governments , of some plan of arbi
tration tor settlements of disagreements or
disputes that may hereafter arise among
them. One of the questions for the confer
ence to consider , besides those already pro
vided for In the act of last year , is the es
tablishment of regular nud fre ] uont com
munication between the ports of the said
said several countries.
Mr. Townshund says ho was impelled to
offer his amendment because he received
information from Canada that a large
number of the people of the Dominion are
anxious to join the other American nations
In the conference.

discovered Hint ( Jencrnl Noble , of St. Louis ,
one of the leading attorneys of that city , was
' U.o cabinet postlbllitlcs ; Ho Is naiuoil
for attorney general. Wh.it particularly
recommends and renders possible , if not
probable , the selection of General Noble Is
the fact that ho is not identified with any
party faction In his state. It is snld that the
withdrawal of Hon. John 13. Henderson's
name from the list of cabinet possibilities
was necessitated largely upon these grounds.
General Harrison had , perhaps , ns ninny ns

The > rornioiiH Knocked Out.
OGOBN , Utah , Feb. 12. | Special Tele
gram to TUB BUB. ] In the municipal
election yesterday the liberals elected their
full ticket by majorities averaging about
four hundred and twenty-five. The mayor-
elect is F. J. Kiescl , n wholesale grocer , who
has been a citizen or Utah for twenty live
years. The defeated candidate , John A.
Boyle , is also an old-time resident and
staunch Mormon. Ogden is the first town in
Utah to elect u gcntilo mayor , and the event
is looked upon as a great victory , not only
for this city , but for the whole territory , as
it will encourage the liberals in other towns ,
and more speedily bring about the end being
sought , that of inducing immigration to
Utah. Heretofore the people of the east
have looked upon this territory as being
completely under Mormon rule , and they
have been slow to undertake investments or
even residence here. Trie gentiles of Ogden
are particularly proud ol their success , in
that they feel that they are now in the lead ,
and that by diligent effort they can hold it.

WASHINGTON , Fob. 12 , In executive ses
sion of the senate this nfternoon Senator
Plumb , from the committee on agriculture ,

man J. Coleman , of Missouri , to bo secre
tary of agriculture. Under the rule In went

commissioner in place of Edgerton , removed ,
and of First Assistant Postmaster Steven
son to bo judge of the suprpmo court of the
District of Columbia , will bo subject to the
general rule adopted by the majority at the
senate respecting "political relations. The
objection to Stevenson is said to bo in the
fact that his nomination is in violation of tlio
republican platform concerning territorial
offices , that they shall be filled by residents.
Thompson is objected to on the score of ex
treme offensive partisanship in the South
Carolina elections.

Kennedy Must Hans ; .
DKS MOINCS , la. , Toi ) . 13 ; [ Special Tele
gram to Tin : Bii.j : : The sjyireme court this
evening filed a decision In the Kennedy mur
der case , refusing n new trial or to interfere
to stop his execution. The crime for which
Honiara Kennedy was sentenced at Dubun.ua
to bo hung was one of the most brutal and
revolting kind. Ho was convicted of having
murdered his wife on April 25 , 1337. Her
body , horribly mutilated , was found about
half a mile from the house the next morning.
The evidence on which ho was convicted ,
was chiolly circumstantial , the principal wit
ness against him being his own child , a little
boy. The boy testified that his father came
homo late on the evening Of the i5th ! and
asked him to get him a towel. Ho said that
the father's ' hands and fncd were bloody , and
that the fattier wiped o.'T the blood in his
presence and then asked him 'it ho thought
ho could get along without his mother.
Every effort in court to break down the tes
timony of the little boy failed , and it had
mueh to do with Kennedy's ' conviolion.
Kennedy and ills wife were botli accus
tomed to drinking. He was sentenced to bo
hung on Friday , March 1 , next. The appeal
to the supreme court sets aside and requires ,
in case the sentence is confirmed , that thi
governor shall name either that or sonic
other day for the exooutioO. It is thought
that Governor Lan-abee-wiU , name the same
day March 1 that was nqm.-Jd by the judge
of the lower court. '

for the state , saying that nothing had been

the witness what was going on at the hoy's
homo. Murphy went with the boy , nnd
from his hiding place heard the
cries of the father and the voices of the men.

with him. Other witnesses gave equally
damaging testimony. The defense intro
duced evidence tending to show that Norman
and his wife had n bad character. The most

The nominations of Thompson , of South
Carolina , to be civil service commissioner
vice Edgerton , removed , and Stephens , of
Illinois , to bo justice of the supreme vouri ot
this district , will not bo confirmed. Objec
tion is made to Thompson on personal ns
well ns general grounds. In the tlr.st plnco
ho Is not considered n tit man for the post *
tlon to which ho lias been nominated. Ho
was elected governor of South Carolina nt n
time when there was wholesale Intimidation
of colored nml white republican voters , nnd
high bunded frauds nt the ballot boxes. Ho
is not regarded In any sense ns i
civil service reformer , and thq /
who have studied his political career >
amused that the president , who pretends1 CV )
ho n civil service reformer , should appoint
him to a position of this kind. South Caro.
Una republicans have asked the senate to
withhold action till they can bo heard. They
propose to discuss the part Thompson nnd
his friends have taken in South Carolina
politics , nnd the senate will not only wait to
hear of the political charges which may bo
brought against Thompson , but they will
wait till President Harrison makes n nomi
nation ocfore they confirm any man to tin
position of civil service commissioner.

Una , whoso contest for the scat of
Elliott is now pending in tlio house ,
will lay before the senate committee having
Thompson's nomination in charge , some testi
mony bearing upon the part Thompson has
taken in the elections in his state , which
Smalls says will be highly Interesting and
very Important , Ho thinks it would bo nn
outrage upon the southern republicans and
an affront to decent politicians in nil sections
of the country to conllrm the nomination of
Thompson.
HXTIIA SKSSIO.V TALK. '
It is the almost unanimous belief of the re
publicans in the house that President Hnrri-
son will call an extra session of the Fifty-
llrst congress for tariff legislation and the
admission of new states. A majority be
lieve tnat the extra session will convene in"
April. The others thltiK it will come to
gether about the 1st of November. The latter - '
tor date Is regarded as the most
probable one by Major McKinluy ,
of Ohio , who appears to be in the lead for the
spcnkcrship. Representative Posey , of
Indiana , who has just come from his homo to
succeed Governor Hovey , and is supposed to
know something of General Harrison's feel
ings on the subject , said to-day that ho al
most knew that there would be an extra
session called. He is not the only ono re
cently from Indiana , however , who is im-
pressca with the idea that a called session is
certain. The only argument that has been
made against it \ : that to have congress in
session during the first months of his tcrin
would be n source of annoyance ' to the new
president on account of the office seekers.
Yet it is conceded on every hand thnfrit will
bo better to have men in congress seeking
the appointments rather than their constit
uents. Hut it is understood that General
Hnrrison himself feels that the necessity of
an immediate organization of the house is too
pressing to bo overbalanced by any consider
ation of mere inconvenience. Ho is said to
feel that the most important tiling for the re
publicans now is tp hold the two houses of
congress , and to clear away all the perplex
ing muttdrs of legislation that nro pressing
for consideration early in his term , that
they may not drag on throughout his ad
ministration to cmbarnss it , nor remain
to complicate matters as the next
election approaches. Hcsidcs this , a
large majority of the republicans In
both houses of congress nro convinced
that n special session is necessary to the
well-being of the party , and they are urging
upon the president that ho call them to
gether about April. Very little , if any , leg
islation can bo accomplished before the closa
of this session , and then will come the next-
congress with heavy responsibilities nnd SO
small and so uncertain a majority that during - *
ing the time between the 'Ith of March and
the first week in December It might bo wiped
out , so that the republicans could not organ
ize the liouso at all. Hut even if this should ,
not occur , there would remain for the re
publican congress , with hardly u working
majority , n great deal of important legisla
tion that must bo disposed of in some way ,
besides being embarrassed by many con
tested election cases , over which there will
be hard lighting and probably some filibuster
ing , but to start with , they are threatened
with a hard fight over the adoption of noxv
rules. It Is important , if the republican
house is to do anything during tlio n'ext two -
years , that the rules would bo amended so as
to extend the powers of the majority.
