Toi'KiU , Kan , , Jan. a. The supreme court
today hoard arguments in the mandamus
proceedings brought by the people's party
central committee to compel the clerks of
Coffey , Hnskell , Jackson nnd Iteno counties
'to Issue certificates of election to the pee
ple's party candidates for election to the
lower house from these districts.
The latter county Is that In which the clerk
of the county , by error , wrote In the name of
Stubbs , the republican candidate , although
the returns showed Hoscnlhal , populist , to
Imvo been elected by a largo majority. It is
generally Iwlleved that the suuroino court
rectify this error and will order the
clerk lo issue a now certillcato to liosenthal.
Tlio ColToy county easels that In which
the canvassing board decided a tie by drawIng -
Ing lots. Since then It has been ascertained
that there was a mistake in the footing , and
that the correct footing gives tlio iwpullst
one majority. There seems no doubt hut
that the court will decide this case also in
favor of the populists ,
The other two wises result from the fall-
uro of the legislature in rodistrictlng the
state to 'name the town of Hoi ton as consti
tuting n part of the Jackson county district
nnd the town of Nickcrsnn as constituting a
part of the Iteno district. No one lias any
opinion lo offer as to the decision of
the court in these cases. The court
took the cases under advisement and
announced that decisions would bo banded
down tomorrow. If the ixjpullsts win all four
cases they will have a majority ot the lower
house , nnd will be able to organize that body.
If they win one , two or three of them the
democrats will hold Iho balance of power.
while if they lose all the republicans will
have a majority over all of one.
UHii | the dceislou of these cases rests the
selection of a United States senator and
much of the legislation of the coming session.
If the | Hmllsts ] secure control of the lower
house they will not only lie enabled to name
Senator Perkins' successor but they will
liavo In their bauds all branches of the state

BISMARCK , N. D. , Jan. It. The chief later-
cst in the session of the North Dakota
legislature , which convened today ,
centers in the contest for a suc
cessor to United States Senator
Casey. The republicans have a clear major
ity and thu rcsult'hingcs on the decision of
the party caucus. Caucuses for ofllccrs of
both houses were held this morning , but op
ponents of Senator Casey hope to secure his
defeat by preventing a caucus on the scnn-
torshlp. It is alleged that some of
them have made overtures to the
democrats and called the attention
of the matter to Cleveland. The latter , it is
said , refused to have anything to do with it ,
saying-the. party could not afford to run the
'risKdfbeliig charged with corruption , and
ncivising the election of as clean a represen
tative as possible. The other candidates in
clude State Senator Worst , W. J. Anderson ,
Colonel Kingnmn and J. 1 { . Smith , It seems
likely that Casey will bo elected in the end.
The house today organized with George
Walsh speaker , J. G. Hamilton chief clerk
nnd a full sot of olUccrs as chosen by the
republican caucus this morning.
The republican senators , who have a
majority of the upper house , in caucus today
npportione.d all the committees and notified
Lieutenant Governor Wallace , who was
elected by the democratic-populist fusionists ,
that if ho would appoint the committees as
named bo would bo permitted to do so with
out any show of friction. If lie did not
the republican senators would organise
the senate without paying any attention to
him. At noon the senate organized in ac
cordance with the action of the republican
caucus. It is claimed that the election of
ofllcers of the houses is no indication of the
strength of the senatorial candidates.
In his message GovernorShortridgo recom
mended amendment of the Australian ballot

chosen speaker of the house and A. Johnson ,

combination of democrats and alHaueo'mcn or
ganized the senate. This year the repub
licans secured the adherence of three alliance
men , formerly republicans and secured con
trol , Lieutenant Governor dough from
whom power to appoint committee was
taken by the combination last year , will
have the privilege restored this year. Sen

the republicans filled thu other olllees.
Governor Nelson was sworn In today , but
Ills inauguration proper will not take place

ST. PAUL , Minn. , Jan. ! ) . A caucus of the
republican members of the legislature has
been eallo.l for tomorrow night to select a
United States senator to succeed Cuslnnan
A. Davis , wliobti term will expire March 4.
* There is no question as to the result. At
each of thu .state conventions last year
ntroni ; resolutions endorsing Senator Davis
for ro-cicction were adopted unanimously.
Nearly every republican legislative conven
tion adopted similar resolutions , the great
majority of the republican legis
lative . candidates are pledged to
support him and his can
didacy was ono of the chief Issues In the
Minnesota campaign. In which the ropubll-
cans swept everything. The result of all
this has been that there is practically no op.
position to his re-election , and the joint
caucus will undoubtedly decide in his favor
by acclamation. There has been some talk
to the contrary but It has been oulsldo the
members of the two houses , a poll of which
shows n clear majority in each branch for
the ro-oleotlon of Senator Davis ,

Jzo a separate house , as they had withdrawn -

details of the "combine" are unknown , but it
utvea tno democrats a majority on Joint bat

Interest now centers in the democratic
choice for senator , the leading candidate ! :
being Congressman Uixon , A , A , Clarke and
qiq-Govornor Samuel T. Huusor. Nineteen

and prominent politicians , gathered hero to
witness an unusual event In this state ,
the assembling of a democratic leg
islature. Tlio fight for the ofllces
In the gift of the legislature
grows hotter nnd some bad feeling has been
engendered , particularly in the senate , where
two democratic factions are striving for su
premacy , which gives the control of the or
ganization and the committee chairman
ships. The caucuses of both parties of both
houses are set for tonight. It
Is likely some of 'them will last
till midnight. The house democrats
will immo Clayton E. Craft for speaker and
Calub C. .Tohnson for temporary speaker.
Probably Koburl McKlndley will bo chosen
chairman or the caucus. The clerkship of
the house has been settled by compromise.
K. W. Hose , register of the general land
oftlco under Cleveland , will ho clerk.
Ono tiling Is certain , however. Miss
Agnes O'Conhell will bo cither postmistress
or llrst assistant.
The senate democratic caucus promises
to result In much 111 feeling. Opponents of
Senator O'Connor's candidacy for president
pro tern have boon very active , and claim to
have eighteen out of twenty-nine votes and
ho will probably bo defeated , though his
friends claim seventeen votes for him. The
opposition will cither combine on Senator
Coppingor or Illgbeo. If successful It means
a now deal in the senate and elements which
have heretofore controlled legislation will bo
relegated to the rear.
There is no serious rivalry for the empty
honor of the caucus nomination for presi
dent pro tern among the republicans of the
scnato , but the candidates for the speaker-
ship nomination are plenty , ns that generally
carries with It the leadership of the minority
in the house and the dictating of the minor
ity committee assignments.
Hawlcy of Kane county seems to bo In the
lead. Eriekson of Cook is the only candi
date for the republican caucus nomination
for temporary speaker.
In tlie senate democratic caucus tonight an
attempt will bo made to pass -resolution

Act In thu Home ,
WASHI.VOTOX , 1) . C. . Jan. a The senator
and representatives who go home during the
holiday recess rarely hasten their return to
the cnpitot , so there is likely to be n small
attendance in both houses tomorrow , when
congress will meet again , and the seats will
probably not bo Illicit before next week.
In the sentUo there are Indications of a
struggle for place between the anti-options
bllli the bill fortho repeal of the purchase of
silver act , and quarantine and Immigration
suspension bills.
CJ'l'ho llrst business In order will ho the Me-
Oarrahali bill , which comes up by unanimous
consent in the morning hour. Senator Wil
son of Iowa and others have speeches to
deliver on this subject and they promise to
occupy the morning hours during the week ,
much to the concern of the friends of
the "great claimant , " who realize that
the bill cannot long bo kept In its
privileged condition to the exclusion of other
business.
Anti-Option nnd Silver.
After the morning hour tomorrow the anti-
option bill will probably bo taken -up for
further debate. *
Senator MuPhcrson , before the recess ,
gave notice that ho would call up his reso
lution to repeal the Sherman silver act
promptly on the assembling of congress , and
ho can at least succeed in delivering li speech
on the subject. More than that can hardly
ho expected at this time in view of the re
luctance of republican senators to move in
the matter until a settled line of policy is
adopted at the caucus soon to bo held.
The immigration committee is extremely
anxious to take some action on the quaran
tine and suspension bills , and if Mr. Wash-
burn docs not succeed in pushing his anti-
option bill to a vote , the Indications are
that they will make a determined effort to
displace that measuroTis the unfinished bus
iness. In this attempt they will have the
support of some senators who fear the
cholera , and others who fear th6 anti-options
bill , or who want to got on with other bus
iness. /
AVorlc In the House , '
The only business of importance likely to
bo transacted this week in the house is the
passage of the fortification appropriation
bill , which is in charge of Mr. Brcckinridge
of Kentucky. There is but slight chance
that a quorum will be present tomorrow and
the appropriation bill may not he called
until Thursday. The appropriation commit
tee expect that there will be little if any
general debate upon it , but that it will pass
durinpr the day.
Chairman Martin of the invalid pensions
committee will take the earliest opportunity
to call up.tho private pension bills which are
now on the calendar of unfinished business ,
but ho will not do so until he is convinced
that there is a quorum present to vote upon
them.
Altogether the remainder of tire week
promises to be uneventful in congress.

Carter of the republican national committee
was at the capitol today. lie was not com
municative as to his mission , but it soon
transpired tiiat ho was hero tinder * subpoena
from the judiciary committee of the senate.
A subcommittee of this committee , acting
under authority conferred by the senate , has
begun to take testimony in relation tochargcs
made against Ixmis McComas-- , who was
nominated to bo Judge of the supreme court ,
of the District of Columbia. It appears that
on u of the allegations in the case 13 that Mr.
McComas , whtio counsel forirnian iiiuncO
Gibson , who was representing certain Inter
ests in the Yellowstone Park association.
proposed to his client to influence the lain :
ofllco through the commlssIoner--tlien Mr.
Carter if the necessary fiuida wore forth
coming , It is on this point that Mr. Cartel
appeared today before the subcommittee to
give his testimony , which , it is understood
strongly negatives the implication that there
was any wrong doing in the matter within
his knowledge.
Talking about the probable outcome of the
senatorial contests now beginning in the
northwest , Mr. Carter said : "In my own
state the result is still doubtful , but with the
clmm-jcs in favor of the democrats. You see
the republicans have thirty-three members
of the leglislaturo ; the democrats thirty-live
and thu populists three , and it requires
thirty-six to elect. In order for us to suc
ceed , therefore' , it will require our getting
all the iionulist votes , whereas the demo
crats need but ono. Under these circum
stances I am afnd ! wo are hoatcn.
"In Wyoming the democrats and populists
together , have control of the lower branch of
the legislature , and there are two contested
cases , which I supixjso will bo decided
against the republicans , thus securing a ma
jority on Joint ballot , which will probably bo
used to elect u democratic senator. In Cali
fornia the legislature is against us. In Kan
sas and Nebraska there is a ehaneo that we
will bo able to elect our candidates. , but
there is considerable doubt about it. "

Nine bridges across " 'the river between the

order that each state might tax only
those parts of the bridges that are within
Its Ixmndarics. Iowa contends that the
boundary runs through the middle of the
main body of the river , regardless of the
steamboat channel , and that measurements
should be taken nt the nornhtl stage of the
water. Illinois claimed that the jurisdiction
of each state extended to Iho middle of the

Illinois view of the matter , holding Unit
the true boundary is the middle of the miilit

Clinlmcr M. C. Prentice' , a physician of
r\orwailt , O. , while traveling on excursion
tickets with his wifeand , other persons on
the I < nko Shore railroad to Chicago , pur-
cluised the return trip tickets of a number
of passengers. The conductor learned of
this , arrested PrentiL'o Just before reaching
Chicago , subjecting him to violence nnd his
wife to Insult , and hud 1'rentlco locked upon
a charge of disorderly conduct , which
charge was dismissed the next day for lack
of appearance on the part of the conductor.
Prentice sued the railroad company , which
admitted that the arrest was wrong. The
company , however , objected to the charge of
the Judge that the damages iu the way of
compensation might be awarded for the
humiliation suffered and also exemplary
damages as a punishment for the offense.
Judgment for * 10iH ( ) ) was brought in , but
subsequently Prentice had it reduced to
$0,000. The railroad appealed notwithstand
ing Prentice's voluntary net , done probably
to avert an appeal. In an opinion by Justice
Gray , thu supreme court today upheld the
Judge's charge , except as to exemplary dam
ages , ruling that the railroad company can-
puny cannot bo punished for the wanton

Talent Hlflit Infringement.
Bv a vote of 3 to n tho'Unlted States supreme
premo court today afllrmed , by a divided
court , the Judgments of the lower court in
the cross suits between William Shannon
and Preston Hi-uncr , both df Missouri , over
thp use by llruner , without consent , of the
reissued Schillinger patents for an improvc-
inen in concrete pavements. The lower
court decided in favor of the valid
ity of the KchllTiilt'cr patent and re
ferred the umttjbr1 to a master for n
report ns to the amount of damages
to be awarded. His- report , which was ap
proved , gave only nutninal damages , on the
ground that Briimh * might have laid the
pavements he mit down by use of olhcr
means than those1 t'ovcrcd by the Schill
inger patent and Jhat there were no special
profits arising out flfthe , use of the patent of
Schillinger. Neither , side was entirely satis-
lied with the resulu so that the matter came
hero with each side appealing. Justices
Field , Ilurlun and Lumar did not sit in the
case. " ' ' '
The I.ott.oy'carrlcr ' Cases.
Solicitor General'Aldrieh ' , for the govern
ment , made a motion' ' to advance what arc
known as the lotteftearricr cases. The cases
arise under an act pf congress of March JM ,
1833 , " to limit thqihujnp p.f letter carriers in
cities , who shall bwimployqU per day , " ami
involve-the questions whether carrier is
entitled to count all work performed bv him
whether on the street or in delivering or col
lecting mails in making un.inail for delivery
in the post onice | or in doing other postiu
service under direction of the postmaster ,
whether ho is entitled to extra
pay for any time which he
works in excess of eight hours in
any one day , oven though he may work less
than eight hours on some other day , and
other questions important to the administra
tion of the postofllcQ department. The cases
came to the supreme court on appeals from
the court of claims , where the decisions
were against the United States and in favor
of the letter carriers. They aflcet a very
'
largo number , if not all the letter carrier's
throughout the United Sttttcs , and a largo
sum of money is involved in the decision.
1'rojiorty at .Married Women.
The court today , through Justice Field ,
rcndcrcd > a decision in effect that in Ohio ,
part of the property of a married woman
could not bo charged in equity by contracts
executed previous to the existence of that
property. The case on .which the decision
was bused was that of Joseph A. and Wil
liam H. Ankney , appellants , against Clara
M. and Joseph E. Ilannon , and came to the
supreme court on appeal from the United
States circuit court for tlio southern
district of Ohio. J. E. and Clara M.
Ilannon executed promissory notes at
Xenia , O. , which Ilannon filed with the in
tention ( as stated in writing on each note ) of
making them a charge upon her separate es
tate , both real and personal. Mrs. Ilannon
possessed a small amount of property at the
time the notes were made and became pos
sessed of more later. The suit to recover
the amount of the notes sought to enjoin her
after she had acquired a separate estate , but
the supreme court today took the ground
that the said separate estate could not beheld
held accountable.

BLUFFING THE BOAKD.
-Mr. llltrhcoclc Triuufvr * IIU limit cr from
Print to I'ruttlo.
After doing considerable business of Flro
and Police commissioners last night the
members took up the work of a license
Iward and set the following protested cases
for hearing next Friday evening : K. Stuht ,
Murray & CullliiRham , M. Kilgallou , F.
Plnzenscham , Matt llouland and M. Walenz.
The proprietor of the World-Herald then
addressed the board in regard to his pro
tested cases. Mr. Hitchcock asked the
board to lay down rules and regulations to
be followed by the attorneys for both sides ,
Ho declared that ho had not hail fair Play
and Impugned the motives of some members
of the board in passing the resolution declar
ing 'I un Br.uthe papcrhavlngthe largest cir
culation. Hesaid that the preliminary steps
were taken in the Interest of Tun Hnis , when
they asked for the circulation for three
months Instead of for the month of October ,
as had been the usual custom. Then refer
ring to the decision In the Frit a Miller case. '
Mr. Hitchcock said that It was immaterial
whether the advertiser acted in good faith
or not. and again accused thp board of work
ing In the interest of Tun Urn : . He thought
his rights had been trampled upon , and that
the board owed tin explanation of its actions
to the public.
Mr. Kosewnter sild : that ho did not como
before the commissioners to impugn their
motions or to cast slurs upon them , but to
make hrielly a statement of facts. Ho was
in New York when the board passed its res-
olutiou asking for bids from the newspapers
and knew nothing about it until some time
later. The action of iho board had been
the same as license boards elsewhere.
He set- forth the fact thai Tun Moitx-
INO I3ii : ! and TUB ICvr.xtsii Br.ts were
two separate anil distinct papers , and
that the bid put in by Tin : Btr. : Publishing
company hail been strictly in accordance
with the resolution asking for bids. Mention
was made of the way in which tlio World-
Herald was Imposing on a few credulous people
ple by offering a guarantee , which
was nothing but a confidence game
played for tlio purpose of roping
in people who wore easily duped.
lo substantiate his statements regarding
1 HI : Br.is circulation , Mr. Hoscwater declared
that Tin : Evr.Niso Urn : alone had a larger
number of papers , delivered by carrier in the
city of Omaha than the entire circulation of
the World-Herald , including their Sunday
edition.
"If this is not so I will forfeit $5,000 and I
will print the name and address of every
subscriber in the paper every day for twenty
days to prove my assertion. "
