How the Death of a Democratic Senator
May Affect It.
HE BITTERLY OPPOSED BLACKBURN
Republicans Declare That They Will Now
Elect St. John Boyle, as the Dead Sena
tor's Place Cannot be Filled During
the Present Session.
1 iUNKFOttT, March 10. For tho second
tlmo death has added to tho complexity of
ft sonntorlol contest that has onirrossed
public Interest In this stnto for two months
and attracted wide attontlon throughout
mo country. Tho death of Senator Rosol
Wolsslngcr, of Louisville, yesterday ro-
moves ono of the most nctlvo and onorgetlo
ugures in tho senatorial light, a man who
has within tho past fow wcoks dofeatod
Dr. Hunter, tho Republican nominee, and
successfully bafflod ovory attompt of tho
followers of Senator Blackburn to Beouro
tho ro-olcction of that leader.
Tho exact political oHect of tho sad event
cannot bo tlotormlned, but this morning
an olootlon scorns moro remote than ever,
Tho Republicans now havo sixty-eight
members of tho legislature and tho Demo
crats slxty-sovon, with a probability of tho
support of tho two Populist membors us
long as Blackburn Is their nominee. Tak
ing Into tho consideration tho announced
determination of tho Republicans to forco
a voto In tho house today upon tho Dun-lap-Kaufiuau
contest caso for tho purposo
of tho unseating of Kaufman, Democrat,
tho key to tho situation sooms to bo tho nt-
Mtudolilcutonant Governor Worthington,
who presides at tho joint sosslons, will
tuko upon tho question of n nuorum.
If tho lleutonnnt govornor holds to tho
uecision hols said to havo announced when
n vacancy was caused by tho death of Rep
resentative Wilson, that soventy shall con
stitute a quorum of the joint session, tho
uepuuucuns, oven by seating Dunlap, can
count upon only sixty-nine votes, and tho
Democrats, with tho two Populists, will
havo the samo number, so that either
party may break a quorum at will and
prevent uu election. If ho takes tho posi
tion that slnco tho death of Senator Wels
slnger sixty-nine members oonstltuto a
quorum tho election of St. John Hoylo, of
Loulsvlllo, can bo accomplished by tho
Republicans if they soat Dunlap and glvo
tho caucus nomlneo tho whole party
strength. This session will oxplro boforo
a successor to Mr. Wolsslngor can bo
elected.
It Is almost certain that today a voto
will bo taken In tho Dunlap-Kaufman caso,
nnd Kaufman, tho Domocratio member,
will bo unseated. Whether tho Democratic
senators retaliate or not, tho Republicans
assert that tho olectlon of Mr. lloylo Is a
certainty. Tho Democrats say thoy will
go Into tho joint session until an attempt
to unseat Kaufman is made. Uoyond that
1 10 politics of tho situation cannot bo foro
lold. 'iho last words of Senator Woisslngcr as
spoken to Ills collonguo, Sonator Violott,
nuu roportod uy tuac senator wero those:
"Violett, stand firm; stand Arm. Novor
voto for lilackburn and froo sllvor,'"
Richard W. Knott, editor of tho Louis
ville Post, said In substanco:
"Sonator Wclssingcr's friends who stood
out with him, along with those who
thought as ho did, hut dosorted him, owe
It to themselves, to their country uud to
tho cause to tnko good hood that those who
maligned him and worried him to the
grave shall not profit by I1I3 untlmoly
death."
Ktllngor's Ilody Reported Stolen.
Bellefoste, Pa., March 10. All sorts
of rumors are afloat here concerning tho
exhuming of tho body of William Ktllngor,
Woodward's sulcido outlaw. Tho Wood
ward people say that It was carrlod off
early Sunday morning by a party of young
men who arrived at that placo late Satur
day night from Lowlsburg. A visit to tho
grave found It in a seemingly undisturbed
condition, but ns there was nothing but
Btonos covering tho ooflln In tho first placo
It could not bo told whother thu body was
actually gone.
Cullom Is in to btny.
"WAsniKOTON. March 10. Sonator Cul
lom said regarding a story ns to his prob
nblo withdrawal from tho raco for presi
dential nomination: ''There Is not a
shadow of foundation for tho report. Tho
suggestion could only havo boon ndvaneod
by thoso who would llko to havo mo out
of tho way, and with tho mnllelous pur
poso of misleading tho Republicans of Illi
nois and tho country. I havo no intention
of withdrawing, nid will not withdraw.
Put that as plainly and emphatically as
you can find words with which to oxpross
the idea."

CUBAN RESOLUTIONS.
Still lleliiK Discussed III lliu Upper House
oT Confrren.
Wasiiixotom, March 10. Another stir
ring chapter In tho Spanish-Cuban con
troversy was added by tho sonato yester
day. Many senators Indioatud a desire to
bo heard on tho subject, and tho confer
ence report accepting tho house Cuban
resolutions went over until today. In an
ticipation that tho last stago of tho Cuban
question would bo reached tho sonato gal
leries wero besieged by tho createst crowd
soon slnco tho session opened. All of tho
publlo mid rosorved galleries wero filled to
ovcruowlng, with lomr linos of anxious
peoplo standing In tho outor corridors
engor to gain admission. Tho diplomatic
gallery was occupied by Ambassador Pato
notro of Franco, MInlstors Mendonea of
Brazil, Hatch of Hawaii, Baron Von Kot
lar of tho German embassy, Messrs. Ho
nnd Chung of tho Chinese legation, and
many of tho secretaries, attaches and
momuers or tho legation households.
Tho speech of tho day wos mado by
Senator Halo, of Malno, in vigorous op
position to this resolution nnd to tho
offensive lntorferenco of tho Unitod States
in forolgn questions. Tho sonntor declared
tnat tno Bplrlt of militarism was abroad
In the land; that our courso Involved tho
possibilities of war, with all its dreadful
consequences. Mr. Halo brouoht out tho
kindly action of Spain at tho tlmo of our
civil war, when British built privateers
were provontcd from remaining for any
length of tlmo In Spanish ports, and when
American prisoners wero aboard they wero
rcioascd by Spanish ordors.
A dramatlo lncldont occurred whon Mr,
Halo offered to road tho statomout of Min
ister Do Lome, of Spain, culling In ques
tion tho accuracy of some of tho state
ments mado by Senators Sherman, Mor
gan and Lodge concerning Spanish ntroc
ities. Mr. Davis, of Minnesota, quickly
objected to tho reception of a document
from a foreign minister not formally
transmitted. Messrs. Mitchell of Oregon,
Morgan and Teller added their protest In
tho samo direction. For a tlmo there was
soino confusion ond a prospect of a serious
conflict, but tho serenity of thodobato was
restored by Mr. Davis' withdrawal of his
objection.
It is oxpocted that tho dobato will con
tinue to havo animated phubos. Mr. Hoar
ouored a resolution yostorday postponing
all action on tho Cuban question until
April 0. This resolution may form tho
basis of opposition to an adoption of tho
house conference report. Another reso
lution by Mr. Hoar was adopted calling
on tho president for all available Informa
tion on the Cuban subject. Tho latter
part of tho day was given to tho Dupont
contest, air. Turplo, of Indiana, arguing
against tho claim of Mr. Dupont.
District of Columbia business consumed
the major portion of tho day In tho house
Among the bills passed was ono to de
crease tho cost of gas from 1.50 to $1 n
thousand. This was tho outcome of a long
light against the gas company. Tho con
sideration of tho postofflco appropriation
bill was continued, but no important
nmouuments wero adopted.

Hpeelnl to Kvr.Niso Hr.itAi.ii.
1'ottsvili.r, March 10. The trial of Isaac
Itcndlgo, Charles Uemllgo and Frank Adamt,
charged with thu murder of lienjaniiii I'.
.elilcrs, a farmer of Juniata county, came to
a sudden termination boforo Judge Albright
at this placo this afternoon and resulted in
tho dlschargo of two of tho accused nnd a
eoniparltively light sentenco for the third.
Tho trial commenced yesterday morning
and was vigorously pressed and fought by
tho respective counsel, but tho Common
wealth failed to mako out tho caso it ex
pected. After tiio prosecution closed counsel
for tho defenso moved for nn acquittal on thu
ground that murdor had not been proved.
Judgo Albright instructed the jury to bring
in a verdict of not guilty as to Isaac
nnd Cliailes Ilendigo and as to Adams
a verdict of guilty of assault and
battery was rendered. Adams was at onro
called to tho bar and a sentence of ono year's
imprisonment, $300 fine and tho costs was
imposed upon him.
Zeidcrs died at Kciner City, Porter town
ship, on January itli from a blow on tho
head inflicted by a club or stono used, it was
alleged, ny tno accused men.
Another caso ended to-day was that of
thief of Police Thomas Tosh and Lieuten
ant Thomas Leo, of Shenandoah, against
Andrew Kosar and Hunt Switkiwsky for
interfering with polico in dlschargo of their
initios aud assaulting Chief of Polico Tosh.
Tho jury went out at noon and after recess
brought in a verdict of guilty on all counts as
indicted.
It is quite likely tho sentenco of tho court
will bo a sovoro ono. Tho testimony showed
that tho two men prevented tho nolico from
arresting a woman who was charged bv
nciguuor with assault and battery and while
tno men wero boing taken to thu lockuit to
await trial for interfering with tho polico
they turned upon Chief Tosh and in tho
strugglo lie foil and sustained an injury to
Ills right hip that confined him to bed fur
several days. Tho affair occurred on tho
night boforo tho recent election in Sheiian
