2r THE MOENING OREGOITCAN, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER S, 1902. TO SHE TELLER Colorado Senate tylay Be Deadlocked. DEMOCRATS, IN CAUCUS Committee Is Named to Man age War to the Knife. LEGISLATORS CALLED TO MEET Purpose Is to Bind Them to Check Efforts of Repnhllcans to Cap tare Majority Vote on Joint Ballot. Senator Henry Moore Teller was elect ed to the United States Senate from Colorado on the admission of that state, and took his Eeat December 4, 1876. He drew the term ending March 3, 1S77, and was re-elected December 11. 1S77. for the full term. He served until April 17. 1882. when he resigned to en ter the Cabinet of President Arthur as Secretary of the Interior, and served until March 3, 1SS5. He was re-elected to the Senate in 18S5, and has been similarly honored twice since. He was a Republican until 1806. when he left the party on the silver issue. CENTER, Nov. 7. At a caucus today of a number of Democratic members of the new Legislature, it was decided that if the Republicans take revolutionary tac tics to unseat Teller men In the House, the Senate, which Is strongly Democrat ic, shall not meet in joint session with the. House, and shall deadlock the Legis lature, making Impossible the election of a successor to Senator Teller. A commit tee of members of the Senate and five from the House was appointed to com bat the efforts of the Republicans to con trol the Legislature by undue mems. Tho committee fs composed of Senators Fran cis Graves, John A. Rush and William H. Adams, all hold-overs, and Representatives-elect Belford. Moler, Stubbs, Mur to, Paul and German. The committee will at once call a joint caucus of Democratic House and Senite members from all over the state, with the idea of binding them in an agreement to check the efforts of the Republicans to capture a majority vote on joint ballot. This meeting will be held Tuesday at 2 P. M. The caucus sent word to all the Democratic candidates for the Senate who were defeated by a close margin to prepare their papers for contests and se cure evidence of fraud upon which to base their actions. The caucus" charged the Republicans with being revolutionary in their early attempt to unseat the Arap ahoe members in the House. "If right and justice cannot prevail," the Senate can also act revolutionary," de clared J. C. Stubbs. "The Democrats are strong enough In that branch to prevent the House from doing anything. In fact, it can adjourn the Legislature, and can very easily prevent a joint session of any proposition. Practically complete returns have now been received from every county In the state and they snow that the Legislature will stand on joint ballot, according ta the face of the returns: Democrats, 54; Republicans, 46. This is a gain of one Democrat from estimates heretofore made. The change is in Float, Repre sentative from Fremont and Chaffee Counties. Late returns from Chaffee County show the election of the Demo cratlc candidate. The returns also show the election of Mrs. Grenfell. Dem., for Superintendent of Schools. The Indica tions are now that there will be contests against many members of the Legisla ture outside of Arapahoe County, and against au tnree oi tne memDers or jon gress shown to have been elected. It is impossible to secure any definite figures on any of the constitutional amendments submitted to the people, but it is conceded tnat tne Australasian wnd .rax amendment was defeated, while tb1 one creating the County and City of Denver was adopted. Should the Republican majority in tho House unseat the 15 Democrats elected In the Arapihoe districts, as proposed, the Legislature on joint ballot will stand: Republicans, 62; Democrats, 3S. NO HOPE FOR liANE. Ballots Thrown Out Were, for Him,' - but They Cnn't Be Coantctl. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7. Advices, irom various parts or the state show that several thousand ballots cast at Tues day's state election were thrown out by precinct officers because voters marked with a cross spaces on the ballot left vacant because of failure of political par ties to make nominations. This operates almost exclusively to the disadvantage of Lane, Democratic candidate for Governor, as he" received the Labor party vote, and it was that party which failed In many counties to nominate a full ticket. At the present stage of the count Par dec has a majority of only about 1700 votes, and it would therefore appear that Lane actually received more votes thin the successful candidate. This causes in tense regret in Democratic and Labor party ranks, as Lane was looked upon in his run as a .most remarkable perform ance in the state which gave McKinley 29.000 majority. v Gavin McNab ruefully remarked today "We had a majority of the votes, but they have a majority of the legal bal lots." The wrongly marked ballots are re jected under a ruling of the State Su preme Court, and there seems to be no redress. CRY OF "FRAUD" IN CHICAGO. Vote for Sheriff Greater' Than Num bcr of Bnllots Sent Out. CHICAGO, Nov. 7. The Record-Herald tomorrow will say that Daniel Healey, Republican candidate for Sheriff at the recent election,, claims he has been elected Sheriff, and that the count showing the election of Thomas Barrett by about 7000 plurality is false It is alleged that the total vote for Sheriff was in excess to the extent of over 3000 votes of the num ber of ballots Issued in the- county for the election. According to a report from the Board of Election Commissioners, between 284.000 and 2S3.000 ballots were issued at the polls, including' the number destroyed and those wrongly stamped. Figures are given on the total vote for Sheriff at 231,913. Where the difference comes in has given rise to the cry of fraud in the Interest of some candidate for Sheriff on tho ticket. Congressional Race Still in Doubt. BRISTOL, Tenn.. Nov. 7. The result of the election - in tlfe - Ninth Virginia Con gressional District is not known. Repre sentative Rhea, Dem., claims he has a majority of 233 over Slemp, Rep. There are three counties still to hear from.

He made a deal with Judge Henry C. Smith, of Helena, the leading candidate for the Republican nomination for Supreme Judge, to secure him the in dorsement of the two minor parties, but the Republican leaders discovered the fact tho night before the convention, and forced Smith's withdrawal from the con test. Then. Judge W. L. Hollowqy, of Bozeman,, was taken up and given the nomination. Rather to the perplexity of Carter Heinze caused the indorsement of Holloway by his two conventions. Hol- loway denied that he had sought or de sired the Heinze "nominations, but said that he could not refuse any votes that might he given him at the polls. Control of Newapnpers. This necessitated a change of tactics on the part of Carter. The Republican news papers the Montana Daily Record, of Helena, the Great Falls Leader and the Buttelnter-Mountain-ceased their attacks on Heinze and hardly discussed the Judge ship. They centered their attacks on Judge John M. Evans, the Democratic candidate for Congress, and on the Demo cratic officials in the various counties. They made a still hunt for the Legisla ture, for they were sure that enough Re publicans were anti-Helnze to turn down any of the acrobat's measures, with the aid of the Democratic members, and they. had no Senatorship at stake. But It is doubtful whether, even with the unsought support of the Heinze fac tions, the Republicans would not have won. Though Carter Is personall- unpop ular with many Republicans, -the party was practically -united. The open friend liness of President Roosevelt to labor unions had won over many workingmen who had hitherto adhered to the Demo crats, and the unions had been turned against Judge Evans by some spots on hi record as regards the employment of Chi nese labor. The owners of sheep arid cattle, who control the eastern counties, are almost to a man Republicans, for they ueslre to have the tariff on wool and hides continued. ThevG has been a large Immigration of farmers from the Middle West to the northern counties, and the majority of these are Republicans. What Did Heinze Win? Heinze is possessed of such cunning that it would not be safe to say that he has gained nothing by helping the Republl can party to win, but It Is not apparent on thesurface that he has done anything. It may be that his object has only been to convince both parties that neither- of them can win without his aid that he holds the balance of power in the voting strength of the state. Then he may seek to have the one wh'.ch is most complais ant pull his chestnuts out of the fire for him. There is a strange mixture of bus', ness In his politics. He has been usin; politics to enable him to win his law suits, hut his attempt two years ago to dictate his election to the Senate proves that he has also seme political ambition One assured result of the election is that It makes .the return of Carter to the United States Senate two years hence a practical certainty. Carter has been National figure cf the first class ever since he talked to death the river and harbor bill. The people of Montana claim for that speech much of the credit of male ing the irrigation law possible, by convlnc Ing the East that It must consider the wants of the West, or It would get no "pork" for itself. Having control of the Federal and county patronage, and of the Legislature, he will be in a good position to manage the party machine in such a vay as to ensure, the election of another Republican Legislature in 1901, and his own election to the Senate to succeed Paris Gibson. This Is the third time that he has carried an admitted Democratic state by taking advantage of factional quarrels among the Democrats. It would not be strang'e If, with the aid of the new immigration, he should swing Montana permanently Into the Republican column and sr-cure is long a tenure of his seat in the Senate as that njoycd by the veterans of the iew Lngland States.

Boston Police Again Begin to Be lieve Clnbman Innocent Startling TeHtlniony Vof a Woman. BOSTON, Nov. 7. In the developments of the day in the Mason case, which has puzzled the pdlice of Boston since Miss Clark A. Morton was struck down and killed- in "Waverly last Saturday, there are several striking details. No further evi dence, however, has been adduced which tends to incriminate in the" case 6f Alan Mason, the prominent clubman and member of a well-known family, who Is under arrest on the charge of murder. In fact, the police are inclined to the belief that Mason stands out clearer in the light of an innocent man because of the fail ure of Joseph Nemser, the "West End jeweler, to identify Mason as the man who had offered for sale Miss Morton s watch last Saturday night. Mason was brought out with other prisoners and COLORADO LEGISLATURE TO PREVENT SENATOR HENRY Nemser was told to pick him out. He se lected the wrong man. An important de tail in connection with the disposal of the watches was the establishment tonight that the signatures on the checks kept on file by the jeweler for the identifica tion of the person who offered him the watch were written by one and the same person. This confirms the story that the two women were murdered by tho same man. Anotehr late Incident was the ar rest on suspicion tonight at Watertown of a young mulatto. He was brought here, but Jeweler Nemser failed to iden tify him. The man was released. Governor Goes Over Groaiiil. So serlouo has the case become" that Governor Crane has interested himself and he looked over the scene of the mur der while on a visit today to Waverly. During the day the attention of Chlet Ware was called to a published interview between Nemser and reporters, in which Nemser states he was paid to stick to his story, and that a mulatto soia tne waicn. The Chief said: "That is perfectly outrageous. The story Is all bosh. Nemser waa' told he would be paid for closing up his shop and for going about with the officers to help them on the case. He will be reimbursed alno for what he gave for the two watches. He is a poor Jew and very much crcited, and he told me he was besieged by so many reporters that he did not know what he was saying or what he had said." Chief Ware's statement that Nemser hardly knew what he V.'as saying seema to have been borne out by the fact that he told the police positively today that the man who pawned the McPhee watch was a white man, and latex admitted that he might have been a colored man. in fact he rather thought he waa A simi- rlar change of opinion was noted in con nection with the man who, Nemser says, tried to pawn the Morton watch on Sat urday night. At first the pawnbroker was very positive it was a negro. Then he 6ld he wns of light complexion and might have been a mulatto. "Later he admitted he might have ben a Spaniard or an ( xtauan. Startling Testimony of Woman. The story that a strange negro was In Waverly Saturday was made Itnown by a woman who lives in Winchester, and who, at Porter's Station, Cambridge, on the- Fltchburg division of the Boston & Maine Railroad, saw a negro purchase a ticket for Waverly. State Detectives Hammond and Dexter went to Winchester tonight and, together with Chief of Po lice Mcintosh, Interviewed the woman, who is a nurae. Her name st present is withheld. She says that Saturday even ing she started for Weston and waited in the Cambridge Station for her train from 7:20 until S P. M. During this time she had an excellent opportunity of ob serving the actions of white men and a negro who were at the station, and she told the officers today she was po&itive she could identify the three men wherever she might see them. The two white men were looking at a photograph; then one of them said: "Well, we might as well buy a ticket." They purchaosd a single ticket for Waverly, and this ticket, the nurse says, she saw handed to the negro by one of the white men as they passed out of the station, although the white men and the negro had previously mani fested no sign of recognition. The negr took the same train that she did, and she saw- him alight at Waverly. This place's the negro' in Waverly at 8:13, or about three-quarters of an hour before the as sault upon Miss Morton was committed. The descriptions of the three men as given by the nurje are considered Im portant. That of the colored man agrees with the description of the negro who accompanied the man who pawned MIsa Morton's watch MondaV morning. An iron bar was found today at the edge of Handyside Pond, In Waverly, to which, it is said by some, the murderer of Sat urday night went to wash his hands. The bar Is two feet long and a little rusty. It was on the edge of the pond, and the drawing off of the water brought it to light. Woman Picks Ont Mason as the Man. During the afternoon a Mrs. Sayers, from Watertown. called at the Cambridge jail and to!d Sherhf Falrban she wanted to see Alan G. Mason, because she be lieved from the pictures which had ap peared In the newspapers that he was the man who ha'd- annoyed her last Summer In a library-room In this city. Mason again was placed In line with other in mates'of the jail, and with them was sub jected to a rigid scrutiny. -An in the case of Nemser's attempt at identification, Mrs. Sayero was allowed to give no sign or utter no. word In the presence of the men before her, but when she returned to the Sheriff s office from the jail she de - clared that the fourth man in line was the man who had annoyed her. "The fourth man was Mason. This, alleged Iden tification by Mrs. Sayera adds another feature to the case, as it recalls another "Jack the Slugger" case in which -John Soderquest was convicted of assault with intent to kill on Miss R. A Roquett on August 10-in the same library building referred to by Mrs. Sayers. Soderquest was tho janitor of the building, and for the crime the man Is now serving a sen tence of seven years. The belief was ex pressed at the time that Soderquat plead ed guilty that he was responsible for the many mysterious assaults, on young women Jn Cambridge and Brookllne, who were beaten with some iron weappn just as Miss Mortonand MIas McPhee were. Stato police are now In vestigating the story . of Mrs. Sayers in comparison with the more Important de tails of the Soderquest affair. CORNISH MIXED ON HIS DATES.

News has been received here concerning the retreat of the revolutionary forces. It is to the effect that on the night of No vember 1 the revolutionists withdrew from their positions near La Victoria and San Mateo because they were without ammuni tion. The fact that the rebels lacked cart ridges caused a disagreement between General Matos and General Rolando, which was followed by hot words. Gen- eral'Rolando declared the shortage of am munition was tho fault of General Maton, and that if the success of the revolution was endangered by this condition General Matos alone wns responsible. He' said all was lost, and with his followers, about 3200 men, withdrew from the main body of the rebtls In the direction of Alta Gracla. It is reported that General Rolando pro claimed "El Mercho" Hernandez as tho leader of the revolution. President Castro, since he discovered the revolutionists only retreated because -of their absolute lack of ammunition, has caused them to be pursued day and night by government soldiers. The latest report issued by the government says that Gen era's Matos, Mendoza and Riera and their commands are fleeing in disorder in an ef fort to reach the mountainous districts. These Generals are supposed to be near Barreraj a point 12 miles from the Lake of Valencia. REnELS FORCED TO SURRENDER. Castro's Men Overtake Force of 4000 With Many Arms. LA VICTORIA.
