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

TOM CARTER UP.
(Continued from First Page.)
parties. 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.

MASON'S CONNECTION WITH MUR
DER SOMEWHAT DISPROVED.
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

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

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.

REBEL GENERALS FALL OUT
Rolando Blames Mutos for Having to
Retreat From La Victoria.
LA VICTORIA, Venezuela, Nov. 7.
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. Venezuela, Nov. 7. It Is
difficult to understand the apparent sud
den amV complete collapse of the revolu
tionary movement." But a few days ago
the rebels seemed to be upon the eve of
victory, while today their cause seems to
be absolutely lest. President Castro, hav
ing sent his men in all directions to cut off
the retreat of the enemy, left here today
for Caracas. The government soldlera
who-nre following tho rebels .scored their,
first succosb this morning by the capture
of General Ramon Luisi. who was making
his way in the direction of Alta Gracla
with 300,000 rounds of ammunition and -JCfiO
men to reinforce the revolutionists. From
here President Castro will go to Los Ques
tos, which point was abandoned by the
rebels. From Los Teques the President
will go by rail to Caracas, arriving there
Sunday morning. He will then take his
place at the head of the government.
Telegraphic communication between La
Victoria and Caracas has been restored.
Guerrillas In the service of the govern
ment have brought to President Castro
certain records belonging to members of
General Matos' personal staff, as well as
the General's personal correspondence.
The contents of these papers give evidence
of the critical situation of the leaders of
the revolution.
URIBE-URIBE MUST DIE.
Colombian Rcvolntlonnry Lender
Sentenced to Death.
SAN JOSH, Costa Rica. Nov. 7. General
Santos, military director of the Colombian
revolution, who has been here for some
time past, will not attend the proposed
peace conference between, representatives
of the Colombian revolutionists and the
Colomblan government which is to be held
on board the United States battle-ship
Wisconsin in Panama harbor. Advices
