EFFECT OF A VETO
ImpossiMe for Bland. to Me His
Bill Passed Over It
CANNOT COMMAND ENOUGH VOTES
Such, a Motion Would Be Nothing
More Than a Protest Against;. -Cleveland's
Act'ion.
Washixgtos, March 26. Representa
- tive Bland has consulted his eilver asso
ciates of the house au to the chances for
passing the silver seigniorage bill over a
veto. He found most of the men who
had voted for the bill ready to endorse
it again, even against a , veto. Whether
be will make the move or not is not yet
certain, for the most radical friends of
the bill recognize that the necessary two
thirds vote to 'overcome the veto could
not be secured in the hou.se, and without
.this the move -could be nothing more
than a protest.! The vote on the passage
of the bill was nyes 1G8, noes 129, and
not voting 56. This aye vote was se
cured only after a protracted p ruggle,
. during which the house was w :i iiout a
quorum much of the time. It is be
lieved to represent almost the full
strength of the bill. ' .
Those senators who were most favora
ble to the passage of the Bland seignior
age bill look for nothing but a veto mes
sage when the 'president is prepared to
act upon the bill which ia now before
him. Senator Pugh of ' Alabama said
today :
"I am convinced that the president
will assign as his reason for vetoing the
- bill its ungrammatical construction and
. the ambiguity that is found in it. He
will also oppose that part of the measure
which provides for the issuance of certi
ficates against toe bullion before it is
coined. . I also, believe that he will tell
' congress that he would not disapprove
a bill that provided for the coinage of
the seigniorage pure and simple, . and
untrammeled by a provision regarding
the issue of notes.' Such a bill, I am
confident, can be speedily passed by
both houses and will become a law." '
COXEV'S ARMY.
Cooking;
on Gasolene Stoves In the Icy
Blasts of Winter.
Canton, O., March 26. Twenty-five
wives and daughters of the people's
party men, who' were expected, did not
appear at Coxey's camp this morning on
account of the bad weather, and the
men had to hustle victuals for them
selves. It was a sort of a Valley Forge
encampment, and the men suffered
severely in the icy blasts. Much diffi
culty was . experienced with the cooking
arrangements, but gasoline stones were
finally rigged up and a meal, consisting
of boiled ham, bread, potatoes, beans
and the like, furnished enough nourish
ment for all. About two-thirds of the
army were allowed to sleep in the city
prison last night. Many this morning
complained about Coxey and Brown
lodging at a hotel, instead of taking pot

A squad of about fifty from Stark Sid
ing, a rendezvous for tramps, was added
to Coxey's army this morning. It is!
said Coxey has been given till the 28th
to settle an indebtedness of $24,000, and
is much worried over thp matter: A
number of populists have issued a circu
lar calling for contributions to help him
lift the mortgages. So far the responses
amount to $4350. The commonweal
army took up the line of march shortly
after noon 200 strong, and expect to ar
rive at Louisville, the next stopping
place, at 4 p. m.
An Interview TVltfi Mello.
New Yobk, March 25. The Herald's
Montevideo correspondent reports an in
terview with Admiral Mello, in which
the latter is quoted as follows :
"If was not at all surprised at the fiasco
in Rio bay. I believed the surrender of
the fleet was inevitable ajter the inter
ference of Admiral Benham, of the
United States navy, in protecting vessels
landing ' cargoes at the- wharves. Da
Gama reached his decision to surrender
the fleet without a fight, after he had
made a desperate attempt to land his
forces at Nictheroy. In this attempt Da
Gama lost one-fourth of his men and
was himself seriously - wounded. He
afterwards dispatched the Aquidaban to
the south loaded with all the portable
munitions of war he. possessed which
were of , value. He also sent away all
available marines. He thus left himself
without power or food, and his supply
of water was cut off. He was unable to
continue operations, and did not have a
ship which could have crossed the . bar
under the fire of Forts Santa Cruz and
Lage. In this condition he decided to
spike all the guns id Fort yillegagnon
and on Cobras island and put out of act
ion all the guns on the ships. He then
took refuge with his officers and the
marines who remained on foreign war
ships, and the surrender without a fight
was inevitable."
Sensation In the Heath Trial. '
Fresno, Cal., March 26. A sensation
in the Heath, trial this morning was
caused by the testimony of Mrs. Cora
Palmer, who 'on the night of Mc-
Whirter's murder was taking her hus
band to town to take the1 2:30 train
She passed a buggy containing Reel
Terry, city attorney. A piece of burning
cloth had been thrown out of the buggy
which was setting fire to the grass by
the roadside. She stamped out the fire
and picked .up the partially consumed
cloth, which proved to be a black cloth
mask and a handkerchief bearing the
name of R.- S. Heath. The handker
chief was given in testimony. Mrs.
Palmer Is dying from consumption, and
had to be brought to court on a bed.
Her testimony made a profound impres
sion. Heath was visibly affected.
Killed by Bis. Daughter and Wife
Rome, Ga., March 26. G. F. Willis
was killed last ' week by his daughter
Lillian and his wife. The news of the
tragedy did not leak out for several days
until a son Francis, aged 11, told it to
neighbors. The daughter testified that
her father was ' choking her mother
when she cut his throat with a razor and
then brained him with an -ax. The jury
after being out some time rendered
verdict ot not guilty.
Have Settled Their Troubles.
Omaha, March 26. The. Union Paci
fic telegraphers have compromised with
the officials of the road. They talked
the matter out with Superintendent
Korty, and' bis recommendation was
submitted to President Clark, .who ap
proved , it. The exact terms are not
known, but the men claim a big victory,
securing all the concessions demanded.
Utility of the Cycle.
vve nave au seen men. run lor a'
train," said a traveler; "the other day
I saw a man make a break for one on a
bicycle. We had halted at a station
from which a straight, level road ran
back at a right angle to the railroad
At a considerable distance up that road
we saw a man coming on a bicycle. A
man afoot couldn't have got anywhere
near us -from that distance, and it
didn't seem as though the man on the
wheel could get within rods of us, but
he came down tne street whizzing-.
When he had got about half the dis
tance the conductor gave the signal to
start, and tne engineer sounded the
whistle and started the train. It was
astonishing how fast the man on the
wheel was coming now. There was a
broad level space around the station.
The bicyclist swept over this in a great
curve that landed him' alongside the
baggage car. Dismounting1, he lifted
his wheel up to the waiting hands of
tne baggagemaster; a fraction of
second later the steps -of the first pas
senger car came along and the bicyclist
stepped aboard.'a winner."

Collector Blackman has appointed
Mr. Geo. Herbert storekeeper at Grants.
The appointment gives general satisfac

Representative Geary, of California,
framer of the. .Chinese registration act,
causes some surprise by coming out in
approval of the new Chinese treaty. - He
does not agree with those who have ar
gued that it amounts to an abrogation
of the Geary law, but looks upon it
rather as a recognition of the registra
tion principle, which is the feature of
the law that bears his name.
ne biggest land grant' claim ever
made in this country is now before the
United States court of ' private land
claims at Santa Fe. It is known as the
Peralta grant, and is for 12,900,000 acres
of land in New Mexico and Arizona.
A man named Reavis claims the tract.

originally a grant from a Spanish king.
The copper mines at Clifton and Globe,
-the most valuable in the Southwest, and
the gold districts of Pinos Altos, Car
lisle, Mogella, Cooney and Silver creek
are also covered by the grant. If it
should be confirmed, it would make the
claimants the largest land-owners in the
United States, and at the same time the
wealthiest company in the country.
