is no modification of the requirements of
the call. At the very earliest, there can
be no vote for senator for 12 days from
the time of the caucuses, and the oppo
sition to Senator Mitchell expresses its
entire confidence that he will not be
able to bold his support until that time,
46 members, caucus or uo caucus.
The 'fact is to bs considered that all
republicans who go with tomorrow
night's cacus are not necessarily Mitchell
men, and it does not follow that all will
accept its result without question. If
they do not, Mitchell is gone. He has
absolutely alienated Bourne republicans,
and all of his other contingent sources
of support (democrats and populists) by
his attitude in the speakership fight, to
say nothing of his ambiguous position
on the money question. They will not
come back. It is known further that
not less than three and probably more
of his supporters have served notice on
Senator Mitchell that they would a
bandon him the moment he received
either a democratic or a populist vote.
This, by the way, may :n part account
for Mitchell's recent repeated assurances
to gold-standard republicans onlv that
be stands on the republican platform
and will oppose tree silver. Altogether,
it is not too much to say that Mitchell's
fight is in a critical condition, and that
any one of the half dozen complications
that may arise between this time and
, January will defeat him.

tonight.
To Preserve the old Frigate ConHtHu
tlon. Washington, Jan. 13. The proposition
to preserve the old frigate Constitution
has received a fresh start in congress,
and it is possible that an appropriation
will be made to put the vessel in condi
tion and bring her to Washington to be
preserved as a naval relic. Charles
Francis Adams and other citizens of
Boston have just appealed to the senate
to make some provision to eave the frig
ate. Secretary Herbert has repeatedly
u'ged congress to to save this historic
ship.
"Of the old Revolutionary navy," he
said, "we still have two precious relics,
the Constitution and Hartford. The
Constitution, so glorious in the war of
1812, lies rotting at the Portsmouth
nary-yard. In my annual reports I
have recommended that a sufficient sum
of money be appropriated to repair and
insure her preservation, but my appeal
has been unheeded. I believe that this
generation of Americans should do its
duty and repair and band down the old
Constitution, with masts and spars still
standing, and enBign still flying, to the
generation that is to come.

Lower Legislative Honne Cannot Bluster
a Quorum.
Salem, Or., Jan. 13. The house was
called to order nt 10 o'clock by Speaker
Davis, and skirmishing immediately be
gan. The speaker directed the clerk to
call the roll, but Somers demanded n call
of the house, which is practically the
same thibg.
U'Ren wanted the floor to make an
explanation about the committee on
credentials, and Bilyeu iusisted on a
point of order that the proceedings were
out of order. The speaker- finally di
rected the clerk to proceed to call the
roll. The roll call showed twenty-nine
present. Bridges wanted yesterday's
journal read, but the motion was de
clared out of order, there being no
quorum.
At 11:20, after an hour of idleness,
U'Ren filed a report of the majority of
the committee on credentials. Thomas
called for its reading, and Bilyou asked
for a call of the house. Thirty-two
were present, which was declared no
quorum. Some confusion and hot talk
followed. Somers served a notice on
the opposition that the people of the
state would not much longer stand the
delay.
"We won't have it," he shouted.
"What do you mean?" cried U'Ren.
"Do you propose to capture this house
by force. Are you revolutionists?"
(hisses and cheers.)
"I'll tell you what we mean," replied
Somers. "We were sent here to do
business, and we proprose to do it."
Smith, Riddle, U'Ren and others then
engaged in a wordy controversy. Quiet
waB soon restored.
The house adjourned at noon till 2 p.
m., after a roll call, which showed only
thirty-four members present.
