Wahinton, Fob. 0. Tho contro
versy in tlio senate ovoi the voto upon
tho various resolutions Interpretative
of tho peace treaty took an aouto turn
late today. Tho opposition to a voto
first came from the friends of the
treaty, who held to tlio theory that it
could bo ratified without compromise.
Tlioso who apparently wore then will
ing that a voto should bo taken today
held an opposite view, and absolutely
refuse to agree to a time foi taking a
voto.
Tho contost occurred in tho execu

n quarter after C o'clock. The next
hour and n qiiator was spent in a vain
endeavor on one side to got an agree
ment to a dato for a voto upon the
resolutions, and on tho other in a muro
successful effort to bring the day's ses
sion to n oloeo without allowing any
thing to bo accomplished iti that di
rection. After a general dehato on tho subject
tho sonnto adjourned.

Addison G. Foster, of Tncomn, who
received 68 votes in tho ltopublicari
caucus held Tuesday evening, was at
12 o'clock Wednesday elected to repre
sent tho stato of Washington at the na
tional capital.
The nomination of Foster in tho call
ous Tuesday night was brought about
by the Wilson following coming over
to Foster Into in tho uitornoon, Thoy
signed an agreement to suppoit him in
tlio caucus. To his intimate friends,
Wilson stated that ho had expected
support from various sections of tho
stato that did not come to him, and
that although ho had prom i red from
day to dny that ho would make a bet
ter showing, ho had to admit that ho
could not bring to him support that ho
had counted upon. It was then ngre-id
that his men should bo released. There
upon tho Foster managers opened ne
gotiations to tako Wilson's men into
camp, which they did veiy gracefully.
HON. ADIMEOX O. FOSTER.
Whon Speaker Gnio, of tho house of
representatives, called tho caucus to
ordor, Senator Wilshiro, of Scattlo,
ropioaonting tho united King county
and Ankeny forces, stated that tho ob
ject of tho caucus call, under which
they were operating was signed with
tho understanding that the caucus, as a
whole, was to solcct a man for senator,
and that it was unfair for any part of
tho members to organizo within tho
caucus nnd decido upon tho man to bo
solected. Tills statement waB received
with indulgent smiles by tho Fostor
men. At tho conclusion of tho Wil
shiro statement, tho Ankeny men, with
tlio exception of Gobo, of Walla Walla,
Ankeny's homo bolted.

Theso woro tho only public ofllccs ho

engaged in tlio grain, fuel nnd real cs
tato business. In 1873 ho moved to
St. Paul to ougago in tho luuibor and

Griggs, now at Taooma. At St. Paul
ho formed tho acquaintance and friend
ship of Sonator C. K. Davis, Senator
Knuto Nolson and other prominont Re

always beon successful in business nnd
equally successful whonovor hoongaged
in politics.

of Washington. Ilia company is uIbo
ongagod in tlio shipping business, send
ing cargoes, principally of lumber, to
all parts of tho world.
Foitftr on Nutlonul laiues.
Regarding li is position on national
issuos, Mr. Foster says:
"I favor what is commonly torniod
tho expansion policy. Under a busi-noss-llko
arrangement I favor tlio build
ing of tho Nicaragua canal. I am for
sound monoy nnd n thorough business
man's administration of our publio
affairs. I favor an opon river polioy
for tho Columbia and aa n conernl
I pioposition favor river and harbor im
Iprovomonts of all kinds. In a word, I
doslro to soo tho possibilities of tho
Pnoiflo const, pnrtioulnrly of my own
stnto, realized, nnd I shall do nil in my
powor to ndvnnoo tho material wolfaro
of Washington."

A. W. IJash, who was formorly col
loctoi of customs on Pugot sound, waa
tho original promoter in China, of what

Item of Onnnrnl Intel-nut Oleaned
From the Thriving I'ncUlo
KllltOD.
liitllroml Kxtftmlnn.
Consldorulo excitement provaiis from
Lakoviow, Lake county, Oregon, all
j along tho lino to Iteno, Nov., owing to
I tho recent nutlionticated roport of tho
j extension of tho Nevada & California
I railroad from Amedu, Cai., north. Tho
I news of tho purchase of ovei 0,000 tons
, of steel rails in Now York by tho own
, ors of this road was sent out last week,
'and tho material will bo shipped im
mediately to Amedu, preparatory to
beginning of extension work in tho
spring. Tins is a nnrrow-guago road
now terminating at Amedu, and it is
concluded that tho next terminus will
bo Van Loans, 05 miles north, and
nearly crossing over the great Mada
lino plains. It will plnco Lakoviow
within 105 miles of rnilroad trnnapor
tation, and will mako a considcrablo
difference in stock shipping, freighting
and passengor travel. Tho objeot of
tho proposed extension is to head off
tho Southern Pacific Company, which
is now extending its lino from Upton
through tho great McOloud timbor bolt
to Fall Iliver.
Speedy Mall Carrier!.
All records of ice travel on tho Yu
kon have been broken by tho recent feat
of the mounted police of the Northwest
tenitory in bringing a big shipment
of mail from Dawson to Skagway in
nino days and 10 hours. The mail
left DawEon on the morning of.January
15 and was in Skagway before noon on
January 31. Tho record was mado by
tho Canadian officials, it is said, to
show that they could greatly reduco
the tirno being mado by tho United
States mail contractors.
Ill Sale or Wheat.
With the sale of about 500,000 bush-
! els of wheat on a basis of 50 cents for
No. 1 club, net, to tho farmers, tho
wheat market has taken on a quieter
tono at Pendleton, Or., and no sales
aro being recorded. Tiio distribution
of $250,000 of ready money in this com
munity lias given considerable impetus
to ietail business, which had becomo
fcomewlmt stagnant fiom the failure of
tho producers to realize either on wheat
or wool.
Schooner Sander Libeled.
The schooner Fred E. Sander, at tho
Tacoma mill loading lumber for Vallojo
Junction, has been libeled by James
Gillespie, formerly a cook on her, for
$318. The suit was brought while tbo
ship was on the lower Sound. Tho
case will be heard in Seattle. Since
coming to Tacoma the captain and all
of tho crow who were in her before,
with the exception of a Mexican, who
speaks no English, havo loft her.

A Girl Attacked.
On Sunday, an unknown man at
tacked tho 14-year-olddaughter of O. I.
Morris, of Tumor, Or., while she was
in a stubble field, rounding up cows.
Tiio man jumped from behind a olump
of brush, threw the girl on the ground,
took off one of her shoes and ordered
her to skip. Mr. Morris heard tho
Ecreams of his daughter, and ran to her
rescue, but the assailant w?s nowhoro

Ko Hlril ItecelTed.
The steamship City of Columbia was
put up for salo at San Francisco at tho
upset prico of $32,000. There was no
purchaser. The police department will
now indorse the petition of the seamen
of the Columbia that tho vessel be put
up for as muoh as she will bring. Tho
sailors of tho vessel are really in a very
bad shape. Most of them have not a
cent, and havo not possessed a dollar
in weeks.
Overhauling n Nail riant.
Tho roport published in tho Port
Townsend Loader a few days ago to
the effect that tho nail works plant
was being wrecked for tho purpose of
shipping tho machinery, olsowhero, was
n mistake. It originated from tho fact
tbnt several workmon woro busily on

When tho plant will resume work has
not been .dofinitoly settled.
