JERRY SIMPSON FOR THE
SENATE
He "Hu* Abandoned His Campaign for Con-
-If res*. X
► Topeka, Kas., Oct. 24.—It is said that
Jerry Simpson has practically aban-
doned bis campaign for congress in the
seventh district, and is devoting his
entire attention to his candidacy for
United S at.es Senator to succeed Sen-
ator Perkins. Republicans claim that
Simpson’s defeat for congress is cer-
tain ancl that he has discovered that
his election is impossible. For nearly
two weeks he has been outside of his
district and his campaign is receiving
little or no attention at the hands of
his congressional committee. He is
occupying himself visiting legislative
district* in which both the People’s
Party and the Democratic candidate
are in the held for the legislature and
in each he has, it is alleged, endeav-
ored to secure the withdrawal of one or
th$ other of the candidates that the
^ppoeutyffln > the Republicans may be
united. A large portion of the Peo-
ple's Part, candidates for the legisla
ture have > '.ready been pledged for
Simpson loi the Senate in case of elec-
tion. Kansas is so districted for legis-
lative purposes that the state might
be carried by the Republicans by a
great majority and yet a majority of
the legislature be elected by the Peo-
ple’s Party. This was the case two
years ago and it is not impossible that
it will occur again.
Dcpew Talks.
Chicago, Oct. 24.—Chauncey M. De-
pew has submitted to be interviewed
on the political situation and this is
the result:
“Harrison will be elected. The thing
that gives me more confidence in Har-
rison’s election than any other is the
general apathy among the public. < len-
eral apathy helps the party in power,
It shows t he people db not want any
change. When you have a great ex-
citement it shows that the people are
excited aud want a change. The Amer-
ican people are peculiarly fond of leav-
ing well enough alone for a certain
period and then they want a change,
have somewhat im- just for the sake of a change. They
...v ... . don’t care whether they are worse off
or better, they want a change. That is
what put the Republican party out of
power aud brought in Mr. Cleveland.
Now they have had their change. They
have tried it over. They w jre not any
better off under Cleveland than they
were uuder Arthur, and they have been
been bet er off under Harrison than
they were under Cleveland. The
country has been more prosperous. Of
course, the Democrats say that is a
purely providential accident ’’
lOiijflisli Politics,
London, Oct. 24.—The political sea-
son is beginning in earnest. On Thurs-
day when a cabinet council will be
held, 8ir William Vernon Hareourt,
the chancellor of the exchequer was
installed in Downing street Saturday
and Mr. Gladstone will take up his
lesidence there tomorrow. Mr. John
Morley, chief secretary for Irelaud. is
ex pec ten to arrive in London from
Dublin on Wednesday. It was expect-
ed that Mr. Gladstone would spend a
portion of the winter abroad, but it
appears that he has abandoned his
idea of leaving England, because he an-
ticipated trouble in drafting the home
rule bill, all the parliamentary
draftsmen in the various departments
having been instructed to remain in
constant attendance at the offices. This
fact points to the drafting of a compre-
hensive scheme of domestic legisla-
tion.

Another California Scandal.
San Franci5(A), Oct. 24.—Over the
will of millionare Thomas Bell, which
was filed yesterday, a contest is certain
that may lead to sensational develop-
ments. Bell’s estate amounts to 82,-
000 000, and in a will executed last
February he left all this to his wife
and six children, but the property can-
not be distributed for fourteen years,
until the youngest child comes of age.
Meanwhile the widow will get such an
allowance as the executors thiuk neces-
sary. The widow is said not to fancy
this arrangement as she wished to
handle the estate, and Bell’s nephew
who managed hist large ranch in Santa
Barbara, expected to be remembered.
He will make a contest on the ground
that the will was'Uiot executed by Mr.
Bell, aud that he is the ouly legal heir
as the six children named in the will
are not Bell’s children. This latter
ground will open up a scan-
dal of which the public had
a glimpse during the great Sharon
trial. Sharon and Bell were chums
until Bell went, to live with a woman
whose husband was in the insane
asylum. Bell was eager to have a
family, though jhe washover fifty, so he
promised this woman 850,000 for every
child which was born to her. When
the two children had been born, the
insane husband' died aud Bell then
married her. Hfenad six children by
this woman. It was a remark made by
Sharon in regard to the paternity of
these children that led to a bitter
quarrel between Bell and Sharon Bell
found his retenge in furnishing Sarah
Althea with the money for carrying on
her divorce suit. For the last five
years Bell and his wife spent little
time together, she is liviug on a ranch
in Sonoma:____
New York Capitalist*.
Eagle Pass, Tex., Oct. 24.—A distin-
guished party oftrailroad officials of the
Monterey and Mexican Gulf, arrived
here yesterday from the south. They
include General Geronimo Trevino,
President of the Company. General
Manager Robertson.Enutirio 1 >e Lagtr-
za, Vice-president and General attor-
ney: and J. F. Flynn, auditor. They
came to meet a nurhber of New\ork
capitalists who arrived here iu the
evening, en route to Monterey. The
party left for that city immediately.
It is said that tlie New York capatalists
are to make an inspection of the Monte-
rey & Gulf, which is preparing to ex-
tend westwardly from Trevino Junc-
tion to the Seirra Mojadas.
Killed toy,an Electric Car.
Denver, Oct. 24.—This evening Sam
Roden, a man of 53 years, who has
been working in a livery stable here,
was run over aud killed by an elec trie
car. lie made an attempt to pass in
front of the car, but struck a rail and
fell uuder the wheels.
The German Army.
Berlin, Oct. 24 —Official details of
the new army bill were published to-
day. The peace effective army from
October 1, 1893 to March 31, 181)5, is
fixed at 492,068 men. The service of
the infantry is generally reduced to
two years The adoption of this
measure is necessary because the form-
er military preponderance of Germany
has gone. The war strength of France
is placed at 4,053,000 and of Russia at
4,550,000. When the reorganization
under the bill is completed the German
army will have attained a strength of
1,400,000 where,as Fiance, will uot be
able to exceed her present, strength.
The bill retains the power of the mil-
itary authorities to keep men in the
ranks until they have completed their
third year of service. This will be
done as a punishment for offenses under
the military code.
