Mrs. Irwin Too Hysterical to Give Her Testimony. THE GENERAL OPINION Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. COX'S STATION. Charles county, Md., August 5.-The horrible murder of James Irwin Sunday night has thoroughly aroused the whole county. and about the vicinity of Allen's Fresh the scare is almost equal to that which so excited the people of Washington during the operations of "Jack the Slasher" not very long ago. Even the strong men are badly frightened, and the place is completely demoralized. Although the weather has been warm since the mur- der was committed, at almost every house about Allen's Fresh windows Old doors have been closed at night, and at several houses the windows have been securely Seene of the Tragedy. nailed, so that they are not even open dur- ing the day time. Monday night while the body of the murdered man was still in the house and his widow sas only a few hun- dred feet away, under guard and medical treatment, the men who found occasion to go on the road were for the most part heavily armed. Several of them volunteer- ed-to remain with the body over night, and the house was well protected, for all the watchers were .prepared for another visit from the murderer. The affair has com- pletelyo unnerved them. This is probably because the village has been such a quiet place, ard nothing of this kind had ever happened before within recollection of the present inhabitants. A ad Sceae. Yesterday morning the scene In the vil- lage was a sad one. The body of the mur- dered man lay in a coffn in the front room of the home tiat had been an unhappy one for a long time, and during her lucid In- tervals the wife could look from the house of "Dick" Swann,. where she was under treatment, and see the window of the room in which the terrible deed had been com- noitted. But the sight did not affect her. The only thing that seemed to give her the slightest trouble was mention. of the let- ters that had passed between her and Mat- thews, and then she never failed to become hysterical. Soon after breakfast time the aged parents of the dead man went fro'n their home to take a last look at their boy, who had been so foully dealt with. Their grief could not be concealed, and the mother was not able to stand the ordeal. She was obliged to return home, and is now almost frantic. With the exception of the discolored face, the dead man presented a fairly good ap- pearance. On the wall of the little room in which the body lay hung a large crayon portrait of the wife who is now suspected of complIlty in the crime, while near it was a framed cabinet photograph of the Hebrew peddler with whom she eloped about five years ago. Why Jim Irwin ever allowed that picture to remain there no one of the mourners could understand. The man had caused Jim considerable trou- ble by taking his wife over In Virginia and keeping her there for more than a month, but then Jim loved her and was always willing to forgive her wrongs. There had been a child born to them then, and Jim thought it was his duty to sacrifice his own feelings in order that things might be set right, and that Nellie should be brought up to make a good woman and not have a blighted life. Had Pleaded With His Wife. It Is known that he had pleaded with his wife, Emma, to give up her suspected re- lations with George Matthews. He knew all about the letters, for his brother had In- tercepted several of them, and one of these love epistles from his former partner was delivered to Jim himself. This wasn not many days ago. His wife had been in the habit of sending Nellie to the post office each day at mall time, but on this occasion Pcstmaster Tippett overlooked Mrs. Ir- win's letter when Nellie ,called, and later on he asked the husband to take it home. He did take It.. but not to his home. In- stead, he took it 0over te his father's home, and there had his aged father decipher the ccntentu of the letter, which contained many endearing terms. If Jim said any- thing to his wife about this letter the neighbors heard nothing of it. It Is be- lieved, however, that very little, if any- thing, was said, and certainly there was no trouble about it, for this would certainly have been heard. The Genesal Belief. It is believed here that the taking out of the way of the husband and father was planned long ago, soon after the death of the child George, to whom Mrs. Irwin re- ferred as George Matthews' boy in the let- ter to him, in which she said, "Baby George sends kiss to papa." George was only two or three years old when he died in April last, and soon after his little body was laid at rest in the burying groped at the Newport Catholic Church the wife ad- vised her husband that it might be well for him to attend to his religious duties and get back in his church. He had had so much trouble about his wife and Matthews that he had neglected his religious duties for a long time. "I don't feel like going to my duties," hae said to his wife, "when this trouble is hanging over us." The poor man was thoroughly dishearten- ed, but knowing strict attention to church glatters would lessen his erhyburdens, he went and consulted Father W .epas- tor of the Newport Church, To his pastor he related the story of his troblarz when the umnisist had conseoed -" as THE- OFFICIAL 30.

It Is now believed that the wife knew of what was to comer and that was why she Insisted on his returning to church and making preparations for the hereafter, although she was not so consid- erate of her own spiritual welfare. The Premises Inspected. Yesterday the premises were fully in- spected by State's Attorney Posey and some of the members of the coroner's jury. On the head of the bed they found the stains of blood and several additional pieces of the skull were found. The blood-saturated pillow, which had been put out in the yard with the bedding, had been removed across the road and deposited near the water's edge. "Dick" Swann's home, where Mrs. Irwin was confined. *as also visited, and it took but a glance at her to see that she had not sufficiently improved to be removed to Undertaker Robey's, near Cox's station, where the inquest was to&be resumed. A New Phase of the Case. In addition to the terrible gunshot wound tl.ere was apparently a cut in the skull, which the doctors thought might possibly have been inflicted with a hatchet. This rew phase of the case caused the belief that two persons, instead of one, might have taken part in the actual killing, and a search Is to be instituted for a blood- stained hatchet, as well as a gun. Mrs. Irwin's night gown, which is playing an important part in the Investigation, is still in the hands of the authorities, and an ef- fort is being made now to account for the presence of so little blood on the garment. when she claims she was in bed with the murdered man at the time the crime was committed and knew nothing of what had taken place until she heard a rapping or knocking sound. If she actually took part in the killing, as some people here believe she did, then the two blood stains on the garment might be easily accounted for, but it is not generally believed that she was even In the room when the fatal shot was fired, and the blow probably inflicted. Undertaker Robey and Justice Wills oc- cupy the same little building, about a mile from the station, and here the jury as- sembled at noon and heard the statement of the prisoner, George Matthews, as stated e 1)--- e Jim Irwin. In yesterday's dispatches. The building is a one-story frame structure, and situated at the fork in the road, one road feading here and the other toward Allen's Fresh. Fully 200 men had congregated in the yard and beneath the shade trees on the road, all anxious to get a look at George Mat- thews, and more especially at Jim Irwin's wife, for they expected she would be pres- ent at the hearing. Matthewes the Iuspected Murderer. When the prisoner, Matthews, arrived from the La Plata. jail in charge of Sheriff Wade and his deputies he was securely handcuffed, and the ight of the crowd gave him a thorough scare. So badly was he frightened that he reeled as he was en- tering the gateway and came near falling. He is by no means a bad looking man and there Is an indescribable attractiveness about him which accounts for his having been able to win the affections of the wife of Jim Irwin. Matthews is not a large man and having followed the water so long his complexion is rather dark, but he has rosy cheeks. Although the excitement had kept him up he was probably weak, because he had taken no nourishment since his ar- rest Monday morning. Neither had Mrs. Irwin. She even refused ice when the doc- tor wanted her to take it. Having passed through the crowd suc- cessfully the frightened man was given a seat on a box in the office in plain view of a pile of coffins and other articles so neces- sary at funerals. In the words of one of the jurors, "He was sweating blood." In this little room the jurors were seated, and gathered about them were officers of the county and several newspaper men. The crowd outside clamored for admission but the sheriff's deputies cleared the yr anad drove the people to the opposite side of the road. His Statemmeat, Under Oath. Then Matthews made his statement under cath. After admitting that he had been corresponding with Mrs. Irwin for some time, he maid he did so for the purpose of tantalising Jim, Sunday night, he said, he was out rowing. He went to meet a friend ujamed Alvin Hayden, but did not meet him. Hayden was some six or' seven miles distant, and he went to meet him for the pleasure of his eo~ny returning home, There was a squal on the river, and- he wrapped his oat about his oil coat instead of reversin't the order, and the con-~ WEATHER MAP. a. r rios tnhs -w8 r~.7t erantied: Suridn the past twh enty-for hoursDtdcksnvile, 1.2term; Swrf Coe"M ditio ofas t ein water. aeo Tempraturegh and condio oction of tra aT.:ea Fallsin theayprtre, 80; iond(i- tione 19; revng-reseri, te peate 8;Condition t noth onneor1.cn dition- at south connection, 4; distributing reservoir. temperature, 81, condition at Influent gate house, 20; effluent geate touse, 14.

Asked why he had not fastened the boat, he said that sometimes, when boatmen are in .a hurry, they do not stop to make their boats fast. He said, however, that he was not In a hurry. At this point States Attorney Posey turn- ed his questionir~g toward the question of a shotgun. The shot picked from the George Matthews. brain of the murdered man were mixed, and the gun wad wa. of newspaper, and some of those who were Interested in he investigation thought It had been made of a Piece of a Populist paper.

His own gushe had traded for a bicycle but he had borrowed one from Charles Goode for the purpose, he said, of protect- ing his crab box, but in reality he wanted it for his own protection.

POLL ON A TRAIN The republican congressional committee. as stated by Secretary Mercer in The Star yesterday, was not inclined to attach a great deal of significance to the democratic victory in the railroad town of Brunswick, Md., which was taken by the democrats as a straw indicating the direction of the po- litical wind at this time. The committee is more of that opinion today, and Is in receipt of a communication upon the subject. It is an editorial in the Baltimore News, and Is as follows: "One would suppose that there had been a terrific struggle between the adherents of the Rothschilds and Wall street bond-sharks on the one hand, and the unterrified cham- pions of the poor man's money and the Nebraska orator on the other. In point of fact, however, only 293 votes were polled out of a total voting population of about 600, which rather Indicates that most of the citizens of Brunswick thought they were simply electing a mayor and councilmen, and not helping specially to settle the finan- cial system of the country. Moreover, this 'republican stronghold gave the republican candidate for sheriff last fall a plurality of just 14 votes-234 against 220-although last fall was a tidal-wave year for the republi- cans, who carried Maryland for governor by nearly 19,000 plurality. Yesterday the dem- ocratic candidate for mayor polled 161 votes against 120 for his opponent. With these figures before them, the people of the United States will probably decide that Brunswick, Md., has done but a very little as yet toward the settlement of the presidential question." Mr. Dabeock Expected Friday. Chairman Babcock of the republican committee is expected to be at his desk by Friday, and will take up the business which he was forced to suspend tempora- rily on account of interesting political events In his own district. Vice Chair- man Apsley expects to leave about the middle of the morth for a six weeks' trip through the west, upon which he will be accompanied by Representative McCall of Ma sachusetts. It is Mr. Apaley's inten- tion to visit the principal republican head- quarters west of this city and to make per- sonal Inspections of the situation as repre- sented to the state central committees and the congressional committees of the several districts. In this way Mr. Apsley expects to gain much information of the real sit- ustion throughout the country, which will be of invaluagle aid to the congressional committee in its conduct of the campaign. Lively for the Clerical Force. While this was a dull day for news at the congressional committee headquarters on account of the absence of prominent callers and the lack of unusual information In the malls, it was a busy day for all hands around headquarteres, who find the work of the .committee Increasing in vol- ume day by day. The clerical force at the Normardie have all they can do to keep up with the demands upon them, and the employes of the docvment room around the corner on I street are just as busy in their own line of work. The committee has a suite of several rooms on the parlor floor of the Norman- die, but it Ir still crowded for accommoda- tions. Visitors to the committee headquar- ters receive pciite attention and are shown Into the waiting room, where Mr. Bailey, a courteous ycung man, ascertains their wants. It they want to see Vice Chairman Apsley they may find it a somewhat diffi- cult undertaking, because he is too busy to talk to everyLody who comes. The major- ity of the callers are seekers for employ- n'ent, too, and as the clerical force of the committee has long ago been made up, they do not receive a great deal of encour- agement. The newspaper men, who visit the com- mittee at all hours of the day, are wel- comed to Col. Fred. Schrader's room, and from there they get access to the vl:e chairman, who always has a word for the newspaper men. Circular to Colored Voters. -The republican congressional committee has received a circular from the West End McKinley Club of this city, addressed to the colored voters of the United States. It is issued by George W. Stewart, chair- man of the club, and exhorts the colored population to vote for the republicans, the circular concluding with this paragraph: "Beware of the silver craze, shun the Populists and stick to the old landmark." At Democratic Headquarters, At democratic headquarters, on 15th street, the caller upon entering the hall is confronted Immediately by a gateway guarded by a colored man. The rooms of Chairnman Faulkner and Secretary Gardner are upstairs, and the plain citizen has to run a gauntlet of satisfactory explana- tions as to his mission before he gets into this sanctum. Senator Faulkner Is always approachable to newspaper men, however, and the latter have no trouble in getting access to him. "The news from Minnesota today Indicates probability of a big democratic victory in November," said Senator Faulkner to a Star reporter this afternoon. "With the fusion which has been made between the democrats and the populists, and with the constantly increasing sentiment in favor of silver, I do not see how it will be possi- ble for the fusion ticket to fail to wipe out the republicans almost completely." Advice. from Minnesota state that the populist and democratic forces were com- bined at yesterday's convention, and a ticket for the state made up which will take in nearly every element of population. Ex-Congressman Lind, formerly a republi- can, was nominated for governor. He is a Scandinavian, and he is expected to con- trol the entire foreign vote of the state. Other foreign elements besides the Scandi- navians w ere also provided for in the ticket. The present republican lieutenant governo~r of the state has been nominated for Congress on a free silver ticket against McCleary, the gold republican, and a divi- sion has been made of the presidential electors between the populists and the dem-' ocrats. A Pennsylvania Predititon, Ex-Congressman Mutchier of the eighth Pennsylvania district was a caller at dem- ocratic headquarters today, and predidted a democratic silver majority of from 2,000 to 4,000 in that district. He said the dem- ocrats would gain several Congressmen through the state, as the silver sentiment was making great headway among the mniners and laborers. In this connection Senator Faulkner stated this afternoon that the committee's mail from Pennsylvania is twice as large as it was two weeks ago, and that it is all for free siver. He said the county committees are all in line for the ticket, and he looks for some pro- nounced gains in the state. One of the callers at democratic head- quarters today who had noticed Senator Faulkner's Interview in The Star yesterday, in which he stated that he feared a conflict b)etween the classes and the masses, told of an incident which occurred on the Cin- cinnati express on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad a few evenings ago.

Falkner of Montgomery was named as provisional member of the na- tional committee to attend the Indanapolis conference on the 7th instant. A committee of five was named to take steps to perfect an organisation throughout the state by naming a state committee. A recommendation was made to the state committee to bring about as soon as possi- ble conventions for the nomination of sound money democratic congressional candidates in every district.

Mrs. Irwin Too Hysterical to GiveHer Testimony.

THE GENERAL OPINION

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.COX'S STATION. Charles county, Md.,

August 5.-The horrible murder of JamesIrwin Sunday night has thoroughly arousedthe whole county. and about the vicinityof Allen's Fresh the scare is almost equalto that which so excited the people ofWashington during the operations of "Jackthe Slasher" not very long ago. Even thestrong men are badly frightened, and theplace is completely demoralized. Althoughthe weather has been warm since the mur-der was committed, at almost every houseabout Allen's Fresh windows Old doorshave been closed at night, and at severalhouses the windows have been securely

Seene of the Tragedy.nailed, so that they are not even open dur-ing the day time. Monday night while thebody of the murdered man was still in thehouse and his widow sas only a few hun-dred feet away, under guard and medicaltreatment, the men who found occasion togo on the road were for the most partheavily armed. Several of them volunteer-ed-to remain with the body over night, andthe house was well protected, for all thewatchers were .prepared for another visitfrom the murderer. The affair has com-pletelyo unnerved them. This is probablybecause the village has been such a quietplace, ard nothing of this kind had everhappened before within recollection of thepresent inhabitants.

A ad Sceae.Yesterday morning the scene In the vil-

lage was a sad one. The body of the mur-dered man lay in a coffn in the front roomof the home tiat had been an unhappy onefor a long time, and during her lucid In-tervals the wife could look from the houseof "Dick" Swann,. where she was undertreatment, and see the window of the roomin which the terrible deed had been com-noitted. But the sight did not affect her.The only thing that seemed to give her theslightest trouble was mention. of the let-ters that had passed between her and Mat-thews, and then she never failed to becomehysterical. Soon after breakfast time theaged parents of the dead man went fro'ntheir home to take a last look at their boy,who had been so foully dealt with. Theirgrief could not be concealed, and themother was not able to stand the ordeal.She was obliged to return home, and isnow almost frantic.With the exception of the discolored face,

the dead man presented a fairly good ap-pearance. On the wall of the little room inwhich the body lay hung a large crayonportrait of the wife who is now suspectedof complIlty in the crime, while near itwas a framed cabinet photograph of theHebrew peddler with whom she elopedabout five years ago. Why Jim Irwin everallowed that picture to remain there noone of the mourners could understand.The man had caused Jim considerable trou-ble by taking his wife over In Virginia andkeeping her there for more than a month,but then Jim loved her and was alwayswilling to forgive her wrongs. There hadbeen a child born to them then, and Jimthought it was his duty to sacrifice hisown feelings in order that things might beset right, and that Nellie should be broughtup to make a good woman and not have ablighted life.

Had Pleaded With His Wife.It Is known that he had pleaded with his

wife, Emma, to give up her suspected re-lations with George Matthews. He knewall about the letters, for his brother had In-tercepted several of them, and one of theselove epistles from his former partner wasdelivered to Jim himself. This wasn notmany days ago. His wife had been in thehabit of sending Nellie to the post officeeach day at mall time, but on this occasionPcstmaster Tippett overlooked Mrs. Ir-win's letter when Nellie ,called, and lateron he asked the husband to take it home.He did take It.. but not to his home. In-stead, he took it 0over te his father's home,and there had his aged father decipher theccntentu of the letter, which containedmany endearing terms. If Jim said any-thing to his wife about this letter theneighbors heard nothing of it. It Is be-lieved, however, that very little, if any-thing, was said, and certainly there was notrouble about it, for this would certainlyhave been heard.

The Genesal Belief.It is believed here that the taking out of

the way of the husband and father wasplanned long ago, soon after the death ofthe child George, to whom Mrs. Irwin re-ferred as George Matthews' boy in the let-ter to him, in which she said, "BabyGeorge sends kiss to papa." George wasonly two or three years old when he died inApril last, and soon after his little bodywas laid at rest in the burying groped atthe Newport Catholic Church the wife ad-vised her husband that it might be well forhim to attend to his religious duties andget back in his church. He had had so

much trouble about his wife and Matthewsthat he had neglected his religious dutiesfor a long time."I don't feel like going to my duties," haesaid to his wife, "when this trouble is

hanging over us."The poor man was thoroughly dishearten-

ed, but knowing strict attention to churchglatters would lessen his erhyburdens,he went and consulted Father W .epas-tor of the Newport Church, To his pastorhe related the story of his troblarzwhen the umnisist had conseoed -" as

It Is now believed that thewife knew of what was to comerand thatwas why she Insisted on his returning tochurch and making preparations for thehereafter, although she was not so consid-erate of her own spiritual welfare.

The Premises Inspected.Yesterday the premises were fully in-

spected by State's Attorney Posey and someof the members of the coroner's jury. Onthe head of the bed they found the stainsof blood and several additional pieces ofthe skull were found. The blood-saturatedpillow, which had been put out in the yardwith the bedding, had been removed acrossthe road and deposited near the water'sedge. "Dick" Swann's home, where Mrs.Irwin was confined. *as also visited, andit took but a glance at her to see that shehad not sufficiently improved to be removedto Undertaker Robey's, near Cox's station,where the inquest was to&be resumed.

tl.ere was apparently a cut in the skull,which the doctors thought might possiblyhave been inflicted with a hatchet. Thisrew phase of the case caused the beliefthat two persons, instead of one, mighthave taken part in the actual killing, anda search Is to be instituted for a blood-stained hatchet, as well as a gun. Mrs.Irwin's night gown, which is playing animportant part in the Investigation, is stillin the hands of the authorities, and an ef-fort is being made now to account for thepresence of so little blood on the garment.when she claims she was in bed with themurdered man at the time the crime wascommitted and knew nothing of what hadtaken place until she heard a rapping orknocking sound. If she actually took partin the killing, as some people here believeshe did, then the two blood stains on thegarment might be easily accounted for, butit is not generally believed that she waseven In the room when the fatal shot wasfired, and the blow probably inflicted.Undertaker Robey and Justice Wills oc-

cupy the same little building, about a milefrom the station, and here the jury as-sembled at noon and heard the statementof the prisoner, George Matthews, as stated

e 1)---

Jim Irwin.

In yesterday's dispatches. The building isa one-story frame structure, and situatedat the fork in the road, one road feadinghere and the other toward Allen's Fresh.Fully 200 men had congregated in the yardand beneath the shade trees on the road,all anxious to get a look at George Mat-thews, and more especially at Jim Irwin'swife, for they expected she would be pres-ent at the hearing.Matthewes the Iuspected Murderer.When the prisoner, Matthews, arrived

from the La Plata. jail in charge of SheriffWade and his deputies he was securelyhandcuffed, and the ight of the crowdgave him a thorough scare. So badly washe frightened that he reeled as he was en-tering the gateway and came near falling.He is by no means a bad looking man andthere Is an indescribable attractivenessabout him which accounts for his havingbeen able to win the affections of the wifeof Jim Irwin. Matthews is not a large manand having followed the water so long hiscomplexion is rather dark, but he has rosycheeks. Although the excitement had kepthim up he was probably weak, because hehad taken no nourishment since his ar-rest Monday morning. Neither had Mrs.Irwin. She even refused ice when the doc-tor wanted her to take it.Having passed through the crowd suc-

cessfully the frightened man was given aseat on a box in the office in plain view ofa pile of coffins and other articles so neces-sary at funerals. In the words of one ofthe jurors, "He was sweating blood."In this little room the jurors were seated,and gathered about them were officers of

the county and several newspaper men.The crowd outside clamored for admissionbut the sheriff's deputies cleared the yranad drove the people to the opposite sideof the road.

His Statemmeat, Under Oath.Then Matthews made his statement under

cath. After admitting that he had beencorresponding with Mrs. Irwin for sometime, he maid he did so for the purpose oftantalising Jim, Sunday night, he said,he was out rowing. He went to meet afriend ujamed Alvin Hayden, but did notmeet him. Hayden was some six or' sevenmiles distant, and he went to meet him forthe pleasure of his eo~ny returninghome, There was a squal on the river,and- he wrapped his oat about his oil coatinstead of reversin't the order, and the con-~

between 10 and 11 o'clock when he return-ed home to Rock Point, and instead of re-moving what as in the boat he left theoars and coat in the craft and did not even-fasten the boat. Asked why he had notfastened the boat, he said that sometimes,when boatmen are in .a hurry, they do notstop to make their boats fast. He said,however, that he was not In a hurry.

At this point States Attorney Posey turn-ed his questionir~g toward the question ofa shotgun. The shot picked from the

Gousipat Republican and DemocraticOmmittee Boom,

BRUMSICUS R OTSIGFICAIlY

What is Expected for the Fusionin Minnesota.

POLL ON A TRAIN

The republican congressional committee.as stated by Secretary Mercer in The Staryesterday, was not inclined to attach agreat deal of significance to the democraticvictory in the railroad town of Brunswick,Md., which was taken by the democrats asa straw indicating the direction of the po-litical wind at this time. The committee ismore of that opinion today, and Is in receiptof a communication upon the subject. It isan editorial in the Baltimore News, and Isas follows:"One would suppose that there had been a

terrific struggle between the adherents ofthe Rothschilds and Wall street bond-sharkson the one hand, and the unterrified cham-pions of the poor man's money and theNebraska orator on the other. In point offact, however, only 293 votes were polled outof a total voting population of about 600,which rather Indicates that most of thecitizens of Brunswick thought they weresimply electing a mayor and councilmen,and not helping specially to settle the finan-cial system of the country. Moreover, this'republican stronghold gave the republicancandidate for sheriff last fall a plurality ofjust 14 votes-234 against 220-although lastfall was a tidal-wave year for the republi-cans, who carried Maryland for governor bynearly 19,000 plurality. Yesterday the dem-ocratic candidate for mayor polled 161 votesagainst 120 for his opponent. With thesefigures before them, the people of the UnitedStates will probably decide that Brunswick,Md., has done but a very little as yet towardthe settlement of the presidential question."

Mr. Dabeock Expected Friday.Chairman Babcock of the republican

committee is expected to be at his deskby Friday, and will take up the businesswhich he was forced to suspend tempora-rily on account of interesting politicalevents In his own district. Vice Chair-man Apsley expects to leave about themiddle of the morth for a six weeks' tripthrough the west, upon which he will beaccompanied by Representative McCall ofMa sachusetts. It is Mr. Apaley's inten-tion to visit the principal republican head-quarters west of this city and to make per-sonal Inspections of the situation as repre-sented to the state central committees andthe congressional committees of the severaldistricts. In this way Mr. Apsley expectsto gain much information of the real sit-ustion throughout the country, which willbe of invaluagle aid to the congressionalcommittee in its conduct of the campaign.

Lively for the Clerical Force.While this was a dull day for news at

the congressional committee headquarterson account of the absence of prominentcallers and the lack of unusual informationIn the malls, it was a busy day for allhands around headquarteres, who find thework of the .committee Increasing in vol-ume day by day. The clerical force atthe Normardie have all they can do to keepup with the demands upon them, and theemployes of the docvment room around thecorner on I street are just as busy in theirown line of work.The committee has a suite of several

rooms on the parlor floor of the Norman-die, but it Ir still crowded for accommoda-tions. Visitors to the committee headquar-ters receive pciite attention and are shownInto the waiting room, where Mr. Bailey, acourteous ycung man, ascertains theirwants. It they want to see Vice ChairmanApsley they may find it a somewhat diffi-cult undertaking, because he is too busy totalk to everyLody who comes. The major-ity of the callers are seekers for employ-n'ent, too, and as the clerical force of thecommittee has long ago been made up,they do not receive a great deal of encour-agement.The newspaper men, who visit the com-

mittee at all hours of the day, are wel-comed to Col. Fred. Schrader's room, andfrom there they get access to the vl:echairman, who always has a word for thenewspaper men.

Circular to Colored Voters.-The republican congressional committeehas received a circular from the West EndMcKinley Club of this city, addressed tothe colored voters of the United States.It is issued by George W. Stewart, chair-man of the club, and exhorts the coloredpopulation to vote for the republicans, thecircular concluding with this paragraph:"Beware of the silver craze, shun thePopulists and stick to the old landmark."

At Democratic Headquarters,At democratic headquarters, on 15th

street, the caller upon entering the hall isconfronted Immediately by a gatewayguarded by a colored man. The rooms ofChairnman Faulkner and Secretary Gardnerare upstairs, and the plain citizen has torun a gauntlet of satisfactory explana-tions as to his mission before he gets intothis sanctum. Senator Faulkner Is alwaysapproachable to newspaper men, however,and the latter have no trouble in gettingaccess to him."The news from Minnesota today Indicates

probability of a big democratic victory inNovember," said Senator Faulkner to aStar reporter this afternoon. "With thefusion which has been made between thedemocrats and the populists, and with theconstantly increasing sentiment in favorof silver, I do not see how it will be possi-ble for the fusion ticket to fail to wipe outthe republicans almost completely."Advice. from Minnesota state that the

populist and democratic forces were com-bined at yesterday's convention, and aticket for the state made up which willtake in nearly every element of population.Ex-Congressman Lind, formerly a republi-can, was nominated for governor. He is aScandinavian, and he is expected to con-trol the entire foreign vote of the state.Other foreign elements besides the Scandi-navians w ere also provided for in theticket. The present republican lieutenantgoverno~r of the state has been nominatedfor Congress on a free silver ticket againstMcCleary, the gold republican, and a divi-sion has been made of the presidentialelectors between the populists and the dem-'ocrats.

A Pennsylvania Predititon,Ex-Congressman Mutchier of the eighth

Pennsylvania district was a caller at dem-ocratic headquarters today, and predidteda democratic silver majority of from 2,000to 4,000 in that district. He said the dem-ocrats would gain several Congressmenthrough the state, as the silver sentimentwas making great headway among themniners and laborers. In this connectionSenator Faulkner stated this afternoon thatthe committee's mail from Pennsylvaniais twice as large as it was two weeks ago,and that it is all for free siver. He saidthe county committees are all in line forthe ticket, and he looks for some pro-nounced gains in the state.One of the callers at democratic head-

quarters today who had noticed SenatorFaulkner's Interview in The Star yesterday,in which he stated that he feared a conflictb)etween the classes and the masses, toldof an incident which occurred on the Cin-cinnati express on the Baltimore and Ohiorailroad a few evenings ago.

Poli en a Train."After the train left Washington," he

said, "a fellow went through to poll thepassengers as to their political preference.In the smoking car and In the day coachBryan and free silver had a majority ofeighteen. When he got back into the Pull-man ears, however, gold and McKinley be-gan to forge to the front. By the time hehad gone through the last Pullman eargod and Mcainley had' a majority oftwnty.Tht's just about a fair sampleof the feeling among the people, as betweenthose who ride in day coaches and themembers of .th a class who can ride in Pull-man cars. 'On election day, however,' theniajdfity will' be' changed. In this caaethere were more Pulnn. cars i. te .ra.
