March 10 The senatorial weather vane bobbed about again today, and Palmer is once more on top. Saturday it looked as though Streoter would surely bo elected by the republicans and Farmer' Mutual Bene-ti- t association men, but it appear probable now that the scheme of the r republicans will prevail, and if it does Palmer will be elected. Moore and Coekrell, i'. M. H A., have decided to vote tomorrow for General Palmer. In view of this start-lin- n determination of the farmer repre-sentatives the republicans refrained from voting in joint session today anil an adjournment was taken until tomor-row. The republicans this afternoon are discussing the advisability of voting for representative Moore as the only means to prevent tho election of Gen-eral rainier.

The Irish local government board has issued a report on the failure of the potato crop and the condition of congested district. It states that the districts in which the disease appeared comprise about half of Ireland, The light dry soils crop in some places was excellent; in cold, wet land and in mountain districts the fail-ure was everywhere serious. Corn crops were mostly good and green crops were up to the full aver-age. Other resources of the farmors are About up to the average. Briefly the report goes to show that small farmers are in good circumstances but confronted with a scarcity of potatoes, unprecedented in thirty years, causing tho deepest distress in the congested districts. The distress is aggravated by the reluctance of local shopkeeper to grant credit. Some of tho board estimate the po-tato crop failure equivalent to the mid-day meal. The report gives details as to how the suffering poor should be re-lieved and shows the distress yet on the increase. Relief applications are con-line- d to the congested districts of the west and to the laboring and fishing classes of the south. It is expected the pressure will become more general be-tween now and April. DRAFT OK A CONSTITUTION. Dt iii.i.v, March 10.

A pledge was also proposed binding all members of parliament who declare for national federation to vote with the party. AFFAUIS jnrussia. The Northern Bear Waiting It Chanoe to Grab Another Slioe of the Scan-dinavian Territory. WARNING TO THE ROTHSCHILDS. They Have Entered Into a Compact With the Standard Oil Company-Je- ws Embrace Orthodoxy. St. rETEitsiu iw, March 10. The dis-sensions caused by tho political situa-tion in Scandinavia is keenly watched and followed here. Russia has long been waiting for an opportunity to in-corporate into the Russian em-pire the country beyond tho northwest frontier, thus gaining a free At-lantic seaboard and enabling Russia to make Ofoton iu Norway a naval port of equal strategetio importance with Vladivostok near tho northern limit of Corea in the sea of Japan, by joining the gap now separating the rail-way systems of Russia and Scandinavia. Tho semi-otlici- Noroe Vermya takes up a hint that if the Rothschilds espouse tho cause of tho Hebrews it means a financial pressure upon the Rus-sian government and publishes a long, venomous article saying tho Rothchilds themselves have given portages to Rus-sian government insomuch that they now own practically the Naphtha springs of liaku and have arranged with the American Standard Oil com-pany to divide tiie markets of the world. Novoe Vremya then says: would not fail in the event of financial troubles to give a Roland for an Oli-ver." Since the London mansion house meeting, wnich expressed sympathy with the Hebrews, and resulted in the sending of a memorial to the czar, the severity of the anti-Jewis- penal laws have been redoubled iu vigor. W hen written laws are inadequate, arbitrary laws replace them, in view of these persecutions about 100,000 of the poorest classes of Jews have em-braced the Russian orthodox creed. TWO SPIRITS IN COURT. Tb. High Chancellor lsy With tho Police i'lrkln(. Judge Limey was unwittingly called on to preside at a seance when court began its grind this morning and was soon being whirled through the myste-ries of spiritualism. The seance was a material chapter in the case of the city against George Meaken, charged with disturbance of the peace. Meaken, who is a married man, don't be-lieve in the doctrine of spiritualism, especially when his better half is the candidate and a rival man is the medium. Accordingly he look three or four doses of the fluid extract of courage yesterday and went thunder-ing dowu to the residenco of Mrs. Melissa Miller at which place his wife is cinploved. Meaken was also under tho influence of tne spirit at that time and was refused admission. The spirit became fiercely unruly and Meaken was landed in the embrace of an olllcer, whom he accom-panied to jail. This morning he swore that it was not the influence of Mrs. Miller, who was ordained a medium in California, but the more poteut powers that were wielded by her sou. Meaken was fined $,'0 and costs. On Ilia Trail. ConstabloJ. Edward Friest arrived from Albuquerque last night in pursuit of W. S. Crawford, who was recently arrestee! in this city on a charge of em-bezzlement and discharged on a habeas corpus. Crawford has disappeared, however. Tho fugitive who was in the employ of H. M. Hosick & Co., wool buyers of AlhiiinirniiH is rhnrtrcd with bavins skipped, leaving a shortage of overtfOU behind him. Police Ptrklng-a- Bella Wheeler and Capitola Douglas, a pair of nymphs, were run in last night and this morning forfeited S.j each. E. Mott and Charles Ilalloway are on trial this afternoon for petty larceny in the stealing of two shot guns of the value of t'VJ.oO that were recovered yes-terday. Marshal Young is in harness again after an illness that at times ren lered further service at the head of tho department exceedingly and uncomfor-tably problematical. La grippe pruned about twenty pounds of flesh off his anatomy, and while the loss has en-feebled him somewhat ho comes forth with an appetite that gives every as-surance of soon restoring the loss. A host of friends are gratified at his ap-pearance on deck again. THE INSPECTOR ON A PLUNCE. , I.epiiey Takea a .it That Ha. aa Bar- - prilling a. a Kill. City Plumbing Inspector Lepsley was tho hero of a wild runaway at 10 o'clock this morning. He was driving his horse, to a dog cart, at the head of Main street, when for some unaccountable reason the beast became frightened aud in-dulged in a hilarious toboggan slide gait down the thoroughfare. Lepsley held on like a case of la grippe to a real estate agent until ho was opposite Wells-Fargo'- s bank, when he collided with a Troy Laundry wagon. The horso was stopped and so was Lipsley, j' who wa rescued try bis friends from a fathomless sea of inud, allee same as McGiuty. A SNOWBOUND ISLAND. A Terrible Snow Storm Blocks Traffioin ' Every Fart of England Storiei of Awful Suffering. TRAINS , STIOK IN THE DRIFTS The Passengers Frozen in the Unheated Oars Less of Life Along the Coast Mail Oar Lost. London-- , March 10. The bli..ard in outh England continues, though the weather in London is milder. The railroads of Kent and Sussex are com-pletely blockaded. The neighboring country is covered deeply with snow. A hurricane which accompanied the biiow storm piled tho snow drifts on all sides stopping all trallio on Vhc railroad lines aud upon the country roads. Two trains of passengers in the mid-lands were snowed np last night and the passengers were not rescued until this morning. The rescued people suf-fered terribly from cold during tho night owing to the unheated condition of the cars. A train on the north Kent railroad bound for this city, was snowed up lust night and still remains iu the railroad cutting where it was stopped by the drift. A number of engines were sent to the scene but they have been unuble as yet to move the train. The Sherness mail car cannot be found. It was Inst somewhere nlong the Hue between this city aud Sherness. A party was sent out after the missing mail car, and rescued the engineer and the lost engine. He was found frozen still' iu tho snow. Two clergymen were snowed up in a carriage ou the Taversham road last night, and were rescued with diliiculty, after having suffered severely. Reports from the provinces show the blizzard prevailed from St. George's channel to tho North sea. One of the elfects of the severe storm has been the stoppage of the South Wales iron works. All road trallio is stopped aud trains were delayed. In Somersetshire, Dorsetshire, Hamp-shire and Gloucestershire there are snowdrifts everywhere, mauy feet deep, rendering Hold work impossible. In these counties the mail service is com-pletely stopped and fanners have suffered iiifiuense loss of cattle and sliucp. Another instnnce of a snow blockade of a train is upon a road familiar to Americans, who cross the channel to and from the continent. The passonger train which left Charing Cross railroad station at midnight for was caught in a huge snowdrift outside of Norfalkeston. The passengers were net rescued until this morning when many of them were severely ill owing to being almost frozen. The passengers had neither food nor light from the time they were imprisoned iu the snow bound cars. On the London Chatham and Dover railroad trains were delayed for hours. Maidstone, Sheerness and Sittingbourne are cut oil from communication with the surrounding country. In addition to damage done by the storm ilseif, the 'Thames has commenced to rise in a dangerously rapid manner, ami is already inundating the low lying districts bordering the river from Kick-mo- il down. The green groccs of this city and elsewhere are naturally sull'ering from the dearth of vegetables, etc. All wagons coming in from the country were snowed up along the roads and a scarceness and a raise in price of such provisions may be looked for during the next day or so. Work ou the docks in and about London is partially sus-pended owing to the mass of snow ac-cumulated about them. In South Devonshire the snow storm continued in violence. Railroads are blockaded and a mail train bound from Southampton for London are snowed up. Towns on tho channel islands are also cut off by the snow from all com-munication with each other. At Lydd, a small seaport town of Kent, while the coastguard life boat was going to tho rescue of the crew of an endangered vessel, the life boat cap-sized and several of its oocnpanLs were drowned. Near Hastings. Sussex county, five fishing smacks were wrecked and three fishermen drowned. The others barely escaped. At one period of tho storm it was said that the mail boat plying be-tween Dover and Calais and on her way to the latter port had foundered. The report turned out to be incorrect, the mail boat having reached Calais in safety, but iu n terribly battered condi-tion. In addition to the blockaded trains already referred to, several are snowed up at different places along the various roads, in all cases the passengers have suffered severely. Several persons are reported missing and it is believed have found death in tho snow drifts while endeavoring to reach places of shelter. This afternoon ouly meagre telegrams have been received" from various parts of England and Wales. The lines, ac-cording to these dispatches, are gener-ally blocked. A dispatch from Harwich brings the information that the yacht Saphire owned hy Maclarr of Glasgow, was driven ashore there during a gale. MacLarr was washed overboard and drowned. Information received from Cardiff this afternoon is to the effecj that much clamago was done by the storms. A man was found frozen to death in Surrey. FIRE FOR THE MORMONS. A California!)

It Mill Cn.t tha llov.rnni.nt :l0,O0O Older Wa.lilut-tu- Washington, March ID. The setting forth of the Hearst funeral procession has started a Hood of gossip about tho cost of senatorial funerals. Representa-tives of Alabama says the Heart fu-neral cortege, now ou its way to Cali-fornia, cost not less than :)0,6oo. Nine senators and eight representatives were appointed on the part of their respect-ive houses as an escort of honor. 'The wives of some of these gentlemen ac-companied them as well as two em-ployees of tho senate. it was said the day before the train left that Mrs. Hearst had set her foot down on so large a party going, and that sooner thau have the melancholy obsecjuies made a mere excuse for a junket at tho government expense, she would pay the cost of the train herself and shut out the junketers, but she does not seem to have been successful. CIRCUIT COUKT JUDGES. It is stated on the highest authority that the nine circuit judges provided for at the recent session of congress will not be appointed for several months yet, the president being of tho opinion that each of the new courts can be or-ganized at the time lixed by tho act (the third Wednesday in Juno) by the associate justices of the supreme court, the regular circuit judge and tho dis-trict judtres in each of tho respective circuits, regardless of the fact that the new circuit judges may not then have been appointed. 'The same authority said this disposed of the report that there would be an extra session of the senato for consideration of these ap-pointments. chop STATISTICS. Statistical returns from tho depart-ment of agriculture for March show corn held by farmers to be Uti.4 per cent of the crop, in comparison with 45.9 per cent last vear; in bushels, against 97O,00O.0(l() last year.

A Kamlnlaraaea that Offer IMelf A tain In Coaneet'011 with tha Eiplorora Vlilt to Ziou Mr. Stanley and tha I.lautenant's lleorptlun. Mr. G. F. Wall, special agent of the interior with headquarters at Black-foo- t, arrived in the city last evening. Mr. Wall has been a great voyager dur-ing his lifetime and may rightly num-ber Binong the "globe t;otters," al-though the trip around this little sphere was not mado against time. Among other reminiscences in a nautical ex-perience that extended over an event-ful cycle of time was his meeting with Henry M. Stanley at Abyssinia, when the former was aboard a man-of-wa- r and wbeu the explorer was yet a mere bagatelle . in letters and in fame. The wealth of self-estee-with which he was gifted wa vigorously asserted even at that primitive period in bis career, however, ..idis a matter that is as imperishable jw the reminis-cence itself. Mr. Wail wwi have been pleased to have listened to the illus-trious "tramp's" discourse upon the Dark Continent, but had just arrived after a pilgrimage that was w ell nigh as tedious as some portions of that which Stanley endured, and sought his moor-ings at an early hour in the evening. Ho leaves for Blackfoot tomorrow, where ho has a large amount of work to do prior to the meeting of the supreme court, before which he has a large uutn-be- r of land cases. STANLEV DIDN'T AI'I'KAIt An ever changing throng of people filled the Terupleton parlor between 8:S10 and 5 p.m. yesterday in the expec-tation of moeting Henry M. Stanley, the explorer of darkest Africa, and his talented wife. The latter was there decked in smiles and silks, but the hero was conspicuous only for his absence. To say that the crowd of callers was disappointed would be a mild state-ment of the truth. Frequent inquiry elicited only a qualified answer that the hero was tired aud it certainly made the inquisitors so. He who could penetrate the jungles of Africa should not give out in the mire of Salt Lake when he had caused the multitude to come and admire him. In his stead Lioutenaut Jephson assisted Mrs. Stanley in the reception. Ho is a pleasant little gentleman, chatty and witty as any Irishman, and full of ad-venturous experience. Mrs. Stanley herself is a portly though graceful lady, who might attract atten-tion for her beauty in England, but never in America. Her typo is the ro-bust English, denoting mutton chops, beefsteaks and outdoor exercise. She bore the handshaking ordeal nobly, all to save her hero-husban- the fatigue, aud reserve his strength for "the even-ing's lecture. The committee having charge of Mr. Stanley were full of praise of him as he is himself. The ego is foremost in the explorer's mind. Maybe it requires a great deal of self assurance to go out into the dark continent and suppress negroes and crocodiles, but it is the opinion of some people who have met aud heard him that circumstances alter cases and that is this civilized country a little more modesty would add variety if not charm to his conversation. . PICKARD'S PROTEST, The Tenipeit Continue to Hover Onr tha Tuapot With Harm to No (tne. The proceedings on the civil docket during the day wero cphemcreal as a flight of fancy, notwithstanding that both limb of the court were in fine trim and ready for almost any task. The interest in Judge Anderson's chamber clustered around the case of l'ickard against tho City of Salt Lake in rela-tion to the old Fort block and the Deep Creek railway. Judge Dixon, associ-ated counsel for the defense, was the ouly one of the lawyers iu the case to report. When the issue was called Judge Anderson manifested some de-sire to get it under argument and stated that if it was reachod in the next few hours he would make an effort to arrive at a docision on Saturday next before taking his departure for other points in his jurisdiction. Mr. Dickson stated that they would let the matter bo set down for tomor-row morning at 10 o'clock and the tempest and the teapot stand without any material change. In the case of H. W. Nichols v. Julia Walder in which plaintiff seeks judg-ment in the sum of $1209.63 for services as an architect, the demurrer was sus-tained, Judge Rawlins appearing for the plaintiff and Mr. Bowman for tho defense Before Zano. The docket in Judge Zane's depart-ment was soon disposed of. In the case of Everett vs. The Union 1'acilic railway the case was passed on citation that a compromise was pend-ing. In the rase of Isaac Woolf vs. The Union l'acific railway a continuance was taken for the term, after which court adjourned until tomorrow morn-ing at 10 o'clock, at which time the reg-ular settings will bo taken up. Court Notaa. Judge Anderson will probably leave the last of the week to look after busi-ness at rural points. Tho attention of the United States commissioners is confined almost ex-clusively to matters of a civil nature. Tho l'ickard protest is not attracting as much attention nor aawakeuing as much of an agitation as ihe protestant expected. There is a blank-cartridg-feature about it that the public won't take to. The bondsmen in the Billy Allen case for alleged irregularities at the ballot box were skirmishing around the hall-ways this morning in response lo notices that the bond had been forfeited aud that the clerk was ready to receive and receipt for the cash. It is under-stood that Allen is an unwilling subject under the reign of King Snow up in the northern country, and that it is impos-sible fer him to get out until the trail is opened. The facts are said to have been submitted to tho prosecution. STORMS EVERYWHERE. . ' Rain and Know Fell In Large Quantities Om a Wide Area. The signal service bureau" reports that the storm which this city experi-enced last night extended over a vast expanse of area west of the Wasatch mountains. At 6 o'clock this morning snow was falling at Rawlins and Washkie, Wyo., and at Helena, Mont., where it had rained all night. Private reports received give tho information that it snowed hard all last night at Bineham, Park City and Tintic. The precipitation in this city up to lOo'clock amounted to .ISS of 1111 iuch. THE THEATER LICENSE. Tha Appllnanta Congratulate TheraselTai that It it Within Keach The special attraction on the council calendar at tonight's session will be the application of the Franklin avenue theater authorizing the sale of nutri-tious fluids. They will probably get it. Tho supporters of the application have got Councilman Parsons in tho chair and consequently in the pocket. This gives them a majority in the event that all its advocates are present and the long sought license wull probably have been found. However, should Councilman Colin be absent it will again be thrown into a tie. 'This will not be permitted, however, tonight for unless it can be carried the application will in the pigeonhole to await more favorable auspices. BIG BOSKJN FAILURE. Dudley H ull Si Cn.
