RESULTS OF THE ELECTION, Ho ThinlcM, llavo Como to Stay??l''rco Coinage,Cleveland ami l'rcc Trail o will bo tho Cry?Mllla* anuouiicomont a Paralyzor. "Washington, D. 0., Nov. 24.?Roger Q. Mills returned to tho capital yesterday somewhat fatigued by his cxeilionB during tho lato campaign. "Will the Democrats in tho next Con* gresa attempt to legislate in accordance with tho principles of the Farmers' Alliance?" queried a reporter. 'Tho Democratic Uouso in tho Fiftysecond Congress will meet tho demand for moro money by paBsimj a silver free coinn^obill,which theSenato mayor may not agree to, and which, if it ever roaches tho White House, will probably bo vetoed by President Harrison. That iB all the legislation we shall attempt In that line. It is idlo to talk of tho Bub-treasury bill. Tho Democratic party can never aa long as it exists, which will be as long an it is true to strict construct* ionist ideas, indorpe such an unconstitutional scheme. Mr. Tilden, in his let* tor to tho Iroquois Club, stated tho principle of the Democratic purty in one sentence: 'The general Government should do toothing for tho State which tho-^State can do for itself, and no Governmeut should do anything for the individual which he can do for himself.' ' We ought never to get away from that doctrine. Tho Democratic party believes that tho citizen is able to take eare of himself aui^ run his own finances. Wo propose to let him do it and keep as far away from paternalism as Dosei ble." " Has the victory come to stay ?" "Most undoubtedly. Tho people have emphatically iudoraed tho position of tho Democratic party on thetarifl question.* Many Republicans were willing to havo the necessary protection afforded infant industries, but they could not understand tho necessity for doubling , tbo protection on industries which had been established 100 years. When the Democratic party has control of the House, it will reduce the taritl on tho necessaries of life. Of course tho bill i will not pass a Republican Senate, but wo will redeem our promise and force the isBuo on that line until we get the Senate and President. If tho Republican party persists in legislating against the common people and in favor of the ' iru^tfl and combinations, tho revolt will ' |)e still greater nest time." Mr. Mills predict# tho nomination of Clevelaud by acclamation. He regards Blaine as tho etrongest man on the Republican side. JllUfc' CIIA.NCKS For tho Sjienl'tTblilji LMmuiij tho Other CandldnU'H. ^VapIiingto.v, D. C.,Nov. 24.?The announcement mado by Representative aVIills, of Texas, that lie has fully deterJiiined to retire from the House at the close of tho Fifty-second Congress, is regarded as a ehrowd bid for the Speakership, aud lias caused much consternation among the other candidates. Mills , 5ai undoubtedly tho foremost leader of liis party in the House, and the only question is whether it is expedient to elect him Speaker, with his avowed free trade views. The indications are thut , he is likely to develop more strength than any man from the South. TUB 1IUNE OFOUiNTMlOiX. The Elc?U?^n Will 3Iake the Coming j^cH&ion Exciting. "Washington, 24.?Thero has been and still is mucu speculation as to what Congress will do whu^ it convenes next Monday, and many wild statements are olloat as to what tho Fifty-.^eeand Congress will do when it meets a year later. The prognostications are not entitled to much crednuce. Both parties can be trusted to do tho best thing for them6elves respectively, and neither party will feel disposed to do the foolish thing of forcing an extra session of the Fiftyuecond Congress. It is probable that tho coming session will be an exciting and interesting one, particularly as there ia bo soon to be a transferor responsibility for legislation, but it is not probable that either fcido will permit the appropriation to fail,-which would bo the only thing that could mako an extra eeeeion necessary. The only bone of contention ia the federal Election bill, which ie on the calcudar of the Senate. Before any action ia ?aken concerning that ineafiure tlio Kowi.blican Senators will meet in caucus, it was fully determined when Jthey adjourned^ (orty'three Kepublican fc'enators having signed an agreement to that effect, that the bill should he taken up immediately upon their assembling, 'ami continueduntii disposed of. Whether the late elections will interfere with ihib programme remains to ho Boon. Sehaw01" Hoar, who has the mutter in charge, tocher with a number of leading Republican Senators who are here, insists moro stroi^y ^ian eXcr on necessity of passing fi^mo legislation that will secure honest electfoas. JLHIKU MUST DIE. Eloctroctm**! Decldutl to bo (Joi)Htltutlonul by IkoU.S. Hupruuie Court. "WAsniNQTOH, Nov. 24.?Tho Suprome Court of the United States to-day affirmed the judgment of tho Circuit Court for tho southern' district of New York, Judge Lacombo presiding, in the case oI Shibuya Jugiro, the Japanese confined in Sing Sing prison, New York, under sentence of death l?y means of electricity. It was sought to secure /ugiro's release on a habeas corpus on tho ground that. tlio Kemmler case had demonstrated I , that electrocution was a cruel and un-j ' usual punishment, and as such prohibited by the constitution. Chief Justice Fuller announced the decision oJ tho court, aiiu cuurb Hiuiuicu hue j wypn tho authority of the decision ip. .the JCerainlcr case. There wan no written .co;nion and the court did not go jfnto the consideration of the points jrnised by Jtmro's counsel, holding that ,so frtr its Pederal fluestions wero concerned, tho case did not differ from that &l Keinmlor.

Washington, D. 0., Nov. 24.?The an nual report of Mr. Lacey, Comptrollei of tho Curreucy, covers the operation! of the bureau for tho twelvo rnouthf onded Decomber 13, 1890. During thif period 307 new National Banking associations were organized, lifty went into liquidation and nine into receivers' hands. Net fncreaso 2t8. The Comptroller expresses tho opinion that tho evident lack of curroucy necessary to the proper conduct of business during tho past few mouths is greatly aggravated by tho retirement of National Bank notes, which form of paper money alono posnesses that elastic property so essential in a pefect circulation. All money iesued directly by the Government, whether of coin or paper, is necessarilv non-elastic by reason of its being in all cases as available for the lawful money reserve of national banks, and iu moat cases possessing legal tender quality. Tho Comptioller says asido from tho right to issue circulation notes, tho natiouai bulking system is, if its rapid extennion is a correct criterion, inoro favorably regarded tliau heretofore, and that the transactions of the year havo been attended by a more than average degreo ot success; that stockholders have, us a rule, received satisfactory dividends, nod that tho people at largo have been faithfully and economically served, and that as banks of discount and deposits the associations belonging to the national system have, taken as a whole, merited the high commendation of unprejudiced observers. llemovod.

ProEccuting At torney Howard and Captain D. 15. Dove ner nppearded for tho Statu, and Col \V. W. Arnett for tho defense. I Almost tho entiro' forenoon eeesiot was consumed in selecting twelve kooi men and truo who had not formed o: expretat'd an opinion as to tho guilt oi innocence ol the accused. Finally, how ever, about half past eleven o'clock, th< necessary panel was eompletu aod tin txlra oues were rejected bv tho parties lu examining the juror*! one of thoa< drawn and summoned, George Burkett did not unswer very satisfactorily tho in quiry put tohiuibyMr. Howard whethei he had not liad a talt with Mr. Seybold since he Had boon summoned as a juror A fow minutes later Mr. Howard asked the aaino question, and Burkett said lu had.- lie was promptly excused. It if but juBt to Burnett to explain that he has defective hearing, and sought for several (lave to bo excused from serving on tho jury, but did not succeed. He cliiims that ho did not hear Mr. Howard's question tho iirst time it was put to him yebterday, and it ia said his conversation with Seybold came about by chance, nnd was in reference to hid desire to be excused. As finally sworn the jury was composed of Messrs. John Wilkie, Joseph Periell, William Shannon, James Smith, Joseph Humes, Edward Bowman, \V. A. McCoy, Frauk Walter, Stewart Wallace, J. F. Shirk,. Ohurlea Heil and Charles Craig. The jury bfriug sworn, Capt. Dovener made the preliaiinary statement of the case for the prosecution. He narrated the story of the crime, recited Sej hold's confession of his guilt, told of tho dinpoaal made of the money, and outlined the plan of proceduceof the State to establish the truth of the theory that Seybold embezzled the $3-1,000. Ho said Seybold said that instead of locking the vault door with tho time lock, as usual, on the night he took the money, he had simply turned the combination lock, and afterwards returning to the bank, opened the vault, took the money out, aud then locked tho door with the time lock. Col. Arnett followed with a statement for the defense. Ho said his client had entered a plea of not guijty, and that he denied that ho embezzled the money. That he had had possesion aud control of the money was not denied, hut the character of his control Hnd the means of his coming into its possession would be shown by the evidence, and the defense relied upon that evidence to establish Sey hold's innocence of the crime charged in the indictment. Tho presentation of the issue being made, the court took a recess untii 2 o'clock in the afternoon. At 2 p. m. the court reconvened, and the taking of testimony was begun, the first witness being Mr. Gibson Lamb, of the bank. He was examined only as to the composition of the company owning the bank, its cflicers, the misting of the money which Seyboid is accused of haying stolen, and the amounts that were missed. Mr. 1). C. List, sr., next deecribed the package of $21,000, which was missed from tho vault. Ho said the money was all in bills. When the loss was discovered the nest morning, all who were present, among them Harry Soybold, expressed their surprise and mystification ns to howitpould have disappeared. On tho following Saturday Harry Sey-' bold was again asked about the package, and emuhatioally denied any knowledge of it. Seybeld aud the other ollicers and attaches of the bank hnd in a sense control of the money in tho vault. All had access to the vault. Mr. lasttuen narrated tho conlession Seybold had made, in tho witnees'a presence to Capt. Dovener and the others there, that he had stolen the $24 000. He said the prisoner said he was glad the truth was out, and glad ho liad made a eleaii breast of it, as it had troubled him a good deal, aud ha now felt easier. Being asked if he was sure Seyhold said he had stolen the money, Mr. List said that he \yas at least sure be said he had il. Capt. Dovener wns the next witnesp, ITe narrated ihe manner of his employ-, ment by the olUcers of tl\o Hank of Wheeling, am1* how the oa.se was worked up. lie said iseyhold told him that he got the money from Anton Key inann, and that it wh* deposited iu tho Bank of the Ohio Valloy to the joint credit of himself and George llennig. The Captain drew from him gradually admissions-'that his atory was untrue, and after ho was confronted by Mr. Ilennig, he confessed that he had stolen the $24,000 package, but said that wns all he hud stolen, lie drew checks for what ho had kit in tho Bank oi the Ohio Valley, about $11,000, and turned over a certificate of deposit for which was in the Dollar Savincs Bank. \yiien ae^ed where the other $12,000 Was he said, after a good deal of evasion, that it was in the Natioual Bjnk of West Virginia?that is, $5 000 of it was. After more flumping heaped thpra waqanother certificate 6? deposit for $2,000 in the Qollar Savings Bank. Ho had also $4QC to his credit in the Bank of Wheeling, ice riant Block 01 SyjOQ una a note for money he had loaned?$GOO. In nil he produced $22,500 of credit*, or agreed produce thuru nud turn them over that evening or the next day. Subsequently he inado a deed for hia'house anu furniture. This all occurred on the night of August 1 and the morniog of the second, in the office of Squire George Arkle. Mr. Henoig was arrested on ibe strength of Soybold'a statements, bat was ^q^.r: ably discharged,when the^uth<uiineout.

Mr. Grimm. 0! the K.eyraanu BrewingCorur.any'fl onice, was present in the oJMfceVnu confronted Seyqolfl when tue ctateincnt was made that the money was borrowed from Sir. Keymann. The croea examination of Captain Dovoner waa directed uiainly to tht point aa to whether Harry Seybold eyei said in explicit tayraq thr,t he bad taken tho iQO$ey. The Captain waa positive he did. County Constable Itfve waa noxt called for the proaecution. He t?stilled thai he waa in the ofUce of Squire Arkle when Seybold was brought there, am: he beard the conversation in which Sey bold confe6aed to Captain Dovener and tho other* present. Ho substantially corroborated the testimony of the others who had told of that conversation. Constable William Lauchlin waa nex put on the stand, and gave substan tially the same testimony as to tho cor, fession as had Love, lauchlin told alst of thearrehtof Seybold, which ho'made aaied if he had told tho prison er whalbo wan arrested for, ami said did not; that bo told him ho would ti him when thoy reached the squire's t lice. Ho was naked if lie had not to hiin a friend of his wis in trouhlo i '/ town, and wautcul to seo him, and a Bwored that he did not; ho had to Mrs. Sey bold that story to avoid altirn iug her. *i Mr. Gibson Lamb, whoso teatlmor 11 had before been Intarrupted by an ol jection by Ool.

Chicago, Nov. 24.?A secret conference is being held to-day by a joint committee of the National Commission and the Local Directory of the Worlds Fair, with a view of determining the much disputed queetion of jurisdiction in the management of the Fair. The Directory claim that the $10,000, 000 fund mast l)e expended under its ioim'dinte supervision, subject ro the approval of the Commission. There ie uot likely to bo serious division on this point, but a graver issue is the matter of soliciting exhibits. Under the Com/nieuioner'a interpretation the directors eould do nothing in this direction without the approval of the Commission, and that the Directory seriously objects to. The Rc^rd ulso objects to tne Commission's interpretation of the act, hold, ing that the Board has no power to organize anyaction in regard io exhibitor!', foreign or domestic. The progress oi the Fair will depend largely on the turn1 per of the two bodies, for if either should become obstinato a deadlock might en! sue and the consequences bo most Ber1 ious.
