Frrmont, 0., Jan. IS.— The Hayes- mansion
today was kept very quiet. Birchard llayes and

of condolence still continue to pour on the

BENJAMIN HARRISON.
Orover Cleveland telegraphed from LSkewood,
N. J., saying: *
I desire to express my heartfelt sympif.bv with
you und those who mourn with y.nf- in the
household made desolate by the death; of your
beloved and houored fatner. -
UROTK* CLEVELAND.
John Wanamaker, from Washington > ity, tel
egraphed: -
I beg to assure yon of my sincere stinpathv.
Sixteen years' acquaintance with yo*r lather
ripened into affectionate regard for bin?;
William M. Evarts said:
We all send our love aud sympathr.
but the great severity of the weather prevents
our coming to the funeral. ?
John Sherman said:
I received with profound sorrow Jhe an
nouncement of «ie de/ith of your taller. Hit
eminent a most exalted jKi-ition are
appreciated by \ll the people of thr United
States. I deeply sympathize with vou- in your

The funeral arrangements are in the Stands of
Col. H. S. Buck laud, but this is understood to
be ouiy temporary, and Col. Corbett com
plete charge. Nothing more definittj is yet
known beyond the fact that the hour is'-et for 2
p. in. Friday.
The Loyal Legion of Massachusetts *as tele
graphed that it would atteud the tun?ralina
body. The mayor issuedli proclamation this
afternoon calling upon the citizens to £ieet to
night for the purpose of passing suuaLft} reso
lutions and making arrangements ior the
care of the people who will l>e present
during the funeral. The city council also
met and passed suitable resolution* The
Odd Fellows, of which Gen. lla\<ja was
a member, met tonight for a similar pur
pose. The Sandusky County Bar Association
will nvet tomorrow at 10 o'clock to "raw up
resolutions of respect and for the of
transacting other business with referent?" to the
deatn of ex-l'res dent Hayes. At a «itizeiis'
meeting this evening arrangement »or the
funeral were practically comploted. r
Col. Bucklaud announces that the general
will lie in state from early Friday morning, in
order to permit the citizens to view trie »omsins
in the morning and the visiting guest* ia the

The news of the death of ex-Freaiden;£ Haves
was received this rooming by t •* -'tiZfic- with
great sorrow. The whole ctty i» in mourning,
testifying to tho regard in which the general
was held. ■-
The funeral services will be simple an<£will be
held at the family residence at 3 o'clock>>n Fri
day afternoon. The exercises wi tl be similar to
those at the funeral of Mrs. Hayes. Re'r. J. W.
Rarsford, of the Ohio Wesleyan university, of
Delaware, 0., will conduct the services, £ud tho
local G. A. R. post will probably have simple
ceremonies. Gen. Haves was born at Delaware,
0., and Mrs. Hayes received a part ol hair edu
cation there. After Mrs. Hayes' deati* Gen.
Hayes erected a simple family monument of
Vermont granite on tho family plot,;with a
blank space for his own nnine> and
iu compliance with his wishes hf will
bo laid beside his lifo companion.
Among the telegrams of condolence received
here were those from President Harrisons Secre
tary Foster, the living members of Hayer' cabi.
net, state officials, ex-Gov. Foraker Gov.
Pattison, of Pennsylvania. The living numbers
of Hayes' cabinet are: W illiarn M. KvartJ, John
Sherman, Alexander Raiusav, Nathan ujtf', li.
W. Thompson, D. M. Key and Carl sc'.uri
Especially touching telegrams were r<~eired
from old army friends and soldier or gam."at ions
throughout the country. Many intimate fiends
called at the house of mourning duriiig day
to tender sympathy and assistance.

ing this evening to tike appropriate a£t;on.
The Republican senate eaucus called for t<.>::£.'.t

ueßiKuate<l Capt. Howell and Commanders
Dickens and Houston to represent it at the fu
neral. 1 hey left lor Fremont tonight. The at
torney general called the attention of the su
preme court to the death of ex-President Hayes
and the court adjourned.
w hile the knowledge of ex-President Hayes'
serious illness somewhat prepared the senators
and representatives here for the sad news of his
death, stiil it came with a shock to many of
those wno knew him intimately aud were hope
ful of his ability to resist the last attack.
Seuator Sherman was perhaps more intimately
associated with ex-President Hayes than any
other senator, and as a member of his cabinet
"its officially associated with the administra
tion. He was deeply moved, and after the sen
ate adjourned at his motion, said:
I kuew him as well, perhaps, as any ono cau
xnow anoiner. He was nlways fair and just to
lriend and foe, and sometimes faiiei to »«y no
when it would have -been better for him to
nave done so, because of his disposition to
oblige every one. The South should feel pm
roundlv grateful to hira, for with infinite oour
aso he extended to the white men of that
section an opportunity to organize
their states at a time when they had
been bitterly unjust to him. The death of
llayes comes to me like a sudden blow, but I
believe he was as well prepared for death as hu
man nature will permit us to be.
Senator Bryce spoko very feelingly of Hayes,
whom he new well. lie said:
I will at the proper time pay my tribute to
the worth of Mr. Haves as a man, c.tizen and
public official. As a Democrat I criticised with
much heat and great teeling the conduct ana
course oi affairs by which he b-icame president,
but the warmth and kindliness, fairness aud
tenderness of the ex-president were such that I
was never able to teel any sense of resentment
against him individually. I can now see that
bis administration as president softened the as
perities growing out of the civil war and led
to that perfect union aud the blessings which
we are new enjoying.
The death of ex-President Hayes was re
ceived quietly by the members oi the house:
Ihe members of the Ohio delegation, nearly
every one of whom WAS personally acquainted
Witi. the ex-president, spoke kindly of him. lu
speaking the sentiments of the Democrats oi
Ohio towards Hayes Representative Outhwaite,
I>em., said:
The Democrats of Ohio always regarded him
as a conscientious inau, patriotic, and devoted
to the interests of his country.
Representative Dugan, Dem., said:
llayes was popular in Ohio. The Democrats
never blamed him personally for the result in
lNfi. He did no more than Tiideu. They both
permitted party friends to work the matter out.
and I don't think auy blame is attached in the
minds of Deirocrats toward ilr. Hayes person
ally. H? was a popular man, a patriot «in war
and a patriot in peace, aud loved the whole
Union.
Hepresentative Caldwell said there was deep
regret among Ohio Republicans. Mr. Hayes'
career was one of the most remarkable of auy
public man in the state aud country.
Representative Burrows oi Michigan said:
Ex-President Hayes deserves and will hold an
honorable place m the hiKtory oi this country.
In civil aud military life he discharged every
trust with fidelity, and when occasion required
exhibited reserved power aud courage equal to
any emergency.
The Evening Star pays this tribute to the ex
preiiiiieut:
That a great man died when Rutherford B.
liayes breathed his last cannot be questioned.
He was not a brilliant man, but one in whom
there were qualities far more desirable than that
ephemeral something which captivates tea
tnougntless and moves the multitude to uu
meamug applause. Underlying every act of tins
was a solid principle, aud so *ar as
the people were permitted glimpses into his
home life the same prtacip.e seems to have con
trolled private allairs. Tho-e who pride them
selves on being practical politicians may have
but feeole commendation lor his admiuistra
tiou as chiei magistrate, but their faint praise
cannot adect his character, nor is it in the
power of man to undo the great good he un
doubtedly accomplished, 'lnrice elected gov
ernor of Ohio, he failed in no duty that prom
ifed to exalt the commonwealth that save him
high honors in return lor his devotion. As a
member 01 the house of representatives ne was
11 firm friend ot all that was honest and true; as
president of the United States, inaugurated after
the ino»t memorable electiou struggle in the na
tion's history, he set his lace aguiust all man
iner of wrong and gave untfiuching encourage
ment to labors of charity aud political right
eousness. Uiat such a course should result 111
superficial unpopularity was to be expected,
buttitue wiil bring justice.

MR. ROSCOE UNMASKS.
He Changes His Vote to Turner
to Lead a Stampede.
BUT IS ONLY LAUGHED AT.
The Country Youth's Head Turned by
flattery of Cunning Bosses.
The Legislature Meets in Joint Session
and Casts Six Ballots, With Change
of Only One Vote—Turner t'sed as a
Decoy Only-Mr. Teats Withdraws.
OLYMHA, Jan. 13.— -{Special.]—The boast oi the
Turner managers that tney had a traitor in the-
Alieu camp was made good today when Roscoe,
the infantile statesman of Snohomish, after mak
ing the astounding explanation that he had
grown weary of showing respect to the wishes
of his peopie when they conflicted with his
|»ersoual inclinations, announced that he would
cast his vote for Turner. This unblushing
acknowledgement of betrayal of his con
stituents and of the solemn pledges
was met with loud appleuse from the
Turner managers aud heelers withiu
and without the bar, who were prepared for tho
denouement of their plot, but more than one
man who hud just cast his vote for Turner ex-
approval of tlie scathing rebuke
administered on tho succeeding ballot
by Rift h of Whatcom. Mr. Koih's
explanation was in marked contrast to
that of Mr. Koscoe. He, too, had come here
with another choice, but when he learned that
the wish of his constituents was that ho
should support Senator Allen, he did not
consider hiinsulf greater than the i>eople who
sent hiin here and he would therefore
continue to vote for John B. Allen.
Koscoe has been kept busy since the adjourn
ment of the joint session seeking excuses for
his perfidy, other thau those he gave publicly,
and which were so puerile that he is left
without a single inch of grouud upon
which to staud. The betrayal of a
sacred trust, the transgression of an
established rule of political parties, the viola
tiou of a solemn pledge, are bard matters to ex
plain by any rule known to men of sincerity or
moral backbone. A large number of Mr. Koeooe's
constituents wero upon the ground today, and
the unanimity with which they reiu>ed to accept
his explanations and insisted thai there must
have been something more substantial thau per
sonal preference to cause the youthful states
man to betray tue trust confided iu him,
made his life a burden alleviated only by the
clammy approbation ot the inmates of the po
litical cemetery.
Koscoe came to Olympia several days before
the session opened with very exaggerated ideas
of his own importance, aud was immediately
seized upon by Mayor Kobinson, Tom t'ava
uaugh and Nick Owing*, the local trium
virate, who dined and wined him while
they dilated upon the bright future that
lay before him. Congress, they told him, was
but a step higher, and might be attaiued by one
of his matchless ability, adroitness and state
craft. When the organization of the house
came on he demanded all sorts of favors from
the Allen managers before he would discuss the
situation with them. It was Roscoe tirst and
the people afterward with him, and be openly
boasted that he would teach politicians a few
tricks they had never heard of. His ambition
was to bo "boss" aud patronage dispenser of Sno
homish county. He secured the chairmanship of
one of the most important, aud a place ou the •
judiciary and other leading committees. Ho
made a pretense of yieldiug to the ex
pressed wishes of hie constituents,
signed the caucus calf, entered the cau
cus, and then, after voting to make
John B. Allen the nominee, male a solemn
pledge to support him until released from that
obligation by caucus action. All the while ho
was playing into the hands of Turner's man
agers. They cajoled and flattered him iuto the
belief that by treachery he could attain fame that
would mount him upou the pinnacle of his am
bition. They made him believe that the first
man to break the caucus pledge would be a
bellwether to a flock of traitors. He jumped
the fence of his own political obligation, only
to find himself a dupe. The forty-seyen others
were honorable men.
The man who gave Roscoe what little political
standing he has in Snohomish county is William
Plummer, of Edmonds. It was Plummer who se
cured Roscoe's nomination for county clerk three
years a's'o, when Roscoe lived in Edmonds and
was not known in any other precinct in the
county. So far as known Hummer has never
asked favors of his protege till a few days ago,
when he sent a message asking him
to voto for John B. Allan, the
choice of the people. Pratten, another
Edmonds friend and supporter of Koscoe, who
helped nominate him for the legislature, also
added his name to the request of Plummer in
favor of Allen. The principal anti-
Allen men in Snohomish county aro a
band of Everett bolters, tho most promi
nent of whom aro the Pucker brothers
and their attorney, Crosscut The members of
the firm claim to be Republicans, but they
issued a circular a day or two before the last
election abusing: and denouncing John 11. Mc-
Graw and askieg the Republicans not
to vote for him. It was W.
J. Kucker, of this tirin, who grossly
insulted Mr. McGraw in Everett shortly before
election. The principal anti-Alien man in Sno
homish is Attorney I- F. Hart, who denounced
the Republican county convention when
it refused to nominate him and after
ward wrote a letter to the head
of the People's party indorsing their
sentiments aud regretting that sickness pre
vented him from attending their rally,
to* which he had been invited to deliver
an address. The anti-Alien sentiment is
centered in Everett, winch went against
Roscoe on election day. The Allen nupporters
in Snohomish county number the leading citi
zens of tho county, among them being
such men us Mayor Ferguson, of Snoho
mish city, ex-Senator Vestal, ex-Representative
Krater, Superior Judge J. C. limny, County At
torney Heflner, Attorneys J. B. Ault, W. P. Bell,
G. A. Alien, A. W. Hawks, Coon and Mooney,
Fred 11. Lysons, Ulmer Stinson and Isaac Cath
cart, two of the pioneers and leading citi
7.JUS of Snohomish county; C. C, Thornton, In
dian agent at Tulalip; 11 C. Comtgys, vice pres
ident of the First National bank of Snohomish
City; County Treasurer Lawry, Capt. If >r.-
zird, the Republican warhorse of Mukilteo;
E. E. Warner, secretary of the Republican
county central committee and publisher of
the Snohomish Tribune, and the list could be
extended almost indefinitely, borne of the
leading citizens of Everett are also warm
supporters of Senator Allen. Among thfin n*e
F. B. Brownell, one of the brightest politicians
and most popu ar men in the county; I>.
F. r-exton, N. I». Waliing, another prominent
politician; Col. 1. V. E idy, 11. I>. Cooley,
temporary chairman of the Republican county
convention; S. 11. Nichols, candidate for the
state senate; Mark Swinnerton, the pione r
business man of Marysvllle, and Attorney W.
»V. lilack, another man who he.ped nominate
Roscoe for the legislature. E. C. F*rgnson,
the pioneer mayor of Snohomish, who for a
score or more years was kept in the legislature
by the people of Snoaomish county because of
his loyalty as well as his ability, cume
here with the intention of remaining tilt the
end of the senatorial contest, but was so thor
oughly disgusted with Roscoe's faithlessness
that he took the first trtin home after the joint
session, not. however, until he had given
tne youngster a very forcible expression of
opinion. He told him that he was a traitor, and
aptly reminded him of the lgoominous fate of
"Blue Jay' Parkinson, of the last session.

1 hese wreckers are fchtins* now nnder the

using him a< a decoy. They nave
another plan to further, and aa
soon as they are ready to spring: it
they wi,i abandon Turner with the alacrity of
the freebooters of fortune that they are. They
a-e playing now for delay. The purpose
of tticse stiletto gentry ia to tire out

then create a stampede. The plotters am.la

It requires the moit extraordinary exertion to
keep Turner s supporters in the legislature
in line. A good many of them hare political
foresight enough to see that the judga

the wisdom of continuing tho deadlock. Tbii
feeling among the Turner men causes Kair

caucuses, at which attempts are made to braco
up the members with stories of desertions
from tho Alien side. Tonight the followers of

the Alien men are demoralized and that Alieu

substituted as a candidate, but this tale is aa
false »IH the numerous other lies that
tho chief of the scuttiers is Inventing.
Auother canard is that the King county dele
gation will disintegrate tomorrow. These false
hoods are circulated to keep up the hope*
oi Turner and his sincere supporters for the
time being, and thus prevent Allen from secur
ingenough of their votes to end the struggle.
W ho the plotters propose to put forward when,
til the course of their desperate scheming, they
are ready to apply tho knife to Turner ia

that Miles C. Moore's choice ia him
self. In nutting the final selection of
a legatee *>f the Turner political estate there
Will be a chance of a falling out oi the bucca

Moore on the ground of his well-known
lack of availibility. It ia re
ported that tomorrow the men who
profess to be lriendly to Turner
but are really couspiring against him will put
out a feeler by giving a new rntiu a vote or two
to ascertain if any of the Allen meu are ready
to break. l'tiis policy will ha kept up

the situation for their great stroke. It is talked
tonight that Z. J. Moore, oneot the gpokane

senator Sargeant returned from Buckley today.
He was approached by Turner,who solicited the
senator's support. Sargeant reminded the judgo
that at a meeting of the fierce County
Republican mem tiers in T acorn a some weeks
ago Turner ha 1 induced them all to agree to go
into a senatorial caucus. Turner replied that
lie had changed his mind about the desira
bility of a caucus since that time.
To this Sargeant answered that he had not
changed, aud that the judge had never in
formed him that his desire for a caucus had
cooled 09. He further informed the judge that
he would not, under any circumstances, vwta
lor him.
Govuor Teats, the Populist candidate for sena

porters and thanking them for their Totes re
leased them from the obligation to stand by him

LAI'OHTON'S I KIEND9 FOR TPBSICIt
••Judge" Mcßrlds Controls Huril'i Votn
—Nerd of s Constitutional Amrudiuent
OLYMPIA, Jan. IS.—[special.)—Morrison of
King has introduced a bill providing for tha
submission of an ameudment to the constitu
tion by which the governor will be em|>owero:
to appoint superior CDurt judges where vacan
cies exist, to serve until the second Monday in
January following the next geucral election.
As the constitution now stauds the executive
can appoint a judge to serve only until the tii;i
of the succeeding general election, thus caus'i
a short term or interregnum lietween electa,
day and the time at which cfliceis chosen at
ttat election take their seats.
Skagit county furnishes a case In point. When
that county was made a judicial district, Laugh
ton, then acting governor, at the solicitation of
Jimmy Powers, appointed Judgo Mcltride. H.s
term under the constitution expired at the gen
eral election. He made a combination by which
E. C. Million, a Democrat, was elected to tho
short term between the election aud second
Monday in Jauuary. and he himself was elected
for the four-year term commencing January ft
Judge Mcltride improved the interregnum by
comiug here to lobby lor Turner, explaining, in
palliation of this unusual conduct, that
as ho was not at that time ou
the bench, he had no judicial ermitio
to be soiled. After January 9, when ha again
became a judge de facto, he arrived at the con
clusion that bis ermine could not bo soiled by
any Contact, no matter how vile, aud his gar
ments have bien hung In the Moor j-Fair weather
chsruel-nouse when not aired in the smoke*
laden lobby of the Hotel Olympia aud whisky
tainted barrooms. He is the self-constituted
guardian of Representative Hurd, of Skagit
county, and takes great credit to himself for
persuading hint to stand out against the will of
the majority of his party.
While the l uruer men are howling themselves
hoarse over the number ot Federal officeholders
who are interesting themselves in Senator Al
iens re-eiectiou, and they include iu their ficti
tious list P. C. .-nil. van, who resigned his office
some lime ago, aud liyron Barlow aud others
who never held a i'e ierul office, it may be pro(«r
to call attention to the fact that the appointees
of Charley Laughton are here thicker than flies
on a bot>tailed bull, one and all striving t»
thwart the will of the majority, and to proloug
the contest in the vaiu hop-) that Judge Turner
mav putt the chestnuts out of thti euihess of
strife for one of th. lr own class
