Sherman, lieutenant governor of Illinois, has been appointed a member of the Spanish treaty claims commission at a salary of 34090 per annum. He accepts the vacancy caused by G J Diekema's election to Congress. The commission is led by former Senator Chandler of New Hampshire. Sherman has the backing of Senators Cullom and Hopkins. The office of lieutenant governor pays 1000 a year, so this post offers far greater remuneration and international importance. He is a cousin of former Gov Richard Yates and has lived in Sinnels since 1859. Yie was admitted to the bar in 1879 and began law practice in Macomb in 1882, later serving as city attorney and judge of McDonough county. In 1896 he entered the legislature and served four terms, was Speaker of the Forty‑First and Forty‑Second Assemblies, and in 1904 was elected lieutenant governor.
