Special DL<pateh to The Chicago Tribune
CINCINNATI, O., March G.-Present indications
are that Theodore Thomas connection with the
College Of Music will terminate much sooner
than he intended. In his letter of resignation
was clause imputing to the managers evasion
and Misrepresentation in their treatment of his
demands. This remark madc the Directors angry,
and their reply accepting his resignation is
couched in sharp terms. 1t sa IS his language
townrd them Is such as to preclude all further
discussion and hints that he had better 60 at
once, and not wait for the expiration Of the year
In October.
So far as the present Board is concerned, there
is no possible hope Of reconciliation. and, unless
the control of the college changes hands through
the purchase OF controlling share Of the
stock by Mr. Thomas friends, the late
Director will be on his way
to New York III a few weeks. 4 movement to
secure controlling amount Of stock, and over
rule the present Directors Is under way but its
success is doubtful. The present Directors are
Reuben Springier, Gen. 4. T. Goshorn, and e1-
Gov. J. D. Cox, three men in.whom the public
have the highest confidence.
Popular sentiment still runs strong In favor of
Thomas, but there seems to be no way in which
it can find expression in anything more than
talk.

A very important question is to be decided by
Judge Drummond, Tucsday,-no less d one than,
ttDoes tho United States statute in relation to

with the result Of q local election held in the
Town Of Elgin last Monday, wherein the ques
ton at stake was TINT Of high or low license.
The candidates for Mayor were E. S. Joslyn in
support Of low license, and Frank Baroth, on
the side of the high figure The contest wills
sharp one, as the forces were about evenly bal
auced, and every known means WAS resorted to
by each side to win the day. Prominent on the
side OF high license was H. Lee Borden, who is
In charge of the milk-condensing works at
Elgin.. The result Of the ballot was that high
License carried the day, and Baroth was elected
Mayor as the exponent Of that idea-
Yesterday JosIyn, with james Coleman, who
had been retained by the saloonkcepcrs, APP
poured before Commissioner Hoyne in this city
and requested a warrant to issue for the arrest
Of Borlen for a violation of the United States
Election lev: They made affidavit that Borden

men TINT they would be discharged unless they

The application for a warrant WAS based On
Sec. 5,5Us of the United States Revised Statutes,
which WAS enuctcd ut about the same time as the
Fifteenth Amendment, Ms IN additional safe
guard for an unrestricted suffrage. The section
IN question is MS follows:
LIVERY person who prevents, hinders, con-
trols or intimdAtes another from exercising or
in exercising the right Of suffrage, to whom that
right is guaranteed 10y the Fifteenth
Amendment to the Constitution Of the

of employment OF occupation. or Of ejecting
such person from rented house, lands. or other
property, or By threats of refusing to renew
leases or contracts for labor, or BY threats Of
violence to himself or family, shall be punished
as provided in the previous section"
The previous section referred 10 Is one which
prohibits any one from interfering with any
voter. or preventing such voter exercising the
right Of suffrage. The penalty is fine Of not
more than $500, Imprisonment for not less than
six months nor more than one year, or both.
