WANT TO BURN VIENNA.
Anarchists Blamed with Being the Az

Anarchists Blamed With Being the Ar-
thors Of Many Incsndiary Fires In That
City.
VIENNA. April ll.-Since the fire in
the Ringstrasse on Thursday night, the
fifth of the series Of incendiary fires that
had then occurred in Vienna within a
week, the fremen have been kept busy
responding to alarms in various parts of
the city. Extraordinary vigilance has
been observed, and has resulted in the
fires being discovered in their incipicncy
and extinguished before any material
damage was don All those fires gave
evidence of being of incendiary origin,
and no doubt is entertained that
they were the work of anarchists or cx.
IRENE socialists, between whom it would
be hard to distinguish difference. The
general feeling of uneasincss and inse-
curity continues to grow and great
number Of the residents of the city have
employed private watchmen. Many
people, among whom are some police
officials, believe that the incendiarism
is not SO much for the purpose of caus.
ing terror among the upholders of law
rs it is for the purpose of robbery.
Vienna Is not the only place that is
in q state of excitement because of in.
cepdiary fires. at L.onfclden. in upper
Austria, there have been several fires Of
this kind within the past few days and
the people are very indignant. 1t will
go hard with the incendisries il they
are captured.

CHICAGO, April ii.-Yice Presider,

tically determined At . meeting Of re-
publican party magnates Ia Chi

Gresham, 1t Is said. aud others. partici-
pated In the conference, which took
place NJ the Grand Pacific hotel
Morton the Man.
While every precaution was taken 10
prevent the fact Of the meeting being
made public, enough was ascertained
of what took place TO warrant the an
nouncement that the political man
ayers OF tho northwestern states
viii within the next week secure
the delegates from that section OF
the country for the denomination of
Mr.. Morton. Those closeted talked
over the whole situation SO far as the
republican national nominations are
concerned. and they agreed that it
would not be wise TO nominate . west
ern man for the vice presidency with
Harrison. Of Indiana, as the candidate
for president On the contrary, they
concurred in the opinion that an east
ern man should be taken for the second
place.
Senator sawyer's View.
Senator Sawyer expressed the views
of the whole party in saying: II think
the vice president should be taken from
New York again, and don't see any
>eason why we should not renominate
Mr. Morton. He is in favor with the
party all over the country and he
would make an admirable president in
case President Harrison should be in.
capacitated from any cause"
The Suggestion Adopted.
To this suggestion there was no dis
sent, and it was tacitly agreed, without
the formality Of motion or vote, to
carry the northwest in favor of it and
in opposition to any proposition TO put
another name on the ticket.

ing OF the state convention May 5.
Allison Not q Candidate.
There was a report that the lows re-
publicans would contend for the nomi-
nation of Senator Allison for vice presi-
dent to meet the possibility of the
selection of Gov. Boies for the same
place by the democrats, but he assured
his conferrees that Iowa would be all
right without his name on the ticket,
and he will so tell his friends who are to

GUTHRIE. O. T., April ll.-As the
time for the opening of the Cheyenne
and Arapahoe country approaches the
crowd of settlers preparing to enter in
eresses- The arrival OF every train de-
posits host of newcomers. This place
is about so miles from the line Of
the new country. but upon account OF
its being easy Of access and affording
superior accommodations to the small
border towns, it is made an Quitting
point for large number of the intend
ing settlers
turbed by the rush and rattle of com
merce upon the streets. All shops
and stores have been kept
open In order to supply the
boomers. Gradually the settlers
are procuring outfits and supplies,
and one by one the white topped can
vases move forward 10 enter the line
Of march for the promised land. Some
have imported blooded horses by whose
aid they hope TO attain priority in the
settlement and occupation of choice
quarter sections.
Large numbers of negroes are among
the intending settlers. 4. p. McCabc
(colored), ex-auditor of Kansas, is here
engaged in procuring the immigration
of his people To this territory. For
many months he has had his emissaries
at work in the south proclaiming
the advantages OF Oklahoma, and
offering special inducements to get
them to settle in this country where, as
his agents proclaim, each of them will
be given farm of 100 acres by the gov
ernment- He has alrrady had plated,
laid of into lots and sold to his people
for town sites q quarter section
of land in Payne county, and
another near Kingfsher Their
number is constantly increasing,
and they will be no small faction in the
settlement of the new lands. Many are
almost entirely destitute, making the
entire distance from points in southern
Arkansas, Mississippi and Texas on
foot, and upon their arrival here are de-
pendeat upon the charity of their more
fortunate neighbors.
KISsFIsHEE, o. T.. April 11.-United
States Marshal Grimes and special
agents Of the interior department are
in close consultation with Gov. Seay.
who arrived here Sunday evening. The
conference is in reference to the formal
opening of the county seat town
sites in the new county. Ills currently
reported that the governor, who is to
open the town sites by proclamation,
will issue proclamation simultaneous
ly with President Harrison's opening
the territory to settlers.
The cold, heavy winds which prevailed
all Sunday have caused considerable
suffering among women tad children
camping in the less protected places
along the streams, especially to the
men in line before the United States
land office, who have absolutely no pro-
lection from the cold blasts and blind
ing sandstorms.
