THEY TOOK A TUMBLE.
Chicago Aldermen Come to
Their Senses.
George B. Swift Quietly Elected
Mayor Pro Tenn by an Over
Whelming Majority.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-The wrangle over
the election OF mayor pro TEN was
settled tonight by the choice of Alder
man George B. Swift, he receiving 62
votes to 5 for Alderman McGillen, one
blank being cast. The Democratic al
dermen who met early in the day but
were unable to get quorum owing to
the absence of the Republicans, re-
mained in the council chamber until
the time OF the regular meeting this
evening, in order to keep McGillen,
their man, in che chair on the plea that
the original meeting of which he was
chairman had not adjourned.
The Repu blicans who had been
secreted in room square from the
city hall to keep out of the clutches Of
the sergeant at arms. marched over at
80 this evening. The leaders OF both
factions quickly got together, and it
was decided to avoid repetition Of
Saturdays scenes. Everything was
wiped off the slate and a new vote
taken. McGilen was chosed chairman
on the motion OF Republican alder
man. He appointed the same tellers as
on Saturday and ballot was taken.
When the court was completed it was
found that some facetious alderman
had cast two votes, so the ballot was
thrown out and another was taken with
the result as above. Swift was then
sworn in. A special election for mayor
to fill out the unexpired portion of
Carter Harrlson's term will be held
next month.

SAN DIEGO, Calf, Nov. 6.-The San

day filed in the Office of the county re-
corder bond mortgage to the Metro
pol1tan Trust Company of New York as
trustee to cover an issue of $4,000, 900
twenty year six per cent interest bear
ing bonds, limited in issue to twenty
thousand dollars per mile for each mile
of railroad constructed.
President Carlson being interviewed
said: "When ten miles of the rail-
road is built the Metropolitan Trust
company will issue to the company
5000, 900 worth of bonds upon which a
loan OF 100000 has been arranged for
and with this money another ten miles
will be completed, when another issue
of $2O0,O00 be made and thus the road
be built in blocks of ten miles each
through to Phoenix, Ariz., by way of
Yuma.
"Over five miles of road are now grad
ed and over three miles of track laid.
Work is going forward rapidly. Nearly
1000 of San Diego's citizens have pledg-
ed to pay dollar per mile each, as fast
as the road is graded. With this local
aid the completion of the first ten
miles is assured, when the funds from
the bonds become available"

New York, Nov. 6.-The Herald's
La Libertad, Honduras dispatch says
Honduras fired upon the American flag
this morning, by the alleged orders of
President Vasquez and by the express
command of the commissioner of the
port Of Anapola. Several shots we're
fired after the Pacific Mail Steamship
Costa Rica flying the stars and stripes,
as she steamed away because she re-
fused to surrender one of her passengers
to the Honduras government. United
States Minister Baker was on board the
Cost. Rica at the time.
The passenger about whom the
trouble arose is P. Bonilla, who recently
led revolution in Honduras but was
defeated by General Vasquez. He fed
to Nicaragua and decided to leave there
in order to relieve the government
from all responsibility. He sailed from
Nicaragua. Minister Baker and one
hundred other passengers were fellow
passengers. They arrived yesterday at
Amapala the port of entry of Honduras
Ou Glt dCluC COdsG III blo dlbtTuOOu. =.
Com mander of the Port Villa demanded
that Captain Dove shonld surrender
Bonillez. When the request was re-
fused threat was made to sink the
ship and it is asserted that President
Vasquez had given orders to that
effect. Villa was incensed at the re-
fusaI to surrender Bonilla and gave
orders to fire on the ship at nightfall
when lit was too dark to leave with
safety.
The government officers came on
board at 8 80 this morning saying new
orders were received from the president
insisting on the delivery of Bon1lla or a
bonn bardment on the ship. Capt. DOVE
replied that the commander of the port
would receive an answer in half hour
but before time expired he sailed away.
Several shots were fired after the Costa
Rica, although carrying the American
flag. One shot struck her doing nc
damage. but it is feared the steamship
Gala of the same line which was lying
in the port may have been injured for
the firing continued some time after
the Costa Rica was out of danger.

building may be said to be practically
under roof. Only the glass for the sky
light is missing and this will be in place
in few days. The roof of the Horticul-

derstood it will not take long to put this
in place.
Another week Of good weather will
put the Manufacturers building under
cover. So there need be no fear that
the buildings will not be ready in time.
The most notable progress made during
the past week has been in connection
with the Administration building,
which has risen two stories in height
during eight days. The various conces-
sionaires are also making rapid pro-
gress.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6-Ele ction 8
throughout the country tomorrow are
awaited with great interest by public
men in this city who see in them an
indication of the result of the presi-
Dental election in 1896. Politicians are
looking upon the elections not as being
an endorsement of the democratic
party or rebuke. but as an indication
of public feeling. Viewed from a
Washington standpoint the elections
are interesting as presenting the
thought of the people on multifarious
questions without involving anything
of fresh political significance.
Secretary Lamont left for New York
this evening where he will vote to-
morrow. Assistant Hamlin of the
treasury department left this evening

LIBERALS ALARMED.
Presbyterian Capitalization of
Power.
Rigid Action In the Late HereSy
Cases Creating a
Revolt.

By the Associated Press
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov. 6.-About
fifty of the most prominent Liberal
ministers of the Presby 5erian church in
the large cities will meet in Cleveland
on Wednesday to decide upon policy
for the future.
The circular which called the meeting
says: The present condition of the
Presbyterian church occasions deep
solicitude and calls immediate and seri-
GUS consideration. Many ministers and
elders view with apprehension the
tendency to an assumption and central
ization Of power and disposition both
to impose practical dogma without due
constitutional process and to treat the
formal action and overtures of the
Presbyteries with small respect. They
fear lest a reasonable tolerance and
liberty of opinion hitherto enjoyed un-
der these standards shall be abridged
and that not few devoted Office
bearers shall be crowded out OF good
ecclesiastical standing or even out OF the
church.
In this state of affairs it will not
answer for loyal Presbyterians to be in
active Or Indifferent. We cannot afford
to be silent under implied suggestions
OF heterodoxy nor seem to acquiesce
passively in the arbitrary assumption
OF rigid exclusiveness and unconstitu-
tional procedure. We must not suffer
worthy brethren to be forced needlessly
to leave the church.

jority for Governor Mckinley. The
weather today is favorable and the out
look for tomorrow is good. The Demo-
Gratis expect to carry this county and
Cuyahoga for the legislature. In this
county there is reason for this in the
fact that an Independent ticket has

latest information was that King Lobe
gulas twas not fugitive, but still hostile.
According to Mr.. Buxton, the war can
not be said to have ended and no action
taken on the case will prejudice the
government final decision as to the
future of Matabele land. Gladstone said
the government had no intention of set
ting apart day for the discussion of
the Matabele question as Labouchere
had proposed, whereupon Labouchere
said he would soon take steps to obtain
a day.
Sir Edward Gray, replying to Sir
George Baden Powell, regarding the
seizure of the Henrietta in Behring sea,
said the government had filed protest
against the action of the United States
authorities.
Gladstone, replying to John Red
mond's question, said the government
felt it to be its duty to continue the bus
mess of the present siJtings on the
parish council bills and the employers
liability bill as we'll as the final disposi-
tion of bills passed during the earlier
portions of the session. The govern
ment proposed to reserve the power OF
taking up any non-continuous bills, if
there was pressing necessity for 30 do

the house to so do.
The premier then reminded Mr.. Red

SAN Francisco, Nov. 6.-An initial
move for reducing the overland passen-

Bissell and G. H. Speers, local agents of
the Santa Fe, accompanied by H.
Thompson, the Los Angeles agent OF
the same company, called on the off

and made an official request for an
action looking toward the lowering OF
passenger rates to eastern points. No
understanding in regard to the pro.
posed rates was reached.
The reduction recently made by the
Canadian Pacific is said to be the cause
of the movement for lowering rates
among other lines.

independent and unprejudiced opinion

But careful canvass among politicians

tipping toward Republican success. The
main fight is over the election of gov.
ernor, and as the candidates, John E.
Russell, Democrat, and Frederick 7.
Greenhaige, republican, are equally
popular, the fight is largely on party
lines. Both the old parties have been
working as never before. The Repub-
lican state committee announced a re-

any case of illegal voting. Populists
have been saving wood but not saying
much and everyone who has given them
a thought think they will make SUBJ

parties. Prohibitionists are not seriously
taken as an eventful possibility.
