His Duties the Police Board Not Ex-
act1y to His Liking.
Another change in the board of police
commissioners is likely to be made in the
near future according to a story which
was made public today.
1t was stated that Commissioner
Whiting, who was appointed to succeed
the late Col Sells as a member of the
board, is tired of his position aud the
trouble it gives him and will resign.
Commissioner Whiting when asked
about the matter said: "There is no
truth in the story whatever. | have no
intention of resigning and have not said
/ would resign. However, l will say
this. l did not want this position when
I was appointed a member of the police
board. but since l have accepted it l try
to do my duty; but L reserve the right to
resign at any time L may take a notion
to do So"
Although Commissioner Whiting de-
nies that he is to resign now, he quail
fies his denial with the statement that
he reserves the right to resign at any
time he may take a notion. Mr.. Whiting
it is said, finds that the position on the
police board interferes with his business
and requires a great deal more time than
he cares to give it. No one would blame
him if ho should decide to let some one

BY JUNE FIRST.

POpulist State Central Committee Here
to Call the State Convention.
The Populist state central committee
is in session in Chairman BreidenthaPs
office.
The committee meets to fix the date of
holding the state convention, though
there is little doubt that the date has
been already agreed upon.
ALI the state officers who will talk at
all say that there will be an early con-
vention.
Chairman Breidenthal will say roth
ing about the probable action of the
committee, and the members are very
careful not to talk for publication.
prominent character about the state
house today was Warden Chase of the
state penitentiary He spent considera-
bic time in conference with the state Of
fcers. He is here to see that an early
convention is held. When asked about
the action of the committee he simply
said, "There will be an early convention" /"
Auditor Prather said: 81 am in favor
OF an early convention. L believe in be-
ing aggressive and beginning the fight
early. 1 think the convention will be
held about June ~
The general impression is that the
convention will be called for May % or
81 at Salina, with the latter date most in
favor.
There is some opposition to an early
convention but it does not come from the
state house. 1t comes from the anti
fusionists who believe it best to let both
parties make their nominations and
then nominate a complete ticket un-
hampered by pledges or promises.
The members of the committee are:

Davis, secretary; First district, L. ID.

Many Friends Present Despite the Pri-
vIcy of the Ceremonies.
The funeral services over the remains
of the late Chas. +. Kendall occurred
yesterday afternoon at the Copeland
hotel parlors. Although the widow OF
the deceased requested that the funeral
be private, there was a very large num-
ber of friends to pay their last respects
to the dead.
If the notice had not been given that
the funeral would be private, it would
have been the largest funeral that has
occurred in the city for several years.
1t was also requested that no flowers
be sent, but beautiful flowers completely
covered the casket The coffin was "a
very handsome one, draped, and with
silver trimmings.
Rev. Dean Millspangh conducted the
service. The following were the pail
bearers: Messrs. p. @. Noel, w. A l.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April 23.-The
much talked of international boat race
between the champion college crews of
this country and England, which has been
discussed each season for so many years,
is, according to current report likely to
take place this year. The story goes out
that Oxford has sent word to Yale and
Harvard that she would be glad to race
in England in September the winner of
the Yale Harvard race.
The proposition is that the American
crew shall go to England in August and
the race will be r0wed on the Thames
soon after practicable.
In order to bring about a race it would
be necessary for the Englishmen to re-
main in training three months longer
than usual, but they say they are willing
TO do this.

SEATTLE, Wash, April 23.-The indus
trial army now has nine hundred and
forty recruits enrolled in ten companies,
and expects to make a start for Washing
ton on Wednesday.
Several citizens are agitating the ques-
tion of raising money enough to charter
a through train for the army, and to send
them on without single stop. In con-
sequence Of a report that the mem bers
of the army have been asked to go to work
on the Great Northern road, resolutions
were adopted by the army today that in
case of a strike on any railway the army
will uphold the American Railway
union, and that any one who accepts
work on such railroads will be dishonor-
ably discharged.
General Shepard will divulge his plans
for moving on to Washington at a public

they were ordered to give up their
badge and leave.
When the little scene was over, Col.
Spead, who is extremely popular, with
the Sacramento division, began an adj
dress. He was deeply affected as he
told the men of his deep sympathy for
them. ''But men do not count in such a
movement as this" he declared 'It is
the principle to which men must be sac
rifced- l know and love every one of
you, but i must leave you and go on"
Then came the parting. Spead extend
ed his hand and with tears streaming
down his sunburned cheeks said broken
ly ''good bye boys"
They shed Tears.
The men rushed forward and with wet
eyes and in broken voices bade their
chief farewell.
"We will follow you colonel" they
said, ''but we have been unjustly
treated"
When the last farewell was said, Spead
turned away with his handkerchief to
his eyes and walked down the bluffs
band with flag and banners lowered
watched him as he left them. many of
the men sODbing aloud At last Captain
Moss stepped before the men and asked
if they were willing to follow him on
east.
'Col. Spead will bring Kelly around"
he said. ..and we will be back in the army
before tomorrow"
After brief consultation the men de-
clared their willingness to go, and gave
three rousing cheers for Spead, marched
along the bluff past the army, down up
along the wagon road, and started up the
ST. Paul railroad tracks for AvOca, where
the army was to spend the night. After
the excitement attending the incident
had subsidized, Kelly marshaled his
troops and the march to AvOca began.
On the Road to AvOca-
Avoca is eighteen miles from Nicola.
The farmers OF the surrounding country
had provided about 100 wagons and the
greater part of the men were carried.
One or two companies were compelled to
go afoOt and the depOsed Colonel Baker
Joined the ranks in one of these along
ously cheered and every mile or so farm
ers met the ranks with wagon loads of
provisions for the army.
1 he day was bright and warm and good
time was made. Dinner was taken In d
pretty grove about nine miles from Nicola
and the army reached Avoca about on
time.
The industrials received an ovation as
they marched into the town and were
well provided with ratiOns. The st.
Paul road began running trains into
Council Bluffs today, but no attempt to
seize "A train was made. The march over
land will be continued quietly until De5
Moines is reached, but there the men
are certain they will secure a train. Re-
ports to the number of men in the
army have been conflicting as on the
march many sympathizers haved march,
ed with the men, that correct count
was impossible.
General Kelly today showed his roll
calls to an Associated Press representa-
tive. They showed that 1866 men
into Nicola yesterday; that
twenty recruits were secured at that
place and with the fifty men who were
discharged today, that 1880 men, excIu-
sive Of officers, reached Avoca Many
men who have attempted to enlist have
been refused, owing to the belief that
they were tramps, but Kelly says that he
will take 5000 out of Chicago when he
leaves there for Washington.
