YORK, March 5.-President
eBrayton Ives has officially. in behalf of
the directors of the Northern Pacific
Railroad company, asked the bOndhOld-
efs of that company to withhold their
acceptance Of the agreement recently
promulgated by the committee claiming
to represent the consolidated bondhOd-
ers. and states four reasons for making
this request. Briefly these are: That the
publication of such an agreement is
premature; that the scope of the COM
mittee is too limited; that the conStitu-
ton Of the committee is unfortunate.
and that. apart from the foreign interest
hitherto represented by Mr.. Willard, the
committee owns and controls but a lin.

that while Northern Pacific earnings

He says also that this committee.

existing committees which represent

IOWA VOTES.
Many Towns Select Their City Or
fiCialS

DEs MONIES, To-, March 5.-Munic-
ipal elections were held In a number Of
cities throughout Iowa today. The
weather all over the state was extremely
disagreeable. and in most places the
vote was light. The Republicans made
gains in several cities that have been
steadily Republican, and in some others
gained slightly in councilmen. Their
largest gain was in Iowa City, where
they carried every ward but one.
In Cedar Rapids there was a spirited
contest, resulting in a victory for the
Democrats, they re-electing their mayor
by 500 majority, and electing all other
city officers save the treasurer. The
council stands four Republicans and
four Democrats.
At Muscatine the Democrats elected
the mayor and two out of four city Off
GERS. They also secured two of the four
aldermen.
At Burlington, as the result of a
Democratic split, Eugene Butts. Re-
publican, was elected mayor, and the
Republicans also secured three alder
men. Butts is the first Republican
mayor since 1856.
In the places heard from up to mid
night prohibition, or rather the queS
tion of modifying the present law, d0Gs
not seem to have played any part. Sew
eral points are yet to be heard from,
however.
At Sioux City the entire Republican
municipal ticket was elected by from
400 TO Goa gain over last fall.
Council Bluffs Republicans elect
mayor and nearly all other city officers.
The council will stand TWO Republicans
and six Democrats.
At Corning the Democrats elected the
mayor. and the Republicans captured
recorder, treasurer and two councilmen.

sale, and last call.

Hermann the Great attracted q
packed house at the Metropolitan opera
house last night. His performances
this year are giving most intense satis-
faction, and are by far the greatest he
has ever presented to the public. His
engagement is for three more perform
ance only, tonight, tomorrow matinee
and night.
Manager Scott announces for next
week the most gorgeous comic opera
production that he has ever given to
the public of this city-the Whitney
Opera company, i'll the great New York
comic opera 1.-The Fencing Master"
The company is headed by the famous
prima donna Miss Marie Tempest,
aided by number of most excellent
principals and a company numbering
sixty people in all. The sale of seats
for this big event opens at the box
office Thursday morning.
-
1t is not at all surprising that large
number of seats have been already sold
for the performance of "Niobe." The
acknowledged comedy success of last
season could hardly fail to do q good
business this, and particularly as the
piece continues under the same con-
scientlous management, and lis inter-
pretation remains in the hands of the
same competent artists. We are assured
that there has been no relaxation of at
tention even to the smallest detail,
5aI, &c, e..
has scored the first seasons success, and
the management start out OH the theory
that every dollar of expense saved is so
much made. MesSrs. Abbott and Til
lotson do not belong TO that class of
managers. as their thousands of friends
and patrons throughout the country
fully understand and appreciate.
"Niobe" will appear at the Metropoli-
tan next Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day.
Among the list of actors in the dra-
matte field of today no one can be found
better fitted to portray heroic characters
than Frank Losee. Endowed. as he has
been by nature, with not only a manly,
but an athletic figure, he adds to these
qualities voice that is strong ana we'll
modulated. and the use of which he has
carefully studied. Mr.. Losee is an
actor, and in saying this it is not meant
to convey the idea that person is en-
titled to be called such simply because
he can play part; an actor. in the true
sense Of the word. must be able to play
round of parts, and play them well.
Those who shine In single character
are but one-part players, and not actors.
Mr.. LoSee is this week giving the pa
irons of the Grand an excellent piece of
dramatic work In his characterization of
Jack Hearne in "Romany Rye" and it
is doubtful if better portrayal OF this
hero has ever been seen.
~
Next Sunday night the Grand will
present its first railroad play of the
present season, 1.-The Danger Signal"
which is story of railroad life, highly
einbellshed with the many effects char
acteristic of the phases of life on the
rail. The cast, in addition to the others
who will be seen, will present fat and
jolly Paul Dresser, that Goliath of COM
ediails, whose very appearance gives an
audience an excuse for merriment, and
whose conception of the part of PretZel
III 1.-The Danger Signal' is one of the
FUNNIEST in his long and successful
laugh provoking career.

sUsTAINs BOTH SIDES.
But the Great Western Keeps the
Cash.

Cash.
A decision has been made by Chair
man Caldwell, of tine Western Passen-
ger association. relative to the charges
filed by the Milwaukee against the CHI
cago Great Western regarding the
transportation of baggage of a detach-
ment of United States troops from Chi
cago to Fort Smelling. The matters
the chairman had to decide were:
First, the Justification of the Milwaukee
for the establishment of a rate of Sl.1O
per hundred pounds from Chicago to
Fort Smelling for the excess baggage of
the detachment of troops III question;
second, as to whether the Chicago Great
Western had violated the agreement.
The Milwaukee bid for the business on
the basis OF Sl.40 per hundred pounds
tor excess baggage-the understood rate
under the general rules. The Chicago
Great Western bid 81 10. computed on
the land gi ant Or net cash basis. AS to the
first point involved, Chairman Caldwell
decides that the course pursued by the
Milwaukee. twas, in his opinion, in ac-
cOrdance with the requirements Of the
agreement.and must therefore be justi-
fed" After an exhaustive review of the
second point i'll issue, Chairman Cald-
we'll says: I'VE believe that, as
measure of equality, non-land grant
roads are entitled to use basis of net
cash excess baggage rates, such as
already established. with respect to
transportation of the troops proper.
which. under the accepted basis of con-
struction of such rates, shall enable
them 10 compete at equal terms with
the land-grant roads, and we recon-
mend that the shedule of net cash rates
for transportation of United States
troops be amended at the earliest prac-
ticable moment, to include schedule of
such net cash rates on excess baggage"

AEEAIRS IN BRAZIL

1t is probable that the presidential
election which was held in Brazil last
week will mark the end of the revolu-
ton in that country.
Probably no public disturbance in any
country was more causeless than this
Brazilian affair. The people generally
were prosperous and contented under
the rule OF President Peixoto's govern
ment. The business interests of the
country were we'll cared for. But
certain faction, previously the recipients
OF official favOrs, had been practically
ignored by the president. Naval officers
ware not taken into the confidence of
the administration, and as consequence
they sought its overthrow. They. had no
following in army circles, and but little
among civilians. But they had posses
sion of the ships belonging to the gov
ernment, and they turned their guns
upon the capital. The bombardment of
Rio de Janeiro has been maintained
Spasmodically for six months past, but
little harm has been done except to i'm
pede the progress of business. A fe ~
land engagements have taken place,
invariably resulting in the discontinue
of the rebels. Many tons of powder
have been wasted to no purpose.
There has been an apparently we'll
grounded suspicion that the rebellion
was sustained in the interests of the
monarchical party. Where else than
from this source the sinewS of war were
procured has been mystery. The desire
n q nf i.a lnt tn
regain ''hiS own," as the phrase goes,
would induce him and his sympathizers
in Spain and Portugal to lend aid and
announcement to any movement haV-
ing for Its purpose the overthrow of the
existing order Of things. These have
probably furnished munitions of war; /;
for payment of their services the revo-
lutioniSts have relied upon the success
of their undertaking, just as shyster
lawyer sometimes relies upon his sue
; cess in desperate lawsuit for his COM
pensation.
The change in the Brazilian govern
ment brought about by the recent cleo
tion knocks whatever claim the revolu-
tionistS may have had upon public SYM
patty from under them. BY an al most
unanimous vote the people have decided
In favor of the maintenance Of the re-
public, and have placed its head man
whose craftsmanship and ability are
unquestioned, and who has beeu con-
nected with neither faction in re cent
political contentious. He is, however,
a man of courage and resources, and
will not be content, as Peixoto has been,
to remain on the defensive against the
public enemy. He will inaugur ate a
vigorous campaign both on land and
water, and with the resources at his
command will have little difficulty in
| sweeping the rebels from existence.
There will be reason for general sat
| isfaction when this farcical and ca USE
| less revolutian shall have ende d. There
| have been few tragedies connected with
it; the opera bouffe element has been
| predominant; yet it has caused CO H
siderable interference with trade and
commerce, and has been tolerated by
other nations too long. The course of
the new administration will be watched

mainder of his life to the upbuiiding of
this portion of the Christian edifice.
The GLOBE congratulates DR.. Tai
mage OH winning in SO hazardous
game. Of course there is little gained
by the maintenance of the Brooklyn
Tabernacle. 1t is like the Madison
Square garden-mereiy the resort of
crowds who wish to enjoy the sight of
freaks-a religious freak being the at
traction in the one case and ungodly
freaks in the other. But. like the gar
den, it is an attraction which should not
be allowed to pass from existence. The
show or exhibition there is one of the
great moral entertainments of the me-
tropolis. While people may derive but
little spiritual benefit from attendance,
they are out or mischief while there,
and may gain in knowledge and grace
by attendance.
Pastor Tdlmage will remain at the
tabernacle during a portion Of each

spices of literary clubs at the rate of

and able to build tabernacles of his

now almost millionaire. for he is
frugal in his expenditures, has none of
the expensive small vices of the ma
Jority of men, and can generally obtain

THE COMING PUG MATCH.


The Associated Press gives the public
a series of answers from the governors
OF twenty-nine states who were asked
the question whether they would per-
nit the Corbett-Jackson fight to take
place in their state.
The answers are all in the negative
save that of Gov. Nelson. of Minnesota.
He evidently does not believe in cross
ing bridge until he comes TO it, and
hence declines to say what he will do
until the pugs arrange to visit Mime
sofa.
While the Associated Press updoubt-
edly asked the question as a stroke of
news enterprise, it will nevertheless
afford the pugilists an opportunity to
select their trysting place, if such ex-
lists.
Possibly, in view of Coy. Nelson's
answer. they may select Minnesota. hut
if they should, it is safe to predict that
Gov. Nelson will be more decisive than
he was in responding to the question.
The troops" were once able to sup
press prize fight IN Minnesota-after
it had beer been abandoned. and it is
possible that Gov. NeIson might induce
them to nip it in the bud if he should
put on his regimentals and invoke the
cohorts of war to his aid.
Still there would be less anxiety felt
if he had been willing to give negative
vote to the news gatherer.

DEADWOOD ABLAZE.
One Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Dollars of ProDerty Lost.

DEADwooD. s. D.. March 5. - Fire
broke out here this morning about 6
o'clock in the Fashold saloon, and de-
stroyed all that portion of the city ly.
ing between the center of Main street
and Chinatown. There was no wind
blowing at the time or the whole city
would have been destroyed AS il Is
the best portion of the city is DESTROYED.
The loss Is roughly estimated at over
Sl5O.O00. The fire is now under control,
but every building from the Nye block
to Chinatown, on the West side, is
wiped out. The efforts of the firemen
were thwarted by lack of water in the
mains. 1t is SUPPOSED that one life was
lost in lodging house. A fireman
named Warner fell from ladder and
was badly hurt. Thlrty-two buildings
i'll all were destroyed. The lessees
were the largest losers, excepting Glib
Stone IL Co.. who owned their buildings
and let their insurance run out a short
time ago. A good many of the buildings
destroyed belong to Swift Bros, Of
Wilmington, Del. These will be re-
built with brick, as the locations are
good, and will readily command good
rents. The loss to the insurance COM
panies foots up S33.500. The total loss
by the fire will be fully S150,000.

ducks and twenty geese and swan. He
declined to speak about congressional
matters, and merely said that he ha d

Capt. Sester. As the tug approached
the lighthouse tender, the pres
ident, Secretary Gresham and
Capt. Evans craned their necks
for several minutes looking at

thought the matter might have been a
put-up job, but the reporters aver that
it was merely a coincidence.

TALMAGE'S BLUFF.

De Witt Talmage has evidently paid

had goodly share of worldly expert

Of bluff wins.
Some months ago the reverend gentle
man, after vainly endeavoring to induce
his congregation 10 pay off the debt with
which the Tabernacle church was handi-
capped, threatened to resign Its pasto-
rate unless the funds were forthcoming
by certain date. The bluff did not
work, whereupon he announced his
withdrawal from pastoral relations. AS

was great, ana Mr.. Talmage's salary
was heavy tax upon the congregation

to do SO, for many members of the

fatally, by robber this evening. Ribak
was closing his place for the evening
when the man entered and demanded
his money. "How much DO you want?u
asked the grOceryman in a joking way.
Il want it all, and id quick" said the
robber. %
Ribak was in front of the cash drawer
and tossed the man a bit. "Give all,T
demanded the robber, pressing his pis-

made move and the robber fired. Tha
bullet passed entirely through Ribak's
abdomen. The murderer grabbed ali
