WOOLLEY HAS A BEE.
Mock Presidential Election SyveHs
His Ambition.

HIS Am ton.
CHICAGO, Dec. pa presidential
election was held in town yesterday
which, in many respects, proved a re-
markable contest for supremacy. The
prohibitionists Of the city announced
several days ago that q straw ballot
would be taken at the Minnehaha club
rooms, 155 La Sale street, between the
hours of 8 a. m. and p. m. The result
was a feverish interest, which deyel-
oped a number of candidates. All day
long the enthusiastic admirers of John
G. Woolley, of Chicago; Eli T. Ritter, of
Indianapolis; DR.. Cranneld of Texas,
and other prominent opponents of the
cold water cause rallied at the polls in
behalf of their respective favorites. The
election was conducted on strict prohi-
bition principles.
A surprise was sprung at noon by the
appearance of number of women, who
voted solidly for Frances E. Willard
and launched her boom suddenly with
flying colors. Then the g6ntler sex,
with deep gratificat ton at being able to
cast a full fiedged vote, did some lively
electioneering, in which they appealed
to the gallantry of the masculine voters
Willard stock was in high favor at 2
o'clock, but the Woolley forces rallied
and buried the hopes of the loyal femin-
Unity beneath large stacks of Woolley
ballots. Persuasive eloquence was in
vain.
After 500 votes had been poked into
the ballot boxes, and the official count
was made, John G. Woolley, of Chicag go,
was found to have a large majority The
choice for vice president was Joshua
Levering.
1t is said that as a result of yester-
days triumph, Mr.. Woolley has been in
oculated with the virus of political am
bition and will enter the race for the
prohibition national nomination for
president.

BURNED TWO TO DEATH.
Unmasked Men Guilty of a Double
LynchinG.

LEBANON, KY, Dec. 29.-Within
two miles of this city last night a re-
lentless mob burned to death woman
and riddled with bullets a gray-haired
man, who was said to have paid her
too much attention. The corpses of
the victims-Mrs. Thomas West and
William Deveres-were found in the
ruins of the Woman's home today, by
the fourteen-year-old daughter of the
murdered man. The tragedy was one
of the most brutal ever enacted under
the gruesome sway of the dread Judge
Lynch. Despite the pleadings for her
fathers life. of a half-clad, frightened
child and the prayers and tears of the
i'll and helpless woman, the mob went
through its work, with cold-blooded,
cruel deliberation, and only left when
certain that both man and woman were
dead The child of Deveres, who was
a witness to the tragedy, is dangerous
ly i'll as the result of the fright and
exposure but upon her recovery she
may be able, it is hoped, to identify
some of the lynchers. The night was
brilliant with moonlight and the un-
masked faces of the members of the
mob should be easily identified.
Justice Nave late this afternoon held an in
quest upon the bodies of the victims. Sew
eral witnesses were examined, but nothing
tending to incriminate any one was developed.
The investigation will be continued tomor-
row. Deveres formerly lived in Knoxville,

In addition to the guarantee fund of

that this is the most central city for

conventions held here were those nomi-

1872, Hayes in 1876 and Hancock in 1880.

EXPECTS MORE OUTBREAKS.
Armenians Entrenching Themselves

LONDON, Dec. 30.-A dispatch to the
Times from Constantinople says: The
latest adVices from Zeitoun are that
the insurgents have been reinforced
by 500 men from Gurn, and have oc-
cupied new positions. Accordingly, the
dragomans of the powers went to the
porte and offered to negotiate a ca

respondent says:
In response to United States Minister
Terrells request to Consul Jewett at
Sivas that he should go to Marsovan,
Mr.. JeWett has wired that it is impos-
sible to leave, as another outbreak is
threatening.
The Graphic published a letter from
Lord RoSebery to a correspondent COM
menting upon England's inaction in Ar
menia, in which he says: 81 cannot be-
lieve that it means insincerity or in
capacity upon the part of a powerful
government. They must have encount-
cred obstacles of which we are ignorant
Perhaps they had to weigh the hideous

JOHANNESBURG,D Dec. 29.-The po-
count of the struggle of the British
in the Transvaal to obtain equal po
litical right with the Beers, and the
German and American inhabitants are
supporting the government. There are
persistent rumors of a secret arming
{ the miners and warlille prepara-
5ions, on account of which ladies and
children are leaving. Gen. Joubert
Commander-in-chief of the Transvaal
forces, has been summoned to Pre-
toria from Natal.
LONDON, Dec 3O.-The Times this
morning publishes long dispatches from
Cape Town, Paris and Berlin bearing
on the Transvaal question, which seems
to be displacing the Venezuelan ques-
tiOn in the public interest.
The Paris dispatch quotes the Debats
as saying: 1.-The London Times seems
to be ayenging itself on the Beers for
the moderate tone it was obliged to
adopt towards Uncle Sam" The De-
bats then proceeds to argue upon the
danger to French interests of allowing
England to seize the Transvaal.
A dispatch to the Times from The
Hague says that Hollands attitude on
the question is apparently one of in
difference.
The Berlin dispatch says: '"The ac-
ton of the Uitlanders in the Transvaal
has given rise to an unusually violent
explosion of anti-English feeling in
the German press.
The National Zeitung is quoted as fol-
lows: Germany, Portugal, and posi-
bly, France, cannot allow the Boer re-
public to become the exclusive prey
of England, and especially of such
dangerous parsonage as Mr.. Cecil
Rhodes
The Times also has a column article
explanatory of the Transvaal trouble,
which says: Equality of representa-
ton, with taxation, language, law, re-
sponsibility of the administration to
the legislature and the removal of re-
ligious disa bilities, are among the chief
of the Uitlander's demands, while they
desire to maintain republican institu-
tons"
An editorial in the Times complains
that the French and German press are
criticising England without properly
grasping the history or geography of
the question. The Times believes that
no desperate remedy, such as an appeal
to force, will be required. Some rea-
sonable CONCESSIONS it continues,
"even though not all that the Uitland-
ers might rightfully claim, might avail
to postpone a conflict
