THE MICHIGAN VOTE.
Burrows Successor Gets a Great
Reduced Majority.

Reduced Majority.
DETROIT, April 2.-Today's reports
of yesterdays election show a steady
increase in the Republican majority
for justice of the supreme court and
regents of the university. 1t is now
believed that Moore Rep.) is elected
supreme justice by 10000, but so little
interest is taken that little effort is
being made in most of the counties
to obtain complete returns.
The main interest centers In the
Third congressional district, consist
ing of Kalamazoo, Eaton, Calhoun,
Branch and HilIsdale counties The
latest returns here indicate the election
of Mines (Rep.) by from LOCO to 1,3OO
majority over Todd, candidate of the
four other parties. julius C. Burrows
won in this district in 1894 by over
$1,000. The Republicans have held their
own, generally speaking, in the city
and township elections.
The Tribune will say: practically
complete returns from every county
in the state indicate that Judge Moore's s
plurality will be nearly $1,000. The Re-
publican candidates for regents may
run LOCO or so ahead of this. c.. H.
Hackley evidently leads his ticket. In
complete returns on the amendment
to increase salaries of state officers
shows that it has been defeated by a
decisive majority, in many sections of
the state aggregating fully two-thirds
of the total vote cast. In the Third dis
trict congressional contest practically
official figures place Lieut.. Gov. Mines
majority over Todd at 1,628. In the
Tenth district senatorial contest c.. w.
Smith Rep) has won by 2,O5S plural

who accompanied w. II. Fisher, late
manager of the Duluth IL Winnipeg
road, J.. A. Bowman, Il Grand Rap
ids banker, and others, to Nene-
Zuela, some time ago. have returned.
The party went down to examine the
country with view to the improve
ment of a valuable cuEcession made
by the Venezuelan government some
years ago, and which, through the
default of the original grantees, of
whom Mr. Bowman was one, and
changes in the government might
pass into new hands. Mr.. Grant says
that he was very much impressed
with the appearance of the country
so far as he had examined it. The
offered concession embraces a tract
of land near the mouth of the Ori-
noco river, running 125 miles north
and south of it, and extends from
fifteen to fifty miles east end west.
There is a vast amount of very fine
hard timber upon the land, COM
prising mahogany, dye woods, rose
wood, etc. There are numerous iron
mines there also. The soil is adapt
ed to any of the staple crops, such
as coffee, which is extensively v raised.
They now ship the mineral products
to the United States. The concession
also embraces Trinidad islanG with
its bituminous lake, and another
small island, on which is I, lake of
the same asphaltum pitch in ineX-
haustible quantities. 1t is probable
that a company, comprising the men
who went to Venezuela and some of
their Minneapolis friends, will take
up this concession, which the return
to power of the party originally
granting it allows, and will develop
it to the utmost. The Trinidad
island can hardly be delivered, how
ever, as it is owned and operated
by foreign companies already. The
wealth in minerals and timber is
almost incalculable. The govern
ment is offering everys inducement
for the introduction of Northern cap
ital. Probably, if these men take
up the concession, W. H. Fisher,
who is well known as for years man
ager Of the ST. Paul & Duluth road.
and later of the Duluth & Winni-
peg, will be manager.

Test of Strength.
WASHINGTON, April 2.-There
is a great deal more in the news from
Faribault of the grant of a conces-
sion by Venezuela at the mouth of
the Orinoco than is indicated in the
dispatch. This concession may be-
come more or less famous in the his
tory of the diplomacy of the United
States and Great Britain. The con-
cession is well calculated to bring to
an acute stage the most troublesome
diplomatic question before the state
department, and one which has
caused the administration more real
concern than the Allianca affair. the
late Guatemalan-MeX dispute and
other international episodes. The
concession is in the heart of the
territory long in dispute between
Venezuela and Great Britain. and
Ambassador Bayard for some time
has Vainly striven, in accordance
with a resolution recently adopted
by congress, to persuade Great Brit
ain to submit the whole dispute to
arbitration, Great Britain being will
ing only to arbitrate beyond what
is known as the Schomberg line.
There have been intimations that
the administration, in the event of
physical conflict over the disputed
lands, might deem it necessary. in
the enforcement of the Monroe doc
trine, to follow up the moral aid it
has rendered Venezuela with more
substantial and potent assistance
The fact that citizens of the United
States now, by this concession. are
thrust, so to speak, between Great
Britain and the United States, con-
siderably increases the measure of
this governments responsibility.
Senor Andrade, the Venezuelan min
lister at Washington, says he has no
official confirmation of the grant. but
admits that he does not doubt its
correctness, as it is in line with re-
ports that such concessions would
be made. The land included in the
concession is the vital point of con-
fiict between Great Britain and
Venezuela. The Orinoco is the great
commercial artery of South America.
running far inland through Venezu-
ella, Brazil and other countries. Who
ever controls the mouth, of the river,
Minister Andrade says, will control
this great commerce. Great Britain
has taken possession of Punta Ba-
rina, at the mouth, which is to the
Orinoco what the Island of Gibraltar
is to the Mediterranean. She has
also equipped naval station on
Trinidad island, just off the mouth.
Her claims embrace both banks of
the stream at that mouth. 1t is part
of this important strategic territory
that Venezuela now grants to United
States citizens. The concession near
Trinidad island is believed to be the
Island of Patos. It is very near to
the British naval station and par
ticularly rich in asphalt.
The present concession is the most
emphatic declaration of ownership
Venezuela has made since 1884. In
that year a concession was made to

PIERRE, S. D., April 2.-Several
days ago the sheriff of Jefferson
county, Wisconsin, came to this city
and secured requisition papers for John
Armstrong, a resident of Desmet, for
fraud in a horse deal in Wisconsin.
Before Armstrong could be got out of
the state affidavits were presented to
the governor stating that the charges
on which the requisition was asked
were not true in all particulars, and on
such representation the governor sus-
pended the requisition pending an in
vestigation, and Armstrong was re-
leased. Yesterday the Wisconsin sher-
iff secured Armstrong and attempted to
take him by force. At Brookings the
friends of both parties interfered, and
a rough-and-tumble fight ensued, re-
sulting in the arrest of the Wisconsin
sheriff on a charge of kidnapping. Gov.
Sheldon has written Gov. Upham a
statement of the case so far as the re-
QUESTION is concerned, and will take
necessary action as soon as all parties

PROHIBITION IN KANSAS
Wax the Dominant Issue-Latest
Returns.


KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 2.-To-
days municipal elections throughout
Kansas generally show victories for
Republican candidates by good major
tiles. The prohibition question was the
predominant issue, and in several in
stances politics were lost in the fight
for that principle. The Prohibition
candidates were generally on citizens
tickets and were successful as far as
heard from at 1:30 a. m. in the follow
ing: Sterling, Blue Rapids, Abilene,
independence and Hutchinson.
The Republicans carried their entire
tickets, with slight exceptions, in To-
peka, Wichita, Fort Scott, Concordia,
Yates Center, lola, Eldorado, Parsons,
Lawrence and Emporia. Atchison
elected Democrats mayor, but the
remainder of the ticket is Republican.
At Pittsburg and Pawrence the cleo
ton is claimed by both the Democrats
and Republicans.
In Kansas City, Kan, Twiss Rep.),
for mayor, will have a hard fight with
Sherman Qnd.), and the result will not
be known until tomorrow. The re-
maipder of the ticket is safely Repub-
lican.

j. L. Forkner, of Des Moines, saloon
keeper, held the mulct liquor law, sup
Elementary to the state prohibitory
law, to be constitutional. The main
point of the opponents was that the law
was the delegation of legislative power
to the people contrary to the constitu-
tion.= The court holds that no such
power was delegated. The law is Of
general application and license is
granted by city council in the exercise
of ordinary police power. The fact
that the consent of the interested resi-
dents is necessary does not constitute
legislation. The court holds that the
mulct law is bar to proceedings
which may result in fines, but does not
remit them when imposed where the
law is not in operation.
