Rumors Regarding weyIer.

NEW YORK. March ia special to the
World from Barcelona says: For forty
eight hours false news of a postponement
or the belligerency resolutions in Congress
wa5 uncorjradicted here. This was either a
government or stock exchange maneuver.
The report Is generally current here that
there is serious thought of recalling Weyler,
ewing to discomfort over the slow progress
ne is making. 1t is believed, however, that
the report is premature and recall impossible
at present, as the nation would regard his
recall as a concession to the United States.
Weyler Is popular here. He is a pronounced
Republican.

Democratic Split in Brown County.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
NASHVILLE, Ind, March I4.-Yesterday
was the day on which the Democratic coun-
ty ticket was made in this county. The con-
test was for treasurer, there being two can
didates, William s.. Walker, the defeated
candidate OF two years ago. and Isaac Tabor,
ex-trustee OF Van Buren, township. This
has been the most bitter fight which has
ever been made in this county. Everything
which could be used in a mud-slinging cam
paign has been resorted to. There have been
charges and countercharges made by friends
of each candidate. Tabor was arrested the
first OF the week for horse racing on the
public highway. There were affidavits made
another place at the time he is charged
with racing. But all that could not prevent
Tabor's nomination by about two hundred
majority. Walkers friends are now claim
sioners are renominated and the Republic
ans are confident that they can defeat the
larger part of the ticket.
Money has been used in this county for
several years in primaries, but never until
now has such desperation been shown. The
Democratic party in this county has been
its one thousand majority In 1876 and 1878,
has dwindled until they despair OF electing
the entire ticket this fall. The failure OF
the party was shown on Feb. %, when they
has been counted a Prohibitionist for the
last ten or twelve years. The party is
slightly divided on the money question, the
free-silver element being largely in the ma
jority, and doesn't hesitate to say it is to
be free silver this fall or nothing. They Sc
lected their delegates to the several conven-
tions yesterday. and the delegates are for
silver or nothing. The county is several
thousand dollars in debt. and there have
been bond issues this winner amounting to
thousands. which the people are very angry

As the case is not set for trial until the

of South Dakota, sending greetings to
the Populists of Nebraska The tele-
gram was received with cheers and a
motion was promptly made and hur-
riedly carried that the secretary reply,
returning greetings.
Senator Allen moved that the reply
should present the compliments of the
Nebraska Populists and say they are
for Bryan for the next president. He
then made his position very plain and
made no effort to conceal the fact that
he was for the endorsement of the
Democratic candidate, first, last and
always. There was spirited opposition,
but it was overwhelmed. The roll was
called after considerable delay. The
result was 699 for Aliens motion to
