Republicans Lost Heavily in the Municipal
Elections Yesterday.

Republicans Lost Heavily in the Municipal
Elections Yesterday.
Throughout Michigan and Ohio yes
terday elections were held in the prin-
cipal cities, and in almost every in
stance the republicans suffered heavy
losses. Michigan voted for a supreme
court justice and two regents of the
university of Michigan, ard all three
of the successful candidates were re-
publicans, though their majorities
were light. Long, for supreme judge,
carried the state by about 10000,
whereas McKinley's plurality in the
state last fall was $4,000. Pelasky,
Muskegan, Lansing, Benton Harbor,
Bay City and Lansing elected repub-
lican mayors, but by recuced major :
tiles as compared with the November
vote. In Battle Creek, Manstee and
Jackson the silver ticket was success
full.
In Ohio the republican loss was very
heavy. The dispatches say the result
gives the democrats control of most
of the machinery for the election
next November of state officers and
members of the legislature. Governor
Bushnell will stand for a second term.
Senator NJ. A. Hanna is the herepublican
candidate for senator, and John r.
Mclean the free-silver candidate for
senator.
Gustav FATAL was elected mayor Of
Cincinnati by 1920 plurality. The city
gave Mckinley 10000 majority last
fall. Cleveland went republican by
1000, falling off of the republican
vote of about 2700. Canton (McKin-
ley's home) Springfield, Akron, Co.
lumbus, Zansville, Hamilton and Ports
mouth all elected democratic mayors,
while the republicans carried Ironton,
Toledo and Steubenville. Mckinley
carried all these cities last fall.

HE MAY NOT BE SHOT.
Orders Have Come From Madrid to Spare
Rivera.

Orders Have Come From Madrid to Spare
Rivera.
NEW YORK, April ga World Ha-
vana special says:
The belief is that Rivera will not be
shot. An order is said to have come
from Madrid to spare his life. This is
not prompted from motives of hu-
manity, but to make good impression
upon the United States and other
nations. General Weyler is furious, it
is reported, and may cause the order
to be withdrawn, in which case General
Rivera would be put to death.
A World courier brings a report
from the insurgents that General
Rivera had received orders from Gomez
10 turn over his command to General
Roloff and he was about to report to
Gomez for other duty when he was
captured. That his capture was brought
about by treason is still suspected, but
Senior Jorrin is no longer accused. The
traitor is thought to have been petty
Weyler is evidently more anxious to
kill time than the rebels. A World
courier reports that the captain-general
remained aboard the steamer off Sagua
la Grande from March p to March 26,
during which time nobody was al
lowed to see him. Then he wasted two
days more ashore seeing no one. Gem
eral Weyler now is in Cienfuegos,
another comfortable city. There he
has discovered great corruption in
furnishing army supplies for paper
money. He has imprisoned leading
men and the chief of police and has re-
moved the governor.
1t is reliably stated that General
Weyler is seeing at Cienfuegos and
communicating with Cubans who are
plotting to get General Gomez in a
trap. General Gomez remains at Ar
royo Blanco, camping either at Santa
Teresa, Juan Criello, La Reforma or
Las Barracones. He stays west OF
Juacaro Moron trocha, but can pass it
with impunity. A family just crossed
it, cut down the wire and saw no
soldiers.
Word from Santiago province shows
that General Garcia is gaining victory
after victory. He has absolute con-

THE FIGHT AT AKRoTIRI.
Showed the Necessity For Disarming the
Moslems


Showed the Necessity For Disarming the
MosIems.
LONDON, April 4.-The News Canea
correspondent will say:
The Moslems advanced to within 200
yards OF the Christians at Akrotiri, on
Saturday, and began to parlay with
the leaders. Then suddenly along
both the Moslem and Christian lines
an almost simultaneous discharge oc-
Cured. The range was very short,
and the rattle of musketry developed
into regular roar. At first, the in
s,lrgents had the advantage, driving
the Moslem irregulars down the hill,
but the latter rallied, and, after a
fierce charge. drove the Christians
backward from their most advanced
point. where they planted a Turkish
flag, which is still floating. The fight
ing was stopped by heavy rain.
When the Moslerns returned to
Canea, The order had been given to
disarm them. At first they resisted,
but soon those who were disarmed
warned their comrades outside, so that
many of them hid their arms. Several
hundred rifles still remain to be col.
lected. The disarming of the irreg.
ular Moslems ought to have been done
long ago, for the Moslems were begin
ming to think that Europe had sent
the European forces simply to support
them against the Christians.
The!only regretable thing is that
the men-of-war did not she'll the Mos
lens when they attacked the Chris
tians, just as they have been shelling
the insurgents.

! against the execution of General Ruiz
Rivera, the Cuban leader, recently
captured by the Spanish. President
Mckinley and Secretary Sherman dis
cussed the case, and the latter, at the
presidents suggestion, communicated
with Senor de Lone, the Spanish min
lister, giving him to understand the ex-
ecution of Rivera would raise such in
dignation throughout the United States
as to embarrass the government. Senior
de LONE communicated the substance
of this informal protest to mis- govern
ment, and there are reasons for be-
lieving the Spanish authorities will

Mississippi River at st. Paul Registers
Sixteen Feet.
ST. PAUL, April 2.-The Mississippi
river has reached 16 feet and is still
rising slowly. This is the highest
point reached since the great flood OF
1881. The residents of the flats have
had ample warning to save themselves
and their property. Between Mime
apolis and St. Paul 1000 families have
been made homeless. They lived along
the riverside and in the lowlands.
Families that lived to the left of Inter-
urban bridge at Minneapolis have been
driven out and vast body of water
rushes over the spot where their homes
used to be. 1t has swept away many
houses.
On the west side the water is en-
croaching on the Robert-street bridge.
Only two streets in the fats are free
from water, and those only for three
squares. The water is coming up, and
gradually submerging all the lowlands.
Already 200 homes over there are under
water, and more disappear with each
succeeding pour.
Looking from the pier of old Broad
way bridge toward the south, the west
side looks like an immense lake, with
housetop sticking above the surface
here and there. Many of the resi-
dences further down are covered, and
the lake is floating full of all sorts of
household goods, fences. barn roofs
trees and lumber of all descriptions.
