AFTER CITY OFFICIALS
Omaha's Police Board Charged With
 Aiding Gamblers.

Omaha, April "A sensation was sprung in Omaha today when articles of impeachment were filed with Gov ernor Holcomb against the Omaha fire and police commissioners. The members are Robert B. Herdman, James H. Peabody and D. D. Gregory of Omaha, who have been acting as members of the board since March. 1897.
 The articles are signed by Victor Rosewater, who represents lare ele- ment of the city which is dissatisfied with the commissioners work. Many affidavits accompany the petition, in which it is alleged the commissioners are in league with the gamblers, who have been permitted to ply their trade openly, that the the police force has been used by the board to advance their political interests, and that, as a result, the greatest demoralizatlon prevails among members of the force. and that in their weakened condition they are unable to cope with the nu- merous thieves and thugs who ply their trade throughout the city.
 The commissioners deny the charges and assert that it is the result of po- litical and personal animus. The trial is likely to assume sensational pro- portions, for if the governor refuses to call a trial he will be mandamused
 The specifications filed with the gov ernor cover quantity of matter whic1 if established will subject the board tt removal. This power lies wholly witf the governor, from whom there is n' appeal.

GERMAN SENTIMENT A Gradual Yeering in Favor Of
 the United States THE WEAKNESS OF SPAIN
The Cannamaba Affair Opened
 the Eyes of Germany
The Spanish Ambassador Given to Understand that Redress Must be Made for an Insurgsnt Outrage on German Residents.

Berlin. April 2.-The sentiment in Germany in official and unofficial cir cles early today was that the Hispano- American crisis has veered consider able during the course of the week, and is now decidedly more favorable to the United States. This, it is as serted, is partly the result of President McKinley's action and the conservative manner in which United States Min ister Woodford has dealt with the au- thorities at Madrid, and partly to the bitterness engendered by an alleged wanton attack of a band of insurgents upon the German sugar refineries at Cannamaba in Trinidad, in the prov ince of Santa Clara, and the murder of four persons connected with the re- finery, on March IS, which has taught Germany that the Spanish are unable to protect even the lives of foreigners in Cuba.
 As previously announced, the Ger man foreign office is demanding imme- diate and full redress for this outrage, and a German warship will soon be sent to Havana if satisfaction is not forthcoming in short order. The Spanish ambassador here, Senor Men deg De Vigo, has had lengthy confer ences with Baron Won Bulow, the Ger man minister for foreign affairs, who convinced the ambassador that Ger many intended to have complete satis- faction, including an indemnity for the property destroyed and for the lives taken. The ambassador was also informed that unless redress was forth coming Germany would herself act to secure damages and punish the of lenders.
 AS an incentive to quick reparation Baron Won Bulow added that provis- ional orders had been cabled to the commander of the German warship Gieor to sail in the direction of Cuba The Spanish ambassador promised that he would exert himself to the ut. most to comply with the German de. mands.
 The newspapers here are alst changing their line and now concedt in the main the justice of American de mands, acknowledging that Washing ton has acted with moderation whicl
 many another government would no
 have shown under similar circum stances.

OF GREATER CONCERN.
The Maine Matter More Important
 Than Cuba's Woes.

Washington, April 2.-The senate committee on foreign relations re- sumed it's sittings at Il a. m. today for the purpose of considering the re- port and resolutions prepared by its subcommittee recognizing the 1nd9- pendepce of Cuba. This report was presented by Senator Davis, chairman of both the full committee and the subcommittee, and was commented upon freely by all present. It is un- derstood the resolution agreed upon by the subcommittee follows in the main lines of the Foraker resolution, but there is reason to believe there Is a disposition to make a direct refer ence in the resolution to the Maine disaster as a cause for our resentment.
 Whatever the phraseology of the resolution itself the report accompa- nied by it will dwell largely upon the Maine incident Some of the members are disposed to regard as positive proof Spanish duplicity in the Maine affair and to resent it as an act Of war, and there is good reason for be- ,ieving there has been more or less discussion in the committee on the advisability of the declaration of war on account of the explosion, not for Cuban independence merely. But the the Maine incident will be thoroughly exploited and made the basis of much that may be said The committee felt this a safe course in view of Spain's recent action concerning the reconc en- trados.
 Senator Frye saw the president on behalf of the committee before the meeting today and gave the members the benefit of the views of the chief executive. After the committee had been sitting for brief time, MT. Davis called a carriage and made a hurried trip to the White House for the pur- pose of comparing views with the pres ident on some points to be made. The committee also had Admiral Irwin be- fore them for some time today examin- ing him as a torpedo expert.

THE TORPEDO FLOTILLA.
A Gread Deal of Guessing About It's
 Location.

Madrid. April 2-The statement cabled last night to the effect that the torpedo flotilla from Spain had ar rived at Porto Rico was taken from a newspaper here. Investigation shows it to be error eous. The fotilla has arrived at Cape de Verde islands and will probably proceed after coaling.
 THEY FELT EASIER.
 Washington, April 2.-An Associated Press bulletin announcing that the Spanish torpedo flotilla was at the Cape Verde islands of the west coast of Africa, instead of at Porto Rico, was received with good deal of satisfaction at the navy department, which was without information as to the whereabouts of the flotilla.
 The islands are more than 200. miles from Porto Rico and it is the opinion of naval experts that at the very best ten or twelve days will be the least time within which they could make the run across.
 NOT THERE LAST NIGHT. New York. April "A telegram of inquiry addressed to the manager of the cable station at San Juan de Porto Rico regarding the report that the Spanish torpedo flotilla had arrived there tonight elicited a response that the f1otilia had not arrived.

New York, April 2.-The Evening World prints copyrighted dispatch dated April 1, on board the Worlds dispatch boat Triton, via Key West which says: ''The Spanish warships Vizcaya and Oquendo no longer lie like big watchdogs across Havana har. bor. They are on their way to Porto Rico. The Worlds dispatch boat fol lowed them until this was made cer tain.

 Only one Hotchkiss gun was at the fort, a large revolving 1000 barrel, and it was loaded on freight car and sent east to McHenry, Md. Ten cases containing 500 rounds of a mmunition went with it. There still remains here about a dozen old style field pieces.

Washington, April 2.-The issue be- tween the United States and Spain re- mains unchanged. No communications having any bearing upon the situa- tion have passed between this govern ment and Spain since last Thursday night when Minister Woodford trans mitted the reply of the Sagasta min istry to the presidents proposition of two weeks ago. Both governments ap- pear to accept this issue as made and are shaping their courses accordingly. This being the case the view is uni versally entertained, even by the rep resentative men of the Administration, that congress upon the receipt of the presidents message early next week will take action which it is almost surely expected must result in a sever ance of the relations of the two coun- tries.
 This was in part foreshadowed by the action of the senate committee on foreign relations in agreeing to res olution recognizing Cuba's indepen- dence and for armed intervention if necessary to secure independence. With a crisis so near at hand it is be- lieved that if any intervention or me- diation is to come it will be within the next few days. It was said, however, at the state department late this af- ternoon that no offer of European mediation had yet been officially trans mitted to this government.
 It was a general understanding that friendly overtures of this nature are looked for at any time from France or Austria and it was reported during the day that the presence in Washington of Cardinal Gibbons and Archbishop Ireland was in connection with an Of fer of mediation from Rome, but it wal stated on high authority at the state department that no overtures of thi: character had taken official form, nol was the state department advised tha any such steps were in contemplation It is the understanding in official cir cles, based upon information, that th' recognition of Cuban Independence would not in itself be regarded b. Spain as a casus belli. But at tn same time there is little doubt tha such a recognition of Cuban indepen dence would be followed by with drawal of the Spanish minister an his entire suite from Washington an the termination of Spain's diplomat representation at Washington
 Such thing is one of the last step preceding actual recourse to war ] is probable, however, that the with drawal of the Spanish minister follow ing the recognition of the independenc of Cuba would not be such an indice tion of war as it would be an en phatic protest by the Spanish gover1 ment against the recognition of tt independence of the colony over whic Spain professes to exercise complet
 sovereignty. Although this recogn
 tion of independence is not considere a casus belli by which Spain could d
 clare war, yet it is believed in dip1
 matic circles such a step would ha,

from the weight of the asscmblagc. The at
