WASHINGTON. April 20.-The Sec
rotary of the Treasury today received
from the Secretary of War estimates
of deficiencies i'm appropriations for
the use of the War Department Tor the
remaining two months of the present
fiscal year, aggregating $34,Ol99o1.
In his letter Secretary Alger says
that the acts of Congress approved on
April 22nd and Goth, 1898, authorizing
enrolment of volunteer army and
placing the regular army on war
footing will necessitate the increase
for the organization, support and
maintenance of new forces.
This estimate is entirely independ-
ent of the allotments made by the
President to the War Department of
the S50.000,000. This will indicate that
up to July LIST next 1.-TWO months) the
increased expenditures on account of
the war will be approximately 100000
600 in all.

by which the United States and the
French governments will cooperate
through their ministers at Denmark
in the establishment of a public cable
station on the Danish Island of ST.

come of vital Importance to the Unit
ed States government owing to the
possibility of naval operations in the
Leeward Islands. Secretary Long
was particularly DESTROYS of having
this cable arrangement effected.

HITCHCOCK FOR CONGRESS-
Editor Of the World-Herald Goes on the
Popocratic Ticket.
THREE PERFUNCToRY CONVENTIONS
No Enthusiasm Displayed, the Only
Question Seeming TO he Who
Would Allow the Use Of
His Name.

The three popocratic conventions of the
Second Nebraska congressional district have
nominated @. M. Hitchcock, the editor Of
the Omaha World Herald, for congress.
There was little clash in the proceedings.
for the nomination was agreed upon in ad-
vance In conference during the morning.
The conventions were poorly attended, there
being no enthusiasm or interest in the pro-
ceedings. 1t was freely admitted that 1t
had got to a question Of anybody to pre-
serve the integrity of the organization. 1t
was no longer whom they would nominate,
but who would allow the use Of his name.
1t was the original plan to permit the pop
ulists first to nominate Mr. Hitchcock, that
the fact might be used in the country dis
tricts that he was the original candidate
Of that party and possibly secure some
strength thereby, but the democrats became
impatient waiting and took the initiative
