CHAMBERLAIN MAY YIELD
Probable Ending of the Crisis

OPEN REBELLION WAS FEARED

KINGSTON, Jamaica, April 4.-The
political crisis that has arisen over the
new tariff bill continues. For several
days the island has been on the eve of
rebellion against the attempt of the
government to coerce the representa-
tives of the people. Realizing the full
gravity of the situation the governor
general made proposals for compro-
mise, but the representatives would ac-
cept no terms, which did not include
the abandonment of all coercive meas
ures. The government, unable to con-
cede this point without consent of Mr..
Cham berlain, secretary of state for the
colonies, proposed an adjournment for a
week and this was agreed to. The
moral victory thus secured by the peo-
pie has for the present Gained the ex-
element. No one now doubts that Mr.
Chamberlain will yield and abandon
the attempt to force crown colony rule
on Jamaica as he has on Antigua, Do
minica and Trinidad. Meanwhile the
incident has had the effect of reviving
the movement for an agitation in behalf
of American annexation in line with
that now going on in the Leeward ISL

The New Commander Makes a Very Sc
we're Criticism.
BUFFALO, N. Y, April "A special
from Quebec says: 1t is now publicly
admitted that the Dominion of Canada
is without defenses, and has no army
worthy of the name. This statement is
made upon the authority of the head of
the supposed army, the general who
commands it. General Hutton is first
class imperial officer, who has seen act
i've service in various parts of the en-
pire, notably in Egypt, where he has
served with Gordon, Sir Evelyn Wood
and Kitchener. He has been newly ap-
pointed to the command of the Cana
dian forces, and his first official report
upon the condition of the supposed
army has created more than mild SEN
sation, both in military, civil and polit-
ical circles in Canada. The general de-
clines to speak of the force at all as an
army. In fact he declares that it is not
an army

SOME DEMOCRATIC GAINS.
Little Change, However, in the Politica
situation in Michigan.

Little Change, However, in the Political
Situation in Michigan.
DETROIT, Mich, April 4.-The cleo
tions in Michigan have not shown any
marked change in the general political
complexion of the state, which is nor
mally Republican, but the result shows
quite heavy Democratic gains in some
of the larger cities, notably so in De-
troit, Grand Rapids, Saginaw, jackson
and kalamazoo. On generally light
vote the Republicans hold their own in
the smaller cities and throughout the
rural districts. Circuit judges were
elected in 36 judicial districts. Of these
about two-thirds of the new judges,
who are elected for six-year terms, are
Republicans.
The Republicans re-elect Judge
Claudius B. Grant as justice of the su-
preme court by majority of at least
10000. They also elect Henry S. Dean
and Eli R. Sutton regents of Michigan
university by somewhat greater major
titles. Thomas E. Barkworth, Demo-
cratic candidate for justice, ran nearly
5000 ahead of Judge Grant in Wayne
county Oetroit) and Grant received
only 1000 plurality in Kent county
Grand Rapids) which in recent years
has shown much heavier Republican
pajorities.

ley Dem.) was elected mayor over Rob
ert E. McKisson (Rep.) the present in
cumbent, by a plurality of about $500.
The remainder of the Republican
ticket, including city treasurer, police
judge, police prosecutor, justice and
four members of the school council,
elected at large, will have substantial
pluralities. The Republicans will con-
troll the city council.
McKisson's defeat was due to the de-
lection of Republicans, who voted
against him because of his bolt from
Senator Hanna and his party during the
contest before the legislature year ago
this winter. The whole ticket suffered
somewhat on account of the opposition
to McKisson, but not enough to defeat
any of the other candidates.

Result of the Election for Ohio Munich

CINCINNATI, April 3.-Elections were
held in Ohio during the day for mu-
nicipal and township officers. While
local issues usually control these spring
elections, there were other influences in
some places. At Cleveland there was
decisive Democratic victory on the head
of the ticket only, the result being an
echo of last years senatorial contest
when Mayor McKisson was the candi-
date of the boiling Republicans and the
Democrats in the Legislature against
Senator Hanna. At Columbus Repub-
ican mayor was elected for the first
time in IL years. At Cincinnati the
Republicans have plurality of 1000.
The present Democratic mayor was
elected two years ago by almost as large
plurality. At Toledo an independent
Republican was

Dayton the Democrats made municipal
gains, but the Republicans gained in
the township. The Western Reserve
maintains its usual Republican MAORI
ties, with some gains over those of for
mer April elections, notably at Youngs-
town, Warren, Cadiz, Delaware and
other cities in Northeastern Ohio. In
the smaller cities, as well as in the
rural districts, the Republicans claim
gains. At Hamilton the Democrats
maintained their majorities, also at
Lima, Newark, Circleville, Upper San
dusky, Millersburg and Vanwert. At
Canton, the home of Mckinley, James
Robertson (Rep.) was elected mayor by
13 plurality, change from the present
