SAN DOMINGO IS RESTLESS
Further Disturbances Threatened by
PoDuIar Unrest over the
Acts of Jiminez.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Dec. 1.-San Domin-
gan mail advices under date of November
26 report a condition of popular unrest
threatening further disturbances. Appar-
emily the acts of the Jimlnez administration,
particularly relative to financial matters,
instead of winning the confidence or ap-
proval of the majority of leaders of the
national movement which gave Jiminez
practically bloodless victory over the fol-
lowers of Heureaux, are exciting popu ar
suspicion and distrust and armed opposition
is rapidly developing for the purpose of en-
forcing popular desires on Jiminez. The ad-
vices further say that the American I'm
provement company also opposes Jlminez' S
policy and inclines to moral sympathy, if
not open support of the popular demands.

NEBRASKANS GET INTO LINE
Three of the Delegation Are Out
spoken Against Giving the Utah
Man n Seat.

WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-(Special Tele-
gram 1.-The Roberts case is the only thing
heard in Washington just now, the policies
of the administration for the settlement
of greater questions devolvng upon the
president by reason of the acquisition of
Cuba, Porto Rico Hawaii and the Phil
ippines being lost in the muddle this case
has created.
Interviews had today with some of the
Nebraska members show that Burkett,
Sutherland and Stark are against the seat
ing OF Roberts, while the rest are nom
committal.
"pact she made on entering the union"
Sutherland said "If Roberts is guilty
of polygamy, as he appears to be, I shall
certainly vote for his expulsion"
Neville of the Sixth district had his first
interview in New York paper today and
he used the opportunity for all it was
worth. He said in substance that If he
could consistently vote against the Utah
man he would do so. To quote the sand
hill statesman: ~ don't believe that polyg-
amy has right to exist anywhere under the
American flag. If Roberts is seated has he
not a right to bring all three of his wives
here to Washington and live with them
openly?"
Affairs at the Deadwood Is. D. agency
which have been source of annoyance for
the last three years to Indians of this
agency have again been brought up by COM
plants received here regarding Agent John-
son and James Ross, trader at the agency
The peculiar feature OF the complaints is
that Johnson and Ross are said to be work
ing together, whereas in point of fact they
have been bitter opponents, Ross making a
strong fight year or so ago to have the
agent ousted. Ross has an application pend
ing for the renewal OF his traders license
and although he is supported by Senator
Kyle 1t is problematical whether 1t will Re
renewed. His license expired some time
ago, but so far he has not been disturbed.
The Indian commissioner has decided to
confer with Senator Pettlgrew before modi-
flying the plans for the asylum for insane
Indians to be created at Yankton, S. D.
This matter has been held in allegiance for
some time on account of the indecislon of
the commissioner as to whether 1t would
be advisable TO modify the plans prepared
to bring the cost OF the institution within
the amount appropriated for this purpose
or wait for additional funds being made
available by congress. Senator Pettigrew
has recently communicated with Commits
sioner Jones on the subject and the latter
said today that the matter would be held
in allegiance until the senator could be heard
further.
Secretary Hitchcock of the Interior de-
partment, in his report made public to-

SIT DOWN TO WAIT FOR DEATH
Stoicai Action of the Khalifn and
Emirs When They See Their
Position lis HOMELESS,

CAIRO, Dec. 1.-Ofhcers from the Soudan
who have arrived here say that when Cen
eral Wingatos forces overlook the khaifa
the latter tried to outflank the Anglo Egyp
tians, but failed. Seeing his position was
hopeless, the khalifa told his emirs to stay
with him and die.
He then spread a sheepskin on the ground
and sat down on it, with the emirs on either
side of him. The khalifa was found shot
through the head, heart arms and legs and
the emirs were lying dead beside him. The
members OF his bodyguard were all dead
in front of them. General Wingate's force
swept over them without recognizing the
khalifa and his emirs, but they were identi
fed later.
The khalifa is described as of medium
height, strong and stout of light brown
color and wearing long, gray beard.

DOES NOT STRIKE POPULAR CHORD
London Press Not Enchanted with
Chamberlnin's Speech.

LONDON, Dec. with few exceptions
the afternoon newspapers dissent from Mr..
Chamberain's Anglo Saxon -Teutonic alli-
ance speech at Leicester yesterday. The
Pail Mall Gazette lays stress on the strong
anti-German prejudice in Great Britain and
declares, bluntly, that Mr.. Chamberlain had
better have kept silent.
The Westminster Gazette takes the same
line, believing Mr.. Chamberlain did not rep
resent government opinion and pointing out
how offensive the speech was toward France.
The Globe maintains 1t is impossible for
Germany to give quid pro quo for the re-
sponsbllities which would accrue to Great
Britain by such an alliance.
The Evening Standard says Mr.. Chamber
lain referred to no alliance by treaties.
The st. James Gazette says: "Mr. Cham
berain simply expresses English public
opinion, which has come to realize that with
Germany and the United States we can work.
because with those powers we have a COM
munity of interests and sentiments, whereas,
with Russia and France, we have not"
The Sun, the only other afternoon news
paper, takes similar favorable view of the
suggested alliance.

SMYTR WILL PROSECUTE
Attorney General Says He VIII Get
Right After the Soldiers at
Fort Crook.

LINCOLN, Dec. 1.-Attorney General
smyth has notified Governor Poynter that
he will prosecute the Fort Crook soldiers
who shot and killed a deserter who was
resisting arrest. a court martial has al
ready acquitted the soldiers and a court of
Sarpy county dismissed the complaint on
the ground that the civil authorities have
no jurisdiction. The attorney general says
that while the soldiers are subject to pun
ishment or discharge by the military, the
offense is nevertheless committed against
the peace of the state, and cannot be pun
ished except by the civil courts of Nebraska.

existence of an Anglo German agreement,
as Mr. Chamberlain asserted, and adds tina;
II would be cruel and indecent upon the
part of Emperor william to accept the ac-
clamations Of the Dutch and visit their
queen If he had really signed what Is tanta-
mount to the death decree Of the two South
African republics. Emperor Williams visit
to Holland, the paper says, must mean that
he has not taken such an irrevocable step.
The Liberte takes the matter more seriously
and urges France TO seek alliances ''in view
of certain eventuality in perhaps the near
future"

BRADLEY PACKING HIS GOODS
Kentucky's Chief Executive Prepar-
ing to Return to Private Life
Successor Still in Doubt.

FRANKFORT, KY, Dec. 1.-The post
ponement of the official canvass of Ken
tucky's gubernatorial vote until Monday has
for the time being at least cooled the sur
charged political atmosphere in a very per-
ceptible manner. 1t is not likely now that
there will be any developments until the
meeting of the election commissioners. AL
though the candidates for governor are in
town they are keeping quiet and their
friends are emulating their example. There
is no talking save in the direction of sur
mise, regarding the possible action of the
commissioners on Monday. There is a deep
settled belief among both democrats and
republicans that the commissioners will not
turn the matter over to the legislature, but
will surely issue a certificate to either
Goebel or Taylor. If it is given to the
former it Is possible that the matter may
end there, as many of the conservative re-
publicans are of the opinion that in view
of the strong democratic majority in the
legislature it will be practically useless for
the republicans to look for anything in that
quarter. If the certificate goes to Taylor
it Is probable that the matter will be taken
to the legislature, where Goebel may finally
win out. The republicans, however, are by
no means a unit in favor of ending the fight
at the door of the legislature. Some of them
are vehement in their assertions that they
will not abandon the fight until there Is no
possible chance for Taylor being governor
of the state. Governor Bradley has evil
IDENTIFY made up his mind that somebody will
receive a certificate of election, for he was
busily engaged all day in packing up his
private property in the state house pre-
paratory to a return to private life.
They are making my last days my hard
est days" he said "but l guess there will
be no trouble. There are too many sensible
men on both sides to allow anything of that
kind / really don't see how anything can
be done to keep Mr.. Taylor from the chair.
He will go in all right"

WASHINGTON Dec. 1.-Considerable in
terest is felt here in the news that the in
surgents at Bayambong have surrendered,
particularly as the number is said to exceed
that captured by the United States troops
at any one time.
Bayambong is the city 10 which Aguinaldo
at one time contemplated retreating for the
purpose of locating the rebel capital after
he was forced to flee from Tarlac. but the
American troops pressed him so hard that he
was unable to carry out his intention. Gen
eral Otis dispatch Of today repeating infor
nation received from General Lawton. said
it indicated that Bayambong had been cap
tured on the 2Sth OF November and 1t is
thought this is the same place referred to
in the Manila despatch. No information re-
garding the surrender had been received
at the War department up to an early hour
this morning.

day discussed briefly the presidents mes
sage, to which the finishing touches have
been placed except to that portion relating

the president may be able to announce
the complete collapse of the insurrection
before it goes to congress Members of the
cabinet are unanimously Of the opinion that
the rebellion is on its last legs and that
