a Severe SnowStorm Raging in the
West-.-Railway and TrOlly Traffic
Impeded,

Selma, Kas.. April 3.-One of the
worst billiards of the year is in prog
ress to-day. Yesterday was an exceed
ingly warm day. Towards evening the
mercury began falling, apd to-day a
fierce snow storm began. 1t will cause
much suffering among unsheltered
stock.
Maryville, Mo-, April Snow is fall
ing fast. 1t lies five inches on the level
and is obstructing railway traffic and
interfering with telephone and tele-
graphic communication. Cattle are
suffering.
st. Joseph, Mo-, April 3.-Another
binding snow is raging here to-day
with good prospects of blocking street
car traffic. There was light snow
yesterday, the first time on Easter for
many years.
Des Moines, Iowa, April Sit has
been showing here for Sc hours with
no evidence of letting up.
Ottumwa, Iowa, April 3.-The heav-

Cleveland, Ohio, April 3.-John H.
Farley, Democrat, was elected Mayor
over Robert E. McKisson, Republican,
the present incumbent, to-day by a
plurality of about $500.
The first returns indicated a much
greater victory for Farley, but his
plurality was cut down by later re-
turns.
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 betrayal
of Senator Hanna and his party during
the contest before the Legislature a
year ago last winter. The whole ticket
suffered somewhat on account OF the
opposition to McKisson, but not enough
to defeat any of the other candidates.
The election was orderly in most re-
spects. The vote was very heavy and
the count was somewhat delayed, but
practically all the returns are in at
midnight

Philadelphia, Pa, April 3.-At con-
ference to-day between the glass manu-
facturers of South Jersey and the Off
GERS of the green glass blowers union,
the proposition of the manufacturers
was rejected and strike is now said
to be inevitable. A statement from the

stated that the proposition of the man
ufacturers ignored the union and sug-
gested that the matter be "arbitrated"
by a committee of the employers. He
said the union was not satisfied with
this suggestion and the conference
came to naught. No other meeting was
decided upon, and it is now said that
unless the manufacturers agree to the
demands of the glass blowers general
strike will be ordered.

gestion was that the matter be left to

WANT ROBERTS EXPELLED.
Reasons Given why the Mormon Congress

man Should not Retain his Seat.
New York, April 3.-The Rev. DR..
Thomas Tiff, of Salt Lake City, ad-
dressed the Methodist preachers week
ly meeting in this city to-day on The
Present Situation in Utah.
DR.. Tiff has been the superintendent
of the Methodist mission in Utah for
20 years. He is making his present
trip as the chairman of a committee
representing the evangelical churches
of Utah to prevent the admission to
the next House OF Representatives of
Brigham H. Roberts. In the course of
his address DR.. Tiff said:
If Brigham II. Robertes is permitted
to sit in Congress, it will be interpreted
in every Mormon hamlet as the fulfill
ment of Brigham Young's prophecy
and also as Matchmaking p0lygamy.
The Mormons will redouble their en-
ergies. Already they may be said to
hold the balance of power in Idaho and
Wyoming, and they are very strong in
Nevada, Arizona and in Southwest Col
orado. The other day the wife of a
Senator from a State adjoining Utah,
herself Methodist, was asked to use
her influence on behalf of our crusade.
She replied that she could not do any
thing about the matter. That shows
the Mormon influence in politics.
We ask that Congress shall expel
Roberts. We at first petitioned that he
be not received, but after comforting
with Senator Edmunds and others, we
thing that the proper procedure is to
expel him.

BY the Republicans of Columbus Secured
the Mayoralty for TEEN.
Columbus, Ohio, April 3.-Samuel l..
Black (Dem), mayor of Columbus, was
defeated for reelection by Samuel j.
Swartz (Rep.), formerly police judge,
by a decisive majority. Mayor Black
is president of the League of American
Municipalities, and this fact was used
as an argument in support of his can
didacy by the party managers. Inc
election was fought on strictly party
lines, however, and was one OF the most
bitterly contested in the history OF the
city, the total vote cast, n, 264, being
heavier than at the gubernatorlal cleo
ton last fall. Judge Swartz is the first
Republican elected mayor of the city
in twelve years. The city is normally
Republican by about 1000, though 1t
has given majoritieS of upwards OF
5000. Heretofore local issues and fac
tiOnal fights have operated against the
Republicans, but united action was Sc
cured to-day by an agreement which
gave Judge Nash, who is candidate
for the Republican nomination for
Governor, the solid delegation from
Franklin county in the coming State
convention. The vote is as follows:
Swarts, Rep, 14,151: Black, Dem, 12,-
1853; Swartz's plurality, 1888. There
were three minor party candidates, but
they polled an insignificant vote. All
other candidates on the Republican
city ticket were elected.
Elections were held in Ohio to-day
for municipal and township officers.
While local issues usually control
these spring elections, there were 9TH
