REPUBLICANS ARE IN THE LEAD

The Southeastern Counties by Safe Major
tiles
Bishop William H. Bulge was in the
city Yesterday. He talked very inter
estingly and most encouragingly con-
corning political conditions throughout
the southeast, predicting that Bear Lake,
| Oneida and Bannock counties would 90
republican. As to Cassa, the bishop
stated that his information led him TO
believe it would be found in the republi-
can column. Concerning Fremont and
| Bingham he had too little information to
justify him in expressing an opinion.
Referring particularly to conditions in
Bear Lake, the bishop said he had never
before been prepared to predict the
county would 60 republican, but he had
no hesitation in stating that it would this
year.
All through the southeast democrats
| repudiated the action of the Pocatello
convention in seating the dynamite dele.
CATION from Shoshone county. The &C
ton was everywhere recognized as re-
pudiation of the work done by the state
in suppressing lawlessness in the north
and it was very repugnant to the people
of all parties. The people there are for
law and order, and they can not tolerate
anything that smacks of subserviency to
any lawless element.
Southeastern democrats, said Bishop
Bulge, were in favor of expansion, and
the action of the party had alienated a
great many of them. This detection was
very large and would of itself change the
political complexion of that section soon
| if there was no such dissatisfaction over
| the action of the Pocatello convention.
Continuing, Bishop Bulge said that
Mr.. Sponberg, who had long been iden-
| tilted with the silver republican forces in
Bear Lake, had left the party and was
| again back in the ranks, and the silver
republican party was now practically nil
in that county. Throughout the south
east the silver republicans were practic-
ally all back in the republican ranks.
Some few had gone to the democratic
party, but they were but a handful.
"Bear Lake will roll up large re-
publican ma jority. have never felt like
saying as much before. At Pocatello /
understand the boast was too often made
| that Bear Lake would go democratic, but
there is absolutely no truth in the state
ment, and it is very evident to anyone
who is acquainted with the feeling of the
| voters that there will be a republican
victory in that section, and large one"
1.-The Dubois victory in the Pocatello
convention was also not popular in Bear
Lake, or anywhere in the southeast, and
has been a great source of strength to the
, republican cause"
"As to Fremont and Bingham, have
not sufficient information to say much
about them, but expect to see the south
east come out with comfortable repub-
lcan majority and with the greater part
of the representatives who shall be
elected
The people in the southeast had ex
perienced good average year; they had
suffered little from the unusual dryness
but all in all conditions were very salts

the mountainous region above Austin.
PASSENGER TRAIN WRECKED.
In addition to the losses here, the
International and Great Northern
railroad and the Austin and North
western railroad, both entering this
city, have suffered severely, the first
named having a serious wreck by
reason Of the floods this morning. The
southbound cannon ball train from
ST Louis, on the International and
Great Northern, due at o'clock a..
m. was wrecked at Mcneil, nine miles
above here, as a result Of a washout.
The engine and cars plunged\ into a
culvert, demolishing the engine. the
mail. baggage car. two day coaches
and one sleeper. The cars left the
track and rolled over on their sides
in four feet of water, but fortunately
no lives were lost nor were any Of
the passengers badly hurt. This is
attributable to the fact that there
were many on the train and 1t was
running slowly at the time owing to
the bad track. The mail clerk, Oral
Davis, of San Antonio, was seriously
bruised and Engineer p. F. Maynham.
of San Antonio, and Fireman G. NJ.
Stanley were slightly injured. The
Austin and Northwestern road operat-
ed no trains today, due to the fact
that five of their bridges were wash
ed away during the night.

NO DANGER OF A STRIKE.
General Manager Gannen Denies the
Rumors as to the Southern.

Washington, April Third Vice
S. Cannon, of the Southern railway,
today denied that there was any likli-
hood of a strike of the telegraphers on
that system, and also that the engin-
eers, conductors and railway trainmen
are dissatisfied. Mr.. Cannon ascribed
the agitation to officers of the Order
of Railway Telegraphers, whose head
quarters are in Illinois.
These men, said MIR. Cannon.
have been steadily at work trying to
create dissatisfaction for five years,
resorting to Misrepresentation and
every means that seem to suggest
themselves whether fair or unfair to
stir up strife"
conductors and engineers met the Of
ficials of the Southern in this city last
January and reached a decision that
was mutually satisfactory. He said
the newspaper reports published some
months ago, that the employees of
his system were dissatisfied were in
stigated by the organizers, who seem
to think they might be able to force
an issue.
Mr.. Cannon further stated that he
met President Powell, of the Railway
Telegraphers, last February, and had
a clear and distinct understanding
with him.
There are no strained relations
anywhere in our SERVICE" said Mr.
Cannon in conclusion. "Our men real
ize that we are doing and always have
done everything we could do for theil
interests. We meet our men when
ever it is necessary and always reach
a mutually satisfactory understand
ing. OF course the object of the dis.

ULTIMATUM TO CHINA.
Our Government To send Troops to the
Interior II Disorder Continues.

London, April "A special dispatch
from Shanghai announces that the
American, British, German. and
French ministers have sent a Joint
note to the Chinese foreign office. de-
manding the total suppression of the
society of Boxers within two mnorths.
and announcing that otherwise the
powers named will land troops and
march into the interior. northern pro-
vinces, Shan Tung and Chi Ii. in or
der to secure the safety OF foreigners.
According to the same dispatch the
American, Italian and French lega-
tions are now provided with naval
guards from the large gatherings OF
warships a. Taku.
Lu Kun Yih. yiceroy OF Lang
Kiang, has had three audiences with
the dowager empress relative to the
emperor and 1T is believed that he has
impressed her with the advisabdhty
Of restoring his majesty to power.
Tden Tsin, April THE United
States gunboat Wheeling and the
Russian gunboat Korietz arrived at
Taku today. The Korietz has since
| departed.
1t is said at the state department
| that nothing has been heard from
| the last few days to indicate any sub
| stantial change in the situation in
| United States Minister Conger within
| Shan Tung. The minister has not in
| formed the department OF the report
| ed concerted action of the representa-
| tives of the foreign powers at Pekin.
Mr.. Cronger's instructions enable
| him to make as strong a presentation
| as he may deem necessary, and even
| to intimate the intention Of the United
| States government to undertake
| through its own agencies, to supply
| the needed protection to our citizens
| should the Chinese government fail ir
it's duty in that matter.
| The United States minister was spe'
| cificalfy instructed that he must &C
on his own responsibility and, while
| his course might lie parallel to tha
| followed by the other ministers resi-
| dent in Pekin, he must under no cir
| cumstances, join with them in a con
cert.
The minister appears to have antic
ipated the necessity for something o
the kind, for a month ago he suggested
| to the state department the expeuIenc.
of having a warship from Admira
Watson fleet sent to a point as nea
Pekin as possible. The Wheeling wa.
accordingly dispatched from Manil;
to Taku, which lies at the mount o
the Pieho river. The Wheeling, from
! her light draft, may easily ascend tn

storm centers at this moment and
