London, May 11.-(Friday, 4;C5 a. M
Members of the House of Commons, were
freely betting in the Hobbies last evening
that Lord Roberts would be in Pretoria
in two months. The ministerialsts are
builing confident hopes upon the compre-
hensiye plans he has communicated to the
War office. Predictions are definitely made
that he will enter Kroonstad next Mon
day, and it is believed that his advance
is probably already accommodating the
vicinity of Ventersburg, where the hill
country begins again.
Beyond KroCnstad is an intricate and
difficulty country, and if the Beers should
elect to fight it is possible they could
check progress of the British until Lord
Roberts numerous cavalry had had time
to ride around their flank and threaten
their rear.
From $1,000 tc 20 900 is the highest es-
innate Of the Beers under the personal
command of General Botha, who is said TO
have forty-siX guns. General Botha and
General Dcwet are reported to have quar-
relied
Lord Roberts is pressing hard after this
force with $4,000 men and 140 guns, and
10000 mere men are easily available.
President Steyn. with 10000 men, is re-
ported to have been east OF Thaba N'Chu
yesterday Thursday neon, and battle
was then imminent. The advance troops
of General Rumble and General Brabant
were being fired on.
According tc advices from Durham,
dated Thursday. General Buffers army is
showing activity" but a complete news
embargo is imposed upon the correspon-
dent with him.
Parties Of Beers are still holding the
mountains adjacent to Springfield. New
Zealand scouts burned the homestead of
a farmer named Greyling in whose house
arms were found at Deering.
During a concert for the relief of the
sion, given Saturday, at Pretoria. in the
Gaiety theatre, the doors were suddenly
closed and every man in the audience

repeated. 1t was an anomaly in the his
tory of this country. Let us consult not
our emotions not our desires, not our
impulses but our judgment and do that
which the future will approve"
The announcement of Mr. Bryan's name
was the signal for another enthusiastic
outburst.
General James B. Weaver, of Iowa. was
introduced.
Another round of cheers rang out as
the veteran from Iowa came forward to
second the nomination of Mr.. Bryan. He
spoke in part as follows
WEAVER SECONDS NOMINATION.
81 had the honor to present at st. Louis
the name of the distinguished gentleman
who has just been mentioned" said Gen
eral Weaver. Il am glad that I can
say here today that there has never been
a moment from that day to this that I
have regretted or any Populist in Ameri-
ca has regretted that he was the choice
of that convention. The century past
has produced but three great civic names
Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and
William Jennings Bryan. The delegates
in this convention are disciples CT the
first many of them helped put the second
in the chair, and we are followers of the
third. 1t is with peculiar satisfaction
and with the most unselfish purpose that
| arise before you to second the nomina
tion of William Jennings Bryan as Presi-
dent of the United States.'
Jerry Simpson declared Bryan repre-
sented the struggle for human rights.
George +. Washburn. of Massachusetts,
seconded Bryan as the hope of the nation
and Cyclone Davis, of Texas, seconded
him as the only man who can throttle
the oppressors of the people
Loud calls for Butler"
Briefly Senator Butler seconded the
nomination. He said every Populist in
the United States will put into this fight
all that is in his power.
Mr.. Chairman" interrupted Senator
Allen, amid perfect silence, Il move that
the rules of this convention be suspended
and that William Jennings Bryan be NOM
mated by acclamation for President of
the United States.
NOMINATED BY ACCLAMATION
AS one man the convention arose. Hats
canes, umbrellas, flags and canes and
hats were waved amid enthusiasm. while
the band played "Old Hundred
A Bryan picture was hoisted to the
desk while the convention applauded
frantically Chairman Patterson an
nounced the nomination unanimous.
At 5:45 p. m. the convention adjourned
until 8 this evening.

LITTLE OPPOSITION EXPECTED.
Experts Think Roberts Powerful Enough to
0verwhelm Any Opposing Force.
(By Associated Press. }

London. May 10.-The crossing of
the Zand River by the British appears
TO have been effected sooner than
even the most sanguine expected, and
this morning Lord Roberts tempor-
AIRY headquarters is established in
cable cart on the north bank Of the
river. Though the opposition the
Federals is offering shows that yes
terday's reports of the abandoning
of their position were ill-founded,
Lord Roberts advance force consist
ing of from ten thousand to twelve
thousand mounted men. besides ilE
fantry, artillery and the naval CON
tingent. appears to be sufficiently
powerful to overwhelm any opposition
the burghers can offer Even though,
as reported yesterday, they have been
reinforced b. 5000 men from other
commands and possess a score of
heavy guns. the experts believe the OPP
position will not be prolonged more
than is necessary to remove the guns
and other imperiments in the direction
of Kroonstad
Further reports from Lorenzo Mar
quez that the customs authori-
ties there, in addition to clothing and
shoes, refuse to clear corned beef for
the Transvaal, holding it is contra
band.
Lord Roberts announcement this
evening of the fight Of the Beers
from the Zand River naturally caused
considerable qualification at the War
Office. where it is now believed that
he Will not allow the Federals enough
breathing space to reform southward
of KrOOnStad If is lust possible that
Lord Roberts transport may be in
such condition that he will be able TO
keep his troops moving so rapidly as
to drive the Beers right through
Kroonstad without giving them time

Needed Pearson's Vote
Especial to News Observer.)

Washington May 10-As intimated in
these dispatches Crawford this evening by
majority OF two was unseated 1t was
purely a partisan vote. 1t was admitted
in private by Republicans that Crawford
was entitled TO the seat. But as the Re-
publicans needed the vote, Crawford had
to go. Crawford made a speech in his
own behalf. which was unanswerable
And more than once during the delivery
Of his speech he was applauded.
Pearson spoke for himself. His sole
object was to play upon political preju-
dice, which he did most successfully. Lin.
ney made the closing speech for Pearson
and he made speech for home consump-
ton. for the most part of it was aimed
against the amendment. Senator Pritch-

CHILDREN TO DEWEY.
Loving Cup from Little Ones Present
ed to the Hero Of Manila.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The loving cup
of silver made from the melted dimes con-
tributed by over 10000 American citizens,
the majority of whom were children, was
presented to Admiral Dewey to-day. A
small, but notable gathering assembled in
the parlors of the Dewey residence, on
Rhode Island avenue, and participated IL
the ceremony. The cup, which is a massive
and artistic creation nearly six feet I'm
height and appropriately inscribed oc-
cupied the bay-window. draped about the
base with the American flag. At one side
was a large silver bound volume contain
ing the names of the contributors of the
dimes, who had subscribed to the token.
The presentation committee consisted of
Senator Depew, of New York; Senator Per-
kins, of California; Gen. Nelson A Miles,
Secretary Long. of the Navy; Rear Ad-
miral Chas. O'Niel Rear Admiral r.
Bradford, Rear Admiral n. T. Endicott,
Rear Admiral George w. Melville Rear
Admiral Philip Hichborne. Rear Admiral
A. s. Crowninshield, Paymaster General A.
S. Kenney, of the navy, and Surgeon Gen.
eral w X. Van Reypen, of the navy. 9th
ers present were Captain Lamberton, OF the
navy and Mrs. Lamberton, Capt. Clark, who
commanded the Oregon at Santiago; Mrs.
Washington Mclean, Mrs. Ludlow, Miss
Higgons. niece of Senator Depew, and
Princess Luoff, the Hungarian artist. Sen
ator Depew acted as spokesman.
In accepting the tribute Admiral Dewey
thanked Senator Depew for his gracious
words and said he overpowered by
this new proof of the gratitude Of his
countrymen. To him, the most pleasant
thing about il and one that would make
him cherish ii all the more, was the fact
that the children of the country were so
largely represented in the giving. The graf
itude of the little ones, he said. pleased
him immensely. and he spoke feelingly of
the way they surround him on the street
and lisp out their pretty little compliments.
AT the conclusion of Admiral Dewey's re-
marks the health of those who gave and
him who received We're drunk.

cluded quite large number of good ami
mails, principally drafters, and the quality
generally was better than the average for
several weeks. There was a good attend
ance of buyers and the market opened with
rather an active inquiry from all sources,
especially for the good heavy horses and
coachers. The competition was reasonably
strong and the offerings changed hands at
fully steady but not quotably higher prices
than week ago. Other grades sold fairly
active at about steady prices. The arrivals
included consignment from 3. j. Smiley.
of Washington. Ind, including a high-act-
ing coach horse that sold to NJ. H. Rear
don, of New York City. for s275. Geo. Lam
ham, of Sheridan, Ind, had a load OF ex-
traordinary good draft horses in the auc-
ton, including roam horse that weighed
nearly 1900 lbs and sold at s1S250 a grey
team that sold at 1915 and number of
other horses that brought from $ll0dl5O per
head. The market generally satisfac-
tory to statesmen and owners. and the clos
ing was steady.
