here attending the state convention Of
the middle-of-the-road populists, said
in an interview:
Il am firmly convinced thar Bryan
will not be the democratic nominee for
president. Even should he have a ma
jority of the delegates on the first hal
lot, | am satisfied that he will never
secure the two-thirds majority which
the democratic convention requires to
nominate. [ do not know who will
carry off the prize, but I think most
at present of the chances of Gorman,
with Cleveland and Olney as good pos
sibilities."

LORD ROBERTS ADVANCE.
The British Army Apparently on
the Eve of an Important Ad-
vance Movement.
MUST MOVE OR LOSE ADVANTAGE GAINED
The London War Experts Point Out
the Probable Complexion of the
Move, But are Unable to
Just What Part Gen. Buffers
Army Will Take in 1t.

London, April 17.--At last Gen. Rob-
erts seems to be On the w of making
his main advance toward Pretoria. I'm
less all the usually reliable sources OF
information and all the indications
struggled past the censor are at fault,
the British army, within a few days,
will be marching northward.
When Will He start:
After many premature and unbound
ed reports that have purported to tell
OF this move, there is naturally, even
in the best-informed quarters, con-
siderable hesitancy in definitely set
Ting upon the day Lord Roberts is
likely to leave Bloemfontein, but there
is a settled impression that it will &C.
cur either at the end of this week or
tie beginning of next.
Advance II Necessity.
The long, weary wait in the Free
State capital has, apparently, effected
a ~much-needed rehabilitation, though
it is probable Lord Roberts would still
further have delayed his advance, had
not the Boer activity forced him to
put his forces in such positions, that
to-day, unless they quickly proceed
northward,t he strategic advantage will
be lost.
War Experts Surpositions.
The critics agree in the supposition
that the advance will be made in par-
allel columns, with a broad front,
west of the railroad, the third and
eighth division sweeping northward
t. the extreme northwest, the entire
force amounting to $4,000 men.
Buffers Part n secret.
Exactly what part Gen. Butler will
take is still a secret which no one is
able to probe.
From the seat of wal there is sig
Iificant silence.
From The Hague comes the news
that the Boer delegates refuse to make
public the object of theih mission.
They hope to be received by Queen
Wilhelmina, but nothing in this direc-
ton has yet been decided upon.

Shott and Knott.

The story of these gentlemen and

is revived. and the tale is thus re-
peated: y duel was lately fought in
Texas by Alexander Shott and John
5. Mott. Mott was shot and Shott was
not. In this case il is better to be
shot than Mott. There was a rumor
that Mott was not shot. but Shott
avoWS that he was not. which proves
either that the shot Shott shot at
Mott was not shot. or that Mott was
shot Notwithstanding. Il may be made
TO appear on trial that the shot Shott
shot shot Mott, or, rs accidents with
