MANY REPUBLICAN VICTORIES.
Changes in Admins tration in Ne
braska MunicipaIities

Omaha, Neb., April S.-City and village
elections were held throughout Nebraska
to-day, with the exception of Omaha. The
main issue in most Of the smaller places
was license and the results are mixed,
the greater number of towns apparently
being favorable to licensing the traffic for
another year.
While party politics cut little figure in
the smaller towns, Republican gains are
noticed all over the state, especially in
the cities, several Democratic strongholds
going Republican.
South Omaha for the first time in its
history elects a Republican Mayor, A. r.
Kelly being the successful candidate by
800 majority. The republicans also elect
ed the treasurer, all four councilmen, and
two out of three members of the school
board. There were three tickets In the
field. Last year Ensor, Democrat, was
elected Mayor by 300 majority.
Lincoln gives the least Republican ma
jority for years and makes a clean sweep
on the local ticket.
Crete, for years Democratic, gives Re-
publican majority. O'Neill and Ashland
are also Republican. Up to midnight few
of the smaller places have reported any
Democratic or fusion gains.

New York April A special to the
World from Washington says:
Admiral Dewey authorizes the World to
announce to the American people that af-
ter mature reflection and in response to
the earnest entreaties from all parts of
the country. his former decision not un-
der any circumstances to run for the pres-
idency is rescinded.
A World correspondent saw the Admiral
at his home at o'clock last evening.
Admiral Dewey said:
II realize that the time has arrived when
I must definitely define my position.
when i arrived in this country last
year. said nothing would induce me to
be a candidate for the presidency.
"Since then, however, 1 have had the
leisure and inclination TO study the mat
ter and have reached a different conclu-
sion, inasmuch as so many assurances
have come TO me from my countrymen
that would be acceptable as a candidate
for this great office.
IF the American people want me for
this high office shall be only too willing
to serve them.
1T is the highest honor in the gift OF
this nation; what citizen would refuse ita

WINGED that the office of President is not
such a very difficult one to fill, his duties
being mainly to execute the laws Of Con-

gress as faithfully as 1 have always
executed the orders of my .superiors"
Admiral Dewey did not state which

"On what platform will you stand?" and

profoundly touched with. admiration at
their gallant behavior.
1t appears that the Beers never doubted
their ability to capture the whole British
force, and We're dumbfounded at the cour-
age displayed and the mastery way in
which the force was able TO escape from
the deathtrap. The Boer force was de-
tached from Kroonstad, joined the Lady
brand force and again divided north of
Thabanchu, one portion following the
other and meeting Col. Broadwoods re-
treating force. The burghers engaged
consisted of Schoeman's command, which
was accompanied by many foreigners.
Commandant John Y. Blake was present
with The Irish brigade, and other for
eiguers
The fight was marked by many actions
of individual courage. The first man to
warn the British Of the ambush was a
sergeant of the army service corps, who
shot Boer dead with his revolver.
A household cavalryman who was sum-
moned to surrender threw his rifle into his
captor's face, knocking him over, and q s.
capped.
The Beers undoubtedly shot some of the
prisoners and also killed some of their
own men who advanced 10 demand the
British TO surrender, and later-according
TO the testimony of eye Witnesses, the
Beers shot some of the prisoners, but the
confusion was so great--the fire proceeding
from all directions and the Beers firing on
the convoy in which their own men were
mixed up-that it is impossible to say ex-
actly what happened.
Explosive bullets have been found in the
bandoliers of some Of the Beers who were
captured.
The enemy pursued the British for
miles, killing, wounding and taking pris-
oners. One squadron of the Sixth Dra-
goons which entered the action l40 strong

The Beers seem to be in great strength
throughout the district and are signalling
on all sides. A large body is reported
moving southwest of Bloemfontein in the
direction of the railway.
Duplicate machinery is available to re-
place, that which the Beers destroyed at
the water works.
The British troops are in urgent need
of remounts.

FRENCH HAS HAD NO BATTLE.
Rccapturc of the British Guns Is
Hardly Probable.

London, April 4, 4:40 a. m.-No news has
yet been received of the expected battle
between Gen. French and the Beers.
There is now but a remote prospect Of
the recapture of the guns. This, however,
is regarded as quite tri1ing compared with
the political effects of the disaster.
AS the Bloemfon tein correspondent of
the Times remarks Commandant Olivier's
strategy in reoccupying Ladybrand and
Thabanchu was bold and even brilliant
Most of his force is composed of Free
Staters and the advantage gained by
them will have a most disturbing effect on
the mind of the Free State populatio
The impossibility of affording complete
protection, for the moment to all far
nlers in the south and southeast sections
of the Free State is recognized at Bloem-
fontein Men who surrendered under the
proclamation of Lord Roberts are now
being punished for the reliance they plac-
ed in the ability of the British to protect
them. Mafeking was still besieged on
March 20. And there are rumo that Gen.
Butler is preparing to advance.
1t is announced from Sprngfonteln that
the censorship has sgain curtailed the dis
patches. Therefore important develop
ments must be impending.
The British public is reluctant to be-
lieve that an American led the Boer forces
which attacked the convoy. The Daily
Chronicle says:
"Reichmann may be, like some other
Americans in sympathy with the Beers.
He may even have unofficialy advised the
Boer commandant, although this would
have been exceedingly improper, but we
cannot think he would take the command
without previously reslgning his commits
sion"

DO NOT BELIEVE THE STORY
That Capt. Reichman Led the Bocrs
Last Saturday.

Washington, April S-War department
officials do not believe the story that
comes from South Africa to the effect
that Capt. Carl Reichman, Seventh In
fantry, was one of the leaders of the
Beers at the last fight between the Beers
aud the English at the Bloemfontein wa
ter works.
Reichman's brother officers, men who
know him we'll. say that it is very prob
able that Reichman occupied some con-
spicuous point of vantage from which to
view the fighting, and his discovery in
uniform by the British was the basis for
the assumption that he was one of the
Boer leaders.
Reichman was selected by Gen. Miles
personally to accompany the Boer forces
during the war as an observer for the
United States army. Reichman ranks
high as a scientific soldier, having been
detailed with success TO observe the grand
maneuvers of the German army as a
representative of the United States army
His colleagues in Washington declare
that the officer has too muchs common
sense to be led into a violation of his or
ders in the manner described.

REPUBLICANS ARE AHEAD.
They Got More Aldermen Than the
Democrats in Chicago.

Chicago, April ga light vote was cast
at the city election to-day The contests.
were chiefly aldermanic, although in each
of the various townships an assessor, col
lector, Supervisor and clerk were chosen.
The CHIEF interest centered in the alder
manic vote Thirty-five of these officials
were chosen, the Republicans securing 10
and the Democrats 16. The old City Coun-
Gil contained 90 Democrats. 35 Republ-
cans and one independent. The new Coun-
Gil will contain 40 Republicans, 29 Demo-
Gratis. A new city ward was awarded at
this election, making an additional MEM
Der of the Council.
In the elections for town offices, the Re
publicans carried the south town, the
town of Hyde Park, and the town of
Lake View, while the Democrats carried
the north and west towns. The majori-
ties in these cases were all small running
from 1000 TO 3,o00
In the townships outside of the city
limits, the Republicans, as usual, made a
clean sweep, electing their entire ticket.

LABOR TROUBLE AT SAN JUAN.
4 Crowd of 500 Forced Native Car
penters TO Quit work.

San Juan de Porto Rico, April "a
crowd Of about 500 persons gathered yes
terday at a pier under construction by the
e. b. jerks Company, inundated the ma
tive carpenters and forced thrty-five of
them TO quit work The present rate of
wages Is $l.5O per ten hours labor.
The leaders OF the movement demanded
an eight-hour labor day. At noon to-day a
mob of over 10000 people assembled and
attacked the st. Thomas laborers. There
were 150 policemen on duty, but they made
no attempt TO disperse the crowd and
company of infantry was called out 10
preserve order The crowd was not vio-
lent, beyond beating few men. The ag-
itators were headed by Santiago lgleslas,
late delegate TO the labor convention at
New York
The leaders from st. Thomas refused
to return to work, being afraid of the az
tacks after hours.
The workmen, who were satisfied and
willing to work, were forced out by the
so-called union leaders, with the result
that the natives will not be engaged. The
company has cabled TO the United States
for sixty-fve carpenters. They will larrive
on the next steamer. The pier is now
protected by soldiers.

Designs on Bacon and other Geor-
gians.
Washington, April 3.-Members of the
Georgia delegation we're surprised to read
a story published in a New York paper
to-day to the effect that Senator Clay was
publicly embraced by a female officeseek-
er a few days ago.
When the subject was brought to his at
tention, the junior senator from Georgia
Joined his colleagues in the laugh they
were enjoying at his expense.
The story was too good to keep, so the
Senator related 1t today. 1t is about the
unique demand made upon him for his
influence in securing a position for wo-
man claiming Georgia as her home, For
some time Miss Adelaide Wilson, who
says her home is Savannah or Atlanta,
has been in Washington seeking an ap-
pointment. She has set her heart on get
ting one in the Congressional Library and
to that end has been besiegng different
members of Congress.
Wanted to Buy a Place.
1t developes that she has written sew
letters offering to give them as much as
800 If they would secure her place In
each instance the recipient of the letter
declined TO expose the woman, supposing &
that she was either ignorant or mentally
unbalanced.
A few days ago Librarian Putnam wrote
Senator Bacon stating that he had receiv-
ed letter from Miss Wilson Offering him
$50 for a place. Neither of the Georgia
senators had ever seen her up to that
time.
Later she called on Senator Bacon 10
press her claims for a place and he had
great trouble in getting rid of her.
Senator Clny's Experience.
Senator Clay's experience came later. He
was walking from the Senate Chambe r
over towards the Senate Annex, where his
office is, when a woman who proved to be
Miss Wilson, stopped and urged him to 90
with her to the library and get her place.
She grabbed his sleeve, attempting to de-
tain him, and declared her Willingness 10
give $1O0 for the place. Senator Hanna
she declared says all the senators can be
bought and l want you to help me.
Senator Clay tore himself away from the
woman who attempted by main force TO
drag him over toward the library and then
the woman promptly disappeared
Somebody started the story that the go-
rnan had attempted 10 hug the Senator, so
eto-day he related the circumstances lust
as they happened. Miss Wilson is about 40
years old and red headed. She would not
take prize at a beauty show.

Prof. HolIander's Advice as TO Taxes
in Porto Rico.
Washington. April S.-During the de-
bate on the Porto Rican bill to-day Sem
ator Fairbanks presented the following
cahlegram from Gov Gen. Davis of
Porto Rico:
'Ssn Juan de Puerto Rico, March 29.--
Letter by next mail from Prof. Holland
er strongly advising against legislative
requirement of United States internal
revenue laws, or fixed percentage thereof
for Porto Rico He urges that tax sys-
tenn for this island should be made to
suit local conditions and harmonize with
home requirements. Hope of attaining
such system will be unrealizable if un-
suited tax laws are forced on the island
and proper measures prevented.
Davis"
Senator Fairbanks explained that Prof.
Hollander is an expert on questions Of
taxation, who was sent to Porto Rico
at the request of Gen. Davis to make
study of these questions.
