Chicago, May 11.-Charles A. Towne,
when asked for an expression of opin-
on regarding the action of the conven-
ton said:
Il can only say what I have always
said since my name has been mentioned
in this connection, that l have not sought
the Office and have made no efforts to
secure the nomination, but if the peo-
pies and the other three parties think
| am the most available man for the
position, | will accept. 1t has been my
wish all along that the Sioux Falls con-
vention should name a committee to
meet with committees of the other two
parties at Kansas City to consider the
vice presidential question, but it looks
as though my friends at Sioux Falls did
not consider that the best course to fol-

HANNA MAKES STATEMENT.
NO ONE DECIDED UPON FOR SEC
OND PLACE.
It Will Be Held Open Until Conven-
tion Assemblies When the Major
ity Will Decide.

New York, May 1.-THE Herald pub
fishes the following statement by Sem
ator Hanna last night:
''The selection of man for the second
place is open, has always been and will
so continue until the convention shall
have made it's choice.
There has been much discussion of
different men for the place, which is very
interesting and proper, but when it is
said that any particular man has the
preference it is mistake.
Governor Roosevelt has not been
nominated for vice president and has
not been discussed in that connection by
party leaders. {
THE assertions made here and there
that the president is concerning himself
with the choice of his associate on the
ticket do him an injustice. He has in
variably declined to take any part.
1T would be manifestly inappropriate
for him to take part in such movements.
1T can be said with emphasis that the
vice presidential nomination will remain
until the assembling of the convention,
and then will be determined as the best
interests of the party and all concerned
shall require.
"A number of names have been
brought forward and no doubt each gem
tleman will develop strength There
may be some ballots before the selection
can be made, but you can rest assured
the man put upon the ticket will be the
man the majority of the convention wish
to have there This will be fair to ALL
II have yet to hear from any source
within the lines of the republican party
even ripple of hesitation regarding the
denomination of President Mckinley
1.-The past four years have given rise
to new issues. There will be bold dec
, larations on these. Four years ago we
were practically a hermit nation, iso-
! lated from all the world forces which
promote industry trade and commerce
"The war with Spain, through wise
councils in the executive office and the
warlike spirit of the army and navy and
people was brought to such prompt
and satisfactory conclusion that it not
only opened the eyes of the world to our
invincible fighting capacity but to our
I marvellous advance in manufactures. 1t
extended our territories, broadened our
productive capacity and extended our
domestic markets among people whose
trade has been a bone of contention
among European nations for centuries.
1.-The republican convention in it's
platform declarations will have to meet
all these new problems of public policy
by taking advanced grounds"

vance continues. The Beers are fighting
half-heartedly. The Free Staters are
sick Of the war.
London, May 1.-THE Daily Express,
in it's second edition this morning, pub
fishes dispatch dated Reit Spruit, May
10, morning, describing the crossing of
che Zand river by the British. 1t says:
1.-The rear guard of the end of the
Beers, with their guns, resisted the ad
vance. The mounted infantry, two l)at-
teries and pompons cleared the way and
the Third cavalry brigade acted as a
screen before the main column. Cen
eral French was on the left and General
Hamilton on the right.
'"The Beers had destroyed all the
bridges during their retreat.
1T is impossible to ascertain the Boer
losses, but they are thought to be heavy.
Those of the British considering the I'M
portant advance made, are considered
light"

Ahmed Pasha Coming to America With
Proposals.

Constaninople, May 10, Thurslay.-The
matter of the settle nent of the indem-
nifty claims is temporarily delayed. Well
informed circles say tina. the Turkish
minister in Washingt ton, Ali Ferrouh Bay,
has been given assurances IF the settle
ment of the claims, bu- asks for short
delay, which is granted. Ahmed Pasha
has left Constaninopie. He is going to
the United States with proposals, the OBJ
ject of which is the settlement of the
claims in an indirect manner. In the
event of the failure of Ahmed's propos-
ais the United States government will
resume negotiations with the porte. The
impression here is that Ahmed will not
succeed.
