FRANCE NOT YET READY.
Will Consider Reply to the Russian
Note Probably To-day.


PARIS, Sept. 3-France has not yet re-
piled to Russia's note regarding the with
drawal of troops from Peking. NJ. Dell
casse, minister of foreign affairs, and the
Russian ambassador went TO Rambouillat
to-day to confer upon President Loubet the
decoration of the Russian order OF st. An
drew, recently accorded him by the Car,
and to present TO NJ. Loubet the auto
graph letter accompanying the decoration.
1t is believed that this gave opportunity for
an exchange of views which will have an
effect upon the ministerial meeting which
will be held here tomorrow. France re-
CARDS peace as the first requisite of the
situation. but is not entirely certain that
the withdrawal of the troops from Picking
is the surest and quickest method to at
tain this end.
When handing to NJ. Loubet the Order
of st. Andrew, the Russian ambassador
said: His Majesty desires you to see
in this act, NJ. lie President. a proof of
the high esteem he entertains for you and
token of his unchanging sentiments for
the growth of this friendly and allied ma
ton"
alton. My mission is the most propitious
event among the events which have thus
far signalized the task intrusted to me of
established between France and Russia.
Following is the text of the autograph
letter from Emperor Nicholas, which ac-
companied the insignia of the order:
MY feelings toward you and the bonds of
cordial friendship which unite France and
Russia inspired me with a desire to admit
you to my imperial Order of st. Andrew
the insignia of which will be handed you
at the same time this letter 1t is par
ticularly agreeable to me to offer you this
testimony of esteem at time when the
complete accord, so happily established
between France and Russia, can more than
ever exercise beneficial influence, not only
upon their direct interests but also upon
the maintenance of the general peace which
Is equally our hearts desire With real in
terest L have followed the success of the
splendid exposition upon which France has
a right to pride herself; and | have no need
to assure you of the very sincere regret
feel, as well as that of the Empress that
But, whether far or near. we are ac-
customed to associate ourselves with every
thing that concerns France; and it is with
the greatest satisfaction that we well
come what contributes to her glory and
prosperity"
NJ. Loubet replied as follows: His Mai
eSty has wished TO testify once again to the
persistence of his feelings toward this
friendly and allied nation. We, in turn. see
in this action proof of his Majestys wish
to draw still closer the ties which unite
the two governments and peoples. / beg
you to transmit to his Majesty my graf
itude and to assure him that the French
government is striving every day to MAIN
tain this union, so profitable TO the two
nations"
NJ. Loubet, after the presentation, en-
tertained the Russian ambassador at din
ner. A torchlight procession followed, the
streets of Rambouillat being gaily dec
Grated with the intertwined flags of France
and Russia.

MANY NEGROES VOTED.
Democratic Majority I'm Arkansas May
Not Exceed Fifty Thousand.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Sept. 3.-The en-
tire Democratic ticket headed by Hon. JEFF
Davis. of Pope county. for Governor, was
elected i'm Arkansas to-day. Early returns
indicate that the vote will be lighter than
was expected. III. L. Remmell, the Repub-
lican candidate for Governor, made a good
showing and his increased vote over two
wears ago will probably reduce the usually
large Democratic majority. There was no
opposition 10 the Democratic ticket for any
office except the governorship.
Returns are coming in slowly tonight
The negroes voted in larger numbers than
usual. but their vote is not large enough
To affect the result. \ fair estimate places
the total vote as follows: Davis Dem.
100000: Remrnel. Rep. 10000; Files Pop.
5000. Daviss majority. $500.

OBITUARY.


WICHITA, Kan, Sept. 3.--Ex-Governor
L. d. Llewelling died very suddenly and
unexpectedly of heart failure at Arkansas
City, Kan, at 10 o'clock tonight. He had
been in poor health for long time. Last
Saturday he went to Geuda Springs, a
watering place near Arkansas City. but
grew so much worse that he started Sun
day to return to his home here. He did
not proceed farther than Arkansas City.
but on reaching that place went to the
home of his brother-in-law, where the end
came.
Since the expiration of his term of Of
flee the Ex-Governor had been engaged in
the realestate business and was also large
ly interested IN politics, and continued to
exert a very considerable influence in Pop
ulist councils. His ideas had of late years
inclined towards Socialism.

II. ID. OdeiI VIII BE Nominated for
Governor and Il. l.. Woodruff
Will Accept Second Place.

SARATOGA n. ", Sept. 3.-The meet
ing of the State committee of the Repub-
lican party tonight brought forth no de-
veIopment not already known. The selec-
ton of "A temporary chairman was mere
formality and. in fact, the sessions of the
convention tomorrow and Wednesday will
be formal. The almost forced consent of
Mr. Woodruff 10 take second place on the
ticket. disposes of any contest for office.
The gavel will be welded and the conven-
ton called to order by the man who later
will be named for Governor. for to Ben
jamin b. Odell. jr., as chairman of the
State committee, falls the honor of first
assembling the delegates. In turn, Mr..
Odell will transfer the gavel TO Lieutenant
Governor Timothy l.. Woodruff, who will
act as temporary chairman of the conven-
ton that will later honor him with
nomination for the third time to the Of
flee of lieutenant governor. At the close
Of the convention the Governor of the
State of New York, candidate on the
national ticket, will open the campaign in
New York State with speech.
There is little interest about the corridors
tonight in the convention proceedings, be-
cause every Republican here understands
the programme. There is some little gossip
tonight over the statement that ex-Gov-
ernor Black is to make the speech nominat-
ing Mr. Odel 1t was Mr.. Black who. with
the aid of Mr.. Payne beat Mr.. Odell for the
nomination for Governor in 1896, and it was
Mr.. Roosevelt who beat Mr.. Black for re-
nomination in 1895. Mr.. Black has not been
a very close worker in the party ranks for
two years, but the three men, Black, Odell
and Roosevelt will appear upon the same
lat
synopsis of the platform has already been
sent by the Associated Press and there is
no change to be noticed
1t is an interesting announcement made
tonight that Mr.. Odell will not retire from
the Craftsmanship of the state committee
until after the campaign is closed. This is
i'm fulfillment of his pledge to Mr.. Hanna
that he would conduct the campaign.
