POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.

Awaiting Dewcy'S Return.-It is
generally understood that close upon the
heels Of his return to Washington from
his trip to the West and South Admiral
Dewey will issue his long looked for
statement embodying his political views
and intentions. The Admiral is not ex-
, pected back before the 18th. and it may
/ be two or three days after that date that
, he Will give 10 the country the promised
statement Judging from a brief inter
! view to which he submitted the day be-
fore he left Washington 1t is presumed
that he Will define himself as radically
opposed to MIR. Bryan on one or two i'm
portant issues, notably the currency and
expansion. It is stated that he prepared
a rough draft Of his statement before he
went away and that only two or three
very intimate friends have been granted
the privilege Of reading the draft The
reason the address was withheld is said
to have been due to the Admiral's desire
not TO give excuse either to political
friends or enemies to harass him with
political questions on his trip. Then, too.
his fine sense OF the proprieties suggested
to him the advisability of appearing be-
fore the people at this time merely as the
hero Of Manila. for as such he was invited
70 MAKE tour OF tne west ana SOuiH'
and not as a Presidential candidate. II is
limited as a possible result of his trip that
he may conclude 10 formally withdraw
from the Presidential race, and that the
forthcoming statement will contain an an
nounccment Of this fact, as well as Of his
political views. There are indications that
Admiral Dewey has not been received in
the West with that enthusiasm which it
was thought the announcement Of his can
didacy would arouse in that section. All
classes of the people out there have treat
ed him. as the great hero Of the Spanish
war. and the various localities he has Wis
tied have We'd with each other in paying
homage to him as such. but there does not
appear to have been manifested at any
place an overweening anxiety for him to
step down from his exalted position as
one Of the worlds most conspicuous mil
itary chieftains into the muck and mire
Of politics Months before it was known
by the people that the Admiral had pOlit-
zeal ambitions the candidates Of both great
parties had been selected by them, and
these nominations were only awaiting for
NAL ratification =. he party conventions.
1t is believed these palpable facts have
been borne in upon the Admirals mind
with a strength that leaves no room for
doubt as to their meaning and that he
viii sterny refuse longer to listen to the
pleadings Of those who would force him
into politics.

trustworthy authority for the statement
that the Hon. John D. Long is candi-
date for second place on the ticket 81 h
Mr.. Mckinley all recent reports to the
contrary notwithstanding. Late Thursday
Afternoon Secretary Long bluntiy informed
an eager enquirer that he was as much a
candidate Tor Vice President now a he
ever was" The trtth Is that Mr.. Long has
never been political men6icant. The vari-
Gus Offices he has held have come to him
without the usual imp1r,unate self-seeking
Of the politician anG without the all-power-
ful aid Of the impetious demands Of rapa-
cious special interests that contribute 10
campaign funds With the view o. controll-
ing appointments and legislation. When the
advisability Of his uouiratio was first
preached to him, Mr. Long very bluntly in
formed newspaper In ervieWers as well as
political friends that he did not believe
he would add the kind OF ste 9Th to [
ticket which the exiEencies Of the situa-
tiOn demand. Mr.. Long will accept the
nomination II the machine losses Offer it
TO him at Philadelphia. but he will make
no pledges to them or their masters as an
inducement for them to offer it to him.
Convincing evidence Of his receptive can
dilacy is contained In the statement OF
Senator Lodge that he will present tie
name Of Mr.. Long to the Phlade phia Con-
veniion as Massachus cts candidate. What
secret anguish the Hon. Henry Cabot
Lodge viii sJneT while preparing a en- ogy
OF the Hon. John u. Long can be appre-
ciated only by those who know how very
cordially the eloquent and erudite Senator
dislikes the Secretary Of the Navy. Senator
Lodge will be The permanent Chairman Of
the National Convention, but this will rot
prevent his making the speech putting Mr..
Long in nomination. Behind the esp1usal
Of the Long candidacy by Senator Lodge
is an interesting story illustrating the re-
soUrcefuluoss OF the Haunaites. which will
doubtless come out in due time

FAMOUS CASE DECIDED.
Minnesota Iron Company Wins an Impor-

Minnesota Iron Company Wins an Impor-
tant Suit. :t.5i .=.
DULUTH, April 1.-THE supreme
court at Washington has decided in
favor of the Minnesota Iron company
the case against Thomas w. Hyde, in
volving an iron location on the Yer
million iron range, which has been in
litigation for Is years. During that
time 5000, 900 has been spent upon it,
end as a mere undeveloped location, the
property is easily worth 81, 600, 900.
Fourteen years ago Hyde was offered
$75, 900 by the Minnesota Iron company
to quit-Glaim his interest in the land and
step out. He refused, and today he is a
poor man, though for many years he
has regarded himself as q millionaire
because of his interest in this property.
He squatted on the land in 1884, and
subsequently,, when it was opened for
settlement, he tried to pre-empt it.
EARLY in the proceedings appeared the
Minnesota Iron company with an oper-
ating claim, and the fight has been in
progress ever since. s5'Es- 49,. 5s% :.
All through the land Office Hyde lost
suit after suit. Then, to bring it before
the courts, the Minnesota Iron company
began q suit in ejectment in 1896. This,
too, was decided against him, but he
steadfastly refused to abandon his
claim, and he said that he would kill
the first man that tried to serve legal
process upon him. &a$

- *.sssZ +.
TO the Porto Rican Government
4 4 Bill, and Will Push It to
a Vote.
Republican Leaders Admit the
Vote in the House Will
Be Close.

81 WASHINGTON, April II. AT a special
meeting of the ways and means COM
:mittee it was decided by a vote Of s to 8
to report the Porto Rico bill as it passed
the senate, without amendment, and to
move a concurrence in the senate
amendments. This means the accept
ance of the territorial form of govern
ment for Porto Rico, as added to the
bill by the senate, and other lesser
changes on the tariff and other features.
The vote on concurring in the senate
bill was on party lines, with the excep-
tion of Mr. Call Of Massachusetts, the
Republican member of the committee
who first dissented from the bill. =
The vote was not preceded by any ex-
tended discussion, Mr.. Grosyenor
promptly making the motion to concur
and report. f%
It was made known during the meet
ing that the bill would be taken up at
once and and a strong intimation was
given that the plan contemplated was
to allow each side two hours. -,
A meeting of the rules committee has
been called when the question of a
special rule fixing the time and dura-
tion Of debate will be determined. IF
two hours on each side is allowed, the
vote will come later in the day, as con-
siderable time will be spent in passing
the special rule. :5 5gs@
AS to the final result Of the vote there
continues to be much doubt and not a
little anxiety on the Republican side
owing to the extremely marrow margin
between the two sides. 'S' r 4s.'ssa$s III si5#
Representative Long, Republican
whip" said: There is too much
doubt to venture prediction. The
situation is summed up thus: The Re
publican majority in the house is 19;
there are s Republicans against the bill:
kat leaves q majority of only 8. 1t is
ea extremely narrow margin. - va. '~&

GONZALES, Tex, April 1.-THE food
situation here is not much improved,
the river having fallen only about four
feet in the last VI hours. There has
been great loss to cattle in the river bot
assts. and it is feared that dozen Or
store lives have been lost.
Reports come in that number of
bodies have been seen caught on snags,
and barbed wire fences. The river
farms are ruined, but the total loss can
not be estimated yet. The Arkansas
Pass track is blocked for five miles north

Advices from Corpus Christi are that
several large schooners were blown
