BRYAN IN DANCER.

With all the self-assurance manifested
by the political g of Mr.. Bryan, and
the boastful assumption that the nomina-
ton of their favorite is a "cinch," it be-
gins to look as if the candidacy of Adj
miral Dewey may yet prove a most for
midable obstacle for the friends of the
noted Nebraskan to overcome. 1t may
prove to be the old story of the hare and
the tortoise over again. Mr.. Bryan is
now running at a high rate of speed to-
ward the goal: he has been running stead
lily since the Chicago convention in 1896,
his defeat in the fall of that year failing
to interrupt his ambition to keep to the
front. He has stopped occasionally for
a short time, in order to hastily swallow
a dollar Dime or two, but in the main
his race for the honors of leadership has
gone on as fast as he could work his vocal
cratic public.
Van Wyck. Pattison and German We're
timidly suggested as presidential pos
sibilities. but We're unceremoniously
swept aside by the Bryan cyclone as it
whirled past. The great speech-maker 70
all appearances had the undisputed right
of way, when Dewey doomed up above the
political horizon, like "a cloud nc bigger
tina a mans hand" The admiral did not
enter the race With a flourish of rum
pets. There was no sounding brass, no
tinkling cymbals, in the manner of his
starting off. He slid into the ring quietly
and without ostentation, and until he
gets the perspiration started no one can
accurately measure his speed. He starts
too near the home stretch to get easily
winded before the outcome, whether he
succeeds in o~utstripping Bryan or fails to
get near enough to that gentleman to
play checkers upon his coat tails.

Chinese "BoxerS"

New York, April 10.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: Mail ad-
vices received by the state department
from Edward H. Conger, United States
minister at ePkin, show that he has not
been acting jointly with the representa-
tives of other powers to compel the Chi
nese government to suppress the boxers"
and other anti-foreign societies. He has
been making vigorous representations to
the Tsung Lii Yamenin behalf Of American
missionaries but so far as the authorities
are informed he has not threatened that
the United States will lane troops in
China should the boxers be allowed to
continue their operations. Such a threat
If made, would certainly be disawoved by
this government. The authorities an
derstand that the German government
has made representations to the Tsung
Ii Yamen and it would not be surpris-
ing If it should have declared it's purpose
to protect foreigners by force in China
was 1t unable or unwilling to do SO. The
German government has nou its
purpose to protect foreign missionaries in
Shan Tung province and it's troops at
Kaio Chou are available for this purpose.

suggestion of the governor general of
Cuba, Major Leonard Wood, who is pre-
pairing for a typographical survey of the
whole island, with a local organization

ment of the local government when that

Health Officer Edmund Souchon Of
Louisiana and State Health Officer w. C..
Blunt OF Texas, held a conference here
today In reference to the admission Of
Chinese into Texas n Louisiana from
