proud of it. But, there is no tell

the postoffice, blew open the safe,

CHIEF lAVELL WILL

James Reynolds Is Slated for City
Clerk and Matt Cannon for
Police Clerk.

Thsre is mach sle> ulation as to whom
the several appointive offices of the city
when he Yields the gavel as chairman Of
the city council. There are many appli-
cants for every position and Mr.. Davev
has already eXpei fenced a few of the de-
lights that accompany the Office of may
or. In some instances the city central
committee has taken hand in the mat
ter and has recomms nded one or two per-
sons but none of the members will talk
for publication
One of the most important positions in
the Sltt or the mayor is that of CITY clerk
and rumor has it that James NJ Rey-
hoias. formerly a deputy under Sheriff
Resan. is slated for the position H NOM
mated MI. Davev in the convention. and
LOOK an active .S.rt in the campaign in
pehalf of the ticket and democrats are
generally Wiling to admit that his work
was eHectiNe' The present incumbent
Joe Nalian IS also an applicant for m.

tenn employed on the books
Inc p siti1n Of chief of police is recai,,
ms sreat deal of attention and there
are several claimants, but the one most
."Noleu seems TO be the present incum-
bent John J. Lavell. That officer took an
"''iNe part IN the campaign in behalf of
the ticket and in addition is warm ner-
sonal friend of Mr.. Davey. He has been
IN office long enough to know nearly all
the crooks in the city and his friends
argue that it would not be to the best
interests of tho
green hand. If Chief Lavell is named
the chances are that there will be but few
changes in the personnel of the force. Sol
Levy will undoubtedly take the place
made vacant by the elevation of Mr..
Boyle.
Tie clerk of the police court will proba-
bly, be Matt Cannon. who was formerly a
deputy in the city treasurer's office under
John G Holland. Ii is claimed that he is
well fitted for the position and that he
has the backing of the central committee
There are numerous other applicants for
the position whose claims are being ur-
gently set forth by their friends but it is
almost foregone conclusion that Mr.
Cannon will be the next clerk of the
court
Fo" city attorney the present incum bent
Edward NJ. Lamb will undoubtedly be
named There are several important suits
against the city and his services in the
matter will be required even if another
man should be appointed to the position
He is generally liked by the councilmen
and as far as known there is but little
opposition to him.
The city engineer the building inspec-
tor and the sanitary policeman have no,
been discussed much yet. but it is UNDER
stood that the present incumbents are al
out for leapfO ntmen'. There are :,

L HUNG PUT OUT
100 STRONGLY RUSSIAN FOR THE
EMPEROR.
FORTS ARE TO BE DIsMANTLED
Not Entirely Destroyed so as to Leave
China to the Mercy of the
Meanest Foe.

Washington. April S.-Although no Of
fetal notice has reached here of the re-
ported departure of Prince Lii Hung
chang from Pekin for Shanghai. the Off
Gals are inclined to believe it is true
and that Ii Hung Chang is really leav-
ing Pekin for good and because the EN-
peror is displeased with his conduct Of
the negotiations. 1t was known here
that when Lii Hung Chang was made
one of the peace ENJOYS he was pro-
Russian in sentiment. but there was no
cause for complaint on that score until
the Manchurian agreement came up for
consideration. Now it is believed by Of
tcials here that Earl Ii has proved so
earnest an advocate of the Russian cause
and has so strenuously worked for the
signing of the agreement that his own
government has felt it necessary to de-
prive him Of power to further the agree
ment. If this understanding is correct,
it is believed that an effectual check
has been administered to Russia in her
designs upon Manchuria. for it is thought
the emperor of China would scarcely
have acted in this summary fashion
had he not received assurances of sup
port from some Of the other powers
Mr.. Rockhill has not acquainted the
government with the exact language Of
the agreement reported to have been
reached at Pekin as to the Chinese forts,
but taking the press accounts of the
ministerial meeting as accurate, it is
gathered that Secretary Hays views
have formed the basis of the agree
ment. The original proposition strong
ly backed by most of the European DOW
ers was to completely destroy the Chi
nese forts in the Gulf of Pechili and on
the road from Taku to Pekin. The state
department felt that it would be mex
pedient to proceed 60 far and leave Chi
ma naked to the attack Of the meanest
foe. Therefore the powers were urged
TO content themselves with the simple
dismantlement of the forts, leaving
them in condition to be again mounted
with guns in a reasonable time 1t is
believed here that this project has been
accepted, for it appears from the Ian
guage Of the press dispatches that the
only fort ordered to be destroyed" is
one on point in the Pei river, which is
to be removed simply because it forms
an obstacle to navigation.
