FOR WORLDS FAIR MAYOR.
st. Louis Democrats Unanimously
Nominate RoIIa Wells.

st. Louis, Feb. 13.-Rolla Wells was
unanimously nominated for worlds
fair mayor by the city Democratic
convention. Mr.. Wells is backed by
the Jefferson club, strong local Dem
ocratic organization. A remarkable
and significant feature in connection
with his selection is the fact that he
supported the gold wing of his party
during two presidential campaigns
and resigned the presidency of the
Jefferson club, which has returned
him to power, because he would not
accept the financial plank of the Chi
cago platform. It is quite apparent
that the differences engendered in
local Democratic circles by the silver
issue are on the verge of being wiped
out.

the Boer commandant under General
Botha, who is in Chicago. 1.-THE ca

Orange river with force of 1900
men. II this is true it is a death
blow to England's hopes of subduing
the Beers, because Dewet certainly
will have a force of $4,000 in the col

Picking, Feb. 13.-P1ince Ching and
Ii Hung: Chang have received long
dispatch, from the court which they
have not disclosed to the foreign en-
voys. It is alleged to contain in addi-
ton to the recent celebrated reform
decree an account of 1 how Emperor
kWang Su has sent choice of method
OF suicide to all those named for pun
lshment by the ENJOYS, closing with
the inquiry whether Prince Ching and
Ii Hung Chang think the ENJOYS will
be satisfied.
1t is understood the Chinese pleni-
potentiaries in their reply to the court
said the foreign ENJOYS could not OBJ
ject strongly to an accomplished fact,
but that they would probably insist
upon the sentence of execution being
published throughout the empire and
possibly, upon the heads of those con-
demned being exhibited at various
points. ~ ~

medans and is believed to be one
himself. He refused to allow the dis
banding of 5000 men and the emperor
ordered him far from the court. To
attempt his execution, it is thought in
Chinese circles, might mean civil war.
During the morning the foreign en-
voys met and considered the question
of quarters for the legation guards.
The matter of indemnity was also
mentioned, especially as bearing upon
the damage done to the personal
property of foreigners.
The reply of the court protesting
against what the Chinese describe as:
the Inconsistency of the death pen
alties required by the powers was
also discussed. The ENJOYS decided
to ignore the protest and decided that
1t was desirable to proceed at once to
the ILLUMINATION and organization of
the diplomatic quarter.
