THE PAPAL DELEGATE,
Contest Has Narrowed Down to Fall
COMO and seaIinsky for, Representa-
tive Of the Pope in the United States.

Rome, April 9.-The contest for ap-
pointment of successor to Cardinal
Martenelli as papal delegate in the
United States has apparently narrowed
down to two candidates Archbishop
Falconio, papal delegate to Canada, and
Mgr. Sealinsky, formerly papal delegate
in the East Indies. now private secre-
tary to Cardinal Ledochowski. Many
others are mentioned, but the higher
vatican circles where keen interest is
evinced as to the outcome. are satisfied
that either Falconio or Sealinsky will
be appointed. The chances of the form
er are considered to be best, as it has
been shown he has undeniable diplo-
matte ability and is man of profound
learning. Sealinsky, however, is ac-
lively supported by Cardinal Ledoch-
owski, who wields great power as pre-
feet of propaganda. The decision will
be delayed because the consistory at
which Martinelli will finally gain the
red hat has been postponed.

ened by the Socialists at
Brussels.

Who Escaped Unhurt.
This Afternoon.
Britain to Ignore Unofficial
Charges Against Troops
in South Africa.

Brussels April 9.-King Leopold was
mobbed by the socialists this afternoon
upon his arrival here from Biarritse.
The meeting between the socialists and
king was quite accidental, but none the
less unpleasant for his majesty, whose
automobile was surrounded by excited
socialists, who shouted: Long live the
republic" long live universal suffrage"
and waved red flags in the kings face.
The socialists had collected at the
railroad station to bid farewell to the
members of the delegation of Spanish
republican deputies who had attended
the socialistic gatherings here. The po-
lice this morning informed the Span
iards that they must leave Brussels
forthwith, and the delegates wersses-
corted to the station by large gath-
ering of socialists, bearing a red flag.
The king happened to arrive at the
same time and had difficulty in getting
his automobile out of the crowds, but
finally found an opening and outdis-
tanced his pursuers.

TO IGNORE CHARGES.
British War Office Takes No Stock
in Cruelty Allegations.

British War Office Takes No Stock
in Cruelty Allegations.
London, April 9.-The charges made
against the conduct of the British
troops in South Africa, attributed to
General Delarey, have not been brought
to the notice Of the war Office and will
be ignored, unless a question on the
subject is asked in the house of COM
mons. Even in this event it is not
probable that any action will be taken,
unless a responsible authority form
ulates charges in a more definite and
direct form. It is pointed out If Cen
|eral Delarey had wished to make such
allegations he had ample opportun-
titles to communicate them to Kitch-
ener, who, it is believed at the war
office, would have notified the homo
government of the fact, which has not
been done. War Office officials ridicule
the idea that the charges contain an
liota of truth and are inclined to assign
ttheir origin !. to purely continental
cources. The allegations have not
created a ripple of interest in wa-s
office circles, and even the Pro Boer
Press, member of the house of com
mons and others appear to attach
smalls Importance to the mater De-
|larey's courteous treatment of Me-
thuen, it is asserted, makes 1t difficult
Ito believe the Boer Commandant is
personally responsible for the charges,
which include persecution Of Delareys
own family.

KILLED BY KICK OF HORSE.
S. M. Wallick, of shambaush, Kicked

- Ms WdIllCk, OF 0ndmpau9ny NiCkeQ
by Stallion.
Clarinda, Ia, April 9.-S. NJ. Wal
lick, a prominent citizen of Sham
baugh, was kicked in the breast and
killed by a stallion Monday afternoon,
April Z, at 2 o'clock as he was driving
along the public road about two miles
east of that village. DR.. M. English.
of Clarinda, was instantly called by
rural telephone but when he reached
the unfortunate man, about three
quarters of an hour after the CALL life
was extinct DR.. English made an ex-
animation of the body and found two
ribs over the heart to be broken. His
clothing was not torn and neither We're
any marks to be found on his face. As
soon as the accident occurred the un-
fortunate man was carried into tha
house of A. A. Miller and never re.
gained consciousness and died in a very
short time afterward.
Nobody seems to know what Mr..
Wallich was doing in that vicinity
at the time but as a hammer was
found in his pocket and some new
horse advertising cards had just been
tackled up along the road the supposi-
ton is that he was out putting UP
advertisements for the season and
that the horse becoming frightened
began kicking and dealt the death
blow to Mr.. Wallick in the chest.

Will Governor Cummins veto the
compromise measure in regard to rail
road Indebtedness? The bill was intro
duced by HAYWOOD and when the Mols-
berry bill came up was substituted Tor
the latter. When the vote was taken
and the vote showed that u were for 1t
and II against, Senator Hubbard, one
of the most conservative and cautious
of the senator's declared that the work
of the senate had been in vain.
This bill will not and can not be-
come law" declared the senator. Il
therefore vote no."
Senator Hubbard did not wish to be
understood as stating that he had any
other or different knowledge on the
matter than other senators. What he
meant, as he explained later was that
every one knows that the bill can not
receive the executive sanction. But 1t
was passed with distinct understand
ing that it will at least not be vetoed.
Cummins may allow the bill to become
law without being signed. 1t is NOR
ally certain that the governor has not
attempted to say in advance what he
will do with this bill. He is not making
it rule to interfere in legislation. But
it is confidently asserted that this bill
will become law If the house passes
1T. Evidently some persons are being
deceived. The debate on the bill was
interesting. Senator Molsberry went
after those who have been attacking
the bill most unmercifull. and declared
that it was only the imagination of a
disordered mind that could see in this
merger bill" He went after the lob
byists who have been working on the
floor among members opposing this and
similar bills. Senator Porter made the
strongest argument against the bin on
the ground that it will have the effect
of raising rates. Senator Courtright
attacked the bill vigorously and effect
lively. But there We're strong men for
the bill, like Hartman, Hayward. Ire
win, Whipple and Ball, and the bill was
easily passed, just as everybody eX-
pected it would be.
The senate sitting committee was
named last night as follows Hubbard,
Trewin, Blanchard, Crossley, Healey,
Bruce and Porter.

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
Possibility That the Free staters May
Surrender in a Body-Transvaalers
Attitude More Favorable.

London, April 9.-The Associated
Press understands that peace negotia-
tions are progressing satisfactorily, so
far as the Transvaal is concerned. but
the latest advices indicate there is some
probability of the Free staters sur
rendering in a body. Negotiations thus
far have been mainly explanations,
briefly, of intentions. It has been made
plain to the leaders that their surren-
der will not entail banishment, and this
has been a potent influence in leading
the Transvaalers to urge their allies to
arrange peace terms.

The understanding is that, tho the
hearts Of the management have long
been set on holding the fair in 1903.
there will be no strenuous opposition
to postponement if it can be made
perfectly clear that there is sufficient
inducement for the delay. Just at
present the worlds fair officials are
going ahead with the plans for the
fair next year because they have no
time to lose if the fair is to open on
time.
The feeling among some of the di.
rectors still is that the city having
undertaken to prepare the worlds fair
in 1903, nothing should be permitted
to change that purpose. The desire
to make the fair great success, how
ever, is expected to overcome this sem
timent.
