TALK OF A NEW MAN
Wisconsin !" Stalwarts - Decide
Whitehead Will Not Do.
GERMANS DON'T TAKE TO HIM
Secretary Of State, IL Fa-
vored and Goes to Milwaukee
for Conference.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Madison, Wis, April 7.-Indications are
that Secretary of State VIM H. Froeh-
Itch will succeed John M. Whitehead as
the stalwart candidate for the repub-
ltcan nomination for governor.
The result of the election in Milwaukee
aid the opposition of German newspapers
to Mr.. Whitehead's candidacy is stated
on good authority to have convinced the
stalWart leaders that he will not do and
for a day or two they have been casting
about for another man to take his place
at the head Of the ticket in opposition to
Governor La Toilette.
1t is learned that the Milwaukee Ger
mania sent word to ex-Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor Emil Baensch, of Manitowoc, asking
if he would accept the place., and that
Mr.. Baensch positively declined to do so.
The choice has now, it is said, fallen
upon Secretary Froehlich, who some
months ago was talked Of as a candidate.
Mr.. Froeblich went to Milwaukee yester-
day, presumably for conference with the
'stalwart leaders. and several Of his
friends here expect the announcement of
his candidacy at an early day.
Mr.. Froehlich's strength lies especially
with the Germans. His home is in jack
son, Washington county. large percent
age of the population of which is German.
and he is popular among Milwaukee, Ger
mans.

POSTPONE

St. Louis Fair Directors to Consider
the Question Tomorrow.
Nssu York. Sssl Special SsruIss
st. Louis. April IA meeting of the
directors of the worlds fair will be held
tomorrow afternoon when it Is generally
believed the subject Of postponing Of the
Louisiana purchase exposition will be
formally considered. It has been known
| for weeks that there is strong senti-
ment among the directors in favor of a
frank declaration at once that the worlds
fair cannot be held in 1908. 1t is be-
lieved that such a declaration has been
prevented by one member of the board
| whose voice carries great influence in the
company.
Public opinion in st. Louis has gradu-
ally crystallized around the opinion that
the fair is to be postponed, that it will
be impossible to get ready by 1903 and
that the only question open is when the
announcement of posponement is to be
made. President Francis declined to
state whether or not the directors will
| take any action looking to postponement
| at their meeting Tuesday. He added that
at the time he was in Washington when
the reoprt was sent out that the fair was
| t ODE postponed he had considered such
an announcement improper owing to the
uncertainty Of postponement at that time
and to the fact that important legislation
was pending in the general assemblies OF
! several states the fate of which might
have been decided by an untfmely an
nouncement.

Harmonides struck the Waesland
amidships and there was terrific
shock. Most of the Waesland passen-
gers had retired for the night.
Perfect order and discipline pre-
vailed The crew or the steamer rap
idly turned out the passengers and
succeeded in assuring them that their
lives were safe. The passengers were
greatly influenced by the GOODNESS of
the crew and obeyed instructions will
ingly and quickly.
The Waesland's boats were speedi-
ly got out and in less than half an
hour the entire ships company had
been transferred to the Harmonides,
Unfortunately two lives were lost.
The dead are a steerage passenger
named Dangerfield and child named
Elsie Emmett, the daughter of a
cabin passenger.
The loss of the Waesland was due
to a dense fog which enveloped the
Irish channel during the entire day
seriously delaying all vessels. The
fog is general all over the United
kingdom and is a great hinderance
to all traffic.

A NINE DAY TRIP BY RAIL
Has Enclosed to His Unaccustomed
Eye a Few Points of Interest in the
United States-Returns to Europe
Early Next Week.

New York, March 7.-Prince Henry
of Prussia today completed his tour
and is once more in New York, where
he will remain until Monday, when
he will go to Philadelphia. He was
absent from the city nine days, dur
ing which time his special train was
within the territory of 13 states and
covered a total distance of 4,37S
miles. He was greatly pleased with
his trip, and tonight, through his
aide, Captain Won Mueller, issued a
statement expressing qualification at
the cordiality with which he was re-
ceived throughout the country. Prince
Henry's last trip on the special train
which carried him to the south, west
and east rivalled in interest all of
the others spent by the prince in the
tour, for it began with a visit to Al
bany, included run in the bright
sun light down the west shore of the
Hudson river, and closed with re-
ception at the United States Military
academy at West Point.
The prince is much pleased with
the receptions accorded him.

marans and Vessels, Boer represent
atives, were received by the secre-
tary of war today. 1t was distinctly
understood that the Beers were re
ceived as private citizens and not in
an official capacity. The principal
object of the delegates was to induce
this government to do something to
terminate the struggle in South At
"ica. They apparently would be sat
isfied with almost anything from in
tervention to simple tender of good
offices.
The secretary promised to consider
their representations and to do what
ever he could to ameliorate condi-
tions in South Africa, but pointed out
that the president was the primal au-
thority and recommended that the
BoeTs see President Roosevelt.
Later in the day, Messrs. Wolmar-
ans and Vessels, accompanied by
Dr.. Frederick Mueller of the Orange
Fee State, called at the White 4ouse.
They were received by President
Roosevelt and remained Is minutes.
Mr. Roosevelt listened attentively
and then informed them this govern
ment could not and would not inter
fere in the struggle.

Basket Ball Game at Butte Was Not
Half so Exciting
AS SUBSEQUENT FIST FIGHT
Girls Only Scratched and Pulled Hair
in the Game, but the Rough and
Tumble Post Mortem Was the Ex-
citing Feature-Boys Fight for an
Hour and Quarter.
SENATOR M'LAURIN.

Butte, March 1.-THE basket ball
game tonight between the girls team
from the high school and the Butte
Business college team was character
lied by some rowdy scenes. There
was loud shouting. vigorous scrim-
images and also some' scratches of
faces. The game was in favor of the
Butte Business college. The mascu-
line rooters, mostly boys of the re-
spective teams, became embroiled
and after the game adjourned to a
vacant lot, where the sturdiest mem
bers of each section was selected to
do battle against the other. A referee
was chosen, a tlmekeeper selected
and an agreement reached that the
fight was to be to finish. The fight
consumed about 70 minutes.
