CALLS A COUNCIL
President Holds Secret Confer
ence With Party Leaders.
Nobody Willing to Tell What 1t
Was About.

Washington, Feb. ia very impor-
tant conference was held in the cabin t
room of the White House today. at
the presidents request he was Joined
there shortly after 10 o'clock by Sen
ators Allison. Aldrich and Spooner,
Speaker Henderson and Representa-
tives Cannon and Grosvenor, and the
conference lasted until few minutes
after noon. 1t is something of a COIN
cidence that those at the conference to-
day, were, with the exception of the
president and Senator Spooner, the
same III en- who took part in the famous
conference a few weeks prior to the
Spanish war which resulted in the def
mite conclusion that congress should ap-
propriate $50. 900, coo to be placed at the
disposal of the president to prepare for
war. Not since that momentous oeca-
sion until today have the same men
been formally summoned for a confer
ence at the White House.
Previous to the conference the preSi-
dent ate breakfast at the White Ho1se
with Attorney General Knox, Postmas-
ter General Payne and Senator Hanna
When the conference broke up those
who participated in it We're extremely
and unusually reticent. The fact that
the senator's are members of the steer
ing COMMITTEES of the senate and Speak
er Henderson and his two HeutenantS
present today practically control legis
lation in the house, gave rise to the be
lief that the consultation referred to
the legislative programme in congress,
and might have a bearing upon the
shaping of Cuban, Philippine and war
revenue repeal legislation. There also
was an intination that the president
talked with his party leaders in con
gress about the Schley case, and color
was given to this surmise by a remark
dropped by one of the senators. But

LETTER FROM
PAUL KRUGER.
A Message From Dom Paul to
President Roosevelt
Is Being Borne Across the Ocean
by DIR. Mueller.
He MAKES NO APPEAL
But Expresses Regret That He
Can't Come Over.
Mueller's Mission Is to Stop
Horse Sales to British.

Brussels, Feb. 15-It is said that the
desire to keep secret the departure of
DR. Mueller, the former consul of the
Orange Free State in Holland for the
United States was so keen that the Boer
emissary booked his passage under an
assumed name.
According to information from re-
sponsible Boer quarters Mr. Kruger's
letter to President Roosevelt of which
DR.. Mueller is the bearer, does not ap-
peal for Intervention, but expresses re-
gret that he is uQa BILE at present to per
Sonally congrat tulate President RooSe-
velt on his accession to office and con-
cludes with a gratified allusion to the
numerous invitations to visit the great
republic which have arrived and are
still arriving.
Besides reorganiZing the Boer propa-
ganda, in the United States, DIR. Mueller
will direct his efforts principally to OBJ
tanning government prohibition of the
expectation of articles regarded by the
'oers as contraband of war thus indi-
rectly eliciting an opinion on the war
from the United States government
Dr. Mueller is supported by wealthy
Boer sympathizers in Europe and has
great hopes regarding the result of his
mission.

WILL ELECT CHAIRMAN.
Republicans Have New Method
of Selecting Leader.

The chairman of the Shawnee couu-
Is Republican central comraittee will
be chosen at the primaries to be held
March 8 by a vote of the people. Here
tofore the committee has chosen its
own chairman, but the new rules adopt
ed by the committee October 26 provide
-or the new way.
The new arrangement comes as a
surprise to a majority of the members
of the committee. While the rule is
printed, with the others, the comrnit-
teemen knew little or nothing about IT.
The rule was adopted at a meeting
when about dozen committeeman
were present George w. Crane WAS
d member of the committee on rules
which recommended the passage, of the
rev standing rule. That the Republic
car voters of the county announce their
choice for chairman is provided il Rule
l which is as follows:
Shawnee county Republican central
committee shall be composed of one
member from each voting precinct in
from each precinct for each $50 Re-
publican votes cast at the preceding
election for secretary of state. Also one
member for the county at large, who
snail be ex officio charms an CT the COM
mittee. The meetings of the committee
shall be governed by the rules of the
last house of representatives"
Mr.. Crane has been a candidate for
chairman of the committee at the last
two meetings when the committee was
reorganized. 1t is claimed by several
members of the committee that ;he rule
to have the chairman elected at the Iri-
maries is a political move on the part
of Crane to secure the chairmanshIp of
the CON mittee, though it is difficult to
understand why it is not as fair for
any one else as for Mr.. Crane. He is
out of town today, but it is under
stood that he will be a candidate for
chairman. Capt H. NJ. Philips, mern-
Der of the committee, this morning an
noCnced himself as a candidate for
con mitteeman at large from the coun-
Nv which means that he is after ,be
