legislature. but the gains were not suffi-
cie1t to endanger the Republican hold on
the; seat in the United States Senate now
held by Thomas Platt
Ta-day's election followed a camnaiqn
which, in spite Of strong efforts by the
political leaders on both sides, was re-
matkable for the lack of interest taken
by the public. Almost the only points at
Issue TO excite comment or discussion were
thief coal plank in the Democratic Mat
forsa and Senator Hills charge that Gov
ernbr Odell was partner in the grocery
firm: of Matthews & Co, OF Newburg. and
thai the firm had profited by the Gov
ernDr's connection with it, his influence.
according TO the Democratic leaders state
ment. having secured an enlargement of
Matthew's & Co.'S business with State in
stitutions. The Governor replied TO these
all cations that the money placed by him
with Matthews & Co. was loan, on which
he received a fixed rate of interest, and
that he did not share further than that in
the profits.
- is usually the case in New York. the
State was divided into two parts for pur-
pose of comparison-the Greater New York
ana the State outside of the city In the
fOrmer Il Democratic and in the latter a Re
publican plurality were certainties and the
an stion was whether Coler's vote in the
cts would be large enough to overcome
th: Odell pluralities in upstate counties.
New York and Kings counties did all that
has been expected of them by the Demo-
cr,5ts. and even more. for the former gave
Colcr approximately $1,000 more than Odell
and Kings, Mr.. COlers home county, went
Democratic by 26.5G0. Queens and Rich
mold were counted to raise the total to
10000 The first returns showed Republic
IN losses in the upstate counties, but as
the night wore on estimates made ii APP
pear that Odell would come to the Bronx
with from 10000 10 $1,000, which would
elect him by from 1000 to 1900.
Late returns from remote districts show
a falling off in the OdelI vote. Oneida
county gave Coler plurality of 142, a Re-
publican loss of sos. and this reduced
Odell's estimated plurality to $500.

COIN FOR COURT.
Another Year Will be Allowed for
Settlement Land Claims.
TO BE EXTENDED.

A special dispatch to the Denver
News from Washington, under date of
April IA, says:
1t has been settled that the court of
private land claims, now sitting at
Santa Fe, N. NJ, will have another
year of existence. This was provided
for in the legislative, judicial and ex.
ecutive appropriation BILL which has
passed both the house and the senate
and is now in the hands of a confer
ence committee. Inasmuch as the ap-
preparation for the court of private
land claims was passed on by both
branches of congress it will not be
tampered with by the conference COM
mittee and therefore is already as good
as law. The provision extends the
powers and functions of the court to
June 30, 1903, and grants $1,000 as
yearly salary to one chief justice and
four associate justices.
In addition to this provision is made
for clerk, stenographer, attorney, in
terpreter and translator, deputy clerks
and other necessary attaches of the
court.
The annual report of the attorney
general sets forth the necessity of con-
tinuiIg the life of this court for an
other year after the expiration of its
present term of existence. On the 5th
of last October there were pending in
the New Mexico district, where the
court had been in session for a year,
including cases on appeal. thirty
claims, involving an area of 562, ,019.36
acres, and money claims against the
United States aggregating S3,710.79,
for 2,93S.64 acres, sold or disposed of
by the United States within confirmed
land grants Inasmuch as but seven
cases were decided during the year 1t
is evident that the court needs some
time yet to complete it's work.

"PORTALES CUTOFF"
Three Surveying Corps in the Field
for the Santa Fe.
THE SHORT LINE.

The Citizen was informed this morn
ing. and the news comes from source
which is strictly reliable, that the
Santa Fe Railway company has three
surveying corps in the field between
Portaies. Chaves county, and the Rio
Grande below, Sabinal.
This survey is for the Santa Fe
short cut-off"not what Is known as
the Roswell cutoff" and instead of
Roswell the survey as now outlined
will run from or near Portales south
around the divide between the Rio
Puerco and the Rio Grande to a point
just below Sabinal, thence up the Rio
Puerco to the Santa Fe Pacific.
The middle division corps were in
camp at Torrance and were to break
camp today. They have surveyed from
Torrance to the head of Yeso canyon.
following it to the Pecos, thence seven
miles south of Fort Sumner, and from
there over the plains to or near Por-
tales.
The eastern division is surveying
from Portales to Fort Sumner, while
the western division is operating from
Abo Pass to the Rio Grande below Sab
inal, thence up the Rio Puerco to the
Santa Fe Pacific, south and around
the divide between the two streams.
This "Portales cutoff" will, SO 1t is
understood. lessen the distance over
the Santa Fe between Chicago and the
Pacific coast materially; in fact will
give the Santa Fe the shortest Ioute to
the Pacific coast, and that's one of the
big reasons why the Santa Fe is be-
stirring itself in the matter oil beating
out the Rock Island in its claim that
the shortest route to the western coast
from Chicago is over the Rock Island.

PROSPECTS BRIGHTER.
Boer Leaders Make a Definite State
ment of Position.

London, April 16.-The British cab
met held another meeting today for
the purpose of considering a commu-
nication from the Boer representatives
now at Pretoria, and message from
Lord Miner British high commission
er in South Africa.
1t is asserted the communication
from Lord Miner contained the first
clear statement of the attitude of the
Boer leaders. who hitherto had not
agreed on the peace terms they would
accept.
The ST. James Gazette predicts an
early public announcement of the pro
gress of peace negotiations
The paper says there is little doubt
if the British and Beers arrive at an
understanding on the main points
of the proposals for peace, the
banishment proclamation will be with
drawn and minor points. like re-stock-
ing the farms, he referred 10 board
composed of British and Boer repre-
sentatiVes.

Bitten by a Dou.

Rev. Thomas Harwood, superintend-

in a sling, and the hand is in a Dad
condition. Yesterday. the kind heart
ed gentleman visited the Harwood

the greeting should be friendly Rev.

DEPOT MASTER BARTON.
Two Hoboes Gave Him a Lively Chase,
But He Landed His Birds.

But He Landed His Birds.
Frank Barton. the heavyweight who
wears star indicating that he is the
official depot master, enjoyed lively
sprint ti!s morning. During the night
he kept his optics on two suspicious
appearing hoboes, who were evidently
attempting to break into a car for
free ride out of town, but the hoboes
kept at good distance. At 8: 80 this
morning. just before the delayed pas
senger train from the south pulled in.
Barton noticed the two hoboes mon
keying with a seal on a merchandise
car. He promptly gave chase, with the
two hoboes running in opposite direc-
tions. One of the tramps came up the
yards. and passed the depot at IL
second gait. When Barton hailed in
view, with one of mis- limbs incapaci-
tated, the hobo was out of sight. Bar
ton, however, staid up and finally cap
tured the two tramps near the Crystal
Ice works, landing the fellows in the
city Jail. Barton says the reason he
was distanced in the race was the fact
that one Oh his huge brogans came in
contact with rail-, partially wrench
ing the foot, and thus preventing him
from making any faster time than a
COW could run. The hoboes give the
names of Harry Wright and Richard

the suburb of Etterbeek became dis
gruntled yesterday evening on account
of being kept on duty In heavy rain
and protested against remaining under
arms longer Several threw their car
tridges into the gutter and shook their
fists in the officers faces. This, how
ever, was an isolated attack. The civic
guards, generally, are thoroughly re,ia-
BILE and on their behavior depends the
tranquility of this city.
The cabinet ministers meeting today
discussed the situation growing out of
the popular demand for a revision of
the constitution and measures for in
creased stringency, both in the city
and suburban towns, were taken in an
ticipation of today's debate in the
chamber of deputies on the proposals
looking to a revision of the constitu-
tlon.
Dispatches announce that 1000 strik-
ers miners and steel workers at Ser
aing were in conflict with troops there.
The soldiers charged the strikers, who
retaliated with a fusillade of stones.
Some of the rioters finally sought
refuge in three taverns, which were
wrecked.
The explosion of a dynamite car
fridge on the railroad track near Arlon
badly damaged the railroad bridge. A
serious disorder occurred in the coal
fields of S. +. Raing. A detachment Of
Lancers was compelled repeatedly to
charge the mob and many people were
injured. A cafe was sacked.
