The Vote On License.

No license carried in Sisseton
by ffty-two majority and was
somewhat of a surprise. 1t is
conceded that the vote was a.
protest against the manner in
which several of the saloons
have been conducted. The re-
suit was something of a surprise.
not only to the temperance
people, but also to others, not
withstanding the fact that a
strong anti-saloon sentiment was
known to have been at work. 1t
is said that a rupture among the
saloon men themselves proved
useful ally to the temperance
people.

by any person, high or low,
great or small. In case the peo-
pie vote for license, I believe
the city now has too many sa-
looms, and | will do all in my
power as Mayor to reduce the
number of saloons to not more
than five, and if the council
will support me in so doing
will reduce the number to
that limit. and will also see
to it that what saloons we do
have are run in an orderly man.

Police Force.
If elected mayor, | shall insist
that every policeman do his full
duty efficiently in enforcing the
ordinances of the city and in
carrying out the ideas herein ex-
pressed, and shall perform such
duty without fear or favor and
Shall do it conscientiously. | will
not allow any man to wear po-

City Finances.
Past administrations have
given the city good and needed
improvements and ] will do all in
my power to pay for such i'm
provements as rapidly as possi-
bile, reducing the city's indebt-
edness and giving the city an
economical administration in the
interest of the taxpayers.
These things can only be ac-
complished with the support and

General Surprise.

The election which took place
in this city Tuesday was tri-
angular affair, a sort of a free
for-all, go-as-you-please. Two
issues relieved the monotony of
what would otherwise have been
an unusually quiet election; viz,
the three-cornered fight for
mayor and the saloon question.
The result was one of the short
est, swiftest, most unique, and,
withal, cleanest campaigns ever
held in this city. Three good
men We're up for mayor; H. L.
Cortelyou, Peter Burns and An
drew Marvick. Cortelyou won
by tWenty-seven votes. t h e
campaign was free from person.
allties and left no sore spots; at
the same time it was full of en-
enlargement to the plain people,
who were tired of mere nominal
partlsanship and sham reform.
1t also gives evidence that there
is healthy spirit of intelligent
and free action permeating the
local political situation. The
combination of men and circum-
stances which brought about the
result would not have been possi-
BILE year ago.
All the candidates for mayor
were clean, upright men, but Mr..
Cortelyou doubtless gained many
votes by coming out fat-footed
for policy which appealed to
the people. On Monday he is
sued the following platform in
circular form, setting forth his
views as to a clean, normal anC
straightforward administration
Of the city's affairs.

Before Judge Nathan Goff, Of West
Virginia, sitting in the United States
Circuit Court for the Eastern District OF
Virginia, the damage suit Of John Il.
Brickhouse vs. G. 7. Brooks and William
@Jessup. who were election officers in
Norfolk county in 1902. was partially
argued yesterday afternoon, Captain Jno.
S. Wise, of New York. opening for the
plaintiff by reading to the court very
able brief. James II. Hayes, the negro
lawyer, who was original counsel iii the
case, was present, but took no part.
The case, which involves the legality
Of the action OF the registrars under the
new Constitution, and which is a suit
for $4,000 damages, will be defended by
Attorney-Gener Anderson and Mr..
Frank w. Christian on@the part Of the
State. 5t'
Court will reconvene atal0 o'clock this
morning, and Messrs. Anderson anu
Christian will submit their arguments,
and Captain Wise will close If he, de-
sires. He said, however, that he might
not speak again, as he thought he had
covered the case very fully.
1t Is probable that the matter will be
''within the breast Of the court by to-
night.'' There is another case, involv-
ing a suit by a negro named Anthony s.
Pinner. OF Norfolk county, VS.. former
Governor Montague and large number
OF tho men who voted to proclaim the
Constitution, but it is not known that
this will be taken up at once
Only One Case.
All the proceedings yesterday, how
ever, related toa.the Brickhouse case,
which has been pending for several
years. a.
The lawyers got on splendidly with
one another, and when Captain Wise
completed his speech Of nearly three
hours, he was congratulated upon It's
i ability and clearness by both the op-
POSING attorneys.
It will be recalled that In former
case argued by the same lawyers SOW
eral years ago, involving the validity
OF the suffrage ordinance, they had
much sharp cross-tl firing, and were at
times spirited in their references 70

and Escaped.
.DEPoslToRs WILL BE PAID

NEW BRITAIN, CONN. February IL
More than half million dollars ,wortt
of securities We're taken from the vault:
OF the swings Bank Of New Britain b,
the missing treasurer. William f
Walker, according to statement ISSUED
by the board Of directors Of the institu
ton late this afternoon. following tn.
examination; ct the collateral In the banl
by State Bank Commissioners Kendall
and Noble.
There Is left a surplus of about $143,.
600 over and above the amount due tt
depositors, the actual shortage being
s565,000. The directors believe the create,
part OF the securities will be recovered.
AS the bank commissioners We're pre-
pairing a statement to g,ve to the direc.
tors, Mayor George NJ Landers sent q
letter to Governor Woodruff, asking that
Commissioner Kendall be removed from
office on the ground of neglect OF duty
and sincompetency. He pointed out in this
letter that when Mr.. Kendall began an
examination OF the affairs Of the bank
last Thursday, Treasurer Walker. on a
plea OF illness, left the bank, and Com
missioner Kendall did not continue his
work, but returned home to await Walk
ger's convenience. *
In an interview Mayor Lander SAYS
he is prompted also to take this ac-
tion through personal knowledge that
tho bank was not examined asa rule
until after an appointment had been
made by the commissioners With
Treasurer Walker while they arc sup
posed to visit a bank without previous
notice.
Depositors Excited.
There was no little excitement in
and about the Savings Bank Building
during tho day. owing to the uneasi-
ness Of hundreds Of dcpositors who
their deposits under ninety days, the
bank upon order Of Attorney General
Holcomb having taken advantage OF
the bylaw requiring notice of with
drawal. Tho examination of the bank
apparently shows that Walker did not
touch any Of the ready cash or the
book accounts, and that the shortage
is purely an abstraction of bonds.
The directors statements follows:
'"rhe officers of the Savings Bank OF
New Britain. working with the Bank
Commissioners, have to-day examined
the assets of the Savings Bank OF New
Britain and find that here Is an ap-
parent shortage of about $565, 900. Af-
ter charging this amount off there Will
be still about $4,000 Of n surplas,
which makes the amount due the do
posltors safe.
ut Is believed by the officers OF
tho bank that 1t is quite reasonable
to expect that the greater part Of tho
securities making up the loss above
stated will be recovered
Mr.. Walker had charge of other
funds. and besides those OF tho Saw
ings Bank Of New Britain, but only
In tho case of the Connecticut Baptist
Convention funds is any irregulnrty

WASHINGTON, D. c.. February 13.-
7 is believed the controversy with Japan
lfisysr.earer settlement now than at any
time since it arose. The salient point Of
the basis of settlement in SO far as
Southern people especially are concerned
iS that there Will not be segregation Of
Japanese children in the public schools.
tbs funny that after all the diplomatic
negotiations, after all the fuss the ad-
ministrations has made over tho refusal
OF the San francisco school authorities to
grant Japanese children admission to
white schools, the old immigration bill
which passed the House at the last ses-
slon,N but was considered dead and buried
In q Senate .committeer-room. has been
dragged forth and made to do duty as q
treaty The bill will have an amendment,
drawn by Secretary Root, specifying the
right of the United States to refuse ad-
mission to the mainland Of the United
States of Asiatics who come from the In
sular possessions of the United States.
This will prevent the influx Of Japanese
{ from Hawaii. the right to do which is

problem and Il private agreement, a
kind of "geneltmens understanding.
EDctWceIls tNe NllK1QO ana the American
government Is relied upon to complete
the solution. 1t Is proposed to nego-
ttate a treaty with japan. which shall
provide that no citizen OF the latter
country who has not q passport shall
be admitted to the United States. AS
1T Is not the custom Of the Japanese
government to grant passports to
laborers, Japanese laborers will not be
allowed to land,
Japan may refuse to allow American
laborers to go to Japan, but this would
not work u hardship upon any BODY.
Both the foregoing provides for tho
salvation Of the dignity of both
America and the Milsado.
Japs in White Schools.
The dignity of Mayor Schmitz the
Mayor of San Francisco, who, with
the school board Of that city, has been
having conferences with the President
every day since their arrival last Fri

ftinctly understood that the order re-

But it is also understood with eouui
Sdistinctness that the order Is not to

MOUNTED MO IN e.: POLICE u CHARGE Ii

LONDON, February 1S.-The Women
Suffragists, whose leaders have sworn
not to desist in their violent agitation
| until Parliament has granted their de-
demands, appear likely to give the au-i
thorites considerable trouble. To-day
they made more determined and better
! o:ganzd demonstration than ever before,
in ,heg course of which over sixty women
| were arrested. 1t was nearly midnight
!, before they were all bailed out.
From early hour this afternoon until,
10 O'Clock tonight large force OF police
had their hands full In defending the
precincts OF Parliament from suffragists'
raids. Every entrance to the House Of
Commons was guarded by detachments Of
policemen, while other officers Of the law
were engaged In clearing the adjacent
streets. and a body Of fifty constablesi
was kept In reserve for emergency.
Many Women Hurt.
The doors Of the House We're shut in
the faces of the women, and the police
attempted to drive them back. In SO
doing the mounted men galloped among
the women, who struggled fercey. Many
OF the women were thrown down into the
mud and badly hurt. The demonstrators
however were kept out of tho House
proper, although the fight with the police
outside continued for q long time. Sevc-
raj women Journalists, who were roughly
handled by mistake, tainted.
AS the House was about tO adjourn
tonight Claude George Hay, a menu
ber Of the House., called attention to
the disturbances, and protested against
using the House Of Parliament ns
fortress to be filled with police to
protect tho members against the Wo-
men. MI Gladstone replied to Mr.. Hay,
saving he had little knowledge of what
was going on outside, but that the
measures employed We're for tho gem
eral convenience of the members. and
he was sure no unnecessary violence
had been used.
Want to Be Arrested.
At the conclusion Of a meeting OF
the women suffragists, held to-nght,
the women proceeded a second time 20
the House Of Commons. They were met
by a large force of police. n9d eScit-
ing scenes cnsued. Every feW moments
the women made rushes at the police,
and they complain of tho alleged bru-
tallty Of the officers of tho law. Six
teen additional arrests We're made but
1t is assorted Tonight that over one
hundred of the women suffragists have
sworn to get themselves arrested III
order to draw attention to their cause.
