RETURNS IN TEXAS
COMING IN SLOWLY
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
DALLAS, Texas, July 27.-Additional
returns received account for about one
half the vote cast in last Saturdays
Democratic primary. They make it cer-
tain that Governor Campbell has been
renominated by a majority of about
$1,000 and that Attorney General David
son has also been renominated by
majority which may reach ,25,000.
Returns so far to hand show a ma
jority against the proposition to submit
prohibition amendment, but the mar
gin is so narrow that it win require the
full count to determine what the result
has been.
J. L. Robinson, for land commissioner,
S. B. Cousin for superintendent of pub
lie instruction, A. B. Davidson for leu
tenant governor, and A. B. Collquit for
railroad commissioner, have been nomi-
mated. There is still doubt as to the
outcome of the contest for comptroller.
All of the congressman who had op-
position have been renominated, with
the possible exception of S. B. Cooper
in the Second district. He is leading
in the returns so far received, however.

AT ANTIOCH
WILL BE $5OO,OOO
ENTIRE CELERY CROP HAS
BEEN DESTROYED
BREAK IN LEvEE is BEING
REPAIRED
Report That Dynamite Was Used to
Destroy Embankment Now De-
nied-High Tide Cause
of Break
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
ANTIOCH, Cal, July 27.-Every ef-
fort is being made to close the break in
the Jersey island levee, which gave
way early Sunday morning. Two OF
the largest dredges on the river are at
work and have made considerable head
way. Piles are first driven, after which
brush is thrown in and weighted down
with rock. On top of this the dredgers
are dumping earth.
Although having had to combat with
a high wind and tide, the work is pro-
crossing remarkably well. 1t is hoped
by those in charge of the work to nave
the break closed by tomorrow night or
Wednesday morning. If this is accom-
plished the water can be pumped Off
the island within thirty days.
This years crop will be total loss,
as water covers the entire island to a
depth of about three feet. The damage
as a. result of the break is now estt-
mated at about 100000, as the celery
crop, of which there was 300 acres,
would have been ready to. market in
about two months. The potato crop
consisted of 500 acres. all of which was
ready for the market. There is also
700 tons of hay under water.
While a report was circulated that
the levee had been blown up by dyna-
mite there Is no reason to believe that
such was the case. A. strong wind
driving directly against the bank, where
it was weakest, combined with an un-
usually high tide, is undoubtedly the
cause of the break.

OMAHA, Neb., July 27.-William
3D. Bryan was tonight admitted to the
mysteries of the knights of Ak Sar
Ben, an order composed of the business
men of Omaha and the state of Me-
braska. A large number of Lincoln
business men came to Omaha to wit
ness and participate in the initiation.
Mr.. Bryans welcome on his return to
Nebraska from his trip to Chicago to
meet the Democratic leaders was strict
ly non-partisan, but nevertheless cor
dial.
He arrived here at o'clock this aft
ernoon and was met by a committee
from the governing body of the
Knights of Ak Sar Ben and escorted to
the Omaha club, where luncheon was
served. At p. m. he was the speaker
at pole raising by the John A. Creigh-
ton Democratic Marching club. At 4
o'clock he was a guest of Ak Sar Ben
directors at dinner at the Omaha club
The name of the organization of
which he was the guest is the word
Nebraska spelled backward, and Mr..
Bryan said it appealed especially to
him, for his habitual backwardness has
been a matter of comment.
He thanked his hosts especially for
their invitation to join their order, as
it would put him in touch with the rep
resentatives of the business interests of
the state, declaring that he had as yet
found it difficult to get within speaking
distance of the business men of the
country.
Mr.. Rosewater, in his remarks, de-
clared that the two greatest sources of
advertising for Nebraska In recent
years had been the distinguished guest
of the day, and the organization which
was entertaining him. He raised
laugh at the expense of Mr.. Bryan by
relating in a facetious manner of the
meeting in Chicago between Mr.. Bryan
and Mr.. Hitchcock. chairman of the
Republican national committee.
After dinner Mr.. Bryan was taken to
the Castle, where, with several hundred
other candidates, he was invested with
the rights of membership, according to
the rites of King Ak Sar Ben. Many
are the entertaining features of the in
itiation, including a "battleship trip
around the world for tho candidates.
BY gracious permission of his majesty,
| Mr.. Bryan chose as his subject for
active participation in these rites Chas.
A. Cotterell of the Washington office of
| the Associated Press, and when the IN
! itiation was complete the latter ex-
| pressed the opinion that "he got all
! that was coming to his distinguished
principal.
After the ceremonies were through
Mr.. Bryan made brief speech, ad-
dressing his hearers as his friends and
neighbors and emitting political ref
erence.
Mr.. Bryan and party will return to
Lincoln tomorrow morning.

ADDRESS AT FLAG RAISING
is HEARD BY THOUSANDS

OMAHA, July 27.-At o'clock Mr..
Bryan and party were taken to Twenty
fourth and Leavenworth streets, where
the Democratic leader was the princi-
pal speaker at a Democratic flag rails
ing. The flag was raised on a lot
owned by w. j. Connell, who was the
Republican candidate defeated by Mr..
Bryan the first time the latter ever run
for congress. Mr.. Connell was defeated
by a large vote, and year later Omaha
was placed in another congressional
district.
A large gathering greeted Mr.. Bryan
and he spoke at some length. Applause
frequently punctuated his remarks
which were listened to by an attentive
and appreciative audience. In part ne
spoke as follows:
"Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentle
lnent: This Is the first flag raising
that have participated in during this
campaign, and 1 think it is a very
pleasant indication of the era or good
feeling that has so frequently been re-
ferred to that this flag raising is upon
ground donated for the purpose by my
first political opponent. Mr. Connell
and were opposing candidates for con-
gress eighteen years ago. 1t was the
first office that l ever ran for-in
earnest. Let. me explain the word
earnest Back in Illinois L was can
didate one time for trustee OF school.
l went on to fill up the ticket with the
understanding that l should not be
elected.
Loses in First Contest
'It was a very strong Republican
ward. and l did not have to work hard
to prevent election; but little after
noon a Republican who had had 81 fall
ing out with the candidate on the other
side, who was candidate for re-eiec-
ton, came to me and told me he han
already secured for me sixty Republic
can votes. The Republican majority in
that ward was about 120, and when he
told me he had secured for me sixty
Republican votes, l said to him: Why,
IL sixty Republicans vote for me that
will change the majority and L VIII be
elected. / am not running to be elected.
1 am running because no one else would
run. and 1 want you to stop working
for me, for would not have this office
for anything
"'Well, he said, you don't appreciate
what l have done, and l am going out
and work against you.'
so he went out and worked against
me all afternoon, and in the evening
the majority was just about TO- ana
the conclusion was that he had either
not secured sixty votes for me in the
forenoon, or If he had, he had worked
upon sixty Democrats to vote against
me in the afternoon.
I'VE stood uncovered while the flag
was raised. That is the most beautiful
flag that kisses the breezes today. If
you have ever had a chance to compare
that flag with other flags you will
agree with me that no flag that floats
is so pleasing. to the eye. Not only does
1t crafty the artistic sense, not only is
1t beautiful in its combinations and ar
rangements of colors, but it possesses
significance that adds to its charms.

WILLEMSTAD, July 27.-The seri-
our nature of the situation that has
arisen between the Netherlands and
Venezuela was emphasized today by
the issuance of orders to the Dutch
cruiser Gelderland to proceed at once
to Venezuela to protect Dutch inter-
ests there. The Gelderland arrived here
with j. d. DeReus, the Netherlands
minister resident at Caracas, who was
dismissed from Venezuela by President
Castro.
1t was only a few hours after the
cruisers arrival that orders for an inn
mediate return to Venezuela were re-
ceiVed.
Great joy was manifested by the
population here when it became known
that the Venezuelan consul, Senior
Lopez, who took refuge in the German
consulate after mob of Cpracao ma
tives had stormed the Venezuelan con-
sulate, had taken passage for Porto
Cabello on the steamer that arrived
here yesterday morning.
No casualties resulted from the at
tack made last night on the dwelling
of Venezuelan resident and the DEM
opstration before the residence of the
Venezuelan consul.
AS Consul Lopez was going from his
residence at noon to the consulate, es-
corted by armed troops, to remove the
official papers, the mob nearly caught
rim, but he was saved by the arrival
of more troops. This afternoon the
consul's wife and children were es-
c5rted to their steamer. They were
not molested.
A strong armed force took the con-
sui on board the steamer, which was
guarded by troops up to the moment
of her departure for Porto Cabello.
Every possible protection was ac-
corded the consul by the Willemstad
authorities and with the exception of
a few insignificant bruises caused by
stones thrown at him, he was not
harmed. There was a great popular
manifestation last night to the leaders
of the demonstration at which several
speeches were delivered.
