press this fact on the voters OF the metro

Some OF the democrats are now wishing
the notification meeting had been held
elsewhere. so that Nebraska would read
rather than see what really happened. They
believe a bad mistake was made. They
counted on the enthusiasm being so great
that It would sweep jthe state off Its feet.
The fact that Mayor Dahlman was more
sought after than either Bryan, Berge or

HOLLAND IN NEED
OF NO ASSISTANCE
Confident Of Its Ability to Han
die Venezuela.

The Hague, Aug. 21.-The govern
mept of The Netherlands has no in
tention of giving out the terms of its
reply to President Castro of Venezu-
ella until it's communication. to the
chief executive of that republic is
actually delivered. This will be done
through the Intermediary of the Ger
man minister at Caracas, who is
watching out for Hollands interests In
Venezuela.
The suggestion has been mooted by
some politicians that the other powers
having claims against Venezuela will
join with Holland in united action
against that republic. This proposal,
however, does not meet with favor
here and no such suggestion from any
other power has officially reached The
Hague.
The government of The Netherlands
Is confident of it's ability to handle the
situation single handed now that ii
has the sympathetic support of the
United States.

and while there have been compara-

REFUSES TO LEAVE POST
Venezuela Recalls Consul at Island of
Aruba, D. w. |.

Willemstad, Curacao, Aug. 21.-The
Dutch island of Arabu has furnished
the latest incident in the existing diff
Guilty between The Netherlands and
Venezuela. Five days ago VeneZu-
elan coastguard vessel arrived at Aru-
ba for the purpose of taking away the
Venezuelan consul. AS soon as the
purpose of the visit became known
the people of the island started a
demonstration. They crowded around
the residence of the consul and want
ed to haul down his flag. The gov
ernor of the island appeared, however,
and succeeded in putting an end to
the disorder.
The consul refused to leave his post,
saying that illness made his going
away impossible and consequently the
coastguard vessel sailed away with her
mission unfulfilled

CONFERENCE AT The
PRESIDENTS HOME
New York GOVernOrship p Subject
Of Consideration.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. 21.-Repub-
lican national politics are being subor-
dinated to consideration of the New
York governorship at one of the most
important conferences that has been
held at Sycamore Hill this season.
The first visit which James S. Sher-
man, the Republican candidate for
vice president, has made to President
Roosevelt since the convention was
the occasion for gathering of a num-
Der of other figures prominent in Re-
publican circles. Among these were
Chairman Frank H. Hitchcock of the
Republican national committee, Rep
resentative William S. Bennett, w. w.
Cocks, William J. Youngs, United
States district attorney for the East
ern New York district; George j.
Smith. formerly a member of con.
gress and recently appointed treas.
urer of the state committee Robert
Bacon, assistant secretary of state,
and Michael J. Dady of Brooklyn
Captain Cameron MGR. Winslow, com
mander OF the battleship New Hamp,
shire. also was at Sycamore Hill.
Chairman Hitchcock has listened to
party leaders and prominent Repub-
licans of the state whether they are
for or against the denomination of
Governor Hughes. The indications
are that some conclusion has been
reached in the mind of Mr. Hitchcock
The preponderance of the evidence
which he will submit to the president
is thought to be in favor of the reten
tion of Governor Hughes at the head
of Republican affairs in this state.

UNABLE TO FIX
RESPONSIBILITY
Witnesses Fail to Identity
Leaders of Mob.
TROOPS QUIT SPRINGFIELD

Only One Regiment of infantry and
Eight Troops of Cavalry Remain on
Duty and This Force Will Be Re-
duced Still Further-Negro Refu-
gees Continue to Leave Town in
Increasing Numbers.
Springfield, ILL.,, Aug 21.-The local
authorities have begun the task of
overcoming the handicap on their ef-
forts to fix responsibility for the re-
cent riot caused by the failure of the
coroner's inquest to hold any one re-
sponsible for the death of Scott Bur
ton, the negro lynched in the black
belt" last Friday night. The open
verdict of the coroner's jury was a
blow to the hopes of the states attor-
ney and other officials, who saw in it
confirmation of the suspicion that wit
nesses to the rioting would fail to
recognize leaders of the mob when
called upon to testify in public pro
ceedings. Of the four witnesses upon
whom Coroner Woodruff had depended
for the success of his first riot inquest
only one appeared on the stand. That
witness displayed an unusually poor
memory when confronted with incisive
questions and the absence of the other
three made the coroner's task futile.
The departure of all except two
c,l
a renewal of the threats that there
would be something doing after the
soldiers leave" and this feeling was
reflected in the anxiety which was
manifest in all circles of the city. In
fact a renewal of the rioting is eX-
pected momentarily and the negroes
especially fear this once the mob is
started again no power of the state
can prevent the most serious disor-
ders.
Force to Be Further Reduced.
Only the Seventh regiment of in
fantry and eight troops of the state
cavalry regiment are on duty. This
force may be reduced still further, &C
cording to common report, but none
of the officials in charge would con-
firm or deny this. 1t is certain, how
ever, that the immediate return of nor
NAL conditions is the goal sought in
all quarters. This can be accom-
plished only by the withdrawal of the
troops from the streets and the abro-
CATION of the orders which, in many
instances, require the presentation of
special orders before citizens can pass
sentrieS stationed at certain street
corners. The regulations of the city
officials regarding the early closing of
all business houses and the prohibition
of the sale of liquors within the city
limits are still in force.
Negro refugees continue to leave
town in increasing numbers. Neigh
boring villages and hamlets, however,
are in many instances refusing the
negroes a haven and most of the col
ored people who are departing are
bound for communities at a distance
from this city. Many of the negroes
selected Missouri as their destination,
but many started for Chicago, Peoria
and other Illinois cities.
Later in the day the cavalry regi.
ment was ordered to return to their
homes. This leaves only one regi
ment of infantry on duty here.
