HARRISON ELECTED MAYOR OF
CHICAGO BY TWENTY-EIGHT
THOUSAND.
COUNCIL IS REPUBLICAN
Franchise Question the Chief Issue of

Democratic Chief Executive and
Common Councli-r-Wells' Plurality
Is About Fifteen ThousandResults
in Other Places.
Chicago, April fy-r-Cartpr H. Har
rison has been reelected payor of
Chicago agdwill next Week commence
his third teTnTSS'We chief executive
of the city. His total plurality over
Judge Eldridge Hancey, the Re
publican nominee, i3 28,257 votes.
The total -vote of the city is:
Harrison 156,952 Hancey 128,695.
In the last mayoralty election
the vote was Harrison, Dem., 148,496,
Carter, Rep., 107,437 Harrison's plu
rality, 41,059. Out of the 35 wards
of the city Harrison carried 26, and
Hancey 9. The vote was badly split
some of the strongest Republican
parts of the city giving only a small
plurality for the party nominee and
some of them going for Harrison, who
however, suffered in some of the Dem
ocratic strongholds. It is impossible
at this time to pre'dict the exact for
mation of the new council, but indi
cations are at present that the Repub
licans will have a working majority.
The chief issue in the campaign
has been the granting of franchises
to the street car companies of the
city. These all expire soon by limita
tion and the terms of extension are to
be settled during the next two years.
Harrison has a record against the
granting of long franchises and his
followers claimed through the cam
paign that the Republican nominee
was inclined to grant long time priv
ileges. The Republicans denied this
with great energy, making their cam
paign on the flaws they picked in the
record of Mayor Harrison and saying
that Hancey was no more disposed to
favor the street car companies than
Js Harrison. Hancey was the nominee
**o the Republican machine, which is
domintaed by ex-Congressman Will
lam Lorimer, and this fact cost him
many votes in his party, as there are
many of the rank and file of the party
who are stoutly opposed to their party
machine and all of its works. The
Democratic following of ex-Governor
Altgeld was against Harrison.
WORLD'S FAIR MAYOR.
J$t, Louis Elects a Democratic Chief
Executive.
St. Louis, April 3.Rolla Wells, the
Democratic nominee for wordld's fair
mayor, was elected to that office, by a
plurality of about 10,000. With him
was elected the entire Democratic
ticket At midnight Charles F. Wen
throw, the Republican candidate for
controller, conceded the defeat of the
entire Republican-ticket. G. F. Park
er, the Republican candidate, and L^o
Meyerweather, who ran independently
on the municipal ownership platform
pressed one another closely for sec
ond place. St. Louis is normally a
Republican city about 15,000 plu
rality. This has been reversed and a
Democratic plurality of 10,000 been
rolled up. Some of the Republican
leaders claim that the Nesbit law has
enabled the Democrats to make such
a good showing at the polls. They
claim fraud and threaten to contest
the election. The Democrats, en the
other hand, claim their candidate was
elected honestly and they do not fear
the result of a contest

Caid That Governor, Alien of P_orto
Rico Will Likely, Resign.
Washington, April 3.While Gov
ernor Allen of Porto Rico, who sailed
from San Juan on the Mayflower isp
Haiupton Roads, has. not formally suu-v
mitted his resignation, so far as can
fce learned, his friends here would net
be surprised if he decided not to re
turn to Porto Rico. Governor Allen
went to Porto KteoTk May last at the
personal request of the prea'dent to
set up the new civil government ther*
and get it into good working order
with the distinct understanding that
he was not to be asked to remain^ after
this was done. The president and
Secretary Hay are full of praise of
the manner in which Governor Allen
has fulfilled his task. It is expected
here that if Governor Allen declines
to stay in office. Secretary Hunt, late
oF
Montanarwill succeed +o the place.
As to Governor Allen's future, his
name is connected in official gossip
with one of the foreign ministries,
though as there are no present vacan
cies he might be obliged to wait fo a
time.

Washington, April 3.The war de
partment has received information
from General MacArthur that Aguin
aldo has taken the oath of allegiance
to the United States under the terms
of amnesty offered General Mac
Arthur by direction of the president.
The dispatch conveying this informa
tion contained much more than was
given to the public. The portion with
held related to the future disposition
of Aguinaldo, and suggestions as to
what the late chief of the insurrec
tion might accomplish. No official
statement could be obtained as to
what would be done with the prisoner,
but it was emphatically stated that
he would be held for the present, but
he would be granted all possible Im
munity consistent with existing con-*
ditions. General MacArthur has hopes
that a great deal may be accomplished
through Aguinaldo. During the time
he has been a prisoner he has made
quite a favorable impression upon
General MacArthur.

SETTLED BY GRISCOM.
Has Made Satisfactory Arrangements
of Claims Against Turkey.
Washington, April 3.There is rea
son to believe that Lloyd C. Griscom,
secretary and charge of the United
States legation at Constantinople, who
is now on his way home, has earned
the credit of effecting a final and sat
isfactory settlement of the American
missionary claims against Turkey,
which have taxed the abilities of not
less than three of the ablest ministers
ever sent to Turkey. It appears now
that Mr. Griscom has finally succeeded
in arranging with the Turkish gov
ernment the principle upon which
these long-standing claims have been
based and has assurances that pay
ment will soon be made.

convention is temporary and not in
tended to impair the sovereignty of
China, nor to injure the commerce of
other nations that the convention im

London, April 3."Russia's reply to
Japan's protest against the Manchu

of the chamber of peers, in the course
of an inflammatory speech, openly dis
cussed the probable results of a war
between Japan and Russia and said
that Japan could count upon the
friendly neutrality of Great Britain
and Germany.' He declared that the
United States would not interfere and
France would only cause uneasiness
by the employment of her Annamesa
forces and by a naval demonstration
off Formosa.
"This, he predicted, would be the
limit of French action, an therefore
Japan's vastly superior army would
be enabled without great difficulty to
drive Russia out of Manchuria."

of English Methods.
London, April 3.The annual report
of the British consul at Chicago,
whose district includes St. Louis, St.
Paul, Kansas City and Milwaukee,
pays a great tribute to the enterprise
and industry of these Western cities.
"While it is impossible," said the
consul, "to recommend any new im
port to British merchants, it seems im
portant to point out the growth of
those manufactures with which they
have to compete in the Western mar
kets and Dfiany of which they have
controlled for years."

ness in the delivery of British goods
and ridicules the British merchants

New Orleans, April 3.Proceedings
were brought in the United States
court here by representatives of the
Boers to prevent the sailing of the
steamship Anglo-Australian, loaded
with mules consigned to the British
in South Africa. Judge Parlange,
after reading the petition, issued an
order requiring the defendants in the
case to show cause on April 6, why a
preliminary injunction should not be
granted. The suit is brought by Sam
uel Pearson, a citizen of the South
African republic, residing at Barber
ton Edward Van Ness, a citizen of
New York, and Charles Pierce, con
sul general of the Ornage Free State,
and is against Captain Parson of the
steamer, Elder, Dempster & Co., own
ers of the steamer, and Messrs. Rob
ert and Matthew Warriner, who repre
sent Elder, Dempster & Co here.
The petition sets forth that the
United States and its people are at
peace with the South African republic
and the Orange Free State and their
citizens th~t Great Britain is at war
with these republics that for the pur
pose of carrying on this war, the
Anglo-Australian is now loading at
this port with munitions of war, name
ly, mules and horses that the steamer
is employed in the
Military Service of Great Britain
that for some time defendants have
been forwarding from this port such
munitions of war, knowing that these
munitions and the ship were in the
military service of Creat Britain and
that they were to be used against the
people of the South African republic
and the Orange Free Stated that by
the use of these munitions, the armies
of Great Britain are laying waste and
destroying the farms and homes of
petitioners that one of the petition
ers, Samuel Pearson, has already suf
fered the destruction and loss of prop
erty to the value of $90,000, and is
threatened with the loss of $150,000
more and finally that the war can be
carried on by Great Britain only
through the renewal of its military
supplies from this port, and that when
these supplies cease, the war must
end. In consideration of these state
ments, an injunction is asked to pro
hibit the shipment of military supplies
out of this port. A temporary injunc
tion is asked in the meantime.
The Anglo-Australian was expected
to sail during the day but the effect
of the order issued by Judge Parlange
will be to detain her until the hear
ing on Saturday. General Pearson has
been in the city for several days to
bring the suit.
