Regarding the report that Germany had
preraltcd upon Portugal to allow the German
troops to travcrte the Portuguese South
African territory adjoining the Transvaal
with view of reinforcing the rftocrg , n spe
cial dispatch from Berlin lhl afternoon fays
It Is rumored there tbat Portugal has posi
tively refused to consent to any such move
ment Upon the part of Germany.
The Idea that a combination of powers has
b = en formed against Great Britain seems to
he gaining ground and a dispatch to tli
Solell of Paris today says that a movemen
Is realon ) foot to establish an antl-Urlllsl
alliance.
QUIKT AT CAPn TOWN.
From Capo Town today the news Is mucl
more satisfactory than for some time pas
and p.'ti at rest the sensational stories cnblci
to the United States on the sub ] ° ct.
A dltpatch to the secretary of state for the
colonies. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain , from SI
Hercules Robinson , dated yesterday , and jus
made puMIc , nays that the Ultlamlers o
Johannesburg have surrendered uncondltlon
nlly , and have given up their arms to the
representative ! ) of President Knieger. In nil
dltlon , the latter hos > Intimated his Intention
of handing over Dr. Jameson and the other
prisoners captured by the Iloerr. to the Hrlt
Ish high commissioner on the borders o
Natal. Sir Hercules Hoblnton. In his ills
patch , adds : "You may , therefor ? , bo sntls
( led that the crisis ly over and that all danger
of further hostilities IP ended. "
The dispatch I' , regarded by Mr. Chambfr-
laln as practically nettling the crisis In the
affairs of the Transvaal so far as the Doors
are concerned , and Is also looked upon as
disposing of the report that Dr. Jamoaon
had been sentenced to be Phot , which was
current at Cape Town rerently.
The most bitter contempt I * felt at Cape
Town , says a dispatch dated January 5 , for
the Hand Ultlanders. who are branded as
cowards for abandoning Dr. Jameson , atu
the hopv has bsen expressed that President
Krueger would reject their demands. This
dispatch nlw says that Sir Hercules Uobln-
Bon was petitioned to pray for the release gf
Dr. Jameson before dealing \rlth the demand
of the so-called nation of Johannesburg.
Mr. Chamberlain Is to give a dinner to
night at the Devonshire club , to the chiefs
of the departments of the colonial olflcj.
A later dispatch from Berlin says that
Prince lioncnione , the imperial chancellor ,
was present at the conference this morning
between Kmporor William and Dr. Kayssr ,
chief of the Germaa colonial office.
Another dlrpntch from Governor Robinson ,
doted Pretoria , January 7 , In reply to Mr.
Chamberlain's Inquiry ns to whether there
was danger of an advance from Buluwayo
said : "I have received a telegram from the
chairman of the macs meeting held nt Btilu-
wayo yesterday , saying th-it a resolution was
p.asired unanimously praying me to exerl
all my Influence to obtain the - re
leases of Dr. Jameson and his men ay a mat
ter overrating all other considerations and
assuring me of the loyal obedience to my
proclamation.
"I also received a similar telegram from
the Chamber of Mines at Bulunayo , anil
think It Is certain there Is now no danger
from that quarter. "
A third dlppatch from Governor Robinson
to Mr. Chamberlain , dated Pretoria , January
7 , communicates a meraag ? from the Imperial
agent at RhcdUtla. It says : "I have been
absent from Bechuanaland nearly a fortnight
prior to Dr. Jameson's move. I arrived at
Matching on Sunday , Dsceihber 29 , and
heard then , aftsr the telegraph line had been
closed , that his force was going to leave
that night and the wlro w > it > cut. The first
message which came through on Monday
December 30 , was your message directing m ?
to send after Dr. Jameson , to toll him and
fore * him to return. *
"About one-fifth only of the , force which
yielded started from Mnfcklng or Cups C.t-
onyi four-fifths started from Camp Pltsanl ,
In the British South Africa , company's terri
tory. No portion of the force started from
Bcchuannland.
"Dr. Jameson left mo an officer and two
men at Mafeklng and eighty-six men at
Pltsanl. Ho appears to have taken all the
available1 ! men. There ore , now ten police
In the -whole of Dochuanaland , four of whom
nrodolng odstomr'jS'du'tSC'pThe country is
practically \ \ylthouUpnllQ9- there are "no
magistrates In the British Chartered "coin-
pony's nejw territory. I have no reason to
believe that any local officials In Bechuana
land had any knowledge of the raid. The
magistrate who was In the British Char
tered company's territory accompanied the
force. " ' <
Governor Robinson also telegraphs that
Captain. Charles John Coventry , second son
of the Earl of Coventry , and ono of Dr.
Jameson's officers who was reported to have
died from woundo received In lighting the
Boers , la allvo and recovering from his
wounds.
DECEIVED HIS FOLLOWERS.
A dispatch to the Renter Telegram com-
piny from Krugersdorp dated January 3 ,
says the wounds Inflicted by the bullets of
the. Mctfcrd rifle are remarkably clean. The
correspondent Instances a' case In which
a. MetfOrd rifle bullet penetrated , the brain
of a man and the man Is still alive. The
dispatch also sayo the Bechiunaland con
tingent of Dr. Jameson's force unite in de
claring that when they left Mafeklng they
wrro told they were" going to fight a native
tribe and It was only when they had crossed
the border of the Transvaal that they were
told they were going to Johannesburg , to
the relief of the residents of the place and
that they would be joined by n detachment
of the Cape mounted rifles , 2,000 Johannes
burg volunteers and a regiment from Cape
town ,
At the close of business for the day the
marquis of Salisbury proceeded to 1/3 ( field
hone ? , where a grond county ball Is to" be
given thlB evening. Several hundred guesto
will be present , Including all the bett people
ple of the neighborhood. Among thos > who
will bo present ar ? : Mr , D. C. Wells , second
secretary of the United States embassy ; and
the secretary of the United States ambas
sador. Mr. Carter. Ambassador Bayard will
net be pres'nt , as he la shooting In York
shire.
AT WORK ON VENEZUELAN DOCU
MENTS.
In retard to the pressure bcln'g brought
by the D-illy Chronicle , Mr. Georg ? W.
Smaller , the New York correspondent of the
London Tlmn , and others" urging the marquis
of Salisbury to publish the entire Venezuelan
corm'pondence ' , the foreign office states that
while It wishes to d everything In in power ,
as consistently as It can to furnlwh all the
avalUblo matter that may tend to better the
feeling between the two government ! ! It
niunt be realized that the correspondence
extends over flftyrflvo years , and Is In varlouu
languages. Therefore , It Is not matter which
pan be compiled In a few days. The state
ment of the foreign office ended with the
remark : 'You may state , however , that
the marquis of Salisbury Is engaged upon the
matter , and that a lull statement will be
placed before Parliament au scon as possi
ble. "
An editorial In the Timers admits that the
Chartered South Afrjc.i company ought to
Indemnify the Transvaal for Dr. Jameson's
raid , but says there U not a shadow of pre
text for the demand for Hon. Cecil Rhodes'
expulsion. A dispatch to the Times from
Berlin , speaking of the supposed purpose of
the Germans to dispatch troops to the rcl'cf
'of the Boors , says : "It Is now explained that
Germany only desired to protect German
residents and Its consulate at 1'retorlj , and
that 119 arrangement had been previously
nude with Portugal , and after hearing that
'Jr. Ji\meson had started , Germany only had
tjme to telegraph an explanation of Its In
tended action to Lirban. The news of Dr.
Jameson's defeat arrlvnl before Portugal had
tlmo to reply. It 'a a pity this explanation
was not published earlier. "
DESTINATION Or THE SHIPS.
Delagoa Bay , to which BrltUh and Ger
man \\arshlps are being dispatched , Is pro
nounced the finest harbor In South Africa
and the European power * which have In
terests In South Africa have long kept jeal
ous natch of each other's movements In re
lation to It. In the latter part of September ,
ISO I , there was a report In England that
a syndicate had purchased a concession for
building n pier In Delagoi Bay by which the
practical control of the port would pass to
the Transvaal. Soon afterward tlieru was
an uprising of Kaffirs against the Portuguese ,
to whom Pelagoa Day belongs , and British
marines were promptly landed at Lorenzo
Marques , from the gunboat Thrush , agalnbt
the protest of the Portuguese governor.
Delagoa Bay U the natural outlet of the
4rnda ol the Transvaal and Portugal'u In
terest Is to make all the traffic
of the plateau of ( he Interior
converge- toward this port. To this end the
Pretoria-Lorenzo Marques railway was com-
mencrd In IBSfi. With bnMns , quays : nnd rail
ways nt Lorenzo Marques , communicating
with the Transvaal gold fields- and the rich
country of the Interior , Lorenzo Marques
will have a great future before It. The
town Is surrounded by a wall and the bat
teries have btcn erected to defend It against
hostile attack on the land side. The town
lies low on the- northern sldo of the Inner
harbor , -Or English river , as It used to be
called , Lirenzo Marques has n splendid
harbor , capable of holding and elultcrlng
hundreds of the finest ships. The cntrancs
to UIB linrbor Is so wUe and fine that a fleet
of Ironclads could enter It. The harbor
covers some 2,000 square miles of water ,
dotted hero and there with wood-clad Islands.
Ir.vack Island guards the entrance and here
the Portuguese hnve planted batteries to de
fend the anchorage. The cntrancs to the
Inner harbor , or English river , where Lor
enzo Marques hay been planted , Is about n
mile wmp.
Fifteen feet of water covers theMr at low
water. Vessels drawing twelve feet of water
can navigate the English river for forty
'miles , while two mil.s from Lorenzo Mar
ques they ojn lie Jn sufficient depth and free
from every wind.
The decision of the ownership of the bay
of Lorenzo Marques Ircamo a question of
great Importance In 1876. Portugal claimed
poovesjlon of the whole of It by right o
discovery ; England by effective colonization
The British uattled along the southern par
of D lagca bay and built a town , and In th
course of time ElglanJ , while acknowlelgmi
Portugal's rlsht to the northern part c
the bay , claimed the nautbern as her own
The matter was brought to a crisis when
In 18G3 , the Transvaal republic , by procla
matlon , c-ilmed ! the Mnputn river fron
Its Junction with the Pcngola to Its em
houclmrc Into the southern part of DelaRoa
Bay. Both England and Portugal strenuouslj
resisted this claim , and set up counter pro
tensions. Eventually the matter was re
ferrcd to the arbitration of Marshal McMa
lion , the then president of the French ro
public. In 1875 ho declared the southern par
of Dslagoa Boy , Including the Maputo river
up to the Lombodo mountains , belonged t (
Portugal. England consequently hai > le <
down the British ensign , but In 1S91 , an
agreement was made between that country
nnd Portugal that , In the event of the latter
country wishing to part with the Bay , Eng
land should have the first right of purchasing
It.
DAR'OIJIIOUSI.Y N18AU TO WAH.
I.nnilnii N 'Avr < | > ui > iT Admit flu ; Situa
tion IN Crltlfiif.
NEW YORK , Jan. 8. A dispatch to the
Journal from London says : The govern
ment gag Is still on the news from
Capo Town. Meantime the most serious condi
tion Is nearer home. England nnd Germany
arc on the ragged edge of war. The corre
spondent cabled yesterday that It was lin-
possslble to believe that Emperor William
had told Leyds , agent of the Transvaal , that
he meant to send a German minister to
Johannesburg. Leyils told this to a reporter
yesterday und now he has said to another
news man at Berlin that the emperor told
him he would recognize the complete Inde
pendence of the Transvaal. Reiteration has
strengthened the story , which If true , means
neither more nor less than war between
England and Germany.
Emperor William has not ships enough to
flght England and will not do so alone. The
case la either one of pure bluster or else Is
the outcome of n well arranged plan between
Russia and Germany In pursuance of which
Emperor William takes the first slight ex
cuse for announcing his Intentions. The situ
ation was tense here last night , but Eng
land Is not so averse to tills war as she waa
to a war with the United States. One
could feel the strain In the air.
The oditors-ln-chlef of all the large dallies
were sent for by Chamberlain and closstsd
with him for some time , after which ho
went to the Isle of Wight to see the queen.
By her command ho bad been sending mes
sages by wire and papers by messengers
tw'co a day , so the queen was well Informed
before commanding him to visit her. The
whole situation therefore beara an ugly
expression. Some sort of word has been
sent out to the. army reserves , and at the
presentation of some army medals by Prin
cess Louise the regular army generals de
tailed to the volifnteers took occasion to
declare that the volunteers were never ! In
better condition nnd the regular officers were
pressing forward from all over the country
to notify the war office of their willingness
to join the force.
BELIEVE WAR. AT HAND.
A glance at the Chronicle reveals the fact
that war with Germany lii believed to be
close at hand and discloses the fact that the
government has decided to apprise the Eng
lish nation that It Is facing a crisis. No
such words have been read , and ino such
mca used In English papers In many a day.
'England nnd Germany , Serious Crisis , " such
a the bold headline. Then follows the Ber-
In dispatches asserting that the Transvaal Is
: o throw off English suzerainty and declare
herself Independent.
"Also , " says the correspondent , "the step
already taken of changing the German con
sulate at Pretoria to a consulate general will
10 followed. " the Boorsen Courier states , "by
the appointment of a resident German min
ster there. "
The editor of thoChronicleunder the in
spiration of the colonial office , starts his
leader thus : "Warlike Utterances. " "The
patience and good L'ens-e > of the English people
Bland todiy In ceert of relnforcsment. We
obscrvo a haste , not to say a panic-stricken
: all for the Immediate summoning of the de
fensive forces of the empire. Wo aasume
that th-ey will bo ready. We expect they
will ba adequate. We lupe their employment
will not bo advertised In the spirit of a vul-
; ir and timorous haste. Peace Is ono of
: ho greatest of British Interests , and above
all , peace with America Is not merely an In-
: orest , It Is a first condition of honorable
Ifo for both peoples. "
The editorial goes on to say that no dispute
Jotween England and America , however em
bittered , t'hould ' be allowed to proceed to the
extremity of war. The leader Is a column
eng and ill of It Is directed to America.
Then comes the treatment of the German
situation In a second editorial. It begins. ' :
'The tension Is BO extreme at the present
moment that every man In these Islands
should fosl resting on. him a heavy responsi
bility. " Continuing , the writer tuys : . "The
American question is the more Important of
: ho two , because the tlea that bind our people
ple ore closer than our rotations to Ger-
nanv. "
STAND ON TUB TREATY.
The lltor quotes the vital clause of the
convention with the Transvaal of 184 , en
forcing suzerainty over that country7 and
idds : "No language can be plainer , and we
lave simply to Inform the German emperor
wo abide by tbat language as completely as
vo do by our Intention to respect the Internal
tberty and Independence of the South African
republic. " In tills article Cecil Rhodes Is
referred to as a "turbulent South African
dictator , " a phrasp phowlng which way the
vlnd blowa In Africa and that the wires from
Africa have bon gagged.
The Dally Telegraph publishes the news
hat the Royal Lancaster regiment , which
las started from India , will disembark at
ha Capo. Another reglmeut of equal
ctrength Is on Its way from India to the
2npo. ' A considerable force will shortly
eavp Eqgland for tbo same point. Thcse-
rcglmcut ! ) are to be selected In the First
army corps. A first class cruiser has been
ordered to Dclagoa bay , tbo harbor where
ho German ship Adler Is already. Further
et , a second cruiser Is on Its way to Delagoa
> ay , but both are third clarc cruisers und
Ikely to bt cleverly handled by the British.
Sir Edwlu Arnold begins his leader In theae
characteristic words : "It la nbt trough In
heso days to have merely a just c.iusj , Jus-
Ice , Englishmen are painfully discovering ,
nust wear the panoply of strength , and we
uro therefore glad to announce that her
najei'ty's government Is confident In the
conectnesa of Its action In the matter of
ho Transvaal. Resolute to maintain tl\t \
rights of the queen , It has directed naval
and military meamires to be taken which
vlll put anything like a surprise or a de-
lance In South Africa as altogether out of
bo question. "
Ho imkes no reference to Germany or Its
mpjrqr or to the fact that the German am-
mssailor called on Lord Salisbury today ,
vhlch I cannot help but think must have been
or the purpose of ami unclug that Gcr-
lany Intends to rend a minister to the Trans-
aal and recognize her Intlopindcnce.
KAISER MADE A MISTAKE.
The Standard , tnipposnl to be closer to the
government than even the TJnit-j , begins Ito
cader with a dl'cuislon of the ponltlon of
lu German tmipeior. It tayj that he ha
tade a mlttake In counting cu France. "K -
iiitlally the intention of the emperor nan to
combine against this country Ine efforts of
the great power * , " the editor says , "and to
confront us with demand ! ) which would not
only wound our prcstlg * , but would subvert
our p-sltlon as the paramount authority In
the political system of South Africa. " The
editor goes en to ay that Emperor William
mafa a grave error In his calculation. In-
Meat' of getting Franco to play the game of
her cneml s to strike an old friend , the re
sult U to bring about the return , to the tone
of cordiality which has for tome time btan
abrcnt In French references to this country.
That Is the tone of th ? wlule cdltorl.il , which
flatly declares that "It cannot bo tea em
phatically stated we are determined to re
main the only nation having direct political
authority In the whole group to which the
Transvaal geog'raphlcally bjlongs. "
Even the Uilly News charges nil the trouble
to the German emperor , but stoutly Insists
that tha remit will not bo to cans : England
to waive a particle of her rights.

HAVANA , Jan. 8. It was announced In
three dispatches last night that the sound of
cnt.nonndlng and rifle firing had been heard
yesterday In the neighborhood of Gunnnja , a
town of 4,000 Inhabitants , In the province of
Plnar del Rio , about forty-five miles south cf
th l.i city.
Details of the engagement just received
show that Ocusral Navarro , between
Guanaja and Cfflba do Agua , overtook a
numerous Insurgent force under Zayas ni.d
other leaders. During the three hours'
lighting which followed tiie Spanish artillery
was called Into play and the Insurgents wore
routed with n loss of twenty-three killed and
forty-thrco wounded left on the field. The
Insurgents are sold to have carried away
many more of their wounded and they left
seventeen Remington rifles behind them.
Gonewl Navarro pursued the Insurgents )
and overtook their rear guard at Celba do
Agua. and In the skirmish which followed
four Insurgents were killed and three were
taken prisoners. On the government side It
Is announced cnly fcur officers nnd thirty
soldiers wore wounded In both engagements.
Three of the soldiers sustained serious
wounds.
A dispatch from Matanzas tills morning
says a body of 400 Insurgents recently tried
to compel the garrison of Ttabo , In the Car-
donas district , to surrender. Upon the refusal
cf the troops to give up the fort the latter
was attacked , but the Insurgents were rc-

iroceoded to administer the law of Judge
.ynch by suspending the two negroes to u
allroad trestle about a mile from town.
Vhen thU was done , at a signal from tli4
coder , the mob fired a volley or some 200
r 300 [ . 'hots Into the negroes , almost per
orating their bodies , after which they
quietly dispersed , Simpson confessed his
guilt before ho was banged , while Fuller
nalntalned that ho was Innocent until the
ast. The mob made no attempt at Ulsgulso.

folds of tlie American flag , smiled down
upon the ft-stlvltles of pure nnd un
adulterated democracy at the Mlllard
hotel last night. They were flanked
by those of Thomas Jefferson and
Secretary of State Olncy. Consequently
all the Idols of- the democratic party looked
down with complacent ( 'yes as their follow
ers or thtlr supporters , as the case might
be , literally fulfilled the eleventh command
ment , eat , drink and bo merry , even If they
had not much to bo merry about.
The occasion was the fifth annual banquet
of the Jacksonlnn club of Omaha , hsld on
the anniversary of the day on which the-
pre-eminent hero of the club , Old Hickory ,
beat the English at the battle of New Or
leans. In consequence , ths date was most
appropriately chosen In the democratic mind ,
Inasmuch as the present policy of President
Cleveland , the second hero of the club , prom-
Iws to do all It can to bring about a similar
occurrence. That this was fully appreciated
by the banqueter was evident from the ex-
premlons of the speakers after the earlier
part of tha evening had passed way.
The 125 or more guests commenced to
gather In the corridors of the hotel at S:30 :
o'clock , the hour nt which the Invitations
called them together , but It was a full half
hour later when th& march to the banqueting
chamber on the floor above was taken up. In
thd meantime the democrat'c host disclosed
the probable fate of Its party to the strains
of a hidden band , which discoursed such
cheerful airs that when the table was reached
not one of the guests but thought the Jack-
'sonlan club was bound to lead the party to a
glorious victory next fall.
JEFFERSONIAN SIMPLICITY.
The dining room was arranged with the
proverbial Jeffersonlan simplicity , The en
tire decorations consjstcd of the portraits of
tha four democrats mentioned above and a
single huge American flag , which formed a
background to the short end of the thres-
cornered square at which the toastmasler
and speakers of the evening were seated. In
front'of them stretched two long white
robed table ? , adorned with shining glass and
potted plants and huge plates of fruit , about
which the remainder of the guests wcro
grouped ;
Tlu menu was claborte , and In line with
those which have graced the previous ban-
qpets of the club. It appeared to be fully
appreciated by ths guests from "blue points"
to "cigars , " especially as there was a plenti
ful supply of sauturno and pontet canet , for
It wjs 10:30 : , a full hour and a half after
seats had been taken at the table , when the
cigars wsro lighted , and Toastmai'tor ' Francis
A. Brjgan arose to announce the' first toast
of the evening.
Before doing so , however , Mr. Brogan
briefly spoke of the cause of the gathering
and read a fev letters of regret from promi
nent persons who had found It Impossible
to be In attendance. Of these there was a
brief ono from Governor Holcomb nnd an
other from David Ovtrmeyer of Topeka. W.
J. Bryan also sent his regrets , and In doing
so wrote as follows :
"I am persuaded that no candidate who
tries to undo what Jackson did can win
a similar victory , oven though the attempt
Is made In ths name of democracy. Since
wo Imitate what we admire , the annual
consideration of the- words and acts of such
a man iu > Jackson ought to stimulate us to
higher citizenship and purer democracy , nnd
the present time Is certainly opportuna for
such a stimulation. When great combina
tions of capital are crushing out competi
tion and levying tribute upon all produc
tive Industry , when ) corporations.1 created
by law are assuming to bo grcatir than the
government which created them , nhen the
money changers are seeking tocontrol
legislation In tha Interest of the
creditor class , when some of our statesmen
favor the employment of foreign bankers to
protect our treasury rather than use silver
us u standard money , and when plutocracy
Is making a bold and Impudent bid for the
sppport of tbo democratic party , we need to
make a pilgrimage' to the grave of Old
Hickory and Invoke the aid of his spirit. "
Alexander H. Vance of Mllfoid sent his
regrets on account of sickness , together with
the- following :
"The democratic crped Is a metallic cur
rency on the precious metals , silver and
gold , equal nnd exact justice to all men , the
complete subserviency of the military to the
civil government , the lowest taxation con
sistent with good government , freedom of
the press , conscience and of trade and armed
resistance to all echemes of conquest for
either political Influence or territorial ag-
grandlzmcnt by European nations on this
western hemisphere. "
ToaetmaBter Urogan stated that W. S. Pop-
pleton , who had been expected tci respond
to "Andrew Jackson , " found It Impossible to
1)3 present , and at once Introduced T. J.
Mahoney , who responded to the toast , "The
Monroe Doctrine , "
Mr. . Mahoney began by dating that efforts
had been made to chow that the Monroe
doctrine was not expounded by President
Monroe , but by President John Qulncy Adams ,
or perhaps some one else. He spent wine
time In thawing that It uas first
stated by President Monro ? , and then
briefly outlined Itu effect since 1820. He held
that even If It was not first uttered by Monroe
t , uas "good , sound , democratic , United States
doctrine , as It forbid the propagation on the
western hemlfpucre of any monarchlal gov
ernment , either directly or Indirectly. " He
admitted that U might not as yet bo a part
of International law , but stated that the
principle It embodied , the right of a
country to defend Itsslf even from
threatened dangera an > l to decide
what Intrusion was menacing , \ \ & % recognized
by the nations. He asserted that the people
of this country were ready "to make It a
part of the International cod : and enforce It
as such , " and that all who opposed the doc
trine were doing more to bring about war
than those who supported H and Its Interpre
tation by President Cleveland ,
Mr , Mahoney'a speech was plentifully In
terspersed with references to President
Cleveland and his policy , nnd itch were en
thusiastically greeted by his hearers.
NEBRASKA'S PRIDE. ,
tn responding to the toast , "Our Common
wealth. " U. A. Clark of Stella * ald that the
country of which Nebraska was n pirt should
nut only pride- Itself upon thp richness of Its
material resources , but nhould have occasion
to take pride In Its following of the prlnc'plcs
of Jackson and Jefferson nnd Incidentally
President Cleveland , Ho spoke of the division
of tha democracy of the states and professed
that the differences would be smoothed away
and that a "greater and grander democracy
tliiin ever was seen before would rise In Us
stead. "

The announcement made In yesterday' *
Dee regardlnR the suspension of work by
the South Omaha Water Work * company tvns
a great mirprlse to n largo number of people
In the city and a disappointment to many

John On ens , ono of Mr. Habcock's em

Inch pipe and the other cir with twelve-
liich pipe. This plpo Is to be used , It Js
said , to extend the mains In the yards to
connect with the new mains bring laid by
the American Water Works company.
In speaking about the matter lart night
Councilman Itlanchard , who voted against
granting the privileges naked by the South
Oti'nha Water Works compmy , said : "I
told you ao ; I sutpectud It wag a bluff nil
the time. " Jack Walters when questioned
ot.ty laughed and ftnld nothing. John Ilyan ,
nnGthcr councilman who worked hard for
the new company , regretted that It had
gene under , 03 he expected the proposed Im

of Idle men , thus taking a load off the city

went on llloom's bond when he was arrested
