LINCOLN, Feb. 16,-Spoclal.)-Thc Uni versity Hoard of Regents adjourned at noon todoy to meet next April and there Is every iodlcstlon that a permanent chancellor will lie chosen at that time to succeed Acting Chancellor Hosscy, who desired to rctlro from the executive olUce nf the Institution and return to his former position at the head of th department of botany. It w.i the Intention of the regents to make a se lection at the meeting which adjourned to day, but owing to the absence of two mem bers of the board the matter was deferred until the next meeting. In his report to the board Dr. Hesscy requested the rc gmtH to appoint his successor as soon an possible and there, appears tu be no disposi tion on the part of the board to delay nc. tlon any longer than In absolutely necessary. Superintendent Wolfo of South Omaha, formerly a profefsor In the State university, was In tho city yesterday and while hero held a consultation with several popooratlc members of tho board. Mr. Wolfe's name has been mentioned In connection with the chancellorship nf tho Institution, but on account of a decided opposition to his selec tion whlrh ban developed among the mem ber!) of the faculty It Is not probable that tho regentrf will attempt to plarc him lit the position now held by Dr. Ilessey. An finer plan suggested by tho friends of the ex-professor la to havo him reinstated In 1.1 former position In the university and to promote him to tho chancellorship after wards nhotild n vacancy occur In that posi tion.

Not hovlng bis naturallza ton papers with him at tho time, he could not prove that ho was a citizen of the United Slates. This story Is not believed at the ftatehnuse, for tho reason that there Is no such thing as compulsory enlistment In Kngland. Governor I'oynter will refer the request to Congressman Neville, who will be asked to lay the case beforo the proper authorities In Washington.
