BOYD'S' ' TITLE CLEAR
FCOXTIXCKII VHOM rinst PAOK/J _
to assume again your rightful duties of ROV-
ernorl"
"I have not made nny plans In that direc
tion. In fact , I have thought moro about the
question of having ray citizenship placed be
yond the shadow of ft doubt than I tiavo
about the governorship. I shall exorcise no
unnccossnry haste In the muttorof taklnctho
chnlr. I do not know wl.nt General Thnyur
intends to do. When I learn his Intentions
then I shall donldo when to go to Lincoln. I
shall not use any unpcntlcmanly haste In
taking possession of the governor's ofllco , for
as I sold at the outset I nm governor Jiist the
same whether I nm In Omnha or Lincoln and
X suppose Oeneral Thayer understands that
io must ndt act a ? governor ono moment
nftor the decision of the supreme court has
declared that my tight totho oDlco Is n law
ful ono nnd ho is only a private
altlzon who has been acting as
governor during the hearing of the question
before the court of last resort. "
With regard to his appointments the gov
ernor said ho had nothing to say. Ho would
f.ltend to nil those matters In duo time , but
Jld not * co the necessity of any rusti orX-on-
fusion about tbo matter.
( loiipnil Cnurln Di'llghti'd.
General Cowln is In a very hnppy frame of
mind. Thcro was u great , broad amllc play
ing over his countenance when af.r. rop-
rcsontatlvo called upon him shortly after
luncheon.
"I would rather have argued and won this
case , " said the general , "than bo president
Jj of the United States with Chill thrown in.
from tbr time I argued t'uo question In the
hUpremo couit of the United States until the
present tlmo I had no doubt of the correct
ness of my position and very little doubt but
thnt the supreme court would hold with my
contention.
"Now I wish to say that the delay of tno
( uprcmo court In bunding down its decision
w not unusual for so Important n case. I
Ihlnk the decision was handed down as soon
w It was written , corrected nnd approved by
the court.
"Tho question of citizenship by admission
of a stnto goes to thn very fundamental prin
ciples of a romibllcnn form of government.
It Is ono of the most important cases politi
cally 1 don't mean by this In a partisan
. sense that the supreme court has over do-
tlverod. "
Will TlmyiT Ylclil Oni
The ull important question now in the
mmes of the citizens is , will Thayer ylold
the ofllco cracoiully and when will Boyd make
n formal demand for his scat )
When the decision was reported a month
ago Governor Thayer is reported to have said
that In cnsn the federal sutfremo court decided
that Uoyd was eligible to the ofllco ho
( Thayer ) would atoncoand cheerfully vacate
the oftlco.
Attorney Hansom said | to a reporter today
that unless a stipulation wcio made between
the opposing attorneys ot the contestants the
decision would not bo effective for slxtv days.
Ho had no Idea , howuvcr , that Thayer's n'-
toruovs would interpose the slightest objection
"
tion "to Boyd's assumption of his ofhclal
duties at once ,
. , Qcnonil Cowln , Boyd's chief counsel in the
| S ! celebrated case , said that ho knoxv of no legal
impediment to the Immediate assumption by
Oovornor Boyd of the ofllco to which he was
jlected. The general was highly jlated at
the signal success 01 his client , and received
the congratulations of his friends through
out the day.
It Is said that Governor Boyd will not take
up his residence in Lincoln at once , prefer
ring to take his own tlmo. Ho Is reported to
have said that ho did not bellovo Governor
Thayer would wnnt to hold the oflice nftor
the supreme court had declared Boydaclt-
Uen.

Governor Boyd was agaia soon at bis ofllco
last evening , and after a little desultory talk
on the number of congratulatory telegrams
he had received during the afternoon , another
strenuous effort was made to interview him
on his probable course after resuming bis
seat as governor of the state.
"As I stated this afternoon , " observed
Governor Boyd , "I nn as much , the governor
of Nebraska now as 1 will over bo , but just
when I will go down to Lincoln I cannot
tell. "
"Do you anticipate nny delay from any
lourco whatever in assuming the roinsi"
"Well , Icannoftoll just what will bouooes-
lary , but I do not Intend to'exorclso any undue -
duo haste in tbo matter. " '
"And you think ex-Governor Thnycr will
acquiesce gracefully ! "
"I certaitily do. I oven look for a letter
from him In the morning acuuowledglng my
rights. "
"And you positively decline to say any
thing about your appointments ) "
"I most certainly do. In fact , I could not
say anything until after I have consulted my
friends. No , I have not a word to give you
on that head. "

OMAHA BHK , was here today. When ho heard
that the supreme court had rendered a deci
sion in favor of Boyd , ho said : "Well , wo
had the right tip on that news nearly a
month ago. "
"Aro you satisfied with the decision ? " ho
was asked.
"Yes , " ho replied , "thoro never was any
question us to Boyd's election. lie. was a
citizen of the territory before it became a
state and It would hardly be right to deprive
him of citizenship after statehood was de
clared , That would Do to make It n crlmo to
have boon a citizen of the territory. "
"But you do not stand by Boyd polit
ically ! "
"By no moans , but bo was legally elected
and should never have boon put out of the
governor's chair. Our parly made a nnslnice ,
that's all. "

FKRMONT , Mob. , Feb. 1. [ Special to Tun

here today about noon. When the report
bad been confirmed there was a general out

KlicouriK : 's Onrzn's Men.
SAX A'NTOXIO , Tex. , Jan. 31. El Mundo is
the name of a Mexican newspaper at Laredo
owned by the widow of General Iguaclo
Martinez. . Martinez was a bitter political
opponent of the Diaz government and was
exiled from Moxlco. About six months ago
be was assassinated in the dark in the
Ltrcets of Laredo J > y two horsemen , who es
caped without identification. Nothing fur
ther over developed , but It is believed that
the assassins wnro secret agents ot the Mexi
can government employed for the purpose.
The paper is published by the widow of
General Martinez , nnd is a staunch adherent
of Gaiv.a and bis cause. The issue just
from the press declares that Gurza
is organizing an army in the state of
'
Tnnmulipas and Cohuila' that the people are
with him ; that capital and the military are
interested In the revolution , but fearing tbo
wrath of the Mexican government Imvo not
yet openly declared their position. El Mundo
further declares that the thousands ot revo
lutions which the American troops are try ing
to prevent from organizing are under the
command ot ( Jonoral Bcnvidcs and not
Garza , as has been said , and thai Garza is in
"
"Cohuila at Iho head of from UO.OOO to 50,000
men.
men.El Mundo concludes an editorial In the fol
lowing language : "Caterlno Garza's cause
is much stronger , notwithstanding the nctiv
ity of the Mexican government. Thcro is no
doubt the Mexican people , with few excop
lions , nro dissatisfied with the present nil
ministration. Onward people. The hour of
restoration is near. Hall to the sacred rights
of the people. Down with tyrants. "

which ensued thrco poiicomon were Wounded.
This preliminary conflict caused Irritation ,
both atnonc the police and the railway em

wore attacked by a body of men nrmod with
bottles , stones and revolvers , and wcivi
driven from the station to the street , A
tiollco force sent cgnlnst the riot

The lighting interrupted transit on Iho
road , the employes abandoning the trains.
Four policemen and three other persons nra

During the remainder of the day there was
some desultory lighting and at S p. m. a largo

There was a general scare among passengers
on the trams. WOIIIPII fainted and many
persons ran away and abandoned th"ir lug-
gaire , part of which was opened nnd rifled.
Some persons think that there nro political
schemes behind this , whllo others attribute
the disturbances to Iho instigation of an agitator
tater named Vinhas who Is endeavoring to
organize a workingmen's party and who , it
Is said , wishes to ho appointed director of

.Salvation Army Attacked In 1'arlH.
LONDON' , Jan. ill. Tboro was rioting In
Eastbourne today caused by tbo Salvatipn
army holding a special celebration to com
memorate the founding of the corps. After
the usual morning service ? the baivationists
nmrched through the streets under pohco
protection and were disturbed only by run
ning comments und chad from the crowds on
tbo sidewalk. In the afternoon a arizzllng
ruin thai had been falling having ceased a
mob rapidly collected at the Salvation army
citadel , and as the soldiers "filed out" slog-
Jug tholr processional hymn they were sub-
Koctod to moru chaff , accompanied by the
lineitK of a ribald parody , yelling and hoot-
Ing. Savoral well drosscd men formoil tbo
corps , twenty abreast surging up , followed
by the army , to the bench where It was pro
posed to hold a ineotiiifr. Along the whole
route windows , balconies and even carriages
in tbo streets were tilled with cltlc.ens and
visitors watching the HCOHO.
A largo mob awaited the army at the sea
front , with howls thai drowned the voices. of
the army lasses. The police bad great diffi
culty in' clearing a way for the soldiers who
had to cling tenaciously to their instruments
and Hags without-daring to oven attempt to
play a note.
Directly the service begun the mob swept
down on the army , shouting , "Throw them
into the soi. " The 1'orco of police was aug
mented and they behaved mot creditably ,
resisting rush after rush , bltbouuh nearly
overpowered by numbers.
The Si'.lvntioimllsts were pelted with pub-
Dies by their foes throughout the hour they
remained on the ocach.
When their services \\orosoeniingly ended ,
although not a word of il had been heard ,
sfivoral members of Iho army commenced
their return march. They made the pnrndo
with the utinosi difficulty , their assnilants
malting frequent rallies , butfalling to capture
the Salvationists' Hag. Desperate hand to
hand encounters with policemen wore
continued. A few clorsymen nnd soldiers
were present , bul held aloof. When
the struggling crowd had reached a
point opposite the Burlington hotel , the
police bavin ; ; become exhausted , .another
rally was made and proved successful , The
hated Hag was seized from its stalwart
bearer and torn into shred : . Caps were torn
from the heads of the Salvationists and
tossed in the air or kicKed Into the roadway
iimid execrations. Some frail looking
lassos , " who swooned from pain and fright ,
were nearly trampled upon.
Tbo scone of violence was continued until
the army retreated into their "citadel , " and
oven then the mob was loth to disperse , and
still came Into collision with tno polico.
Several of Iho Salvationists were badly in
jured and the uniforms of all were spoiled.

PAIIIS , Jan. at. According to advices from
St. Petersburg the czar Intends to initlato
measures for thu restoration of serfdom
among the peasants. Hoports from many
district officials havn concurred in the state
ment that the increase of population in the
village * Is so great that the land belonging lo
Iho "mil's" or local communes Is insufficient
to support all members. The government ,
with ths view of remedying the
iivil , proposes to allot to the peasants
vasts tracts of land under condllions
similar to those ofdorf ton uro. One-third of
the hnrvosi is lo no stored In the communal
magazines lor the support of tbo peasants ;
one-third is to ho sold by tbo government for

For five minutes the train disrmtchor's
oflleonlX hud boon pninftilly qulot ,
says tlio Now York Sun. It was shortly
nftor midnight , and nil the wires on Iho
eastern nnd western divisions were mo-
montarlly stilled. A depressed foollnp
had freighted tlio ntmosphoro In the
ollleo nil the evening. It htul affected
ovoryono. Even Iho wires appeared to
aufTor from it. When the Bounders
hogan to rattle oil "os , os , 03 , " which
prepared the dispatchers for the report
of some train passing a far away station ,
they sounded frightfully loud. Several
times Dispatcher DoKorcst had shud
dered and screwed down the armature
of his instrument HO tlutt it would not
make so much noise.
At a quarter past 12 the deep stillness
of the room , onlv broken by the slow ,
monotonous tickfng ot the clock by
which the watches of all tlio employes
of tile roa.il were regulated once a day ,
echoed with the words of the telegraph.
The operator at F reported to Do-
Rpatchor Do Forest tint Conductor Mc-
Gill of extra 100 , loaded with fresh beef
bound east , wauled to know if ho could
have ten minutes of the tlmo of No. 1 ,
the west-bound night express , to make
"Old 10 just needs a little shaking up ,
McGill says , to tuko the kinks out of
its joints , " the operator added.
Do Forest casi his eye down upon his
train shunt , which told him at a glance
where every train out upon the road was.
Then ho looked at the clock. , T was
fifteen miles from F . If ho did not
allow MeGill to use ton minutes of the
express train's time the moat train
would surely bo delayed for an hour or
moro. All the dispatchers had orders
from the superintendent to give the
meat trains as much show as possible ,
t.bo road being bound by a contract to
iret them through in a specillcd timo.
So DC Forest sent the following ollleial
order :
To Conductor and Engineer Extra 100 :
Eastbound Extra No. Ono Hundred
(100) ( ) has until twelve fifty ( I2 : * > 'J ) n. m.
to make J against westbound No.
One (1) ( ) . , Supt.
Conductor MuGill signed the order
and the operator at Vrepeated it
back according lo the custom. Dis
patcher Do Forest "O. K'd" it. A min
ute or two later the operator at F
said "OV three times to attract Do
Forest's attention , and then reported
that Extra 100 had just arrived at 12:10 :
u. in. , and departed at 12la. :
The dospatcher jotted down the time
on the irain shoot and then began calling
the operator at T , three stations
east of J , where the extra freight
had orders to run. Ho wanted to Bond
the duplicate of the order to the express
train so that it would wait at .T ( or
the freight. The operator at
T did not answer , and after
a moment or more of steady
calling Do Forest stopped. Dispatcher
St. John , who worked the second _ trick
from ii p. m. to 11 , in. , was ill , and his
work had fallen upon his two colleagues.
And then , to make matters worse , Dis
patcher Thatcher had boon taken sud
denly ill early in the forenoon and Do
Fore'st was got oul of bed to keep the
road from getting clogged up. There
were three other dispatchers in the
ollieo , but they kept the western divi
sion of the "road in operation. They
were not familiar with the eastern divi
sion , and consequently were of no uso.
This necessitated Do Forest's turn
ing out. Ho had sat at the
desk since early in the morn
ing , and with the terrible strain of
the position was in no condition for duty
that night. So when ho failed to raise
the operator at T , ho dropped his
head and stared at the train shoot on
the desk before him. lie was not aslcun ,
but there was a temporary Innao in his
mind. The night express had passed
D , and the operator there had ro-
Dorted it. This made it absolutely
necessary to got the orders to T before
fore it ran that station , as there was no
other telegraph oflice between that
point and J , where the freight was to
meet it , open at night.
Dispatcher Do Forest sat motionless
nt his desk , while the big clock ticiccd
oil the seconds loudly. Finally the east
ern wire opened.
"Os , os , os , No. 1 passed on timoT , "
said the sounder slowly.
Dp Forest straightened up in his
chair , his face wearing an expression
startling and wild. lie reached for the
key of the instrument , nilit his lingers
played upon it UK he asked the operator
al T to repeat thu report. There had
been no mistake. DcForest jumped
from his chair with a cry ; Up and
down the otllct , ho walked , wringing his
hands and sobbing.
' My God , what have I done , what
have I donoV"
Intuition gave everyone else in the
ollleo an idea of what had happened.
None of them asked him. They merely
gathered around the table and glanced
nt the train shoot and then at the book
which contained copies of the train
orders. One look told tlio story. DeForest
Forest continued to pace Iho room cry
ing as if his heart would break , and
glancing attho big clock at each turn.
The night was thick and black , > It
was perfectly plain that only a miracle
could provenl the * heavy moat t"ain ,
running on fast time , ami the Hying
night express from clashing togoihor.
If the oporrtor at had reported Mo-
Gill's departure correctly , the others
in the room hoard Do Forest arguing
out loud Iho two trains would incut on
Iho Hats several miles west of . ] .
Tlio engineers might catch a glimpse of
the approaching headlights , which upon
a single track are indicative of danger ,
in time to prevent a frightful accident.
Hut the chalices were IhatMcGill had
not pulled out of F for five or ton
minutes after ho was reported. That
was a common thing when Iho operators
and trainmen wore on friendly terms.
It was called "stcnlini : time.1' ' While
the olllcials knew that it existed , they
could never ohargo it , because thu train
men protected the opuralors if they
failed to make their runs quickly
enough , In such an event ns that the
conductor would report lo the dispatcher
that ho had bean detained by a hot box ,
or some other imaginary trouble. .
If McGill had stolen any time Do For
est knew that the two trains would
moot on the curve a few miles woht with
out a moment's warning. Nothing could
save them in such an event.
Dispatcher Do Forest continued to
pace up and down the ollleo , Ms eyes
tlxod unon the clock nnd his mind upon
the accident that ho felt must happen.
Ho talked to himself , tracing the two
trains rushing on to their doom in the
darkness.
"Thero goes McGill , " ho said in tones
that made the others shiver ; "there
goes McGill down the grade on this uld
ot Calico Junction. Bill Brown's got old
nineteen wide open , God , but how he'll
er.il across the Aivts ! "
Do Forest glanced nt the clock again.
It was 12:40. : Ho slghod heavily and
continued :
"Look nt No. 1 sailing through J .
Why , she should Btopl But it won't
matter. Kvorybody knows enough to
keep out of her way. "
Then the poor follow nubsldod a mo-
mont. It was only for iv moment , how-
over. Ho was standing bosldo his desk
with his wild eyes upon the train shoot.
Suddenly ho became possessed of his
mental faculties again , und sank into
his chair all a-tromhllng ami with sweat
standing upon his forehead.
"Look , look , boys ! " ho moaned.
"There's McGill Hying around the curve
just beyond the Hats from the west and
No. 1 from the east. Don't you sno
thorn ? They should Imvo mot at , T . "
A moment later ho shouted : "Did
you hear that crush'Do you see the
lire1/ "
It was 12:50 : by tlio clock. Do Forest
was all In a heap in his chair. Ho was
laughing ironically. It waa the laugh
of n maniac. Ills companions were
motionless. None dared to Interrupt
htm for fear of violence. Various
stations had been calling Do Forest to
got orders for other trains , but for a fo-.v
minutes the sounder made no impression
upon him. Hut when the day operator
at .1 called , Do Forest pulled his
chair up to the table instantly and an
swered. The operator at J was ex
ceedingly nervous , it was easy to tell by
thn way lie handled his key. The mes
sage was this :
"Extra eas.t-botmd freight No. 100
collided with west-bound express No. 1
on the curve just west of the big Hats
al-.out rJ-15. : Both trains in the ditch
and on lire. At least a dozen killed out
right and many badly Injured. Track
completely blocked. McGiu , . "
Do Forest tool : the message without a
break , lie was as linn as a rock , and
not a nerve in his body so much as
quivered. Ho was the Do Forest of old
again. In a moment the wire was hum
ming with orders. Wrecking crews
were ordered out from all noar-by
stations , and orders were issued to the
wrecking trains stationed at either end
of Iho division io proceed to the scoao
of the wreck. I'liysieiaiiH and surgeons
were summoned , and a special train was
made up and started for the wreck , with
orders to pick up wrecking crows and
assistance as it passed the various
stations.
Sandwiched in between all those
numerous orders came additional de
tails from the scene of the disaster.
Message after message came to Do For
est , giving particulars , and cacli ono in
creased the number of killed until they
footed up an even twenty. Then the
names of the victims , so fat * as could bo
learned began to come in , and later a
description of the unidentified dead. It
was plain , however , that the dispatcher
did not pay any attention to the names
of the killed and injured. lie received
thorn mechanically.
Do Forest remained all night with his
hand upon the key to the telegraph in
strument. From the time the ollleial
news of the accident came to him over
tlio wires from .T ho never looked up
from his desk , never spoke a word to his
colleagues. Ho appeared to bo totally
oblivious to the presence of any ono.
At exactly 7 o'clock in the morning
Dispatcher Thatcher arrived to take his
regular trick. The track had been
cleared suHlciontly to lot trains by , and
everything was running on lime. DeForest
Forest arose when Thatcher entered
and put on his overcoat. The /vild look
returned to his eye ? . Ho glanced at the
clock and parsed out of the ollieo.
Ho was never seen again , and not a
word was ever hoard of him.
A I'rlcml ol I In ; Itoail.
The trains ou one of the railroads load
ing into Atlanta are notoriously slow ,
according to the Djtroil Free Press , and
they are on that account much fre
quented by tramps , who can readily
calch on as they pull out of stations.
Not long ago , as a passenger train
stopped a water tank , a tramp , dusty
and tired looking , slipped oft a truck
and approached the conductor.
"Ain't you the conductor ? " ho asked.
"What worn you doing undo ? that
car ? " was all the information ho re
ceived. '
"IJidin1 ; you didn't s'poso I was
walkin' , did you ? "
"Well , wliiit do you want ? I'm the
conductor. "
"For the Lord's sake , mister , can't
you put more tuaiu on , or put a brakeman -
man oul behind to push her , or do somo-
Ihing to git along faster ? I want to git
to Atlanta before the exposition isovor. "
"Come olT , " growled the conductor.
"If you don't like it why don't you
walk ? "
"Hocauso the president of this road is
a friend of mine , " and the tramp drew
himself up in a digniHcd way , "and if 1
walk I'll beat the train there about
oiirht hours , and that'll set competin *
lines to makin' unkind remarks. 1 ain't
irolu' back on a friend in no sich low
down manner as that , cvon if I didn't gil
to Atlanta in time to make New Year's
calls ; you hear mo , cully conduo. "
The conductor gave him a seat in Iho
smoking after thnt , and ho went to sloop
and forgot thnt there was any such a
place on tlio map as Atlanta.
