When Tin : Bun correspondent this afternoon
Inquired of the clerk ot the supreme court
whether ox-Attorney General Garland or
anybody else ropresontlng Governor Boyd
( had nmdo'or would likely make any further
I request for the issuance of a mandate to ox-
Governor Thayer to deliver the governorship
, to Governor Boyd , that official said : "No
J further request Is necessary and none is ox-
icctad. The office has boon turned ever to
overnor Boyd , and therefore the issuance
of a decree or mandate is not important ex
cept to complete the record. In the course
of time the decree will eo to tbo supreme
'court ' of NoDrasKuand become a' pare of the
records of that court , mcanwhllo Governor
JBoyd has tbo office nnd Is exorcising tbo
! Junctions of It and thorois no necessity for
Governor Boyd's attorney to make any request -
' quest whatever. "
Later In the day at the request of Mr.
'May ' , tbo partner of General Garland , tbo
'mandate ' was formally Issued.
To TUB Br.n correspondent Mr. May said ;
' 1 only askoa to have tbo mandate issued to
day for the nt'.rposo of keeping tbe record
clear. Were U not , for the record no man
date would bo requested. "
Secretary lllalno Not Disturbed.
Secretary Qlaino , despite the pain which It
' " , have caused him to publish the per
sonal statement about the distressing char-
nclor of bis domestic history , was not at all
Biulanclioly today. On the contrary , bo was
at bis ofllco In the btato denartmont in an
unusually cheerful mood , laughing and chat
ting , at > Is bis wont when ho has disposed of
some question which bus perplexed him.
Mr. BUino was aslred to make publlo tbe lot-
Id r which Father Ducoy * wrote him in
answer to the stinging letter In which Mr.
Blu'.no criticized the priest for uniting
young James U. Blaine , a minor and
without the consent of bis parents , in mar-
rlago with Miss Novins. Mr. Blaine re
ceived this request considerately , but urged
that the propriety ot private correspondence
made it desirable that tbo publication of the
letter written by Father Ducoy should como
from the man who sent tbo lot tor rather than
from him who received it. Ho said that he
fend no objection to Father Uuccy's publish
ing the Setter if ho wished. This statement
moots tbo only criticism which has been
beard today from any source upon Mr ,
Bluino's course In making publioonly his let
ter to Father Duc y without giving tbo
lattcr's reply.

To Indemnify Iowa Citizens.
This morning Representative Dolliver an-
poarod before the committee on public lands
and made an argument In support of the bill
to Indemnify tbe settlers on Dos Moines river
who wore being deprived of their homes by
the ( Incision of the supreme court. Mr Dolli
ver reviewed the decision comprehensively
and showed that congress would not bo
establishing a precedent by giving tbo settlers
tlors a money Indemnity for their losses. Ho
cited the fact that congress , in the early part
of the century , appropriated $5,000,000 to
mane good losses sustained by those who
hud tolcon up lands on the Yazoo grant in
Mississippi , and also that $80,000 was appro
priated for Hue purposes In 1824 for the ben
efit of the settlers of the Miami river grant.

made. Representative Pichlor of Souta Da
kota , also a member of the committee , siilu
today ho bad little doubt that the committee
would recommend the passage of the bill.
Wunttlie lluuncy Continued.
Letters by the score are being received
dally Irom the residents of Nebraska con
cerning the continuance of the sdgar bounty
payment mentioned in Tnn BBC specials.
Mr. Bryan said today that a question of the
Jurisdiction of the subject hud arisen be
tween the ways and means and the appropri
ations committees. "I shall vote for tlio re
peal of the bounty douse , " said ho , "but
It is probable that the movement
to repeal the law will bo Instituted by the
appropriation committoco. There is so mo
question as to the mnnuor which will bo
adopted to replal the law. Congress made a
continuing appropriation In the MclClnloy
act for the payment of bounties and unless
the law is directly repealed there is no way
in which the government can evade the
eventual payment of the bounty. "

The strict construction of the wurahoaso
law provides for n chief inspector

it is bettor for htm to ablUo by the sttict con

Bros. , grain brokers of this city , to do their

VAN WYCK FOR PRESIDENT

HE WOULD BE A STRONG CANDIDATE

"I want to toll you something that Is going
to happen , " sold Mr. V. O. Stricitlor yester
day. "Tho matter has not been heralded
about tbo country as yet , but just as sure as
the sun rises next Fourth of July General
C. H. Van Wyck of Nebraska is going to bo
nominated In this city for the presidency by
the independent national convention. "
"Why do you feel ao positive about the
matter , " was asked of Mr. Stricklor.
' Because the signs of the times point to It
with unmistakable certainty. Just look at
tbo situation a moment : The two men who
liavo been spoken of most frequently us
probable candidates for the presidency on the
independent ticket are Weaver of lown and
Donnelly of Minnesota. Wnilo both of tbeso
gentlemen are auto and have a strong follow
ing , yet , there are vital reasons for predicting
that neither one will bo nominated. Mr.
Weaver ran for president nome years ago
and was defeated. That will militate
against him. Mr. Donnelly Is loaned
upon as being to a certain degree unstnudy
In his political uttltudo. People don't know
just whore to Una Mr. Donnelly at all times ,
III * Kruoril IIu Jlucommomlutlon ,
"On the other band tioro is General Van
Wyck with a record for monopoly lighting
that roaches back fifteen years or moro. Ho
has a national reputation as the champion of
the people's rights as against monop
olies. I was aurptlsdd to BJO
iho cordlalltj with which General
Van Wyok was greeted by the delegates
to the St. Louis convention. Tuosn South
erners wcro particularly enthusiastic over
the general. His speech at the mooting of
old Boldiors simply melted the hearts or
ovcrvbody In the hall. Thnro wore 1"0
union soldier * nnd over eighty confederate
soliliera at the conference.
"Tho most touching scene I over witnessed
was tbo mass ineotltur for ox-soldlcrs at
which General Van Wyck , Colonel Bon Tor
roil und others spolo. Wbilo Van Wyck
npoko ever half thu audience cried llko chil
dren. The old general touched a tender spot
and they swarmed about him after thu meet
ing In a way that surprised a good many
pnoplo.
"Then tbo convention is sure to nominate
a wostcru man. That It a foregone conclu
sion , This Is Van Wyck's homo state , and
the convention coming to Oinahu will have
the same effect'aa the holding of tbo repub
lican convention In Chicago dla In 18(50 ( it
nominated Lincoln. I fool perfectly confi
dent that General Van Wyofc will bo our
standard bearer next fall. "
"How about the vice president ) "
"Hon. L. L. Polk of North Carolina will bo
nominated for vice president. This will
unite the north and tbo south and poll a vote
that will astonish tbo nation. "
Van Wyok 1'uyoM Weuvur.
General Van Wyck wu * seen at thoPuxlon
by u BP.K reporter , and was asked about the
probability of his becoming the nomlnco of
the Independent party for tbo presidency.
' I shall not U ) a candidate , " said the gen
eral frankly. "Thoro are other men who
will be vary glad to got the nomination und
I do not want It. i am looking after differ
ent mutters entirely. 1 have no dealro to run
for president.
"Just at present there appears soma doubt
about the Independents being nblo
to elect B president tbU year , but
no one can tell what changes may take- plato
within a few months , Hut It 1s not on
account of tbo doubt connected with scouring
an election trr-i causes mo to gay that I have
no desire \'j bo the nominee- for tbe presi
dency. ' b vo other mutter * that are more
to mo , and 1 bollovo that Mr.
Weaver of Iowa will bo a sploui
did man for a standard bearer ;
lie is an able and a featlcss leader ana 1
like him. "

"You will probably look nftor the govern ,
orshlp then. If you are not nominated foi
prosidentj"
"Thoro Is nothing positive about thos
things' " replied the general , smiling blandly ,
"Wo shall have to wall until the campaign
Is moro fully outlined ooloro predicting with
any degree of certainty. I have certain
things in view and shall look out for then
when the proper tlma comes ,
"Thoro is ono thing you might say , however -
