MONTGOMERY , Ala. , Dec. 1. The sta
of Alabama now has two governors and tv
separate sets of officers. Colonel Dates ar
those elected on hla ticket preside at tl
state house. Captain Kolb and his coi
tlngent have not announced their offlcl
headquarters. The political situation !
Alabama today has been a most excllli
one. This was the day set by law for tl
Inauguration of a governor and state tlcke
The returns of the August election lun
shown the election of the democratic tick
headed by Colonel William C. Dates by ov
27,000 majority. The legislature In Joint se
elon had regularly counted and onnounci
the result. Captain Kolb , Dates' opponer
the nominee of the populists , charged frai
and claimed ho had received a majority
the votes cast and was the rightful heir
the governor's office. Ho determined , ther
fore , to bo sworn In and was.
At high noon , surrounded by membe
the legislature and with the usual pen
of military display , Colonel Gates took t
oath ot office upon the steps ot the sta
capltol , standing on the very spot on whii
Jefferson Davis stood when he was swo
In as president of the southern confcderac
Numerous threats had been made by ml
guided friends of Kolb , and to avoid anythl
like violence , as well as to lend a spirit
the occasion , more than twenty companl
ot troops with cartridges In their belts we
present and participated In the inauguratl
Ciremonlcs , which were without any d
orderly event.
At Captain Kolb's residence there w
held a secret caucus of populist leaders. Gc
ornor Jones did not anticipate trouble , t
was prepared to stamp It out promptly ,
ordered the military to carry ball cartrld ;
so as to bo ready for action If requestec
Ho regarded the threats and mutterlngs
Kolb as a bluff.
As the morning wore on there appeal
tp be an Increase In the number of count :
men In the city. The militiamen ostenta
ously showed themsslVQS around the str
with their jjuns and their ammunition be
studded with ball cartridges. The Kolbl
had not yet exhibited their guns. Govcri
Jonca and his staff came to the state hoi
early In the morning and were busily engai
in making preparations to protect the In ;
gural services from violence. At 1030
mllltla began to assemble at the armory ,
a caucus ot the Kolbltcs last night It v
decided to gather at the state house today
11 o'clock , one hour In advance ot the
auguratlon , and have Kolb sworn In. So
difficulty was experienced In getting an olll
to administer the oath , two populist Jud
sympathizing with the cause declining
the ground that they would lose their olll
by being Impeached for treason.
KOLB SWORN IN.
At 11 o'clock a message was received at
state house that Captain Kolb had taken
gubernatorial oath In a downtown office i
was coming to the state house to make
speech. Governor Jones Issued orders to f
free access to the state house grounds as 1
as those who entered behaved In an ordc
manner.
Kolb was sworn In by James W. Pow
a Justice of the peace , the ceremony occ
ring In the law office of Warren Reese , am !
the. same time the oath was administered
J. C. Farvllle , as secretary of state ; W.
Lynch , as audltoi ; J. P. Oliver , supsrlntcd
of education , and Warren Reese , Jr. , attor
general.
Kolb and his cabinet then proceeded
the state house for the purpose ot makin
speech. Ho was followed by several h
drcd ot his adherents. They marched
the state house steps through the ranks
the assembled mllltla and took their pla
bcaldo the Identical portico upon which Jcf
son Davis was declared president of
confederate states. In a few minutes C
crnor Jones sent for Captain Kolb , who
escorted Into his presence by LUuton
Irvvln ot the regular army.
"I understand , sir , " said Governor Joi
"that you propose to make a speech In tl
grounds claiming to be
, governor of 4
bama. "
"That ls my Intention , " answered K
"Then I must say to you that the mon
you attempt It , I will Imve you arrested

"I say this In all kindness to you. If
were governor you would do the same tl
In a similar case. I will not permit yoi
anyone else on these grounds to Interi
the Inauguration proceedings of Govei
Dates. "
Governor Jones' manner was courteous
firm. Captain Kolb looked around at the
nembled troops and with a wave ot his 1 :
utarted down and out ot the grounds , folio
by his adherents. They congregated agali
the strsst , utstde the capltol grounds.
A wagon stood near by and upon this (
tiln Kolb mounted. He slated that the
ctedlngs would be opened with prayer ,
pppullst clergyman mounted the wagon an

It was an Impressive scene. Every mat
the crowd was a pUIn countryman with re
clothing and high'top boots. In simple vvi
the clergyman Invoked the bleulng of

honest government , "

"As outlined In my address tn the peopli

"It IB the ballot which gives the right t

that right has been suspended by false an

will make an appeal to the general goven

our cause and believing that In the end rig !

state. "
Referring to Kolb's charges of 'fraud ' , Go
ernor Dates , In his Inaugural , said : "It hi
been claimed that frauds were committed
the lust August election. I ha\e no know
edge whatever ot any , and for the good nan
of our state regret that such charges ha'
been made. I proclaimed In my speJch

Ho cautioned the people against vlolenc

wagon. Kolb's place was then taken by t

desperate and bloodthirsty threats ,
"They call me nn anarchist In this stale

He called Governor Dates' followers scou

The Inaugural ceremonies were preceded
a prayer , after which Governor Jones Int
duced Ills successor , who was greeted vv

LONDON , Dec. 1. ( New York World Cabl
Special Telegram ) According to Informa
tlon , the German emperor has been excellln
himself in the extravagance of his concer :
over the Anglo-Russian rapprochement. Hav
Ing watched the progress of events at SI
Petersburg from Berlin with uneasiness fo
several days , he suddenly , without a word o
natlce , appeared at his mother's residence
Rumpehhe'm , to express his chagrin tha
Queen Victoria's cabinet should bo pursuin
a policy calculated it not Intended to Isolat
Germany. Th3 emperor was so agitated , s
angry , that Empress Frederick , contrary t
etiquette In such matters , promised to mak
representations direct to her royal mother re
gardlng the emperor's protest. Sir Edwar
Malet , the British ambassador to Berlin , ha
only arrived In England two dajs before fo
a prolonged stay , but the Immediate result c
the dispatch sent by Empress Frederick t
Queen Victoria was that he was ordered bac
to Berlin , post haste , chargej with assurance
to the German emperor that the Brills
policy alms at no continental alliances or Ir
terference with existing alliances , but mcrel
at the preservation ot peace and of the statu
quo. When Sir Edward arrived In Berlin h
found the emperor Indisposed , prostrated , a (
cording to diplomatic gossip , by one ot thos
mental attacks which have supervened befoi
on spells of Intense excitement. Main's mil
ston was explained to htm by Chancellc
Hohcnlohe , and now It Is hoped that tli
emperor .will take a calmer view of th
British policy.
CLOUDS GATHER TOR ROSEBERY.
The political situation In Great Britain
beginning to assume a serious aspect , for tl
Uosebery government's defeat on the Torfai

be followed by another reverse In thc-dlvlElc
of Lincoln , which votes next Frlday. N.O
thaCtho'lledmondltcV have "definitely nlll <
theMselves with the unionists , the workli ;
majority of the government Is reduced i
ten or twelve. The fact that in both Forfi
I and Brig the liberals are suffering , not f <
their policy , but because the unionists 1m
strong local candidates as against carpH bai
gers on the liberal side , docs not lessen tl
moral effect of such a reverse cither in tl

MANCHESTER'S COSTLY CANAL.
The Manchester ship canal , the greatc

failure. The total earnings In the p :

$55,000 less than the working expenses. T
