LINCOLN , May 10 , ( Special. ) The pro cess of mustering tbo companies of the guard Into the United States service went ahead rapidly today nnd before evening every company had taken the oath nnd the men bad ceased to be members of the state guard. Recruiting went on during the day nnd the examining board was kept busy with the new applicant ? . During the day now men were taken by every company , but in spite of this there are only two or three companies up to their full strength. There are shortages of from live to twenty men. If the troops remain hero another day , how ever , it Is believed that all the companies will be filled. The new recruits keep coming In and now that the men are mustered Into the regular service the losses canned by men going homo will cease. General Dills will go with thn troops as colonel ot the Second regiment lu place of Colonel Blschof , who failed In the medical examination because of his light weight. The announcement of Bllln' appointment as coloucl will be made by the governor tomor row. This will not necessarily be a reduc tion for General Dills. It has been known for some time that there uas no chance of his appointment as brigadier general and the new appointment Is a recognition of bis right to go to the front with his tn.oMS. Tbo place as colonel of the Second regi ment is ono he formerly Oiled with honor and as ho Is the ranking officer he will have command of the Nebraska troops until they are placed In a brigade under a commander from some other state. The boys of the Second are sorry to lose Colonel Blschof , but they are glad that the place Is to be filled by such a popular officer as General Dills has proven to be.

FOLLOWERS START THEM PREMATURELY Italian * Acromi the 8 lnn Itordcr Prepare to Join March Through the Street * Shouting for Hevolntlon. ROME. May 10. The Italian cabinet hns decided to recommend to King Humbert that Parliament be prorogued. The police are reported to have seized correspondence showing that the recent serious riots In dif ferent parts of Italy wore the result of n plan of revolution , but It appears that the movement broke out prematurely. Martial law has been proclaimed In the province of Naples. The rioting at Naples yesterday was wide spread. It was started by big bands of students armed with sticks nnd revolvers , who operated In various quarters. They were soon Joined by others and stone throwIng - Ing became general. The police frequently dispersed the rioters , who , however , re formed and overturned horse cars with which they attempted to build barricades In several streets. The rioters made several attacks on the soldiers , using stones and revolvers nnd the troops fired , killing or wounding n number of the rioters. Dis turbances are also reported from various points In the province of Naples BERNE , Switzerland , May 10. The news of the uprising In Milan linn greatly ex cited the Italian workmen who abound In Switzerland. At Lauzanno this morning 1,000 Italian workmen paraded the streets , carrying a red flag draped with crape. As the procession passed through the streets the men sang the Marscllalsc and cheered for the revolution. The outbreak at Milan appears to have been fully organised. Ono of the leaders here exhibited a telegram announcing : "The revolution Is triumphant In Turin. The city has been burned. " Two men who took part In the demonstra tion appear to have plenty of money. Many Italians have started for the north of Italy In response to a circular bearing the words "To the frontier. Let us start for Italy. " Advices received from Milan today give details of the arrest of 200 rioters In a monastery there. It appears that the 1X11- dents from Pavla who joined In the dis turbances entrenched themselves in the Capuchin monastery , and whllo a detach- mcnt of troops was passing fired upon them. The military authorities sent two field guna to the scene , opened fire on the monastery , made a breach In Its walls and entered the building , but the students escaped. All the monks were arrested and they will bo Im prisoned previously to being distributed umonc the other monasteries of the order. For the present the monks will be held nt the disposal of the military authorities. A Catholic newspaper of Milan was con fiscated today. The town Is resuming Its normal condition.
