FIXING IT UP FOR FUSION Democrat! and PopnlieU Decide on Same Time ted Place for Convention. GRAND ISLAND GETS THE TWO-RING SHOW Both Pertlre favor aa Early lai vrntlon and Jaae 24 la perdlly elfcfrd ot a Inaal. tnoaa a Loralloa. ) fFrom a Btaff c'urres-pondent.) LINCOLN. April 2.1. (Speclsl Telegram.) The democratic and populist executive committers met here tomsht and after several hours of deliberation agreed to have tbr state nominating conventions held in Grand Island on June 24. Tbr basis of representation In the democratic convention will be one delegate 'or each county and cne for every 100 votes or tcsjor frsctlcn thereof cast for W. D. Old bam In l:00. glvinR a convention of 1.210 delegates. The representation in the pop ulist ccnventlcn a 111 be one for each 100 voa or major fraction' thereof cast for William A. Poynter, giving a convention of 1,224 delegates. H. D. Trsvls of Tlattsmouth was ehesen for terepcrary secretsr of the democratic committee. The committees met separately at the Lincoln hotel. Only the one date was pro posed, the members of both commltteet favoring aa early convention and June 24 being acctpted in the discussion as the most sdvsntagcous time fo the convention. As to the place for the meeting there s a wide difference of sentiment. The democrats f.rst decided on Lincoln and no tice of the actlcn was sent to the populist committee. Former Secretary of State Por ter was to the front in tbe latter organi zation with a plea In favor of Grand la land, contending that a convention at that place would bring out many populists of the Fifth and Sixth congressional districts who would not otherwise attend. Wilbur F. Bryant urged the designation of Omaha, but wss ssdly in the minority. After a few minutes' discussion the populists de cided on Grand Island and so notified tbe democrats. Each committee was obstinate, but finally at 11:30 the democrats gave way and accepted the terms of their fusion brethren. The action of the committees In deter mining upon Grsnd Island wss a surprise to the outsiders, as It was generally sup posed that there would be no cpposltlon to Lincoln.

In sll probability no arrests will be made In connection with the battle with two negro tramps at Buford last week and ths killing of one of them by the train hands and gravel pit employes. The county at torney has been advised to not bring ac tion against any of the railroad men. as no Jury could be found that would convict tbem. It would be a difficult matter to learn who fired the shot that killed Harris. The negro was running away and tbe rail road men were pursuing him, firing their guns the while. A large number of ahots were fired and It would be next to Impossi ble to charge the killing to any one of tbe half dozen employes. Conductor John Ca hlll denies that he fired his gun while In pursuit of the two negroes at Buford. He says he chaaed them for s short distance, but his wind gave out snd he, turned his gun over to his brakeman without firing a shot. at I r 4t 4 ""alSal.aWM'W take on renewed strength, until soon they become stout and robust.

STORM LOSSES ARE LIGHT Damage Wystalsg Sheep Isilgsl. rant and Prices for Wool Better Than Laf Year. CHEYENNE, Wyo., April 23 (Special ) Reports from the range country today do not warrant the predictions mads by a morning paper that there 1:1 be severs losses among sheep throughout tbe state as a result of yesterdsy's storm. Snow fell to a depth of several Inches at Evanston, Granger, Green River and Rock Springe. Rawlins received a little snow snd l some of the eastern tow ns In the state also l got some, but In most sections the storm wss nothing more than s cold, drizzling rain. During the night the storm clouds broks sway and todsy the sun Is shining bright snd wsrm. Sheepmen say no damage will be done by yesterday's storm as flockmssters In most sections hsd tsken precautions against Just this kind of weather. Should the cold spell continue for several dsys, they say, there may 1 some losses among Iambs, but the Indications sre that the state will be visited by no more cold weather st preeent. Shearing le progressing rapidly st Cas per, Wolton. Fort Steele and the 6ther shearing points in the state. Wool buyers sre on the ground and the clips sre being disposed of st satisfactory prices. In most J esses flockmastrrs are receiving from 1 to 2 cents per pound more this spring than they did a year ago. At Casper more then 2.000.000 pounds of wool has bee!) sold already, while at Fort Steele, RawliAs and Rock Spring., an equal amount has been purchased by tbe eastern buyers. The percentage of wool being held for higher prices is very small as compared with former years, growers being satisfied with rrreent prices. WYOMING STOCKMEN ELATED Say Cattle Industry In Excellent Con dition nnd Shipments May Be Heavier. CHEYENNE. Wyo,. April 23. (Special.) The information is gathered from lead ing stockmen here that the cattle induetry of Wyoming Is in a flattering condition, due to a great extent to the late winter, which was very favorable throughout. There were no loeses to speak of either among cattle, horses or sheep and among cattle the loss was comparatively nothing. The ranges remained fairly good through out the winter and late snows and early rains have started the grass in sll sections much earlier than usual. There will be no shortage of marketable cattle when the ahlpplng season opens snd If any change from last season the shipment will be heavier. This will be accounted for by the fact that owners held back everything last sea son that was not in prime condition, with the result that larger numbers of fine beef cattle will go to market from Wyoming this year than last, especially If the season is a good one for grass. Wyoming cattlemen who range their herds in South Dskota say the same condi tions prevail In that stste as in this. PROMISE OF THE WEATHER MAN Fair and Warmer Weather wltb Sontb Winds for Ne. braska.
