POLITICAL - llNElP ' IS FORMING Developments Ei peeled- to Come Rp . Idly from Now On. (From a BUff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June 27.-(Speclal.) The poli ticians are expecting developments to beg-In now In the lineup for the republican state convention. Word' came from Cedar county today' that the convention there had Instructed for Edward Rosewater for sen ator, which-gives him the prestige of hav ing the first Instructed votes. Four, other counties Vartleyv.HaH, Adams and Boone 'have already chosen their delegates, but In each case they were. put. up -for a favorite -son for one of the tate offices'. ' The political program for this week In cludes conventions Friday In Buffalo and Sherman counties and a primary In Tork county. Buffalo coupty In the home of Nor ths Brown and Is naturally expected to give him a big sendoft with an instructed delegation. All Is not smooth sailing there, however, according to reports, and there is .a possibility of friction over the question -of allowing Brown to name his own dele .gates and phut out some ambitious states men who are not personally beholden to -trim. A couple of years ago Frank Bee man, a leading: Kearney, republican, wanted 'the Buffalo .county delegation to promote his candidacy for congress and a resolu tion wis Introduced to permit him to name the delegates, but this resolution was vig orously assailed on the floor by Norrls Brown himself, who' denounced It as tin republican and unprecedented, and Insisted that the county convention was fully able to select the delegates Itself. Should the Brown people ask that their candidate be permitted to name the delegates this time It Is said that Norrls Brown will be quoted upon himself against the proposition, al though no objection is likely to be entered to having the delegation Instructed for him. . Sherman county adjoins Buffalo county and Is In the same jedletaJ district with It. and would ordinarily- Join with Buffalo county for Brown for senator. But It la also the hp'me'of Judxe Aaron Wall, who is a brother of John Wall, the Valley county candidate for governor, and John Wall will try to gerh 'airpport-bf Sherman county. It will npt be .surprising, therefore. If Sherman county puts up a delegation for Wall, or. far Well and Brown, but the Brown peajils are 'mire likely to be disap pointed, i' V;-.. . - A . welrfdcrjown Tork county Tepublican who. was here today, explains the situation there ashore or less mixed.

Howard Corner Sixteenth Street letter on attorney general stationery to all the voters asking their support. A -sort of a direct primary has been rigged up In York county by which the county ticket Is1 to" be nominated, and the chairman, who Is one of the Brown lieutenants, of his own accord has put on the ticket the names of five candidates for senator for a preferen tial vote. By making It "Brown against the field" In this way they feel sure that Brown's vote will show up big against any one of the others, particularly as the ballot Is so arranged that Brown's name comes first, followed by Crounse. Currie, Millard and Rosewater last. York county has a candidate for governor In the person of Dr. J. B. Conway, who will ask for the delegation In furtherance of his Interests, so It Is not certain that the vote on senator at the primary will have any binding effect on the delegates that will vote for York at the state convention. While the primary has been called with a purpose for June SO, the York county convention Is not to be held until July 7, giving a week In which to make medicine before final action. : The Fourth district republican congres sional convention has been called for July 18 at David City. This is also a move In the Interests' of Brown, who figures himself strongest in the 8outh Platte district and hopes thus to force the Fourth district counties to hold their conventions early to give him the-advantage of. early support as a lever upon counties In other districts where he is admittedly weak. The only other couaty In the Fourth district whose convention has already been called Is Butler county for July 14. but the rest will have to be announced very shortly; '. BARRY THAW IS SANE (Continued from First Page.) cealed from her until after the sailing hour. According to a report made to the agents of the line. Thaw said several times In the smoking saloons that his life had been ruined and that he had "left that woman for good and all. - Thaw ia said to have made this same an nouncement to the countess of Yarmouth as soon as he made his presence known to her. It was reported aboard the boat that hla sister pleaded with htm to return to his wife on the next boat from the other sld;. Apparently the sister s pleading had aome effect on Thaw, for he remained on the other aide only a few days, taking return pasage at the last minute pn the Kalserin Aun.eta Victoria. .... The steamer sailed from Hamburg May 10 and arrived on May 19. Thaw's name did pot appear on the passenger list, -Detectives are now trying to find... out where Mrs. Thaw spent the time between her husband's departure for- England and his return. Her frltnda say . she did not leave New York City., a ": Perhaps the most interesting development last night waa the announcement that Mrs. Thaw told her husband's lawyers yes terday that she had received nmny letters from Mr. White since her marriage. One of these she threw on her dressing table a few days ago and. .her hvrabaad .found it an.1 vowed vengeance, en the writer. - While the finding of this letter may 'have been the direct cause of' the tragedy, Thaw's jealousy of and hatred, for. White were of lang standing and the young man made frequent threats to kill his supposed rival. :.-... i . White -Was Spied I'pea.. Mr. White wss sstonlshed some months ago to find that detectives were following him wherever he went. At Jtrst he had some doubt whether the men were reu'.ly dogging his footsteps, or whether It was a mere accident that the same fares ap peared when he left his office, his home or his club at morning, noon and nlgbt. When ha had become convinced beyond a possible doubt that reports of his movements were being prepared for somebody, he took steps to have some detective work done on his own account and to have his - shadower followed. v lie employed a man to go after hlfii wherever he went, as far as possible, snl then he amused himself by giving the slip to the first deteeffve. The person h em ployed discovered that the other detective was reporting to Thaw. In this way Mr. Whits was able to obtain ample warning i that the wealthy young man from Pitts burg suspected him snd was preparing aome unpleasant surprises. Mr. White took occasion to mention this matter to soma of his associates and comraen'ed that one reason, h assumed, that Thaw was angry at him waa because he was familiar with a document drawn by the present Mrs. Thaw before her marriage. The nature of this is not known. . - i . . Little Chaaea tor Lltsl Kraaefctse. FREMONT. Neb..
