r
Chicago will "hold it municipal
election on Tuesday. The Issue be
tween Fred A. Busse, the present
postmaster, and Republican candi
date for Mayor, and Mayor Edward
F. Dunne, Democratic candidate for
re-election. Is complicated by a ref
erendum on the traction question.
The traction ordinance which wae
recently paused by the City Council
and vetoed by Mayor Dunne, pro
vides for the Issue of 20-year fran
chises, but stipulates that the city
shall have the right to purchase on
giving notice of such Intention. The
ordinance Is to become effective im
mediately after It has been In
dorsed by public referendum. The
Republicans favor the adoption of the
ordinance, whlje the Democrats op
pose such Indorsement and advocate
assertion of the city's rights of emi
nent domain, the condemnation of
the streetcar property and munici
pal ownership. The campaign has
been a heated one.
CHICAGO. March 31. If the surface in
dications be not deceptive, Fred A. Busse,
Republican candidate, will be elected
Tuesday, the first four-year Mayor of
Chicago over Mayor Wdward F. Dunne.
Granting that this will be the result of
the voting, it will mean that the people
of Chicago, while holding to the principle
of ultimate municipal ownership of the
streetcar system, have, after two years
nf futile hope, given up the idea of "im
mediate ownership."
Mayor Dunne's defeat will be a popular
protest agnlnst several features of his
administration, but the traction Issue is
the dominant one in the campaign and on
that he is to stand or fall. He was elect
ed two years ago by a plurality of 25.000
votes over John Maynard Harlan on a
platform calling for immediate municipal
ownership. The result was Interesting to
the country at large because it was the
first time a big American city had gone
on record at the polls on that Issue
Odds High at 10 to 7.
The betting 'for ten days has been
strongly In favor of Mr Busse, the odds
running 6 to 4 and 10 to 7. Some of the
ardent admirers of Mayor Dunne have
placed even money that he will be elected,
but such wagers are for small amounts.
On the other hand, many of Busse's close
friends are giving large odds. It is prob
Hble that $600,000 has been wagered In
one way or another.
The defeat of Mayor Dunnewill mean
that the people of Chicago resent the
interference of William Randolph Hearst
in the campaign and in the administration
of the city's affairs. It was the Hearst
influence and policy that defeated the
Democratic candidates on the county
ticket last Fall. It the temper of the
people generally be noi misjudged at this
time, the resentment against Hearst Is to
be carried to the ballot box. In voting
against the New York editor, electors
will have to vate against Dunne, and
therein lies, next to the traction issue,
the greatest menace to the Dunne candidacy-
Will Rebuke Hearst.
Hearst came here ten days ago with
Mr. Brisbane and a retinue of cartoon
ists, reporters and editorial writers and
took personal charge of the campaign.
His policy has expressed Itself, not so
much in favor of Dunne as against
Busse. The Hearst papers have dissem
inated the most ridiculous stories about
what Busse Intends to do if he is elected.
The expression "ridiculous stories" is not
used in any partisan spirit. It is believed
that even Mayor Dunne secretly repu
diates the printed report that Busse, If
elected, intends to appoint a former pen
itentiary convict as Chief of Police of the
city. This is merely one illustration of
the absurd campaign material Hearst has
teen using. While Mr. Busse lay almost
helpless at his home as the result of In
juries sustained In a railroad wreck, the
Hearst papers attacked him personally In
a way that the conservative element of
the Dunne following could not indorse.
In addition to voting for candidates, the
people are to approve or reject the trac
tion ordinances passed by overwhelming
vote of the City Council several weeks
ago. These ordinances. Instead of being
for "Immediate municipal ownership"
which Is an impossibility are for "im
mediate settlement of the traction ques
tion" to the extent and end that the
people may not have to watt for years
for a decent streetcar service.
Plans for Immediate Relief.
.
In brief, these ordinances there are
two of them identical In the essential
principles, applying to two different com
paniesprovide for operation of the
street cars by existing traction compa
nies under strict supervision of the city
authorities. Fifty-five per cent of the
net earnings of ike companies go to the
city and the municipality reserves the
right to buy the property at any time
upon six months notice. The purchase
price for the properties of the two com
panies is not to exceed $50,000,000 plus any
expenditures to which the companies are
put in reconstructing the lines and pro
viding new equipment for a first-class
service.
Under the terms of the ordinances the
companies are to commence the work 6f
rehabilitation as soon as the measures
are approved by the people at the polls
and carry It on to completion as quickly
as possible, There are many other feat
ures of the ordinances, but all of them,
are simply to safeguard the city in Its
two main aims to get good service in
the shortest possible time and to hold in
reserve the right to bring about munici
pal ownership when the people say the
word. AH the work of reconstruction is
to be under the supervision of a board of
engineers, one member of which is to be
named by the mayor, another by the
companies, and the third Is to be Bion
J. Arnold, an acknowledged expert on lo
cal traction matters. All sorts of pre
cautions are taken to compel the trac
tion companies to live up. to the letter of
the contract with the city.
Matter Rests With People.
The ordinance funs for 20 years and
if the city has not then bought the lines.
it can name any company to buy them on
the same terms allowed to the city no
bonus. If approved at the polls the meas
ures are in force as soon as they are for
mally approved by the interested compa
nies, the Chicago City Railway having 60
ays and the Chicago Railway Company
120 days to accept. If not approved by
either the people or the companies, the
ordinances fall entirely just as If they
had never been passed.
Inasmuch as representatives of the
companies acted In concert with the city
authorities in agreeing upon the provi
sions of the ordinances, it seems hardly
probably the companies will refuse to
accept them. Such refusal would be a
breaking of faith so flagrant that it
would react on the companies with disas
trous consequences In all probability.
The Democratic platform is against the
ordinances on the ground that they do
not adequately guard the interests of the
city or the people who use the cars. It
is held that they menace municipal own
ership, and give the traction companies a
power that Bhould not be entrusted to
them. The platform declares against any
thing that looks to an extension of fran
chises to the companies and against all
further negotiations with the companies.
As a substitute it demands that the city
at once institute lawsuis to condemn the
street railway lines, take them over at
a price agreed upon by court sanction
and proceed to build a municipal system
of roads under the provisions of the
Mueller law passed by the state Legisla
ture two years ago.
Fear Long Litigation.
Mayor Dunne admits that the condem
nation suits would not be brought to
final issue within 18 months. Opponents
of his policy insist the time would be
much longer than that. Everybody con
cedes that the litigation would be stub
born and complicated. Whether by the
condemnation process the city could pro
cure the properties at less cost than Is
proposed in the ordinances is a debatable
question.
Advocates of "immediate settlement"
sav it is unlikely the companies would
spend a cent for new cars or equipment
pending the litigation and that, there
fore, the streetcar service would grow
worse every day to the detriment of the
city's business interests.
Republicans Stand United.
The registration, after revision, shows
a total of 392.432 names, against 410,009 In
1905. the lists of the latter having been
swelled in the Fall of 1904 because of the
presidential election. Two years ago
328,000 cast votes for Mayor. The political
managers expect the vote this year will
be at least 360,000. Prohibition leaders
claim 12.000 votes, or two or three times
that cast two years ago. The Socialists
place their .support at 30,000, as compared
with 23.000. Both of these parties are
making harder fights than ever before,
but it is improbable they will be a great
er factor In general results than they
were two years ago.
Republican wards make the best show
ing in the matter of increased registra
tion. This exhibit, coupled with the fact
that the oartv is united an a mayoralty
contest as It has not been previously In
many years, strengthens the Republican
leaders In their claim of victory next
Tuesday. There is no concerted opposi
tion to Busse anywhere along the party
lines. The Legislature, strongly Repub
lican, Is deferring action on the new char
ter for Chicago until after the election
a fact that is likely to improve the
chances of Busse.
Hearst Will Leave Bad Taste.
Party lines will be more closely ad
hered to than two years ago, but Mayor
Dunne is destined to lose many votes in
his party because of his traction atti
tude, his school policy and especially be
cause of the domination of Hearst in the
campaign. Others hold that he Gas not
taken the right course in the regulation
of vice, but that issue is an indefinite one
as between the two leading candidates.
Questions of business policy and adminis
trative firmness are therefore paramount.
On them the battle will be lost and won.
The campaign has been unusually hot,
hundreds of meetings daily and tons of
"literature'" being features. Dunne is
supported by- the Hearst papers alone.

TO
DIVIDE ALL SWAG
Ruef and Schmitz Were Each
to Give the Other Half
of His Spoils.
HELD OUT ON EACH OTHER
Not All of the Slayor's Graft Blind
Has Been Located Still Great
er Sensations Are Prom
ised by Grand Jury.
SAX FRANCISCO. March 31. (Spe
cial.) It was. positively established to
day that a solemn agreement has existed
between Mayor Schmitz and Abe Ruef
to divide their boodle. When Schmitz
squeezed a dollar from an unsavory re
sort 50 cents went to Ruef. and when
Ruef shook down a corporation for $200,-
000. $100,000 went to Schmitz. It has been
established that of the $1300 a month that
the Pacific States Telephone and Tele
graph Company paid to Ruef, $600 a
month went to the. Mayor.
That this partnership for the purpose
of boodle did not always run harmonious
ly is also known. The two conspirators
held out on each other on various occa
sions. It appears, however, that Ruef
held out on Schmitz oftener than the
Mayor did on him. While $1,000,000 of
Ruef's boodle money has been traced the
prosecution has been able to locate only
$750,000 of the Mayor's loot.
Ruef Will Talk Later.
Wrhen Ruef was asked directly today if
he did not receive $1200 monthly from
the Pacific States Company, he refused
to give a definite answer.
"I will neither affirm nor deny that,"
he said. At some time in the future I
may have something to say."
This is a characteristic speech of the
captive boss. He is always going to
have something to say later.
Another hard-luck story has leaked out
from the grand jury confessional. It is
that of Supervisor Mamlock. In his
confession Mamlock told how he had
placed $8500 of his boodle money in a tin
can which he kept in his home. At the
time of the fire all was cremated, can
and currency. Mamlock upon taking
his seat on the Board of Supervisors was
penniless. After he had served for 10
months he blossomed out as the owner
of 11 automobiles.
Sensations Yet to Come.
From the District Attorney's office
carne the information today that the
revelations which would attend the in
vestigation into the trolley and gas brib
ery deals would eclipse in point of sen
sationalism anything yet told to the
grand jury.
A meeting of all attorneys connected
with the prosecution will be held tomor
row, at which plans for the week will be
decided upon. A double bill will run
through the week according to present
plans. The sessions of the grand jury
will continue and the trial of Ruef in
the French restaurant cases will occupy
the boards.
From Toledo, O., came the news by
wire tonight that the Chief of Police had
been unable to locate Abram K. Detwilet,
against whom 13 indictments have been
returned for bribing supvervisors.
STARCH OUT OF SANDERS
General Wheaton Rebukes Insolent
"Hero" of Brownsville Riot.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, March 28. The Brownsville inves
tigation that is being conducted by the
Senate committee on military affairs Is
pretty much of a farce. Few Senators
have any interest in the inquiry and very
little attention is being paid to the tes
timony. For all practical purposes, the
Brownsville incident is closed; nothing
remains except a little political capital
for Senator Foraker. who is responsible
for the present investigation. Mr. Fora
ker Is on hand every day; he takes a
hand in the examination of each witness,
and is doing what he can to revive Inter
est in a dead sensation, but it is uphill
work.
So far as the public is concerned, in
terst in the Brownsville affair died out
when the Senate refused to reverse the
action of the President. But the mem
bers of the colored regiment who have
been hanging around Washington wait
ing to be called as witnesses have found
the proceedings both interesting and
profitable. Many of the colored men have
been living In Washington for six weeks
at Government expense, with nothing to
do but loaf around the corridors of the
Capitol during the hours the committee is
in session. Some of them have been
swelled up by the notoriety they have at
tained since their discharge, and the more
Important figures among them have lately
displayed signs of arrogance.
Mingo Sanders, whose case was taken
up by Mr. Foraker during the debate In
the Senate and who was held up to the
gaze of the country as an ill-treated hero,
contracted a severe case of swelled head.
Sanders would strut around the Capitol
with a cigar jammed In the corner of his
mouth at an angle of 45 degrees, and
would have the airs of a man of Impor
tance. He was "doing the martyr act" at
all hours of the day.
One day an aged gentleman, who had
spent considerable time In the military
committee, came out In the corridor,
walked over to where a. dozen or more of
the discharged soldiers were sitting and
stopping in front of Sanders, asked:
"Is this Mingo Sanders?"
Sanders, who was leaning back against
the wall, with the ever-present cigar tilt
ed at the customary angle, looked over
the old gentleman for a minute and then
replied haughtily:
"Yep, I'se the nigger they's all talkln"
about."
"Well. Mingo, you have changed a great
deal since I saw you last," said the old
'gentleman.
"Well. Ise in ae iimetigm now,
answered Sanders.
"You don't remember me as well as I
remember you," said the gentleman. "I'm
General Wheaton."
In an Instant Sanders changed. Drop
ping his cigar from his mouth, he quickly
assumed an erect attitude, brought his
hand to his cap and saluted his former
commanding officer. General Wheaton re
turned the salute and. as he walked away,
told Sanders his soldierly bearing was
more becoming than his latter-day man
ners. After that incident, Sanders has
been les offensive in his conduct around
Washington.
