The coainiftee which was expected to

for a eeccud terra in the executive man
sion at !t.i:y. This, tho tubst-ance of a
comniunit-Ati on leceivi'd by Senator
Lodge, of Mass tohusetti", from the gov
ernor was conveyed to the president.
Senator Lodge did not consider the mes
sage he received from GoueiUur Roose
velt cocfiieuti.il. Ho accordingly die
tributed the infor.i ation freely among re
publican leaders here.
Governor Roosevelt's positive declina
tion to accept second place on the presi
dential txket is the leading topic of dis
cussion tonight among republican lead
ers in Washington. Thus putting him
self out of tbe race, Governor Roosevelt
has reopened the field of speculation as
to who will be President McKiuley's
running mate. Senator Scott, of West
Virginia, a member of the national com
mittee, atid bo received information,
wbicb came direct from Governor Roose
velt, announcing positively, that he
would not t-ccept the nomination for tbe
vice-pretidtney, even if it should be ten
dered to him by tho uuaBimuus vote of
the national convention.
"There are eonie of us," added Senator
Scott, a;wbo are inclined ti look to the

of

the democratic lawyers were directed to
day toward mapping out plans to secure
tbe adiud:catioa of the cliims of Taylor
and Beckbam" to ibe office of governor.
There is danger of a clahs long aa the
present positions are maintained.
Judge Pryor believes the injunction
nil bow pending before Cantrill at
Frankfort will be useless as fat aa de
termining the main ioe is concerned,
because Us object is to prevent Governor
Taylor from interfering with tne legisla
ture, or adjourning it to London. Anew
tart must be bad, anthis will probably
be oy a suit at law ia behalf of the Back
ar party to eetablith the legality of the
cfton of the legislature in declaring him
c'actad, and to secura possession of the
office, cr by a petiticn in equity to te-
etrain the military from exercising me
-duties of the office of governor'.

but tbeir course will depend largely opon
that adopted by the democrats. Peti
tions in tte goreraoiehip cases were
dtawD up for submission to Judge Taft
with that affecting the miner efficee,
but were beid up temporarily because of
the peace negotiation?.
Both bouses of the legislature met at

convened a e-jacurrent resolution which
"had passed the senate was presented,
calling nyon Taylor at once to withdraw
.the militia and force of armed men
which be has gathered about him in the

New Yokk, Feb. 13.
Herald from Washington eajs: Before
Mr. Bryan left Washington Saturday be
held an important conference with some
of the democratic leaders and it was de
cided that the democratic national con
vention should be held prior to the re
publican and populist conventions.
It is understood that Mr. Bryan is
anxious that Lis party shall take the
Held, announce its platform and prepare
fcr the national convention before bis
political rivals declare their campaign in
tentions. He is particularly anxious to
anticipate the action cf tbe populist
party, which be fears may bi guilty of
political iniiscretions which may be
injure his cause.
Mr. Bryan did not cenfins his .consul
tations while in Washington with the
free Eiiver democrats, but talked with
como of the shrewdest a ad most influen
tial members of tbe gold standard wing
of tbe party. It is known that he held a
secret conference wiih former Senator
Gorman, and it was after consulting Mr.
Gorman that Mr. Bryan impresseJ upon
bis friends tbe imortaoce of holding
their convention at a date several weeks
in advauce of tbe republican convention.
Notwithstanding the assertion by mem
bers of tbe democratic national commit
tee that at a recent conference at Chi
cago it ws decided to hold tbe conven

be a disposition to rescind that action

adrtntage if the Briti?h were alOe t ) cc

Tbe absence of General French froui
Rensberg district appears to have given
the Boers an opportunity for renewed ac
tivity. They bare apparently extended
tbeir attack on the British lines and are
meeting with minor success, having con
siderable moral effect on the border col
onists.
Tbe Boer invasion of Zululan 1 has j
caused keen anxiety apart from the fact
that it threatens Bailer's supplies. It is
difficult to believe that the Zulus can
long be kept quiescent, while their cat
tle are commandeered and the country
overrun by their hereditary foe?.
Friends cf Cecil Rhodes are becoming
alarmed at bis poesiblo fate and have
sent an emissary to see Dr. Leyde, dip
lomatic agent of the Boers in Europe, in
regard to th 3 probable course the Boers
wouM pursue iatheerento! his capture.
Dr. Ley da assured the intermediaries
that jhe Boers did not intend to kill Mr.
Rhodes, but Le added they would cer
tainly bold bim as hostage until indem
nity for the Jameson raid was paid. Io
view of deyelopments since the raid, the
Boers have slso decided to double the
amount of indemnity demanded so
Rhodes' friends will have to' handover
f 10.000.000 before he is released. It is
also learned definitely that Jameion is
still at Ladyemitb, in 6pite uf all conflict

A semi-officiai paragraph is published
in the Globe thii afiernoon, saying that
Germany does not contemplate interven
