e CLAIN THE BIC CONVENTION Nebraskens Fay National Euiter M Will Moot in Lineoln. FEEL SURE OF CAPTURING THE MEETNG Ezecutive Committee of the Amsocin- tlon, Through Prominent Member, Gives Out the State- ment. (From a Btaft Correspondent) LINCOLN, Jan. 26-—(Special.)—"Tt may be stated as almost a certainty that Lin- coln will be selected as the place for the mext annual cenvention of the Natlonal Buttermakers' association,” sald Morris Friend of the Beatrice Creamery company this afternoon. “The executive committee will make the | announcement within the next few dnyn. and unless some of the members have changed heart there can be no doubt as to what it will be. Three of the five mem- bers of the committee met in this city last week, but they postponed action rezarding the location of the convention because of the absence of the other committeemen. A vote of all members s now being taken by malil, “This year the convention will be held in October, instead of Kebruary, as in former years. The exact time will be de- termined by the committee.” rrie 1 Senator F. M. Kes Leasing BilL Currie stopped in Lincoln today enroute from Omaha to his howe in | Cyster county. He dlsposed of some west- ern thoroughbred horses In South Omaha last week. Mr. Currle eald his visit in Lin- coln had no political significance. “The bill now ponding in congress which provides for the leasing of government lands In wostern states I8 a step in the right direction,” sald Mr. Currie. “There i one feature in the measure, however, that may meet with some opposition. It is the lack of provision for taxation of land leased under the act. In some of the coun- tles 60 per cent of the land belongs to the government and is exempt from taxation. This throws the burden of taxation on the owners of the other property, which s un- fair. If some way can be provided by which the leases can be taxed the measure ought to meet with very general approval.” Preach Farewell Sermons. Rev. Willlam Manss, pastor of the First Congregational church, and Rev. William Hindman, pastor of the First Presbyterlan church, preached the last sermons of their pastorates today. Rev.

Soon after 1 o'clock Emperor William and the prince drove in a closed carriage | Queen Victoria's own. A triumphal archway of evergreens had been erected In front of the porch of the barracks and the regiment was drawn up In parade order. anthem. After the band had marched | past, the emperor and the Prince of Wales proceeded to the regimental messroom, { where luncheon was served. The party included the British ambassa- dor to Germany, Sir F. C. Lascelles and his Frederich and Prince Henry The luncheon terminated at when Emperor William returneq castle, and the Prince of Wales took a train for Potsdam, there to visit the duchess of Albany and to lay a wreath upon the tomb of the late Empress Fred- erick. of Prussia 3 o'clock, to the Dines with Emperor, In the evening Bmperor Willlam and the empress gave a dinner party to the Prince of Wales in the Elizabeth hgll of the castle, at which the British minister, Count von Buelow, and Count von Walder- Kéeé wére present. Bmperor Willlam in his epeech toasting King Bdward at the military luncheon in the barracks of the First Royal Dragoons, touchingly referred to the death of Queen Victoria and adverted to the wonderful colonial tour of the Prince of Wales as exemplifying the greatness and the ex- tent of the British emplre. He invited the company to drink to the health of the Prince of Wales as the representative of the British army, to which toast the Prince of Wales suitably responded.

German crowds haye a too deeply ablding respect for royal personages and are too thoroughly policed to ever jeer them. But in a city where the lifting of one's hat fs as uni- versal as ordinary civility it was singular to see the passing crowds with never a hat raised and to hear no murmur of applause The last experlence abroad of the Prince of Wales was his departure amid tnunder- ous cheers from the shores of Newfound- land, while the streets through Which the prince was obliged to be driven today on his way to visit the British ambassador | were without one single British flag. While receiving the most eluborate atten- tions from the family of Emperor Willlam and from German officlaldom, the Prince of Wales must feel the chilling attitude of the German public. Almost all the newepapers retrain trom editorial comment on his visit. LONDON, Jan. 27.~-Commenting upon the reception of the Prince of Wales in Berlin yesterday and the attentions shown him by Emperor Willlam, the London papers confess it could not be expected that the Inhabitants should be effusive in their wel- come, but are pleased to find that Emperor Willlam was so cordial. They especially note his kindly reference to the British army. DENOUNCE BRITISH REPORTS German Prews Says Charges of Inter- vention in Spanish-American Con- troversy Are Falwe. BERLIN, Jan. ~The German press throughout shows Irritation over the al- leged British attempts to throw suspicion on the policy entertalned toward the United States by Germany before the outbreak of the Spanish-American war. Nearly all the German newspapers re- gard these alleged attempts in the same light as does the Deutsche Tages Zeitung. Dwelling upon the motives which actuated the Interpellation of Mr. Henry in the Brit- Ish House of Commone, January 20, that paper says: “In the reports cabled to New York it is alleged that Germany was the instigator of a plan to bring about intervention by the European powers against the United States, This s a direct blow In the face of truth. But what of it? It might, perhaps, on the verge of Prince Henry's visit, create ill feelings n the United States, in whieh c the objects underlylng Mr. Norman's in- terpellation and the answer thereto of Lord Cranborne, as well as that of inventions sent abroad by English newspaper agencles, would be fulfilled.” TAKES MRS.

Mr. 1 | Phillips also was trained by Benson and there is a suspicion that he desired to get rid of Mrs. Brown Potter In order to make way for his friend. Mr. Tree has published a statement that he quite agrees with Mr. Phillips about the Brown Potter case. The production of “Ulysses’” has been fixed for February 1, the night an American company had previously announced for the first presentation of ““Arizona” at the Adel- phi.
