OMAHA, March 4—One of the incidents of the heated municipal campaign, which loses to-morrow, was the tearing Acwn Gestroying of an American Hax and ubstituting therefor a red flag flagpole in Mayor Moore’s yard some time Baturday night. This morning the Maj who is running for re-election, was a: tounded to see the red cloth flying where | erstwhile the Stars and Stripes floated. As the rope was cut he bad to call on the fire department to run a ladder and 1ake down the red cloth. then ran up a brand-new American flag, and says he does not propose to let any one oull it down.

It ig*probable that with the pres- | sure of other important business this measure may go over until next session, | but bills will be taverably reported in bHothy, houses during the present session. There are tew men in either house who | It proj are opposed to the construction of the proposed cabe. The only difference of | opinion is as to the manner in which it | should be dome. Bills have been intro- duced in_both hotses providing for the construction of the cable directly by the Government, and these have been strongly urged by Brigadier General Greely, chiet of the signal corps, by the Navy Depart- ment and by other departments of the Government. Other bills have been intro- duced providing for the construction of a cable by a private corporation and for the payment of an annual subsidy by the Gov- ernment in return for the free trasmission of all Government messages. In the Senate these bills have been re ferred to the Committee on Naval Af- fairs, and in the House they are before the Committee on Interstate and Forelzn Commerce. Hearings have been given by both committees to officials of the Cov- ernment and to representatives of varions companies seeking authority to lay the cable. The House committee has already gone | so far as to decide by a majority vote in [ favor of the constructian by a private company rather than by the Government. It has also been decided that the franchise shall be open to competition and shall be awarded to the company offering to take the lowest subsidy withfn the limit of $400.000 per vear for twenty years, and guaranteeing the completion of the ~able within the shortest limit of time. The committee has also decided to provide that the cable shail be of American manu- facture and that it shall be laid by ships of American register and flying the Amer- ican flag. STRONG OPPOSITION TO THE MEAT BILL Resolutions Adopted by the Execu- tive Committee of the German Commercial Convention. BERLIN, March 4—Regarding the re- port cabled from Washington that Secre- tary Hay had received assurance from the German Government that the meat | bill would be changed, United States Em- bassador White said to-day that he had | no information to confirm it, but he ex- | pected this assurance would be given. | The executive committee of the German | Commereial Convention yesterday adopted unanimously a resoluiion against the committee report on the meat bill, de- | claring that such a prohibition of meat | imports would considerably injure meat | consumption on the part of a large sec- | tion of "the nation, particularly the in- dustrial masses. The protest concludes as follows: We protest on behalf of the industries, of the commerce and shipping of the Ger- man fatheriand.” The Influential Weser Zeitung points out forcibly that the meat imports, at a conservative estimate, amount to' only 50,000,000 marks, whereas the exports to | the United States reach 368,000, marks, | all of which would be threatened by the prohilition of the bill. It says: | "“A tarif war would make the British {and the Belglan successors to the_Ger- man trade witn the United States. More- | over, the Americans themselves would | develop those industries which Germany now supplies. —— - ‘Wrestler Costello Killed.

All sorts of wreckage is on the beach between Point Judith and Watch Hill and the life save believe that other vessels were also wrecked by the gale. The Watch Hill life savers found what ap- peared to be a portion of a bridge deck house and the Point Judith station re- ported finding a portion of a stalrway, evidently belonging to a barge or a ves- sel of some sort.

M’KINLEY CRITICIZED IN A BISHOP’S SERMON President Listens While a Man of the Cloth Speaks in Behalf of the Filipinos. NEW YORK, March 4.—Although Pres- ident McKinley was up late last night at- tending the banquet of the Ohio Soclety, he arose about 8 o'clock this morning. Later, accompanied by his brother Ab- ner and Secrctary Cortelyou, he attend- ed morning services at the Fifth-avenue Presbyterian Church.. Quite a erowd gathéred on the avenue after the service and greeted .the President and his party with vigorous handclapping. The rresident remained in the hotel until about 4 o'clock, when he went out for a drive with Mr. Hawk, proprietor of the hotel. They went up Fifth avenue, éhrough Central Park and Riverside rive. Mrs. McKinley remained at the hotel all afternoon receiving callers. Some of those who called were former Governor and Mrs. Morton and Misses Morton, General Anson MgCook and United States District Attorney Burnett. £ At 10 o'clock the President and Mrs. McKinley and party left the hotel on the way to Jersey City, where the President nr\:l hll(s wife took the train, leaving at 12 o'clock. I am “IL enjoyed my trip |mmen!el¥,: 3 resident enjoying perfect health,” the said as he left the hotel. Part of the sermon of Bishop Andrews to-day to which President McKinley Mls- tened has been pointed to as a criticism of the President’s Philippine policy. Bishop Andrews discoursed on charity and love, taking as his text the fifth verse of the first chapter of the first epistle to Timo- thy: “Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned.” “Whatever mH be the reason of de- pravity,” said Bishop Andrews, “what- ever may be the doctrine of depravity, man ioves his family, his neighbors and his country. This love makes society pos- sible. We should love our friends and neighbors and country, but we should love the people of every other race as we love ourselves. What is patriotism but a nar- row care of one’s own land and city, such as the Romans had when they trampled out the lives of whole nations? ““There are indications of a tendency not to value men of other races as we value those of our own. We cannot recognize the excellence of the man ‘with almond eyes, or whose hair is curled a little too much.

Gl Oscar' Speaks of Conditions in the United States and Sends Greet- ‘ings to Scandinavian- Americans. Solngimen the Associated Press., Correspondence of STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Feb. 12.—As was cabled at the time, a representative of the Associated Press was recently accorded an audience with King Oscar of Sweden and Norway. The following details of the interview are interesting: The correspondent arrived at the royal palace at 10 o'clock in the merning. Mounting five flights of stairs, he entered an ante-chamber, where one non-commis- sioned officer from each of the regiments of the Life Guards stood at attention. Several lackeys helped the correspondent to take off his overcoat. He kept his hat, as it is the custom to carry it in the hand when admitted to the ptresence of the King. In the next room the correspondent was received by the King's adjutant. After a short conversation he took the correspondent into another room, a grand salon, one of the most beautiful and gor- geous rooms in the palace. Jutant introduced the correspondent to the Chamberiain, who thereupon went into the King's private rooms. Returning in a minute ne told the visitor the King was ready to receive him. King Oscar was standing in the center of the room, dressed in the uniform of a general of the Swedish army. His Ma- Jesty is more than six feet tall. His face nas an expression of-sympathy and intel- ligence. Irom his sprightly movements one_would never dream that he is a man of 71 years. The King advanced a few steps toward the correspondent, extended his band and bade him welcome to Stock- holm. His Majesty was very much inter- ested in hearing about conditions in Amer- ica. Nothing that has hapened there nas escaped him. He spoke of the feud in Kentucky and about the educational in- stitutions with the same knowledge of facts. He regretted very much to hear of the death of General Lawton in the Philippines, showed a great interest in what was taking place on the islands and asked many questions in regard to the | progress of the campaign. Naturally the King was much concerned about the war in South Africa. It must be remembered that Great Britain, though in nowise sa ally of Sweden and Norway, is the best guarantee for the independence of the two northern countries. Great Britain’s power once broken it would not be long before the little nations would be swallowed up by their mighty neighbors in the East. From King Oscar's conversation the cor- respondent believed his Majesty was in favor of the British in South Africa, However, he spoke in the highest terms of the great strategic ability of the Boers and expressed a fervent wish that war in the Philippines and the Transvaal war would soon be over. As to the internal troubles of his two countries, the King naturally would not 'Keak for publication. Toward the end of the audience the King took the corre- spondent into his private v\nrlun*1 room, selected a splendid likeness of hi sald it was the best portrait of and wrote his name across it and asked the correspondent to keep it as a memento of the audience. The King then sent through the Asso- ciated Press the greeting to the Scandina- vians of the United States which was con- tained in the cable dispatch. A few days later the correspondent was received by the new Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Lagerheim, who in the course of a conversation talked of the troubles between Sweden and Norway. He said in part: “I think both countries might meet each other half way on many of their differ- ences and thus mutual concessions take away the bitter feeling that exists in some respects. You doubtless know that in several instances, ‘}: for example, to the nationality of the Minister of For- e Affairs, Sweden has made concessions, but I repeat all concessions must not come from one quarter.” Mr. Lagerh‘un sald he was sure that most of the talk of unfriendliness between the two Rooplu was only on the surface, if even there, adding that if the time ever came when it would be necessary to make a common stand in defense of the union he had no doubt that th orld would l.!:cdontche Swedes and nr:e'l'vlt.m unitea ——— Took Carbolic Acid.

NEW YORK, March 4—In a speech at the one hundred and twenty-second anni- versary of the birth of Robert Emmet, which event was celebrated to-night at he, Academy of Music by the combined lan-na-Gael organizations of the city, ‘W. Bourke Cockran bitterly denounced the attitude of the administration at ‘Washington toward England in her af- fairs in South Africa. He said in part: Englamd sceks to some extent to justify this war by our example—the example set by this Government, not by the people. Now, it is ‘sald again, that the people of this country must remain neutral. That {s as it should be. But I deny that this country has been neutral. There ‘was, long before this war in South Africa be- gan, a question between England and the United States regarding the Alaskan boundary. There was a clainr pending. I don’t say that the moment this war began in South Africa we should have made a claim agatnst England, | but I do say that the advancement of a claim | should not have been delayed one moment. We ceased at that time to be neutral. If the United States administration had gone on | enforcing that claim this war would never | have been begun. The’Canadian troops would | have had abundant business at home. In his speech last night, President McKinley said there was no alliance with England. I believe that. It is not an alliance. It's a | surrender; a surrender of the control of our | forelgn policy into the hands of the Foreign Office. We don’t get anything. We give up and the Government discharges a Consul at | Pretorla because he complained that his mail | had been opened.

They carrled out Thomas Harper. a one-legged man, and Ed Walker, who had been burned amd partially ‘overcome by the smoke. St@phen Carney was found lying on the floor in his room. The flames had already burned the old marw’'s face, hands and | body, but a policeman g!(‘kld him up and | carried him out of the buillding. The fire- | men succeeded in putting out the flames | without great loss to the building. After the fire was out they began a search. The bodies of five of the victims were found on the fifth. floor, where the fire did th most damage. Buttie was suffocated iu | his bed. John Clark was found on the ! floor of his room dead. as was also FEd- ward Doyle. The colored man was found dead at a window, and tne unidentified man had been overcome just as he was dragging himself from the window to the fire escape. All the bodies were taken to the Morgue.
