The municipal ownership proposition was generally Indorsed by the press on the expectation that its carrying would strengthen the city in .its negotiations with the existing companies and would commit the city to the policy of "ultimate ownership." j City's Dobt Prevents AotiWm The adoption of this prfijjjBition means little, because it is ' jBlutely Impossible for the City to D\ J it into execution until its debt incumng privileges are enlarged by the legislature.

Early for Elkin, Probably the greatest contributory cause to the affirmative vote on municipal owuershlp is the miserable street car service which Chicago has today. • "The railroad holds out splendidly and works regularly, all the attaches of the road being imbued with the high Importance of their task. Sentries are posted at the boundary and are doing duty in the neutral zone dividing China and Manchuria. The weather is warm, and the rivers are open. In Port Arthur all is quiet, and the inhabitants have become accustomed to a state of war, though some of them are impatient that the enemy has been for so long a time invisible." Harrlsburg, April 5, 1904—11.30 p. m.—The State capital tonight bustled with the busy scenes usually attendant on State Republican conventions. The city is thronged with a host of politicians from all sections of the State, Including Senator Penrose, Attorney General Elkln and many other Republican leaders. The Luzerno delegation, about 100, besides its quota of delegates, arrived here at 4.30, and the suite of six rooms engaged at Hotel Lochiel as headquarters of Judge Wheaton, candidate for the Supreme Court nomination, immediately assumed a lively aspect.

The announcement that the governor declined the nomination was received with general satisfaction by the delegates, and the decision of the party leaders to tender the nomination to ex-Attorney General John P. Elkin was much more satisfactory and settled beyond question the possibility of any of the various aspirants receiving any. thing but the complimentary votes of the delegates from their own immediate vicinity. On all sides were heard words of commendation for the Luzerne delegation, which made the strongest play of any of the counties having candidates for the Supreme bench, by deciding to bring the campaign for Judge Wheaton to a close and fall in line with the Philadelphia and Allegheny delegations for Attorney Elkin.

The announcement that the governor declined the nomination was received with general satisfaction by the delegates, and the decision of the party leaders to tender the nomination to ex-Attorney General John P. Elkin was much more satisfactory and settled beyond question the possibility of any of the various aspirants receiving any. thing but the complimentary votes of the delegates from their own immediate vicinity. On all sides were heard words of commendation for the Luzerne delegation, which made the strongest play of any of the counties having candidates for the Supreme bench, by deciding to bring the campaign for Judge Wheaton to a close and fall in line with the Philadelphia and Allegheny delegations for Attorney Elkin.
