COLUMBUS, March 15.-The effect of the de-
velopments in Cincinnati and Columbus, taken
together with the Payne Investigation, prom
lses, republicans here claim, to place the democ-
racy upon the defensive for a time at least.
Inc country democracy are fully awakened To
the Importance of casting off the element that
nave gained control of the party machinery
ana have run things carelessly during the
past six years. The tact is fully recognized that
party success under such leadership only re-
suits in modification and shame, and the iudi-
cations are already apparent that there must
be radical change In the conduct of the party
to awaken any interest in the rural sections,
and democratic Congressman that are now
holding seats by slim majority fully recog-
nize the fact that their career at Washington
VIII be brief, unless heroic treatment is resorted
TO, and that most speedily. These methods
have had their day i'm Ohio affairs for a brief
period at least, and republicans predict that
That there VIII be a large republican victory
should the same element successfully run
county conventions and dictate nominations
with that degree OF assurance that marked
their course during 1885.
The bad management of the state institu-
uons, the bankrupting of the state treasury in
two years, rendering il necessary for the state
10 either borrow money or reduce the appro-
priations below the actual necessities, is an ar
gument that the republicans are making with
force.
For state officers to be elected this year little
mas been said. Gen. Robinson, the present
secretary of state, will not be candidate for
denomination. He has been in public lite for
many years, and the office is not entirely 10 his
taste. The name of ColC.L l.. Poorman has been
suggested as the republican candidate Tor that
office. Mr. Poorman has been the chairman OF
the house committee on privileges and cleo
bringing the Cincinnati frauds TO the public
gaze.

TOLEDO, March l5.-Early this morning
people were aroused by tremendous explo-
sion. Many rushed into the streets, and were
directed 10y the light of an enormous confiaCra-
ton 10 the linseed OIL mills OF Narney, Taylor X
Co., along the river, which were ON fire. The
mills consisted OF an elevator used for the stor-
ing OF naNseed, a large building containing ma
chinery for grinding oil. and "A large two-story
brick building used for "A refinery. The firo
was discovered in the latter and an alarm
turned in, but before the nremen reached the
scene a large iron tank OF gasoline, which was
used Tor some purpose i'm refining linseed OH,
exploded with "A tremendous report entirely

The mills were among the largest in the coun-
try. The origin OF the fire Is unknown, the the
ory OF spontaneous combustion and that of in-
cendiarism both having supporters. There
were over 100 barrels of naphtha in the build
ing. stored in iron tanks, which exploded al
most simultaneously. The shock was like an

days. Notice was posted at Marshall, Texas,
yesterday that the Texas Pacific shops there
would be reopened this morning, and that
strikers who were not Objectionable 10 the off,
GERS ofthe road would be employed. The knights
of Labor at Marshall yesterday unanimously
resolved not 10 go TO work. Reports from rail-
road officials at points along the Texas Pacific
say that strikers are asking to be taken back.

ENGLAND AND GERMANY INCREASING THEIR
NAyIEs.-The simultaneous decision OF the Ger
man and English governments TO vastly increase
their naval armaments this year, although both
have already immense budgets which they
almost despair of forcing through their respect
i've parliaments, is exciting much comment In
Europe. The German proposal is to build
twelve fast steel-armored cruisers with all the
modern improvements in ordnance and ma
chinery, and a still larger number OF torpedo
boats, TO cost over 2O0,000,OO0 marks. In
England the situation is about the same. Here
the proposal is to push rapidly to completion
the costly ironclads ordered by the Salisbury
government at the time OF the Afghan war
scare.
