COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 3.-There is no ma
terial change in the senatorial situation to-
day, but great amount of work is being
done, and the crowds are increasing in size.
The feature of the forenoon was the re-
ported withdrawal of all the candidates for
speaker with the exception of Mr.. HyselL
This has given increased life to the Brice
boom for senator. Mr.. Hysell is recognized
as the speakership candidate of the Brice
element in the senatorial contest, although
Col. Brice and his managers claim they
have nothing to do with it, and have been
steering clear of the speakership fight.
MMAHON ARRIVES.
John A. McMahon, who is considered the
third most prominent candidate, arrived at
noon, accompanied by quite large follow
ing. The most important rumor, which is
vet confined to select circles, is that the
democratic members of the legislature,
since coming to the city, have held con-
ference and concluded to seat Marquis for
lieutenant governor over Lampson with
whirl, and without delay, and then bring
out Gov. Campbell as the chief opponent to
Col Brice for the Senate. This report lacks
confirmation.
THE CAUCUSES.
COLUMBUS. O.. Jan. 8, II P. M.-The
House and Senate caucuses Will be held TO-
morrow morning for the nomination of
candidates fer the Offices in both branches.
The ssnatorship caucus is fixed for most any
day next week, rumors placing it all the
way from Tuesday to Saturday.
The report early in the day that an effort
would be made to seat MARQUIS for lieuten-
ant governor aud take up Gov. Camp Jell as
a candidate and the principal opponent to
Col. Brice is discredited. 1t is known that
there was a move of this kind q week or
Two ago. but it was found to be impracti-
cable, and the scheme was abandoned. This
is the information gained from several leg
islative members who were cognizant OF
the scheme.

have no figures to give as to their strength

claiming their preferences outside of few

Lewis Greenleaf, son of the wall-knowu

drowned while rowing in canoe on the
Brandywine, near Henry Clay, yesterday
afternoon. Greenleaf, with two other
young men, William K Reynolds and
Richard Pusey, went TO the creek to try
new canvas canoe which he had made.
Greenleaf went to dock on the creek
and getting into the boat, pushed off from
shore. The force of the push sent the
frail boat about fifteen feet from shore.
Young Greenleaf then reached for his
paddle, which was lying in the stern of
the canoe. In doing this the boat was
slightly over-balance& and shipped q
large quantity of water and Immediately
sank. Greenleaf was unable to swim, but
did not make any sound and made a
brave effort to stay afost,
The water here is between ffteen and
twenty feet deep, but his companions
we're not alarmed &C first as they thought
he could swim When he sank they
saw that he was not playing and they
Immediately ran to a boat which was
chained to the tree. Before the chain
could be broken the young man had gone
under for the last time
The young men who we're with him Sc
cured help and dragged the river. The
body was found in half an hour about
twenty feet from the shore, end was re-
moved to his fathers house near Rising
Sun.
His mother who was visiting friends in
