SHERMAN'S CINCH,

A SecrsC ballot the Vain Hope Of

lowing.

COLUMBUS, Jan s. - The greatest
Senatorial contest that the Republicans
of Ohio have ever known is practically
at an end. Every political Indication
points TO the nomination Of John Sher-
man, by a majority of ten or twelve
votes over 5, b, Foraker although of
course, this is not conceded by the
friends Of the latter.
Mr.. Forakers followers still declare
that he mas chance to win, but tbs
sherman people consider their victory
as already assured aud insist that the
Ex-Governor is now maintaining an APP
pearance OF confidence in the sole hope
of keeping his supporters together in
order that he may so down with votes
enough behind him to show how nearly
he has come TO defeating sherman. The
press of Ohio generally consider the
contest at an end
For the first time in tho contest tho
sherman people toe day give names and
figures. Chairman Hahn, OF the State
Central committee, said
"Mr, sherman viii have fifty-sIx
votes, beyond all question, Fifteen OF
these will be Senators aud forty-one
Representatives. If the vote was taken
now that would be my estimate OF the
result. However, IL may be increased"
"Nho are the Senator's" was asked
OF him.
Here they are: Il, G. Carpenter,
Jeremiah Carpenter, Phillips, Abbott
Rawlings, Balm, lden, Nichols, Snyder,
Eckley, OIL, Lampson, Spencer, Hide

"And the representatives.
~ do not feel at liberty 20 give them
now. My estimate viii hold good, how
ever. and have no hesitation in saying
that Representative Clapp OF Geauga,
and Mccoy of Columbinna, win vote for

Baltimore Amir,


Baltimore Amir.
VALPARAISO, Jan. 5 The Chilean
government has cabled orders to Min
lister Pedro Mont at Washington to
make sincere apology 20 the United
States for the unfortunate and deplor-
able attacks upon the Baltimore sailors
Oct 10 last. The apology is unquali-
fed in its character, it is said
Other matters which have been In
dispute between Chile and the United
States are to be speedily considered by
the new administration, From semi
official sources it is reported that tho
reason the Santiago police are kept in
the vicinity az the American legation
is that the lntendente of the city is in
constant receipt of letters containing
threats to burn and sack the legation.
IL is said on the best authority that tho
government desires to have the police
near at hand so as TO prevent the exc
cution Of any such threats. 1t is nc
secret here that many Of those who
cherish ideas of war between the
United States and Chile are friends OF
Bhlmaceda.
1t is learned that the German Minis
ter Baron Gutschmidt, offered the
service of his country as mediator on
his own personal ,pou&'hility. This
Is in line with his course of action ever
since the present government came into

The change in the democratic plan ne.
oessltates their admission first of all that
the Mckinley bill is not as bad as they
pictured 1t last year, when they lied about
Mckinley prices and created political
panic of which the present democratic
majority of $50 in the national house was
the result. They declared then that demo-
Gratis would repeal that measure at the
earliest opportunity afforded them. be-
cause II was iniquitous and ruinous. Now
they say that their cries OF last year were
"a good enough Morgan until after cleo.
ton, and that the Mckinley bill will be
far sort of a measure when patched
up" little by the democratic party.
1t is true of history in this country that
when the business men, the educational
instructors and the religious teachers of
the country stand together on any great
principle or policy of government they
Sweep everything before them. They rare
y combine to hurt themselves, but when
the mighty moral force of such a comb i-
nation comes into effect there is nothing
that can stay its triumphant success. In
the dark hours of the rebellion, when a
patty. had permitted the copperheads cf the
north to win succe sses in some of the state
elections, the mighty forces of business
Interest, educational power and religious
betterment came together and swept
the country like whirlwind. They de
manded hat well enough should be let
alone, and they stood by the flag and
the union, am the rebellion went to the
wall.
The same sentiment is beginning to
exert itself at the present time. 1t Is dom
inant in the great financial centers like
New York, Boston, Chicago, st. Louis and
San Francisco. 1t permeates the eastern
manufacturing cepters of the west and
south which are just beginning to feel the
