OHIO SENATORSH!P.
LITTLE DOUBT BUT SHERMAN
WILL BE ELECTED.
Foraker's Adherents Declare That
Harrison VIII be knitted if Again
Candidate.
Special 10 the REcoRD-UNroS.


COLUMBUS Ohio, Jan. 5.-The greatest
Senatorial contest the Republicans in
this State have ever known is practically
at an end. Every political indication
points to the nomination of John Sher-
man tomorrow by a majority GOT ten
or twelve votes over Foraker, although.
of course, this is not conceded by the
friends of the latter. Foraker's friends
still declare he has chance to win, but
the Sherman people consider their victory
as already assured. The press Of Ohio
this morning generally considers the
contest at an end. The bitterness of the
Foraker people toward the National Adj
mlnistratlon IS intense, and w. S. Cap
pellar of Mansfield, one of Governor
FOraker's leading managers, to-day said
| whether Sherman be nominated or not
beyond this time he is political blank
i'll Ohio politics, for the reason that he
| Will have no future upon the political
carpet, State or National. An outrageous
| interference of the Federal Administra-
ton is conspicuous to all, and if the Har-
rison Administration hopes to succeed
itself and carry Ohio, it win have to
climb barbed-wire fence to be friendly
with Foraker and his following in this
State.
The Senatorial contest will leave sore
places III every county, township and
school district, and if Mckinley, the in
coming Governor, can comprehend and
realize the situation and be able TO heal
up the wounds, he will have performed
very creditable feat. But there are those
who believe if Sherman is nominated for
the Senate it necessitates the nomination
of Blaine for the Presidency to swing
| Ohio into the Republican column"
This statement Of Cappellar is being re-
ceived as an admission that the Foraker
! people purpose to array themselves
against President Harrison and carry the
State delegation III the National Conven-
| ton for Blaine, or in the absence of his
candidacy, for Senator Cullom of Illinois.
or some other declared candidate for the
Presidency.
For the first time in the contest the
Sherman people to-day gave names and
| figures. Chairman Hahan Of the Central
Committee, says: sherman will have
| DO votes beyond all question, Is of these
will be Senators and II Representative
If the vote is taken now, that would be
my estimate of the result. However. it
may be increased Representative Dunn,
who has been claimed by the Foraker
people, this morning unqualifedly de-
| clared for Sherman.

bookmakers found that there were two
men who stood to win 81. 100 if Congress
and Rosa G.. took first places. This
aroused suspicious, which were not al
layed even when cipher dispatches were
received from these points announcing
that both horses had won. Inquiry was
made by telegraph To New York. and
reply received by the bookmakers to the
effect that an organized effort had been
made to swindle the pool-rooms by means
OF bogus dispatches, and it was stated
among others that Omaha bookmakers
lost $4,000 and Kansas City and Denver
$500 each in this way. Full details of
the plan have not vet been received.

HARTFORD Conn.,, Jan. 5.-The Su-

power of acting on case not yet lost by
The General Assembly. The lack of law
to determine such disputes is pointed out,
and the fact that the General Assembly
is responsible for such lack, since the
Constitution directs it to make laws to
that end.
The court says, in conclusion: "To
decide what person IS lawfully elected to
any office is a Judicial process, and where
there is no tribunal especially authorized
t. make such decision, the courts must

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 5.-The Superior
Judges will elect Presiding Judge of the
court for the year. The practice has been
to give Republican Judge one year, a
Democratic Judge the next, and so on.
1t has also been the practice generally to
select the Judges whose terms of office
sooner expire. When the court was or
ganized in 1880 there were six Democratic
and six Republican Judges. The first
change gave the Democrats majority.
and this majority has been maintained,
varying from time TO time, ever since.
until by the death of Judge Hoge and the
appointment of Judge Slack as his sue
ceSsor, the court now stands six Demo-
Gratis and six Republicans. 1t is stated
by Judges that the Presiding Judgeship
should go to the Republicans this year,
as the Democrats had it last year in the
person Of Judge Wallace, and if this idea
is carried out the selection will, it is said.

ever, that he had seen no reason to modify
his former Geographic report based on
Investigation OF the Valparaiso mob by
officers of the Baltimore.

number, were entirely unarIned, and

Captain Schley's attention was called to
the report of the Procurator Fiscal of
Valparaiso, which stated that all but two
witnesses declared the police had done
their duty.
Il do not know what my men testi-
fed said the Captain, ''but | am sure it
was nothing like that. After much
trouble, the Chilean authorities allowed
Lieutenant Henry McCrea to be present
at the examination of the men, but they
swOre him to secrecy and he cannot make
public what was said.
''They also made the sailors sign two

PINE BLUFF Ark, Jan. 4.-Linwood,
a village twelve miles from here, is in a
ferment of excitement, caused by the
work Of mob of dozen negroes, led by
white man named Puryear. This band
has been terrorizing the town for some
time. It's members had been circulating
petitions for the removal fthe railroad
station, but they were strongly opposed
by Dr.. Bryan. In revenge the men went
to DR.. Bryan's cotton gin and fired it,
and then burned the depot. They then
went through the street firing their Win
ehesters to keep the villagers in doors.
The Sheriff Immediately organized
posse, and at last accounts had lodged
Puryear and three of his gang in Jail
The pecuniary loss VIII not be very
great but the citizens are determined
to rid the community of the band, and
have thoroughly organized themselves
