M'KlNLEY'S FENCES
THEY ARE BEING BRAcED UP IN
OHIO.
A MYSTERIOUS GATHERING
Well known Politicians Drop Into
Cleveland and Have a Conference
Foraker and Mckinley Men Meet
and Fix up Slate to Avoid "Fu-
ture Friction.

Cleveland, Jan. 2S.--There has been
a mysterious gathering of politicians
here. Early yesterday morning Charles
L. Kurtz, chairman of the republican
state committee, dropped into town.
lie was soon followed by Col. Conger,
both well-known friends OF Senator
elect Foraker, and ii was at once
known that they were mere for pur-
pose. Kurtz fitted around most all
day, seeing several leading republic
ans. He spent some time In the office
of M. A. Hanna, who is recognized as
the closest friend of Mckinley. The
conference lasted for more than an
hour
Last night Kurtz was in conference
with Col. Myron T. Herrick, also one
of McKinley's supporters. When
asked the purpose of his visit Mr..
Kurtz declined to go into details. 1t
is learned from another source, how
ever, that his talk with Hanna was Of
a political nature: that, in fact, the
makeup of the delegation at large
from Ohio to the st. Louis convention
was considered. The choice of dele
gates in various districts was also dis
cussed. 1t was proposed said this
gentleman, "and practically settled so
far as the preliminary conference can
settle 1T, that Hanna and James H.
Hoyt, Of this city, and Senator-elect
Foraker, and General Bushnell will be
the delegates at large. There is no
doubt but Ohio will be united for Nc
kinley, and the purpose now is to
provide against any future friction
and conflicts between the two ele-
ments of the republican party in the
state.

RUTHnS LAMENT.
Wishes Her Pa was a Policeman In
stead of President.

Washington, Jan. 2S.--Little Ruth
Cleveland Is now 5 years of age, and
she begins to understand the distinc-
ton she enjoys as a daughter of the
president Childhood's estimate of
greatness was charmingly illustrated
by Ruth yesterday.
One Of the policemen whose duty it
is to guard the private portion of the
grounds in the rear of the white house
is stalwart specimen of manhood. He
is habitually careful as to his attire.
and his buttons always shine with a
brilliant lustre. Sunday this police
man took his little 6-year-old daughter
with him that she might enjoy the
well-guarded flowers and the clean
walks of the private grounds during
his two hours of duty While the
policeman was pointing out the beauty
of the grounds to his daughter Misses
Ruth and Esther, under the escort of
their respective nurses, left the man
sion for healthful run in the fire.. h
air. Ruth ran ahead of her nurse,
and upon discovering girl of her own
age strutted up and surveyed her from
head TO foot After looking the little
girl over Ruth Strengthened herself UP
with ali air of Importance and said:
my papa is president; who is your
papa?"
The policemans daughter detiantly
replied: my papa is policeman.
Ruth glanced up at the burly foi m
ornamented with bright brass buttons,
and hanging her head in an abashed
manner replied.
II wish my papa was a policeman.

try, Your committee does not care to
discuss the causes of this menace or
the methods by which the peril may be

that congress shall investigate the sub
Ject in a thorough and comprehensive

mend the adoption of the following
resolution:

States Is hereby respectfully requested
TO appoint Il commission, or to direct
one of its own committees. to inquire
respecting the alleged invasion of our
market and the menace offered to
American manufacturing industry by
the products Of cheap Oriental labor,
and to determine what is the cause OF
this menace and what means should
be adopted to avert the threat, ming In
jury to domestic producers
Warner Miller offered an amend
ment that congress instead OF the sem
ate alone be requested TO appoint the
commission, The resolution as amend
ed was adopted.

High as was his nominal rank, Prince

that of his wife. Upon bis marriage
with her in 1886 he was accorded the
nominal rank OF royal highness, " but
his wife, Princess Beatrice Mary Vic
toria Fedora, the ninth daughter OF
