THE OHIO ELECTION.
Republicans Have the Legislature as
the Count Stands.

Republicans Have the Legislature as
the Count Stands.
Columbus, O., Nov. S.-The Ohio
legislature stands "a Republicans, 70
Democrats and one doubtful on the
official returns received up to tonight,
with dozen or more of the SO counties
very close.
There have been no material changes
except in Wood county, which will be
claimed by both parties until the
courts pass on the action of the super
visors. There have been no unusual
proceedings before the returning boards
of any of the counties, except that of
Wood, although both parties have had
their representatives and attorneys in
the county seats, wherever the vote
was close.
Chairman McConville, of the Demo
cratic state committee, has not changed
his claims of Democratic majority on
joint ballot, and will not do SO until
the official returns of all counties are in
and show the final result to differ from
the figures he has at hand.
Chairman McConville and others
1TO1A GI0 5GdIO oOA .
went to Cincinnati to confer with John
R. Mclean and other party leaders re-
garding the contests that are to be made
in the close counties.
Chairman Nash insists tonight that
the legislature stands rs Republicans to
70 Democrats, and that the majority on
joint ballot for senator will not be less
than five. He says he is tonight satis-
fed with the situation in Wood county.
What he feared was that the official
count might wipe out the small Repub-
lican plurality in that county. Since
the official tally sheets show plurality
of 81 for the Republican representative,
Judge Nash says he is willing and
ready to have the court pass on the case.
He says the law provides that the mem
bers of the boads of election cannot go
behind the returns, and the supreme
court has held that they nave no minis
terial powers whatever and cannot hear
evidence or use their discretion in
throwing out votes. That is left to the
courts, and to each branch of the legis-
lature in passing ON the credentials Of
its members.

POWERLESS TO ACT.
Secretary A1ger's Reply to the Klondike
Relief COMMITTEES.


Boston, Mass, Nov. 9.-While in
this city today to visit his son, who is
Harvard student, Secretary of War
Alger was seen in regard to the matter
of the request of the merchants of Port
land, Or, and the Chamber of Com
merce of that city, asking his official
assistance in sending supplies to the
Klondike, through the cooperation of
the war department. Secretary Alger
stated that his department is waiting
to get report on the matter from Cap
tain Ray. When last heard from Ray
was at Fort Yukon, and was going to
Dawson City. The secretary has or
dereo reindeer to st. Michaels, hoping
that there are stores of provisions there.
He added:
'We should have a report soon. Un-
til that comes, cannot do anything,
as l will not know the true condition
of affairs and cannot tell just what
steps it is best to take.
In the matter of the request of the
Portland Chamber of Commerce, Ihave
no authority to act in such a case.
Congress is the only body that can
place the forces of our departments at
their disposal for such thing. If
anything in the way of army transpor-
tation, if we had troops there, I could
act on my own responsibility. AS a
citizen, will do all can, but officially
/ can do nothing without the authori-
cation of congress-"

REPORT OF CRUCIFlxION.
Story That 1t Was Found in the Vatican
Denied.

New York, Nov. 8.-A dispatch to
the World from Rome says: The World
correspondent visited the vatican to OBJ
tain authoritative information regard
ing the reported finding in the vatican
archives of Pontius Pilates report to
Emperor Tiberius of the crucifixion of
Christ. One story current was that
the original report had been found,
and that the pope had ordered careful
study of it. Another was that the
document discovered was not Pilates
report, but a manuscript of A. D. 149,
referring to it, with other fragmentary
writings of the third and fifth CEN
turies, touching the same matter,
which have come to light before.
The correspondent found the vatican
authorities very reticent. Some of the
officials were even chary of admitting
that anything had been discovered at
all, and were extremely apprehensive
lest they might be represented as giving
color to an expectation that contempor-
airy accounts of the most solemn event
in the worlds history are in existence.
The subkeeper of the vatican archives
said:
His holiness naturally is extremely
cautious about permitting the publica-
tion of any document with the imprint
of the holy see the authenticity of
which may afterwards be reasonably
contested. His holiness has been pro-
foundly interested in the possibility of
the discovery of the original document
referred to, the one dated 149, but SO
far search has been fruitless."'
The correspondent gathered that the
manuscript of A. D. i49 only refers
to the earlier report, and contains no
details of any value, and that care
full, exhaustive search for the original
is now being made in the vatican by
experts specially commissioned by the
holy father, who are also to search for
reference to it in documents written
earlier than A. D. 149.
The first indication of the possibility
of the existene of this document was OBJ
tanned accidentally by an erudite monk
engaged in looking through the archives
of the fifth century and gathering facts
concerning the early history of the pap
acy. He followed the clew back to
manuscripts Of the third century and
then again laboriously pursued his task
until further allusion was found in the
document of A. D. 149. There the in
vestigation is brought to standstill
for the present, and the pope has given
strict injunctions that no translation
or references in the documents shall be
published until submitted for his sane
tion.
The attitude of the vatican authori-
ties on the matter is one of skepticism
as to the likelihood of any original an.
thentic information being unearthed.

CHINESE COALMINERS.
Illinois Operators Will Attempt to
Break the Strike.

Illinois Operators Will Attempt to
Break the Strike.
Chicago. Nov. 9.-The Times-Herald
says: Chinese coalminers are to take
the place of Americans in the Northern
Illinois district. An attempt will be
made to break the strike that exists,
and 800 skilled coolies have been picked
for the work. They will all bear arms,
live in gattling gun equipped stock
ade, and be guarded by 100 former
Chicago policemen. An agent of the
Chinese Six Companies was in Chicago
last week and made contract with the
Wilmington Coal Company to deliver
the 500 Chinese in the Wilmington
Braidwood district. The first consign-
ment of 200 will arrive next Tuesday,
and others will be on hand as soon as
provision can be made to take care of
them. Arrangements for an additional
1000 Chinese miners have been made,
conditional on the success of the first
venture.
Elaborate preparations have been
completed to take caro- of the first 500
Chinese and give them ample protec-
tiOn.@

Philadelphia, Nov. - Charles
Campbell and William ]. Nixon, of a
local organization, today left this city
on tandem for a 15,000-mile ride.
They were escorted as far as Whining
ton bv about 800 local riders. The men
ride as the result of a wager that they
cannot complete the distance in one
wear, and on their return show 81 900,
the start to be made without any
money, and with the necessary clothing
that can be carried in a traveling-case.
They are required to visit the leading
Southern cities and to be in Indianapo-
lis at the national L. A. w. next year.
The men expect to earn the 81, 900 by
selling bicycle sundries.

CHOIR WOULD NOT SING.
Because the Pastor Advocated the
Election of Low.

Because the Pastor Advocated the
Election of Low.
New York, Nov. 9.-The chorus
choir of the Peoples church, of which
Rev. Thomas Dixon, jr.. is pastor, con-
sisting of about 40 singers, refused to
sing today out of sympathy with Pro-
fessor Agramonte, their leader, because
the pastor last Sunday advocated the
election of Seth Low for mayor. Pro-
lessor Agramonte is a Cuban and a
member of the junta here. His son has
been in Spanish prison in Cuba for
two years. The Cubans say that Seth
Low was opposed to any intervention
of this country in Cuban affairs, and
has stood against the cause of Cuban
liberty since the outbreak of the last
war.
Mr.. Dixon, in his sermon today, said
that he sympathized with Professor
Agramonte, and had advocated voting
for Low last Sunday only because he
stood the best chance of election against
Tammany. He was opposed to Low
personally.

An Aeronaut's Fate.

Chicago, Nov. 8.-Aeronaut Stewart
Young was drowned in the lake at the
foot of Monroe street this afternoon
while attempting to descend from his
balloon in parachute. Young ascend
ed from the winter circus on Wabash
avenue. A brisk wind was blowing,
and the airship quickly veered to the
east. Immediately over Lake Front
Park, Young was seen to loosen his
parachute, and make ready to desert
the balloon. Evidently something went
wrong, for the aeronaut failed to drop,
and the balloon suddenly exploding fell
into the lake. Young was seen to
struggle violently to free himself, and
then sink. The lifesaving crew dragged
the lake for the body, but was unable
to bring it I'D.

To the Columbia River.

The Dalles, Or, Nov. 3.-The Ia
coma & Columbia River railroad is the
name of the new company that will
between Tacoma and The Dalles. Col
onel William Bailey, of New York, is
at the head of the company, the prin-
cipal portion of the stock being sub
scribed by New York capitalists.
When it was known that Colonel
Bailey was the purchaser of the Lake
Park road, a couple of weeks ago, it
was said that the road would probably
be extended to the rich mineral tracts
abou ..tEatonville and Mount Rainier,
but no one dreamed that the extension
would be carried as far as the Colum-
bia river.
1t now transpires, though, that ac-
tive operations will be commenced al
most Immediately, and pushed with
yigor until the two cities are connected.
1t is hoped to tap section of country
that is as yet practically unknown, but
which is thought to be exceedingly
rich in timber, minerals and fertility.
The road will go by way of Eatonville,
Nisqually, Tilton river coal fields and
on across the Cascades to The Dalles.
Negotiations are nearly completed for
terminal facilities that will be convent
ent to all shippers.
Tacoma will be the operative head
quarters of the new road, the head
office being at SO Broadway, New York
A freight and passenger Office has
been opened in Tacoma. The first
work will consist in Strengthening out
the old Lake park road and getting
the roadbed in shape.
