AFTER The BIG BALL.
After Five O'Clock Before the Last
Guest Left the Waldorf.
A GREAT NIGHT FOR THE FAVORED ONES.
Mrs. Bradley Martin Scored a Success,
If it Did Come High-Not Thing
Occurred to Mar the Har-
mony of the Occasion.

NEW YORK, Feb. lit was after 5
a III. before the last of Mrs. Bradley
Martins guests left the Hotel Waldorf
and started for home. 1t was not long
after that hour before the residents Of
the neighborhood of the hotel could
lind sleep for the din caused by the
hackmen and others who fingered
around after the ball was over.
1t had been great night for the
favored ones who had participated in
the event, They looked as though
they had thoroughly enjoyed them
selves as they stood waiting for their
coaches. The first guest was seenleav-
ing the hotel shortly after one o'clock.
lie was young man whose costume
was covered by u long overcoat. 1t
was close to three o'clock before the
carriage caller became busy, and from
that hour until five o'clock he
and his assistants, number of
district messengers and others,
yelled themselves hoarse. The
police on duty formed into squads
of ten and dozen men and
stood guard at the several doors and
about the coaches as they drove up to
receive their parties, A surprisingly
large number OF spectators stood on
the opposite side of the street watch
ing the masqueraders leave. They
were all men, and now and again the
policemen moved them along. All in
all the police arrangements were per-
feet, and not one accident or serious
delay occurred IN getting the people
away
Up to one o'clock the police had a
dead line established at Fifth avenue
and Thirty-third street, and no one
would they permit to pass unless they
were going to the hotel A similar
line held for $50 feet west of the hotel.

THE ORE POOL NEXT.
The Iron Ore Association Likely to
Follow the Steel Rail Pool.
MANY MINES MAY HAVE TO SHUT DOWN,
The Mining Population of Northern
Michigan an1 Minnesota Are Like
ly to Ses a S.asol Of Priya-
ton and Suffering.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-THE Tribune pub
fishes the following:
The Iron Ore association, which bus
controlled prices and fixed the output
of Lake Superior iron mines, stands
directly in the track Of the cyclone
which has swept away every comblna-
tion and pool in the iron and steel
trade for the division Of business and
the maintenance of prices,
What the Rockefeller Carnegie com
bination will do in the ore pool will
become manifest within n fortnight
The first announcement will be in tho
shape of large sales of ore for delivery
during the coming season Of navlga-
tion without regard to the pool
Even more important than the col
lapse of the steel rail pool, which
was scattered to the winds on Mon
day, will be the termination of
the ore pool. 1t will mean a terrific
war on prices by all the iron mining
companies of northern Michigan and
Minnesota, Towns now prosperous in
these regions will be effected, Mines
which have produced mountains and
made milliouaires may be given over
to rotting timbers and rusty pumps,
The population of the iron min
ing regions of the north viii
be shifted in the migration Of
miners to new fields. The stories of
privation and suffering which the iron
districts of the north have several
times given to the world since the
panic of four years ago may be retold
in the working out of the changes
which must come with free competi-
tion between the great mining com-
panies.
While the end of the steel rail pool
brings a reduction in wages it also
brings more work. but in the mines
new fields of labor are far away, and
in the development of the Messab ba
range far less men are required to
produce the ore than in the old mines,
which have furnished largest employ
ment to miners in the past.
There is serious question if the iron
ore pool has not already gone. In pre-
vious winters the production of every
important mine in the Lake Superior
region had been allotted and prices
fixed long before this time in Febru-
ary. AS yet no allotment has been
made and no prices fixed for the
coming season. Meetings have been
held at Cleveland, but they have been
fruitless in reaching an agreement.
The larger companies, believing gi-
gantic war can not be averted, appear
to be Indifferent over the results Of
these sessions.
On all sides the sentiment is general
that the ore pool can not be saved, and
that the same influences which have
wrecked every iron and steel com bina-
tion in existence at the beginning Of
the year will prevent the iron mining
companies from reaching an agree
ment.

Evansville, o., Filling Up for tho League
Convention.

GAINESVILLE, O., Feb. 1.-THE city is
filing up with delegates to the repub-

Chas f. Leach arrived from Cleveland
Wednesday night and brought the
disappointing word that Hon. NJ, A.
Hanna would not come with the Cleve-
land excursion. He and Hon. Sylves-
ter Everett will not arrive until Fri
day noon
The executive committee has decided
that no one will be admitted to the
banquet without paid ticket This
includes the gentlemen of the press.
President Leach says the attendance
at this convention will be far larger
than ever before, A resolution will be
introduced indorsing Hanna for
United States senator, but President
Leach says he will promptly ruleit out
Of order.
Chairman A. Z. Starr, of the COM

SHERMAN SUCCESSION.
GOV. Bushnell WIN Call n Special Session
of the Ohio Legislature.

Gov Bushnell WIN Call n Special Session
of the Ohio Legislature.
CHICAGO, Feb. IA Tribune special
hom Columbus, o., says:
A special session of the legislature
is 20 be called to elect successor to
John Sherman. The call for the meet
ing of the legislature is to be issued on
Friday, March &, and that body is to
convene at 10 a. m. on Tuesday, March
9. The sole purpose of the special ses-
sion is to be the election of United
States senator to fill the unexpired
term of Mr. Sherman, and Gov. Bush
nell is to be the man.
This information has got out from a
source that leaves no doubt as to its
authenticity. The call for the special
session of the legislature is to be issued
The governor will, of course, be at the
nations capital on March to attend
the inaugural On March S, according
to usual custom, the ewly-in augurated
president will send the names of the
mem bers of his cabinet to the senate
for confrmat tion, and Gov. Bushnell
will be conveniently at hand to per-
sonally receive Mr., Sherman's resigna-
tion as senator. Then the call for the
special session of the legislature is to
be issued.
The announcement from Canton that
there would be no more appointments
made for tho cabinet before Inaugural
ton lends color to the view that a
place is being kept for Hanna,

OHIO POLITICS.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 1I.-"People who
are on the inside of Ohio politics are
immensely interested in the fight that
is going on between Foraker and
Bushnell on one side and Mark Hanna
on the other" said Mr.. W. b. Towers,
of the Buckeye state, to a reporter
II heard a shrewd republican leader
out in Cincinnati, the other day, say
that the outcome of the war would be
a compromise between the principals,
whereby Bushnell would concede
Hanna the senatorship on condition
that the latter land the governor in
cabinet place. The terms of the bargain
are not pleasant to the Cleveland
man, but they are the best he can
get. In fact he has no other route by
which he can reach the goal of his
ambition, This arrangement, of
course, shelves Gen. Alger, but that
can't be helped. Self-preservation is
the first law among Ohio politicians
