COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 6.-rhe cam'
palgn ending with the election Of Tues
dav has been one OF the most remark
able in the history of Ohio. Never be-
fore were the Republicans SO well or
ganized as Chairman Daugherty and
Secretary McElroy have them this time,
but never was there more uncertainty
as 10 Just what the Democrats have
been doing during the campaign. Theirs
has been a gum shoe campaign
throughout, but that there viii be a
Republican victory goes without saying
The Republican plurality Is placed by
the political prognosticators at all the
way from 5000 up to $4,000, though the
careful ones are claiming It viii hover
around the 25,OOO mark. The popular
figure. however, Is 10000.
There are five state tickets In the
fieid, us follows: Republican, headed
By Hon. Charles Kinney, OF Scioto coun-
ty, for secretary OF state; Demoerauc'
headed bv Upton K. CUTLERY, OF Mar
James A. Graft. OF Cincinnati; PrOhibt-
lion. headed by Thomas Brown, OF
Muskingum; Socialist Labor headed bB
John r, Flynn, Of Stark county. Mr..
Kinney. the Republican standard bear
en- has already served one term very
aeceptably, and will be reelected with
out doubt. In fact, there Is no longer
any fight being made against him, the
Democratic efforts being now all turned
against Hon. Joseph Z. Blackburn, OF
Belmont county, the candidate for re-
election as state dairy and food COM
missioner. HIS duties are such that
certain manufacturers OF food and
drugs are naturally turned against him.
Their opposltlon has encouraged the
Dam6cracy 10 concentrate the fight on
him. But the whole Republican ticket
viii be elected without doubt, from top
10 bottom. Chairman Daugherty and
Secretary McElroy have been very ably
assisted In the campaign by Assistant
Secretary Martin Cowen, OF Belmont
county, who has had charge OF the In
terests of Commissioner Blackburn In
the fight that Is being made on him.
But the chief Interest centers In the
congressional elections. The people OF
the state hardly appreciate the fact that
this Is a matter that Is attracting ma
ionai attention, but the officials at Re
publican. state headquarters have been
made TO understand It by the congress
slonal committee at Washington. OF the
present twenty-one members OF Con-
gress from this state. six are Democrats
and the remaining fifteen are Republl-
cans. Undoubtedly the Republicans
will re-elect their candidates in all O.:
these fifteen districts, and they have
strong hopes OF gaining two.

GOVERNMENT OF CUBA,
General wade win PROBABLY Command
the Troops There.

General wade viii Probably Command
the Troops There.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. s.-The
government of Cuba has given the ad-
minIstration much concern and rs form
is not yet definitely determined upon.
Since issuing the order designating the
troops to go to Cuba. there has been
considerable talk at the war depart
ment about the probable Commander Of
troops in Cuba and the organization Of
a government, civil and military. The
probabilities now are that Cuba viii be
designated as one department and plac-
ed under the command OF one oticer.
The general Impression seems to be that
the otflcer will be Major General Wade,
now chairman of the Cuban military
commission, whose duties as a member
OF this commission has fitted him for
the office. The President and Secretary
Alger have great confidence in General
Wade and believe he combines the mills
ltary and civil qualities necessary for
the supreme command In Cuba when
our occupation is complete.
There has been an intlmatlon that
General Brooke, who has been In com-
mand In Porto Rico might be selected
for command IN Cuba, but such Is not
the present intention. General Bro6kdi
who ranks all the major generals In the
volunteer service, commands only about
ak thousand troops in Porto, less than
some brlgadier generals who are In
command OF divisions and much less
than several generals In command OF
'eorps. It Is generally understood that
General Brooke does not care to remain
any longer in Porto Rico than the de-
partment actually thinks his services
are required. There has been some Gug-
gestion that General Merritt might re-
turn and take command In Cuba, but
the administration thinks the selection
OF General Wade would be better.
General Wade ranks all the volunteer
major generals now in service and VIII
rank General Lee In command OF the
Seventh corps, although the latter VIII
be In actual command Of the district OK
Havana.
It is possible that the department OF
Cuba will be divided Into districts, some
OF greater and some OF less Importance
The principal districts would be HaYa-
na, Santiago and Cienfuegos. It is pos
slble that each province will be desig-
mated as a district.

A Young Woman Found Dead In Bath.

CINCINNATI, o., Nov. 6.-At 6 O'Clock
this morning Frank H. Woodrow, a
prominent stationer. hurriedly summon
ed DR.. f. Drumming, to Flat No. In the
Alta building. at Fourth and Sycamore
streets. The doctor was shown the dead
body Of a woman In a bathtub full of
water. DR.. Drumming said 1t was case
of drowning. Mr.. Woodrow, In whose
fiat Il occurred, notified the coroner.
1t has been ascertalned that the girls
name was Mamie Eversllgh, formerly Of
Ironton, Ohio. She and Mrs, Josie Ger
old, O widow, came there together last
night. They became companions for the
night OF Boyd Vessel and Frank H.
Woud respectively. Miss Eversligh
and Body Vessel had been living to-
gether at la2 West Seventh street for n
year under the name Of Boyd Garfield
and Mamie Garfield. Mrs, Gerold is
well connected here. It was intended to
be secret meeting In Mr.. WoOdrow's
fiat, with no thought Of tragedy ur eX-
posure. Boyd Wessel - the son OF
highly respected business man In this
city. and Mr.. Woodrow's family connec-
tons are Of the highest respectnblllty.
None Of the three survivors of last
nights orgies can or Will give any ac-
count Of Miss Eversligh's leaving the
bed and going to the bath room.
Mr.. Woodrow made the discovery
when he went TO take his morning bath.
All this all three OF the parties admit,
The police believe much OF the night
was spent In drinking wine and that few
n any OF the four were In a condition to
know what they were doing. Both
young men are under parole arrest and
surveillance, pending an examination to
ascertain the cause OF the brnlse on the
dead Glrl's temple. None Of the Survl
vors have made any attempt to conceal
the facts or IT, escape, though they left
no stone unturned to prevent publicity.
The present opinion Is that II is A case
OF suicide or accidental drowning.
