The War Department gave Col. Bry-
an and Gov. Holcomb more than they
expected when it requested the latter
to decide whether the regiment of Ne
braska volunteers, now at Manila, or
that commanded by Col. Bryan, shall
be mustered out OF the service. 1t was
a clear case OF beating these two very
cute politicians at their own game.
They expected the War Department
to name the regiment TO be mustered
out and were prepared to charge in
justice no matter which was chosen.
Now they are bound to keep their
mouths closed, and Col. Bryan himself
must take the responsibility OF deciding
whether his regiment remains in ser
vice or is mustered out, as 1t is known
that he will dictate Gov. Holcomb's
decision.

Death of Mrs. Kavanagh.

The many friends of Mrs. Thomas
Kavanagh were panied to learn OF her
demise at the private hospital OF DIR.
Kirkley in Toledo, where she had gone
for the performance OF an operation in
the vain hope OF regaining her health.
She had bean gradually failing for the
past year and although the physician
offered but little encouragement the
operation seemed to afford the only
opportunity for life. To this she
cheerfully submitted in the hope that
she might be spared to her family.
The operation was successfully per-
formed and for two days the symptoms
were favorable, but in her weakened
condition she lacked the necessary
strength to tide over the severe shock
and gradually growing weaker, she
passed peacefully away at l O'Clock
Sunday morning.
Mrs. Kavapagh was born in Wyom-
ing county, New York, 80 years ago
last March. December 81, 1876, she
wac duleCo III luSo Wlbu L
Kavanagh, and came to Perrysburg
two years ago, where she has since re-
sided.
Besides numerous relatives she leaves
husband and three children to mourn
their loss-Claude, the eldest, living at
Lima, and two daughters, Nellie and
Kittie, residing at home.
Mrs. Kavanagh was an amiable
woman possessed OF many strong traits
OF character, kind and genial to all,
possessing the happy faculty of extract
ing and spreading around her all the
sunshine of her life. Her greatesS
efforts were conferred in her home,
where she was eyer known as a fond
wife and loving mother.
The manv friends of the family ex-
tend their warmest sympathy to the
bereavfd husband and children.
The beautiful casket was covered
with maSy floral offerings attestlng the
high esteem in which the deceased
was held.
The funeral services were conducted
at st. Rose de Lima church at 8 o'clock
Wednesday morning, Rev. G. H.
Reiken officiating. who paid glowing
tribute to the deceased. The remains
were inferred In the Catholic cemetery.
Among the relatives from distance
who attended the funeral were James
Kavanagh, Elkhart, Ind; John E.
Kayanagh, Chicago; Claude Kayauagh
and wife and Martin Moran, Lima;
Mrs. Whalen, Buffalo, and Charles
Gillespie and family and Peter Curtin
and wife OF Bowling Breen.

There is much gossip in political cir
cles concerning the comparative ease
with which Boss Croker downed Ex-
Senator Hill at the New York Demo-
cratic convention and compelled Hill
to accept Judge VanWyck as the party
candidate for Governor after he had
declared most positively that he would
not support any man from New York
City or Brooklyn for the nomination. 1t
is said that there was treachery among
those whom Hill had counted upon to
stand by him. No matter how he ac-
complished his purpose, there is no
doubt that Croker named the whole
State ticket and that he is now the boss
of the whole Democratic state outfit as
we'll as OF Tammany. Neither is there
any doubt that Croker's triumph has
added to the certainty of Col. Roose-
velt's election to the Governorship.

From almost every country comes an
increased demand for American goods
we are actually selling silks in
France. The following report from
the u. S. Consul at Athens, Greece,
which has just reached the Department
OF State, speaks for itself: "There can
not be the least doubt of the necessity
of direct line OF steamships between
the United States and Mediterranean
ports. There is wide field and large
profits for we'll managed line, and it
should be an American one flying the
stars and stripes, II possible. Many oil
the stores of Athens-all those that
keep imported articles-exhibit Amer
ican goods for sale as English goods,
they having been imported from Eng.
land. Nearly every mail brings letters
of inquiry to this consulate from mer-
chants and manufacturers of the United
States, all anxious to find a market
here for their products; for 1t is becom-
ing generally known that Greece i'm
ports nearly all kinds OF goods and
machinery. The English, German and
French transportation companies that
call here are doing very good busi-
ness; but the Greek importers want a
chance to get import. directly from
America, and thus save the profits OF
the middlemen."
