III their hiding places by the order of
General Crairoto while governor of this
State, and that the latter was Matching
revolution which had for It's ouject the
overthrow of the present national govern
ment and the placing of himself in the
chief eA ecutive's chair.
About the middle of last Septemb be-
President Diaz became cogniZant of this
plot and summoned Governor Crairoto to
the city of Mexico on the pretext that he
wanted to confer with him on certain i'm
portaut matters. Governor CraiIoto
obeyed the summons, and immediately
upon his arrival he was placed under po-
LICE surveillance. and bas been virtually
a prisoner of the government ever since.
He was removed from Office by President
Diaz, and is now to he tried Ivy a mill.

SO offensive to all foreigners who came to

OHIO REPUBLICANS.
Feeling is Very Bitter Between the Fac,
tons

Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 15.-.The pros
poets for lively six months in Ohio pol
tiles are remarkably good. Mayor Nc
kisson said to-day that the election of
Hanna, the events of the recent contest
Mt Columbus aud the continuation CT the
warfare on tie leaders of the Hanna on
position meant widespread division in
the Republican party. On the other
hand the HanHaites are determined to
drive the anti Hannaites out of the party.
Tue first step was the request of the
Tippecanoe Club that the anti Hanna
leaders who are members of that club
resign. The next step will be taken at
Colum bus, when an attempt will be
made TO reorganize the house of represen-
tatives, ousting Mason and electing
Charles A. Leland, of Noble county,
speaker.
BoNwell. the original Hanna candidate
for speaker, has been dropped. and Lee
land substituted. Fifty four Republicans
are ready to vote for the reorganization.
Only one more vote is necessary. If this
is secured the State will probably have
two houses of representatives, AS the Ma
son organization will not give w.
Senator Vernon II. Burke, chairman
of the bribery investigating committee,
says that the investigation will be vgor-
ously pushed. The general opinion of
men in the Hanna confidence ia that
f.shelby, city. treasurer of Cincinnati,
who was member of Hanna's personal
committee, will he the next chairman of
the Republican State committee Sena-
Tor Hanna regards him as the prince of
politicians.

Cuban lady at the Academy OF the WISH
tation, and was joyfully received by her.

est kind OF surprise to her, for, al
though she was aware that there was
movement on foot last week for the lib.
