"REPUBLICAN BY 10000"
BrOmweIPs Prediction
Regarding Ohio.

Representative Cromwell Of Ohio was at
the Treasury Department today, having
come on here from Cincinnati to attend to
some departmental and legal matters. Re
ferring to the political contest in Ohio Mr..
Bromwell, whose home is in Cincinnati,
said: The republicans will carry the state
by from 10000 to $1,000. l do not have
the slightest fear as 10 the result. Mayor
Jones will poll about $1,000 and more of
these will be democrats than republicans.
The fusion republicans of Hamilton county
are going to support Nash, and that will
give the county to the republican ticket
The democrats better organized than
they have been in years, but this will be
of no use to them in the face of the peo-
pies desire that the present prosperous
conditions be continued.
No there will be detection among
the republican Germans owing to dissat-
isfactiOn with the foreign policy of the ad-
ministration. / have recently made speech
es to a number of German organizations,
and | say that they are still with
President Mckinley. Whenever | talked
about whipping the FilipinOs and restoring
peace the Germans gave their approval in
many ways. AS matter of fact the Ger
mans will prefer prosperity and satisfac-
ton. with the Philippines thrown in, TO
depression and lack of confidence without
the Philippines. | came over yesterday with
4 German business man who has always
been a democrat, but voted for Mckinley
three years ago. He said he preferred good
times and would vote the republican ticket"

ADVERSE TO HIS CLAIM.
Roy l.. Quackenbush VIII Not Receive
His Extra Pay.

r. ]. TraceweH the controller Of the
treasury. has approved the action of the
auditor for the War Department in dis
allowing the claim for extra pay of Roy L.
Quackenbush, who was first sergeant of
Company b, LIST District of Columbia Vol
unteers, in the Spanish war.
The auditor states that Quackenbush was
discharged September +, 1898, on his own
application and that of his family physi-
clan, because of illness in his family.
Having been discharged for his own con-
venience," he is not entitled to extra pay.
Quackenpush appealed from the action
saying that because his wife became i'll.
after he had gone through the campaign in
Cube, was no fault of his and that the
court would term it Judgment of God"
He also contends that If his services had
been needed the War Department would
not have granted his application for dis
charge. which was filed al least a month
before it vas granted. The discharge was
not granted until Mr. Quackenbushs family
physician went 10 the War Department and
made an appeal. BY this time the regi-
IneHt had returned from Cuba and was at
MUntaUk Point. Eight days after his dis
charge his re giuent received orders to be
mustered out, all of those who remained
receiving two months furlOugh. Quacken-
bush did not receive this furlough, of
course. and claimed two months extra pay.
Under the decision of the controller, Quack-
enDush will not receive his claim.
