STATE BOARD OF ELECTIONS.
Kentucky Republicans Saw Taylor
Should Fill Vacancies,

Frankfort KY, Dee. 26.-Questions
concerning the makeup of the State
Board of Election Commissioners may be
brought before the Courts before the conn
missioners sit as contest board to pass
Hpn the claims made by the Democratic
candidates for the State offices below
that Of Lieutenant Governor which are
now held by Republicans. THE point of
contention is the procedure to be follow
ed in filing the vacances caused by the
recent resignation of Commissioners
Pryor and Ellis. The Democrats have
construed the law to provide that such
vacancies are to be filed by the remain
ing members Of the board and ON this
theory Judge John II. Fulton was ap-
pointed to fiji one of the vacancies. Com
missioners Poyntz and Fulton are TO
meet here Thursday to select the third
member of the board The Republicans
now make the assertion that these va
cancies should be filled by appointment of
General Taylor. 1t is said the Governor
will make nominations to fill the vacan-
cies and that the question will then be
taken into the courts.

misquoted / expect to make several
speeches in the East, but | expect TO

other questions. There are three ques-
tions before the people, to-wit: The
money question:, the trust question, and
the Philippine question. Whenever I
make political speech / discuss all
three questions"
Mr.. Bryan will leave here Saturday

the Post from Norfolk, Va, says:
''The big Johnson Line steamer Moran
more arrived here this afternoon light
from Liverpool after one of the most
tempestuous passages ON record. Captain
Richardson, her commander reported
having seen an unknown bark founder at

rapmore which flies the Belgian flag, is
of 1850 tons register. She sailed from
Liverpool for Norfolk, December 18th,
and being nearly a week overdue her
agents were anxious about her. The
hurricane which swept TINS coast SatuF-
day struck the Noranmore at sea at
night. The waves rolled over her al
most continuously and would, Captain
Richardson says, have swamped an or
dinary ship. Soon after the storm arose
the Noranmore overhauled strange
bark which was on the point of founder
ing Only the stump of one mast still
stood, others having been cut or car
ried away. Several lights were burning
aboard her and II men, believed from
their gestures to be foreigners. were seen
running about the decks, which were
awash. A boats crew, in one of the
Noranmore's boats, was put over the side
and the men pulled for the bark. The
boat was swamped almost immediately.
The men, who wore life jackets. were
picked mp by a second boat which was,
however. compelled to return to the No
ranmore. While the rescue of these men
was being effected the bark disappeared
in the darkness, and Captain Richardson
says that beyond doubt she and her crew
went down.
Search made after day broke revealed
mo sign of her. The Noranmore's steel
bow was STAYED in, two blades of her
propeller We're lost, but She managed to
reach this port without the loss Of
