be not less than 25,000
Mayor Jones, the nonpartisan candi-
date, comedies his defeat, but says that
IL his work has contributed to the over
throw of Imperialism he is well satisfied.
Nash carried his home county, Frank
lin, by 1,5O0, a net gain of $500
Mclean, Democratic candidate for
governor, carried Hamilton county (Cin-
cinnatD by about 1000. The entire fu-
sion county ticket, composed of Demo
Gratis and independent Republicans, has
been elected by widely varying majori-
ties. The fusion ticket is composed
mainly of Democrats, the share Of indie
pendent Republicans consisting Of minor
local Offices and half the legislative tick
et The fusion victory is great blow to
George B. Cox, who for more than a
decade has ruled the Republican organ
isation in Hamilton county.
The local campaign was simply ques-
tion of Cox OF anti-Cox and the antis,
through an alliance with the Democrats
have won.
Mayor Jones late last night said:
THE result of the election is extremely
gratifying to NE, as it must be to every
lover of liberty. The vote for the non
partisan idea is large enough to justify
the claim that the cause has won the
greatest victory ever recorded in the po-
litical history of the state.
Il believe the moral force will lend
the legislature to pass the municipal code
commission bill, which provides that ev-
cry municipal officer in Ohio shall be
elected by the nonpartsan plan, doing
away entirely with political parties in all
our cities. Furthermore, the vote for
the nonpartisan idea will have its influ-
ence in shaping national issues next year.
There will be more of morals in the ma
tional platforms by the reason of it.
81 am thankful that the nonpartisan
vote in Ohio may be recorded as favor
ing Christian policy toward the Philip
pines"

BOERS ATTACK MAFEklNG,
Finding Bombardment Futile, They
Make a Vain Assault.

Finding BombardmentF Futile, They
Make a Vain Assault.
London, Nov. S.-The following has
been received by The Daily Mail from
its war correspondent at Mafeking, un-
der date of Oct. 26, via dispatch rider to
kuruman and by runners to Orange
river:
THE Beers have bombarded the town
for several days past with FIVE pound
ers. one 10 FOUNDER, two Krupp II
Founders and one Krupp "a FOUNDER.
Three hundred shells were fired in
the course of 36 hours. We had four
men only wounded. The damage to the
town was inconsiderable.
"The bombardment was so futile it
was becoming q joke, when on Oct. %
the object Of it was seen. Having in
dulged in the preliminary artillery fire,
the Beers closed in upon all sides and
made determined attempt to rush the
town. This attempt at storming brought
out every single man of ours who could
carry weapon. 1t was indeed mag
nificent sight to see how the little gar
rison turned out to meet the numerical
ly overwhelming foe.
There was fearful rife fire, and the
Maxims sent a hurricane of shot right in
the teeth of the Beers, who wnvered,
broke and stampeded in mad panic.
They were driven over mines, which
exploded, scattering them in all direc-
tions. They must undoubtedly have suf-
fered great loss. They were completely
driven off"

NEW JERSEY REPUBLICAN,
Senate stands as II Did and Repub-
Iicans Gain Seven AssembIymen


Trenton, Nov. S.-The latest figures
from Mercer county show that the Re-
publicans have swept the county by
about 4,500 plurality. The city of Tren-
ton gives 2,543 for the ticket the Demo-
Gratis carrying but one of the 13 wards.
Last year Governor Voorhees, got but
1900 plurality in the county. Returns
from other counties indicate that the Re-
publicans have elected senators in seven
of the eight. They will vote for n sue
cessor to Senator Sewell in 1901. The
Republican senators are elected in Sa-
lem, Gloucester, Camden, Monmouth,
Somersa. Essex and Union The Demo
Gratis elected ex-Congressman Johnston
Cornish as senator from Warren county.
The next senate will stand IA Repub-
licans and seven Democrats the same as
last year.
The house of assembly will be COM
n d of "A Republicans and 16 Demo
IS, Republican gain of seven over
last year The gain comes from three in
MlddleseN, one in Salem and three in
Monmouth county. The Democrats elect
assemblymen only in the counties of
Hudson, Hunterdon and Warren. Coun-
ty officers were elected in II of the coun-
ties, and the Republicans were generally
successful excepting in the strong Re
publican county of Cumberland, where n
faction fight resulted in the defeat of the
Republican candidate for county clerk
Camden will give nearly 5000 plurality
for the Republicans, and the usually
strong Democratic county of Middlesex
goes Republican by pluralities ranging
from 500 to 1900.

VICTORY FOR CORNELL,
Columbia Defeated at Football by
20 to D.

20 to o.
New York, Nov. S.-The football war
riors Of Columbia, who gained sudden
fame by defeating Yale not long ago,
tackled Cornell at Manhattan field yes
terday afternoon. Instead of victory,
which was so confidently expected, de-
feat, overwhelming defeat, was the un-
palatabe dose that Columbia was COM
PEELED to swallow as a, result of their
gridiron conflict with the strapping
young fellows from the Ithaca university.
The score of the game was 30 to o.
Gifted with a more extensive knowl-
edge Of football, apparently than their
opponents, the Comedians were bigger,
brawnier and speedier in every way.
There was some resemblance between
Cornelfs game yesterday and Harvard's
game last Saturday. Cornell used excel
lent generalship and wasted little energy
in useless line bucking-as Columbia did.
But by punting, rendered effective by the
fine work and deadly tackling of her
ends, and as brilliant an exhibition of
open play as ever was seen on a gridiron,
Cornell completely smothered and non
plussed the Columbia men. The delayed
pass, great interference and running in a
pioheu ueiu were inaHeuSefS tnat played
a conspicuous part in Columbia's Water
loo.
In tackling condition, team work, end
running, generalship. clean handling-ev-
erything with the exception of line buck
ing-Cornell excelled.
Columbia's line, strong though it was
rated to be, was entirely outplayed by
Cornelps line. This fact, together with
Cornells greater variety of offensive tao
tics and Columbias mufflng and fun
bling explains in brief Cornell's victory
victory that was SO thorough and one
sided that it almost dazed the Columbia

SAMOAN CLAIMS,
Treaty Providing For Arbitration
Signed.

Washington, Nov. S.-Haying disposed
of the question of the adjustment of
claims arising out of the bombardment of
Mataafan rebels in Samoa, the three gov
ernments signatory to the Berlin treaty
are now devoting their attention to the
proposition to partition the islands.
The claims treaty was signed Mt the
state department by Secretary Hay on
the part of the United States, Mr.. Regi-
nald Tower, British charge d'affaires, on
the part of Great Britain, and Herr
Mumm Won Schwarzenstein ON the part
of Germany.
King Oscar of Sweden is selected as ar
bitrator.
The important article of the treaty
provides that the arbitrator shall consid-
er the facts leading up to the lombard
ment, and if he should determine that the
bombardment was unjustifable then he
shall award damages against the nations
Great Britain and the United States
whose men-of war shelled the native vii
lagos. The treaty is so worded that it is
open to the Interpretation that the award
shall be made, il the bombardment were
facts leading up thereto. against the
powers whose representatives brought
about the conditions which necessitated
the use of force, and in this event Ger
many will have to pay the score. The au-
thorities are satisfied that the arbitrator
will find that the bombardment was JUS
tilted, in which event Germany will set
tie the claims.

Republican Gnins In IOyya.

Des Moines, Nov. 8. At 80 this
morning 63S precincts of the 2,0S2 in the
state gave Shaw Rep,), for governor,
91,593; White Dem.), 67,565. The same
precincts two years ago gave Shaw &c.
565; White. 1892. This is net Re
publican gain of 1858, or about IA to the
precinct. The same ratio, if kept up for
the state, will give Republican plurali-
ty of about 10000. There are few Re
publican gains in the legislature, and the
indications are the Republicans will have
115 of the 150 members.
