Dick on The ToI

bstia on tht lobtsSa ma very in
teresting story concerning the Hon.
Charles F ". Dick is being quietly whis-
pered around at present. To state it brief
ly and badly. it is TO the effect that that
eminent statesman has been placed on the
tcboggan by the Hannaites. His transfer
from the Secretaryship Of the Republican
National Committee 10 the Craftsmanship
of the Ohio state Committee was made. as
is well known. by Mr. Hanna at the di-
rect request of Mr. Mckinley. AS things
50. his was a step downward for Dick
he immediate cause Of il is said 10 be the
Presidents fear that something might be
printed in the papers about the unusual
influence welded by General Dick in va
TiOuS contests al the Philadelphia COnven-
ton, and also the large and lucrative de-
partment praCIi-e which his Washington
law firm has accumulated. The General is
now eliminated from national politics in
that he is no longer officially connected
with the national organization Of the par
ty, though OF course he will retain his seat
in Congress for at least another term
After that however, there is said to be no
telling what Will happen to him. The For
akerites don't like him bit, and they are
going to have something 70 do with the
redistricting of Ohio by the next Legisla-
ture. If Summit county should be remov-
I'd from the Nineteenth district, where it
really does not belong. General Dick will
be where he wants the flag to be in the
Orient-high in the air. But this is an
other story, and probably will be developed
in its own good time.

For Passengers of Overdue Steamer
Mebraska-steamed in Safe, After a
Stormy. Voyage. 81
z NEW YORK, Dec. 26.--It was more
than a merry Christmas for the ITO
passengers on the belateds Allen State
liner. State Of Nebraska. Nineteen
days out from the Clyde. eight days
overdue, the Nebraska crept into port
here with smashed llfeboats, demolish-
ed light houses and broken and twist
ed rails. ss3
1t was the first clear day the voyag-'
ers hnd seen since December :, when
the Nebraska steamed out Of Neville,
Ireland, in the face OF h gale that
swept her decks. Rs n.
On board the Allan State liner when
she left Glasgow on December 6,..were
ten saloon, thirty second cabin and
seventy steerage passengers. officers
and passengers declared the wreckage
on deck gave but n faint idea Of the
horrors OF the voyage. Three times the
machinery broke down and the vessel
had to be hove to.
: The only. one OF the crew injured in
the long voyage, was William Thomp-
son, fireman, who was hurled against
the deck rails and had two ribs frac-
tured.,
Captain David Ingram, OF Vancouver,
who has circlcd the globe twice. was
one OF the passengers He said that
three times the. voyagers felt that all
hope was gone. Not meal could be
served in the saloon during the voyage.

pany shares have not dropped very
much. for the same reason. , %
The giant share OF Dom Paurs mo-
ney will, however be diverted to a
much more disturbing and insldious
purpose. While Mr.! Kruger remains se-
questered at one or other. chateau In
Holland or Belgium his agents and
propagandists will be active. In; the cap
itals to embitter continental opinion, al
ready acutelyt'Anglophobe in France.
The plan is to conduct aipersIstent agl-:
tation against England s%ith d view,
to securing eventually "een viii szufd,
Afrlka," and the RESTORATION, OF indie.
pendenceto the Transvaal and Orange
River Colony. This scheme Is to be set
on foot by replacing the Mauserr by; tie
mugwump. and by, newspaper-m
Ing pamphleteerlng, all these processes
to be financed with the spolIated gold Of
the uitlanders. 4,
Holland Not Eager for Trouble.
The people Of Holland, according to an
Amsterdam correspondent, will scarcely
lend themselves to the pre- conceived
campaign. They rather hope Dom
Paurs money will be devoted to assist
Ing the Transvaalers swarming there,
who have now to be sheltered and fed
by phllanthroplc townsmen, back to
their homes in South Africa. But the
last thing they would wish for would
be to embroll themselves with England,
Or their ministers with an anti-Engiish
policy. .G
X 1t is understood over there that
Queen Wilhelmlna only assented to the
BENDING OF the war-vessel to Kruger
after securing the approval OF the 9TH
er powers and the indulgence OF Great
Britain. The act was forced upon her
FIRST minister. who was rapidly waning
in popularity among number Of
frothy irresponslbles In the Staten Gen.
eraal. and os such It was merely the
act Of On opportunist. Men and bodies
Of influence In Holland are, however,
not going to court commercial, IL not
political, disaster by wantonly noutIng
English susceptibilIties.
In any case. DR.. Leyds has been CIV
en- to understand that Holland is not to
be compromised into "excesses of SYM
patty" and that Mr.. Kruger will re-
ceiye neither royal nor official recognl-
ton as president or ex7president of the
Transvaal, even though the melodra-
mates of an exuberant populace can
not be represscd, and are passlvely ap-
proved. =.
