ernor's action in sending them back again
with the suggestion that they be with

SO far as he was concerned, he said he
had hoped to go before the people in order
to determine whether the ''new-fangied"
doctrines of his colleague were approved
by them or not. but the withdrawal of the
resignation by Mr.. McLaurin made It i'm
possible for him to test the view of the
people on these subjects.
He said that he had hunted the records
and found that In 125 years something
like 200 senators had rendered their resig-
nations: that he found no case except that
Of MI McLaurins In which the RESIGNATION
had been withdrawn.
Mr. McLaurin arose simply to say that
he had not intended to have anything per-
sonal in his remarks. but II his colleague
had accepted them, finding the can fitted
him. he was wholly willing that he should
do so. 1900.

Columbus, Aprl, 11.-General Dick
of Akron, who came to Columbus on
Wednesday, plans to hold conference
with State Auditor Guilbert today rela.
tive to the payment of the hotel bill
contracted by the Fourth regiment of
the National Guard at the time Of the
riot in Akron last summer. The pro-
entertained the soldiers, and Mayor
Young, are with him and some agree
ment will probably be reached The
State officials take the position that
the landlords charge is excessive.
a number of prominent Republican
politicians met by chance in this city
yesterday and there were rumors of
an important conference for the pur.
pose of discussing the subject of the
State ticket this fall.
Lieutenant Governor Caldwell today
declined to state whether or not he
will be n candidate for denomination.
1t is believed, however, that in view
of the opposition of the Anti-Saloon
League, he will not allow his name to
be presented to the convention this
summer. Hon, A. G.. Reynolds, of
Painesvillc, speaker of the House of
representatives who argued a case
before the Supreme Court yesterday
says that he is candidate to succeed
Caldwell only in the receptive sense.
He will accept the nomination il it
falls to him, but will make no effort
lie says, to secure 1t.
State Senator Sieber, of Akron, and
former Lieutenant Governor Jonesa
of Youngstown, are among the other
leading Republicans who spent yes
terday in Columbus. Mr.. Sieber,
while he acknowledges that the Anti
Saloon League is making a very hard
fight against him, says that he ex-
poets to be renominated and reelected
to the Senate.

Columbus, o.. April 11.-(Spl)-As a
result of several conferences today
between Charles w. Dick, Coy. Nash
and other Republican leaders, several
matters of interest to Ohio Republi-
cans were settled in advance of the
next State convention. The renomina-
tion of Gov, Nash has been a foregone
conclusion. 1t was definitely settled
tonight that Lieutenant Governor Cald-
we'll will be dropped from the ticket
because of his too close connection
with the liquor interests. II. A. Min
shall, Judge of the Supreme Court,
will be dropped because he is no longer
politically useful, and is moreover n
strong Foraker man. Judge Crew of
McConnelsville, will be nominated in
his place The powers favor the nom-

Court, Of A. r. Critchtield of Woos-
ter, but he will have active opposition
Attorney General Sheets will not be
opposed for denomination by Hanna

and they will look kindly upon any
attempt to dethronc him, especially
if it be successful. The date of the
convention will be fixed for some
date early in June. Dick will be
made chairman, but John r. Malloy,
who has for years been secretary of
the EXecutice committee, will be re,
placed by some one else John ]. Sulli-
