.M'GREARY ELECTED
KENTUCKY SENDS THE MADISON
COUNTY. STATESMAN TO Sue
CEED DEBOE
EASILY DEFEATED CANTRILL
Caucus Was Harmonious in Every
Respect-NeVv Senator Has Been
tft Often HOnOred by Hue
Grass State.

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. 9.-Standing
in the rostrum of the old hall Of rep
resentatives of the Kentucky capital,
where nearly thirty years ago he began
his public career, James B. McCreary,
of Madison county, tonight accepted the
nomination of the Democratic party to
succeed William J. DebOe in the senate
of the United States.
He received the nomination by a vote
of 62 to 81 over Circuit Judge James e.
Cantrill, of Scott county, nearly two
thirds of the Democratic members. He
will be elected by the geneSal assembly
in joint session on Tuesday of next week
over Senator Deboe who was Endorsed by
his party for reelection.
The Democratic caucus tonight was
harmonious throughout, the only surprise
being that sprung several hours before
it convened by the withdrawal of Con-
gresham Charles K. Wheeler and Con-
gresham David H. Smith. who have
been in the contest for the past year.
They withdrew only when it became APP
parent that AIcCreary would be nomi-
mated, and Judge Cantrln remained in
the race only to receive complimentary
vote.
New Senator of Sturdy Type.
For forty years James B. McCreary
has been prominent IN hentucKyS MS
tory. He first came into notice in 1862,
when he assisted in raising the Eleventh
cavalry regiment for the Kentucky serv-
ice, c. S. A. In this regiment he was
subsequently made lieutenant colonel. a
rank he held at the close of the war.
He served with distinction in the Army
of the Tennessee under Gems. Morgan
and Bragg and under Breckenridge in
Virginia and surrendered with his regi-
ment at Appomattox.
He entered politics in 1866, being chosen
to represent Madison county in the Ken
lucky legislature. In 1875 he was elected
governor on the Democratic ticket. After
retiring from the executive Office he was
elected to congress six successive times.
Gov. AIcCreary was appointed by Presi-
dent Cleveland in 1892 one of the five
commissioners to represent the United
States in the international monetary con
EsTence. In that conference he distin-
euished himself as an advocate Of BIZ
metalliSm.

PRESIDENT RAMSEY. OF THE VA
BASH, ORDERS ANNUAL PASSES
~. ISSUED
OTHER ROADS FOLLOW SUIT
Claim That the Competition Of the
Ohio River Lines Makes the
Move an Absolute
Necessity.

The pass agreement, as far as the lines
in the Central Passenger association are
concerned, is thing of the past. All the
Eastern lines are now preparing to send
out their usual annual passes, although
it is reported that a great many who
heretofore have received the favors. have
been cut off.
The violation and practical destruction
Of the agreement is laid at the door Of
the Wabash. President Ramsey, of that
road, yesterday sent kilograms to the
presidents of other roads in the assoc1a-
ton stating that the competition of the
Ohio river lines compelled him to take
the step.
President Ramsey's announcement was
followed almost Immediately by state
ment to the same effect issued by Vice
President McRae, of the Pennsylvania
system, and now all the lines which were
in the agreement, will, it is understood.
issue the annual cards as heretofore
Officials Of all the roads admit that the
so-called Ohio river competition is re-
sponsible for the break, as the East and
West lines could not do a profitable bust
ness when intercepted at every point by
other roads which had a material advan-
tage in traffic, having their passes in
the hands of their travelling solicitors.

ROOT ON PHILIPPINES
ARMY IS STILL CONSIDERED NEG
ESsARY ASA MORAL FORCE. 3
IN THE ISLANDS
TOO MANY NATIVES ARE IDLE
spooner Amendment Prevents Iu-
vestment of Capital and the
Wheels of Industry Are
Not Moving.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9-Secretary
Root gave an interesting exposition of
the condition of affairs in the Philip
pines, together with the outlook for re-
placing military by civil rule, in the
course of a hearing today before the
house committee on military affairs in
connection with the army appropriation
bill. The meeting was behind closed
doors, and no exact statement of Mr..
Roots remarks was given out, although
the following is understood to embody
the more essential features.
Mr.. Hay. Of Virginia, asked as to
whether civil government could be main
tanned in the islands without the pres
ence of the army.
In reply Mr. Root stated that the army
was necessary as a moral force to main
tain the civil administration now estab-
lished. One of the main causes, he
said why there had not been more
progress in the Philippines was that the
Spooner amendment passed by congress
last year restricting the grant of fran
chses had the effect of preventing the in
vestment of capital and the consequent
employment of labor. Many people be-
came conspirators simply because they
were idle.
Had to Import Rice,
The secretary instanced the fact that,
although rice was one sof the main
products of the Philippines, yet about
S. GOO, 600 worth of rice had to be import
ed last year. In this and many other
branches the wheels of industry were not
moving, the people out of employment
were encouraged in viciouspess and as a
! result it was necessary to keep some
| 10000 troops in the islands,
In some provinces a. very satisfactory
civil administration had been set up. But
Mr.. Root pointed out that even in prov
| inces where civil government had been a
success, there were men conspirfng to
assist in the agitation and warfare ear
| ried on in neighbOring. provinces. The
+ secretary expressed the belief that il
congress enacted the bill proposed. by
/ Senator Lodge, or that of Representative
/ Cooper, of Wisconsin, providing sys-
TENS of laws for the Philippines, it
would be possible soon thereafter to
reduce the military establishment in the
Philippines.
Simply Trustees in Cuba.
The situation in Cuba was discussed
only briefly, as Mr.. Root remarked
that we were simply trustees there
whereas, our interest in the Philippines
was much more definite and extended
particularly over the large sweep Of pub
lie lands.
Mr. Root also stated during the hear
ing that it was the expectation of the
war department to do away with the
army transport service, so that the
transportation. of troops thereafter would
be carried on by private concerns.
Some question had been raised by mem
bers of the committee as to the pro.
priety of an item in the bill of 81, 000, 00
| for emergency expenses of the war de-
partment The secretary said thi:
amount was unnecessary, and had beer
estimated through oversight, so thai
the committee doubtless will omit this
emergency fund from the bill.

The unfortunate man was Edward Gun
