NEW YORK.

New York, Nov. 9.-Theodore
Roosevelt's plurality in this, his ma
tive state, is second only to McKin-
iey's in 1900 by about Al 800. The
late returns show that there were cast
for him in New York state about 1885,
900 votes more than for Parker. Not
only was his vote heavy in the coun-
try districts where the republican
strongholds are, but in Greater New
York. traditionally democratic, he
ran much closer to Judge Parker than
had been expected, even by his own
campaign managers. 1t had been esti-
mated that he would come down to
the Bronx with better than 100000
plurality, but the figures last night
showed that this forecast would be ex-
ceeded by approximately $4,000. In
the city Parker's supporters had ex-
pressed the hope that their candidate
would have from 100000 to 100000
more than Roosevelt, but in this they
were disappointed by more than 100,.
900 votes.
There was a great surprise in the
proportions of the vote for Higgins,
republican, for governor, he running
far ahead of the Odell vote in the
counties and winning by about $4,000,
His plurality above the Bronx was
probably 100000, while Herrick's In
Greater New York aggregated about
$4,000. Herrick did not carry AL.
bany, his home county, nor did Parker
carry Ulster. in which he lives.

PENN SYLVANIA.

Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-The republi-
cans have made an almost complete
sweep in Pennsylvania, carrying the
state for Roosevelt and Fairbanks by
over 100000 and electing % of the 26
state senators and 30 of the 30 con-
gressmen. They have also elected
about 175 of the 204 members of the
house of representatives. This gives
them control of both branches of the
legislature by n large majority, insur-
ing the election of Gov. Pennypacker's
appointee, Philander G. Knox, for
United States senator to succeed the
late NJ. S. Quay.
John P. Elkin, republican, is elected
state supreme court judge by ma
jority almost as great as that cast for
the republican national ticket.
The republicans have also carried
nearly all the judicial districts in
which elections were had for common
pleas judges and the five counties in
which associate judges were chosen.

VINDICAqION
FOR CASSAPT
IN THE MATTER OF INCREAS-
ING THE CAPITAL STOCK
OF PENNSYLVANIA.
FIFTY DIVIDENDS

FIFTY DIVIDENDS

A fnancier, in speaking of Presi-
dent Cassatt's administration of the
PENNSYLVANIA and the attacks which
have been made on the property by
hostile interests, says the bear raids
on Pennsylvania have about spent
their force, and the public is begin
ming to realize how unjustly to the
management the criticisms of its
policy in increasing its capital stock
have been. The Pennsylvania shows,
in spite of the adverse conditions of
the late winter, earnings of 9 1-2 per
cent on its entire capital stock, new
and old, and in spite of the fact of its
new capital has not of itself been
bringing in a cent of revenue beyond
a merely nominal banking increment.
If the great railroad system has in
given period declined, and under con-
ditions of the most unfavOrable char
acter been able to carry the burden
of an inactive capitalization Of fully
one-fourth its entire capital stock
there need be no uneasiness as to it's
position The truth is the business
of the railroad is growing so rapidly
that it is unable to handle it all. Its
history Of fifty consecutive years of
cash dividends has shown the wisdom
and conservatism of this policy, and
the present showing is a sufficient
refutation of the claims of the bears
and satisfactory. assurance to its
stockholders of the safety of this
policy as to the future When the
contemplated improvements are car
ried out the road will undoubtedly
show earnings of fully Is per cent.
of its entire capitalization.

CLAY TOWNSHIP
Commencement the Most Successful
Ever Held.

The commencement of Clay town.
ship schools was held at Greensboro
last Friday night under the direction
of Mr.. B. III. Linderman, township
trustee. There were two graduates
from the high school and eleven from
the common schools. The occasion
was one of the most enjoyable, the
NJ. f. church being filled to the doors.
President R. L. Kelly Of Earlham
made the class address. His address
lay along the lines of growth into the
intellectual life giving Lincoln, Glad
stone and Bismarck as beacon lights.
Supt. c. w. Jordan in delivering the
diplomas took occasion to give the
class much wise counsel. The music
for the occasion was supplied by the
Earlham Quartette and their efforts
were thoroughly appreciated. Mr.
Linderman, the trustee, is being con-
graduated on all sides this morning
for his successful management of
this commencement which is thought
to be the most pleasant and profta-
BILE one ever held in the township.

BAKER AND FRAZIER TAKEN
SATURDAY NIGHT
NEAR ELkHORN MILLS
Brought to This City and Returned
.~~> to the Preble County Jail.

AS we stated Saturday three pris-
orers- broke out Of the Preble county
Jail at Eaton, o., and cut across the
country, making their escape good
for time at leastThey cut their way
out Of Jail through a two-foot wall
with a tool made from part of the
steam-heating fixtures. It was a very
clever trick and worked splendidly
and the reason that only three escap-
ed was because there were only three
in the Jail. Officers in Richmond and
elsewhere were notified of the escape
and advised to be on the lookout for
the prisoners. Search was made all
day by the local police, but the pris
oners did not come here. Late in the
evening they were captured near Elk
horn mills by the sheriff of Preble
county and his deputy and brought to
this city, where they boarded TIE in
terurban and We're taken to Eaton
and once more placed in durance vile.
Only Baker and Frazer were caught,
Dunlap being still at large.

a Palladium reporter asked of Mr..

"Civil service is getting on fne,'
said Mr.. Foulke, Gin fact it is better
cared for by far and lived up to by
President Roosevelt than by any of
his predecessors. He is a prince of
good fellows and treats everybody
alike. If any man in office goes
wrong the President is after him hot
footed, and does not stop to think
what party he belongs to. If he is
found guilty he is punished and
that's all there is to it,
"How do you like the President as
citizen,' we ventured to remark?
"He is certainly a splendid citizen

Winchester, Ind, April 23.-Last
nights primary high school oratori-
cal contest was signalized by the kid
naping of a senior by several as yet
unknown persons. John Macy, son
of Judge Macy, as president of the
oratorical association, was on the pro-
gram for an address of welcome. Ear
ly in the evening he was on his way to
church in company with Chauncey
Canaday, son of Silas Canaday, and
when near the church was waylaid by
five or six men in disguise. He was
taken in charge by the party, hustled
into a closed carriage and driven out
of town to lonesome place known as
the Kent Brown woods, because it
was there that Kent Brown. a color
ed barber. was murdered, and, there
kept until alomst o'clock. During
the whole time the party had him in
charge they conversed in whispers
and kept their identity concealed.
Young Canada was bound and gagged
and aclose watch kept over him until
the party escaped with Macy, when
he was permitted to proceed to the
contest. Later in the night Macy
was returned to the outskirts of the
town and given his liberty, but too
late for him to attend the contest.
