formed that Gen. Jose Miguel Gomez,

MAJORITY WILL BE CLOSE TO 20, 1000.

Chairman Chapman OF the Republican
State Committee Reviews the Situation
and Makes an Estimate.
Thad NJ. Chapman, chairman of the Re
publican state committee, gave out the
following statement Monday:
Every county in the state will show a
majority for the Republican state ticket
on the evening of Sept. 4. Rutland coun-
ty, the home of Mr. Clement, will give
to the Republican ticket a gratifying
majority. Rutland city will be Repub-
lican. A tidal wave has set in and it is
growing in volume each succeeding day.
Lamoille county, claimed as a strong
fusion county two weeks ago, will give
Republican majority OF over 1000.
Washington county the home of c. Her
bert Pape, Democratic independent can
didate for lieutenant governor, will be
Republican by a majority that is grow
ing larger every day. Even Bennington

/ am not prepared to state positively
what the Republican majority in the state
will be, but a close and conservative es-
Innate places the figures close to 20, 00O

Terrible Earthquake Disaster In chill.

Terrible Earthquake Disaster In Chill.
The disaster at San Francisco was re-
peated in a smaller degree on Thursday
when the city of Valparaiso, a fortified
seaport of Chill and the most important
commercial centre of the western coast of
South America, was destroyed by earth
quake and the fires which followed. VAL
paradise had a population Of about $50, 900.
1t is situated on a large bay of the Pa
cihc ocean, rs miles northwest Of Santi-
ago, the leading city Of the country,
which has a population of 100000.
The first reports indicated 1000 fatalities
and a property loss of $3.50, OOO, 900, but
later reports state that the damage will
probably not exceed $7O,OOO,OOO Three
hundred people are dead and over 800
wounded In Valparaiso alone. Great dam
age and loss Of life resulted in cities and
towns nearby and at Santiago many pub
lie buildings were wrecked 30 people
killed and 100 injured.
The shocks came suddenly the two at
first being heavier than those that fol-
lowed, and many of the buildings went
down like card structures. The shocks
have continued at intervals every day
since Thursday. as many as 50 being re-
ported within "a hours. The people have
fed to the open spaces. where they are
living outdoor. There is great suffering
and restitution among the homeless. One
report stated that a city of 10000 popu-
lation had disappeared, but this is not
generally believed. Another statement is
to the effect that the island OF Juan Fer
nandez, or the Gillian coast, has dropped
out Of sight This is the island made
famous by DeFoe as the scene OF Robin
son Cruesoe.

Senator Lamb, the Independent
member from Lucas county, Ia evi-
dently made out of the right kind
of goods. He is chairman of the
committee on railroads in the senate
and yesterday he was attacked by
Henry Apthorp, one Of the lobbyists
for the railroad corporations who are
trying to prevent the passage of a
two cent railroad fare bin. The sen
ator says: 1t is the first time /
ever met a real lobbyist although /
have heard of them before. | was In
troduced to Moses Somebody or
Other, who asked me why the rail-
roads were not permitted to appear
before the committee and discuss the
two cent bill before the report was
agreed upon. Because you didn't
ask for a hearing | told him. Pres
emily / met Henry Anthorp who says
that he Is in the constructing de.
partment of the Lake Shore. Now |
was employed by the Lake Shore
myself in that department and asked
him about certain improvements, Off
c.als and so forth and discovered that
he didn't know anything about them
and here's where / discovered that
he was a lobbyist. said to him,
You might just as well go home. The
people want two cent fare and l anu
going TO help them to get it. He
commit the bill and give the railroad
representatives hearing. Not lin
o thousand years, told him, and Ia
anybody makes such a motion on the
floor of the senate / shall vote against
it." This two cent tare question has
been discussed for twenty years ana
there is no use of evadIng the issue
any longer AS soon as the people
throughout the state learn to do what
the voters of Lucas county have learn
ed to do, to vote for good men ire
spective of party, just SO soon will
they secure representatives such as
Senator Lamb. The public is fast

GEN, WHEELER DEAD|
HE WAS A BRAVE FIGHTER uN-
DER TWO FLAGS
Was Lieutenant General Of the Con.
federate Army, and Ended Mill
tary Career as Brieadier
General, U. 8. A.

New York. Jan. 25.--Brigadier Gencr-
al Joseph ii. Wheeler, U. s. A., re
tired, former major general OF cav
airy, c. s. A., died at the home of his
sister, Mrs. Sterling Smith, in Brook
lyn, at 5:35 this afternoon after an
Illness of pneumonia lasting but three
days. He was taken i'll with pleurisy
one week ago and pneumonia devel-
ored McnGay night.
General Wheeler had been In the best
Of health for some months past but
caught cold a week ago and pleurisy
soon developed.
There was an early rally this morn
Ing and for time hope was revived
only to give way to apprehension as
the afternoon drew to close. The
end was most peaceful and the aged
veteran sank slowly into unconscious
ness surrounded by his loved ones.
He retained his faculties almost to
the last and though too weak to speak
he indicated by his manner that he
recognized those about him.
Arrangements for the funeral will
be made tomorrow.
General Wheeler was over 90 years
old, having been born at Augusta, Ca,
Sept. 10, 1896. He was graduated
from West Point in 1859 and was a
second lieutenant in the United
States cavalry from 1859 to 1861. When
the war of the rebellion broke out he
cast his fortunes with the South and
became a first lieutenant in the Con-
federate artillery. He rose rapidly to
the positions of Colonel of Infantry;
Brigadier General of Cavalry; Major
General and Corps Commander. and
Lieutenant General.
