PLAN TO DUST oHIo's GOVERNOR
Republicans Hope Man Of Their Party
May Succeed Sick Democratic
Executive.

Columbus, May u. - Republican
state leaders are planning to oust Gov
ernor John N. Pattison (Democrat)
from office. Lieutenant Governor An
drew l.. Farris (Republican), in event
the plans succeed, would become gov
ernor.

that Governor Pattison Is physically
and mentally disqualified to perform
the duties incumbent upon him and
that by virtue of the state constitu-
tion the lieutenant governor should
assume the Office.
Cincinnati, May 70. - When Mrs.
Pattison was informed at Christ hos
pital, where the governor is, that there
was a movement to have her husband
ousted, she Indignantly declared:
1T is absolutely untrue that he did
not sign the appointment. | saw
him do it, and Dr. Holt was present.
Furthermore, his mind has been as
clear as bell at all times and he has
known what he was doing. Why, it's
absurd. The doctors will tell you that
he is doing splendidly."
DR.. oliver P. Holt, one of the at
tending physicians, positively refused
to discuss the case.

has been on his own initiative and the
result of his own thinking"

ALLOWANCE FOR THIRST.
Judge Refuses Divorce to Woman Who
Married Reformed Drunkard.

st. Louis, May 12.-When a woman
marries a reformed drunkard she
should know how much he thlrsts, ac-
cording to Judge Ryan, who refused a
divorce to Mrs. Lucy E. Blackwood
because she did not make enough al
lowance for the thirst of her husband,
Samuel G. Blackwood, in the exuber-
ance he felt following his marriage.
"The court does not believe wo-
man should marry a drunkard on the
theory she will reform him." said
Judge Ryan. But it does believe
that when a woman marries a man
who is, as she knows, a recently re-
formed drunkard, she should be more
tolerant of lapse than the plaintiff
has been, even if it was not due to any
fault of her own.

First Russian Parliament.

Without a single hitch and with
only a minor incident to mar the
memorable day, the Russian parlia-
ment was inaugurated last Thursday.
The weather was superb, and the state
management of the impressive cere-
mony at the Winter palace, where EN-
peror Nicholas, surrounded by cour-
tiers and all the pomp and panoply of
power, delivered the speech from the
throne to the members of the two
houses, was perfect. Such a spectacle
perhaps never before has been wit
messed on the earth's stage.
The message in reality was less a
throne speech than a greeting and re-
quired only three minutes for its de-
livery. Emperor Nicholas read SLOW
ly. The admirable and even cordial
tone of the sovereign in renewing his
pledges and asking the cooperation of
parliament for the regeneration of the
country was only negatively satisfac-
tory.
Courtiers and spectators other than
members of the national parliament
led the cheering, but the members
were ominously silent, expressing
neither approval nor disapproval.
What rankled most was the failure
of the emperor to mention amnesty,
and later, when the members assem-
bled in the Tauride palace away from
the spell of the throne room, many of
them were with difficulty restrained
from precipitating matters by offer.
Ing resolutions on the subject.
The Constitutional Democratic lead.
ers, however, who dominated every
thing, were anxious not to weaken the
reply which the lower house will pre-
pare to the speech from the throne, in
which issues with. the crown will be
Joined, and succeeded in staving off
premature action.

Bio Fire In Mining Town.

Pittsburg, May 12-Five business

burned yesterday at Suterville, min
ing town of $500 inhabitants, 20 miles
east of Pittsburg on the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad.
The fire spread so rapidly that for a
time 1t was feared the entire town
would be swept by the flames. Aid
was requested from this city, Connells-
vile and McKeesport, but before as
sistance arrived the fire was checked
by a bucket brigade.
The loss is estimated at from $780,
900 to $4,000.

Funerals Tied Up by Strike--verdict
In crapsey Heresy Case.
Senator Tillman of South Carolina,
who on Saturday made a statement
in the senate covering the details of
his and Senator Bailey's negotiations
through ex-senator Chandler with
President Roosevelt regarding the rate
bill has made public a portion
of a written statement made to him
by Mr.. Chandler of his various con.
ferences with the president on this
subject.
The portion given out by Mr. Till
man Is largely repetition of the first
part of his statement in the senate.
1t covers, however. that portion
where Mr.. Tillman had quoted Mr..
Chandler as saying that the president
had stated that he had come to com.
plete disagreement with the senator.
ial lawyers who were trying to defeat
or injure the bill, naming Messrs.
Knox, Spooner and Foraker, regard.
ing which statement Mr.. Lodge subse'
quently said he was authorized to say
from the White House that 1t was an
unqualified falsehood.
The statement given out by Mr.. Till.
man is introduced as follows:
Senator Tillman said today that
on Saturday, May 5, he insisted on
having from ex-senator Chandler
written statement of the various con-
ferences by the latter in connection
with the plan of the president to con.
troll the railroad rate legislation by al
lance with the Democrats in the SEN
ate, and Mr.. Chandler gave him such
statement made prior to Saturday
May II, and signed by Mr.. Chandler"
Mr.. Chandler had been urged by
some of his friends to make public
statement over his own signature re.
garding the denial by Senator Lodge
of the accuracy of the presidents re.
marks in reference to Senators Knox.
Spooner and Foraker.
He declined, however, to be further
brought into the controversy at this
time, saying he would let the matter
for the present rest on the statement
made public by Mr.. Tillman. 1t was
with Mr.. Chambers consent that the
portion of his written statement to
Mr.. Tillman of his conference with the
president was made public.
