rRnuBLES OF THE G. 0. P.

The trials and troubles Of the Re
publican party are becoming too
numerous for the comfort Of the Re
publican leaders. The Philippine fol-
ly is becoming more and more a sore
spot on the body polite; the Cuban
blunder is again made acute by the
rival native factions quarreling over
the spoils Of office the Panama mess
has been raked over by the President,
but only promises that the cost will be
thrice what was estimated 80 far for
extra-continenial affair, At home
the Republican majority iu Congress
is restless and secretly opposed to
many Presidential policies and not
agreed on financial or economic legis-
lation. except that the majority Of the
majority are agreed 10 stand pat, while
a strong minority Of the Republican
voters are determined ON tariff reform.
The Republican majority Of the Sc
nate is discredited i'm their own states
and nationally and Depew and Plat
in New York. Dryden and Kean in
New Jersey, Penrose and Knox in
Pennsylvania. Aldrich and Wetmore
in Rhode Island Lodge in Massachu-
sets, Gallinger and Burnham in New
Hampshire. Foraker and Dick in OHIO
are holding Oh by their eyelids, and
other Senators are even more on the
ragged edge in consequence Of the lat
est exposure of the Coal land frauds.
The President himself is involved
in the Storer scandal, only part Of
which has yet been made public, and
the dismissal Of the negro soldiers is
sore spot that will be difficult TO heal.
Then there is the standing fight be-
tween the rival factions of the party
for supremacy, which will become
more acute as the time for the presi-
Dental nomination approaches. Those
who think that troubles are confined to
the Democratic party, should watch the
antics Of the party in power and they
will learn that Of the two the G.. o. p.
troubles are much the greater.

SOOn-AlsO Some Other
Work.
LIGHT PLANT IMPROVEMENT

The board of public works meets
tomorrow and will have many
things up for consideration. Orders
to start the street Improvement work
this season will probably be issued,
and plans made to proceed with the
fills and bridge repairs and other i'm
provements the board contemplates
doing this year. The year promises
to be busy one for this body.
The council last night concurred
in the action of the aldermen to as
certain the probable cost of addition
al equipment for the city light plant,
and this matter will be taken up by
the boards and the board of works
at once.
The ordinances for the improve
ments of the down town street pro-
posed to be reconstructed, wer,
recommitted to the ordinance COM
mittee and the board of works last
night because they embodied the
street and pavement improvements
in the same measure, and this will

VERDICT HELD UP
AWAITING ANALYSIS OF STOM-

Justice Emery, Acting Coroner, May
Order This Work Done
At Once.

The inquest over the remains of
Miami McChesney, colored, who died
yesterday at Eighth and Washington
streets, of heart trouble or morphine
accidentally taken, is yet incomplete.
The coroner's jury is waiting for the
opinion of an analytical expert as t.
the cause of the death.
The stomach was cut out by DR..
Horace T. Rivers on direction of
Coroner Frank Eaker Coroner Ea-
ker then turned the case over to JUS
tice Emery. being i'll. and Justice
Emery is in charge. The stomach will
show, after an analysis, whether
death was due to morphine, but no
steps towards analyzing the contents
have been taken. The stomach Is
still encased in bucket and DR.. Riv-
ers stated today that he was waiting
for instructions. II is understood
that there is no one here who is COM
petent to analyze a stomach's con-
tents unless 1t be Prof Woodbury.,
the chemist at the High school, but
he is not well prepared to do the
work.
Heretofore the stomachs taken
from bodies in McCracken county
have been sent to Louisville and
Coroner Eaker stated today that he
presumed this one would be, but
that rested with Justice Emery, who
has charge of the matter. Justice
Emery was busy in fiscal court to-
day and stated he did not know what
would be done, whether the stomach
would be analyzed here or in Louis
Vile.
The jury heard the evidence yes
terday afternoon at the woman's res
idence. but cannot decide the cause
of death until the analysis is COM
plete and the report secured.
The body was buried this after
noon at O'Clock from the residence,
interment at Oak Grove.
This afternoon County Judge r..
T. Lightfoot ordered DR.. Rivers to
send the stomach to Louisville for an
analysis, and this will be done.

PRESIDENT AND ELKINS
Confer Over the Rate Measure -
Latter Fairly Satisfied.

Washington, April 3. President
Roosevelt and Senator Elkins, of
West Virginia, chairman of the in
terstate commerce commission, had
conference regarding the limited
rate review which was agreed upon
last Saturday at conference In the
White House. Senator Elkins assur-
ed the president that the amendment
agreed upon to the Hepburn bill,
would be reasonably satisfactory to
him.
After his conference with the pres
ident Senator Elkins said:
"As a shipper | am more deeply
interested in the rate legislation than
am as a railroad man. | hope to sec
any amendment that may be added
to the measure afford the shippers
and localities precisely the same op-
portunity to appeal for a court re-
view as it may the railroads. We are
going to enact rate legislation, and
in my judgment it will be good legis-
lation. 1t will be fair and just in any
event"
