ADVANCE THE CASE.
Oklahoma Warrant Suit in the SUI
preme Court.

Attorney General Coleman this
morning filed a motion in the supreme
court asking that the case of the state
against Il. T. Kelly, formerly state
treasurer be advanced on the calen-
dar so that hearing of the case may
be had at the earliest possible mo-
ment. The case was Instituted short
ly after the discovery of shortages in
the account of ex-Treasurer Kelly by
the expert accountants employed by
the state, amounting to something Ike
$4,000, on account of Oklahoma war
rants which were sold.
Suit was instituted shortly after by
c. c. Coleman. then attorney general
for the state on eleven accounts
though nine of them were practically
withdrawn before the~trial of the case
in the district court which occurred on
the 18th of July. sl9a6 On the second
day of the trial Sf@the case Judge
Dana sustained the demurrer of the
defendant to the third count which
was charge of a shortage of $6,66S
warrants sold. Upon the other counts
the court ruled the following day in
favor Of the defendant.
In rendering the decision in the dis
trict court Judge Dana said, referring
to the contention of c.. C. Coleman
then attorney general, that Kelly had
acted without authority of law in dis
posing of certain warrants "a COM
plete answer to that proposition is
that Kelly is not being prosecuted
here for malfeasance in office, but this
is an action for recovery of damages
alleged to have been sustained by the
state, and unless it is shown that the
state has sustained damages it can
not expect to recover in this case.''

APPLE SHORTAGE.
This Years Crop Estimated at Scant
24,OOO,OOO Barrels.

New York, Nov. 6.-The apple crop of
the United States for 1907, as estimated
by The American Agriculturist in it's
report to appear on November 9, is
scant "a, 600, 600 barrels, materially short
of last year. What is Of great import
ance is the shortage in such commercial
orchard sections as western New York,
nearly all of Michigan and the entire
southwest There is what may be set
down as an absolute failure in Kansas,
Missouri and Nebraska.
New York state has a good many ap-
pies, but they will be needed. and for
that matter. the total is only about one
fourth to oHe-third of a full yield.
Pennsylvania has fairly abundant
totals. New England has rather more
apples than last year, due solely to the
fact that Maine has a good crop.

OHIO.
Tom johnson Defeats Congressman
Burton in Cleveland.

Burton in Cleveland.
Cincinnati, Nov. 6.-Ohio's first ex-
perience in separate municipal cleo
tions demonstrated that local issues
would be paramount, and the results
are SO various that partisan victory
can not be generally counted as such,
each fight having some particular
complication.
In Cleveland interest centered on
the contest of Mayor Tom L. johnson
and Congressman Theodore Burton
over matter of street railway fares, an
ultimate cent fare or the immediate
accomplishment of a present peace in
local transportation matters. Seem
ing to give a ballot leaning toward the
former idea endorsed by johnson,
johnson was reelected.
In Cincinnati Markbreit, Repub-
lican, was elected mayor by 50 sweep
ing a vote that he has apparently car
ried his entire ticket with him, end
ing a fight of Mayor Dempsey, Demo-
crat, for the vindication of a re-elec-
ton and the present efforts of those
who have been long opposing Repub-
ican leadership in Cincinnati affairs.
In Toledo Mayor Brand Whitlock,
who refused a Democratic nomination
and ran for reelection as an inde-
pendent, has been emphatically en-
dorsed, securing over 1000 plurality.
Bond, Republican, was elected
1000 plurality over Duncan, Demo-
crat, who had announced strict en-
forcement Of all liquor and Sunday
laws as his platform.
Dayton's three cornered fight SEEM
ed according to the early returns to

candidates.
Mansfield has elected a Republican
mayor, while Canton, Youngstown,
GAINESVILLE, Springfield. Findlay, Ports
mouth, Ironton and Xenia seem to
have chosen Democrats to run their
affairs.

a platform in which he declared for
continuance of that policy.
Strict enforcement of liquor and
Sunday laws affected the result in
GAINESVILLE also and many smaller
cities.
Cleveland, O.. Nov. 6.-Following the
reelection of Mayor Johnson, the
Cleveland Electric Railway company,
again resumed selling tickets at the old
rate of eleven for so cents. For a month
prior to the election the company sold
the tickets at the rate of seven for IS
cents, upon which basis they asked
renewal of their franchise. Mayor john
son was elected upon a straight three
cent platform. It is probable that the
Cleveland Electric Railway company
will keep the higher rate of fare In
force during the remainder of the life
of their franchise. The question of an
nexing Collinwood, a suburb to Cleve-
land, was carried by a large majority at
yesterdays election.

New York, Nov. 6.-Additional elec-
ton returns received through the night
and this morning clear up some of the
doubts in closely contested elections
The main results as now esta blished are
as follows:
Governor Guild of Massachusetts, has
increased his plurality to about 105, 600
against 10000 in 1906. The entire state
ticket and both branches of the Iegfs-
lature are Republican. Of the two
Democratic candidates Henry M Whit
ney strongly outran Charles w. Bart
lett, the latter falling far below Thomas
L. Hisgen, candidate of the Independ-
ence league.
Maryland has elected the Democratic
candidate for governor, Judge Austin
L. Crothers and the entire Democratic
state ticket by about 1000 plurality.
The legislature is apparently Demo-
cratic. Ex-Governor Smith carried the
primaries for the long term in the Uni
ted States senate and Senator Villa m
Pinckney Whyte is assured of the short
term.
The result in New Jersey has become
so close that it may require the official
returns to decide between Katzenbach
the Democratic candidate for governor,
and Judge Fort, the Republican nonI-
inee- The early reports of Katzen
bach's lead of 5000 have been followed
by detailed returns showing that only
a few hundred votes separate the con-
testants. At Newark Forts election is

Peabody Wetmore to the United States
senate.
Kentucky has elected the entire Re-
publican state ticket, headed by Angus
tus E. Wilson, for governor. by majori-
ties ranging from 5000 to 10000. The
Kentucky legislature will have a Demo-
cratic majority en- joint ballot and prob
ably will elect Governor Peckham to

TOO MUCH RED TAPE.
he Doesn't Want to Meet
Royalty Officially
And 1t Seems He Could Not
Well Travel without 1t.

washington, Nov. 6.-Dispatches stat
ing that Secretary Taft had changed his
plans Tor making a tour of Europe and
would return directly to San Francisco
were received here and were at once
repeated to officials of the war depart
ment These dispatches were accepted
as probably being correct by persons
who had been familiar from the first
with Secretary Taft's intentions.
1t was explained by those who SHARE
the administration confdence ana are
familiar with Secretary Taft's plans
tnat he has been greatly embarrassed
because OF the fnsistence of European
powers that he make an official rather
than a personal visit out of his tour of
Europe. AS the European diplomats
regard the situation, Secretary Taft
cannot divorce himself from his ofIiciaI
capaclty. IL he comes into Germany
or any other country he comes from
their viewpoint as the secretary of war
and official representative of the Amer
lean people. AS such he would not be
rree TO decline or accept invitations and
would in no sense be in command of mis-
own time.
The secretary does not want to make
ot1clal visits to European countries, but
did want to return by Europe as Taft
the citizen. That this view is probably
correct is shown by the time which will
be consumed in the return across the
Pacific.
Had Secretary Taft gone from vladi-
vostok to st. Petersburg he could have
made the trip, visiting Berlin and
thence home, in about 20 days. Re-
turning across the Pacific the best time
possible to Washington will be 80 or 81
days, so that two days will be lost in
stead OF gained by the proposed change.

PIttSburg Leader Out for
SenatorShip Against
PenrOSe.

There is something doing in Pennsyl-
Vania politics. and 1t is something that
worries the Pennsylvania machine more
than the machinlsts like to admit. They
are wondering whether the National
Administration has actually decided to
take vigorous measures to prevent Pen
rose control OF the keystone delegation
TO the national convention.
Several months ago a veritable sensa-
ton was caused IN Pennsylvania by
the announcement in Washington that
Justice Elkin, OF the Pennsylvania SUI
preme court. was likely TO be brought
out by the Administration, and yiBor-
ously backed for the Senate. In place

TO wrest the State leadership from Pen

There is no doubt that something OF
this sort must be done IL Pennsylvania
is to be kept out of the anti-Administra-
lion column at the national convention.
At present. with PenrOse bOssing and
Knox to the front as a highly respect
able candidate for President, things are
shaping for a machine delegation, which
at the right time will enter the coali-
ton Of anu-Roosevelt forces, and help
