lBy Telegraph 20 The Tribune. I


Cleveland. Sept. 5-The result of the Repub-
Hcan Councilmen's primaries, held to-day, indi-
Gates the great popularity of Representative
Theodore e. Burton. who has been forced by
popular demand to consent 10 become the party
candidate for Mayor against Tom L. Johnson
Five Councilnen elected as Republicans have
voted so consistently IN support of Mayor John
son that they have been styled assistant Dem
ocrats," and all of them sought denomination
at the polls to-day. Only of the five was
successful.
In the Sd Ward DR.. George NJ Kinsey was
nominated over Thomas E Croke; in the 18th
Alfred H Lewis lost to W. F. Zipp; in the 10Th
A. H. Stanton was showed under by Alexander
Bernstein. and in the 23d E. B. Haserodt was
retired as the party candidate by Thomas j.
Higgins The only one of the five caricatured
Councilmen to obtain denomination was John
D. McClain. representing the 9th, or what is
known as the "TendeTion' ward. and his vic
tory was regarded as foregone conclusion.
These noteworthy results viewed by Re-
publican leaders not only as the logical sequel
to the consent of Representative Burton 10
run for Mayor but also a forecast OF the
result of the election next November Mayor
Johnson and his satellites did their utmost to
renominate all five, but the only one they could
pull through represents ward admittedly ut

prominent citizens in favor Of Mr.. Burton came

statements was the following, made by James

ANOTHER NEW YORK.
Ne5c BattIeship To Be Named for
Empire State.

Washington, Sept. 5-The Navy Department
practically has decided to name the 20OoO-ton
battleship 90 a sister ship to the Delaware.
the New York. This can be effected by chang
ing the name Of the armored cruiser OF that
name to the Saratoga.
No. 90 had been left unnamed because the
act Of Congress requires battleships to bear the
names of states and there were but two such
names available Utah and North Dakota 1t
was felt at the Navy Department that neither
of these states by reason Of population or de-
velopment could properly lay claim to the finest
ship in the navy.
Recalling that the famous old frigate Sara
toga had been condemned and her name stricken
from the naval list, Acting Secretary Newberry
regarded It q misfortune that the American
navy should thus lose a name covered with glory
in the early days Of the history of the country,
and IT occurred to him TO transfer the name Of
the Saratoga to another ship already the
naval list.
BY transferring that name to the present ar
ncred cruiser New York the Navy Department
viii be able TO use the latter name for the uu-
named battleship %. which represents the high
est development in American naval construction
The original Saratoga won distinction a
flagship in the battle of Lake Champlain.

one hundred and twenty-seven miles OF north

O'Clock this evening. The balloon rose from

a fresh northwesterlv breeze, started for the
green hills of Vermont. Sailing for portion
Of the time below the clouds. and then in dense
banks OF mist the balloon was carried near
Wilmington. Vt. There the balloon struck a
southeasterly course. and headed for Green

This slant Of the wind took the voyagerS
within sight of the Connecticut River, where
another air current swept the big bag up the
river valley In a northerly direction. Mrs
Fleischmann was enthusiastic over this portion
Of the trip through one OF the most picturesque
regions Of the east between the White and
Green Mountain ranges. Up the beautiful val
lev as far as Windsor, VT, in1pelled by a
breeze that still held fresh and sent the big
bag at a good pace. the voyagers sailed until
a northeast air current swept them across
the Connecticut River into New Hampshire,
and at supper time the travellers made an easy
and uneventful descent here. They will return
TO New York tomorrow.

EXPLOSION H MYSTERY.
Something Not Kno;rn Made Hueh
NOim7 and Smoke in Frankfort st.

An explosion which could be heard for sew
eral blocks occurred last night in Frankfort
street, near William. at about 5 o'clock. Al
most Immediately a large crowd was surglnS
to the place and the families living in the
small tenements at Nos. %. p and 81 Frank
fort street rushed into the street. dense cloud
Of smoke obscured the neighborhood. and when
a number Of children were seen TO break from
the vapor II was feared that several had been
killed or injured. AS as the smoke lifted.
however, it was found that no one had oeen
injured and that no damage had resulted.
Children were romping in the street when
something came down among them. The explo-
sion that followed sent the youngsters scurry-
ing to their homes. Policemen from the City
Hail and Oak street stations went to the place
on q run Ruuors of a Black Hand outrage
made them especially eager. They could not
find q fragment OF a bomb No one knew
that the explosion was caused by a bomb. but
# was inferred that the nihilists' weapon must
have been used.
Detective Wall, of the Oak street station
visited the tenements. He got no information
there. Some one said that the explosive came
from one of the high buildings by. The
policeman investigated. but could find nothing.
Captain Toole of the Oak street station. with
several of the reserves. took a hand in the
search but the cause remained a mystery. The
police at last gave it up. the crowd dispersed,
the youngsters put to bed. and even the
odor of burned powder soon disappeared

violated the laws OF this state In that II has
entered into combinations for the creation nf
a monopoly in restraint of trade and for the
prevention OF competition in a necessity OF life.
The copies OF contracts and correspondence
secured by the Attorney Generals experts at
the office Of the American Ice Company show,
so the Attorney general believes, a deliberate
plan on the part of the company to monopolize
the sources Of supply and distribution available
to New York City and other places President
Oler's correspondence also showed IL is alleged.
in a number of instances that the American
Ice Company by specific contracts compelled
both independent and subsidiary companies
operating in New York City to sell ice only at
prices fxed by the American Ice Company. and
also exacted agreements from them that they
would not seek TO increase their business In
1905 when ice was plentiful. the annual report
Of the American Ice Company shows. 1t Is as
