The election mas been fought with the greatest
energy, mainly around the question OF tariff re-
form and much bitterness has been impaired 10
the struggle by the decision OF the Irish to
nominate a home Rule candidate for the purpose
OF weakening the Liberal nominee. All four TO-
litcal parties have candidates In the field, and his
makes the struggle most complex. II is impossible

The government candidate IS s. l. Hughes. Il
brilliant Radical journalist The Conservative can
didate Is Patrick Rose Innes, a harristcr and a
strong tariff reformer: the Nationalist candidate IS
Alderman John OIIanlon and the Labor candidate

Considerable humor has been brought into the

money for his election expenses.

criticisms of his conduct in the case of Henry c.
Howels, the real estate dealer who committed
suicide by drinking chloroform at his home.
No. West 6Sth street. early Wednesday morn
ing. 1t was said that Coroner Shrady did every
thing possible to suppress the news OF the sui
eide but he denies this The physician who was
called to attend Mr.. Howells was Arthur w.
Shrady. the coroner's cousin. The report Of the
death was not registered on the record book. and
this was said TO he due TO the rush Of business
1t IS believed that heavy losses in Wall Street
last March led Mr.. Howells to kill himself. His
means awakened his wife, who summoned DR..
Shrady. He could not save the man. Mr.. and
Mrs Hoxvells lived in the Raymore apartments,
but news Of the suicide kept from the other
residents and even from the dead mans closest
friends. The case was taken up by the coroners'
office which did not give out the fact that death
was due TO suicide and IL was at first supposed
that it had been from natural causes.
Mrs Howells is Frustrated by the occurrence.
Besides his widow the dead man leaves two

Akron Ohio. July 4.-United States Senator
Charles Dick gave out signed statement to-
night regarding his business relations with Fred
E. Smith, formerly Treasurer Of Akron. whose
shortage IS said 10 be $173.992 and from whom
Senator Dick was alleged 10 have borrowed
money three notes. Senator Dick says IN
part:
In view OF the malicousy false statements con-
corning myself appearing in some newspapers IN
connection with the report TO tho Auditor OF State
upon the examination OF the treasury Of the Cty
of Akron, feel cannot do less than TO say t4at
never directly or indirectly borrowed dollar from
Treasurer Smith from any other treasurer or
custodian Of public funds. and while have not as
vet seen the report do not believe such charge
Is justified by anything this report contains.
The facts. briefly stated. arc these: When tho
Akron Savings Bank passed into the hands OF re-
celvers I was in the banks debt personally and
Jointly with J. =. Miles. my personal obligation
being amply and satisfactorily secured by stock OF
tho bank, as collateral, the market value or winch
prior the banks difficulties considerably exceeded
the amount OF my loan When the assets were
sold by the receivers to George D. Bates these
were transferred him. Subsequently he
sold these notes. with others which he had pur-
chased from tho receivers. 10 Fred l.. Smith. who
in turn transferred his entire holdings TO the bond
ing company upon its request and demand. Until
Mr Smiths difficulties arose I d!d not know that
this paper was IN his possession. hut supposed Il
was sun the property OF Mr.. Bates and his aSso-
clates- However. this does not in the least modify
my original statement These notes made and
still payable to George D Bates. trustee and
not dollar Of the money which they represent
ever came TO mo from any public officer or was
supplied from any public funds
Securities given TO Smith by persons 10 whom
he was supposed 70 have lent public funds were
listed in the report OF State Examiner Par

by Dick e Miles" on July &, 1900, for $1,000
each.
Smith has made good part OF his shortage
and is now trying 30 square the rest. II IS said
he will get all the time he wants 10 do this and
that there will be no prosecution.
