Ohio Republicans.

Columbus, O., July 25.-There was
widespread surprise throughout the adj
miustration wing OF the republican
party today because of a report that
Cmrfield's strength as gubcrnatorlal
candidate and an advocate Of pro-
grrssivc platform has caused the Cox
Bnrton-Dick combination to consider
peace negotiations with the former
Secretary OF the Interior.
1t is understood on good authority
that the regular republicans intend to
offer Garfield the nomination at the
state convention which will open here
tomorrow if he will endorse the Taft
administration. On the other hand,
anticipating the friends of Garfield, they
have made it plain that their candl-
date will go no further toward endors-
ing the president than for his good
intentions.
The platform now, as at all times
previous. is Gartield's chief interest
and he will willingly let the nomina-
ton pass if he can secure the adoption
OF progressive platform.
Another feature which adds IN
terest to the convention is the fact
that the balance Of power lies with
the uninstructed delegate. No man
comes anywhere near controlling a
majority of the delegates. The latest
conference between Dick and Burton
have set in motion the report that
Burton wants to back Speaker Gran
vile w. Mooney, of Ashtabula county.
Mooney, however, asserts that he
is candidate for secretary OF the state
and expects to be nominated, but there
is belief that if the exigencies of the
situation demand it, Mooney may be
sprung rs dark horse in an attempt
to stampede the convention away from
Garfield and his platform policies.
As the politicians now understand 1t,
the race lies between Garfield and
Warren G.. Harding, of Marion.

Think Gladstone Made a Mistake.

Cape Town, South Africa, July 25.-
South African politicians of all
parties are agreed that Herbert Glad
stone made mistake when he accepted
peerage upon his appointment as
governor general OF this most demo
cratic OF his majesty's domains. Eng
lish people remember the fact that by
thrice refusing peerage, Lord Glad
stones father endeared himself to the
people.
It is fortunate that though Lord
Gladstone is but slight reflection OF
his father in craftsmanship, he has in
his wife partner oil charm OF tact,
who, it is thought, will greatly aid her
husband in the rough ways OF South
African diplomacy.
The Gladstones will occupy Govern
ment House, beautiful mansion at
Brynterian, Pretoria, where the first
governor general is to hold a series OF
brilliant receptions. The gatherings
there will be, perhaps, the most cosmo'
politan in the world.
There will be Boer leaders-Louls
Botha, the famous soldier; Jan SHUTS,
distinguished as scholar and gen
eral; Risack, Hollander and sur
yivor of the Kruger regime; Dewitt
ex-President Steyn, Hertzog aud De-
Iarey-all the old veterans Of the war,
whose wounded spirits have not been
healed.
Then there will be the conquerors-
officers of the military aud the civil
administrations; Britishers, stiff-necked
and formal, fresh from Pail Mall.
And then there will be the Americans
who have come to South Africa to
direct the complicated mechanical side
of the great mining industry. And
consuls from every portion OF the globe
together with representatives from the
great financial and commercial houses
of America, France, Germany and
England. There will be Portuguese
officials from Lourenco Marques, fever
stricken missionaries froIh the interior,
police officials from the native reserves,
kaffir chiefs, and Boer farmers.
There are therefore, commercial,
political and racial differences to be
bridgcd over. If Lady Gladstone $
tact as a hostess cannot do this, 1t Is
feared that Lord Gladstone's diplomacy
will likewise fail.

Carroll was renominated as one OF the
stand-pat wing Of the republican party

COPENHAGEN has a milliner who
succeeded in making successful war
ON the big hat. Her establishment
was the headquarters for the best IN
tbe line Of millinery, and her business
was prosperous until rival from
Paris appeared on the scene, whose
hats were larger, more picturesque
and in every way more attractive.
She saw bankruptcy staring her in
the face, and to avert it resorted to
desnerate measures. She sent friend
to the Paris shop and purchased twenty
of the most elaborate hats and had
them distributed among the basket
women in the public market. The
aifts were accepted with thanks, the
hats being not only snowy but good
protection against the sun. The joke
soon spread through Copenhagen, and
every one laughed except the fashion
able women. Overnight the style was
changed. Customers returned to the
native milliner and the French woman
closed her shop.

Chinese Aggression.

London, July 25.-Strong reinforce
ments, reported from Simla as joining
the British garrisons along the Thibetan
frontier, leave no doubt that the gov
eminent is anxious over the danger of
Chinese aggression against India. At
the same time that it is strengthening
its own forces, England is protesting to
China because the latter is doing the
same thing. His majesty's govern
ment is unable to believe" explained
foreign minister Sir Edward Grey, in a
recent letter directing England's repre-
sentative at Pekin to warn China, that
the presence of Il large Chinese army in
the frontier can be required for simple
police duty" What England most
fears is that China will attempt to seize
the three border states, Napal, Sikkim
and Ehutan, which, because OF their
friendiness toward England, have been
allowed to maintain nominal independ-
ence under their Hindoo princess, but
subject to British supervision.

Tales Of HerOism.

London, July 25.-Tales of splendid
heroism, in many cases resulting IN
death, were told in messages received
today from Toxic, regarding the sink
ing of the Tctsurci Maru off Chlndo,
Corea, with the loss OF 100 lives.
When the little vessel, fogbound,
crashed on the shore and began sinking
there was no panic. Officers and men
calmly began filling the lifcboats with
passengers, women and children first,
but there was not enough boats. When
the last raft had been showed off from
the sinking vessel, the crew gathered
on the highest deck, and calmly stood
there to await death in the sea. Sur
vivors report that there was not a
single instance of cowardice or panic.
1t is reported that Japanese warshlps
hurried to the scene the disaster, and
picked up 105 third class passengers
and soldiers. These are in addition to
the 40 first class passengers already
reported saved. There were 246 pas
sengers and sailors on the Tetsurel
Maru, so that 101 are unaccountcd for
and probably lost. British Consul
Cunningham, of Osaka, was among the
saved.
The vessel has been plying between
Kobe and Dalay. She had lost her way
in the dense fog, and her captain was
unable to take his bearings.
