COMING TO WARN
WORLD OF THE END
~
Promised Prophet Elias
Will Start in Washington
and Go to All Capitals.

CHICAGO, Jan. S.-F. w. Kaspereit,
the Promised Prophet Elias" has for
mally warned President Taft that the
end of the world is to come on April Z,
1912, and has sent a similar notification
to every crowned head and president of
a republic in the world.
In order to fully present his warning
to the rulers and to all mankind. the
prophet is to spend month In WASH
ington preaching the end of the world,
and is to follow this with month at
each of the leading capitals In Europe.
Kaspereit says his notifications Of the
exact date were sent to the various
rulers by registered mail, and that he
has already received from one of the
secretaries of President Taft the re-
ceipted registry card.
1t is .Kaspereit's desire to give his own
country the first advantage OF his
knowledge of the exact date of the end,
and So his mission to Washington Will
begin on March and end on April of
this year. London will get month of
warning. Paris will be last, as II Is so
wicked, and might relapse IL stirred up
too long before the fatal day.
Kaspereit says an angel visited him
and told him of the date. and that sub
sequent visits OF this and other angels
directed him exactly what course to
take in notifying the world. He has a
considerable following.

MAY TURN DINNER
into HARMON BOOM
Belief That Baltimore Rally
Will Launch Ohioan for
Presidency.

BALTIMORE, Jan. S.-That the big
Democratic dinner here on January II,
which will be attended by hundreds of
prominent Democrats from all parts of
the country, and was planned as a har-
mony affair, will turn out 10 be the
means of formally launching the boom
of Governor Harmon, of Ohio, for Presi-
dent, is the growing belief here.
1t is understood that he is the favorite
of the Maryland contingent, and will be
the guest of honor. Just how his name
will be presented has not yet been de-
termined, but il is more than likely that
the toastmaster at the banquet will take
the initiative when presenting the dis
tinguished Ohioan, and the thousand
voices present will do the rest. A repre-
sentative of the Ohio boomers who are
pushing Harmon to the fore has been
here several days, and the movement is
now being planned.
Governor Wilson, of New Jersey, will
not be present to interfere with the
demonstration. 1t has not yet been de-
Cided whether Governor Harmon will
speak at the Lyric meeting, but IL is
probable that he will appear at both
the meeting and banquet, the address In
the afternoon being more. OF an
academic one. dealing with Democratic
policies from the Jeffersonian stand

TUG ON FOR TOGAS
IN WEST VIRGINIA
Senate Vacancies of Scott and Elkns Draws Leaders
Into Conflict at Charlest on and Many Candidates
~. Are Cropping Out. <....,. .~.

CHARLESTON w. Va, Jan. s.
The fight over the election of two
United States Senators from West Vir-
ginia to succeed Nathan. B. Scott and
the late Stephen b. Elkins began in
earnest today, following the arrival in
this city of Clarence w Watson, presi-
dent of the Consolidation Coal Company,
who is one Of the candidates for the
long-term peciDd, beginning March z,
1912. James .. and George Il. Watson,
nephews of the coal magnate, arrived
here vest erday, and it was frankly
admitted this morning that the SEN
atorial fight had brought the trio.
William L. Chiffon, of Charleston, and
John X. McGraw. of Grafton, the other
two candidates for the long term, have
already taken up headquarters here, and
until the contest is settled Charleston
win be the central point of the fight.
McGraw will arrive here tonight or to-
morrow. The confidence of all the prin-
cipaIs presages a lively fight in the
Legislature, which will convene on
Tuesday to make the selection. Each
candidate looks to particular sections
of the State for support. and in each
of these sections confidence is expressed
for its respective candidate.
Two Vacancies Caused.
Senator Elkins' death made two va
canCies. His term in the Senate would
have expired on March 4, 1915. The
Legislature, which convenes next Tues
day, will name a Senator for the inter-
vening period. 1t will also elect i
United States Senator for the full term
of six years from March 4, 1912.
This Legislature is Democratic. Hence
ii will name Democrats for the United
States Senate.
others besides the three candidates
named have a few votes, but the fight
centerS about these men. There are no
candidates for the short term. 1t Is
assumed that this is only simplifying
factor in the main fight. 1t will help
settle the Iong-term Senatorship.
As Charleston is the home of William
f. Chiffon, sentiment is strong for him
here. His supporters are very conf
dent, and so is he.
Say that ! will be elected on the
first ballot was Mr.. Chilton's reply
to a question concerning his chances.
Before this ballot is cast the Legisla-
ture will meet by parties to caucus.
As there are Seventy-SiX Democrats i'll
the Legislature, thirty-nine will be nee
essary to a choice. Friends of Chiffon
can count only thirty votes for him.
After deducting thirty votes from the
Democratic membership, fOrty-SiX re-
main. Six of these are scattered, and
the others are divided between McGraw
and Watson. 1t is claimed by Chiffon S
The Washington times., 1911-01-08

friends that Watson has more votes
than McGraw. Chilton's friends, how
ever, are more friendly to Watson than
to McGraw. This may influence them
in counting McGraw short and both
Chiffon and Watson long.
Under existing conditions a cOmbina
ton between Watson and Chiffon seems
the natural thing. 1t happens, however,
fight for him as the long-term Senator
will be waged to the bitter end 1t is
not assumed that Watson would be sat
lSticd with the tWO-year term. McGraw
is an aStute politician. He has been
quietly working, and his strength mag
be greater than his enemies suppose.
Watson has rented the first floor of
the Ikanawha Hotel, and he has quar-
tersJ also at the Ruffner Hotel where
McGraw has rooms.
Monday Is Big Day.
Monday will be the big day in the
Senatorial fight, and plans for II are be-
ing made today. Former Governor Mac
Corkle, who was elected to the State
tiers also at the Ruffner Hotel, where
of the Chiffon forces.
Still, the talk of a Watson-Chilton
combination is strong. All that can
prevent it is the political sagacity of
John X. McGraw. His ability is un-
questionable, but the opinion is gaining
ground that the task ahead of him is
very big one.
