Withdrawal of Ohio Senator From
Race Adds New Angle to
the Situation
BITTER CONTEST PREDICTED
Candidacy of Three Republicans
and Four Democrats Is
Announced

Columbus, o., jane 5.-The political
pot in ohio, which seldom ceases to
simmer reached the bubbling stage
when Senator Theodore T.. Burton an
nounced that he would not be a can
didate for denomination. And now IL
has burst into a boil with the addition
of former Lieutenant Governor War
rem G. Harding to the list of entries in
the free-for-all race for the Burton
toga. From now until the August pri-
maries, unless present signs are mis-
leading, the Buckeye state is going e.
have one of the hottest political bat
ties on her hands that she has expert
enced in many a long day.
Tie contests for the senatorial nom
ination promise to be equally bitter in
both of the old parties. ON the Repub-
lican side the ayOwed candidates in
clude former Senator Joseph Il. Forak-
er Of Cincinnati, former Lieutenant
Governor Harding of Marion, and for
mer Congressman Ralph d. Cole of
Findlay, with one or two other possl-
bic entries who are not expected to cut
much figure in the race. On the Dem
ocratic side there are four active con-
estants-Attorney General Timothy S
HoGan, John II. Clarke of Cleveland
former Congressman John j. Lentz OF
Columbus and John l.. Zimmerman of
Springfield.
May Hurt Foraker's Chance.
Speculation is now rife as to the ef-
feet that the Harding candidacy will
have on Foraker's chances to secure
the nomination. Before Harding enter
cd the race the Foraker adherents pro-
claimed that it was the former Sena-
tor against the field and that Foraker
would finish first without any great
Admitting that Foraker he'd
but Il minority Of the party in his sup
port and was out of sympathy with
the rank and file, il was figured that
his support was certain to stand by
him through thick and thin, and that
with the majority split up among sew
eral opposing candidates. there could
be but one result-the nomination Of
Foraker for another term in the SEN
ate.
But with the entry of Harding in the
race the question has arisen whether
the former Lieutenant Governor may
not draw off a considerable part of the
Foraker support. Harding has always
been a close personal and political
friend Of ex-senator Foraker, and
stood by the latter when it was pro-
posed TO retire him i'm order to send
Mr.. Burton to the senate six years ago.
I is because Harding stands well with
he Foraker supporters that many
lose followers Of the game predict
hat he will cut heavily i'm upon the
foraker strength in the senatorial con-
est. And the same argument has
ervcd to inspire new courage in the
iole camp. II is figured by the fol-
overs of the congressman that the
opposition will he split between For
kcr and Harding and thus increase
he chances for Mr.. Cole to win the
ace

the country are being closed, except

requested 10 leave the palace after the
occurrence. She left without protest
officials of the palace today were on
the verge OF nervous prostration and
every precaution was taken to prevent
repetition of the performance at to-
nights function at the palace.
Miss Bloomfield had only time 10

JAPAN IN MIDST
Of A STRUGGLE
Transitions Taking Place Grad
ually; Cabinet and Newspapers
Work In Harmony.

Toxic, May 19.-Eperything in ia
pan today indicates, 1aSuse the words
Of a leading Japanese newspaper, that
Japan is in the midst Of a silent but
great struggle between the democra-.
tic forces and the conservative and
bureaucratic machines" The return
10 power of Count Shigenohu Okuma,
who has astonished his best friends
by the radicalism OF his utterances in
the past few years, shows that demo-
cratic forces have won a single vic.
tory for the moment. 1t is not too
much to say that the recommends.
ton of Count Okuma as premier by
the few remaining elder statesmen Of
the Empire was really out of defer.
ence to the voice of the people.
Losing Their Grip.
The elder statesmen, or genro, had
previously selected Viscount Kiyoura
in an attempt to keep the reins Of
government in the hands of the bure-
aucrats and reactionaries. but the pro-
test from the different groups in the
House of Representatives was so
strong that Kiyoura was forced to
abandon his task of forming a cabinet.
At the same time the genro, who now
number fewer than half a dozen very
aged men, were severely condemned
by the press as no longer represent
ing the new Japan which resired that
the government should pass from the
hands of a few men into the hands of
the people. Count Okuma himself had
been a member of the genro but his
radicalism made him no longer vel.
come among the bureaucrats and he
resigned.
Took Newspapers In Confidence.
The astonishing feature of this
most remarkable chapter in recent
Japanese history is the shift from a
man of the Kiyoura type to Count
Okuma. The latter has always joyful
lys preached his belief that he will live
to be 125 years old. This gives some
mixing of the ocular, democratic ma
ture OF the mar himself. When he
formed his cabinet he called the
newspaper reporters into his Office
and said: Nov ! want you to give us
a fair chance. MY mission is to re-
move all the forces Of bureaucracy
which have impeded the progress Of
constitutional government, especially
when 1t has Joined hands with the SO.

commander but if | keep aboard too
long will have to take back my old
declaration about living to be 1876"
Ihe new premier is now rs.
Wanted to Eliminate Bureaus.
Conn. Okuma said he wanted to get
rio OF the evils. of clan government
and clan fayoritisn. He wanted TO
stop the friction between the army and
navy and establish harmony on ques
tons OF national defence. He would
stop all corruption. He was optinis.

telligent observers have recently not
ICED great changes in the political
psychology of Japan, but few see lis
true cause. The mobs, the demonstra-
lions and all kinds of excitement
have but one root cause. namely, the
strong desire and increasing struggle
for equal opportunities"

POLE Wins BOUT
But SMALL PURSE
Was Thrown First Time, Then
Refused 10 Wrestle with His
Shoes On His Feet.

Minneapolis, May 19-Wrestling in
his old time form Henry Ordeman of
this city last night won the first fall
of his match with Zbyszko at Nicollet
park with the toe hold and then lost
the second two after the Polish wrest
Ter had refused to continue wearing
his shoes. Directly after Ordeman had
won the first fall in twenty minutes
on the famous Gotch Toe Grip, Zby-
szko madly tore off his shoes and
threw them far into the field. He
stirred up the crowd to a fighting
pitch. A portion of the crowd showed
an inclination to surge about the ring
but -4oyszko was promptly escorted to
his dressing room by the police and
was not further molested when he
appeared for the second bout. In this,
however, he would not wear shoes
and won this and the third, but for
feited the $500 he had posted as a
guarantee that he would not wrestle
bare footed.
This money was collected by ,Orde-
man at the boxoffice before Jack Her
man, the Poles manager, had been
paid, and that worthy left the city
last night with his man still cham
pion, but with little cash to show for
his evenings work.
