Cleveland, Feb. 1.-THE gas boom
in this vicinity is over. Too many per-

a result investors have lost hundreds
of thousands of dollars. Experts to-
day placed the gas flow in Cuyahoga
county fields at 100000 cubic feet
per day A year ago it was 1000,
600, and the field was rated as the
most active in the world. Hundreds of
wells, driven at a cost of $4,000 each,
are being pulled, and the piping sold
for $500. Most of the gas being used
here is piped from West Virginia.

But what the Republican cause has
lacked in enthusiasm, it has made up in
the extravagant use of money In no
other campaign has any party been so
well supplied with funds, and at no other
time has money been spent with such

invested by the Republicans in newspa-

The Republican campaign, however,
has suffered from bad management and
date. He has been a disappointment all
over the country and has not strengthen
ed his case by his attacks upon the Will

capped of course for the want Of an is
sue, but he has not made the most of
his opportunities. There have been
many internal rows in the Republican
