~OLUMBUS, Ohio, January 90
At Lima, Ohio today, Gov.
4 George White announced he
will be a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for elec-
ton to the United States Senate in the
State primary election the coming Sum-
mer. It had been generally discounted.
He made the announcement in an ad-
dress before the State Federation OF
Democratic Women, of which Mrs. Lu-
ella P. Magruder of Oberlin Is the
president. It was at Lima that the
Governor made announcement of each
of his gubernatorial candidates., IN both
of which he was successful, and he
laughingly explained that he did not
want to spoil good record.
He may have been further Influenced
by the fact that Lima Is the home OF
Francis w. Durbin, son OF w. w. Dur
bin, register of the Treasury, and the
outstanding anti White Democrat in
the State. This element of the Demo-
Donahey for the senatorial nomination
and former Representative M. L. Davey
of Kent for nomination for Governor,
but to a delegation from Kenton calling
upon Donahey this week to urge him
to enter the primaries, he merely said
that he had not decided to do so.
The announcement that Senator r.
j. Bulkley is to oppose the st. Lawrence
treaty has caused some unfavorable
comment in the State. 1t is recalled
that his predecessor, the late Senator
T. E. Burton, was outstanding in his
advocacy of the st. Lawrence Canal,
and he had the hearty support Of his
city of Cleveland enough, 1t
seemed, seeing that it is one of the
most important ports on Lake Erie.
Now the Cleveland Chamber of Com
merce has taken q stand In opposition
to the treaty, and the people in the
hinterland of Ohio, who had hoped for
better and cheaper transportation via
the canal, suspect that the Cleveland
Chamber Is being dominated by the
railroads.

temporarily, by Tammany Democrats in

HIGH HONORS FOR
 JOSEPH MONAGHAN
Elected to Office at Meet- ing of Veterans of /
 Boxer War

Waterbury delegates to the an- nual convention of the Great Yam en, Imperial Order of the Dragon, which was held in New York last Saturday, are back home and ex- press much pleasure over meeting their old comrades in arms. One of the pleasant things about the gathering for the local men is that one of them, Joseph Monaghan, is
 selected provisional viceroy for Connecticut. The rec ommendation has to receive the approval of the board of agents, before MT. Mon- aghan will be notified of his elec- ton.
 In addition to the club in New York, there are several other branches of the order. Only men who served in China during the Boxer War and can show honor- able discharges are eligible for membership.
 The Waterbury men were in the hottest part of the fighting in the great battle that took place when Captain Reilly was killed in the struggle to enter the Forbidden City. Prior to this Colonel Liscum was killed in another fight, and many of his comrades either lost their lives or were wounded. Cap- tain Reilly and Colonel Liscum
 were brave officers and command ed the respect of the men under their command. One of the Water | bury veteran organizations is
 named for Colonel Liscum. Among the United States soldiers
 who figured in the Boxer War were
 the fifth, ninth and fourteenth ar-
 tillery; Sixth Cavalry, dismounted, land American marines. 1t is sbe- ieyed that the reason so many 1 lost their lives in the fight to en-
 ter the Forbidden City was due to
 the fact that only a limited num-
 Der would operate in the danger
 zone, and until the victory was won
 by the Yankee troops the Chinese
 picked off many of them from | vantage points on the outside and other walls outside the city. The local survivors of the con- fiict in China are Joseph Monaghan of 364 Frost Road, Robert Sutton of Cherry street, Charles Haggerty of East Mountain and Morgan Do- Ian of Wall street. These men, like their companions, made good in China and if they are not receiving enough in the way of pensions to maintain themselves comfortably, the government is unmindful of what 1t owes to it's defenders in time of war.

The local post office did its best today to follow the old depart ment motto that nothing keeps a carrier from making his appoint ed rounds but 1t proved useless. First of all, the mali trains failed to get through and there was scarcely any mall to deliver. Sec. ondly, many of the postmen found it absolutely impossible to get to the office for duty.
 There were no deliveries this morning and there will be none all day.
 The postmen who did report for duty were set at sorting out what little mail there was on hand, but when it became evident that the mail train would not b. Yin they were dismissed for the day.

Hundreds of factory employes were snow-bound today with the result that many departments fell behind production schedules. So that their employees might reach home before dark and to attend to the task of replenishing depleted larders, a number of the factories planned an early closing hour this afternoon.
 The Chase Metal Works and the Chase Rolling Mills closed at noon hour. The Waterbury Brass Goods. owing to the few employees pre- senting themselves, failed to open. The Scovill Manufacturing com pany and the Waterbury Manufac- turing company also announced that 1t would suspend operations at noon hour. No night forces were expected to report this evening.
 Inquiry among other plants of the city indicated that the working forces were affected from 20 to 50 per cent. All announced that If work was carried on during the afternoon their employees would be dismissed at an early hour, between 8 and 3:30 o'clock.

WILL ADMISSION
 APPEAL FILED
Naugatuck Man Is COfns plainant-CiteS Undue
 Influence Brought

Lionel LeCiair of Naugatuck has filed notice of appeal from the ad- mission to probate of the will of his late mother, Xaverine LeClair. The will was admitted by Judge Dennis J. Slavin last month fol- lowing several hearings in which evidence was offered to show by members of the family that Mrs LcClair was of sound mind when she sighed her last testament. MT LeClair during the hearings en- deavored to show that other mem- bers of the family had influenced his mother against him. He told of having visited her during her last illness.
 It was also stated that Mrs Le- Clair had made inquiries of her counsel whether or not the law compelled her to leave her son something, even the nominal sum of $1. She was advised that there was no such legal requirement, so she completely amitted his name from the list of beneficiaies.
 The case is now slated for trial in the superior court.

During the last two winters, if they
had one meal day they considered
themselves fortunate. The food
consisted Of white and red beans,
corn bread and syrup. Occasionally
they had sowbelly, white meat
that is, the cheap white pork. No
variety existed even for the sick
and children. Milk had been I'M
heard of for at least two years.
Yet even this starvation diet, this
steady diet of red beans, white
beans and corn bread, was not in
large enough amounts to give each
one meal day.
Brewer continues in his report :.
Several men, gathered in a group,
related how at first the older folks
would economic on food so that
the children could have more. And
then the men would cut their al
