MANY PERISH IN THE WAVES
Amer Is Overwhelmed in Big Storm Off Halifax Coast.
TWENTY-FIVE BODIES FOUND
South List Known to Be Thirty-
Two-Five Persons Were Cast
Upon the Beach Unhurt.
A special from Halifax, N. S., says:
The worst marine disaster in the long
list of steamers wrecked among the
rocks and shoals at the entrance of the
Bay of Fundy occurred Saturday morning
when the side-wheel steamer City
of Monticello, bound from St. Johns for
for Yarmouth, was quickly overwhelmed by the mountainous seas only four miles from her destination,
and engulfed with thirty-four of her
passengers and a crew. A heavy gale
was raging at the time and there was
a tremendous sea.
The place where the Monticello struck is at the mouth of the Bay of Fundy, where the waters of the bay join those of the Atlantic. There are many reefs and shoals at this point, and the currents are many and changeable, it being one of the most dangerous places on the coast.
Just before the vessel foundered an attempt was made to reach the land in a small boat in charge of the quartermaster, and it contained Third Officer Fleming, a stewardess named Smith and three passengers. This boat was smashed by a huge crumber, and the occupants being hurled upon the beach at Pembroke uninjured. It is beaved these are the only survivors.
The City of Monticello was used in the coastwise service between Halifax, Yarmouth and St. Johns, and was due at Halifax Sunday morning. She was an iron, side-wheel boat of about 1,000 tons gross, and was commanded by Captain Harding, of Yarmouth, where most of the thirty-seven men belong. She was formerly called the City of Norfolk, and was built at Wilmington, Del., in 186 6. When she received British register her name was changed. She was valued at $35,000, and was partially insured. The vessel had been rebuilt with fifteen years, but was not regarded safe in an exceptionally heavy sea. She carried a crow out of proportion to her size.
TWENTY-FIVE BODIES RECOVERED.
FIVE BODIES RECOVERED.
A special of Sunday from Yarmouth, N. S., says: "The shore of this county for ten miles east and west is strewn with the wreckage of the hull and cargo of the steamer City of Montréal, which foundered Saturday morning, and twenty-five bodies of victims of the disaster have been recovered from the sea, which is still raging with terrific fury. The death roll so far as known is thirty-two.
"Many people have assembled at Rockville, near where the first body came ashore, and numerous relatives of members of the crew, who nearly all belonged to points on this coast, have arrived to identify the dead. The bodies were arranged in a room in the public hall and Coroner Fuller, who held an inquest, gave an opinion of accidental drowning. All the bodies are terribly battered.
"The first body was found at daylight, when the zino lifeboat, which was supposed by the survivors of the first boat to have been swamped, was discovered on the shore. A few yards distant, were the bodies of Mr. Eldridge, a passenger; Second Engineer Poole, Mr. Fripp, a traveler for McGee's Sons, of St. John, and the body of a seaman. All four had life belts around them.
"At short intervals along the b each eleven more bodies were found, making fifteen found up to noon to lay. They had all evidently some ashrora in the life-boat and were killed on striking the beach, not one escaping.
"It is a coincidence that the ship Peter Stewart was wrecked off this shore a few years ago in the month of July and a boat load of men came in where the Monticello's boat was found. Half of the men were dead before the boat touched the land."
GEORGIA IN SECOND PLACE.
She stands Next to Pennsylvania In Increase of Railway Mileage.
That Georgia is rapidly coming to the front in railroad circles is shown by the fact that during the past ten years the state has been second only to Pennsylvania in increase of mileage. The present mileage is 5,598, an increase of 1,329 miles. The mileage of Pennsylvania is 10,130, an increase of 1,729, the largest increase made by any state. This shows Georgia second only to Pennsylvania in mileage, the increase being only 400 miles less.

ALABAMA LEGISLATURE.
Both Houses Organized For Business—Governor's Installation
Is Temporarily Postponed.
The Alabama legislature convened in Montgomery Tuesday at noon.
After effecting permanent organization, the two houses met in joint session and canvassed the vote of the recently elected, declaring the following to have been elected to the respective state offices:
Governor William J. Samford, of Lee; secretary of state, Robert P. McDavid, of Montgomery; treasurer;
J. Craig Smith, of Dallas; auditor, T. L. Sowell, of Walker; attorney general, Charles G. Brown, of Jefferson, superintendent of education, John W. Abercrombie, of Calhoun.
The canvass of the vote on the first day of the session is a novelty in Alabama legislation, but the declaration of the result of Colonel Samford's election was esteemed to be a step toward perfecting the title of the president of the senate to succession in the event of the death of the governor-elect and the majority of the members of both bodies is determined that Governor Johnston shall not hold over, if it is possible to prevent. It was intended that a joint committee of both houses should be sent to Opelika at once to inform the governor-elect of his nomination and cause the oath of office to be administered to him in their presence, but Colonel Samford's son declined to permit any committee to see or communicate with his father and this part of the programme had to be dispensed with.
Hon. William D. Jelks, the bright newspaper man from Barbour, was elected president of the senate and and governor-in-prospect of Alabama, and Hon. F. L. Pettus, of Dallas, retiring president of senate, was elected speaker of the house. The governor's message was sent in and read and after counting the vote and appointing the joint committee as indicated, adjourned to Wednesday The governor's message claims that all difficult has disappeared during this administration, the credit of the state is at the highest point in its history, not a dollar has been borrowed in four years and all claims paid preemptly in the last three years.
The convict department pays $850,000 annually, the school fund has doubled, many acres of land have been reclaimed, crime has diminished, the militia is in fine condition, pensions doubled and wayward children being rescued.
WILL CABINET REMAIN INTACT?
President Invites all the Members to Stay With Him Next Term.
At a cabinet meeting Tuesday President McKinley announced clearly and forcefully to the members his desire that they should all remain with him during the four years of his coming administration. His wishes were made known in an extended speech at the meeting in the white house Tuesday. Responses were made by all of the members present, and while there was no definite pledge from any of them that they would accept the portfolios thus tendered afresh, there was, on the other hand, no definite collation.
The wishes of the president in the matter was set forth and relieves the members of the cabinet of the customary obligation of tendering their resignations at the end of the term, unless they have made an irrevocable decision that it will be impossible for them to continue in office. The president's move sets at rest all speculation and slate-making of the country's political prophets, for it is understood generally that there is but one doubtful factor in the homegeneity of the present cabinet. That factor is Attorney General Griggs, as he holds his present position at a great financial sacrifice. Still Mr. Griggs replied in terms of warm appreciation to the complimentary remarks of the president and voiced no intention of retiring.
EMPRESS DEAD ONCE MORE.
Reports of Her Demise Still Circulated Int are Unconfirmed.
Advices from Pekin state that reports of the death of the dowager emress are persistent, though there is no official confirmation of them, communication with the court being very irregular. There is a growing belief, however, that she will never return to Pekin.
BANK LOSES HEAVILY.
Nashville Has Sensation of First Magnitude—Clerk Is Implicated.
The arrest of T. P. Brady upon a federal warrant sworn out by F. O. Watts, cashier of the First National bank, has stirred up a sensation in Nashville, Tenn. The firm of Connor & Brady, composed of J. H. Connor and T. P. Brady, wholesale grocers and liquor dealers, made an assignment Monday and the arrest of Brady followed. In this connection the disappearance last July of W. W. Lea an individual bookkeeper of the First National bank, is explained. The two are charged with collusion, in defrauding the bank out of $44,000.
SAVANNAH. GA. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 17. 1900
TREASURY REPLETE
The Annual Report of United States Treasurer Roberts.
INFLUX OF REVENUES BREAKS RECORD
Amount Taken In the Largest In History of the Country For the Fiscal Year Just Come to a Close.
A Washington special says: The annual report of the treasurer of the United States, Ellis H. Roberts, on the operations and condition of the treasury, was submitted to Secretary Gage Monday. Mr. Roberts says the growth and prosperity of the country and the general activity of business are reflected in the transactions of his office.
The net revenues of the government for the fiscal year were $567,240,852, the largest in the history of the country, exceeding those of 1866, the next highest, by $47,291,888. The increase of $51,280,382 over the preceding year was contributed from all the general sources, but chiefly from customs and internal revenue. ( On the side of the expenditures there was a net decrease of $117,358,388 in comparison with 1899, so that the deficiency of $9,111,560 for that year was converted into a surplus of $79,527,060 in 1900.
Promptly on the enactment of the new financial law the divisions of issue and redemption therein provided for were established, and to them were transferred the records and accounts relating to the issue and redemption of United States, gold certificates, silver certificates and currency certificates. Up to October 1, 1900, $22,530,854 in United States notes and $3,594,708 in treasury notes were redeemed in gold out of the reserve fund of $150,000.
Each day the notes so redeemed were exchanged for gold from the general fund, so that the reserve was kept intact in amount and character. Besides this reserve fund, the trust fund, consisting of gold coin, silver dollars and bullion and United States notes held for the redemption of certificates and treasury notes, amounted, on the day the act became a law, to $723,069,283, and increased by November 1, 1900, to $740,965,679.
The aggregate amount of money of all kinds in circulation on October 1, 1900, is estimated at $2,113,294,983, an increase of $180,810,744 in fifteen months, of which $94,440,930 was due to the enlarged use of gold and gold certificates. The increase per capita was from $25.38 to $27.01. The per capita of gold at the latter date was $10.50, which is greater than that of all the currency in 1862, while the total of gold is greater than all the circulation at any time previous to July, 1879.
On October 1st 39.24 per cent of the total circulation was in gold and gold certificates 26.45 in silver dollars, silver certificates and treasury notes, 15.36 per cent in United States notes and 15.11 per cent in national bank notes. It is a significant comparison that on June 30, 1890, the percentage of United States notes was 22.58. Two years earlier it was as high as 32.07. While the volume of United States notes, treasury notes and silver certificates is limited by statutory provisions, the stock of gold is constantly growing. The metallic stock of money is estimated for October 1, 1900, as $1,059,298,820 in gold, $566,355,367 in silver dollars and bullion and $86,000,748 in fractional silver coin, an aggregate of $1,711,644,935.
LITTLE MOROCCO DEFIANT.
Refuses to Meet Demand of the United States For Indemnity.
A Washington special says: The government of Morocco has again declined to meet the demand of the United States for the payment of an indemnity on account of the killing by a mob of Marcus Essagin, a naturalized American citizen.
The last request was made by United States Consul Cummere, and the latest declination of the government of Morocco was accompanied by an intimation of its freedom from liability under the terms of the convention between Morocco and Spain.
The state department has concluded that the consul's representations will be more effective if he is supported morally by the presence in Morocco waters of a United States warship, and it is probable that he will make his visit to Fez to again present the case as passenger on a vessel to be elected by the navy department for that purpose.
Buller In London.
General Buller, accompanied by his wife and daughter, arrived in London Monday and reported to the war office. Large crowds which had assembled at the Waterloo station and in Pall Mall cheered the general.
After American Money.
A syndicate of Danish and Swedish bankers has begun negotiations with American bankers for a $15,000,000 loan for the Copenhagen municipality.
ROBINSON IS NAMED
As Adjutant General of Georgia By Governor Candler.
PHIL. G. BYRD RESIGNS THE PLACE.
Colonel Robinson Is Well Equipped to Fill the Position, Being Thoroughly Conversant With Military Affairs.
Colonel James W. Robertson, of Marietta, has been appointed by Governor Candler adjutant general of the state of Georgia to succeed Phill G. Byrd, who tendered his resignation on account of ill health. Adjutant General Phil Byrd's resignation is to take effect December 1st, and on that day Colonel Robertson will assume the duties of his new position.
Colonel Robertson is one of the best known men in Georgia, with a thorough knowledge of military affairs which amply fits him for the place. His appointment will be learned with pleasure by many who know him. In his resignation Adjutant General Byrd gave two reasons for his step, poor health and business interests, which would require for a time his presence in Central America. He thanks Gov. Candler for the marked degree and many evidences of confidence reposed. Following is the official order appointing Colonel Robertson to the post of adjant general. The order was issued Monday morning:
November 12, 1900.—Whereas a vacancy will exist in the office of adjutant general and keeper of public buildings and grounds, on the first day of December, 1900, by reason of the resignation of Phil G. Byrd this day tendered and accepted, to take effect on the said day of December.
It is therefore ordered, That James W. Robertson, of the county of Cobb, be and he is hereby appointed adjutant general and keeper of public buildings and grounds for a term of three years from the said first day of December, 1900. A. D. CANDLEE,
James W. Robertson was graduated at South Carolina military academy November, 1850. He was civil engineer from 1850 to 1852. In the latter year he was elected commandant of the Georgia military institute, at Mariette, Gn. He resigned this position after two years to again take up civil engineering. In 1858 Colonel Robertson was elected superintendent of the military academy of LaGrauge, Ala. In the civil war Colonel Robertson took a prominent part and was engaged in many noted battles.

IMPORTANT CABINET MEETING HELD
The Chinese Question Is Brought Up and
Fully Discussed In All, of
Its Phases.
A Washington special says: Two
of the three hours that Friday's cabinet session consisted of were occupied in a discussion of foreign affairs, necessitated in part by the fact that the president intends to exhaustively treat on this subject in his forthcoming message to congress.
Reference was made to the expressions in portions of the European press that the United States policy regarding China would undergo marked change immediately after the election, and it is authoritatively announced that after a most exhaustive review of every step of the Chinese difficulty, from its inception up to the present moment, delivered by Secretary Hay, the cabinet ratified every detail and moreover unanimously expressed its judgment that the policy so far pursued should be continued without change to its logical conclusion.
Accordingly the present legation guard at Pekin will be maintained and such troops as yet remain to be withdrawn, according to the original programme, will be shipped to Manila. With this addition to his force, General MacArthur is expected to renew the campaign against the rebellious Filipinos with the greatest energy. Administration officials here think that as soon as the result of the election becomes known throughout the Philippines, the resistance to the authority of the United States will be overcome.
BEEF GOES AWAY UP.
Chicago Packing Company Has Advanced Prices More Than Ten Per Cent.
A Chicago special says: A flat increase of 1 cent a pound was put on beef, pork and mutton Friday by Chicago packers. In one year the additional cent will yield to the Chicago packers, basing the estimate upon last year's business, the following sums:
Dressed beef, $15,000,000; dressed pork and pork products, $20,000,000; mutton, $4,000,000. Total addition to incomes, $39,000,000.
Retailers of meats were thrown into a panic by the unexpected rise in prices. In the adjustment of prices to the consumers, choice cuts of beef have gone up as much as 5 cents, pork tenderloin jumped to the same extent, and mutton chops went up 3 cents. The advance by the packers is more than 10 per cent on the price of meat the day before the election. The advance by the retailer to the consumer will average 25 per cent.
The packers claim they have been selling dressed meats at a loss for several years. In six months the price of meat stuffs has gone up $2.50 per hundred pounds. There has been no corresponding advance in the price of cattle, hogs and sheep.
Reports of the packers in charge of the dressed meat department says the advance was justified by the condition of the trade, and imposition on the heels of the election is but a coincidence.
BIG BLAZE IN BILOXI
Mississippi Town Almost Wiped Out of Existence By Flames.
Biloxi, Miss., situated in the Mississippi sound, eighty miles from New Orleans, was swept by a terrific fire Friday morning which destroyed upwards of 100 buildings and rendered hundreds of people homeless.
Biloxi is a town of 7,000 people and a well known summer resort for Mississippi and Louisianaians and a winter resort for northerners. It has a small fire department and contains many frame buildings, and the fire simply burned until it had nothing further to feed on.
The total loss is estimated at $300,000 with $125,000 insurance.
AS A TRIBUTE TO SHERMAN
Republican Campaign Work In Ohio Was
Stopped Thursday.
The Republican campaign in Ohio
was at a standstill Thursday as a tribute
of respect to the memory of Hon.
John Sherman, whose funeral occurred
at Mausfield in the afternoon.
The order of Secretary Dick, of the
Republican state executive committee
is regarded as unique in the political
annals of Ohio, but all meetings were
either declared off or postponed, and
the political opponents of the parly
had the field, to themselves for the day.
The state offices in the capital build-
ing were closed during the afternoon.

M'ARTHUR REPORTS
Shows Status of Military Affairs In Philippine Islands.
OUR CASUALTIES FOR NINE MONTHS.
Americans Lose Over a Thousand In Killed, Wounded and Captured—Kilipinas Lose Nearly 7,000.
Major General Arthur MacArthur, commanding the United States forces in the Philippines and military governor of the islands, has submitted his report to the war department.
Every question in the Philippines is treated, and the inference drawn by many of those at headquarters is that if the United States are to conquer the Philippines it must be by sheer force of arms.
While, according to the report, Aguinaldo and his band voted to discontinue war November 12th, 1899, as a matter of fact it continued. By their ability to doff the habiliments of war and assume the garb of peace, Filipinos have successfully kept in the field, but at a tremendous loss. Fifty-three stations occupied by Americans on November 1st, 1899, had on September 1st, 1900, expanded to 413. While the Americans had lost 1,073 in killed, wounded and captured, the Filipinos had lost 6,785. The report says:
"The Filipinos are not a warlike or ferocious people. Left to themselves, a large number would gladly accept the American supremacy, which they are gradually coming to understand means individual liberty and absolute security in their lives and property." General McArthur says the extensive distribution of troops has strained the soldiers of the army to the full limit of endurance. He says the apparent desultory work has demanded more of discipline and as much of valor as was required during the period of regular operations against concentrated field forces of insurrectionists. General McArthur's report says that the troops amidst all labors and hardships are content.
The Filipinos, the report says, left to themselves would gladly accept the American supremacy. The Americans are making as many friendly overtures as is compatible with the conditions.
MCARTHUR TO TAKE THE FIELD.
A Washington special says: In pursuance of the plan to make an aggressive campaign in the Philippines during the winter, it has been arranged that Major General McArthur shall personally direct the military operations against the insurgents: While he is in the field Major General Bates will be assigned to duty in Manila, as executive head of the military government of the island. General MacArthur does not propose to lay himself open to the criticism which was made against his predecessor, General Otis, who occupied himself with office details while his subordinates led the fighting. General MacArthur's determination to lead the troop, himself is warmly approved by the president and the secretary of war.
SCHOONER WRECKED.
Six of Those Aboard, Including Two Women, Perished Miserably,
A Boston special says: The three-masted schooner Myra B. Weaver was wrecked in Vineyard sound early Saturday morning and six lives were lost. The names of those who perished are: Captain R. S. Vannaman, of Philadelphia, aged about thirty-five.
Steward William Petersen, married, realding in New Orleans.
Charles Magnussen, single, of Bergen, Norway.
John Hejman, of Aland, Finland.
Miss Mary Emerson, aged about twenty-three, of Mobile.
Miss Ella Doboe, aged fifteen, also of Mobile.
Miss Emerson was a sister-in-law of the captain and Ella Doboe was her niece. The details of the disaster were learned upon arrival at Boston Saturday afternoon of the City of Macon, Captain Savage, which rescued four survivors. The Weaver left Fernandina, Fla., October 16th with a cargo of Jumbar.
WAR REVENUE TAXES.
Ways and Means Committee To Consider Matter of Their Reduction.
Representative S. E. Payne, of New York, chairman of the ways and means committee and Republican leader of the house and had a conference with the president Friday. Later in the day Mr. Payne said he would call a meeting of the Republican members of his committee for November 26th, to outline a partial programme for legislative work in the house during the approaching session.
One of the matters which will come before this meeting will be the proposed reduction in the war raising taxes.

seema that the undoubted trend of

difrauchisement of the Negro voters:

An article written by the gentlemed
of the House from Washington is
very unpalatable ta the sacrifice of
‘the Negro suffrage. It tirges the law
makers of this state to take pattern
after the four southern atates which
| have sucked the Negro suffrage with
| that heedlees and tarighteous meas-
ure tuken to accomplish the end of
the unfavorable designs. It is claim-

that the Constiagtion framed by ons

Mr. Carter was a Savannahian and well-known. In his earlier life he was among a class of young men who was very popular in the city and added much to the social sphere at that time.
He has been married a number of years, and a loving wife. Mrs Anna Carter, two daughters, Misses Sarah A. and Josephine F. Carter, a son, a brother, and other relatives survive him.
He was a member of Hilton Lodge No. 2, of Masons, Armour Lodge No 1884, of Odd-Fellows. These institutions tendered the last bad rites over his remains.
The funeral services took place at St. Philips A. M. E. Church, and the pastor, Rev. C. C. Cargile, officiated. The church was crowded with sorrowing friends. The services were pathetic throughout and the sympathizing tears were many. The bereaved family has the sympathy of the entire community.
MR. PRINCE ROGERS.
Mr Prince Rogers died on Wednesday morning last. He was a very old gentleman. The funeral took place on Thursday afternoon. He was an honorary member of the Chatham Light Infantry, a detachment of which escorted the remains to the cemetery where the usual rollies were fired, and taps sounded. Mr. Rogers leaves a widow and relatives.
MR. ALEX GUNN.
Mr. Alex Gunn died on Saturday last, and was buried on Sunday. He was a very old citizen being nearly ninety years of age. He is known by all the older citizens. In his younger days he was a man of some means and very popular in the circle which he moved. He was connected with some of our oldest families.
Hear a Noted Preacher.
Savannahians will have an opportunity of hearing the Rev. Charles M. Sheldon to-morrow. Rev Sheldon through his writings and natural ability has attained a world reputation. Some months ago he edited a paper for a week in Topeka, Kansas, as "Christ would." He is the author of the book "In his steps," and other religious writings of much note. He is the pastor of one of the most flourishing Congregational churches in the West.
Rev. Sheldon has displayed sincere friendship for our people in many ways. The proceeds from the paper he edited, alluded to above, were devoted to the advancement of a colored neighborhood near his home. His friendship has been manifested in other ways.
He will preach at the white churches to-morrow morning and evening. In the afternoon at 3:00 o'clock he will speak at the Second Baptist church. Rev J. J. Durham, D. D, pastor. This will be an excellent opportunity to hear this distinguished and able divine, and our people should show their appreciation of his good will to toward them by crowding the church to its utmost capacity.
Preparing For the Rally.
The members of the Second Baptist Church are in the midst of a spirited contest for the rally which takes place on the first Sunday in December. The membership of the church is divided into clubs and each club is pledged to a raise a certain amount. The clubs are determined to raise this amount and more too and the real contest comes as to which one will raise the largest amount. It is real interesting to note the great earnestness in which many of the members and leaders of the clubs are working. As the time draws near for the rally the more exciting the contest will be, and the friends of the church will wait with much interest the result. This Church is a power for good in our community and hence the citizens at large, are always interested in whatever it undertakes.
Weed the Traitors Out.
The Republican Executive Committee of Chatham county held a well attended meeting on Wednesday last. Matters of importance relative to the party's workings were discussed and plans perfected by which the organization of the county will be augmented by a large number of registered voters. The traitors to the party were censured and a committee was appointed to look into certain charges preferred against party members for treachery. The two men who falsely swore out warrants for the arrest of three of the party leaders were maligned in the strongest terms.

Bryan’s State Claimed By Re
publicans by Small Majority.
A HOT CONTEST IN KENTUCKY
Republicans Git Apoesi to Courts
According to Statement of
Chairman Combs,
With unofficial returns from evory
rrecinct in Kentucky, The Courier.
Journal puts Bryan's majority at 7,635
aud Beckham's at 4,110. The county
board canvassed the returns in every
county in the state today and the fifty
counties out of 119 in the state whose
official returns had been received tc-
night did not materially change the
majorities gives in the foregoing,
though there is no donbt that the fall
official returns will vary ‘somewhat
from the unofficial figures. It ié hard-
ly possible that majorities of 7,035 and
4,110 shall be wiped out, however, un-
jess the unexpected should happen in
tlie counties whose officials returns are
not jo,”
Cheirman Leslle Combs, of the Re-
publican state campaign committee,
said he wished to state his position as
to contests and correct some erroneous
impressions, He does not want,to be
understood as saying authoritstively
that the Kentncky election will be
contested. He says he will advise
with thé national and state leaders as
to whether or not contests should be
made.
He does not say that contests will
be made over the third, ninth and
tenth congressional districts, but eays
that if his ioformation about the elec-
tion in those districts is correct, con-
testsshould be made. He is in favor
of contesting the electoral vote of the
state, not because Kentucky's yote.is
needed by the McKinley electors, but
forn precedent,
“Jf we allow thié election to pasa
uncontested,” says Chairman Combs,
‘we only foster more franda for the
fature,
“There is no question but what, if
the face of the returns fail to show
Yerkes's election, we can make specific
exposures that will show he has been
defeated, not by a majority of the
voters of Kentucky, but by the fraud-
ulent use of the advantage given the
Democratic party by the Goebel elec-
tron lave,"
It is currently reported in Louis-
ville that the Republican managers
are in communication with federal
officials with @ view 0 having an in-
vestigation of theelection in this state
co faras the electors and congress-
meu are concerned. It is stated that
this would indirectly have some effect
on the claims for governor. The only
state vflicer voted for this year was
that of governor, to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of William Goe-
bel, who succeeded in the contest
vith W. 3. Taylor. |
The other state offeers hold over
ander the contests settled in the |
rourts last spring. The ballots, thero-
fore, contained the names of thirteen
electors on each of the five state tick-
etx and only one name each for a state
officer, that of governor. It is stated
that the investigation will be made for
contests in two or three congressional
districts, and that it will be extended
into certain counties not in the con-
ested districts. Republican managers
bave already communicated with Ne-
‘ional Chairman Hanna regarding the
situation.
