SPEECH BY J. B. FORAKER
OHIO'S SKMOH fiK.XATOR, HUTUKSS THAMvS FOIl ItU-ULECTIOS. Hrlef Hi-iirw of the Country' Condition nnd I'ahllc Qnfillorm Motrrary'a Title .Made Clear. COLUMBCtf. O.. Jan. 13. -What interest was lacking In the present session of .the Ohio Legislature was full ymade up Wednesday morning at the time fixed for the formal re-election of Joseph R. Foraker to the United States Senate. There whs an hour's session of the Senate at 10 o'clock, which waa adjourned to the chamber of the House of Representatives, for the Joint section at which the ballot of yesterday taken by the separate houses waa confirmed in joint ?ess!on. Senator Foraker had practically no opposition, the division being purely partisan, the Democratic members supporting" Hon. Charles W. Baker, of Cincinnati. Every Republican present cast hU vote for Senator Foraker. The- election of Senator Foraker was purely a formal one. There were no addresses, except that of the senator, and no demonstrations, except the spontaneous applause which greeted the Senator when 'he was introduced to the General Assembly, lie said in part: "I have my fair share of enemies and detractors, as every other public man has had cince the beginning of the government, and will have until the end of time. It la not pitas. tut to have enemies, but it is a great satisfaction to be able to set down over against ail they have said or may Bay the answering fact that of all the many honor It has been my good fortune to enjoy at the hands of the Republicans of Ohio every one, without a single exception, has come to me with thin same unanimity of expreHion and most of them by acclamation and without solicitation. "Since I stood here six years ago on a similar occasion a great deal of important history hes been made. At that time the country was suffering from universal businefcs paralysis and prostration. There was a serious controversy going on as to the cause and the remedy. All agreed that prosperity should be restored; but there were wide differences as to methods. All then recognized that the first great work of the immediate future had relation to our fcconomic conditions. Time has passed. The record has been made. It is before you. It speaks for itself. My contribution may have been small, but, wnther much or little, it went to swell the grand aggregate of effort by which the greatest industrial wonders of all time have been wrought. Long vanished prosperity has returned, and never in the history of the world has there been anything like what we now enjoy. "The great industrial problem of Europe at this time is not how to sell in our markets, but how to protect their own from our commercial invasion, and one of our greatest industrial problems Is how to go on indefinitely collecting the stupendous balance of trade in our favor without bankrupting all the rest of the world and thus destroying the customers we are acquiring. "The floods of gold that are pouring in upon us are rapidly making us the great creditor nation of the earth, so that henceforth we shall hold the securities of other ptorlea and collect Interest from them on their obligations instead of. as heretofore, paying them' tribute on ours. "If nothing more than this had been accomplished it would be enough to entitle all who participated In the good work to the gratitude and the plaudits of the American people. But, great as have been these economical achievements, others there are and greater. Unexpected emergencies have arisen and unforeseen responsibilities have been laid upon us. This is not a proper time for their discussion, or even for their enumeration, but it is a fitting opportunity for the statement that all emergencies, whether cf peace or of war, have been successfully met. and all the responsibilities have been faithfully discharged. 'Grave questions of a vital character relating to our power to acquire, hold and govern territory to the necessities of the people governed have been settled for all time in favor of the authority of the United States. As a result w are to-day more than ever before In our history a world power in the fullest meaning of that phrase. In consequence, the term for which you have now reelected me will doubtless be distinguished for new problems of grave Importance and far-reaching consequences. "The interoceanic canal, our merchant marine, our navy, the government of our insular possessions, our relations with Cuba, and especially our trade relations with other commercial countries, will demand and must receive the highest and best thought of the legislative mind." The senator thanked the members for the great honor conferred and closed with a tribute to the late President McKinley and his successor, Theodore Roosevelt. This Settles the Controversy. JACKSON, Miss., Jan. 15.-J-Both houses of the Legislature to-day unanimously adopted a -resolution declaring Rear Admiral Schley to be the rightful hero of the battle of Santiago, and "entitled to the unfailing gratitude of his country."

LAWSON PUTS .UP MONEY TWO CHUCKS FOIl .3,HM EACH TO BIND TIIOTTIXG MATCHES. Boraliua and Lord Derby, nml Ilornlmu nml The Abbot to Race for $20,000 n Side This Year. NEW YORK, Jan. 15. Two checks for $5,000 each were received here late this afternoon from Thomas W. Lawson, of Boston, to close the negotiations in the talkedof race between his trotter, Boralma, E. E. Smlther's horse, Lord Derby, and The Abbot, owned by John J. Scanneil, former New York fire commissioner. This la the outcome of Mr. Lawon' original challenge to trot Boralma, 2:07, against any horse in tho world. When this challenge was made known Messrs. Smithers and Scanneil posted forfeits, and Mr. Lawson was advised of that fact. The arrangements of the two matches now stand as follows: The Boralma-Lord Derby race and the Boralma-Abbot race will be trotted som time between July 15 and Sept 1, 1902, and will be for $20,000 a side. The club which offers the largest stake will get the event, and the several matches will be decided in favor of the winner of the best three out of five heats In each case. The remainder of the side stakes Is to be posted as follows: $5.000 on signing of articles, $5,000 on the 1st of July, and the final $5,0u0 on the night before the race. Result, of Running Races.

WANT JOINT CONFERENCE. District No. 1 Miners Desire Notices Sent to Anthracite Operators. WILKESBARRE, Pa., Jan. 15. At today's sessions of the United Mine Workers' convention, district No. 1, resolutions were forwarded to the secretary of the national convention of miners, which will meet at Indianapolis next week, requesting that body to send written notices to all the operators in the anthracite region requesting them to meet the miners In joint conference to consider the grievances promulgated by the Hazelton convention. The most important of these grievances relate to an eight-hour day; coal to be mined by the ton instead of car, and recognition of the miners' union. In his annual address President Nichols urged that the suggestion made at the con1 ventlon of the American Federation of Labor at Scranton. viz.: That the smaller organizations of the same trade amalgamate with the dominant one in the community, be carried out. He said the dominant organization in the anthracite resion was the miners' union. The stationary firemen are reluctant to give up their organization and Nichols's address was a sort of an appeal to them to Join the U. M. W. h Scale Demanded. WHEELING. W. Va.. Jan. 15. At their convention in Huntington the West Virginia miners formulated a new scale which the operators will be asked to sign on April 1. The operators are invited to attend the joint conference of the workers and operators of the competitive fields nt Indianapolis the last of this month. West Virginia operators have not ben present at these conferences since 1S7. Failing to attend the Indianapolis gathering or grant the concessions asked may precipitate the greatest strike West Virginia has ever seen, for tho men are well organized, but control of the principal fields by the steel trust and railroads makes them face a complication. The scale Is lower than the Ohio rate, but coal Is sal 1 to be easier mined In West Virginia. McKinley' ANnnMslnatlon Denounced. PITTSBURG, Pa., Jan. 15 At the morning session of the bricklayers' and mason's international union. . a resolution was adopted indorsing the efforts of the civic federation to secure a settlement of al! disputes between capital and labor by arbitration. Resolutions deploring the assassination of William McKinley and denouncing the assassin, and anarchy In general were adopted. Mr. McKinley was an honorary member of the union, having been elected at the time he laid the cornerstone of the federal postofflce building in Chicago three years ago.

MULE TRANSPORT LOST
BRITISH VESSEL POSSIBLY BLOWN IP IN THE GULF BY A BOEIl SPY. Hundreds of Dead Animals Cast I'p on the Beach Near Port Eads Warship Condor Mlsslnir. NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 15. It Is believed in shipping circles here that a British transport laden with American mules bound for South Africa has been either intercepted and blown up by a Boer spy in the Gulf of Mexico or has foundered. A schooner arriving on the lower coast reports hundreds of dead mules floating for a distance of thirty miles. The more conservative elements attribute the floating carcasses to a disaster to one of the British vessels during the storms that have been raging near the coast this week. Dispatches from Quintana, Tex., which is only a short distance south of Port Eads, says that the schooner Olga has put in Matagorda bay to shelter from the fierce gale blowing on the gulf and that Captain George Peterson reports having seen long rows of dead cattle and mules floating In the water. He describes the range of the dead bodies as covering at least thirty miles. Matthew Warriner, of the Elder-Dempster Steamship Company, which turnlRhes many of the British transports, states that all their transports have been accounted for, except one sailing from here three days ago. They had heard nothing from her. The recent attempt to blow up the British transport Mechanician in this port is recalled by those perEons who incline to the opinion that a British transport has been blown up. The attempt to destroy the Mechanician was charged to Boer agents. Probably Not n Transport. GALVESTON, Tex., Jan. 15. The shipring men of Galveston do not believe that the horses and cattle reported to have been seen on the Texas coast by Captain Peterson, of the schooner Olga, were from a British transport. They say that if the transport was three days out from .New Orleans it would be near the Florida coast, and that, should any mishap befall the transport causing mules or horses to be lost, the carcasses would be taken to the Florida and not to the Texas coast, as the currents In the vicinity where the ship should be all run eastward. The Norwegian steamship Donald sailed from Galveston last Saturday evening with 192 head of horses. The Donald Is a small fruit steamer which has recently been chartered by the Nicaragua Steamship Company to be used as a banana boat between Bluefields and Galveston. It seems probable, therefore, that the horses seen on the Texas coast were lost from this ship. "WARSHIP PROBABLY" LOST. The Condor Supposed to Have Gone to the Bottom of the Pacific. VICTORIA, B. C, Jan. 15. Hope for the safety of the British warship Condor is all but abandaned. Naval men here are convinced she went to the bottom during the recent typhoon, while on her way from here to Honolulu. The Admiralty officials will dispatch the Phaeton on Saturday in search of her. The Condor was thirty-one days from here for Honolulu on Jan. 3, the date of the last mail. She left here Dec. 2, on the evening of the storm in which the Collier Mattewan was lost. She may be sailing to the Islands, however, as warships often do, and with scant canvas and without her propeller working she would be delayed. The mail at San Francisco, on Saturday, from the Islands, is anxiously awaited. The Condor Is defined In the British Admiralty list as a screw sloop. She was built at Sheerness and was launched In1SDS. She is of steel and sheathed, and her tonnage is 9S0. She 13 ISO feet long, has 33 feet beam and draws 11 feet 6 inches. Six four-inch quick-fire guns and four three-pounders constitute her armament. Her speed is thirteen knots. Her full complement of men is 130, and the last Admiralty naval list gave her the following officers: Commander, Clinton S. Clater; lieutenants, James B. Mason, Hay Withrop, and Henry V. T. Proctor; surgeon, Thomas S. Hartley: assistant paymaster, William II. Franklin; gunner, Arthur A. Burns, and engineer, George J. Dltton. She was commissioned at Chatam. on Nov. 1, 1900. and practically all of her present crew joined her at that time. Probably Perished. FORT TOWNSEND, Wash., Jan. 15. All hope that Capt. James Mclntyre and comrades, of the steamer Bristol, might yet be alive was dispelled to-day on the arrival of the steamer Cottage City from the north. Captain Wallace, who picked up the survivors, says he believes the others went down with the vessel when she slid from the reef, and even if they had got clear from the ship it would have been almost impossible for their small boat to have lived in tho sea wnicn was raging at tne time. Captain Wallace says there is only one chance cf their being alive. They may possibly have reached Tort Simpson. FIRE LOSS OF $250,000. Shirt Manufacturing Company's Plant nt St. Louis Burned. ST. LOUIS, Jan. 15. The four-story building at 40S St. Charles street, occupied by the Premium Shirt Manufacturing Company, was burned to-day and the contents destroyed, causing an estimated loss of $250,000. The loss was partially covered by insurance. Rice, Sticks & Co. owned the stock and machinery. On the former the loss was $200,000 and on the latter $20,000. The building, which was the property of Leonard Tinken, was damaged to the extent of $31.000. The firemen put forth all their efforts to keep the fire from spreading to the adjoining buildings, occupied by the Cortlcelli Silk Company, which carried a valuable stock. In this they were successful, although a nominal damage resulted to the stock of the silk company from water that leaked Jn. That company, it is Bald, had Just unpacked $150,000 worth of iew goods, on which there was no insurance. Two Children Perish. ST. LOUIS, Jan. 15. John and Henry Kander, aged respectively four and two years, sons of Stephen Kander, of East St. Louis, perished to-day as the result of the destruction of the home.

The bodies of the children were rescued from the flames by a fireman, who was almost suffocated. Fireman Fatally Injured. FOND DU LAC. Wis., Jan. 15.

Mlss Charlotte Clayton the Wife of Baron Moncheur. MEXICO CITY. Jan. 13. The marriage of Miss Charlotte Clayton, daughter of General Powell Clayton, United States ambassador, and Baron Moncheur, Belgian minister at Washington, was solemnized this morning In the private chapel of the Duchess of Mier. The ceremony was private and quiet, owing to the expressed wishes of both parties. President and Mme. Diaz were to have been present, but were prevented from attending by the death of the Mexican minister to Austria, brother-in-law of the President, whose funeral occurred to-day at Vienna. However. Hon. Ignacio Mariscal, minister of foreign relations, was present, as well as the diplomatic corps, friends In the Mexican colony and the most exclusive families of Mexican aristocracy. The rite was that of the Catholic Church, to which the bridegroom belongs. The civil ceremony, according to the Mexican law. was performed at the United States embassy this afternoon. It has created an excellent impression here that Ambassador Clayton should have complied with the Mexican law governing marriages. The witnesses were General Porfirio Diaz, President of the Republic; Hon. Ignacio Mariscal, minister of foreign relations; Baron Von Heyklng. minister of Germany; Marquis de Prat, minister of Spain; Viscount Benghel, minister of Belglum, and Judge Ignacio Speulveda. The newly-wedded couple left this evening for the hacienda of La Llavo, in the State of Queretaro. belonging to the wealthy Mexican family of Iturbide, where the first days of the honeymoon will be spent. Afterward they will return for a day to this city, and then proceed to Washington, via California, reaching Washington about Feb. 15.

GEORGE TEBEAU IN TOWN
IS CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS FOn AMERICAN ASSOCIATION. Believes Western League "Will Soon Die Out AVatklns Ridicules Whitfield's Fake Story. George Tebeau, owner of the Kansas City franchise in the American Association, was in Indianapolis yesterday in conference with Manager Watkins. Tebeau has visited nearly all the cities that comprise the American Association circuit since he left Kansas City several days ago. He is bubbling over with enthusiasm regarding the prospects for the new association next season. He canvassed the situation in Minneapolis, St. Paul and Milwaukee and says the prospect could not be better. He says Quinn, of Milwaukee, is still determined to build an expensive new park with a steel grand stand. "Quinn told that he really wants the Western League to put a club in Milwaukee," said Tebeau last night. "He believes that he could not secure better advertisement for his club than to have a ilnor league club playing in the city. In St. Paul he association magnates have secured options on ground for a new park that will be in the heart of the city. I do not see how the Western League will live until the season opens. I expect to read its obituary at any time. The Kansas City people are all with me, excepting Whitfield, sporting editor of the Kansas City Star, who happened to be elected president of the Western League to further Manning's cause. I fear no opposition In that city." Tebeau was ehown a special from Kansas City last night that read: "The Western League Is shipped already. They didn't do a thing to-day and Thursday the papers, except the Star, will say the affair was a fizzle. The league ad journed to meet in Denver, Feb. 15. It was an awful frost." Tebeau took the dispatch good naturedly, but did not show any great signs of re lief, for he said he never thought of the Western League as a competitor and was never alarmed. Watkins was apprised that Whitfield gave out a statement in Kansas City to the effect that the applicant from Indianapolis is W. H. Watkins. "That is the first time I have ever been accused of being crooked," said Watkins last night. "I never did carry water on both shoulders and never expect to, but the story that I am after a franchlne In the Western League is the worst I ever heard of. No, thank you, I have had enough of minor league ball, and I know the Indianapolis people want no more of lt. I have a franchise in the American Association and want nothing in the Western League." BASK II ALI. TRUST HISTORY. .John T. Brush Anxious for the Public to Know All. John T. Brush declares that he desires the public to know all that took place behind closed doors at the National League meeting in New York. Spalding requested the publication of the stenographic report and Mr. Brush followed this with a telegram' to Nick Young yesterday asking him if the minutes have been transcribed to wire him If they show that he presented any scheme to the league during any of its sessions which called for the formation of a baseball trust, or if they show that after he presented such a scheme he discussed it. Mr. Brush added in the telegram: "I submitted some elocumentary matter to the representatives of four clubs, after the league meeting one night, and after presenting it, asked them to look it over without prejudice until they could hear what was to be said regarding it. It was returned next morning, before the meeting convened, and never was submitted or discussed. Wire me if all the discussion regarding a baseball trust was not a recital of the Spalding scheme, of which I gave a history." Young wired back that he was almost certain Brush was right. Mr. Brush will not discuss the story emanating from Chicago to the effect that he and Freedman are to Join the American League other than to deny it. TRYING OUT AT NOHIE DAMES. Plenty of New Material from "Which to Chouse u Baseball Team. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SOUTH BEND, Ind., Jan. 15. The candidates for the track and baseball teams took their first practice for the new term In the gymnaslun yesterday afternoon. Despite the large number of candidates for the baseball team who were weeded out by Captain Lynch before the holidays there were fully thirty satisfactory ball tossers on hand yesterday to scoop up the swift bounders batted by Captain Lynch. To-day and to-morrow all thirty will be worked, and then the squad will be cut to about nineteen men, and the real hard work will begin, with at least an hour's hard practice every day. It i3 too early yet to form an estimate of the probable strength of this year's team, but, Judging from the strength of the individual candidates. Captain Lynch feels safe in predicting that the team this year will be fully up to the standard set by Notre Dame's 'varsities in years past. The track men also took light practice yesterday under Captain Herbert. The prospects in this department are not so bright, although by no means discouraging. Three of the strongest men on last year's team Corcoran in the dashes,. Eggeman in the weight events and Glynn in the pole vault and high and broad jumps have left Notre Dame, and it will be hard matter to fill their places. But several of the now men are doing surprisingly good work, especially Draper in the high jump, and a 205-pound giant named Mueller in the shot put. Klrby Is also developing rapidly into a champion shot-putter, and Richon is doing good work In the high and broad Jumps. D. K. O'Malley, the unversity strong man, has entered for the weight tvents and also for the quarter mile. O'Malley, though he weighs 225 pounds, is exceedingly active and was a fast sprinter till ho injured his knee in a football scrimmage. Ultimatum to Spalding. CHICAGO, Jan. 15.
