Marquette, Mich., Nov. 5.—Follow- fnga trivial family quarrel, Jobn Link, well-to-do farmer, went into & field, seated himself on two sticks of dynamite and lit the fuse. A searching party to-day gathered up his remains in baskets. I must decline to discuss my presi- ~ dential candidacy,” said Mark Hanna to-day, and the senator accentuated the words “at this time.” “The re- sult of the election in Ohio and Cleve- land merely shows that the people have repudiated Tom Johnson and all he s.ands for, and all his meth- ods.” The senator could not conceal his delight at the overwhelming victory 1e Republican party in Obio, and « kept busy all afternoon opening and answering telegrams of congrat- ulations. The Press, an independent paper, this afternoon says: “The boom for Hanna is in full swing. Although times innumerable he has announced he would not be a candidate in op- position to Roosevelt, but the ball has been started rolling, and if the old standbys can keep it going they will do so.” A Washington dispatch to the Press says: ‘‘The presidents friends are alarmed. He has shown a lam- entable weakness in his home etate. With New York a pivotal state inthe coming contest for 1904, there are already predictions that the Repub- : licans must look for another candi- | dateif they care to win in thecoming contest. Their eyes are on Hanna. New Haven Judge Hands Dowa De- cision Regarding Property of Late Philo Bennet. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 6.—Judge Livingston Cleveland in the probate court this morning rendered a deci sion in the matter of admission to probate of the will of the late Philo 8. Bennet of this city, in which $50, 000 is given to W. J. Bryan, partly to his family and partly to himeelf Judge Cleveland in summarizing said: “As to the question as to whether the will was properly executed there was no claim that the testator lacked testamentary capacity. I find he had sufficient testamentary capacity. It was claimed by opponents of the will that there was undue influence exercised by Bryan. I find there was no undue influence. The claim was made that the so- called sealed letter should not be incor porated Into the will to become a part thereof, I find that whatever the law may be as to the introduc- tion of an unattested Instrument into a will by reference, or whether the reference in the will was sufficient with reference to the instrument to Shoal Water and Spouts Up Tons of Mud. cei ee ae New York, November 7.—For what _ poleogt cntigien gg was said to be the first time in fifteen 5 ; years & whale came inside Sandy} in a severely unpretentious house, Hook to day.

The claim of counsel for the pro- ponents was that even if the letter was not in existence until after the drafting of the will, the fact thata typewritten draft letter was tn exist- ence before the drawing of the wili ought to be considered in support of the contention that the paper was part of the will.

Mrs. Amis, as May Lucille Leaton, figured in @ sensational breach of promisesuit at Washington, in which Senator Sullivan was defendant, and this suit is the outgrowth.

After threats to force a compro- mise, as she alleges, the case was dis missed, and she came to Memphis, and itis alleged that her dischargeas asaleslady was brought about by libelous charges.

Declares Missouri Senator Would Arouse the West to the Highest Pitch of Excitement. Washington, Nov. 7.—“The people of Missouri,” said Colonel Moses C. Wetmore, of St. Louie, “are abso- lutely in earnest in their desire to make Senator Francis M. Cockrell the nominee of the Democratic party in the coming presidential struggle. “T want to make my meaning clear in this matter,’ he continued. “I was for Mr. Bryan heart and soul, but, recognizing now that he is no longer to be considered as a candi- date, I have espoused the cause of one of the ablest statesmen and one of the noblest characters in public life. “In point of fitness for the great office and in accurate knowledge of the workings of this Government, Senator Cockrell has scarcely an equal. Hisnomination would arouse the West to the highest pitch of en- thusiasm and I believe that he can be elected. There are already suresigns of renewed life in the Democratic par- ty and what we have just heardfrom New York and Maryland imbues us with courage for 1904. “The objection may be made that Senator Cockrell fought for the Con- f y.

One of the interesting sights to be seen along the Chester (Pa.) pike is the ruin of the old Plummer’s meeting house, near Crum Lynne station, on the Pennsylvania railroad. Half a century ago the edifice was a prominent meeting place for the fol- lowers of Frederick Plummer, who ex- erted a wonderful influence among the countryfolk for miles around. The tottering old vine-clad wall {s the last vestige of this denomination, which began to lose its strength after the death of Plummer, who was the elder pastor of a Free Christian church in Philadelphia. In the rear of the ruins is an unnsed eemetery. The only living heir to the ground occupied by the ruins and the cemetery {s Franklin Parsons, of Glen- olden, who is an agile nonagenarian. Mr. Parsons was a local minister for many years and was a member of the Plummer meeting house.
