Their Purpose to Give Senior Senator Ohio's Vote in Next National Convention. Si<clal Dispatch to The Evening Star. CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 9.—There is an interesting chapter in Ohio political his- tcry being made just now. It is nothing more or less than a movement to giv2 the vote of the buckeye state in the republican convention of 140 te Senator Foraker in- stead of President McKinley. This mov2- ment is, of course, backed by Kurtz and McKirson. Just now the political eyes of the state are centered on the contest over council- men in this city. The republicans are lined up as Hanna and anti-Hanna men. The result here will indicate who will control the coming stat> convertion. If McKisson wins, it is predicted that the anti-Hanna men will be able to control the Cuyahoga county delegation to the state convention. The five large cities of the state—Cleve- land, Cincinnati, Columbus, Toledo and Dayton—are now claimed by the anti- Hanna crowd with great confidence. Con- servative men are inclined to believe that there is not much doubt about Columbus, the home of Kurtz; Toledo, the home of Griffin, and Dayton, where “Doc.” Low, the Foraker man, is supreme. The result in Cincinnati depends in a large degree upon the result of the effort to get the old Cox faction in line for Foraker and Kurtz. If this is done, all doubt as to who is to control the republican politics of Hamilton county will moved, anti-Hanna men, and Mayor Mc serts that he will carry this city at the spring election. The Kurtz men are predicting a new line- up of forces, and they will, if they see the state is likely to go democratic, hold them- selves in reserve until a year from next fall, then they will make a big fight to st the republican organization from a, nominate an anti-Haana man for and an entire anti-Hanna_ ticket. They will start the work of capturing the state for Foraker for President in 100. In the meantime, if the effort to oust Hanna from his senatorial seat avails nothing, it is the plan to make McKisson the anti- Hanna candidate for governor of Ohio. ees BUILDING TRADES COUNCIL. Organization Gives a Spoker Suc- ceeding Its Business Session. The Building Trades Council held a short business session last evening, most of the time being devoted to a “smoker.” At the meeting delegates from the Tin- ners’ Union were admitted. Immediately upon adjournment the doors were thrown open and a large’ number of visiting members of trades union organiza- tions were admitted to participate in the social festivities. Richard Lanis, president of the B. T. C., presided and made an ad- dress, as did also J. P. Healey, second vice president of National Building Trades Council; former President Spohn of the Central Labor Union; George Hanigan of the Mule Spinners’ Association, New Bed- ford, Mass. ers William Marsh of the Plumb- and Gas Fitters’ Association, and ers. Music was furnished by Prof. Weber's orchestra. Among the prominent labor men present, besides those named, were: N. C. Sprague, president of the Central Labor Union Waldron, secretary of Local Card and er Room Operators, New Bedford, Mass. William Maghan, president of the Brick- layers’ Unton; J. J. Crowley, secretary of the Central Labor Union, and J. M. Kreiter of Columbia Typographical Union. MOUSLY. DO Available lor Nattonal Defense. The vote by which the bill appropriating $50,000,000 for the national defénse passed the House yesterday was 313 to 0. Forty- four gentlemen were absent. They were placed on record, however, by their col- leagues. While the absentees numbered forty-four, those accounted for numbered sixty-five. This resulted from the anxiety of their fricnds to put them in the Record, and one absentee would be recorded by several of his colleagues The bill was carried immediately to the Senate, and referred to the committee on appropriations. Besides the $50,000,000 item, the bill in- cluded several cther items, as follows: Priating and binding for the Navy De- partment, $10,000; printing and binding for the Department of Justice, $4,000; printing and binding for the Department of State, $12,000; printing and binding for the De- partment of the Interior, $40,000; bureau of medicine and surgery, naval establishment, $10,000; bureau of equipment, naval estab- lishment, $100,000; bureau of ordnance, na- val establishment, $7,000. The total of the items was $50,183,000. ———— LIVE STOCK ON FARMS. Interesting Statement by Agricultaral Department. The Agricultural Department has issued the following bulletin on live stock: “The returns of the number of live stock on farms in the Unitsd States on January 1 show there to have been 13,960,911 horses, 2,257,665 mules, 15,840,886 milch cows, 29,- 204,197 oxen and other cattle, 37,656,000 sheep and ‘39,750,983 swine. These figures show a d2crease of 404,756 in the number of horses, 100,841 in that of milch cows, 1,244,211 in that of oxen and other cattle, 840,283 in that of swine. On the otker hand, there !s an increase of 838,317 in the number of sheep and 42,011 in that of mules. “While ther? has been an ‘ncrease in the number of milch cows in each of the New England states, and a somewnat consider- able increase in the northwestera states, there has b2en a decrease throughout al- most the entire south, and this fact, to- gether with a slight decrease in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Llitois, reduces the total for the country at large to six-tenths of 1 p2r cent below that of last year. Of the seventeen states reporting a total of over one mullion of hegs, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Georgia, Mis- scuri, KanSas and Nebraska show an in- crease, and Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and eight south2rn states a decrease. “There is a marked increase In the value of Jive steck on farms repor:ed from most every section of the country, the to- tal value of farm hvrses having incr2ased during the year by $25,713,011; that of mules, $6,729,972: of milci: cows, $65,573,833; of oxen and other cattle, $104,367,213; of sheep, $25,700,191, and of swine, $8,078,639 — @ total increase in velue of $26,162,859, or 14.27 per cent. ——____+ e+-_____ THE PACIFIC CABLE BILL. An the Mensure Agreed on by~the House In- terstate Committec. The Pecific cable bill has h2en agreed on in the House committee on interstate and forzign commerce. It provides for the con- struction of a cable from San Francisco to Japan via the Hawailan Islands, and grants an annuity of $100,000 for twenty PENSION CERTIFICATES More Developments in the Investigation Going On. Using Certificates Loans—The Big Interest Charged —Different Plans. Some of the developments in the investi+ fation now going on to determine the ex- tent of the practice of borrowing money on Pension certificates expose outrageous im- Positions upon the pensioners, Examiner Connolly, who has charge of the investigation, returned from Baltimore this morning, where he had been conduct~ ing a raid similar to the one outlined in The Sta? several days ago. He raided two attorneys and captured eight certificates in one place and three in another. He also released from actual bondage an old pen- sioner who had been kept a prisoner fe fifteen months. The case was a particular- ly sad one, and shows to what ends the money sharks will resort to fleece the poe pensioners. Fifteen months ago a pen: sioner, whose name is withheld, applied to an attorney in Baltimore for a small loan. He was asked if he had his pension certificate with him, and he gnswered by producing the document which recognizes him as a ward of Uncle Sam. The attor- ney took it and advanced the small loan, adding he could come to his he board. Secing other old soldiers soen became a member of the household, where he has been kept a prisoner for fif- teen months, being permitted to go out only once every three months to certify to his voucher, and directing the office where to send the check. When the check ed the Shylock would compel him dorse it, and then handing him one or two dollars at the utm k the balance, adding that the remainder was for his meals and lodging. The soldier was eligt- ble for the Soldiers’ Home in this city and tried by every conceivable means to get there. But the money lender, like a leech, hung on to him and drained every cent he could from him. His practice was to kee} the men and by feecing them and sel old second-hand clothing to them virtually draw the little money that the government gave them each quarter. According to the testimony of this old soldier he would often be compelled to go on one meal a day in order to get a drink of whisky. Exam- iner Connolly had him released, and today he appeared at the pension of dressed in a new suit of clothes and ‘The examiner unearthed a more dangerous scheme of defrauding the pensioners than has yet been discovered. tion Saturday of one of the discovered that his c en executed on the 4th d had sworn to it that da: This could not t ai nother and far of March 4 before a not correct the certificate at that time and for a week previous had been in the posses: the pension office examiners.

He was a poor, ig- norant colored man, and had n since last summer paying this company enor- mous rates of interest. In his frank, ig- norant manner he cxplained how he had been directed to the firm and how he had explained that he wanted to borrow $15. The man told him that before he could borrow any money he would have to be- come a stockholder in the company, and that it would cost &: The shares were for $100, but that was a Mttle matter. The pensioner explained that he did not have a cent, and the broker said that made no difference, as he would advance it. This he did, at the same time han@ing the pen- sioner a little book, which, he explained, he was to bring around every pay and pay in his assessments. He took the pen- sion certificates for collateral and kept them.

E ALBERT ARRIVES, deavoring to that when PRIN Heir Apparent to Belgian Throne Reaches New York. A special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from New York yesterday says bert, heir apparent ‘of the thro: gium, arrived today on the North German Lloyd steamship Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse. He is accompanied by his aid-de- camp, Lieut. Col. Jungbluth, and Dr. Charles Melis, Belgian couri physician. The prince was given an official greeting of wel- come when the steamship arrived at quar- antine this morning by Count de Lichter- velde, Beigian minister at Washington; Henry W. T. Mail, Belgian consul in this city; Gen. Wesley Merritt and several mem- of his staff, representing the federal government. The prince replicd to their words of wel- come in excellent English, saying among other things: “I am heartily glad to be in this ‘giorious country, of which 1 have heard so much.” When the boat ran into her dock the prince stood on the bridge and bow2d and waved his handkerchief in return to the cheers of those on.the dock. He came down the gang plank in company with Count de Lichtervelde, and was driven to the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, where he will remain this evening. He wore a high hat, a fashionable euit of dark clothing and short black overcoat. He is about five fe>t eight inches in height, of bionde appear- ence and wears his hair in a pompadour fashion. It is declared that he is coming to this country to pursue studies of political econ- cmy and to inquire into our manufacturing and industrial interests. He is not in search of an American wife, for such a marriage would not be more than a mor- ganatic one. Prince Albert is twenty-two years old. He is athletic and fond of the bicycle. Ac- cording to accounts of his character, he is not the slave of th2 vices to which his royal uncle, King Leopold, is subject. His full name is Albert Leopold Clement Maria Mainrad. His mother was the Princess Maria of Hohenzollern. His paternal grand- mother was a Caughter of Louis Philippe, King of Franc>. It is said of the prince that he is finely educated und is unostentatious. His father, the Count of Flanders, possesses mauy no- ble traits which the son has inherited. The Count ef Flanders has declared that should King Leopold die before him ixe will re- linquish his claim to the throne in favor of his son. On all public occasions the Count of Flanders walks behind his son. The king always refers to the prince as his heir. It has ben stated in Brussels that when the prince returns from the United States there will be an announcement of his be- trothal to his cousin, the Princess Clemen- tine, who was engaged to his ill-fated brother, the late Prince Badouin, who was killed, according to the best accounts, by a jealous husband. Prince Albert is traveling incogaito as Prince Al- of Bal- nation in Washington. The Beigian min- ister, Count de Lichtervelde, has been in New York sev>ral days to escort Prince Albert to Washington, where he will be the minister's guest at the Normandie. Prince Albert will call upon Secretary of State John Sherman, who wiil take him to He iy H Beis ¢ i if [ hi £ : j ikF : F | f hi i ii i i
