The report shows a continuance of the Givisions month by month as the money was pald by the government from the be- ginning to the end of Carter's control at Savannah, and on this feature of the report, on says the figures show ird of the spoils to have been over $550.00, exclusive of his share in the last checks for $575,749.00, which were paid over in New York at the time Carter was about to leave the district when succeeded by Captain Gillette. Mr. Johnson's report says that Mr. West- cott in a written statement gives the gov- ernment full actess to his account in the banks and his private papers. . These show, the examiner reports, that whie Carter frequently, through Greene and the Gaynors and otherwise, made West- cott a depository of- money, In every in- stance kt was turned over or invested as Carter directed. These papers show also that when the first charge of fraud was made against Carter by the board of in- quiry Westcott refused to longer take Carter's securities. This would indicate the total loss of the wevernment of $2,000,000. -_——_+ + Lady Yarde-Buller was adjudged insane ale Franciseo and committed to @ sani- ‘um. oP , OHIO POLITICAL REVIEW ANTI-BRYANITES PLAN TO CONTROL KANSAS CITY DELEGATION. Republicans Have Nominated Four- teen Congressional Candidates— Interesting Speculation. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 30.—Only one democratic candidate for Congress has been nominated in Ohio so far. That is Robert B. Gordon, present member from the fourth district, who been nominated for a sec- ond term. John J. Lentz, in this district, will have no opposition for the nomination. The date for the close of entries has passed, and no other name was presented to the committee. The nomination is to be made by popular vote, the primary ¢ tions to be held at different dates in the d ferent counties of the district. Judge R. E. Burke of the sixth district of Texas is be- ing nominated in the same peculiar way now for a second term. Plan of Anti-Bryanites. The democrats are holding back all their primary election work for some rea: this year. The commonly accepted explana:ion is that the opponents of Bryan, in control of the party machinery in the state, wish to leave the selection of delegates to the Kansas City convention to the committees Instead of to the people of the party, be- Neving that in this way an anti-Bryan de! gation from this state can be secured. Three democratic congressional conven- |, tens have been called. These are in the etghth, at Delaware, on May 15; in the four- teenth, at Shelby, on June 7, and in the Defiance, on May 2. In only one se is there any chance to elect a dem- hat is in the fifth, represented now by David Meekison. He will probably be returned for another term. Fourteen Republican Candidates. The republicans have nominated their candidates in fourteen of the twenty-one districts, as follows: In the fourth, Edward Wright: in the fifth, F. L. Hay; in the sixth, C. Q. Hilde- brand; in the seventh, Thomas Kyle; in the eighth, W. R. Warnock; in the ninth, J. H. Southard; in the tenth, Stephen Mor- gan; in the eleventh. C. H. Grosvenor; 'n the thirteenth, D. W. Locke; in the fif- teenth, H. C. Van Voorhis; in the sixteenth, J. J. Gill; im the seventeenth, M. E. Gil- lette; in the eighteenth, R. W. Tayler, and in the twenty-first, T. E. Burton. Of these fourteen seven are new to con- gressional work. The new men are Messrs. Hay, Hildebrand, Kyle, Warnock, Locke, Gillette and Wright. Hildebrand, Kyle and Warnock only have any chance for election. Wright, Hay, Locke and Gillette are in hopelessly democratic districts. Even in a presidential year these districts are Practically certain to go democratic. Hi!- debrand defeated Seth Brown after a hard fight in the sixth, Warnock retired Repre- sentative Archibald Lybrand in the con- vention after a bitter factional fight and Kyle defeated Walter Weaver, the present representative from the seventh district, in the same way. In the fourteenth district the republicans have held one convention to nominate a candidate for Congress without success, and will meet in convention to try it again at Norwalk on May 17. Representative W. S. Kerr desires to be returned, but there is strong opposition to him. The outcome 1s doubtful. Representative Phillips will no doubt be nominated in the twentieth dis- trict in the convention set for May 10, Jas. A. Garfield having withdrawn as a candi- date for the nomination. Uneasiness Alleged. The republican state convention failed to follow the instructions of Mr. Dick, secre- tary of the national committee, in a circu- lar letter to all the state committees some months ago, to have the electoral candi- dates nominated by the state conventions, in accordance with a decision by the su- preme court of Maine concerning nomina- tions under the Australian ballot There is some uneasiness lest this may af- fect the legality of the it $9] 25 Another Carload of Grass Carpets.
