He at once anticipated the inter- viewer and sald: “I cannot make a polit- . lcal forecast now and you must not ask me to do so." “But you can talk about our long period of great business prosperity, senator.” “‘Bverybody knows about that. There is nothing to do or to say about it, except 10 stay right where we are,’ sald the senator. Do you think, as many do, that this country has sevéral serlous national prob- lems to encounter during the next four years, such, for Instance, as the trusts in both capital and labar, the negro question and the Filipino charges?” “In regard to all these matters, the re- publican party stands on its record. That tells the whole story of past, present and future. There are no problems except those that the democrats will endeavor to manufacture for us. They have been hunting for problems for a long time,” re- plied Mr. Hanna. “It was suggested that the administration of President Roosevelt, of itself, was not indorsed by the Ohlo republican conven. tion, except endugh to make the state con- vention appear in good form." “President Roosevelt's administration was unequivoeally irdorsed by the state conven- tion at Columbus,” declared the senator.

T don’t care to express an opinion on that." “The country has heard about yourself as a candidate, or as a vice presidential ecandidate.” “I am not a candidate for anything ex- cept senator,”” he replied. “If you are not a candidate at this time, sir, there might come a time next year when the welfare of the republican party demanded you for second place on tha idential ticket.” “I cannot talk about what the proba- bilities of the future may or may not be, 1 am not a candidate for any office except the one I have elready told you about.” YATES NOT OUT FOR ELECTION NEW YORK, June 6.—Governor Yates of Illinols salled for Europe on Umbria today.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.—Eppinger & Co., one of the largest grain dealing firms in the United States, went to the wall today. The crash came suddenly and for a time grain market. As it was, the announcce ment of the fallure caused a big bobbing of prices on 'change and wrought up such excitement as has not been witnessed on the floor for many years. It is thought that the Mabilities will run up Into the millions, while the London, Paris and American bank, the money house with which it deals, will also, it is sald, suffer heavily. Henry Ach, attorney for Eppinger & Co., said this afternoon: At a meeting of creditors held in my office it was shown by s of the firm that the liablilities were in the nelgh- borhood of $1,250,000. The assets, consist! nli principally of lands, wheat and general an rsonal property, are placed at $700,000. early all the creditors are partially or wholly secured. The failure of the Eppinger concern le the greatest and most far-reaching erash in the California grain trade since Willlam Dresbach was forced to the wall seven or elght years ago. Although there had been a whisper of uncertainty in inner circles for severai days, none of the brokers were at all prepared for the startling announce- ment, It was known that the company was short on a large amount of December wheat and the fallure at once brought about the most marked activity. Creditors of Eppinger & Co. began buying again the amount of the short account of the suspended firm, with the result that De- cember wheat quickly rose from $1.32 per cental to $1.34%. After the bulk of the pressing contracts had been filled the mar- ket weakened somewhat and the price de- clined to $§1.32%. The connections of Eppinger & Co. are numerous, both on the Pacific coast and in the grain markets of Europe.

He then shot himself in the mouth, the ball coming out in the back of the head, and fell into the creek. He is thought to have been dead before he struck the water, as no water was in the body nor was he bloated when taken out. One hand was powder burned. Before doing the act he disrobed and laid his clothes on the bank and on top of them placed his belt and scabbard. The gun was also found. In the scabbard was a note part of which was tollows “If the shot don’t prove fatal no doubt the water will." He was burled today in Rapid City.

The at the jall in which Curtis Jett and Tom White are confined. The special venir will arrive from Magofin county tomorrow and | the jury to try the alleged murderers of J. B, Marcum will be selected from the sixty men. While a murder case came to light tod: it has not diverted interest from the ap- proaching trials of Jett and White. The latest murder is that of James Gay, an aged farmer, who was shot to death in a blind tiger in Perry county Saturday. 8ince Inquests have not been held in Breathitt county for over a year the ex- citement was intense when Clinton Combe: Lee Combes, John Sendlin and Barry Size- more were arrested on the charge of mur- der. The coroner of Perry county held an inquest and on the evidence declared that the deceased came to his death from natural causes. The fact that he was shot became known to Judge Redwine who ordered an autopsy. The men accused deny the charge. It 1s sald that Gay was lying under a tree and may have been struck by a stray bul- let, as there was promiscuous shooting near the blind tiger. Until the trial of Jett and White, which will be commenced Monday, the men will occupy separate cel! They had been in the same cell since the first night after thelr incarceration here. On request D. D. Hurst, Mrs. Marcum's father, Attorney General Bard applied to Judge Redwine for the order, which was granted. After the lapse of many months Jackson is to have a coroner, Berry May having been appointed today. No Inquests have been held here in over a year, magistrates not caring to officlate. Berry May is the man who has enough courage to undertake the dutles of coroner. Robert Rose was elected years ago, but soon resigned.

The law allows any private citizen to bring a sult and recover the penalty. The sults are against K. F. Bishop, secretary of Brewer & Co., who made a trip to Korea and made the arrangements by whigh the laborers came here. Bishop carried with him written {nstructions from the United States treasury department and acted in accordance with such instructions, he claims. The 113 Koreans arrived here, however, after the law had been changed by con- gress and the instructions cancelled. The matter was investigated when United States Immigration Commissioner Sargent was sent here and it was decided that Bis- hop and Brewer had acted in good faith and the United States district attorney would, therefore, not prosecute, but this does not prevent private partles from recovering.
