COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 3.—On the eve of the Republican caucus the so-called ! Foraker-Hanna contest over the organiza- tion of the Ohio Legislature is an open battle, with neither Price nor McKinnon assured of the thirty-five votes necessary for the Republican nomination for the Speakership of the House. ‘While McKinnon and Price are claiming thirty-seven votes each their managers, who “'keep books,” are more conservative. | Congressman_Dick, who is director gen- eral for McKinnon and the Hanna fac- tion, says: “We gained two in the declarations ot Binckley of Perry and Fisher of Medina to-day, and we want a couple more.” The Price men concede McKinnon only twenty-nine of what are called first, last and all the time men. But conservative onlookers say that each has thirty-three of that class and that each needs at least two more. George B. Cox, who is the di- rector general for Price, said to-night: “There are still seven doubtful Republi- can Representatives. We need two or three of them, and the others four or ve. ‘While Dick, Cox and others are after recruits thelr lieutenants are ha.flng lll\ e ine. meals and to homes. about the hotels and about the railroads to see that none gets away. Representa- tive Willis turned on his escort to-day and publicly denounced the ‘‘organized esplonage on both sides.” He afterward attempted to start a movement to drop | both Price and McKinnon and take up a | new man for Speaker. Senators Foraker and Hanna both re- | main continually in touch by long_dis- tance telephone with their friende here. ‘While Foraker will have no opposition | for the Republican nomination for Sen- ator, the name of Charles W. Baker of Cincinnati and Judge A. W. Patrick of New Philadelphia will both be presented for the Democratic nomination for Sen- ator, with the odds in favor of Baker. —_— DIES WITHOUT KNOWING OF HIS ADVANCEMENT Richard Leary of the Navy Made Rear Admiral on Day of His Death.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.—Some of the main features of the protocol between the United States and Nicaragua referred to in President Zelaya's message to Con- gress have been made known in recent press dispatches from Managua. But there are many other important features which have not been disclosed, one of these being the complete American juris- diction and the establishment of Ameri- can courts, civil and criminal, throughout a zone six miles wide, extending from ocean to ocean, and_ including the pro- posed canal termini—Greytown on the At- lantic and Brito on the Pacific. The entire policing of this large tract also is placed in the hands of the United States, so that it has the power to pre- serve order and after that to issue judic.al processes extending throughout the zone. Besides the authority of American courts and of the American police in the six-mile zone, the chief features of the protocol are in giving a lease in perpetu- ity of this tract to the United States and at the same time giving an American guarantee that the lndeg‘?ndence, sover- eignty and integrity of Nicaragua shall not be disturbed by the rights thus con- ferred upon the United States. No exact information is obtainable as to the price specified in the protocol as payment to Nicaragua for the grant to this country. It can be stated positively, however, that this price is much less than ‘was expected when the negotiations he- gan, and It is considered by officials as reasonable. It is understood that at the outset the view in Nicaragua was that ,000,000 would be a proper figure for the grant to this country and about $5,000,000 for Costa Rica's -grant. But while there is no information as to the final sum in the protocol, it is known %o be far short of the above figures. As the cesslon takes the form of a perpetual lease, it is probable that the protocol 'n- cludes the feature of an annual rent as part payment. A protocol with Costa Rica identical in form with that with Nicaragua, éxcept in the matter of price and territory leased, has been in course of negotiation, and it is understood that a satisfactory conclu- slontwill be reached with that Govern- ment. MERCHANTS TO ENCOURAGE LARGER TOURIST TRAVEL Association Demands That the Li- censes for Saloonists Near the sfiuaidfio Be Revoked.

Professor Burt Estes Howard of Leland Stanford Jr. University will lectura to- pight before the Economic League at Academy of Science Hall. will be “The Evolution of Economic and Religious Ideas, Education and racy."” His subject ; AMERICANG WILL 'KINDERGARTENS OF GREAT VALUE Elementary Education the Theme at Pacific Grove. PACIFIC GROVE, Jan. 3.—The work of the thirty-fifth session of the California Teachers' Assoclation ended this after- noon. Department work of an important character occupled the morning hours, each session being largely attended. In the kindergarten department Dr. H. V. O’Shea, professor of pedagogy in Wis- consin University, made his farewell ad- dress before the members of the conven- tion, speaking of the kindergarten as an organized factor in elementary education. He saild that the kindergarten in this country is at the crisis of its existence and that in his belief the devotion of its teachers for its methods would earry it through. Dr. C. C. Van Liew of the Chico State Normal School also spoke upon the same subject. Great interest was aroused among the members of the association this morning by the developments of the history de- partment papérs. Unstinted criticism was pronounced against the mnotebook system now obtaining in the State, espe- cially with reference to the requirements for entrance to Stanford University. One of the strongest papers in disapproval of this system was presented by Miss Jordan, teacher of history in the Sal High School. Miss Jordan is a_daughter of Premdent David Starr Jordan ol“%‘n« ford. Professor R. D. Hunt of the Uni- versity of the Pacific and an eminent au- thority on history, addressed the history department on supplement: work In local history as an aid to the study of general history. The afternoon session was called te or- der at 2 p. m., and the first exercise was a demonstration of the methods of teach- ing music in the primary and grammar grades by Milton L. Lawrence of San Jose, the talk being illustrated with songs Tendered by a chorus of 200 children from the Pacific Grove and Monterey schools. The closing business was then taken up, the annual reports of officers and com- mittees being presented and adopted. A noticeable feature of the treasurer’s re= port was a recommendation that the as- sociation take action at the next mv‘ tion to fix a permanent meeting place and that such place be San Fran or Los Angeles. s recommendation was made for financial reasons. A resolution heartily Indorsing the George Washington Memorial Assoclation in its efforts to_establish a great m: university at Washington, but recom- mending that it make no effort to secure funds by contributién from schools, unanimously passed. A resolution dé; ing the attitude of the University of fornia in ng Latin an entrance m quirement to all culture courses was voted down. The following persons were pointed additional members of the Councll of Eduncation in accordance with yesterday’s action, increasing that body from fifteen to twenty-five members: O. W. Erlewine, Sacramento; R. D. Faulk- ner, A. L. Mann, San Francisco; C. E. Keyes, Oakland; C. C. Van Liew, Chico; L. Sandwick, Pacific Grove; E. M. Cox, Santa Rosa; E. Dafley, San Jose; E. C.

The safe was in an adjoining structure and eptrance was effected into this building in a similar way. The combination and handle of the safe were knocked off with a hammer. A hole was drilled into the outer door, filled with dynamite and exploded.
