Ji-Tba oonteat between Mayo Tom I Johnson oC Cleve land and John L. Zimmerman of spring Aeld for the democratic gubernatorial nom lnatlon, although within twenty-four hours of decisive action, Is tonight as rouoh dis puted aa ever. . At tha headquarters of each candidate the most confident claims are given out. Following tha withdrawal' ot Bookwalter as the Johnson candidate for senator, the Zimmerman man Inaugurated a raid on the Johnson ranks, claiming that the Instructions for) Johnson, for gov ernor applied only to the balloting on Wednesday and not to the selection to morrow of members of the committee on credentials, resolutions, eto. Tha Johnson men met this charge by saying it was a confession of weakness and insisted that tha liistruolons applied to tha selection of members of the new state central com mittee and (ho entire organisation of the convention. ' 4 It is still conceded that the one securing a majority of tha committee on credentials tomorrow afternoon will on the following day be nominated for governor, aa there are lit eeata out of the (8) contested and neither candidate can win without having ail of his delegates seated. The Zimmerman men are also making iesperats effort ' to make a break jn tha Johnson ranks because of tha endorsement of ohn H. Clarke of Cleveland, , in plaoa at . Bookwalter, and , la this matter they have tauaad tha Johnson managers some trouble. One , ot the written statsmeatg given out from the Zimmerman headquar ters today chsrges that Johnson first failed to get MelVllle B. Ingaila of Cincinnati to go on his elate for senator, then Mayor Samuel Jones of Toledo, likewise declined and now Bookwalter has refused. Borne of the free silver enthusiasts who are instructed for Johnson for governor, are..: out openly tonight against Clarke for renatof, and the Indies tlons that opposition will ba carried to. tha floor of the convention If the committee on resolutions Includes In It report the in dorsement of Clarke. Zimmerman Makes Trenbl. The Zl i merman men favor a conservative platform, such as 'the party had In Ohio four year ago when John R. McLean headed tha democratic ticket for governor with additions for home rule, denouncing the new Ohio code and favoring reforms In state Institutions. Tha Johnson men de clare for the reaffirmation' of last years platform, when Johnson - had undisputed control of the state convention,' with addl tlonal planks favoring two cents per wills on railways and 'three-cent fares on! street railways, and the referendum. The plat form as well as the ticket' and the" organ isatloh ' for tha next year and everything else depends upon the settlement ot the contested seats and the places of greatest Importance on this occasion are those rep resenting their congressional districts on the committee on credentials. , Johnson Issnea I'ltlmntnm.' CLEVELAND, Aug. It-Regarding tha possibility of the, non-endorsement of candidate for the United States senate by the democratic state convention at Coluro bus. Mayor Johnson said, tonight that lis would irlt upon the endorsement of some man for.. that office and -that It tha con ventlon refused to make such endorsement, ha would withdraw from tha oandldacy for the gubernatorial nomination. Tha mayor stated that tha -reason. for his In sistence upon there being an endorsement by the convention waa to suppress any In sinuatlona that ha (Johnson) would ba candidate for the senate himself In the event ot hla defeat aa a candidate for gov ernor. For weeks there has been a contest f unususl Intensity In the eighty-eight coun ties between Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland and John- L. Zimmerman of Springfield, the two candidates for tha gubernatorial noro lnatlon. to secure, delegates. Both come hero-claiming a majority of the 00 delegates. Both base, their claims on .securing the 146' delegatSs whose seats are contested... These contests will ba settled tomorrow. The preliminary agitation Is ovsr the organlgattoa, of tha convention. It la conceded that control -of .the com mlttee, on credentials v means, control of everything else.. Including the new atata central .committee, that controls the organ isation for the coming presidential year, as well aa the committees on resolutions, rules snd order of business and permanent organisation, all of which are of Im portance at the, present time In. the con test between the Bryan men and the con servatlvee for supremacy. Tha withdrawn of John W. Bookwalter as a candidate (or senatorial endorsement to succeed Henna today advances Zlm merman's - candidacy. Zlmtnernvpn and Bookwalter both reside at Spring Held and It was claimed that the Johnson men had stsrted ths Bookwalter movement so aa to affect Zimmerman's Interests, especially If ths order of business could hsve been fixed so that ths endorsement for senstor would have come before the nomination ot the state ticket. The Johnson men still Insist that thera must be sn endorsement ' for : senator although no one has been named In Book welter's place. The Zimmermen men arc not In faror of tba convention naming any one for senator. Mora Interest Than for Tears. COLUMBUS, O., Aug. JJ.-The close con test between Mayor Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland '' snd John ' K Zimmerman of Springfield for the gubernatorial nomina tion has cause! more Interest In the demo cratic ' state convention this week than for many years, While both claim a ma jority of the 690 delegates, the result de pends on the settlement of contests In volving 141 delegates. These contests are rpeoted to prevent two congressional dis tricts at Cincinnati and at Cleveland from participating In the seleotlon of members of the committees so that the committee on credentials may hove only, eighteen members voting on the first contest that Is passed on. With the custom of taking the contests up In alphabetical order, that of Cuyahoga county would come first and It would likely be decided In favor of Johnson So that -thwre would be nineteen voting on the contest from Qallla, Hamilton and other counties. The preliminary contests extend to all parts of the organisation of tha convention. Johnson says he could not make the race on a Zimmerman platform and Zimmer man says he could not run on a Johnson platform, so both ' are seeking a majority of ths committee on resolutions. Bookwalter Formally Withdraws. John W. Bookwalter, recognised as tha Johnson candidate for United, States sen ator, tonight gave out tha following: Much sieased and r rat I fled as I am at the mention of my name In connection with the nomination of senator this week, aud much as 1 sppreclnte the honor snd the compliment which my friends seek to pay me, I feel It but a matter of Justice to my fellow-democrats of the state and to my self to say that I am not a candidate for such nomination and my name will not be presented to the convention for its con sideration. Mayor Johnson and his manager, Charles P. Balen of Cleveland, Judge W. T. Durbln and W. F. FInley of Kenton, Congressman H. C. Garber of Greenville and others were In conference here today with Bookwalter, but the latter would not reconsider his withdrawal. Bookwalter was accompanied by Charles W. Constantlns of Springfield, and they return home tomorrow. The Johnson men say they still favor senatorial endorsement and that It will be a "free-for-all" race. Among those men tioned for senatorial endorsement are: Melville E. Ingalls, Charles W. Baker and Judson Harmon of Cincinnati, -John H. Clarke and L. A. Russell of Cleveland, Allen W. Thurman, James Kllbourne and ex-Congressman Lents of Columbus, ex Congressman J. A. McMahon of Dayton, ex-Congressman J. A. Norton of TlfBni ex- Congressman A. J. Warner of Marietta Hon. Charea N.

If the enemy can capture Fort Preble or even tha knoll Just to the westward of It the other forts might have to capitulate.

After his conference with the president Mr. Kohlsaat said to a representa tive of the Associated Press that his call had nothing whatever to do with any con templated change in th cabinet. "It litis been rumored," said Mr. Kohlsaat, "that X might be appointed postmaster general, but there Is absolutely nothing in that story. The president contemplates no change In that office. In fact, he deolres that his cabinet phould remain Intact, nt least until the close of the present ad ministration. Personally, ! Co not desire public office and the president has no office In his gift which I would accept." Mr. Kohlsaat did discuae with tho presi dent the subject of fihuncial leglalatlon. For peveral weeks ho has been guthcrlng Information for the president on the sub ject. Ills researches have been both In the east and west, end his net researches ho has laid before the president. "I think some legislation of a remedial character may be laid at the approaching session ot congress," he suld, . "but there Is a wide divergence of opinion among authorities as to what, if anything, ought to be done. The demand for financial legislation comes principally from the east, but even here financiers r not in accord. In tho west our people are not tnlnking ' much about the matter. The west Is wonderfully pros perous and all of our banks have so much money they are discounting eastern com mercial paper every day. The honest judg ment is that whatever, financial legislation is taken should be remedial and very bilef, covering perhaps not mora than twenty-five lines." . , ENGLISH GOLFERS WIN Take Everything; tn Foursomes nt Garden City Links, but Lose In singles. , NEW TORK.
